CoolBurst: Case Study

Though unintentional, the mindset of CoolBurst’s CEO Luisa Reboredo is at the center of the company’s stifled creativity. In reading the article it is apparent that Luisa truly cares about the company’s success but does not recognize the signs of anxiety that is obvious in her thought process. As a disclaimer, anyone experiencing Luisa’s situation should immediately contact a professional trained in mental health. While overstressing obsessively about the problem Luisa could not enjoy the art festival which could have sparked many creative solutions to the problem. Failing to exercise self-care in response to her ...

There are several reasons why the annual Burning Man festival is unique among mass gatherings. Held in the Black Rock section of America’s Great Basin desert in Nevada, Burning Man’s 70,000 participants construct a city that houses—and in itself functions as—a participatory performing arts space, a communal spiritual retreat, and a cathartic experience of radical self-expression (Brill 2007). Then, one week later, they tear it all down, pack everything out, and leave no trace behind. It is an anti-market event (Cesewski & Giles 2007) whose participants rely on gift-giving and barter to secure any necessities ...

The Ariekei in China Mieville's Embassytown are a strange species of alien with a strange language. Words are not just words to the Ariekei Hosts but a reflection of reality. As it is described in the book, the Hosts need "a speaker, with intent, with a mind behind the words" for anything spoken in their Language to mean anything at all (p. 55). What is fascinating about this is the fact that Hosts are incapable of lying, because their Language must be an accurate reflection of reality. The most interesting thing about the Hosts' language, though, is given by ...

There was a huge consternation among environmental conservationists as Indian locals killed approximately 5000 animals to commemorate the festival of the new moon, or more locally known as Jyeshtha Amavasya. Last July 3-6, the locals of West Bengali, India killed many animals in the forest of Midnapore. Among these animals, such as species of reptiles and fowls, are protected by the Indian Law. Local conservationists tried to stop the locals from killing these animals, but their efforts were largely futile as they received very little help from the police force who were supposed to help them. Some hunters even ...

Event: Club Skirts Dinah Shore Weekend

Maintenance of ethical principles is essential to the sustainability of the globe. In fact, lack thereof compromises the development of humanity, and this situation could result in unpleasant behavior. With this in mind, it is worth acknowledging the fact that the current controversies associated with the inhumane treatment of animals are justifiable. Specifically, the process of preparing animals for consumption is primarily based on the final presentation to the consumer and not the welfare of the animals. As such, this situation questions the ethical principles of the individuals who consume meat. According to McClelland (4), inhume treatment of animals ...

Introduction

The works that the Chinese created since the Qing Dynasty marked the essence of its iconography. It gave the Chinese artists a specific place and space in world art, as they rendered subjects, materials and objects in a particular detail, and composition. The Qing Dynasty also gave rise to the portrayal of the Taoye tu that was commissioned by the Emperor Qianlong. The artwork particularly emphasized the manufacturing of the porcelain objects, but it emphasized the illustrations that were portrayed as “sequential viewed sets,” thus, it created a set of ordered visual illustrations. In light of this, it would ...

Every nation has some sort of historical trauma. The creepy and full of horror twentieth century did not miss anyone generously awarding each with a bouquet of mass psychosis caused terrible events.

The United States has the largest number of religious groups than any other country in the world. The majority of Americans identify themselves as Christians.

Morality is essential to the stability of a nation or an organization. In fact, lack thereof leads to the development of uncertainty among individuals and this situation compromises peace. With this in mind, it is worth acknowledging the fact that David Foster raises his ethical concerns about the consumption of lobsters. Precisely, he does not present his argument in a way that castigates this action. Rather, he poses a question that challenges one’s emotional and logical appeal. He mentions, “Is it all right to boil a sentient creature alive just for our gustatory pleasure?” This statement forms the ...

Modern music and classical music: two different directions, two different fates, different range of listeners, different influences. These two genres of music are completely unlike each other. Nowadays people have their right to choose what they believe is best for them. Mostly, they are not influenced by the crowd when it comes to their personal preferences. Each person has his own tastes and it is normal. Someone is ready to listen to Mozart, Schubert and Bach for weeks, and someone finds himself in all day long listening to "Queen", "Nirvana" or Depeche Mode. But why do people refer to ...

I attended the Western Kansas Orchestra Festival concert on September 16th, 2015 at Garden City. The concert consisted of over 500 string players who were grouped into four main orchestras and was conducted by Cody Toll.

Corporate management in events companies is, of course, in the best position to make business decisions consistent with the growing awareness of sustainability issues. However, other corporate stakeholders can also become engaged when necessary to assure that their ...

Sufism, simply put, is Islamic mysticism. Sufism is also popular by the name Tasawwuf in the Arab world.

Trinidad and Tobago is one of the most multi-ethnic islands of the planet. The descendants of African and European settlers formed a culture of "black Trinidadians", while the descendants of mixed marriages often call themselves as French Creoles, although there are Spanish, Portuguese, Scottish and English roots present in their ancestry. As a result, a mixture of different groups there formed a motley multicultural nation, which is often called Trinidadian, although it is based on the nations and culture from almost all over the globe.

Define the word autochthones in your own words and how it is related to the Athenians/Athens. Why was this concept so important to the Athenians and how did they demonstrate this belief in either art or architecture? Give me at least one example Autochthones refers to the people who are regarded as the original residents of a land/territory/country. This is so much different from the settlers who came afterwards to find the original inhabitants. This term is quite related to the Athenians, who lived between 5th and 4th Century, claiming to have the pride of existing as an autochthonous ...

Electronic Dance Music festivals did not start off as it looks and feels today. Electronic Dance Music first began as an underground rave movement and were mostly small private affairs. The locations were often kept secret and were held in large, abandoned warehouses or any large, free and open space. What was underground in the 1980’s soon became a legitimate and huge music scene in the late 1990’s and 2000’s. This was a result of the change in nature of the genre as well as the possible revenues it could generate when legitimized. These new festivals ...

We realized that the Sun is not unique and there are hundreds of billions of stars in the galaxy, which are brighter ...

However, even in Africa witchcraft has changed significantly from what it was in the distant past. The following essay will examine both European and African ...

If we want to comprehend and control the ethical conduct within a business organization it is important that we understand how people behave in general.

Leadership is invaluable in enforcing these guidelines. According to, Ethics and Leadership, there are three things that will benefit a leader in influencing ethical behavior in an organization: 1) understanding ethics, 2) being ...
