  • Brisbane Comedy Festival Returns in 2020
    MEDIA RELEASE Tuesday 26 November 2019 BRISBANE COMEDY FESTIVAL RETURNS IN 2020 Brisbane Comedy Festival enters its second big decade in 2020, playing in more venues, welcoming more international stars, promoting more local talent and bringing more laughs than ever before. A highlight of the international comedy calendar, Brisbane Comedy Festival 2020 returns for its 11th year with a bumper line-up of 85 acts playing in 14 performance spaces across five Brisbane venues from 21 February to 22 March, 2020. Brisbane Powerhouse is comedy central, hosting performances and gigs across its iconic New Farm space – from its rooftop to its storeroom – with Brisbane City Hall and Newstead Brewing Co again throwing open their doors to entertainers. Joining the fold for the first time are two new Fortitude Valley venues: the old-world charm of The Tivoli and the shiny newness of Fortitude Music Hall. The month-long festival of fun and frivolity begins with the popular Brisbane Comedy Festival Opening Gala, hosted by a soon-to-be-revealed act who will attempt to corral the comedic chaos of more than 9 comedians at Brisbane City Hall on Friday 21 February. The festival again shines the spotlight on top Queensland talent including Mel Buttle, Steph Tisdell, Becky Lucas and Matt Okine; local collectives Act/React, Brisburned and Politics in the Pub; and the dazzling return of a ‘90s icon – Agro with Jamie Dunn. Grin, giggle and guffaw with a slate of national comedy heavyweights such as Dave Hughes, Peter Helliar, Fiona O’Loughlin, Nazeem Hussein, Frank Woodley, Sammy J and the duo we never knew we needed: Paul McDermott and Steven Gates.

Faculty of Law, Humanities and the Arts - Papers. 4002. https://ro.uow.edu.au/lhapapers/4002 Research Online is the open access institutional repository for the University of Wollongong. For further information contact the UOW Library: [email protected] Exoticism or visceral cosmopolitanism: difference and desire in Chinese Australian women's writing Abstract In Visceral Cosmopolitanism, Mica Nava posits a positive and, by her own admission, utopian alternative to postcolonial readings of the sexualisation of difference: a cosmopolitanism located with the antiracist 'micro-narratives and encounters of the emotional, gendered and domestic everyday' (2007: 14). Olivia Khoo, in The Chinese Exotic, defines a new, diasporic Chineseness which 'conceives of women and femininity, not as the oppressed, but as forming part of the new visibility of Asia' (2007: 12). My reading of recent fiction by Chinese Australian women writers proposes to test these theories against more established models for understanding East/West intimate encounters such as exoticism, Orientalism and Occidentalism, speculating that they may offer a more nuanced understanding of both the complexity and the normalisation of difference in the affective cultures of the twenty-first century.

  • Visual Metaphors on Album Covers: an Analysis Into Graphic Design's
    Visual Metaphors on Album Covers: An Analysis into Graphic Design’s Effectiveness at Conveying Music Genres by Vivian Le A THESIS submitted to Oregon State University Honors College in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Honors Baccalaureate of Science in Accounting and Business Information Systems (Honors Scholar) Presented May 29, 2020 Commencement June 2020 AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF Vivian Le for the degree of Honors Baccalaureate of Science in Accounting and Business Information Systems presented on May 29, 2020. Title: Visual Metaphors on Album Covers: An Analysis into Graphic Design’s Effectiveness at Conveying Music Genres. Abstract approved:_____________________________________________________ Ryann Reynolds-McIlnay The rise of digital streaming has largely impacted the way the average listener consumes music. Consequentially, while the role of album art has evolved to meet the changes in music technology, it is hard to measure the effect of digital streaming on modern album art. This research seeks to determine whether or not graphic design still plays a role in marketing information about the music, such as its genre, to the consumer. It does so through two studies: 1. A computer visual analysis that measures color dominance of an image, and 2. A mixed-design lab experiment with volunteer participants who attempt to assess the genre of a given album. Findings from the first study show that color scheme models created from album samples cannot be used to predict the genre of an album. Further findings from the second theory show that consumers pay a significant amount of attention to album covers, enough to be able to correctly assess the genre of an album most of the time.

  • A Good and Pleasant Thing
    A Good and Pleasant Thing RR2020_Melanie Cheng_Good and Pleasant Thing [Music] Welcome to the Victorian Seniors Festival, In The Groove, Radio Reimagined in 2020. This project has been produced on the lands of the Woi Wurrung and Boon Wurrung peoples of the Kulin Nation. We pay our respects to Elders, past, present and emerging, and welcome all First Nations people listening today. As part of our Spoken Word series, please enjoy Melanie Cheng’s A Good and Pleasant Thing. Twenty years ago, supermarkets didn’t stock Chinese mushrooms. Now they had a whole aisle dedicated to international cuisine. Lebanese, Greek and Mexican on one side, Chinese, Vietnamese and Indian on the other. Mrs Chan hardly ever went to the shops by herself. On Wednesdays her eldest daughter, Lily, took her to Footscray Market to buy fresh vegetables, and every Friday her youngest daughter, Daisy, ordered bulky items, like toilet paper, for her online. But today was her grandson Martin’s twentieth birthday, and Mrs Chan wanted to surprise him—to surprise all of them—by cooking a family favourite. Chinese clay pot chicken and mushroom rice. She found the chicken thighs towards the front of the supermarket, cradled in polystyrene. The meat would be days old by now, but it would have to do. In Hong Kong, Mrs Chan would have sent her maid to choose a live chicken at Wan Chai Market and pick it up an hour later— dead, plucked and washed. When the Chan family feasted on the flesh for dinner, the meat would be less than six hours old.

  • Feduni Researchonline Copyright Notice
    FedUni ResearchOnline https://researchonline.federation.edu.au Copyright Notice This is an original manuscript/preprint of an article published by Taylor & Francis in Continuum in September 2020, available online: https://doi.org/10.1080/10304312.2020.1782838 CRICOS 00103D RTO 4909 Page 1 of 1 Comic investigation and genre-mixing: the television docucomedies of Lawrence Leung, Judith Lucy and Luke McGregor Lesley Speed In the twenty-first century, comedians have come to serve as public commentators. This article examines the relationship between genre-mixing and cultural commentary in four documentary series produced for the Australian Broadcasting Corporation (ABC) that centre on established comedians. These series are Lawrence Leung’s Choose Your Own Adventure (2009), Judith Lucy’s Spiritual Journey (2011), Judith Lucy is All Woman (2015) and Luke Warm Sex (2016). Each series combines the documentary and comedy genres by centring on a comedian’s investigation of a theme such as spirituality, gender or sex. While appearing alongside news satire, these docucomedies depart from the latter by eschewing politics in favour of existential themes. Embracing conventions of personalized documentaries, these series use performance reflexively to draw attention to therapeutic discourses and awkward situations. Giving expression to uncertain and questioning views of contemporary spirituality, gender and mediated intimacies, the docucomedies of Lawrence Leung, Judith Lucy and Luke McGregor stage interventions in contemporary debates that constitute forms of public pedagogy. Documentary comedy These series can be identified as documentary comedies, or docucomedies, which combine humour and non-fiction representation without adhering primarily to either genre. Although the relationship between comedy and factual screen works has received little sustained attention, notes Paul Ward, a program can combine both genres (2005, 67, 78–9).
