Smith, Supervisor Steven Hoelscher Randolph Lewis Karl Hagstrom Miller Shirley Thompson Permanent Underground: Radical Sounds and Social Formations in 20th Century American Musicking by John F. Cline, B.A.; M.A. Dissertation Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of The University of Texas at Austin in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy The University of Texas at Austin May 2012 Dedication This dissertation is dedicated to my mother and father, Gary and Linda Cline. Without their generous hearts, tolerant ears, and (occasionally) open pocketbooks, I would have never made it this far, in any endeavor. A second, related dedication goes out to my siblings, Nicholas and Elizabeth. We all get the help we need when we need it most, don’t we? Acknowledgements First and foremost, I would like to thank my dissertation supervisor, Mark Smith. Even though we don’t necessarily work on the same kinds of topics, I’ve always appreciated his patient advice. I’m sure he’d be loath to use the word “wisdom,” but his open mind combined with ample, sometimes non-academic experience provided reassurances when they were needed most. Following closely on Mark’s heels is Karl Miller. Although not technically my supervisor, his generosity with his time and his always valuable (if sometimes painful) feedback during the dissertation writing process was absolutely essential to the development of the project, especially while Mark was abroad on a Fulbright.

    Pionners of Computer Art, II RCM GALERIE Pioneers of Computer Art Colette Bangert, Aldo Giorgini, Jean-Pierre Hebert, Desmond Paul Henry, Hervé Huitric, Ken Knowlton, Charles Mattox, Manfred Mohr, Monique Nahas, Jacques Palumbo, Edward Zajec 20 June - 31 July 2019 RCM Galerie Monique Nahas (b. 1940) and and Hervé Huitric (b. 1945) co-counded the Groupe Art et Informatique de Vincennes and were among the preeminent artists working with computers in France in the late 1960s and 1970s. Their work explores how computer algorithms can be transformed into colored images. They first worked with a CAE 510 and then an IBM 1130 writing programs in Algol and then Fortran that created random variations in constructivist color schemes. Instead of working on a palette with rules of transition, the duo considered color as a continuous variable, while treating color as a set of percentages of its basic components. Although interested in how the computer changed the rules of art, their works in the early seventies are highly influenced by pontilism, especially Georges Seurat. The duo's first work used a coded sequence of letters then printed on a plotter. R for Red, B for Blue etc. Each square was then hand painted. The couple then developed a stencil method, using the punch cards and screenprinting artwork using a plotter. The couple exhibited widely in the 1970s, including the New Tendency 5 exhibition in Zagreb.

  • The Reappearing Computer: the Past and Future of Computing in Design Research
    The Reappearing Computer: the past and future of computing in design research Simone Gristwood, Middlesex University, UK Stephen Boyd Davis, Royal College of Art, UK Abstract This paper investigates the early history of computing in design and in design research, focusing on individuals who were associated with the Department of Design Research at the Royal College of Art between the 1960s and the 1980s. The authors suggest that the theory and practice developed at that time may be valuable in thinking about the future, particularly when considering how computing may be used, in various forms, by designers in their work. A taxonomy of some early ideas and activities is presented which, it is suggested, displays a different emphasis from the way computing in design is conceived now. It is argued that as computing has become absorbed into mainstream culture, it has tended to “disappear” and its special qualities have become lost since it is regarded as “just a tool” like any other. A contrast is presented between this model of computing focused on facilitating or replacing hand-work and earlier models which prioritised computing’s relation to the mind. The authors note that some other fields seem currently to be reengaging with the idea of computing as something that is not quite like other tools. The article concludes with a list of questions addressed to the design and design research communities based on our analysis. Keywords computing, design research, design history, operational research, art Introduction – The Disappearing Computer The relation between computing and design takes two forms. On the one hand, designers have many opportunities to design devices and systems that utilise computing technology.

  • The Civics of Rock: Sixties Countercultural Music and The
    THE CIVICS OF ROCK: SIXTIES COUNTERCULTURAL MUSIC AND THE TRANSFORMATION OF THE PUBLIC SPHERE by Michael Jacob Kramer A dissertation submitted to the faculty of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of History. Chapel Hill 2006 Approved by Advisor: John F. Kasson Reader: Robert Cantwell Reader: Peter Filene Reader: Lawrence Grossberg Reader: Jacquelyn Hall © 2006 Michael Jacob Kramer ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT MICHAEL KRAMER: The Civics of Rock: Sixties Countercultural Music and the Transformation of the Public Sphere (Under the direction of Professor John F. Kasson) For the counterculture of the 1960s and 70s, rock music was not only mass entertainment, but also a form of public life. While many scholars have argued that rock was incompatible with civic participation, this book claims that in music scenes such as San Francisco, in poster art and dancing, on the radio and in print publications, rock served as a flash point for dilemmas of citizenship and civil society. As frequently as it deteriorated into escapism and hedonism, rock also created an atmosphere of inquiry in which the young might listen, think, move, and feel their way through issues of public and civic interaction, such as identity, belonging, power, and democracy. Even when exported by the American military to Vietnam or when circulating to youth movements worldwide, far from eclipsing public life, rock music transformed it into a mass-mediated mode of association
