Iowa Journal of Cultural Studies is produced by The Berkeley Electronic Press (bepress). https://ir.uiowa.edu/ijcs Mediasprawl: Springfield U.S.A. Douglas Rushkoff The Simpsons are the closest thing in America to a national media literacy program. By pretending to be a kids’ cartoon, the show gets away with murder: that is, the virtual murder of our most coercive media iconography and techniques. For what began as entertaining interstitial material for an alternative network variety show has revealed itself, in the twenty-first century, as nothing short of a media revolu­ tion. Maybe that’s the very reason The Simpsons works so well. The Simpsons were bom to provide The Tracey Ullman Show with a way of cutting to commercial breaks. Their very function as a form of media was to bridge the discontinuity inherent to broadcast television. They existed to pave over the breaks. But rather than dampening the effects of these gaps in the broadcast stream, they heightened them. They acknowledged the jagged edges and recombinant forms behind the glossy patina of American television and, by doing so, initiated its deconstruction. They exist in the outlying suburbs of the American media landscape: the hinter­ lands of the Fox network. And living as they do—simultaneously a part of yet separate from the mainstream, primetime fare—they are able to bear witness to our cultural formulations and then comment upon them.

  • English Management Sociology
    Wintersession 2014 English CIN 372 W01: FILM GENRES: FILM NOIR (Fulfills LIT requirement or A&S elective): This course will closely examine the period of American filmmaking during and following WWII later labeled “Film Noir” as well as contemporary reinventions of the genre. The noir canon of films has been so categorized by their mood (bleakness, desperation, moral corruption), style (low-key and expressionistic lighting, deep focus), and characters (antiheroes, femmes fatales, doomed love). Exploring the cultural references to the more dark side of human nature, we will look at such films as They Live By Night and In a Lonely Place (Nicholas Ray), Touch of Evil (Orson Welles), Key Largo (John Huston), Mildred Pierce (Michael Curtiz), Double Indemnity and Sunset Boulevard (Billy Wilder), The Wrong Man (Alfred Hitchcock), Kiss Me Deadly (Robert Aldrich), and The Killing (Stanley Kubrick), as well as Post-noir and Neo Noir reinventions including Bonnie and Clyde (Arthur Penn), Chinatown (Roman Polanski), Blood Simple (Coen Bros.), Blade Runner (Ridley Scott), Pulp Fiction (Quentin Tarantino), Body Heat (Lawrence Kasdan), Lost Highway (David Lynch), Memento (Christopher Nolan), and A History of Violence (David Cronenberg), among others. We will also analyze how contemporary films, television dramas, and video games have incorporated certain aspects of noir; in particular, the male antihero (Breaking Bad, The Walking Dead), chiaroscuro lighting and cinematography as metaphor in television (Dexter, Mad Men), as well as the renewed interest in the genre as part of the game play in L.A. Noire. Management MG340A W01 Emotional Intelligence at Work PREQ: GB 215 The idea of emotional intelligence has been growing in interest during the last decade as an essential set of capacities and skills that complement and enhance the classic business focus on cognitive ability.

  • Stardom: Industry of Desire 1
    STARDOM What makes a star? Why do we have stars? Do we want or need them? Newspapers, magazines, TV chat shows, record sleeves—all display a proliferation of film star images. In the past, we have tended to see stars as cogs in a mass entertainment industry selling desires and ideologies. But since the 1970s, new approaches have explored the active role of the star in producing meanings, pleasures and identities for a diversity of audiences. Stardom brings together some of the best recent writing which represents these new approaches. Drawn from film history, sociology, textual analysis, audience research, psychoanalysis and cultural politics, the essays raise important questions for the politics of representation, the impact of stars on society and the cultural limitations and possibilities of stars. STARDOM Industry of Desire Edited by Christine Gledhill LONDON AND NEW YORK First published 1991 by Routledge 11 New Fetter Lane, London EC4P 4EE Simultaneously published in the USA and Canada by Routledge a division of Routledge, Chapman and Hall, Inc. 29 West 35th Street, New York, NY 10001 Routledge is an imprint of the Taylor & Francis Group This edition published in the Taylor & Francis e-Library, 2005. “To purchase your own copy of this or any of Taylor & Francis or Routledge’s collection of thousands of eBooks please go to www.eBookstore.tandf.co.uk.” © 1991 editorial matter, Christine Gledhill; individual articles © respective contributors All rights reserved.
