Minoritarian Music Revisiting Musical Noise Through UNIVERSITY OF AMSTERDAM MINORITARIAN MUSIC REVISITING MUSICAL NOISE THROUGH CINEMA OF JIM JARMUSCH A Master's Thesis by Lev Fišer, a student of Arts and Culture: Music Studies, Graduate School of Humanities, University of Amsterdam supervisor: prof. dr. Julia Kursell, Second reader: prof. dr. Barbara Titus, Academic year 2017/2018 Acknowledgements I express my warmest gratitude to prof. dr. Julia Kursell, my supervisor, and prof. dr. Barbara Titus, the second reader. They gave me considerably more than merely official supervision and grading. During their lectures and consultations with them, I have gained knowledge to be cherished for years to come. This text would not exist without infallible support of my family. My parents have represented a point of stability in a life of uncertainty both in research and beyond. My friends can never be thanked enough for their kindness and reassurance. * * * Ministry of Culture of Republic of Slovenia ensured that my research was generously financed, for which I remain thankful. The ministry provided me with a grant for the entire academic year. Abstract The goal of this thesis is to approach the music that is used by Jim Jarmusch in The Limits of Control (2009), a film he scripted and directed. On the basis of close listening and viewing, selected songs from the soundtrack were read as minoritarian music. Minoritarian music is a term newly introduced in this thesis, and it serves to conceptualise the particular musical expression either created or insterted by Jarmusch into his film. It is an attempt to (re)theorize musical noise and timbre. During the course of the research, significant correlations with the idea of the minor by Gilles Deleuze and Félix Guattari were observed. Hence, findings of their work have been included into the argument in favour of minoritarian music. The soundtrack case studies are songs and song excerpts by the groups Bad Rabbit, Boris, Sunn O))), and The Black Angels. They are based on electric guitar distortion, monotonous repetition, and superposition of disparate timbres. A comparative case study analysis to once again scrutinize the concept of minoritarian music is also included.

Sometimes, what seems banal might not be such at all. Uncertainty remains regardless of experience, knowledge, and intuition giving the verdict of banality. Such disposition rarely seems to coincide with a scrutiny of our judgement. Understanding seemingly trivial things according to their proper content is central to the films of Jim Jarmusch. It deeply relates to their music as well. The object of this research are the songs of a 2009 film that he scripted and directed, The Limits of Control. The film takes place in today's Spain. A mysterious loner is hired to carry out a criminal job. His contacts only give him cryptical information about things he needs to do to reach his target. The assignment involves countless hours of waiting. Days sometimes pass without him meeting anybody. He is often instructed to wait at a café, where time elapses as he observes the world go by with people attending to their daily errands, birds flying, bells ringing. There are occasions when he is joined by one of the informants. He silently listens to their tirades on art, science, human perception, and history. Each interlocutor tells about a different discipline – music, cinema, science, art in general, hallucination. The lone protagonist then presents a matchbox he has been given by the previous contact. The boxes contain coded messages which he promptly reads and swallows. By starting each day with tai-chi exercises, he trains the awareness of the surroundings. When in Madrid, he makes four visits to modern art gallery Reina Sofia, and views four different paintings in total, immersed in art and his relentless concentration. It may be the case that this film requires repeated viewings, since it lacks a coherent plot to immerse the viewer. Whereas the story is simplistic, the film's power lies in its atmosphere, determined by thought-out frame composition and music. In fact, the latter was so important to the director that he decided to record some of it himself – in cooperation with a band that he at that time was a member of, Bad Rabbit. It is here that our critical doubt may arise once again. How can something that is exclusively atmospherical contain artistic value? Should we assume that there is no artistic value, but a different meaning behind, what could that be? Rather than a cinematic work that addresses the thinking viewer explicitly, The Limits of Control leaves a bothering imprint on one's artistic 5 perception. Not particularly fulfilling or pleasant at first, it is a bothering piece of cinema that burns slowly inside us, questioning our critical judgement of film – and especially music. How can the impact of music in Jim Jarmusch's The Limits of Control on me as a viewer be explained? How can the meaning conveyed by this music be theorized, and which musicological frameworks correspond to it? How can a subjective interpretation of cinematic music be articulated as a general approach to music listening? This thesis argues that despite the fact that any film music is embedded in cinematic narrative, film serves not only – or even not at all – as a skeleton for the songs to tie upon. Instead, it provides a superposition of meaning to the music. In The Limits of Control, this makes the music convey its proper substance whether it is reproduced in- or outside of the film. The case studies are used to prove this. Along with the film by Jarmusch as a primary research object, a Yorgos Lanthimos film from 2015 will serve as secondary case study to conduct a comparative analysis. The Lobster is considered for its recurring use of Beethoven's String Quartet op. 18, no.1, second movement. The test analysis proposes that any cinematic music can become minoritarian if minoritarian framing is imposed on it. However, the comparative enquiry also shows that music turned minoritarian by sound imposition does not exist outside of the imposing context. Selected excerpts in The Lobster show another, contextually confined way of music becoming minoritarian whereas The Limits of Control represent a source of minoritarian music that has place even outside of cinematic context. Music in Jarmusch's films is given a concise coverage in Sara Piazza's Jim Jarmusch: Music, Words and Noise. The book provides an engaging comparison betwen the earlier films – his graduation attempt Permanent Vacation, and a project where Jarmusch worked together with Wim Wenders – Lightning over Water, directed by Wenders and Nicholas Ray. Piazza compares the films' concluding sequences, but stops at short descriptions of their music, even though it is the sountrack that she claims to be a decisive factor in the comparison.1 More importantly, she touches upon the power of music's projection,

