Sonic Complements to my Practicum Paper

Thanks for responding to my invitation,  this will be worth your extra time!

Following are a few audio-visual resources to enrich your encounter with the ideas in my paper:

1.   A song which laments that spoken words often do not carry the interior personal truths they are meant to carry.     "Sweet Nothing" Florence Welch, performer and  Calvin Harris, writer



2. Dramatic enactment of Mark Antony's speech.  Note his pauses and invitations for audience reflection, response and bodily movement, as well as where his own body goes as he progresses through his speech.  Note the visual and textual objects he uses as rhetorical aides: Caesar's will, Caesar's cloak.
