Introduction

The Brightline is a railway system that takes its passengers to and from metropolitan areas of Florida such as West Palm Beach, Ft.Lauderdale, and Miami.

When I watch Netflix, I think "oh my gosh they are not social distancing" but then I realize that there was a time in which this pandemic didn't exist. This helps me realize that I won't spend my whole...

Paradigm Shift Essay Ideas

The rise of Internet Radio. Today, when we listen to music it usually comes from a streaming app such as Spotify, Pandora, or Tidal, but how did we get here? In my essay, I will review how the rise of the smartphone and the fall of music players such as the iPod or MP3 contributed to the creation of Internet Radio. I will review what made the iPod popular in the first place and how the integration of capabilities smartphones contributed to the fall of the handheld music player. Furthermore, I will discuss what made the smartphone so revolutionary and how did this contribute to the rise of Internet Radio. I will also discuss how the accessibility of apps publicized Internet Radio. The Origin of Modern and Contemporary Art I also thought about writing about the shift from realism to modern art starting with the creation of the daguerreotype.
