Gross Introduction On October 11, 1986, the German daily die tageszeitung ran a short article entitled “No Such Agency,” written by the iconic media theorist Friedrich Kittler. Initially commissioned as a review of the German translation of James Bamford’s investigative bestseller Puzzle Palace: Inside the National Security Agency, America’s Most Secret Intelligence Organization (1982), Kittler’s text provided a concise yet striking reflection about the impact of the digital revolution—still in its infancy at that time—on the everyday practices of the intelligence business. With unabashed fascination, Kittler describes the National Security Agency, then largely obscure to the gen- eral public, as a highly efficient cloak-and-dagger force operating in the shadow of smaller but more glamorous agencies: The National Security Agency—the USA’s surveillance institution—is the only one among all government agencies and intelligence service bureaucracies enjoying the right to deny its own existence. A secret squared prevents informa- tion squared, as president Truman decreed in 1952. ‘No Such Agency’ or ‘Never Say Anything’ are just two of the decryptions of the acronym NSA (not lacking intra-agency humor). An organisation with 70,000 people surveilling—cautiously estimated— approximately every thousandth telecommunication message on the planet with spy satellites or radio relay systems, and using Platform, a network of 52 glob- ally linked computer systems, to automatically decipher, store and evaluate them, leaves public relations to the CIA and its 4000 agents. (Kittler) Now, thirty years later, in the post-Snowden era, the thought of the NSA monitoring merely a tiny fraction of the entirety of global communication seems like a lost Eden of privacy. The dizzying development of surveillance technologies has turned Kittler’s prediction that “one day, those 99.9% of the data flow that still run past the NSA might become graspable and evaluable” into an uncanny reality (Kittler). What Kittler could not foresee was that surveillance would go far beyond the comprehensive interception of global communication by a governmental agency. Given the accumulation and commercialization of personal data by private companies—aided by advances in digital data 10 Zappe and Gross mining, biometrics, and social network exhibitionism—it is hard to dis- pute the claim that we have grown accustomed to living in what sociol- ogist David Lyon calls a surveillance society. What the liberal-humanist consensus in Western democracies once considered a totalitarian night- mare has now become reality: surveillance practices and technologies have infiltrated all aspects of our lives and caused fundamental shifts in estab- lished notions of privacy and subjectivity, thus altering the status of the individual within the social realm. Affecting issues of security, power, technology, economy, social con- trol, and individuality, surveillance is a topic of extreme social, political, and ethical ambivalence. Shean P. Hier and Joshua Greenberg aptly note that today [s] urveillance functions ambiguously in everyday life to enable efficiency, conve- nience and security while simultaneously constraining the opportunities and life chances of individuals and social groups with shared characteristics—be they eco- nomic, sexual, radical, geographic or cultural. The ambiguous nature of surveil- lance also facilitates the penetration of information and data gathering/storage systems into the deeper recesses of everyday life, and the pervasiveness of surveil- lance systems, although put in place to increase safety and provide security, tends to generate greater levels of insecurity, anxiety and fear.

  • Composer David Lyon: an Autobiography
    Composer David Lyon: An Autobiography 1938-1950: Early Years I was born in Walsall, Staffordshire on December 29th, 1938, and educated at the local Queen Mary’s Grammar School. Although my parents were not particularly musical, my paternal grandmother possessed a rather nice piano, and from an early age I became fascinated with it, plonking away randomly on our regular Sunday afternoon visits. Eventually, probably when I was around 8 years old, my parents decided I needed a piano of my own, together with lessons from a recommended local teacher. The resulting instrument was not exactly of the highest quality, with a rather harsh, bright tone, but it was good enough for the purpose. My teacher, Mr Manton, gave me a thorough technical grounding, and I made steady progress towards a reasonably accomplished repertoire, with works such as Beethoven’s Pathétique and the Chopin A major Polonaise. I was able to memorise the music as I worked through it bar-by-bar, which meant that I had no further need to refer to the score. Although this aroused a certain admiration from my teacher, it unfortunately meant I didn’t learn a fluent sight-reading technique, which became a considerable handicap later on. I also discovered the ability to play ‘by ear’, especially popular songs and show tunes (which also impressed my teacher), and which, conversely, really did become an advantage as my career developed. My other grandparents possessed an equally fascinating musical resource, a wind-up gramophone (this was the late 1940s), together with a selection of classical records which I eagerly explored on my occasional visits.

