    C E N T E R F O R D E M O C R A C Y & T E C H N O L O G Y Evaluating DRM: Building a Marketplace for the Convergent World September 2006 – Version 1.0 As digital rights management technologies are increasingly integrated into media products, devices, and platforms, it is important for the public to understand the tradeoffs and choices associated with different DRM systems. With sufficient information, competition between different DRM offerings can help promote a marketplace for digital media products that is diverse and responsive to reasonable consumer expectations. This paper seeks to contribute to the public discussion and understanding of DRM in the media marketplace by systematically reviewing the types of factors that product reviewers, consumer advocates, and members of the public may want to consider when evaluating products incorporating DRM. Introduction The explosive growth of the Internet and digital media has created both tremendous opportunities and new threats for content creators. Advances in digital technology offer new ways of marketing, disseminating, interacting with, and monetizing creative works, giving rise to expanding new markets that did not exist just a few years ago. These technologies also promise to democratize the production of creative content by putting the creation and wide distribution of creative works within the reach of private individuals. At the same time, however, the technologies have created major challenges for copyright holders seeking to exercise control over the distribution of their works and protect against piracy. 1 Digital rights management (DRM) represents a response to these issues.

  • Introduction to Confess the Gay Away? Media, Religion, and the Political Economy of Ex-Gay Therapy
    Introduction to Confess the Gay Away? Media, Religion, and the Political Economy of Ex-gay Therapy by Michael Thorn A PORTION OF THE DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE STUDIES IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY GRADUATE PROGRAM IN COMMUNICATION AND CULTURE YORK UNIVERSITY TORONTO, ONTARIO April 2015 ©Michael Thorn, 2015 1 Introduction: Confess Thy Self? In the media debate surrounding the Christian ex-gay movement, the phrase “pray the gay away” is often used as shorthand to describe the movement’s religiously mediated sexual orientation conversion efforts. However, when one digs deeper, not just into ex-gay practices, but into the debate itself, it becomes clear that ex-gay change—regardless of whether effective or not—is less about prayer than confession and testimony. Consider writer-director Jamie Babbit’s film But I’m a Cheerleader, a campy, comedic tale of a lesbian cheerleader forced into an ex-gay conversion camp (featuring drag queen Ru Paul in a rare not-in-drag performance). The film, which premiered at the Toronto International Film Festival in September 1999, is the second fictional pop culture text to depict the movement1 and it is all about confession. It is an iconic depiction, an intervention in the debate that is frequently referenced and imitated. It is mentioned in a 2011 documentary called This is What Love in Action Looks Like about real-life teenager Zach Stark being forced into an ex-gay conversion program; it is imitated in both a 2007 episode of the popular Comedy Central animated satire South Park, in which the character Butters is forced into an ex-gay conversion program, and a 2013 episode of Saturday Night Live featuring Ben Affleck as an ex-gay counsellor.

  • Review of Movie Bully
    Painfully Sad Stories of Bullying: Now What? A review of the film Bully (2011) Lee Hirsch (Director) Reviewed by Michael B. Greene The film Bully has received as much attention for its associated ratings “war” as it has about its content or message. When it was first reviewed, the Motion Picture Association of America gave the film an R rating because of language, that is, repeated use of a specific four-letter word. After much fanfare and outcries from a wide spectrum of celebrities, the appeal by the movie’s distributer to downgrade the rating was denied. In response, the Weinstein Company released the film without a rating. Subsequently, Harvey Weinstein decided to edit out some of the offending language in order to secure a PG-13 rating, a move he made to enable a larger audience to see the film. I reviewed the PG-13 version. Bully is a documentary that portrays the lives of five young people who were chronically bullied. Two of the young people committed suicide, Tyler at age 17 and Ty at age 11. Tyler’s story is conveyed through home movies and interviews with his parents, and Ty’s story is conveyed through an interview with his former best friend and his parents. Kelby is a 16-year-old open lesbian from Tuttle, Oklahoma. Kelby is spunky and charming, characteristics that belie her prior three suicide attempts and her self-cutting. Alex, a 14-year-old from Sioux City, Iowa, is repeatedly called “fish-face” and is frequently pummeled by fellow students. Alex has gotten to the point where he doesn’t think he feels anymore.

