1 9 8 1 | P O S T - P U N K 1 9 8 1 | P O S T - P U N K M U S I C O P H I L I A 1 9 8 1 | P O S T - P U N K Post-punk has a lousy name. It’s temporally accurate, mostly; and meaningful in that post-punk music generally benefited from the jolt of energy and attitude that briefly was punk, even when it was often made by musicians who’d been at it for years. But punk was mostly musically and culturally discrete, insular and self-constrained. Post-punk, conversely, represented a flourishing of many sounds, myriad scenes, and many styles, all with roots reaching back (garage rock, krautrock, funk, jazz, musique concrete, ska) and branches reaching out and intertwining (hip-hop, disco, Latin musics, dub), all while leaning eagerly forward into the future. In part post-punk was the liberation of “art rock” from the virtuosic grip of progressive rock, and from the from the exclusiveness of forebears like the Velvets and Kraftwerk and Roxy and Bowie. It was to varying degrees the breaking down of barriers between “rock” and non-white musics, always with the risk of appropriation; but mostly created with a sincere attitude of learning and engagement, rather than theft. Women in post-punk were not an oddity, an opening act, but were instead at the very center of its most creative scenes in a way rock music had rarely seen. Certainly post-punk was a rejection of “disco-sucks” and cock-rock meatheadedness, as even its simplest power pop forms generally rejected brute machismo. Post-punk was revolutionary in that it helped expand rock music’s typical access to means of production, and broadened the circle of who could be at the forefront; but it was also evolutionary of rock music’s best possibilities, no an ex nihilo event, and as such was made to last. 1981 was the not the year that defined post-punk (look, probably, to 1979), but it was the year that exemplified it’s almost-boundless breadth and depth. If this set has a thesis, it’s that post-punk was defined not by its “greats,” but by how great even its peripheral players were, as a movement that empowered people to both take over the means of production (and distribution and criticism and celebration, in ways that epitomized the ethos of “independent music” to this day), and also the means of expression. The “greats” are indeed great in 1981: your Talking Heads, your Gangs of Four, your Wires, Raincoats, OMDs, and This Heats. But in intensity, if not in reach, they were matched by Family Fodder, Crash Course in Science, Dif Juz, and Goat That Went Om. This set is a celebration of them all, their indefatigable spirit of artistry, exploration and fun. [‘1981’ was originally created as a physical box set of CD-Rs in 2004, when I was 24. Now this music is four decades old, and so am I. But if I can’t say the same for myself, the music feels as vibrant and brand-new as ever. Please, support artists who made music in 1981 and who make it in 2021: buy music, don’t just stream!] 1 9 8 1 | F E E T 01 [00:00] British Electronic Foundation - Rise of the East 02 [02:45] Bush Tetras -

  • ANNUAL REPORT 2014-2015 School of Sciences and Mathematics Annual Report 2014‐2015
    ANNUAL REPORT 2014-2015 School of Sciences and Mathematics Annual Report 2014‐2015 Executive Summary The 2014 – 2015 academic year was a very successful one for the School of Sciences and Mathematics (SSM). Our faculty continued their stellar record of publication and securing extramural funding, and we were able to significantly advance several capital projects. In addition, the number of majors in SSM remained very high and we continued to provide research experiences for a significant number of our students. We welcomed four new faculty members to our ranks. These individuals and their colleagues published 187 papers in peer‐reviewed scientific journals, many with undergraduate co‐authors. Faculty also secured $6.4M in new extramural grant awards to go with the $24.8M of continuing awards. During the 2013‐14 AY, ground was broken for two 3,000 sq. ft. field stations at Dixie Plantation, with construction slated for completion in Fall 2014. These stations were ultimately competed in June 2015, and will begin to serve students for the Fall 2015 semester. The 2014‐2015 academic year, marked the first year of residence of Computer Science faculty, as well as some Biology and Physics faculty, in Harbor Walk. In addition, nine Biology faculty had offices and/or research space at SCRA, and some biology instruction occurred at MUSC. In general, the displacement of a large number of students to Harbor Walk went very smoothly. Temporary astronomy viewing space was secured on the roof of one of the College’s garages. The SSM dean’s office expended tremendous effort this year to secure a contract for completion of the Rita Hollings Science Center renovation, with no success to date.

