Locked Inside Bio LOCKED INSIDE BIO New York City – the original melting pot; pulling in all walks of life from all parts of the planet, has always been a hotbed for underground, youth-culture movements. New York is the city that turned punk rock into hardcore, imported kids from from CT and NJ and turned a drug-addled dive bar into the worldwide center for the Straight Edge Hardcore movement of the late 1980s (transplanted from further away in DC and Boston and boiled down to a powder-keg of aggressive but positive hardcore on the Lower East Side). And decades after NYC galvanized the Youth Crew Straight Edge Hardcore scene, it finally has a new band carrying the banner that Youth Of Today, Judge, Project X, and Gorilla Biscuits waved before them. Locked Inside is made up of veterans of the NY, NJ, Colombia and Argentina hardcore scenes, all finding themselves residents of the NY Metro area with a common interest in bringing back the music and the message that once emanated from their common home. With a musical background running the gamut from traditional Straight Edge Hardcore to even more metal- influenced hardcore (the bands pedigree including Mouthpiece, Youth Of Today, Nueva Etica, and more), they bring a seasoned approach and precise musicianship to the table; offering a clear-minded take on heavy-but-traditional hardcore, with a searing recording produced by close friend Javi Cassas, guitarist of Argentinian Vegan Straight Edge powerhouse Nueva Etica. While the members all contribute to the music and have found a great balance in playing fast, traditional hardcore with a heavier attack and extreme precision, singer Ed McKirdy has a distinct mission: rising above what divides us and seeking out what brings us together, at the same time keeping the content unabashedly Straight Edge. Leaving no room to wander off track lyrically, he hits the subject of temperance again and again as a means of personal progress and escape from the insanity of the modern world.

An impossible task some say. Therefore the European Broadcasting Union is proud to have brought together 18 Members in 14 countries for the Generation What project which launched in April 2016 and gave a voice to this generation, a generation with a optimistic perspective of the future, as it turns out. Since then nearly a million young people have been given the opportunity by public service media (PSM) to speak up and to be heard. This “millennial” generation will, in the near future, be responsible for our continent so it is valuable to hear their voice and learn from what the survey has revealed. Public service media is not just listening though but providing a platform to build bridges, not just between generations but between citizens and the institutions that influence their lives. Generation What shall be the start of an increased dialogue between young people in the various countries, institutions, governments and the EU.

  • Here Were Homeless People All Around Us and a Lot of Fighting Going On
    GUILT Ati Moran (Breaking Free Fanzine) on hardcore: Hardcore for me is definitely an idea, an expression of feelings and [an attitude of] never giving up on what you believe in. [It’s] an emotion you feel strong about that no one can take away from you! I also be- lieve hardcore has a lot to do with the people I met in the last 22 years who were apart of the scene - they weren’t everyday people. Besides hardcore being music, it was a place to get away from the normal world! Charles Maggio (Rorschach, Gern Blandsten Records) on hardcore: John Brannon said it best: hardcore is the “blues of the suburbs.” QUICKsaND Walter Schreifels (Quicksand, Gorilla Biscuits) on fighting/ disagreements in hardcore: In the scene there were homeless people all around us and a lot of fighting going on. There was the whole punks versus skins thing. There was that back drop, so it was a pretty obvious place to say something about it, and it’s cool to have a scene that allows for that discussion. That’s what gives it power in a way. The hardcore scene is like high school. There’s the typical bullshit that goes on everywhere, but it’s cooler because it’s like a musical high school and there’s something kind of romantic about that. There was also a lot of back and forth between hip- hop and hardcore at the time, too. There was a time when there was a lot of racism but there was a whole backlash against that.

Briefly describe the rationale for assignment to foundation area(s) and subgroup(s) chosen. This course falls into social analysis and visual and performance arts analysis and practice because it shows how punk, as a subculture, has influenced alternative economic practices, led to political mobilization, and challenged social norms. This course situates the activity of listening to punk music in its broader cultural ideologies, such as the DIY (do-it-yourself) ideal, which includes nontraditional musical pedagogy and composition, cooperatively owned performance venues, and underground distribution and circulation practices. Students learn to analyze punk subculture as an alternative social formation and how punk productions confront and are times co-opted by capitalistic logic and normative economic, political and social arrangements. 3.

  • YOUTH and NEWS in a DIGITAL MEDIA ENVIRONMENT • Nordic-Baltic Perspectives • Yvonne Andersson, Ulf Dalquist & Jonas Ohlsson (Eds.)
    YOUTH AND NEWS IN A DIGITAL MEDIA ENVIRONMENT • IN A DIGITAL AND NEWS YOUTH Ongoing digitalization has fundamentally transformed the entire media landscape, not least the domain of news. The blurring of previously sharp distinctions between production, distribution and consumption have challenged the established news industry and brought into question long-held assumptions of what journalism is or should be, who is a journalist and how we define, consume and use “news”. This ant- hology aims to shed light on the implications of these transformations for young pe- ople in the Nordic and Baltic countries. It focuses on three themes: youth participating in news and information production; news production by established media organiza- tions and novel information providers aimed at children and youth; news use among youth. Taken together, the chapters illustrate the complexity of news use among youth and offer some rather different examples of strategies that news organizations might consider for reaching young people with news – or involving them in the production of news. Furthermore, the book might serve as a basis for reflecting on the urgent, but Perspectives Nordic-Baltic cumbersome, area of media and information literacy in these media saturated times. Youth and News in a Digital Media Environment consists of contributions from Norway, Denmark, Finland, Sweden and Estonia, written by scholars and people working in the media industry. The target audience of this book is students, professionals and • Yvonne Andersson, Ulf Dalquist & Jonas Ohlsson (eds.)
