Picture From Class

The picture is about Jesus Christ dying on the cross. He died for our sins, and we are forever in His debt. The picture that is shown is showing that the light of heaven is coming down upon Jesus as He is taking His last breaths on the cross. 

This artist named the title of the photo, “Piss Christ”. This changes my whole view on this photo. It makes me feel like His name is being taken for granite. Disrespectful..

The people who were behind this picture, were antichrists and anti-American. They were making this picture and others like it to express their hate for everything holy. They get paid with our tax dollars to make these stupid, disgraceful paintings. There are people trying to rise up against these people. They say, ‘rotten art, leads to a rotten culture’ and they are right. I completely agree with the fact that they need to pull out from the funding of dirty art.

The gov’t should go through a very detailed approval process for them to fund certain artists.

Flux!!

I went to see Flux Pavilion as my beyond class assignment, and it was awesome. Flux Pavilion is a DJ from the UK and he is one of the most popular artists in the dance/electronic world right now. His concert featured 4 DJs and they were pretty good as well. Although one of the acts, Cookie Monsta, was too repetitive, I didn't let that hold me back from having a good time. When Flux came out the place lit up! (literally) He had a laser light show and smoke machines on the stage and it was so awesome. I can't wait to go back to another concert like that and get even more crazy than I did this time. That was my first dance/electronic concert I have ever been to, and it left a great impression on me!!

Lyrical Genius!

I wrote first paper on music, and the way that the lyrics can effect somebody.

It all depends on how you can in the perspective of the singer/band.

The artist takes his music and transforms it into something desirable and worth listening to.

As a musician, I feel like I, as well, must take in the "grabbing people in" perspective.

 

These lyrics are something were reading so enjoy!

 

You saw my pain washed out in the rain
Broken glass, saw the blood run from my veins
But you saw no fault, no cracks in my heart
And you knelt beside my hope torn apart

But the ghosts that we knew will flicker from view
We'll live a long life

So give me hope in the darkness that I will see the light
'Cause oh that gave me such a fright
But I will hold as long as you like
Just promise me we'll be alright

So lead me back, turn south from that place
And close my eyes to my recent disgrace
'Cause you know my call
And we'll share my all
And our children come and they will hear me roar

So give me hope in the darkness that I will see the light
'Cause oh that gave me such a fright
But I will hold as long as you like
Just promise me we'll be alright

But hold me still, bury my heart on the coals
But hold me still, bury my heart on the coals 

 So give me hope in the darkness that I will see the light
'Cause oh that gave me such a fright
But I will hold on as long as you like
Just promise me we'll be alright
