Space Oddities for the Age of Space Tourism SPACE ODDITIES FOR THE AGE OF SPACE TOURISM Michael Mooradian Lupro A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY August 2009 Committee: Donald McQuarie, Advisor Lynn E. Pearson Graduate Faculty Representative Ellen Berry Jeremy Wallach © 2009 Michael Mooradian Lupro All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Dr. Donald McQuarie, Advisor This research focuses on musical representations of space in the context of the nascent space tourism industry. The argument contextualizes music as a political practice, one that conceptually constructs spaces and thus could intervene in the colonization of space as produced, largely discursively so far, by transnational entertainment corporations. I specifically focus on the musical texts “Space Oddity” by David Bowie, “Rocketman” by Elton John, and “Space is the Place” by Sun Ra as examples of interventions and revisions of dominant space discourse. Methodologically, the production and reception processes of popular music are used as a template for generating analyses of how particular musical texts might intersect with other culture industry productions such as space tourism. The research concludes that popular music has the capacity to help keep space open for multiplicity, diversity, equity, and, if need be, resistance. iv For Beth, Shaun, and Charley v ACKNOWLEDGMENTS The greatest debt is owed to my life coach, editor, inspiration, and reality check Beth Ann Kaufka Jr. and our daughters Shaun (who joined us as the PhD process started) and Charley (who joins us as this project draws to a close). My parents Donald and Barbara provided all the right carrots and sticks to prepare me for the opportunity of higher education. I benefited greatly from intellectual engagement with my fellow students in the American Culture Studies program at Bowling Green State University especially those involved with Culture Club: The Cultural Studies Scholars Association and the Battlegrounds States conferences. As Director of the program, much of the responsibility for the recruitment and retention of such great colleagues and for creating a productive and welcoming atmosphere belongs to Don McQuarie. Turns out he’s a great dissertation advisor as well, with well-timed encouragement and perfectly pitched feedback. Jeremy Wallach provided a valuable model for how to apply ones love of music to cultural study. Ellen Berry accomplished what I thought impossible, making critical theory accessible, fun, and excitedly relevant. I would also like to recognize the generous support of my colleagues in the Division of University Studies at North Carolina Agricultural and Technical State University. My Contemporary World teammates and Dean Joseph L. Graves Jr. have used the right combination of carrots and sticks to make sure I balance my teaching and my scholarship, and Dr. Gary Bailey organized the Faculty Roundtable where I was able to try out some of these ideas on a friendly and critically engaged audience. Thanks are also due to Scott Simkins and Sandra Totten for helping me access the HBCU Title III Junior Faculty Development Fund. vi Finally, to everyone who has ever let me jam with them, hang out in their studio, observe them directing or editing, traded a zine, or made their couch available for crashing – there must be a place for you if space is to be a place worth visiting. Thank you. vii TABLE OF CONTENTS Page INTRODUCTION: MUSICAL SUBVERSION OF SPACE TOURISM ............................ 1 Hard Days and Nights ............................................................................................... 2 On Planet Earth, I’ll Probably Stay ........................................................................... 6 Rock Space ............................................................................................................ 12 The Space Oddities: An Experimental Culture Studies Methodology ...................... 21 First Rough Mixes...................................................................................................... 38 CHAPTER I.

Lost to such adventures are the less sublime, more material spaces of social life, and with them the awareness that, for all its apparent vastness, space is socially produced. Paul Youngquist in “The Space Machine” (336). Music is prophecy […] ahead of the rest of society because it explores, much faster than material reality can, the entire range of possibilities in a given code. It makes audible the new world that will gradually become visible […] it is not only the image of things, but the transcending of the everyday, the herald of the future. For this reason musicians, even when officially recognized, are dangerous, disturbing, and subversive. Jaques Attali in Noise: The Political Economy of Music (11). Space is not the final frontier. No matter how many times this trope is deployed in popular culture, so long as there is a need for people to imagine a place where things might be different, new, and/or better, there will be places produced as frontiers. The frontier of space shares with previous frontiers - such as the New World or the American West – a mythological construction that serves as a repository for all manner of utopian dreaming and capital scheming. But unlike those previous frontiers, space is still open enough to be constructed differently, to avoid what Alondra Nelson calls the “social science fictions” that reinscribe the worst social inequalities of dominant culture as it seeks new territory to colonize (1). Space is still relatively non-existent as a place of real significant human occupation, meaning that space as most people know it today has been largely constructed through popular culture. The social, capital, or cultural restraints of our earthly existence need not follow should humanity colonize space in the future. As a place that has been socially but not yet materially produced, the everyday lived experience of people in space is still open to be constructed differently, to be a place where what seems odd to us today may turn out to be a perfectly normal part of everyday life. Importantly, the future of space is still in the hands of anyone who cares to participate in its construction. The existing discursive construction of space, to which this project is an amendment, valorizes American exceptionalism, normalizes frontier militarism, and perpetuates myths of technological and capitalist superiority. The space of twentieth century popular culture is of both endless opportunity and unlimited danger. From Star Wars to the Star Trek franchise, the Alien trilogy to Battlestar Galactica, the combatants and contests may differ but the regime of violent conflict is unchallenged. Even within the discourse of opportunity in space, the opportunities are circumscribed by socially constructed terrestrial limits on who gets to participate, how they do so, and to what ends. In other words, the Star Trek franchise may feature ethnically diverse crews and even a female captain in one case, and Trekkies consistently profess tolerant values, but the universalism is wrapped in militarism, the economics are ubiquitously capitalist, and uneasy differences like queerness

