I have to be honest. I found this lecture hard to follow as i could not see any relevance to Graphic Design. Yes you could make a picture from sound using the chords or the image of the music notes but i think thats more common-sense. I get the idea of people challenging reality through sound and film and again i get where the lecture was going but i would like to of seen it linking more to Graphics. Anyway here is the lecture...
Paradigm
Paradigm is used to describe experiences beliefs and values that effects your personal perception of reality. The phrase 'Paradigm Shift' is used to describe a change in how a group or society goes about in understanding/organising reality.
Classical Paradigm
- Story
- Film
- Image
Realism, Symbolism, Aestheticism, Expressionism, Formalism, Fordism and The Residue of the Decadents.
Realism - The move towards anti-myth within the 18th and 19th Century.
Symbolism - The reaction from realism/naturalism within abstraction which was viewed as more interested in Dreams, Spirituality and imagination.
Aestheticism - European art movement in the late 19th Century that emphasised authentic values.
This section I found Interesting. That Realism could be a driving force behind a design/ piece of music or film.

Gregorian Chant
Within Gregorian Chant, Woman and boys were not allowed to preform or be apart of the group
Sonic Avante- Garde (The Rise of Spring 1948)
This era of music shows great similarities to soundtracks from films today. The build up gives great emphasis to a dramatic scene that many films have adapted and used.
Charles Ives (Central park in the Dark)
Melo tune that has tendencies to give the view of an Ominous and dark feeling.
John Cage
Believed that sounds all around could be called music. During a performance he sat for 4 minutes 33 seconds playing nothing, allowed the audience to hear the noise around them.

Collage
1912, Papier collee and Charcoal on paper - Georges Broque
1912 - Compotier avec fruits, violon at verre - Pablo Picasso
1914, The sunblind - Juan Gris
1914, Free word Painting - Patriotic Festival, pasted paper charcoal, ink and gouache on board - Carlo Carra
This collage (Free word Painting) is my favourite, due to the layout and colours used. It almost looks like a vinyl record but also gives the feel that it is wooden made.
- Metric
