ENO: MY LIFE IN THE BUSH OF GHOSTS ALBUM
AMERICA IS WAITING, 1
986
This piece was really interesting. There appears to be a sound sampling of eighty styles rap music with small inclusions of someone stating America is waiting throughout the clip. Then there is an inclusion of other styles of music within the clip followed by someone stating Taking it again. This continues throughout the entire clip. It is interesting that they used the sound samplings to implicate something specific to the sounds. Each sound appears to be of different styles of music with the sound of an individual hinting at the longing of America for something new, unlike the seemingly lack of will within the current material.

FROM THE ALBUM, TELECOMMUNICATION BREAKDOWN
This was humorous to me in so many ways. The use of popular imagery such as the musical artist, actors, news, and other sources was really interesting. The sound samplings were specific to one purpose of illustrating alarm and forceful and harmful language and actions and at times weapons. It was really interesting, I felt il lat ease with the materials used and I believe the purpose of it was to cause that emotion so that the individual watching can become aware of the subliminal methods used by media to portray messages that are forceful in their own way.