    I’m (Not) A Girl: Animating Experiences of Girlhood in Bob’s Burgers Item Type Article Authors Barnett, Katie Citation Barnett, K. (2019). "I’m (Not) A Girl: Animating Experiences of Girlhood in Bob’s Burgers." Journal of Popular Television, 7(1), 3-23. DOI 10.1386/jptv.7.1.3_1 Publisher Intellect Journal Journal of Popular Television Download date 27/09/2021 00:37:22 Item License http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/ Link to Item http://hdl.handle.net/10034/621344 I’m (Not) A Girl: Animating Experiences of Girlhood in Bob’s Burgers Katie Barnett, University of Chester Abstract Discourses of girlhood increasingly acknowledge its mutability, with the ‘girl’ as a complex image that cannot adequately be conceptualized by age or biology alone. Likewise, theories of animation often foreground its disruptive potential. Taking an interdisciplinary approach that encompasses girlhood studies, animation studies, and screen studies, this article analyses the representation of the two main girl characters, Tina and Louise Belcher, in the animated sitcom Bob’s Burgers (2011–present). Taking this concept of mutability as its central focus, it argues that animation is an ideal medium for representing girlhood, given its disruptive potential and non-linear capacities, whereby characters are often frozen in time. With no commitment to aging its young female characters, Bob’s Burgers is instead able to construct a landscape of girlhood that allows for endless reversal, contradiction and overlap in the experiences of Tina and Louise, whose existence as animations reveals girlhood as a liminal space in which girls can be one thing and the other – gullible and intelligent, vulnerable and strong, sexual and innocent – without negating their multifarious experiences.

  • Oct-Dec Press Listings
    ANTHOLOGY FILM ARCHIVES OCTOBER – DECEMBER PRESS LISTINGS OCTOBER 2013 PRESS LISTINGS MIX NYC PRESENTS: Tommy Goetz A BRIDE FOR BRENDA 1969, 62 min, 35mm MIX NYC, the producer of the NY Queer Experimental Film Festival, presents a special screening of sexploitation oddity A BRIDE FOR BRENDA, a lesbian-themed grindhouse cheapie set against the now-tantalizing backdrop of late-60s Manhattan. Shot in Central Park, Times Square, the Village, and elsewhere, A BRIDE FOR BRENDA narrates (quite literally – the story is told via female-voiced omniscient narration rather than dialogue) the experiences of NYC-neophyte Brenda as she moves into an apartment with Millie and Jane. These apparently unremarkable roommates soon prove themselves to be flesh-hungry lesbians, spying on Brenda as she undresses, attempting to seduce her, and making her forget all about her paramour Nick (and his partners in masculinity). As the narrator intones, “Once a young girl has been loved by a lesbian, it’s difficult to feel satisfaction from a man again.” –Thurs, Oct 3 at 7:30. TAYLOR MEAD MEMORIAL SCREENING Who didn’t love Taylor Mead? Irrepressible and irreverent, made of silly putty yet always sharp- witted, he was an underground icon in the Lower East Side and around the world. While THE FLOWER THIEF put him on the map, and Andy Warhol lifted him to Superstardom, Taylor truly made his mark in the incredibly vast array of films and videos he made with notables and nobodies alike. A poster child of the beat era, Mead was a scene-stealer who was equally vibrant on screen, on stage, or in a café reading his hilarious, aphoristic poetry.

