  • When the President Talks to God: a Rhetorical Criticism of Anti-Bush Protest Music
    WHEN THE PRESIDENT TALKS TO GOD: A RHETORICAL CRITICISM OF ANTI-BUSH PROTEST MUSIC Megan O'Byrne A Thesis Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF ARTS December 2008 Committee: Michael L. Butterworth, Advisor Lara Martin Lengel Ellen W. Gorsevski ii ABSTRACT Michael L. Butterworth, Advisor Anti-war protest music has re-emerged onto the American songscape since the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001 and the resulting military conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan. This study works to explicate the ways in which protest music functions in the resultant culture of war. Protest music, as it reflects and creates culture, represents one possible site of productive change. Chapter 1 examines Ani DiFranco’s song “Self Evident” which was written as an immediate reaction to 9/11. Throughout this chapter I argue that protest music has the potential to work as a vehicle for consciousness raising. In Chapter 2 I consider the constitutive elements in the Bright Eyes song “When the President Talks to God.” Performed on The Tonight Show in May 2005, this song represents one of the first performances of dissent on national television after 9/11. This chapter also examines the limitations of Charland’s conception of the constituted public as it pertains to diverse and heterogeneous audiences. Ultimately, I argue that consciousness raising through music has the potential to bring listeners into the constituted subject position of those who dissent against war. iii Dedicated to the memory of Dr. Lewis (Lee) Snyder in whose shadow I will always walk.

While so many rock bands try to reinvent themselves with every new album, Cake has made a name for itself by sticking to its brand of smirking funk-pop. Blending jazz, rockabilly, experimental rock, and a little less country than usual, Comfort Eagle, the band's first album since leaving Capricorn Records for Columbia, carries on the Cake tradition of offbeat humor and catchy melodies. While some fans may be waiting for its sound to evolve, singer/songwriter John McCrea and company seem content to reign over their quirky little corner of the popular music landscape. "Opera Singer" and the first single, "Short Skirt/Long Jacket," follow in the footsteps of Cake's previous hits, but are no less enjoyable because of it. "Shadow Stabbing" is one of the most straightforward rock songs the band has ever recorded, with McCrea forgoing his usual half-spoken vocals for an almost irony-free delivery. While it is still unmistakably Cake, it would sound right at home on a Cars album. The rest of the album is by the numbers Cake, which is comforting and slightly disappointing at the same time.

  • Beat Tracking the Graphical Model Way
    Beat Tracking the Graphical Model Way Dustin Lang Nando de Freitas Department of Computer Science University of British Columbia Vancouver, BC fdalang, [email protected] Abstract We present a graphical model for beat tracking in recorded music. Using a probabilistic graphical model allows us to incorporate local information and global smoothness constraints in a principled manner. We evaluate our model on a set of varied and difficult examples, and achieve impres- sive results. By using a fast dual-tree algorithm for graphical model in- ference, our system runs in less time than the duration of the music being processed. 1 Introduction This paper describes our approach to the beat tracking problem. Dixon describes beats as follows: “much music has as its rhythmic basis a series of pulses, spaced approximately equally in time, relative to which the timing of all musical events can be described. This phenomenon is called the beat, and the individual pulses are also called beats”[1]. Given a piece of recorded music (an MP3 file, for example), we wish to produce a set of beats that correspond to the beats perceived by human listeners. The set of beats of a song can be characterised by the trajectories through time of the tempo and phase offset. Tempo is typically measured in beats per minute (BPM), and describes the frequency of beats. The phase offset determines the time offset of the beat. When tapping a foot in time to music, tempo is the rate of foot tapping and phase offset is the time at which the tap occurs.
