In this society I am a firm believer that a criminal should

Each occurrence he dealt with (a young woman terrified on a deserted street, the faint sound of car doors locking as he walks past an intersections, his workplace mistaking him for a burglar) resulted in an uncomfortable, threatening situation for his "victim(s)"

The architecture built during different times and circumstances all tell a story, and it’s those “stories” that will be explored in this essay. If one looks closely enough, one can extract all those stories from each and every building block.

Wendell Berry’s called Bringing it to the table on Farming and Food is a short collection of essays mainly written from the 1970s through 1990s.

a stage prop? I will be discussing how the functions of authentic art works change into props and visual aids in Exhibition culture as opposed to being prized and valued pieces. I will be referencing Benjamin .W’s essay ‘The work of art in the era of mechanical reproduction’. The essay will aid me in unpacking a film called The Da Vinci Code.
