Furthermore, Adolf Loos he goes ahead and develops an aesthetic purism which clearly elaborates his reasons ...

Introduction

There are environmental chemical processes which require light to react. These processes are called photochemical reactions. Photochemical reaction is commonly initiated due to the absorption of solar energy or light. When molecules absorb energy in the form of light, the atoms are converted in a transient excited state (Larson & Weber, 1994). This transition state or excited has completely different physical and chemical properties with the initial state of the molecule. The excited states also have more tendencies to react since they are considered stronger acids and stronger reductants that the initial state of the molecule. The excited state of ...

Program Music

Program music refers to a kind of music that is creative in nature (Cooper, 2008). Music describes a situation in a narrative way. Liszt introduced this term by describing a program as an added description to the music to draw the attention of the listener to a poetic idea. It adds value to music because listeners receive it in the form of program notes, which brings a mutual relationship with the music. Program music continues to bring an effect on film music in cases where this draws the latest techniques of romantic music.

Levers that set the wheels of social change in motion often seem banal and insignificant from a modern perspective.

A century later, the uncanny growth of the cane-based product had made it an irreplaceable commodity that would saturate the British market and lead to a sea change in Western Europe’s economic framework. The means by which sugar was produced and financed helped to revolutionize the very principles upon which English ...
