  • Affective Resonance: on the Uses and Abuses of Music in and for Philosophy
    Affective Resonance: On the Uses and Abuses of Music In and For Philosophy ROBIN JAMES Affect is often presented as an alternative to visual and/or representational theories, phenomenologies, and experiences. For example, Jasbir Puar contrasts the “representational” logic of “intersectionality” with the affective logic of assemblage.1 Similarly, Linda Alcoff argues that the “visual” aspects of identity are grounded in corporeal, sensuous horizons.2 The study of affect, both in gender studies and especially in philosophy, has largely ignored music— though this is, thankfully, beginning to change.3 Even scholars working with and through Deleuze, who does actually talk about music, often either overlook his work on music, or use “music” in a very general way, as a metaphor abstracted from musical practices or works.4 These oversights are surprising, because when philosophers who are not explicitly working on music do appeal to music, they often use music as a metaphor for affect.5 Music, like affect, emotion, or implicit understanding, is the Other of philosophy, at least as it is conventionally defined and practiced. For philosophers with little formal training or practical experience in music, “music” often serves as a metaphor for all that philosophy isn’t: affective, sensuous, embodied, feminine, etc. Or, because we don’t know how to put our experiences of music into propositional form, it seems to be purely affective, implicit, sensuous experience.6 Music can seem almost magical, because people without some sort of background in music (either in performance or in theory/history) generally lack the technical skills and concepts to analyze a piece of music and PhaenEx 7, no.2 (fall/winter 2012): 59-95 © 2012 Robin James - 60 - PhaenEx explain how and why it works the way it does.

  • “We're Going to Make the Rolling Stones Look Like Choirboys.”
    “We’re going to make The Rolling Stones look like choirboys.” Alice Cooper lice Cooper still looks like a witch: long, raggedy arms, a thatch of crow-feather hair and a large Captain Hook beaked nose. Even without his kohl eye make-up, his grey-blueA eyes wink out just like they did on his million-selling ’70s album covers. His face is creased and his skin is a little looser, but Alice doesn’t look that different from how he did when he was a threat to American decency. He’s tremendously easy company – warm, gracious and happy to retell well-worn stories, and laughing while he does. You can imagine him holding court with The Hollywood Vampires (his 1970s fraternity of terrifyingly hard-drinking musicians that included Keith Moon, Harry Nilsson and John Lennon), and you can see why celebrities like Johnny Depp regard him as a close friend. Smart and slightly self-effacing, he’s also surprisingly similar to his cameo in Wayne’s World, where he played the dignified elder statesman of rock lecturing his stunned fans with expert detail about the pre-settle- ment history of America. Vincent Damon Furnier may be a sophisticated and sober sixty-eight-year-old, golf-obsessed Republican, but he speaks with real fondness about Alice, often referring to him in the third person. Hearing about the height of his fame (and let’s not forget he was face-on-a-lunchbox, TV-holiday-special, Marvel-comic-about- your-exploits famous), it’s obvious he relishes the controversy he caused, but he never set out to corrupt anyone – only to entertain them.

Ifølge den svenske værprofeten får FRA PARKEN aktivitetsnivå. I vi en skikkelig varmebølge idet vi når årets åttende måned. Under Parkenfestivalen, med andre ord. Av Gjørmatologene Liv Boye Okkenhaug og Heidi Aaslund Lunheim I prosjektbeskrivelsen for Parkenfestivalen, skrevet tidlig i 2006, står følgende forklaring for hvorfor festivalen er lagt til perioden rundt skolestart; ”…fordi det ikke er ønskelig å konkurrere med andre festivaler i distriktet og fordi vi ønsker å samarbeide med Bodøs voksende studentmiljø. Parken skal gjøre det musikalske tilbudet i Bodø bredere og på sikt etablere seg som en rendyrket musikkfestival med nasjonale og inter- nasjonale artister. Men en garanti for at dette skjer i solskinn og under en skyfri himmel, gir dårlige odds. Derfor har vi valgt en periode på sensommeren som vi mener er den mest stabile, sett med forhåpningsfulle og litt statistiske øyne.” Årets Parkenfestival er nå gått over i historien.

  • ABSTRACT Title of Dissertation: the CRITICAL
    ABSTRACT Title of Dissertation: THE CRITICAL CULTURAL CYPHER: HIP HOP’S ROLE IN ENGAGING STUDENTS IN A DISCOURSE OF ENLIGHTENMENT A.Dee Williams, Doctor of Philosophy, 2007 Dissertation Directed By: Associate Professor Marvin Lynn Department of Education Hip Hop culture has been much maligned in the field of education for its disruptive role in the lives of youth. As such, education has ignored a cultural force that has had a major role in the development of youth identity. This study seeks to capitalize on the relationship between youth and Hip Hop culture through the engagement of high school students in a series of liberating intergroup dialogues with Hip Hop at their center. Based on the Cultural Circles of Paulo Freire and the theoretical frameworks of Critical Social Theory and Critical Race Theory, the Critical Cultural Cyphers – a Cypher is a Hip Hop term that describes a site where valued knowledge is constructed – were designed to cultivate the participants’ development of three areas: 1) the development of counter-narratives 2) the use of a language of critique and transcendence, and 3) the development of consientização or critical consciousness. Employing the methodology of critical ethnography, this study engaged eight high school seniors through a series of formal and informal interviews, mainstream academic classroom observations, and their participation in the inter-group dialogues. Within the dialogue, the participants attempted to 1) negotiate and integrate their constructions of definitions of Hip Hop culture, 2) identify problems within Hip Hop culture, and 3) develop individual and collective actions the group could take towards the resolution of the identified problems.

  • Color Stories 1
    Extra Fine™ Watercolors Extra Fine Extra ™ Watercolor Stories Watercolor COLOR STORIES in brief Discover our world of pigments and how to incorporate each of their unique characteristics1 into your art. Alizarin Crimson Alizarin Crimson is the oldest synthetic deep red-crimson pigment. It is a lake pigment which when applied in strength and kept from the direct sunlight will last for many decades. Alizarin is a treat to paint with, just the sheer joy of the depth and uniqueness of color is invigorating. A beautiful bluish- red pigment from the staining family, Alizarin Crimson is listed on the basic palette of a vast majority of artists. Intense and dark in value, Alizarin Crimson mixes cleanly with most pigments to create dark mixtures and warm neutrals. A combination of Aureolin (Cobalt Yellow) and French Ultramarine with Alizarin renders a surprising range of other colors resembling everything from Burnt Sienna and Umber to Payne’s Gray, while Alizarin Crimson with French Ultramarine creates an intense purple. Alvaro’s Caliente Grey Alvaro’s Caliente Grey, “is a terrific hue, very powerful, excellent to create strong and warm paintings. In monochrome this wonderful Grey is perfect to achieve a powerful atmosphere with amazing glow. This color is also perfect to add dramatic highlights and shadows.” Alvaro’s Caliente and Fresco Greys, as he describes them, are about; “...magnetism, fury, energy...power. You know greys... create a feeling of danger, emotion, passion... mystery...evoke things that are unknown...darkness. I use these greys to create a painting that has a magnetism...energy, mystery, passion...something to discover, entering the unknown, darkness.