  • I Can Hear Music
    5 I CAN HEAR MUSIC 1969–1970 “Aquarius,” “Let the Sunshine In” » The 5th Dimension “Crimson and Clover” » Tommy James and the Shondells “Get Back,” “Come Together” » The Beatles “Honky Tonk Women” » Rolling Stones “Everyday People” » Sly and the Family Stone “Proud Mary,” “Born on the Bayou,” “Bad Moon Rising,” “Green River,” “Traveling Band” » Creedence Clearwater Revival “In-a-Gadda-Da-Vida” » Iron Butterfly “Mama Told Me Not to Come” » Three Dog Night “All Right Now” » Free “Evil Ways” » Santanaproof “Ride Captain Ride” » Blues Image Songs! The entire Gainesville music scene was built around songs: Top Forty songs on the radio, songs on albums, original songs performed on stage by bands and other musical ensembles. The late sixties was a golden age of rock and pop music and the rise of the rock band as a musical entity. As the counterculture marched for equal rights and against the war in Vietnam, a sonic revolution was occurring in the recording studio and on the concert stage. New sounds were being created through multitrack recording techniques, and record producers such as Phil Spector and George Martin became integral parts of the creative process. Musicians expanded their sonic palette by experimenting with the sounds of sitar, and through sound-modifying electronic ef- fects such as the wah-wah pedal, fuzz tone, and the Echoplex tape-de- lay unit, as well as a variety of new electronic keyboard instruments and synthesizers. The sound of every musical instrument contributed toward the overall sound of a performance or recording, and bands were begin- ning to expand beyond the core of drums, bass, and a couple guitars.

  • “Grunge Killed Glam Metal” Narrative by Holly Johnson
    The Interplay of Authority, Masculinity, and Signification in the “Grunge Killed Glam Metal” Narrative by Holly Johnson A thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Affairs in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in Music and Culture Carleton University Ottawa, Ontario © 2014, Holly Johnson ii Abstract This thesis will deconstruct the "grunge killed '80s metal” narrative, to reveal the idealization by certain critics and musicians of that which is deemed to be authentic, honest, and natural subculture. The central theme is an analysis of the conflicting masculinities of glam metal and grunge music, and how these gender roles are developed and reproduced. I will also demonstrate how, although the idealized authentic subculture is positioned in opposition to the mainstream, it does not in actuality exist outside of the system of commercialism. The problematic nature of this idealization will be examined with regard to the layers of complexity involved in popular rock music genre evolution, involving the inevitable progression from a subculture to the mainstream that occurred with both glam metal and grunge. I will illustrate the ways in which the process of signification functions within rock music to construct masculinities and within subcultures to negotiate authenticity. iii Acknowledgements I would like to thank firstly my academic advisor Dr. William Echard for his continued patience with me during the thesis writing process and for his invaluable guidance. I also would like to send a big thank you to Dr. James Deaville, the head of Music and Culture program, who has given me much assistance along the way.

  • Johnny Rotten of the Sex Pistols, Public Image Ltd., to Keynote Promaxbda Europe
    Johnny Rotten of The Sex Pistols, Public Image Ltd., to Keynote PromaxBDA Europe 02.01.2017 John Lydon, better known to decades of music fans as Johnny Rotten of The Sex Pistols, will headline PromaxBDA Europe 2017 in Amsterdam in March, the association announced Wednesday. The British singer and songwriter will discuss his creative process and what it takes to attract attention in a crowded media environment during his keynote session on March 14. During his iconic turn as Johnny Rotten as lead singer of The Sex Pistols in the 1970s, Lydon was widely credited with being a leading figure of the punk-rock movement. According to his auto-biography, "he brought chaos and carnival to starchy mid'70s Britain with the Sex Pistols, then shapeshifted with [his new band] Public Image Ltd (PiL) into a talented free experimentalist." Lydon has continued to reinvent himself throughout his long career. Other keynote speakers set for Europe's largest gathering of entertainment marketing and design professionals include: - Sahar Baghery, head of global research and content strategy, Eurodata TV Worldwide, will help make sense of the "Content Riot" that consumers are facing today. She will take a deep dive look at traditional and disruptive content, measuring today's effective marketing campaigns and the latest research on global consumer viewing trends. - Mr. Bingo, one-of-a-kind artist & illustrator became an internet sensation and struck a chord with the jaded and keyboard-dependent public when he created a website and invited people to pay to receive his own artistic and comedic version of hate mail.

  • What Should We Teach Children About Forgiveness?
    What should we teach children about forgiveness? Alonso: But, O, how oddly will it sound, that I Must ask my child forgiveness? Prospero: There sir stop, Let us not burthen our remembrances, with A heaviness that’s gone. (Shakespeare, Tempest, V,I) In 1998 the president of the Bible Society called on the nation to forgive David Beckham for getting himself sent off in England’s World Cup match against Argentina, after it was reported that in a TV poll 40% of fans said they could not forgive his foul (The Guardian, 13 July, 1998).1 In 1999 President Clinton asked God, his wife and the American people for forgiveness for lying about his relationship with Monica Lewinsky. The Pope, perhaps helpfully for Beckham and Clinton, declared 2000 to be a special Holy Year, a year of forgiveness, freeing sinners from time in purgatory (The Guardian, 28 November 1998). We seem to live in a culture of forgiveness in which there is pressure on wrongdoers to seek forgiveness and on others to forgive them. How far should this be reflected in the way we educate children? Should teachers and parents teach children to forgive one another? The Primary and Secondary Handbooks on the National Curriculum both include under the entry about the promotion of moral development across the curriculum the statement that children should ‘learn how to forgive themselves and others’ (Handbook for Primary Teachers, DfEE/QCA, 1999: 19; Handbook for Secondary Teachers, DfEE/QCA, 1999: 21). But what is involved in encouraging forgiveness? Is it an unambiguous notion? Is there even a danger that it could involve fostering in children some ethically questionable attitudes? 1 Forgiveness is one response to having been wronged.

