The Spectral Voice and 9/11
SILENCIO: THE SPECTRAL VOICE AND 9/11 Lloyd Isaac Vayo A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY August 2010 Committee: Ellen Berry, Advisor Eileen C. Cherry Chandler Graduate Faculty Representative Cynthia Baron Don McQuarie © 2010 Lloyd Isaac Vayo All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Ellen Berry, Advisor “Silencio: The Spectral Voice and 9/11” intervenes in predominantly visual discourses of 9/11 to assert the essential nature of sound, particularly the recorded voices of the hijackers, to narratives of the event. The dissertation traces a personal journey through a selection of objects in an effort to seek a truth of the event. This truth challenges accepted narrativity, in which the U.S. is an innocent victim and the hijackers are pure evil, with extra-accepted narrativity, where the additional import of the hijacker’s voices expand and complicate existing accounts. In the first section, a trajectory is drawn from the visual to the aural, from the whole to the fragmentary, and from the professional to the amateur. The section starts with films focused on United Airlines Flight 93, The Flight That Fought Back, Flight 93, and United 93, continuing to a broader documentary about 9/11 and its context, National Geographic: Inside 9/11, and concluding with a look at two YouTube shorts portraying carjackings, “The Long Afternoon” and “Demon Ride.” Though the films and the documentary attempt to reattach the acousmatic hijacker voice to a visual referent as a means of stabilizing its meaning, that voice is not so easily fixed, and instead gains force with each iteration, exceeding the event and coming from the past to inhabit everyday scenarios like the carjackings.

Hollywood Stars Warm Chilly Fall Day at 15Th Annual California Independent Film Festival
LAMORINDA WEEKLY | Hollywood Stars Warm Chilly Fall Day at 15th Annual California Independent Film Festival Published November 21st, 2012 Hollywood Stars Warm Chilly Fall Day at 15th Annual California Independent Film Festival By Laurie Snyder Film buffs may have shivered as they hurried from cars into Moraga and Orinda theatres recently, but they warmed quickly as they basked in the glow of Hollywood screen legends, Connie Stevens and Dawn Wells, at special California Independent Film Festival events Nov. 10. Baby boomers and a new generation of fans enjoyed a conversation with Wells Saturday morning at the Rheem Theatre, then a select group of 25 movie lovers dined and dished with the two stars at Michael's Ristorante in Moraga. Afterward, back at the theatre, the thermometer climbed when Stevens relived her steamy kiss with heartthrob, Troy Donahue, in the 1961 film Parrish. Noting that Donahue was "the hottest thing in the world at that time," Stevens then let fans in on a secret: "We worked together so many times that we were like brother and sister." They remained devoted friends throughout their lives. Stevens also recalled times with America's first and best moon walker, Neil Armstrong, and comedy giants, George Burns, Bob Hope, and Jerry Lewis. "I got to work with two of my own idols - Eve Arden and Sid Caesar" in the 1982 sequel to Grease, she said. Stevens' two newest projects as a director- producer-screenwriter, are Prairie Bones and Saving Grace B. Jones (coming this December). Later that same evening, Stevens and Wells received CAIFF awards honoring their achievements in film and television.
