Iowa Journal of Cultural Studies is produced by The Berkeley Electronic Press (bepress). https://ir.uiowa.edu/ijcs Mediasprawl: Springfield U.S.A. Douglas Rushkoff The Simpsons are the closest thing in America to a national media literacy program. By pretending to be a kids’ cartoon, the show gets away with murder: that is, the virtual murder of our most coercive media iconography and techniques. For what began as entertaining interstitial material for an alternative network variety show has revealed itself, in the twenty-first century, as nothing short of a media revolu­ tion. Maybe that’s the very reason The Simpsons works so well. The Simpsons were bom to provide The Tracey Ullman Show with a way of cutting to commercial breaks. Their very function as a form of media was to bridge the discontinuity inherent to broadcast television. They existed to pave over the breaks. But rather than dampening the effects of these gaps in the broadcast stream, they heightened them. They acknowledged the jagged edges and recombinant forms behind the glossy patina of American television and, by doing so, initiated its deconstruction. They exist in the outlying suburbs of the American media landscape: the hinter­ lands of the Fox network. And living as they do—simultaneously a part of yet separate from the mainstream, primetime fare—they are able to bear witness to our cultural formulations and then comment upon them.

  • Memetic Proliferation and Fan Participation in the Simpsons
    THE UNIVERSITY OF HULL Craptacular Science and the Worst Audience Ever: Memetic Proliferation and Fan Participation in The Simpsons being a Thesis submitted for the Degree of PhD Film Studies in the University of Hull by Jemma Diane Gilboy, BFA, BA (Hons) (University of Regina), MScRes (University of Edinburgh) April 2016 Craptacular Science and the Worst Audience Ever: Memetic Proliferation and Fan Participation in The Simpsons by Jemma D. Gilboy University of Hull 201108684 Abstract (Thesis Summary) The objective of this thesis is to establish meme theory as an analytical paradigm within the fields of screen and fan studies. Meme theory is an emerging framework founded upon the broad concept of a “meme”, a unit of culture that, if successful, proliferates among a given group of people. Created as a cultural analogue to genetics, memetics has developed into a cultural theory and, as the concept of memes is increasingly applied to online behaviours and activities, its relevance to the area of media studies materialises. The landscapes of media production and spectatorship are in constant fluctuation in response to rapid technological progress. The internet provides global citizens with unprecedented access to media texts (and their producers), information, and other individuals and collectives who share similar knowledge and interests. The unprecedented speed with (and extent to) which information and media content spread among individuals and communities warrants the consideration of a modern analytical paradigm that can accommodate and keep up with developments. Meme theory fills this gap as it is compatible with existing frameworks and offers researchers a new perspective on the factors driving the popularity and spread (or lack of popular engagement with) a given media text and its audience.

  • The Simpsons WORKSHEET A
    Inside Out The Simpsons WORKSHEET A First shown on television in 1989, the animated sitcom The Simpsons quickly became a huge success. The first series attracted an average of more than 13 million viewers per episode in the United States, and it wasn’t long before it started gaining fans in many other countries. In its 18 year history it has won countless prizes, as well as being named best ever television series by Time magazine. So what do people find so funny about the dysfunctional Simpson family and the other cartoon characters who inhabit the imaginary American town of Springfield? One possible answer is that the show doesn’t just poke fun at American society and culture, but also at universal aspects of the human condition. It also balances ‘low’ and ‘high’ humour, for example by combining amusing visual jokes with clever references to social and political issues, music, science, television and history. The show’s principal characters are, of course, the members of the Simpson family. The father, Homer, is widely seen as one of the greatest comic characters in cartoon history. Although lazy, clumsy, inconsiderate and basically quite stupid, he still manages to be likeable, partly because in his own unusual way he is devoted to his wife and children. He works, rather inappropriately, as a safety inspector at the Springfield nuclear power station. His catchphrase, ‘D’oh!’, used on the many occasions when he makes a mistake, became so popular that in 2002 it entered the Oxford English Dictionary. It is fortunate that his long-suffering wife, Marge, possesses a tolerant personality in addition to her eye-catching blue hair.

  • Homer Economicus: Using the Simpsons to Teach Economics
    Homer Economicus: Using The Simpsons to Teach Economics Joshua Hall* West Virginia University Getting students to understand the economic way of thinking might be the most difficult aspect of a teaching economist=s job. The counterintuitive nature of economics often makes it difficult to get the average student to think Alike an economist.@ To this end, the need to keep students engaged and interested is essential when teaching economic principles and interdisciplinary approaches to engaging students are becoming increasingly common. For example, Leet and Houser (2003) build an entire principles class around classic films and documentaries while Watts (1999) discusses how literary passages can be used to teach a typical undergraduate course more effectively. I further extend this interdisciplinary approach to economic education by providing examples from the long-running animated television show The Simpsons that can be used to stimulate student discussion and engagement in an introductory course in microeconomics. Using The Simpsons in the classroom The bulk of this paper describes scenes from The Simpsons that illustrate basic economic concepts. While the examples are pretty straightforward, the difficulty in using The Simpsons lies in deciding: where to place the examples into the lecture and the best way to present the scene to the students. _____________________________ * The author gratefully acknowledges the financial support of The Buckeye Institute. One difficult feature of using any popular culture in the classroom, even a show that has been on the air for fifteen seasons and 300-plus episodes, is that students do not all have the same frame of reference, even in the most homogenous of classrooms.

