visualization This project will require you to use all the techniques we have covered in class so far. Download this adjacency list (Links to an external site.). It represents a sample of the Enron email dataset. You can open this file by going to the File menu in gephi, selecting open, and then selecting this file. Your goal is to write a 1500-2000 word paper about this network. Describe interesting features, important people, relationships, etc. This is not something you can do just by looking at the structure – you will need to analyze content as well. That means researching who these people are, what role they played in the organization, and what interactions they had. Your visualization is not part of those 2 pages. You should provide a deep investigation into this network. Who are the central people? What is their role in the organization? How do you know that? What is their role in the network (e.g. what kind of messages are they sending? to whom?) What are the big clusters? What does each represent? How did you…
Compare and Contrast the Representation of Death in J.M. Barrie’s Peter Pan, Seamus Heaney’s ‘Mid-Term Break’, Belloc’s ‘Matilda’ and McCrea’s ‘In Flanders Field.’ Peter Pan, ‘Mid Term Break’, ‘Matilda’ and ‘In Flanders Field’, albeit diverse in subject matter and style, are in many ways connected by the pervading theme of mortality on which the foundation of each text rests. Notions of mortality and immortality are juxtaposed throughout Barrie’s fantasy Peter Pan where the reader is introduced to a paradoxical story of a boy who is dead but refuses to grow up. Seamus Heaney’s ‘Mid Term Break’ and LT. Col. John McCrae’s ‘In Flanders Field’ take the subject of death from personal experience where death is treated as tragedy. Belloc’s Matilda looks at death in an amusing and exaggerated manner in his cautionary tale that typified didactic writing in the Victorian era. Although the depiction of death varies in all four texts, with the exception of Peter Pan, all the writers illuminate a sense of justice and injustice, or unfairness in pre-mature death in their works, whereas, Barrie’s Peter Pan echoes…
The modern writers Among the subjects which have been treated most frequently in literature, death has been part of them, commonly as a plot device, symbol, or a theme. It has been one of the crucial elements for modern writers, dramatists as well as novelists. Interweaved with the literature origin itself and the human consciousness on mortality, it has provided an Impetus for reflecting on the meaning, causes and the nature of life. And, while death treatments have been varying depending on the authors, researchers have observed in modern works, whether for stage, prose fiction, or in verse; a clearly defined attitudes towards the topic which has nearly a universal interest. The modern writers have, in most of their works presented death as an ultimate dilemma, and one which provokes terrible concerns as it gives an avenue towards authentic and self-discovery. Similarly, death has also been perceived within the wider context, to be part of natural cycle of both decay and restoration, or taken as a source of amusement, chosen for a humorous conclusion by black comedy writers and absurdist…
Martin Luther King Jr Martin Luther King Jr is one of the greatest personalities in US history. The King Jr vision was to have a non-racial society where people were treated equally and allowed to live their lives. Martin Luther King Jr actively participated in the battle for civil rights for the betterment of the society. His continuous efforts positively impacted my life. The king observed non-violent methods to proceed with his protests. A good example is the bus boycotts were under the King’s influence; the civil rights movement achieved respect and attention. This act has taught me to use lenient and non-violent methods while advocating for better treatment or rights. The King used inspirational speeches to oversee civil right victories. A good example is the bus boycott where the civil rights movement and the King’s influence gained respect and attention. The King was responsible for passing voting and civil rights for the African Americans. The acts transformed the American law, and African Americans were now treated equally with the whites. Dr. King’s mountaintop words shook me out of my…
Mozart Symphony no. 40 in G minor K. 550, first movement Mozart Symphony no. 40 in G minor K. 550, first movementThe first part of the project is to make a structural diagram that clearly shows the major sections and themes of the piece, their measure numbers, their keys, and their proportions. The diagram should be as detailed as possible (you should account for every modulation, but not every tonicization). Once you have diagrammed the piece you should have a good understanding of its form. At that point you should make an outline of the points you want to discuss in the written paper. The second part of the project is a short (3-4 pages) prose desсrіption of various aspects of the piece. Part of the process of analysis is knowing what questions to ask about a piece – in other words figuring out what is important in a particular piece. What is important to discuss in the analysis of one piece might not be important for another piece. You must determine for yourself what is important to discuss in…
Musical Elements in Eminem’s Song “Not Afraid” The song I have identified for this analysis is “I’m Not Afraid” by American hip-hop artist Eminem. The song is categorized under hip-hop. It is a rap song, and it is a common scenario to consist of parts, where the singer raps and other parts that present the chorus.

Through the variations within the repeats, the song has been made a masterpiece. Eminem has used different musical elements to enhance the message and quality of the song.

When Peony Pavilion meet with Leehom Wang’s Zai Meibian Leehom Wang’s “Zai Meibian” is the representative of pop music, while Tang Xianzu’s “the Peony Pavilion” is the representative of Kunqu opera. This essay evaluates what happens when the two musical, artistic meet and how they promote cultural and musical values. Based on the artistic perspective, the two concepts are connected with “youth.” For instance, the Kunqu has been “re-juvenile,” which shows that it’s closely related to the state’s economic and institutional rescue support and the efforts of a large number of cultural workers at home and abroad (Zhang & Cao, 2018). On the other hand, “Peony Pavilion” has drawn the distance from the common people, especially young people, with the charm of “youth.” Based on aesthetic functions, both artists can be perceived to be passionate. Perhaps, the aesthetic function of pop music mainly refers to the aesthetic sense in psychological and even spiritual sense, which is manifested in the release of emotions, such as the joy of body and mind, the cultivation of sentiment, and the improvement of aesthetic…
beyond partisanship, unpopular politicians are using the media to win In the article, Illing argues that beyond partisanship, unpopular politicians are using the media to win. Today, the media overwhelms the public with information, some accurate and others fake, leading to a sense of nihilism. People feel a sense of meaninglessness because when there is so much conflicting information about an issue, it becomes easier to give up on the idea that the truth will ever come out. Illing adds that the influx of both accurate and conflicting information is deliberately “manufactured.” Politicians have mastered the art of saturating the media with misinformation, which minimizes its ability to expose the truth. The strategy is to create great cynicism around the truth so that it becomes almost impossible for institutions such as the traditional media and modern media to unearth the truth. With so much confusing information going around, the public becomes convinced the truth is “unknowable.” Similarly, Coppins claims that the Trump re-election campaign will largely be based on targeted misinformation to the public. Specifically, the use of social media…
