As part of the first wave of museums to celebrate moving image work, CMOA played a central role in legitimizing film as an art form, leading a movement that would eventually result in the integration of moving image artworks in museum collections worldwide. The department's active roster of programmingÐfeaturing historical screenings, director's retrospectives, and monthly appearances by experimental filmmakers from around the worldÐwas a leading factor in Pittsburgh's emergence in the 1970s as ªone of the most vibrant and exciting places in America for exploring cinema.º (Robert A. Haller, Crossroads: Avant-garde Film in Pittsburgh in the 1970s, 2005). The museum also served as a galvanizing force in the burgeoning field by increasing visibility and promoting the professionalization of moving image art through its publication of Film and Video Makers Travel Sheet (a monthly newsletter distributed to 2,000 subscribers worldwide) and the Film and Video Makers Directory (a listing of those involved in film and video production and exhibition) and by paying substantial honoraria to visiting filmmakers.

  • The Arts of Sound Art and Music Douglas Kahn I Am Not Particularly Fond of the Term Sound Art. I Prefer the More Generic Sound I
    1 The Arts of Sound Art and Music Douglas Kahn I am not particularly fond of the term sound art. I prefer the more generic sound in the arts. My last book was subtitled a history of sound in the arts; there was no mention of sound art and not only because it was outside the historical scope of the book. Sound in the arts is a huge topic, especially when one keeps in mind the synthetic nature of the arts, i.e., the various intersecting social, cultural, and environmental realities wittingly and unwittingly embodied in any one of the innumerable factors that go into producing, experiencing, and understanding a particular work. Sound art is a smaller topic, if what is meant is that moment that artists, in the general sense of the word, began calling what they were doing sound art. In my experience, artists started to use sound art in this way during the 1980s, although there were plenty of artists doing similar things with sound earlier and not necessarily calling what they did sound art. The topic becomes smaller still if what is meant is the term that refers to what began a few years ago, and it is this meaning that has become well known. I realize that railing against the widespread use of a term is obviously not a wise use of time. That has not prevented many others wasting time on names. None of the minimalist composers seem to like the term minimalist but they were 2 more than willing to live in the shadow of that flag, if not salute.

  • Decolonizing the White Colonizer? by Cecilia Cissell Lucas a Dissertation
    Decolonizing the White Colonizer? By Cecilia Cissell Lucas A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Education in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Patricia Baquedano-López, Chair Professor Zeus Leonardo Professor Ramón Grosfoguel Professor Catherine Cole Fall 2013 Decolonizing the White Colonizer? Copyright 2013 Cecilia Cissell Lucas Abstract Decolonizing the White Colonizer? By Cecilia Cissell Lucas Doctor of Philosophy in Education University of California, Berkeley Professor Patricia Baquedano-López, Chair This interdisciplinary study examines the question of decolonizing the white colonizer in the United States. After establishing the U.S. as a nation-state built on and still manifesting a colonial tradition of white supremacy which necessitates multifaceted decolonization, the dissertation asks and addresses two questions: 1) what particular issues need to be taken into account when attempting to decolonize the white colonizer and 2) how might the white colonizer participate in decolonization processes? Many scholars in the fields this dissertation draws on -- Critical Race Theory, Critical Ethnic Studies, Coloniality and Decolonial Theory, Language Socialization, and Performance Studies -- have offered incisive analyses of colonial white supremacy, and assume a transformation of white subjectivities as part of the envisioned transformation of social, political and economic relationships. However, in regards to processes of decolonization, most of that work is focused on the decolonization of political and economic structures and on decolonizing the colonized. The questions pursued in this dissertation do not assume a simplistic colonizer/colonized binary but recognize the saliency of geo- and bio-political positionalities.

  • Sonic Thinking How Sound-Art Practices Teach Us Critical Listening to Space
    Invisible Places 18–20JULY 2014, VISEU, PORTUGAL Sonic Thinking How Sound-art practices Teach Us Critical Listening to Space Elen Flügge [email protected] New York, USA / Berlin, Germany Abstract This paper proposes that sound art works (or sonic artistic practices) can encourage audito- ry conscientiousness and thus foster stronger concepts for the future of urban sonic envi- ronments. Artists and their works can do this both by revealing ways that urban spaces could sound as well as reflecting ways that we could listen. Founding the discussion in practices of the soundscape movement a few case studies will be considered, including installations (sounding and silent), soundwalk and interactive (artist research) approaches. Keywords: Sound Art, Soundscape, Listening, Ear Cleaning, Sonic Commons, Acoustic Ecol- ogy, Urban Sound Space provisional version 1. Sound and City Planning Sound art practices, including public installations, somposition, performance, and so-called ‘silent’ sound works can be valuable means for developing auditory awareness of urban envi- ronments. Such works can teach us to ‘think with our ears’ – a prerequisite skill for effective urban sound planning. From the side of urban planning there has also been growing recognition that sound should be taken into account in city development. A prime example is Max Dixon who was brought as a sound consultant for the recent “Sounder City” action planning in London. Dix- on suggests that the (potential) sound of city space should be taken into account from the onset of urban planning projects and, further, that sound should be approached by planners in a positive manner.1 Before a concept of a desired future sonic environment can be constructively integrated into the shaping of new urban sound environments, an understanding of already-present sound spaces – as well as the nature of being a listening agent – must be further developed and deepened.

The appearance of his plays Japanese theatre and films is connected to the changing identities of resident Koreans, especially Kim Sujin since the 1980s. Kim makes use of political theatre performances of the earlier Shinjuku Ryozanpaku period to magnify and to remake into art the experiences of resident Koreans in Japan.
