PERFORMED IDENTITIES: HEAVY METAL MUSICIANS BETWEEN 1984 and 1991 Bradley C. Klypchak a Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate
PERFORMED IDENTITIES: HEAVY METAL MUSICIANS BETWEEN 1984 AND 1991 Bradley C. Klypchak A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY May 2007 Committee: Dr. Jeffrey A. Brown, Advisor Dr. John Makay Graduate Faculty Representative Dr. Ron E. Shields Dr. Don McQuarie © 2007 Bradley C. Klypchak All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Dr. Jeffrey A. Brown, Advisor Between 1984 and 1991, heavy metal became one of the most publicly popular and commercially successful rock music subgenres. The focus of this dissertation is to explore the following research questions: How did the subculture of heavy metal music between 1984 and 1991 evolve and what meanings can be derived from this ongoing process? How did the contextual circumstances surrounding heavy metal music during this period impact the performative choices exhibited by artists, and from a position of retrospection, what lasting significance does this particular era of heavy metal merit today? A textual analysis of metal- related materials fostered the development of themes relating to the selective choices made and performances enacted by metal artists. These themes were then considered in terms of gender, sexuality, race, and age constructions as well as the ongoing negotiations of the metal artist within multiple performative realms. Occurring at the juncture of art and commerce, heavy metal music is a purposeful construction. Metal musicians made performative choices for serving particular aims, be it fame, wealth, or art. These same individuals worked within a greater system of influence. Metal bands were the contracted employees of record labels whose own corporate aims needed to be recognized. -

lieven ameel Helsinki in Early Twentieth-Century Literature Urban Experiences in Finnish Prose Fiction 1890–1940 Studia Fennica Litteraria The Finnish Literature Society (SKS) was founded in 1831 and has, from the very beginning, engaged in publishing operations. It nowadays publishes literature in the fields of ethnology and folkloristics, linguistics, literary research and cultural history. The first volume of the Studia Fennica series appeared in 1933. Since 1992, the series has been divided into three thematic subseries: Ethnologica, Folkloristica and Linguistica. Two additional subseries were formed in 2002, Historica and Litteraria. The subseries Anthropologica was formed in 2007. In addition to its publishing activities, the Finnish Literature Society maintains research activities and infrastructures, an archive containing folklore and literary collections, a research library and promotes Finnish literature abroad.

Programming Iot Devices by Demonstration Using Mobile Apps
Programming IoT Devices by Demonstration Using Mobile Apps Toby Jia-Jun Li1(✉), Yuanchun Li2, Fanglin Chen1, and Brad A. Myers1(✉) 1 Human-Computer Interaction Institute, Carnegie Mellon University, Pittsburgh, USA {tobyli,bam}@cs.cmu.edu, [email protected] 2 School of Electronics Engineering and Computer Science, Peking University, Beijing, China [email protected] Abstract. The revolutionary advances of Internet of Things (IoT) devices and applications have helped IoT emerge as an increasingly important domain for end-user development (EUD). Past research has shown that end users desire to create various customized automations, which would often utilize multiple IoT devices. Many solutions exist to support EUD across multiple IoT devices, but they are limited to devices from the same manufacturer, within the same “eco- system” or supporting a common API. We present EPIDOSITE, a mobile program‐ ming-by-demonstration system that addresses this limitation by leveraging the smartphone as a hub for IoT automation. It enables the creation of automations for most consumer IoT devices on smartphones by demonstrating the desired behaviors through directly manipulating the corresponding smartphone app for each IoT device. EPIDOSITE also supports using the smartphone app usage context and external web services as triggers and data for automations, enabling the crea‐ tion of highly context-aware IoT applications. Keywords: Internet of Things · Programming by demonstration · End user development 1 Introduction In the recent years, the rapid growth of Internet of Things (IoT) has surrounded users with various smart appliances, sensors and devices. Through their connections, these smart objects can understand and react to their environment, enabling novel computing applications [39]. -

This book is a general introduction to working at Link Motion. It talks about who we are and where we want to go. Much of what is said here is based on real experiences that we have gone through over the years. Many things have been learned the hard way and it is only appropriate to share our experiences. After you are done with this book, you should have a pretty good idea of what it is like to work with us. The book is full of tips and guidelines, but it does not contain detailed information about company policies, regulations or technical topics, which probably would have gotten outdated before we had managed to get this book out to print. -

Blinded and Confused: Uncovering Systemic Flaws in Device Telemetry for Smart-Home Internet of Things TJ OConnor, William Enck, Bradley Reaves {tjoconno,whenck,bgreaves}@ncsu.edu North Carolina State University ABSTRACT 1 INTRODUCTION The always-on, always-connected nature of smart home devices The rapid growth of smart-home IoT devices oers convenience, complicates Internet-of-Things (IoT) security and privacy. Unlike connecting us to a broad-array of sensors and actuators in our traditional hosts, IoT devices constantly send sensor, state, and homes. The always-responsive nature of IoT provides on-demand heartbeat data to cloud-based servers. These data channels require access to seamlessly monitor and control every aspect of our homes. reliable, routine communication, which is often at odds with an For example, smart-locks allow us to remotely schedule and control IoT device’s storage and power constraints.

Translating Multicultural Style in Maxine Hong Kingston's The
UNIVERSITY OF JYVÄSKYLÄ LOST IN TRANSLATION? Translating multicultural style in Maxine Hong Kingston’s The Woman Warrior A Pro Gradu Thesis in English by Carla-Rose Häkkinen Department of Languages 2006 HUMANISTINEN TIEDEKUNTA KIELTEN LAITOS Carla-Rose Häkkinen LOST IN TRANSLATION? Translating multicultural style in Maxine Hong Kingston’s The Woman Warrior Pro gradu –tutkielma Englannin kieli Syyskuu 2006 120 sivua + 1 liite Opinnäytetyön tarkoituksena on tutkia tyyliä ja monikulttuurisuutta kiinalaisamerikkalaisen Maxine Hong Kingstonin teoksen The Woman Warrior (1976) suomentamisessa. Teoksen toinen luku on käännetty analyysia varten, mutta teosta ja sen taustaa tarkastellaan myös kokonaisuutena. Tutkimuskysymykset ovat seuraavat: 1) Millainen on lähtötekstin tyyli? 2) Miten monikulttuurisuus ilmenee lähtötekstissä? ja 3) Miten tyyli ja monikulttuurisuus välittyvät kohdetekstiin? Tutkielman teoreettinen viitekehys koostuu lähinnä ns. ideologisesta sekä funktionaalisesta käännösteoriasta. Tutkielman analyysiosiossa käsitellään myös kielitieteellisiä kysymyksiä. Käännösanalyysin pääasiallisena metodina käytetään Christiane Nordin funktionaalista tekstianalyysimallia. Analyysin keskeisiä käsitteitä ovat tyyli, kulttuurispesifisyys, kotouttaminen, sekä kaksi eri vieraannuttamisen lajia (foreignization ja defamiliarization). Analyysi tarkastelee lähtötekstiä ja kohdetekstiä rinta rinnan, ja käännösratkaisuja perustellaan käännöksen skopoksen valossa. Analyysin tulokset osoittavat, että lähtötekstin tyylille ominaisia piirteitä ovat ilmaisun -
