BLANCHARD* Three decades ago, Leonard W. Levy surveyed early American history and advanced the theory that the vaunted free press tradition was more myth than reality.' Such a supposition out- raged critics, who felt that Levy had tampered 'with evidence and had tarnished the image of a value central to the nation's development. 2 The attacks on his work were so vehement that, twenty-five years after the publication of the original study, Professor Levy revised his earlier work and tempered its findings to indicate that perhaps a tradition of press freedom had been developing in the nation after all and that his phrase "legacy of suppression" was too harsh.3 The controversy over the Levy book reflects, in part, the importance of the free press lobby among American historians, lawyers, and journalists.

  • The Performance and Reception of Flash Mobs: Authenticity, Youtube, and the Fantastic
    THE PERFORMANCE AND RECEPTION OF FLASH MOBS: AUTHENTICITY, YOUTUBE, AND THE FANTASTIC BY BENJAMIN JOSEPH GAILEY DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Theatre with a minor in Cinema Studies in the Graduate College of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, 2015 Urbana, Illinois Doctoral Committee: Associate Professor Peter Davis, Chair Associate Professor Valleri Robinson Associate Head of the Department of Theatre Tom Mitchell Course Director of Communication Mardia Bishop ABSTRACT This dissertation analyzes the performance methodology and reception of various flash mobs performed from 2003 to 2015. This twelve year history is separated into three periods. The first period consists of Bill Wasik’s initial flash mob performances, a series of eight events known as the Mob Project. These performances establish the three commonalities I use to define and identify flash mob performance- the anonymity between performer and spectator, the overloading of space, and the performance of incongruous action. The second period begins with the popularity of the T-Mobile flash mob commercial “Dance,” which introduced the use of a Protagonist and the “performer/spectator.” The third period is characterized by the use of flash mobs as advertisements by sponsoring organizations in order to achieve authentic alignment between themselves and their audience. All three periods are unified by a common potential reception on the part of the spectator- a reception that corresponds to Tzvetan Todorov’s theory of the Fantastic. ii ACKNOWLEDGMENTS First and foremost, I wish to thank the members of my committee- Peter Davis, Valleri Robinson, Tom Mitchell, and Mardia Bishop.

Las multitudes inteligentes de la era digital http://www.revista.unam.mx/vol.7/num6/art48/int48.htm LAS MULTITUDES INTELIGENTES DE LA ERA DIGITAL Resumen Este estudio analiza de qué manera los últimos desarrollos de Internet ofrecen una “arquitectura de la participación” con directas repercusiones en los movimientos sociales contemporáneos. En esta transformación se incluyen blogs, wikis, P2P, además de un largo listado de herramientas en línea. Esta evolución digital es de carácter tecnológico, pero habla de una nueva filosofía de la WWW con directa incidencia en la conformación de nuevas dinámicas de construcción del capital social (conocimiento colectivo) en el contexto de la Sociedad del Conocimiento. Una de las implicancias más relevantes de esta transformación, denominada web 2.0, tiene relación con los nuevos espacios de articulación civil. El mejor ejemplo de este fenómeno ha sido la consolidación de los denominados flash mob (movilizaciones instantáneas) que se están realizando en todo el mundo, los cuales permiten articular a grandes cantidades de individuos para manifestarse y organizarse colectivamente, a través de las nuevas tecnologías de información y comunicación.

  • Flash Mobs: Social Construction of Public Spaces As Places for Sociability & Public Discourse
    Flash Mobs: Social Construction of Public Spaces as Places for Sociability & Public Discourse “What is the Citie, but the People? True, the People are the Citie” – (Shakespeare, Coriolanus, act 3, scene 1) Master Thesis Report Research Master of Human Geography and Planning Author Supervisors Mila Stamenova Dr. I.C. van Liempt [email protected] Prof.Dr. Rob van der Vaart Faculty of Geosciences Utrecht University March, 2014 Key words public space, flash mob, public discourse, sociability Abstract According to Young’s normative definition, public spaces should be cosmopolitan places where people from different backgrounds can meet and learn from each other, resulting in new insights and new tolerant social relationships (Young, 1990), however, many scholars have pointed out to the apparent decline in importance of public space for sociability and public discourse (Sennett, 1977, 1992; Sorkin, 1992; Mitchell, 1995). Nonetheless, the flash mob phenomenon, as an ephemeral and partially extemporaneous social event occurring in public space, might provide counter argumentation to the apparent decline of public spaces. Recognizing its increasing popularity and practice over time, scholars in the field of anthropology, sociology and media studies have examined the sociological and ICT aspects of flash mobs (Rheingold, 2003; Nicholson, 2005; Gore, 2010; Molnàr, 2010; Rodriguez, 2010), yet, no urban geographical research has attempted to understand this phenomenon and its relation to the public spaces where it occurs. Thus, utilizing a humanistic approach to the geography of flash mobs, this study aims to understand the affect of the flash mob phenomenon on the social construction of public spaces. Through Lefebvre’s (1991) spatial triad of space construction and Tuan’s (1977) perspective of experience, the research will examine how people socially construct public spaces through their ephemeral flash mob experiences.
