I took this photo in Dublin, Ireland a few years ago.
Content of material represented through literature,
art and music contains the linguistic configurations associated with language
in addition to visual and auditory stimuli:
In literature, content consists of
language, represented by words on a page that convey meaning to the audience.
Artistic content varies from materials, such as paint, rock, metal, fabric, or
other physical substances, with the subject matter originating in the human
experience.
Musical compositions include content that incorporates any form of
resonance to which the auditory mechanism responds.
For instance, thematic representation of creative
expression incorporates the history, language and culture of the artist
in relation to individual purpose of expression with an audience. A musical
composition contains a specific theme. This theme can then repeat every time a musician performs the piece.
However, the theme will elicit variations based on instrumentation, acoustics,
and musicians actively attempting to recreate the original sound.
A new aurally
thematic expression results from this interpretation. Likewise, a work of art
will receive the eyes of multiple viewers. Each person adapts his/her life
experience (historicity) to the interpretation of the rendered artistic theme, thus altering
the original thematic construct of the artist. Hence, an artist's theme is in a constant
state of evolution, no matter which art form has been presented. (Lakatos