  • Hall of Fame Andy Partridge
    Hall of Fame Andy Partridge Andrew John Partridge (born 11 November 1953) is an English singer, songwriter, guitarist, and record producer from Swindon. He is best known for co-founding the rock band XTC, in which he served as the group's primary songwriter and vocalist. While the band was formed as an early punk rock group, Partridge's music drew heavily from British Invasion songwriters, and his style gradually shifted to more traditional pop, often with pastoral themes. The band's only British top 10 hit, "Senses Working Overtime" (1982), was written by Partridge. In addition to his work with XTC, Partridge has released one solo album on Virgin Records in 1980 called Take Away / The Lure of Salvage. He has also collaborated (as performer, writer or record producer) with recording artists, including Martin Newell, with whom he recorded and produced an album in 1993 entitled The Greatest Living Englishman released in Japan as a duo album. Partridge was producer for the English band Blur during the recording of Modern Life Is Rubbish (1993). He was replaced by Stephen Street at the insistence of their record label, Food. According to Partridge he was unpaid for the sessions and received his expenses only. Partridge also wrote four songs for Disney's version of James and the Giant Peach (1996) but was replaced by Randy Newman when he could not get Disney to offer him "an acceptable deal". In the 2000s, Partridge began releasing demos of his songs under his own name in The Official Fuzzy Warbles Collector's Album and the Fuzzy Warbles album series on his APE House record label.

    4. Northern England 1. Progress in Hell Northern England was both the center of the European industrial revolution and the birthplace of industrial music. From the early nineteenth century, coal and steel works fueled the economies of cities like Manchester and She!eld and shaped their culture and urban aesthetics. By 1970, the region’s continuous mandate of progress had paved roads and erected buildings that told 150 years of industrial history in their ugly, collisive urban planning—ever new growth amidst the expanding junkyard of old progress. In the BBC documentary Synth Britannia, the narrator declares that “Victorian slums had been torn down and replaced by ultramodern concrete highrises,” but the images on the screen show more brick ruins than clean futurescapes, ceaselessly "ashing dystopian sky- lines of colorless smoke.1 Chris Watson of the She!eld band Cabaret Voltaire recalls in the late 1960s “being taken on school trips round the steelworks . just seeing it as a vision of hell, you know, never ever wanting to do that.”2 #is outdated hell smoldered in spite of the city’s supposed growth and improve- ment; a$er all, She!eld had signi%cantly enlarged its administrative territory in 1967, and a year later the M1 motorway opened easy passage to London 170 miles south, and wasn’t that progress? Institutional modernization neither erased northern England’s nineteenth- century combination of working-class pride and disenfranchisement nor of- fered many genuinely new possibilities within culture and labor, the Open Uni- versity notwithstanding. In literature and the arts, it was a long-acknowledged truism that any municipal attempt at utopia would result in totalitarianism.

  • Survival Research Laboratories: a Dystopian Industrial Performance Art
    arts Article Survival Research Laboratories: A Dystopian Industrial Performance Art Nicolas Ballet ED441 Histoire de l’art, Université Paris 1 Panthéon-Sorbonne, Galerie Colbert, 2 rue Vivienne, 75002 Paris, France; [email protected] Received: 27 November 2018; Accepted: 8 January 2019; Published: 29 January 2019 Abstract: This paper examines the leading role played by the American mechanical performance group Survival Research Laboratories (SRL) within the field of machine art during the late 1970s and early 1980s, and as organized under the headings of (a) destruction/survival; (b) the cyborg as a symbol of human/machine interpenetration; and (c) biomechanical sexuality. As a manifestation of the era’s “industrial” culture, moreover, the work of SRL artists Mark Pauline and Eric Werner was often conceived in collaboration with industrial musicians like Monte Cazazza and Graeme Revell, and all of whom shared a common interest in the same influences. One such influence was the novel Crash by English author J. G. Ballard, and which in turn revealed the ultimate direction in which all of these artists sensed society to be heading: towards a world in which sex itself has fallen under the mechanical demiurge. Keywords: biomechanical sexuality; contemporary art; destruction art; industrial music; industrial culture; J. G. Ballard; machine art; mechanical performance; Survival Research Laboratories; SRL 1. Introduction If the apparent excesses of Dada have now been recognized as a life-affirming response to the horrors of the First World War, it should never be forgotten that society of the 1960s, 70s, and 80s was laboring under another ominous shadow, and one that was profoundly technological in nature: the threat of nuclear annihilation.
