    PERFORMED IDENTITIES: HEAVY METAL MUSICIANS BETWEEN 1984 AND 1991 Bradley C. Klypchak 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 May 2007 Committee: Dr. Jeffrey A. Brown, Advisor Dr. John Makay Graduate Faculty Representative Dr. Ron E. Shields Dr. Don McQuarie © 2007 Bradley C. Klypchak All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Dr. Jeffrey A. Brown, Advisor Between 1984 and 1991, heavy metal became one of the most publicly popular and commercially successful rock music subgenres. The focus of this dissertation is to explore the following research questions: How did the subculture of heavy metal music between 1984 and 1991 evolve and what meanings can be derived from this ongoing process? How did the contextual circumstances surrounding heavy metal music during this period impact the performative choices exhibited by artists, and from a position of retrospection, what lasting significance does this particular era of heavy metal merit today? A textual analysis of metal- related materials fostered the development of themes relating to the selective choices made and performances enacted by metal artists. These themes were then considered in terms of gender, sexuality, race, and age constructions as well as the ongoing negotiations of the metal artist within multiple performative realms. Occurring at the juncture of art and commerce, heavy metal music is a purposeful construction. Metal musicians made performative choices for serving particular aims, be it fame, wealth, or art. These same individuals worked within a greater system of influence. Metal bands were the contracted employees of record labels whose own corporate aims needed to be recognized.

ISBN-0-9667409-1-2 Preface In this collection of stories, I have recorded some of my adventures on the mountains of the world. I make no pretense to being anything other than an average hiker for, as the first stories tell, I came to enjoy the mountains quite late in life. But, like thousands before me, I was drawn increasingly toward the wilderness, partly because of the physical challenge at a time when all I had left was a native courage (some might say foolhardiness), and partly because of a desire to find the limits of my own frailty. As these stories tell, I think I found several such limits; there are some I am proud of and some I am not. Of course, there was also the grandeur and magnificence of the mountains. There is nothing quite to compare with the feeling that envelopes you when, after toiling for many hours looking at rock and dirt a few feet away, the world suddenly opens up and one can see for hundreds of miles in all directions. If I were a religious man, I would feel spirits in the wind, the waterfalls, the trees and the rock. Many of these adventures would not have been possible without the mar- velous companionship that I enjoyed along the way.

  • Divergence Time Estimation Using BEAST V2.∗ Dating Species Divergences with the Fossilized Birth-Death Process Tracy A
    Divergence Time Estimation using BEAST v2.∗ Dating Species Divergences with the Fossilized Birth-Death Process Tracy A. Heath Central among the questions explored in biology are those that seek to understand the timing and rates of evolutionary processes. Accurate estimates of species divergence times are vital to understanding historical biogeography, estimating diversification rates, and identifying the causes of variation in rates of molecular evolution. This tutorial will provide a general overview of divergence time estimation and fossil calibration using a stochastic branching process and relaxed-clock model in a Bayesian framework. The exercise will guide you through the steps necessary for estimating phylogenetic relationships and dating species divergences using the program BEAST v2.∗. For help with this tutorial or other questions about the FBD process in BEAST v2.∗, please contact the BEAST2 users group http://groups.google.com/group/beast-users. 1 Background Estimating branch lengths in proportion to time is confounded by the fact that the rate of evolution and time are intrinsically linked when inferring genetic differences between species. A model of lineage-specific substitution rate variation must be applied to tease apart rate and time. When applied in methods for divergence time estimation, the resulting trees have branch lengths that are proportional to time. External node age estimates from the fossil record or other sources are necessary for inferring the real-time (or absolute) ages of lineage divergences (Figure1). T T Branch lengths = SUUBSTITION RATE X TIME Branch lengths = SUBSTITUTION RATE Branch lengths = TIME Unconstrained analyses estimate branch Divergence time estimation requires Fossils and other geological dates can be lengths as a product of rate and time a model of among-lineage substitution used to calibrate divergence time analyses rate variation to tease apart rate and time and produce estimates of node ages in absolute time.

  • Algorithmic Composition: the Music of Mathematics
    Algorithmic Composition: The Music of Mathematics Carlo Anselmo [email protected] May 8, 2018 Abstract We report on several techniques we have developed for generating musical compositions algorithmically. Most of our techniques are based on our idea of a sequence recursion, which is a method for generating finite integer sequences that can represent pitches and rhythms. Our research is two-pronged: we de- velop the mathematical properties and techniques associated with sequence recursions, and we apply these techniques to the synthesis of new musical compositions. Sequence recursions use basic musical operations such as rep- etition, transposition, and inversion to iteratively generate integer sequences of increasing length and complexity. These sequences are then mapped into musical structures such as scale or rhythm patterns to produce melodies and accompaniments. We present several examples of musical compositions pro- duced by this process. 1 Introduction In this paper, we report on several techniques we have developed for generating mu- sical compositions algorithmically. These techniques are based primarily on our idea of a sequence recursion, which is a method for generating finite integer sequences that can represent pitches and rhythms. We call these sequences pitch patterns and rhythm patterns, respectively, and we have developed many operations we can per- form on them. Pitch patterns provide a list of integers that are mapped onto pitches, while rhythm patterns designate the start times for notes. Rhythm patterns also have a corresponding object called a division scheme, which dictates the interval of time a rhythm pattern lives on. For both pitch and rhythm, some of the operations we have developed mirror basic musical operations such as repetition, transposition, and inversion when we iteratively generate sequences of increasing length and com- plexity.
