Has your knowledge from this class changed the way you listen to music now or at all?

This class has exposed me to more art forms then I could have thought of. I was taken to where each art form started and that has been the biggest takeaway from it this semester. I enjoyed seeing all of the different types and forms of art and especially where they came from. The origination of a new art is always very interesting. A lot of times, the art has not caught on right away with society. This made me realize new ways and new forms of art may take time to catch on with the general public and society.
As far as my music taste goes, I think they have stayed the same for the most part. I am aware of the genres I like and can listen to. If anything has changed about my music tastes, it would be my openness to new music forms and genres. Even if it isn't new music, I think I am more open now to listen to music I never used to listen to before. Music is very mood specific and I think that depending on the mood I am in will determine what song is playing on my phone.

I liked todays class topic on music. I like a pretty big variety of music and genres. I don't have one particular favorite genre as this depends on my mood. I have playlists on Spotify for all my moods and activities. I have a workout playlist, driving playlist, and even a party playlist.
With summer approaching, I had to choose this song that Luke Bryan recently came out with. This song puts me in a summer mood. The music video is great as well. I enjoy the lyrics and I also enjoy the music video that is paired with it. Also with Luke Bryan currently hosting American Idol, I feel it is very suiting for me to use him as my favorite song right now. His music genre is country but I feel like it is a top 40/country song due to Luke Bryans fame.
On a side note, Luke Bryan is who got me into liking country music. I saw him in concert and also watch him on American Idol. He is also currently the highest paid country music star now.
Here is the link to the video.

3 Broadway Shows Post
3 Broadway Shows Post
For this assignment we had to watch 3 different broadway shows. The first video I watched was from Wicked. I saw this show years ago in NYC. I loved this show. It was a very enjoyable show to watch. I also saw the passion in the actors as they were up on stage. The second clip I watched was from The Lion King. I never saw this show on broadway but I don't think I want to. After seeing the latest Lion King movie, I think thats the best way to experience the story. The theatrical experience of the new Lion King is way better than any live performance of it. The third and final clip I watched was from Grease. I have seen Grease 1 and Grease 2. I think this time around, I enjoyed the broadway show better. The experience was better because Grease is such a musical experience.
Overall, I think they were all great but have the best viewing experience in live or cinema style. It's just dependent on the show.

Todays class was very cool. It was about robots and technology. Robots are a big deal in the modern world. Especially in commercial and industrial settings. Robots are a part of big business and making a lot of hard tasks simple. I believe that robots are going to replace a lot of jobs in the near future. Whether it's robots or automating everyday tasks with computers, everything seems to be replaceable at some point by a computer. I have been seeing a lot of ads for robots that cook in restaurants. The robots are able to grill and fry. They have temperature sensors to be able to grill meats perfectly. The technology is incredible. This can be very useful in burger joints or steak houses when the meat temperature is asked upon ordering your food. I was also on a cruise last summer and they had a robotic bartender that could make any drink you entered in on an iPad. The future of automation and robot technology is inevitable.