ABSTRACT This thesis discusses some of the clerics who feature in Shakespeare's Histories. The introduction suggests that such characters, either individually or as a group, have by and large been ignored when Shakespeare's characters i are considered for serious and sustained discussion in academic or theatrical circles and argues that this should now be readdressed. The following four chapters each consider a particular cleric or clerics. The characters under scrutiny are the Bishop of Winchester in The First Part of King Henry VI and The Second Part of King Henry VI, the Bishop of Carlisle in Richard II, Cardinal Pandulph in King John, concluding with the Archbishop of Canterbury and the Bishop of Ely in Henry V. Each chapter commences with an account of the original historical personage as consideration is being given to figures who originated as actual human beings, and there is an exploration in each of the process of creation of the characters right back to their ultimate beginnings (and via Shakespeare's immediate sources, the Tudor historians).

  • Shakespeare on Film and Television in the Motion Picture, Broadcasting and Recorded Sound Division of the Library of Congress
    SHAKESPEARE ON FILM AND TELEVISION IN THE MOTION PICTURE, BROADCASTING AND RECORDED SOUND DIVISION OF THE LIBRARY OF CONGRESS Compiled by Zoran Sinobad January 2012 Introduction This is an annotated guide to moving image materials related to the life and works of William Shakespeare in the collections of the Motion Picture, Broadcasting and Recorded Sound Division of the Library of Congress. While the guide encompasses a wide variety of items spanning the history of film, TV and video, it does not attempt to list every reference to Shakespeare or every quote from his plays and sonnets which have over the years appeared in hundreds (if not thousands) of motion pictures and TV shows. For titles with only a marginal connection to the Bard or one of his works, the decision what to include and what to leave out was often difficult, even when based on their inclusion or omission from other reference works on the subject (see below). For example, listing every film about ill-fated lovers separated by feuding families or other outside forces, a narrative which can arguably always be traced back to Romeo and Juliet, would be a massive undertaking on its own and as such is outside of the present guide's scope and purpose. Consequently, if looking for a cinematic spin-off, derivative, plot borrowing or a simple citation, and not finding it in the guide, users are advised to contact the Moving Image Reference staff for additional information. How to Use this Guide Entries are grouped by titles of plays and listed chronologically within the group by release/broadcast date.

The intellectual property rights of the author or third parties in respect of this work are as defined by The Copyright Designs and Patents Act 1988 or as modified by any successor legislation. Any use made of information contained in this thesis/dissertation must be in accordance with that legislation and must be properly acknowledged. Further distribution or reproduction in any format is prohibited without the permission of the copyright holder. SYNOPSIS This thesis examines the performances which have earned Sir lan McKellen a reputation as one of the foremost Shakespearean actors of the day. His reputation has been built on five major performances: Richard II, Macbeth, Coriolanus, lago and Richard III. His performances as Hamlet, Romeo, Leontes and Kent were only limited successes. This thesis places McKellen's performances in these roles in the specific context of the production as a whole. Where it is relevant it assesses the significance of the casting of other roles, the influence of the personality, style and interests of the director, the policy of the theatre company and the impact of the performance space. This thesis identifies patterns in McKellen's work determined by his own personality and sexuality, the Cambridge education he shares with Sir Peter Hall, John Barton and Trevor Nunn, and his relationships with other actors.

  • Surveillance As Social Sorting: Privacy, Risk, and Digital Discrimination
    Surveillance as Social Sorting Surveillance happens to us all, every day, as we walk beneath street cameras, swipe cards, surf the Net. Agencies are using increasingly sophisticated computer systems – especially searchable databases – to keep tabs on us at home, work, and play. Once the word surveillance was reserved for police activities and intelligence gathering; now it is an unavoidable feature of everyday life. Surveillance as Social Sorting proposes that surveillance is not simply a contemporary threat to individual freedoms, but that, more insidiously, it is a powerful means of creating and reinforcing long-term social differences. As practiced today, it is actually a form of social sorting – a means of verifying identities but also of assessing risks and assigning worth. Questions of how categories are constructed therefore become significant ethical and political questions. Bringing together contributions from North America and Europe, Surveillance as Social Sorting offers an innovative approach to the interaction between societies and their technologies. It looks at a number of examples in depth and will be an appropriate source of reference for a wide variety of courses. David Lyon is Professor of Sociology at Queen’s University, Kingston, Ontario.
