  • WEGART NOVINKY DECEMBER 2008 – 2. Časť
    WEGART NOVINKY DECEMBER 2008 – 2. čas ť Autumnist (predtým Abuse) – The Autumnist (Deadred) Po štyroch rokoch prichádza autor kritikou i posluchá čmi ceneného opusu The Great Outdoors s novým albumom. Zárove ň prichádza s novým pseudonymom The Autumnist . V tvorbe Abuse sme boli zvyknutí na kríženie rôznych hudobných prvkov a nie je to inak ani tu. Nápad da ť v jednej piesni dohromady reggae rytmiku, pseudo-klarinet, operu a val čík znie prinajmenšom podozrivo, ale tento nezvy čajný neporiadok je na novom albume použitý nenápadne, rafinovane a úplne funk čne. Všetky prvky tejto podivuhodnej koláže sú podriadené až takmer pies ňovej forme skladieb a, ako bolo už u Abuse zvykom, starostlivo vystavanej atmosfére. The Autumnist využíva ove ľa menej samplingu, jadro rytmiky tvoria živé bicie a basgitara, pribudlo množstvo true-analogových syntezátorových melodických oblúkov. The Autumnist sa pohybuje v akomsi bez časí, kde sa jeho staromilské maniere - fúkacia harmonika, trúbka, zvonkohra alebo akordeón – stretávajú s nadšením pre sú časnú hudbu. To platí o takmer dubstepovo zafarbenej skladbe The Shore, v ktorej autor znovu spolupracuje s hos ťujúcou vokalistkou Tracy Miller, ale aj o zvyšku albumu, kde dostávajú priestor glitche, naivné grime zvuky či post-rockový chlad. Máme v predaji obmedzený po čet limitovanej edície s odznakom a 4 nálepkami. Album oficiálne vychádza v januári 2009. Formát: CD Cena: 350 Sk (11,62 €) Kat. č.: DRL010-2 Johann Johannsson – Fordlandia (4AD) „Dielo ohromujúcej krásy.“ (Q) „Jóhannssonova najambicióznejšia a najdotiahnutejšia nahrávka doposia ľ.“ (Rock Sound) Nový album islandského hudobného skladate ľa kombinuje viaceré inšpira čné zdroje – vzletnú grandióznos ť predchádzajúceho albumu „IBM 1401, A User’s Manual“ (niektoré skladby boli opä ť nahrávané so 60-členným orchestrom v Prahe), intímny charakter albumu „Englab ırn“ ako i emocionálnu h ĺbku a krásu Góreckého tretej symfónie (bez apokalyptických podtónov).

  • Transphobia in the Netflix Series When They See Us
    © 2021 JETIR June 2021, Volume 8, Issue 6 www.jetir.org (ISSN-2349-5162) Transphobia in the Netflix Series When They See Us. Sreeparvathy M. S. Student, Int. M.A English Department of English and Languages Amrita Vishwa Vidyapeetham, Kochi Campus, India Dr. Sreelakshmi N. Assistant Professor (Sr. Gr.) and Research Guide Department of English and Languages Amrita Vishwa Vidyapeetham, Kochi Campus, India Abstract: This рарer fосuses on transphobia and how the character Marci Wise in When they see us lie victim to transphobia. Transphobia comes from people harassing or discriminating transgender mentally and physically because of the fact that they are uncomfortable or scared with their gender identities. For these people, or transphobes, any gender other than a cis-male of cis-female is wild and out of their imaginations. It has been found that transphobia can even create discrimination towards transgendered people in many ways of them being denied of jobs loans, housing, or health care just because of the fact that their gender identity is not matching up to the norms. It does not help the fact that transgenders are always on the look out for getting attacked, much like what happened to Korey Wise's sister, Marci wise in When They See Us. Some of the mental health issues that transgenders in common faces are paranoia, living in constant fear, isolation, depression, self hate, hopelessness, suicidal thoughts, and self disgust. As times goes on, the person would feel sad; disconnected from everything and everyone, an emptiness began to settle in their mind. In the fourth episode of When They See us, the viewers get a glimpse into the life of Korea Wise's transgender sister, Marci Wise.
