The Medium Is The Massage Research Report


 For society, the truly meaningful and valuable "information" is not the content transmitted by the media in various times, but the nature of the communication tools used in this era, the possibilities it creates and the social changes it brings. For example, how does Orff's music education  philosophy affect the music education from 1924 to now?

Orff’s belief that expressing thoughts and emotions is the instinctive desire of human beings, which is naturally revealed in the form of language, singing (including musical instrument performance), dance and so on. Music is the inherent ability of man. So, he encourage his students to display their creativity through natural response to music.


All in all, Orff spread his ideas though the Counter School, his music, his drama performances, and his percussion instruments. All these are successful and show his belief in children's music education to the public. People who attend his school, his music drama, and his percussion instruments will be affected and pay attention to their natural intuitive in music.

    I'm getting to my commenting late (sorry), but, as a music major, I was really interested in your presentation! Your introduction to his education style reminded me of a concept called 'participatory music' (where music making is structured to allow anyone to participate at their level), which is used often to analyze non-Western music practices. It made me wonder if he got these ideas from a specific music culture and if he credited these practices as an inspiration.

The Global Village‘s Backside.

The Video The Instagram did hid the ad about Blurb from me. However, this is enough to prove that instagram and blurb share the data of consumers and users on both sides. As it literally meaning, it's hidden, it's gone on my ins, but that doesn't mean the leakage of my personal privacy has stopped. I always see the advertisements when shopping or searching on other websites. This reminds me of a word: big data. Big data can push you a lot of the same or similar things according to the keywords you search and read. Some apps even share data, so that you can see conditioner ads on other websites after you buy shampoo on one website. With the global popularity of the network, the network eliminates the time and space between people all over the world. Facebook, Messenger, instagram, zoom, wechat, all kings of emails... Even if you need to contact Party A on the other side of the world, you can still communicate quickly and conveniently through the network. Because of this conv

Jingquan's Flicker posts

Guess what's on the right.                  The environment as a processor of information is propaganda (McLuhan, 142). Nowadays the medias only want to show the information they can make profit with. Most of them are personal showing off, or are including commercial or political purpose. Some even has strong personal perspective, and the bad thing is one people can be none bias when expressing their social values. If we only observe information provide by others but not thinking. We will lose our own point of view. So, it is important to keep awake, thinking if the information is propaganda or not.             For my work, I took about 500 photos. Then I found my topic: the natural and humanistic art embellishment of my life. I formed my own point of view after obervating on campus, along the street in downtown, in the woods by the river, and in the community nearby. You can have your own understanding after looking at these photos. I won't speak my views that might mislead

IMAGE & INTENTION: A MESSAGE WITHOUT A CODE

   I selected this photo when I was organizing my photos. It doesn't have textual message. SO,  it is doubtless necessary to go back to partially illiterate societies, to a sort of pictographic state of the image. Image Illustration: ➡️ Symbolic message: an old garden. (A lot of plants in pots, wild cats, and concrete ground). An old garden with mice. ➡️ Connoted message: The garden was highly possibile built in the 1950s, and it is located in an area most likely in southern China. The manager of the garden was most likely elderly. The largest plant, it is called sago palm whose academic name is Cycas Revoluta . It is wildly planted in southern China, or in southern Japan, the Philippines and Indonesia.  Sago palm's HISTORY BACKGROUND : During China's economic difficulties (1958-1962), when there was a famine in many places, farmers in the area where the sorrel originated dug up the roots of the tree to remove the toxic ingredients and then made starch for consumption . T
