  • Nio Fragment Om Alternativ Metal
    Nio fragment om alternativ metal ANDERS BARTONEK ”Angel Dust” I Albumet Angel Dust innehåller väsentligen och simultant både en kritik och en fördjupning av arbetsdelningens princip, en princip i samband med vilken Theodor W. Adorno i Estetisk teori skrev att ingen konst har möjlig- het att på något sätt realisera sin humana allmänhet om den inte tar vägen via konsekvent arbetsdelning. För Adorno innebär det att konsten kritiskt måste använda sig av den princip som har lett till behovet av konst. Om Adorno har rätt är Faith No More inne på en fruktbar väg då de håller fast vid denna dubbla karaktär hos arbetsdelningen. Å ena sidan: Angel Dust fylls över kanten av en indifferens av influenser – de hörs, men är svåra att skilja åt, och det tycks inte gå att härleda sig tillbaka till ingredienserna utan att just det går förlorat som eftersökningen vill förstå. I boken The Real Story citeras Bill Gould om varför den mer traditionella gitarrockaren Jim Martin togs in i bandet. Det gällde att skapa en specifik blandning: ”we needed a heavy guitar, and we couldn’t use some alternative guy who’d been fed on U2 to supply that punch. So really it was all about cooking a brew; he full- filled that ingredient”. Å andra sidan: det musikaliska utförandet utgörs av en tydlig arbetsdelning på ett sätt som är ovanligt för genren. Faith No More spelar orkestral, men icke-pompös metal. Trey Spruance, Mr. Bungle-med- lemmen som fick i uppgift att spela in gitarren på ett senare album, är nära detta perspektiv: ”I’ve always naturally thought of the role of Faith No More guitar parts as being kind of minimal pieces of a puzzle working in conjunc- tion with everything”.

  • The Shelter Revolution: Housing and Community Planning In
    THE SHELTER REVOLUTION: HOUSING AND COMMUNITY PLANNING IN TAMPA BAY, FLORIDA, 1940-1990 AN ABSTRACT SUBMITTED ON THE TWENTY-FIFTH DAY OF JUNE 2017 TO THE DEPARTMENT OF HISTORY IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS OF THE SCHOOL OF LIBERAL ARTS OF TULANE UNIVERSITY FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY BY Peyton Lee Jones ! Abstract: In the last half of the twentieth century, a major transformation occurred in American residential living. While in the 1950s and 1960s the single-family, detached home dominated residential development, in the 1970s and 1980s new forms of residential dwellings and communities, ranging from private retirement communities, to mobile homes and trailer parks, to condominiums, to gated, privately governed “towns,” proliferated across the metropolitan landscape. The changes in residential living, what can be understood as a “shelter revolution,” played an integral role in the spatial, political, and social formation of metropolises in the Global South. This dissertation examines the “shelter revolution” in Tampa Bay, Florida, between 1940 and the 1985. In so doing, it explores the changing relationship between housing and community design, community formation, and residential and metropolitan political culture. It argues that changes in residential living fueled and shaped metropolitan growth and expansion. At the same time, innovations in residential design and development, along with new legal instruments of property ownership, altered the residential experience. Over time, these changes rippled throughout metropolitan life, transfiguring the built environment and transforming the ways Americans built, purchased, and experienced residential housing and community. These changes drove the physical, cultural, and economic formation of the Tampa Bay, from a series of scattered urban settlements into a regional metropolis.
