  • Dilbert and Dogbert in the Information Age 79
    DILBERT AND DOGBERT IN THE INFORMATION AGE 79 Dilbert and Dogbert in the Information Age: Productivity, Corporate Culture, and Comic Art Karen Langlois California State Polytechnic University, Pomona In the cartoon strip of the same name, Dilbert, an engineer, contends with the complexities and challenges of technological change and corporate restruc- turing. The cartoon, a satire on modern corporate culture, criticizes the pervasive influence of the business efficiency movement known as Total Quality Management. The issue of productivity in the post-modern age holds particular relevance for educators at a time when institutions of higher learning seek to restructure themselves in the image of the modern corporation. Introduction In the past decade the cartoon strip Dilbert has become a phenomenon of popular culture. Created by cartoonist Scott Adams, it has become the fastest growing comic strip in America. Dilbert, the cartoon’s protagonist, is a naive, introverted engineer, toiling in the wasteland of American bureaucracy. His sardonic pet, Dogbert, is employed as a part-time management consultant. For the modern employee Dilbert and Dogbert have achieved the status of cultural icons. Confronted with the information revolution of the nineties, a transformation greater in scope than the industrial revolution, these new American (anti)heroes contend with the complexities and challenges of technological change and corporate restructuring. The identification of the public with the plight of the cartoon characters is evidenced by the craze for Dilbert and Dogbert merchandise. In addition to a television show and best selling books, Dilbert mania has created a market for Dilbert and Dogbert apparel, desk art, and dolls.

  • Masculinity in Emo Music a Thesis Submitted to the Faculty of Arts and Social Science in Candi
    CARLETON UNIVERSITY FLUID BODIES: MASCULINITY IN EMO MUSIC A THESIS SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF ARTS AND SOCIAL SCIENCE IN CANDIDACY FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF ARTS DEPARTMENT OF MUSIC BY RYAN MACK OTTAWA, ONTARIO MAY 2014 ABSTRACT Emo is a genre of music that typically involves male performers, which evolved out of the punk and hardcore movements in Washington DC during the mid-80s. Scholarly literature on emo has explored its cultural and social contexts in relation to the “crisis” of masculinity—the challenging of the legitimacy of patriarchy through “alternative” forms of masculinity. This thesis builds upon this pioneering work but departs from its perpetuation of strict masculine binaries by conflating hegemonic and subordinate/alternative masculinities into a single subject position, which I call synergistic masculinity. In doing so, I use emo to explicate this vis-à-vis an intertextual analysis that explores the dominant themes in 1) lyrics; 2) the sites of vocal production (head, throat, chest) in conjunction with pitch and timbre; 3) the extensional and intensional intervallic relationships between notes and chords, and the use of dynamics in the musical syntax; 4) the use of public and private spaces, as well as the performative masculine body in music video. I posit that masculine emo performers dissolve these hierarchically organized masculinities, which allows for a deeper musical meaning and the extramusical signification of masculinity. Keywords: emo, synergistic masculinity, performativity, music video, masculinities, lyrics, vocal production, musical syntax, dynamics. ABSTRAIT Emo est un genre musical qui implique typiquement des musiciens de sexe masculine et qui est issu de movement punk et hardcore originaire de Washington DC durant les années 80.