  • 1 Ma, Mu and the Interstice: Meditative Form in the Cinema of Jim
    1 Ma, Mu and the Interstice: Meditative Form in the Cinema of Jim Jarmusch Roy Daly, Independent Scholar Abstract: This article focuses on the centrality of the interstice to the underlying form of three of Jim Jarmusch’s films, namely, Stranger Than Paradise (1984), Dead Man (1995) and The Limits of Control (2009). It posits that the specificity of this form can be better understood by underlining its relation to aspects of Far Eastern form. The analysis focuses on the aforementioned films as they represent the most fully-fledged examples of this overriding aesthetic and its focus on interstitial space. The article asserts that a consistent aesthetic sensibility pervades the work of Jarmusch and that, by exploring the significance of the Japanese concepts of mu and ma, the atmospheric and formal qualities of this filmmaker’s work can be elucidated. Particular emphasis is paid to the specific articulation of time and space and it is argued that the films achieve a meditative form due to the manner in which they foreground the interstice, transience, temporality and subjectivity. The cinema of Jim Jarmusch is distinctive for its focus on the banal and commonplace, as well as its rejection of narrative causality and dramatic arcs in favour of stories that are slight and elliptical. Night on Earth (1991), a collection of five vignettes that occur simultaneously in separate taxis in five different cities, explores the interaction between people within the confined space of a taxi cab and the narrow time-frame necessitated by such an encounter, while Coffee and Cigarettes (2004) focuses on similarly themed conversations that take place mostly in small cafes.1 The idea of restricting a film to such simple undertakings is indicative of Jarmusch’s commitment to exploring underdeveloped moments of narrative representation.

Thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy March 2019 0 ABSTRACT This thesis employs popular culture texts (works of literature, film, and popular music) as companions to the understanding of contemporary America. It is about artworks that form a cultural resistance that enables the appreciation of social issues and cultural decline in the United States. The authors of these artworks are novelist Paul Auster, filmmaker Jim Jarmusch, and musician Tom Waits. Born between the late 1940s and the early 1950s, in different parts of the United States, Auster, Jarmusch, and Waits have produced a series of works that share strong similarities. In their novels, films, and songs, they portray an imagined “Other America” that is in stark contrast with the idyllic vision of the American Dream. Their America does not coincide with conventional middle-class values and goals of success, money and social upward mobility. It is an open, tolerant, and egalitarian country inhabited by marginalized “other Americans” who never escape from poverty and failure.

  • The Global Art Cinema of Jim Jarmusch
    Arbitrary Reality: The Global Art Cinema of Jim Jarmusch By Copyright 2012 Eric Lackey Submitted to the graduate degree program in Film and Media Studies and the Graduate Faculty of the University of Kansas in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts. ________________________________ Chairperson Dr. Chuck Berg ________________________________ Dr. Catherine Preston ________________________________ Professor Kevin Willmott Date Defended: July 23, 2012 ii The Thesis Committee for Eric Lackey certifies that this is the approved version of the following thesis: Arbitrary Reality: The Global Art Cinema of Jim Jarmusch ________________________________ Chairperson: Dr. Chuck Berg Date approved: July 26, 2012 iii Abstract The cinema of American filmmaker Jim Jarmusch resists many attempts at categorization. This thesis examines Jarmusch’s cinema within the context of both American independent cinema studies and global art cinema studies. This is accomplished by considering Jarmusch’s independent cinema as an intersection between the two areas and by linking the global to the singular case of Jarmusch. The periodization of this study is between 1980 and 2009 when Jarmusch’s feature film production illustrates a conscious engagement with global art cinema. The details of how his films were financed, exhibited, and distributed, and the development of the contemporary American independent cinema scene during this time, help to establish both Jarmusch’s independence and his alignment with global art cinema. The industrial framework Jarmusch established provides an economic structure that sustains his work to the present. Textual analysis of the films Dead Man (1995), Ghost Dog: The Way of the Samurai (2000), Broken Flowers (2005), and The Limits of Control (2009), reveals an approach to mise- en-scene and narrative that corresponds more closely with global art cinema than with most Hollywood films.

  • Draculas Vermächtnis: Jim Jarmuschs ONLY LOVERS LEFT ALIVE (2013)
    PhiN-Beiheft 23/2020: 109 Kathrin Fehringer (München) What do records do? Jim Jarmusch's vampire story unfolds around the medium of the record, dealing with old stories from Stoker to Frankenstein to Friedrich Kittler's Dracula's Legacy. Focusing on seven verbs in Jarmusch's story as key words, this essay examines the record as a medium through the lens of cultural techniques. It understands records as practiced objects that only work in a network, where they assemble (technical) objects, figures, and operations that are dynamically linked. With Kittler, one must finally ask: what do (cinema) love stories have to do with records? Draculas Vermächtnis: Jim Jarmuschs ONLY LOVERS LEFT ALIVE (2013) Here I go, Falling down, down, down, My mind is a blank, My head is spinning around and around, As I go deep into the funnel of love. It's such a crazy, crazy feeling, I get weak in the knees, My poor old head is a reelin', As I go deep into the funnel of love. I tried and I tried, to run and hide, I even tried to run away, You just can't run from the funnel of love, It's gonna get you someday. Wanda Jackson (1961) Am Anfang war die Schallplatte: Jim Jarmuschs ONLY LOVERS LEFT ALIVE (GB/D 2013) beginnt mit einem sich drehenden Sternenhimmel. Mit der Kreisbewegung des Bildes im Uhrzeigersinn laufen die Lichtpunkte zu gewölbten Strichen auf schwarzem Grund aus. Dann verrät sich plötzlich ein Tonabnehmer mit einem mechanischen Klack (OLLA, 00:01:12). Es knackt, es rauscht, der Sound setzt ein: eine langsame Underground-Version von Wanda Jacksons Funnel of Love.
