not everything. There is also the sound film.” Thus explained the French filmmaker René Clair in 1929. With this statement Clair was challenging us all to push the boundaries of sound design in films. From the primitive synchronization experiments of Lee de Forest and Thomas Edison to state-of-the-art Dolby Digital 10.2 surround sound‚ there are no boundaries for creating a virtual deluge of sound. Even though one is tempted to hypothesize about the future of sound design‚ it is only through an educated

There are three major themes present in The Sound and the Fury. They are the themes of good versus evil‚ loss‚ and love. Throughout the whole novel we can see that "Quentin is striving for the condition of tragedy for the Compsons"(Hoffman 86)‚ while Benjy is doing the opposite. Dowling’s opinion on page 114 is that Benjy is seen as a Christ figure. This is evident because he acts like an innocent child due to his handicap. Along with the whole Quentin versus Benjy theme there is a sense of light

A Sound of Thunder is a great story written by Ray Bradbury‚ however‚ Nethergrave is an even better story written by Gloria Skurzynski. Though both of these stories are science fiction‚ I enjoyed reading Nethergrave more than Sound of Thunder‚ the story has more of a unique feature to it‚ seeing as it is not set in the future and most science fiction stories are set in the future like A Sound of Thunder. Also the imagery in Gloria’s story grabs my attention unlike in Sound of Thunder. Both of these

Already‚ the sun’s contribution to human energy needs is substantial — worldwide‚ solar electricity generation is a growing‚ multibillion dollar industry. But solar’s share of the total energy market remains rather small‚ well below 1 percent of total energy consumption‚ compared with roughly 85 percent from oil‚ natural gas‚ and coal. Those fossil fuels cannot remain the dominant sources of energy forever. Whatever the precise timetable for their depletion‚ oil and gas supplies will not keep up

The author’s smooth word choice complements the burgeoning love between Shinji and Hatsue‚ the two main characters. Mishima’s style also accentuates many instances of situational irony between the two young lovers and is only one of the many elements he uses in his composition. The Sound of Waves is a love story about Shinji and Hatsue and how they conquer
