I'm curious about how this relates to Eco's perspective on childhood. Are his examples just adults in children's clothes? And therefore, is the choice to portray children arbitrary or irrelevant? So I'm curious about how the themes of maturity and the themes of interpretation work together? Is interpretation itself a kind of maturity?

Okay, so what I'm getting is that cultural artifacts are sources for deep meaning and interpretation. I agree and I think Eco agrees. What I'm not getting past the second paragraph is how we're talking about maturity, adulthood, and the interaction between the worlds of adults and children.

In conclusion, music serves as a powerful tool for enhancing mental health andwell-being. It provides personal expression, helping individuals process emotions andexperiences that might be difficult to speak on. Research has shown that listening to music canreduce symptoms of anxiety and depression, promote relaxation, and foster a sense of
So, what does your artifact add to the discussion and what should we do as a result of that? In other words, how does thinking about Ocean's music give us insight into the relationship between childhood and adulthood in ways that are similar to and different from Eco's discussion of Krazy Kat and Peanuts? What do we get from the updates provided by your artifact?

Just like Eco, Frank Ocean uses his platform to spreadmental-awareness but instead of creating a show, he makes music. Ocean puts his emotionaltrauma into lyric form to create a connection with his listeners, “the fact that he could make asong about his hardships and help other people through theirs shows how much of an impact hehas on his fans. I would consider him a role model.
So, once we've discussed Eco more thoroughly, we can draw clearer connections to the music that you want to discuss.

Coming to Terms with Culture
So first, make up an original title, and second: start with Eco and tell me what he's telling us about fiction and children and mental health. Basically, you will want to summarize Eco's argument (not the whole piece, but the main claims).

n the article titled, “On Krazy Kat’ and ‘Peanuts”, by Umberto Eco, Eco relatesemotional struggles to his characters to spread awareness on mental health. The outline of hisarticle focuses on his character's struggles, hoping to give his viewers a sense of understandingand comfort if they relate in any way. In today's society mental health is rising, but people
It probably makes sense to start with Eco and summarize his argument before introducing your cultural artifact and seeing what it adds to the discussion begun by Eco.
In other words, we gotta figure out what Eco is saying and then figure out what that would mean if we applied it to Frank Ocean.

For me, music ismy cultural artifact; it is a mirror to society’s values, struggles, and successes. Everybody listensto music at some point, if it's in the car, while you're studying, or just want to have a good time.Music allows everyone to express their emotions and experiences in a way that words alonecannot. Frank Ocean is one of my favorite artists to listen to; he is amazing at showing howpersonal and thoughtful lyrics can resonate with listeners.
Music is a bit too broad to be thought of as one "artifact," but the artist Frank Ocean could certainly count.

In conclusion, there are many ways to show your creativity, whether it's withstanding upfor yourself, meditating, or taking the time to find yourself with your emotions. Everyone isdifferent, so each one of us will have a new and different way to show our creative aspects.Being able to express and show our creativity will help us thrive and be able to live life to ourfull potential.
Are there actions we should take to apply these lessons? Should we define creativity differently than we did before?
-
In addition, a different article written by Lisa Barrett talks about how and why youremotions are your foundational tools for living.

Reaching deeper in the mind allows people to pushpast the surface level thoughts and find compelling thoughts or arguments. Lynch’s use ofanalogies pushes a clear understanding of his reasoning and logic, and while they may seembasic or undermining, they provide a much more developed and thoughtful message that we asreaders must dig deep to understand

There is no need tochoose only one method. I have found myself using different methods at separate occasions, sobe the growth that not only grows you, but those around you

Meditation, in the eyes of Lynch, is a worthwhile hobby. Thebenefits of meditation are evident, and “the more you meditate and transcend, [your power, edgeand creativity] will grow” (93). While some people may claim that meditation serves no actualpurpose, Lynch contradicts those statements explaining that meditation will not do anything butbenefit you. Lynch pushes that any form of meditation can serve as an enhancer to one’s life
While this is a great discussion of Lynch, it only implicitly connects the piece to the idea of creativity. Let's move forward with that idea.

Schalk,

Lynch, and Lessig shared many different places creativity can befound. It can be made, found and adapted. Creativity fuels innovation, drives progress andexpresses unique perspectives in society. By embracing our creative potential, we can enhancepersonal growth along with the collective potential of society. Each author expressed their owntake on how they see creativity.
One of the things that you're mentioning is the LEVEL at which change needs to occur. For Lynch, the change is PERSONAL, for Schalk, the change is SOCIAL, and for Lessig, the change is LEGAL. What you're contrasting here is OBSTACLES to creativity and how we can address them. This is a cool way to compare projects.
-
Change is not always easy and in this case, may not be entirelyrealistic for such a dramatic shift so quickly. You must understand other people's perspective onthe topic to fully be able to address all sides. Many people, especially those that oppressindividuals like Schalk, might not listen to Lizzo, or do not see the empowerment in heroutreach. In addition, individuals may see what she is doing and continue to oppress her or seewhat she is doing as a point to oppress further. Many people may also not see what Shalk isdoing as empowering, and may see it for what it is: a woman twerking on stage at a concert.While many people were influenced by Schalk, the scale of change she was hoping for was notachieved ultimately due to limited outreach. Schalk was creative with her self expression and itopened up new ways to see creativity around us. Although there were some limits to herperspective, she helped empower many people through taking a stand.

