  • Warburton, John Henry. (2010). Picture Radio
    ! ∀# ∃ !∃%& ∋ ! (()(∗( Picture Radio: Will pictures, with the change to digital, transform radio? John Henry Warburton Master of Philosophy Southampton Solent University Faculty of Media, Arts and Society July 2010 Tutor Mike Richards 3 of 3 Picture Radio: Will pictures, with the change to digital, transform radio? By John Henry Warburton Abstract This work looking at radio over the last 80 years and digital radio today will consider picture radio, one way that the recently introduced DAB1 terrestrial digital radio could be used. Chapter one considers the radio history including early picture radio and television, plus shows how radio has come from the crystal set, with one pair of headphones, to the mains powered wireless with built in speakers. These radios became the main family entertainment in the home until television takes over that role in the mid 1950s. Then radio changed to a portable medium with the coming of transistor radios, to become the personal entertainment medium it is today. Chapter two and three considers the new terrestrial digital mediums of DAB and DRM2 plus how it works, what it is capable of plus a look at some of the other digital radio platforms. Chapter four examines how sound is perceived by the listener and that radio broadcasters will need to understand the relationship between sound and vision. We receive sound and then make pictures in the mind but to make sense of sound we need codes to know what it is and make sense of it. Chapter five will critically examine the issues of commercial success in radio and where pictures could help improve the radio experience as there are some things that radio is restricted to as a sound only medium.

    3 Pain, Misery, Hate and Love All at Once A THEOLOGY OF SUFFERING I remember the period well. It was the months following the 1992 LA Riots. We were young, full of energy, and having bore witness to the destructive forces that tore our community apart, we wanted to change the direction of the ‘hood. So what did we do? We organized gangs, nonprofits and people with like-minded worldviews to create something that had never been done, a gang truce. A fifteen-city organizational effort involving gang leaders, commu- nity organizations and rappers like Tupac, the then lesser known Snoop Dogg and former members of NWA, as well as people who wanted to see a change from the violence of the 1980s, put together posters, banners, flyers and events that helped put a message of peace out in the commu- nity. Large gangs like the Crips and the Bloods came to park BBQ’s to celebrate the newfound peace. MTV covered many of the events. For the first time it seemed as though urban peace was beginning to take shape. I was truly amazed. Especially being as angry as I was after the Rodney King trial verdict, I was beginning to see some change that I could be a part of. We decided that each city needed to take their concerns to City SoulOfHipHop.indb 75 4/26/10 11:13:30 AM 76 THE SOUL OF HIP HOP Hall.

  • The Rule of the Community of Saint Mary: a Study in Development
    The Rule of the Community of Saint Mary: A Study in Development By the Reverend Dr. Terrence Gleeson Introduction N THE SECOND HALF of the nineteenth century, in New York City, William Augustus Muhlenberg, an Episcopal priest of the evangelical school Iand Lutheran background, Harriet Starr Cannon, a music teacher of reduced circumstances and an indifferent education, and Morgan Dix, another Episcopal priest belonging to New York’s most distinguished social register and high church party, managed between them to usher into existence one of the most successful religious congregations of the American Episcopal Church. The only thing this unlikely trio shared was absolutely no experience of the religious life. Religious congregations were taking their first tentative steps in the Anglican Communion. The Tractarian movement had polarised Anglican opinion, and ensured that any appearance of Romanism would be met with suspicion and virulent criticism. Roman Catholics themselves often regarded these new religious as impostors and charlatans, and were not above hurling abuse at them, both from the pulpit and on the street.1 This essay will pursue the development of an idea—the idea of an Episcopalian religious order for women—as it was shaped by the personalities, theories, prejudices, and experiences of Drs. Muhlenberg and Dix and Mother Harriet. Particular attention will be paid to their contribution to one of the clearest expressions of their idea of religious life, the Rule, or rather Rules, which were observed, tested, discarded, and adapted by the emerging Community of Saint Mary. 1 The archives of the Community of St Mary contain a number of vignettes from the 1860’s and 70’s, detailing insults and accusations made against their sisters.
