  • Protecting Audiences in an Online World
    Protecting Audiences in an online world Appendices Prepared for Ofcom 1 Appendix A: Research approach – additional details Stimuli development, cognitive testing and piloting A series of cognitive interviews were conducted at the outset of the project to test the usability of the research materials and to ensure that the information and terminology included were readily understood. The cognitive fieldwork was carried out in Greater London, with each interview lasting around an hour. The sample for the cognitive interviews is summarised in the table below: Table: Cognitive testing sample matrix AV tech Age band Life stage Gender SEG engagement 18‐24 Pre‐family – flown the nest Male ABC1 High 25‐34 Young family Female C2DE Low DAY 1 35‐54 Older family Male ABC1 High 55+ Empty nester/retired Female C2DE Low DAY 2 REVIEW and REVISE MATERIALS 16‐17 Pre family – living at home Female C2DE High 25‐34 Young couple / family Male C2DE High DAY 3 35‐54 Young / older family Female ABC1 Low 55+ Empty nester/retired Male ABC1 Low Note: Cognitive testing fieldwork conducted Wednesday 9th to Friday 11th July 2014 The sample design for the cognitive interviews covered a range of key variables to sufficiently test the research materials amongst a broad range of AV consumers. The variables included a demographic spread, encompassing age, life stage, gender, and social grade. In addition, the interviews included a mixture of high and low engagers with AV technology. The high AV tech engagers were defined as those watching content on a range of devices, and frequently recording content and using catch‐up or on‐demand services.

  • AVANT-POP 101. Here's a List of Works That Helped to Shape Avant-Pop Ideology and Aesthetics, Along with Books, Albums, Films, T
    Larry McCaffery AVANT-POP 101. Here's a list of works that helped to shape Avant-Pop ideology and aesthetics, along with books, albums, films, television shows, works of criticism, and other cultural artifacts by the Avant-Pop artists themselves, in roughly chronological order. PRECURSORS: The Odyssey (Homer, c. 700 B.C.). Homer's The Odyssey had it all: a memorable, larger-than-life super-hero (Ulysses); a war grand enough that its name alone (Trojan) is still used to sell condoms; descriptions of travels through exotic places; hideous bad-guys (like the Cyclops) and bad gals (Circe); an enduring love affair (Penelope); a happy ending. Commentators have long regarded The Odyssey as Western literature's first epic and masterpiece. What hasn't been noted until now, however, is that its central features—for instance, its blend of high seriousness with popular culture, a self-conscious narrator, magical realism, appropriation, plagiarism, casual blending of historical materials with purely invented ones, foregrounding of its own artifice, reflexivity, the use of montage and jump cuts—also made it the first postmodern, A-P masterpiece, as well. Choju giga (Bishop Toba, 12th century). Choju giga—or the "Animal Scrolls," as Toba's work is known—was a narrative picture scroll that portrayed, among other things, Walt Disney-style anthropomorphized animals engaged in a series of wild (and occasionally wildly erotic) antics that mocked Toba's own calling (the Buddhist clergy); in its surrealist blend of nightmare and revelry, Toba Choju giga can rightly be said to be the origins not only of cartoons but of an avant-pop aesthetics of cartoon forms that successfully serve "serious" purposes of satire, philosophical speculation and social commentary.
