In my final piece of writing, I have chosen to incorporate linguistic, auditory, visual, and spatial into the essay. The overall idea that I am going to push for is that beauty has purpose and makes humans better. The structure I am going to set my essay into will be segments that each approach art in a different form. I believe that with this unique structure, it will help me in focusing my ideas in an effective way. There are many different ways that I am going to incorporate these pieces of media into my essay. I am going to set the mood and allow the reader to feel an emotion by inserting a picture that relates to what I am saying. I will also color specific words in the text to devote more meaning and bring attention to the main ideas. In terms of auditory, I am hoping to incorporate a song that will help provoke emotions and guide the reader throughout the text. The use of media and forms of communication is a great way to open up and allow a reader to connect with the points you are trying to make. I have been spending a considerable amount of time searching for links and videos as I want to have strong modes of communication.

My Outline:

Art is a way to see deeper meaning. In one paragraph I want to talk about the true beauty that lies within art, and how it it viewed by others. I am planning on talking about what I believe is beauty as well as what society perceives beauty as. I am going to hopefully insert an image of nature or what should be appreciated more as beautiful. The use of an image will allow the reader to see something “beautiful” and develop a concept on beauty.

Art keeps us grounded. This idea I am planning on elaborating and connecting with my childhood. The use of healing drums and music therapy helped me in staying positive as well as relaxed when I was sick. Here I plan to incorporate a beat from drums or even a soothing song. I think this will allow a reader to really feel the emotions through the song, and It would aid me in presenting an aspect of beauty to the reader in a effective way.

Schiller’s viewpoint upon art is that its beauty is hidden within. He talks about art needing some sort of balance in order to get full potential. I wanted to connect this with Aaron and Stephen’s song. Here I want to insert a video clip from the song and develop my ideas around the meaning and emotions that are showed in the video.
