    Distinctive visual images have the power to influence the understanding of particular worlds through the pathos evoked by the experiences of others. This notion is effectively portrayed through John Misto’s play “The Shoe-Horn Sonata” and Shane Koyczan’s TED Talk, “To This Day…For the Bullied and Beautiful”. The audience is emotionally stimulated by the dehumanising attitude and treatment towards others in their unique worlds, the imbalance of power. However, they also enlighten the power of…

    Upon inspection of Exodus and the studying of Egyptian theology, one can draw many lines connecting the two. The primary connection is that of an attack on the gods of Egypt. There are a few varying views on the way that they are connected, but whichever way one decides upon, the connections are obvious.