Here is what I'm recommending: R. seems to suggest that mindfulness has two problems: 1) it's overrated as a creative force; 2) it detaches us from our emotions and thus makes us indifferent to problems. The other two authors seem to be "solving" those problems in their own way. Can you put them all together?
Second thing: what to do we do with all this? An applied conclusion gives your audience something to do instead of just information. You can even relate it back to yourself and what you do.

Our own experiences are different from everyone else’s, and just like Ratnayakeconcluded above, our mindfulness methods are unique too. Emotional granularity, as discussedby Lisa Barrett, is an obtainable practice of “experiencing the world, and yourself, moreprecisely.” (Barrett)
The beginning of this paragraph gives us an opportunity to tie the two authors' observations together. How do emotional granularity and mindfulness compete or collaborate with one another?
-
To tie thisprocess into creativity, it can be inferred that without a calm mind, you cannot be creative.

She goes on to talk aboutwhat she teaches her students and how it would not be right if she does not follow what sheteaches outside of her work. It’s allowing her to have a deeper relationship with her students andbond with them over common feelings. Through the article, Schalk uses a lot of words likeself-love, body positivity, pleasure to support her thoughts on self-expression. All of these termsare positive words that represent yourself.

While Lessig’s, Schalk’s, and Chachra’s projects and perspectives may have beendifferent, it is clear that creativity with a lens focusing on passion and creating with a purposerather than creating for a living is present throughout all 3 texts.

Every day is a new day, so go create something and experience joy today.
Nice applied conclusion! It's excellent as-is, but I wonder if we can perhaps extend the lesson very slightly?

Creativity comes in many shapes and forms that can easily be identified. However, themethod one uses to be creative is harder to recognize. In our modern world, creativity seems tocome from being completely original and finding a one-in-a-billion idea that somehow no oneelse has thought of yet. Surprisingly, a lot of creativity comes from recreations and differentperspectives of already existing ideas or models. A significant aspect that makes this kind ofcreativity possible involves the motive of creating. It is often suggested that a lot of creativitycomes from a love for a specific medium and then expressing their creativity through theirmedium not for money, but for the love of the art

Based on the data provided by consumers, it is evident that the majority ofour consumers are college-aged. However, there is one outlier, with oneparticipant reporting an age of 78 years old. This data suggests that ourtarget audience primarily consists of students. To enhance our marketingefforts, we should consider strategies to engage with older generations, whomay become long-term patrons. This shift in marketing approach could helpus broaden our consumer base beyond the student demographic and ensuresustained patronage.

Proposal
So what we're going to need here is a transition from the proposal audience (which is usually assumed to be someone reading it before the study is done--so, in the future) to the report audience (someone reading it after it is done. Why was the study undertaken? What information were you seeking? What opportunities to improve your business did you imagine? What were you hoping for/expecting to find? In another paragraph, you're going to give a quick summary of the report and its findings and how you might use it. These two paragraphs will make up what is called the "executive summary."

While forensic rhetoric is certainly still a role for rhetoric, how seriously is rhetoric diminished by the elimination of its deliberative function? (Revisit the three categories of rhetoric.)

So, some policies that you might also consider: 1) ecology/sustainability/environment stuff; 2) community engagement/philanthropy/charitable giving; 3) participation in larger business or charitable organizations that demonstrate you're an invested player in the animal welfare industry.

Respect and Integrity
You might want to have a major heading called something like "Our Values" and then imagine what those are in addition to respect and integrity. So, would compassion be a value? Kindness? Fairness? Think about what motivates a business like this one.

Summary comment: need quotations for all sections; need internal comparisons between the authors; need a conclusion that discusses how rhetoric is best used/understood. Do that, and you'll have done something pretty cool.

luate how they view rhetoric.I understand this is not complete, my last piece will be on Isocrates: Against the Sophists.
You like the idea of using rhetoric in tandem with another art--suggesting that rhetoric is a method of delivery rather than a means of creating knowledge on its own.
-
Rhetoric is an interesting area of concern. It has people criticizing it so much that youcould arguably say that they “hate” it.
Does this reflect Plato's view? You can connect this point to he Gorgias later when you analyze it.
-
I understand this is not complete, my last piece will be on Isocrates: Against the Sophists.
Isocrates tells us how rhetoric should not be taught, but does he really define it as an art?
This might be a point of expansion in the essay--how does everyone define oratory/rhetoric and how do these definitions compare with one another?
-
It is also known from book one that Aristotle holds a view on rhetoric rather similar tothat of Socrates' definition and reasoning for being against rhetoric.
We're going to want to quote the relevant passages from Aristotle to justify your interpretations.
-
“Gorgias ofPlato”
Google how to cite Plato's dialogues in MLA.
-
Plato, Gorgias, Socrates and Polus are a few philosophers and sophiststhat have displayed adequate knowledge in rhetoric (regardless if they are for or against it), andhave provided extensive information through dialogue or books.
Cool--I like this observation. However, Polus is a character loosely based on a real person, so it's probably helpful to mention that or to attribute the discussion to Plato.

n 1900, in his “Address to the Nations of the World” at the first Pan-African Conference, in London, W. E. B. Du Bois proclaimed that the “problem of the twentieth century” was “the problem of the color-line, the question as to how far differences of race—which show themselves chiefly in the color of the skin and the texture of the hair—will hereafter be made the basis of denying to over half the world the right of sharing to their utmost ability the opportunities and privileges of modern civilization.”
