    Bilderna av Kent 10/13/03 8:13 Volume 6 (2003) © Lars Lilliestam, 2003 Bilderna av Kent En fallstudie av musikjournalistik, autenticitet och musikmytologi Lars Lilliestam INLEDNING [1] Musik och berättande Musik är mer än bara musik. Musik är mer än det som klingar. Vi hör alltid musik genom filter av förförståelse, förväntningar, fördomar eller kunskaper. Om man vill försöka förstå vilken verkan musik har och vad den betyder för människor, måste man ta i beaktande vad människor berättar om musiken. Berättandet – vad som skrivs om musik och hur människor talar om musik – laddar musiken med föreställningar, ideologier, värden. Mening uppstår när musiken, människan och berättelserna om musiken möts. Vi tänker, talar eller läser om musik för att bearbeta och jämföra våra egna upplevelser med andras. Genom denna process skapar och utvecklar vi en inre bild av musiken och upplevelsen av den. Berättelser om musiker, musikskapare, musikverk eller låtar, gåtor och oklarheter i verks historia, uttolkningar, tragiska eller på annat sätt fascinerande och gripande levnadsöden och skandaler färgar upplevelsen av musiken. Tänk på historierna om Beethovens dövhet, skandalerna vid premiären av Stravinskijs Våroffer 1913, Bob Dylans framträdande vid Newport Folk Festival 1965, eller mysteriet kring bluessångerskan Bessie Smiths död... Kring artister och genrer spinns en samling berättelser och anekdoter (skrönor, myter, legender) av olika slag – ett narrativ. Dessa berättelser sprids i olika former (intervjuer, reportage, biografier, historiska översikter, recensioner, krönikor) i olika medier (fack- och dagspress, böcker, tv, radio, internet) och muntligen man och man emellan i ett komplicerat och näst intill oöverblickbart spel. Vissa berättelser kan vara skapade av exempelvis ett skivbolag i syfte att understryka en viss image, andra har sitt upphov bland publik, fans eller skribenter.

  • The Uses of Animation 1
    The Uses of Animation 1 1 The Uses of Animation ANIMATION Animation is the process of making the illusion of motion and change by means of the rapid display of a sequence of static images that minimally differ from each other. The illusion—as in motion pictures in general—is thought to rely on the phi phenomenon. Animators are artists who specialize in the creation of animation. Animation can be recorded with either analogue media, a flip book, motion picture film, video tape,digital media, including formats with animated GIF, Flash animation and digital video. To display animation, a digital camera, computer, or projector are used along with new technologies that are produced. Animation creation methods include the traditional animation creation method and those involving stop motion animation of two and three-dimensional objects, paper cutouts, puppets and clay figures. Images are displayed in a rapid succession, usually 24, 25, 30, or 60 frames per second. THE MOST COMMON USES OF ANIMATION Cartoons The most common use of animation, and perhaps the origin of it, is cartoons. Cartoons appear all the time on television and the cinema and can be used for entertainment, advertising, 2 Aspects of Animation: Steps to Learn Animated Cartoons presentations and many more applications that are only limited by the imagination of the designer. The most important factor about making cartoons on a computer is reusability and flexibility. The system that will actually do the animation needs to be such that all the actions that are going to be performed can be repeated easily, without much fuss from the side of the animator.

  • A Prairie Home Companion”: First Broadcast (July 6, 1974) Added to the National Registry: 2003 Essay by Chuck Howell (Guest Post)*
    “A Prairie Home Companion”: First Broadcast (July 6, 1974) Added to the National Registry: 2003 Essay by Chuck Howell (guest post)* Garrison Keillor “Well, it's been a quiet week in Lake Wobegon, Minnesota, my hometown, out on the edge of the prairie.” On July 6, 1974, before a crowd of maybe a dozen people (certainly less than 20), a live radio variety program went on the air from the campus of Macalester College in St. Paul, MN. It was called “A Prairie Home Companion,” a name which at once evoked a sense of place and a time now past--recalling the “Little House on the Prairie” books, the once popular magazine “The Ladies Home Companion” or “The Prairie Farmer,” the oldest agricultural publication in America (founded 1841). The “Prairie Farmer” later bought WLS radio in Chicago from Sears, Roebuck & Co. and gave its name to the powerful clear channel station, which blanketed the middle third of the country from 1928 until its sale in 1959. The creator and host of the program, Garrison Keillor, later confided that he had no nostalgic intent, but took the name from “The Prairie Home Cemetery” in Moorhead, MN. His explanation is both self-effacing and humorous, much like the program he went on to host, with some sabbaticals and detours, for the next 42 years. Origins Gary Edward “Garrison” Keillor was born in Anoka, MN on August 7, 1942 and raised in nearby Brooklyn Park. His family were not (contrary to popular opinion) Lutherans, instead belonging to a strict fundamentalist religious sect known as the Plymouth Brethren.
