Well this is one of them, our fifth anniversary issue, weighing in at 96 pages, and with more than a third of them in colour. Five years ago this month BLITZ had its humble beginnings as a quarterly magazine run by two students from a college room and a local payphone. BLITZ grew so rapidly in circulation and reputation, winning the Guardian/NUS Best Graphics Award in 1981, that by the Autumn of 1982 the obvious thing to do was to relaunch the magazine on a professional basis from offices in ILondon. In September 1982 BLITZ became a glossy colour magazine, and went monthly the following April. In five years, withou any financial backing, and with a staff all aged 2S or under, BLITZ has grown into an international magazine reaching more than 60,000 people all over the world. During that time we've built up a team of some of the best young journalists and photographers in the country, and, despite a slight price increase this month, at 80p BLITZ is still better value than any other similar magazine on the market. Last year we promised you great things in the future. Well we've only just started . .. "Fragrance to suit your mood .. at the touch of a switch." According to the Charles of the Ritz group, the future of the fragrance market lies in its being airborne. As if to prove it, their subsidiary company, Environmental Fragrance Technologies, are about to introduce the patented Aroma D~sc system, consisting of a 'compact Aroma Disc player diffuser' and a selection of nine Aroma Disc fragrance 'records' Hard to believe, I know, but absolutely genuine. What you do is insert a scented aroma disc in the 'player', and within a few minutes it will begin to emit clouds of perfumed smoke that will rapidly spread throughout your residence, creating the olfactory illusion that you are living in a very large toilet. At the moment the choice of odours is a little limited, with six 'country blossom perfumes', including "Imperial Blossoms' ("a complex rich floral bouquet dominated by ylang-ylang and orange flower with a rich jasmine note...") and 'Flowering Woods' ("a beautiful, romatntic, innocent fragrance ... "), as well as three 'novelty' smells - no, not 'Armpit', 'Burning Rubber', or 'Methane', as you might have hoped, but actually the grotesque 'After Dinner Mints', the smoky 'Fireplace', and the decidedly woody 'Christmas Tree'. The future possibilities for mood enhancement are endless, of course - imagine 'Pepperoni Pizza' ("... for when you're feeling peckish ... ") or 'Spliff' ("Hard day at work l Why not mellow out with a marijuana aroma disci"). The Aroma Disc system is in the shops from October 1st, priced £15.95, and the discs cost £2.95 apiece. Me, I'll stick to my Glade air freshener. ro mElwl I; I II / 5 PEOPLE =-.(!:: ... told my mother I was leaving z to make a movie. She said, 'Oh, that's nice, dear'.

  • WTC SUMMER HOMEWORK Read Charting the History of British Music Video (MM66), by Emily Caston. (BELOW) Answer the Following Quest
    WTC SUMMER HOMEWORK Read Charting the History of British Music Video (MM66), by Emily Caston. (BELOW) Answer the following questions, drawing on the article for information and ideas. 1. According to the article’s writer, Emily Caston, how significant was MTV in the development of British music video production? 2. What criteria did Emily Caston and her team use for selecting music videos for their 6-DVD box set? What are your thoughts about the criteria? What music videos do you know that you would include in such a selection? 3. Bohemian Rhapsody is often quoted as being the first British music video. The article argues otherwise. Why is that? Why was ‘Bo-Rhap’ not included in the box set? 4. The box set is made up of six different categories: performance; concept; dance; stories; wit; portraits. If you were putting together a selection of videos, what categories would you choose to use? 5. The article ends by noting that videos are now consumed by millions globally, ‘uncurated on mobile platforms’. What might be the significance of a curated collection in light of these consumption patterns? Curating your own collection Imagine that you have been given the chance to curate a selection of music videos to represent your experience of secondary school, from the moment you joined until the end of Year 11. Select five videos that you want to include in your selection. Outline in writing what is significant about each video, both as an art form in its own right, and in relation to your time at secondary school.

    17th Biennial Conference of IASPM | Bridge Over Troubled Waters: Challenging Orthodoxies | Gijón 2013 Contents Welome 2 Conference programme 4 Abstracts 24 Panels 133 iaspm2013.espora.es 1 17th Biennial Conference of IASPM | Bridge Over Troubled Waters: Challenging Orthodoxies | Gijón 2013 Dear IASPM Conference Delegates, Welcome to Gijón, and to the 17th biennial IASPM Conference “Bridge over Troubled Waters”, a conference with participants from all over the world with the aim of bridging a gap between disciplines, perspectives and cultural contexts. We have received more than 500 submissions, of which some 300 made it to the programme, together with four outstanding keynote speakers. This Conference consolidates the increasing participation of Spanish delegates in previous conferences since the creation of the Spanish branch of IASPM in 1999, and reinforces the presence of Popular Music Studies at the Spanish universities and research groups. The University of Oviedo is one of the pioneer institutions in the Study of Popular Music in Spain; since the late nineties, this field of study is constantly growing due to the efforts of scholars and students that approach this repertoire from an interdisciplinary perspective. As for the place that hosts the conference, Gijón is an industrial city with an important music scene. I wouldn´t call it the Spanish Liverpool, but some critics called it the Spanish Seattle because it was an important place for the development of “noise music” in Spain during the 1990s. The venue, Laboral, is an exponent of the architecture of the dictatorship. Finished in 1956, it was conceived as a school for war orphans to learn a trade and in 2007 it was remodeled to become a “city for culture”.