  • Young Americans to Emotional Rescue: Selected Meetings
    YOUNG AMERICANS TO EMOTIONAL RESCUE: SELECTING MEETINGS BETWEEN DISCO AND ROCK, 1975-1980 Daniel Kavka A Thesis Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF MUSIC August 2010 Committee: Jeremy Wallach, Advisor Katherine Meizel © 2010 Daniel Kavka All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Jeremy Wallach, Advisor Disco-rock, composed of disco-influenced recordings by rock artists, was a sub-genre of both disco and rock in the 1970s. Seminal recordings included: David Bowie’s Young Americans; The Rolling Stones’ “Hot Stuff,” “Miss You,” “Dance Pt.1,” and “Emotional Rescue”; KISS’s “Strutter ’78,” and “I Was Made For Lovin’ You”; Rod Stewart’s “Do Ya Think I’m Sexy“; and Elton John’s Thom Bell Sessions and Victim of Love. Though disco-rock was a great commercial success during the disco era, it has received limited acknowledgement in post-disco scholarship. This thesis addresses the lack of existing scholarship pertaining to disco-rock. It examines both disco and disco-rock as products of cultural shifts during the 1970s. Disco was linked to the emergence of underground dance clubs in New York City, while disco-rock resulted from the increased mainstream visibility of disco culture during the mid seventies, as well as rock musicians’ exposure to disco music. My thesis argues for the study of a genre (disco-rock) that has been dismissed as inauthentic and commercial, a trend common to popular music discourse, and one that is linked to previous debates regarding the social value of pop music.

  • Principia Discordia.Pdf
    RAW Intro | Omar Intro | Title Page | Index | Version Notes | INTRODUCTION You hold in your hands one of the Great Books of our century fnord. Some Great Books are recognized at once with a fusillade of critical huzzahs and gonfolons, like Joyce’s Ulysses. Others appear almost furtively and are only discovered 50 years later, like Moby Dick or Mendel’s great essay on genetics. The Principia Discordia entered our space-time continuum almost as unobtrusively as a cat-burglar creeping over a windowsill. In 1968, virtually nobody had heard of this wonderful book. In 1970, hundreds of people from coast to coast were talking about it and asking the identity of the mysterious author, Malaclypse the Younger. Rumors swept across the continent, from New York to Los Angeles, from Seattle to St. Joe. Malaclypse was actually Alan Watts, one heard. No, said another legend – the Principia was actually the work of the Sufi Order. A third, very intriguing myth held that Malaclypse was a pen-name for Richard M. Nixon, who had allegedly composed the Principia during a few moments of lucidity. I enjoyed each of these yarns and did my part to help spread them. I was also careful never to contradict the occasional rumors that I had actually written the whole thing myself during an acid trip. The legendry, the mystery, the cult grew very slowly. By the mid- 1970’s, thousands of people, some as far off as Hong Kong and Australia, were talking about the Principia, and since the original was out of print by then, xerox copies were beginning to circulate here and there.

  • Early STRATEGY of the MONTH EXTENDING
    CORE WORD: Early For Educators, Related Service Providers and Parents STRATEGY OF THE MONTH EXTENDING, EXPANDING AND ELABORATING The AAC strategy of Extending, Expanding and Elaborating focuses on communication partners responding to what students express by providing immediate, (simultaneous) verbal and AAC system modeling based on the student's unique language goals. As an example, students at the single-word level may have a goal to produce two-word utterances and therefore the ‘add a word’ approach could be utilized, (providing modeling by adding a word to the utterance/word produced). Such added words could be targeted as: pronouns, verbs, or descriptors, (for added specificity). Intermediate to advanced communicators would have different, higher-level language goals and targets that are individualized. When using the Extending, Expanding and Elaborating approach, it is suggested that such modeling is carried out in a positive, upbeat tone and with correct grammar and syntax. WAYS WE CAN USE THE WORD SHARE INFORMATION: (e.g., I am early) ASK A QUESTION: (e.g., am I early?) DESCRIBE: (e.g., too early) NEGATE: (e.g., you are not early) ROUTINES AND SCHEDULES Circle: Adults and students can use early to indicate who was early to school during the morning circle time routine. 1 Snack time: Adults can lead students in a discussion about foods and the difference between what type of foods you eat early in the day such as breakfast food (e.g., eggs, toast, yogurt, etc.). PLAY Freeze Dance: Students can play freeze dance and when an adult or student pauses the music, students can point out if anyone stopped dancing too early.
