The New Journalism

It is a style characterized by telling a story with a sense of reality but using fiction techniques. The writer's topic is aimed to inform whatever issue he intents to. It is important to mention that the New Journalism is a resemblances between fact and fiction.( Michael Wood 1). Fiction techniques are used by the writer to make the reading very provocative. This style was found in magazines such as The Rolling Stones, New York Magazine, The New Yorker between others. This style was not intended to be found in newspaper. But lets analize the main characteristics:

Scenes.

Telling the story using scenes rather than historical narrative as much as possible

Dialogue.

Conversational speech and not statements

Point of view.

All the scenes presented using a particular character

Details.

Status life of the character, it is important to detail their behaviour, possessions and his surroundings

In sum, a very interesting style that mantains elements of reporting following the facts accurately.

ABSTRACT

Graffiti-spraying, littering, and other forms of disorder in a neighborhood promote further bad behaviour.

According to a group of researchers in the Netherlands, a place that is covered in Graffiti,and dirty or messy makes people feel uneasy. Kees Keizer and his colleagues at the University of Groningen deliberately created the setting as part of a series of experiments designed to discover if signs of vandalism, litter accumulated could change the way people behave.

The experiment consisted in creating a perception of disorder in an alley that is used to park bicycles.

A wall was painted with graffiti and inside a small are, some garbage was left, creating a condition of disorder. The researchers posted a sign prohibiting graffiti, so that it would not be missed by any one that the place was being monitored. All the bikes then had fliers promoting a non existing sports shop attached to their handlebars. This needed to be removed before a bicycle could ridden. When owners returned they litter the fliers on the floor with no culpability.It was the conclusion after the research found out that 66 percent of the total 80 bicyclists did it compared with the 33 percent in the non graffiti-scenario.

Cubism: An artistic movement in France beginning in 1907 that featured surfaces of geometrical planes. Cubism was a 20 th century style pioneered by Pablo Picasso and Georges Braque, that revolutionized European painting and sculture. It is important to mention that the term derived from a reference made to geometric schemes and cubes by the critic Louis Vauxcelles in describing painting exhibited in Paris by Braque in 1908. It is more generally applied not only to work of this period by Braque and Picasso, but also to a range of art produced in France during the later 1900s, the 1910s and the early 1920s and to variants developed in other countries. Personally I do not like this style.