  • The Id, the Ego and the Superego of the Simpsons
    Hugvísindasvið The Id, the Ego and the Superego of The Simpsons B.A. Essay Stefán Birgir Stefánsson January 2013 University of Iceland School of Humanities Department of English The Id, the Ego and the Superego of The Simpsons B.A. Essay Stefán Birgir Stefánsson Kt.: 090285-2119 Supervisor: Anna Heiða Pálsdóttir January 2013 Abstract The purpose of this essay is to explore three main characters from the popular television series The Simpsons in regards to Sigmund Freud‟s theories in psychoanalytical analysis. This exploration is done because of great interest by the author and the lack of psychoanalytical analysis found connected to The Simpsons television show. The main aim is to show that these three characters, Homer Simpson, Marge Simpson and Ned Flanders, represent Freud‟s three parts of the psyche, the id, the ego and the superego, respectively. Other Freudian terms and ideas are also discussed. Those include: the reality principle, the pleasure principle, anxiety, repression and aggression. For this analysis English translations of Sigmund Freud‟s original texts and other written sources, including psychology textbooks, and a selection of The Simpsons episodes, are used. The character study is split into three chapters, one for each character. The first chapter, which is about Homer Simpson and his controlling id, his oral character, the Oedipus complex and his relationship with his parents, is the longest due to the subchapter on the relationship between him and Marge, the id and the ego. The second chapter is on Marge Simpson, her phobia, anxiety, aggression and repression. In the third and last chapter, Ned Flanders and his superego is studied, mainly through the religious aspect of the character.

  • Homer Simpson's
    Homer Simpson’s “Doh!” Singsong between Music and Speech Albrecht Riethmüller, Berlin The article examines sound phenomena situated between word and music, voice and noise, and singing and speaking. A theoretical exposition of three modes of com- munication – articulation, gesticulation and modulation – is followed by examples from the TV cartoon series The Simpsons, including Danny Elfman’s overture and Homer Simpson’s signature exclamation, “Doh!”. A growing number of research projects on the subject of voice have recently gained international attention. As expected, the studies’ outcomes are trans- mitted by written and spoken words. No one would anticipate that the results be sung. Why are thoughts and ideas communicated by the spoken word and not by singing, even on questions concerning the voice itself? Why do we trust the persuasiveness of rhetoric1 above the expressiveness of emotion? 1. Complete and Incomplete Communication In recent discourses on the phenomenon of voice, one repeatedly cited para- digm is the sound of the sirens, those same sirens created at the beginning of our written western tradition by Homer in his Odyssey (XII). A full library has been devoted to them over the ages, and countless writings speculate about how they might have sounded. The predominant general agreement is that the sirens probably uttered a type of singsong. This is also how Debussy set 1 Kant, in his Critique of Judgment (first published 1790), had second thoughts when it came to ars oratoria as it evoked in him “an unpleasant feeling of disapprobation of a treacherous art” (1951: 172; § 53, annotation). 216 Albrecht Riethmüller them in his third Nocturne for orchestra entitled “Sirènes” (1897), where the women’s chorus adjacent the orchestra sings vowels, not words.

  • Bart Simpson
    Wink: An Online Journal 1 Paragraph: Beth Smith Instructor: Mary McLaughlin Bart Simpson Bart Simpson may be the unlikeliest of icons, but he is undoubtedly an American idol. One of the youngest inhabitants of Springfield, a town whose entire population seems to have severe jaundice, Bart has a reputation like no other. Not above dropping his pants to showcase his rear-end, Bart is infamous for mouthing off to authority and crank calling local businesses. Those who suffer his antics the most include his father Homer, an employee at a nuclear plant; his teacher and principal, who are accustomed to keeping him after class; and his younger sister Lisa, a child genius who is mostly just annoyed by his misbehavior (Corliss 2,3). His foolishness often lands his neck in the hands of his father or keeps him after school hours to write on the blackboard as discipline. Yet, regardless of how much mischief he gets himself into or how many times he is punished for it, loyal viewers never hold a grudge against him. People everywhere have fallen for the little prankster with the “paper bag-shaped head” (Corliss 1). Sure he is at an advantage being only ten years old, and many people can relate to his character. However, his appeal is not limited to former class clowns or those who enjoy skateboarding; he is loved and admired by all. His ability to evoke laughter is remarkable. I would challenge anyone to watch an episode of “The Simpsons” and not let out a single chuckle. His daily punishment of writing on the blackboard after class once included the phrase, “I am not delightfully saucy” (qtd.
