  • REMEMBER THIS SONG? a 2003 Musical Quiz Manus: Claes Nordenskiöld Producent: Claes Nordenskiöld Sändningsdatum: 19/11, 2003 Längd: 14’51
    Over to You 2003/2004 Remember This Song? Programnr:31495ra5 REMEMBER THIS SONG? A 2003 Musical Quiz Manus: Claes Nordenskiöld Producent: Claes Nordenskiöld Sändningsdatum: 19/11, 2003 Längd: 14’51 Music: Eminem “Lose Yourself ” Claes Nordenskiöld: Welcome to Remember This Song? – the yearly program that gives you a chance to remember a few of the hits of the past year – A 2003 Musical Quiz. What you heard in the opening was of course Eminem in “Lose Yourself ” from the soundtrack to the movie “8 Mile”. Now, whatever kind of music you like, whether it’s hip-hop, heavy metal, rock or pop, there’ll hopefully be something for you in this program – because there’s so much good music out there. You need a piece of paper and a pencil. I’m looking for a name with 11 letters, which make up the answer. Just write the numbers 1 to 11 on the left-hand side of your paper. And as always, I will play parts of several songs. Each part is a clue to the answer. The clues may be the title of a song, the name of a group or a singer, and so on. You may not be able to answer every single question, but you’ll still have a chance to get the final answer, which I’ll give, at the end of the show. So, let’s get started with the clue for number 3. The members of Outlandish have different ethnic backgrounds – Morocco, Pakistan and Honduras. But the band really comes from Denmark. For number 3, I’m looking for the title of their first super-hit.

  • Makeover Television in Russia: Imagining Queer Through Post
    Makeover Television in Russia: Imagining Queer Through Post-Soviet Aphasia By Olga Kazakevich Submitted to Central European University Department of Gender Studies In partial fulfilment of the degree of Master of Arts in Gender Studies Supervisor: Dr. Erzsébet Barát CEU eTD Collection Budapest, Hungary 2017 Abstract Through the analysis of the 2012 episode of the beauty makeover program Fashion Verdict (Modnyi Prigovor), Channel One (Pervyi Kanal), that features two lesbian women as participants and makes over one of them into a conventionally feminine woman, this thesis argues against oversimplifying interpretations of this show as homophobic. Drawing, theoretically, on the concept of queer visibility, the thesis argues that the ‘queer’ makeover episode should be seen from within the post-Soviet historical, political and cultural context due to the specificities of multiple cultural forces working in the post-Soviet discursive field, including the field of sexuality. In the context of the laws prohibiting the ‘propaganda of non- traditional sexual relations’ among minors passed in several Russian regions by 2012, the airing of the episode cannot be explained without discussing the work of some key media actors on Channel One, including CEO Konstantin Ernst, as it allows to see the Fashion Verdict episode in a perspective. Through the critical discourse analysis of the episode, the thesis claims that the show is offering its queer participants strategies of survival in an increasingly homophobic environment by means of adjusting their appearance to the norms of conventional femininity. These strategies, it is argued, are embedded in the Soviet discursive fields of queer experience and thus constitute what Serguei Oushakine has called post-Soviet aphasia.
