But I'm forgetting who you are. Played it every morning 'til I was 3. He would knock knock on my door, And twenty-five years later a little boy cries, And I'd pretend to be asleep And so I write these words and try to heal 'til he got right next to the bed; And try to father myself, Then I would get up and jump into his arms: And I dream up a father who says the words my "Good morning, Papa." father did not: And my papa he would tell me that he loved me. We shared a game: Dear Son, Knock, Knock. Until that day when the knock never came.

  • Swastikas and Silver Shirts: the Dawn of American Nazism
    ABSTRACT SWASTIKAS AND SILVER SHIRTS: THE DAWN OF AMERICAN NAZISM by Austin Carter Hall From 1922-1936, there was a considerable effort by Americans, German-Americans, and Germans to spread Nazi ideology throughout the United States. Figures such as Henry Ford who owned the anti-Semitic newspaper the Dearborn Independent was one of the first people to exert a concerted, nation-wide effort to fund anti-Semitic literature aimed at the common folk of America. With the NSDAP forming in 1920, some Nazis looked to the United States as a place outside of Germany where Nazism could flourish. Numerous organizations emerged in an attempt to spread hateful ideological stances. Alongside the rise of the “Second Klan,” American Nazism began to rear its head culminating in 1933 with the formation of the two groups that are prevalent in this study: William Dudley Pelley’s Silver Shirt Legion of America and Heinz Spanknöbel’s Friends of New Germany. A failed Hitleresque Beer Hall Putsch attempt by the San Diego Silver Shirts, the smuggling in of Nazi propaganda by the Friends of New Germany, and the ensuing Congressional investigations into these two groups demonstrates the lengths that some organizations and their leaders went in order to provide anti-Semitic, anti-democratic, pro-Hitler, and pro-fascist literature, ideals, and ideas throughout the United States in the interwar era.

  • “Can Daft Punk Play at My House?” by Alan
    “Can Daft Punk Play At My House?” A case study of music sampling and copyright. By Alan Hui Submitted in fulfilment of the degree of Bachelor of Arts (Media and Communications) (Honours) Department of Media and Communications, Faculty of Arts, The University of Sydney 12 October 2009 Abstract This thesis analyses and discusses the tensions between sampling and copyright by posing the question: ‘Can Daft Punk Play At My House?'. It examines one particular case of music sampling - the Soulwax Shibuya Re-remix of LCD Soundsystem’s Daft Punk Is Playing At My House to consider the ways in which copyright views sampling as infringement and to what extent copyright can subsist in a work of sampling. Following Chapter One on methodology, Chapter Two reviews the relevant legal, cultural studies and media studies literature to consider how sampling further challenges the copyright’s assumptions about author. Chapter Two demonstrates how sampling further challenges legal assumptions of what is a work and who is an author, and threshold tests, based on the concepts of originality, the idea-expression dichotomy and substantiality. It finds that the application of these assumptions and tests restrict the creative practice of sampling. Chapter Three presents examines the case study recording through the interpretations of music commentators and brothers Stephen and David Dewaele, two of the four members of Soulwax. It also examines the case study through further interpretations of the case study by four relevant experts in the musical and legal fields, the subjects of primary interview research. Chapter Three finds that with the exception of the Licensing Manager’s view, all other interviewees, commentators and artists recognise the cumulative, creative contribution of Soulwax’s sampling over and above its reproduction of .prior work by LCD Soundsystem, Daft Punk and other artists.