  • The Electrical Transformation of the Public Sphere: Home Video, the Family, and the Limits of Privacy in the Digital Age
    THE ELECTRICAL TRANSFORMATION OF THE PUBLIC SPHERE: HOME VIDEO, THE FAMILY, AND THE LIMITS OF PRIVACY IN THE DIGITAL AGE By Adam Capitanio A DISSERTATION Submitted to Michigan State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY American Studies 2012 ABSTRACT THE ELECTRICAL TRANSFORMATION OF THE PUBLIC SPHERE: HOME VIDEO, THE FAMILY, AND THE LIMITS OF PRIVACY IN THE DIGITAL AGE By Adam Capitanio One of the constituent features of the digital age has been the redrawing of the line between private and public. Millions of social media users willingly discuss intimate behavior and post private photographs and videos on the internet. Meanwhile, state and corporate bodies routinely violate individual privacy in the name of security and sophisticated marketing techniques. While these occurrences represent something new and different, they are unsurprising given the history of home and amateur media. In this dissertation, I argue that contemporary shifts in the nature of the public/private divide have historical roots in the aesthetics and style found in home movies and videos. In other words, long before Facebook and YouTube enabled users to publicly document their private lives, home movies and videos generated patterns of representation that were already shifting the unstable constitution of the “private” and the “public” spheres. Using critical theory and archival research, I demonstrate how home moviemakers represented their families and experiences in communal and liminal spaces, expanding the meaning of “home.” When video become the predominant medium for domestic usage, home mode artifacts became imbricated with television, granting them a form of phantasmagoric publicity that found fulfillment in the digital era.

  • Post-Hearing Comments on Exemption to Prohibition On
    Before the United States Copyright Office, Library of Congress In the Matter of Rulemaking ) from Prohibition on ) Docket No. RM 2002-04 Circumvention of Technological Measures ) That Control Access to Copyrighted Works ) Comments of 321 Studios, LLC In Response to Copyright Office Questions On behalf of 321 Studios, a St. Louis, Missouri-based company that offers software titles developed to enable consumers to copy lawfully-obtained DVDs for fair use time-shifting, space-shifting, and backup purposes, we submit responses to specific questions posed by the Copyright Office, by letter to Robert Moore dated June 5, 2003. I. Region Coding: A. Can region coding on DVDs embodying audiovisual works be changed or turned off without decrypting CSS? First, we should explain that there are three levels of "region coding:" 1. RPC-I (Regional Playback Control, phase I: see www.dvdcca.org/rpc.html) allowed computer-based player software to take responsibility for implementing region code functions. RPC-I drives, which do not themselves enforce region coding, could not be sold to consumers after January 1, 2000. 2. RPC-II implements stronger protection by requiring the drive itself to check its stored region code against the set of region codes the DVD permits. 3. RCE (Regional Code Enhancement), an additional protection mechanism, was introduced in late 2000 to protect titles released for Region 1 (North America). Under RCE, the DVD movie uses a software mechanism to verify that the player is a "Region 1 only" player while the movie is playing. 1 The region code information embedded in a DVD cannot be changed, because DVD movies are not in a format that users can write over.

  • Home Movie Day DVD Hits Market “Living Room Cinema: Films from Home Movie Day, Vol
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Press contact: Dwight Swanson (215) 472-3948 [email protected] Home Movie Day DVD Hits Market “Living Room Cinema: Films from Home Movie Day, vol. 1” celebrates historic home movies, re-creates annual film preservation and public outreach event Now available from the Center for Home Movies, the Living Room Cinema DVD features 22 films that span nearly a century of social, personal, and filmmaking history. All films were originally screened at Home Movie Day events in 2003 and 2004, in locations ranging from Japan to Boston and London. Many films include new commentaries from the filmmakers or their families, making this compilation the first to present home movies as historical documents in their own right, rather than as components of documentaries or collage works. Contributors to the DVD include Robbins Barstow , whose 1936 amateur Tarzan narrative is now part of the motion picture collection at the Library of Congress; experimental filmmaker Jeanne Liotta ; and New York general store proprietor Kenny Shopsin . The films cover a range of subjects, and even familiar events present surprises: At a wedding reception in 1945, guests dance while communicating in sign language; a family celebrates their daughter’s first birthday by burying her placenta; and former Dead Boys guitarist Cheetah Chrome makes an appearance in a New Haven teenager’s footage of high school kids in 1980. In his introductory essay, film collector and historian Rick Prelinger notes "This DVD is a reference point and a beginning, the first intentional compilation of distinguished, exemplary, surreal and funny home movies. It exposes the best of Home Movie Day to a broader world." Teachers interested in using Living Room Cinema in their classes will find curriculum materials online for use with the DVD.
