  • Blues Music and the Art of Narrative Self-Invention
    UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA Los Angeles The Fictional Black Blues Figure: Blues Music and the Art of Narrative Self-Invention A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Philosophy in English by Kimberly Renee Mack 2015 © Copyright by Kimberly Renee Mack 2015 ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION The Fictional Black Blues Figure: Blues Music and the Art of Narrative Self-Invention by Kimberly Renee Mack Doctor of Philosophy in English University of California, Los Angeles, 2015 Professor Richard A Yarborough, Chair My dissertation examines representations of black American blues musicians in contemporary American fiction, drama, and popular music, and it argues that blues music can be examined as a narrative art rooted in the tradition of fictionalized autobiographical self- fashioning. I contend that the contemporary, multi-racial, literary and musical characters in my project who participate in so-called “authentic” blues expression create, sometimes consciously and sometimes unwittingly, a fiction on top of a fiction. This project questions the belief held by many blues scholars, critics, and fans that blues music is a racially essentialized form instead of a narrative tradition made possible through carefully constructed autobiographical and biographical fictions. ii My project makes two important interventions into traditional discussions of blues production and the representations of blues figures in 20th- and 21st-century American literature. First, it destabilizes racial, socio-cultural, temporal, and gendered blues tropes by shifting blues expression from an innate skill to a storytelling art form through which its makers invent themselves. Second, this study allows for a different, interdisciplinary approach to autobiographical and biographical expression.

  • MEJO482 Project #2 - Blue Note-Style Album Cover and Promotional Design
    MEJO482 Project #2 - Blue Note-style Album Cover and Promotional Design Project Overview: You’ve been hired by a popular musician’s marketing team to design their latest album cover. The artist has decided that the cover art should take inspiration from the Blue Note Records album covers from the ‘50s and ‘60s. You should look at and study as many of those as they can for inspiration and guidance on how to develop the look of the album cover, while also trying to maintain a sense of the artist’s personal style. Target Audience: During the making of the album, the artist recorded several tracks with up-and-coming jazz artists whose audiences may not overlap with their own. The album cover must feel connected to the artist’s own visual style, but it also must feel like a slight departure from what they may normally do. They want people to know they are an evolving artist who is willing to go wherever their music takes them. The Deliverables: The designer will need to turn in three (3) deliverables by the due date: 1. The finished album cover in PDF format, 2000 pixels x 2000 pixels, at least 200 dpi, RGB color space. You can use either Photoshop or Illustrator to create the final product as long as what you turn in conforms to the specifications above. The cover should feature the following pieces of information: The artist/group name, the album title, the Blue Note Records logo, the names of 4-5 people who contributed to the album.

  • Black Metal Machine Theorizing Industrial Black Metal
    BLACK METAL MACHINE THEORIZING INDUSTRIAL BLACK METAL Daniel Lukes Far from being a marginal Black Metal subgenre, Industrial Black Metal is central in bringing out Black Metal’s often disavowed appropriation of machinic noise and its critique of machine society. Through its engagement with “becoming machine” logic and robot apocalYpse, cybernetic, and cosmic science fictions, Industrial Black Metal recon- figures Black Metal’s drive toward the inorganic inhuman as vehement critique of capitalist modernitY and the industrial death state. LIVING WITH VADER Ryder Windham and Peter Vilmur’s official Darth Vader guidebook The Complete Vader (2009) chuckles at some earlY merchandise misfires and mocks a 1978 collectable model kit Darth Vader Van bY manufacturer MPC—which “could be pitted against a similar white ‘hero’ van in the ‘drag race of the galaxY’”—describing it as “curiositY that managed to slip through Lucasfilm approvals.”1 Yet maYbe the makers of that van were onto something. In 2011, Darth Vader is still being used to sell cars. The Volkswagen Passat 2012 commercial “The Force” features a Young child in a Vader costume, who goes about a suburban familY home trYing to use “the force” to no avail. When the father returns home, the child rushes to the drivewaY to use the force on the car, which responds bY flashing its headlights DANIEL LUKES (stealthilY activated bY Dad’s remote keY). The child stumbles back in astonishment, the father raises his eYebrows to Mom, and the picture of the technologicallY-ensconced nuclear familY is complete. In the intervening thirty-three Years, Vader has become a household deity, guarding the heavilY invested and culturallY sanctioned intersections of humanity, technologY, and industrial commerce.

Actually, we are still looking for a singer.” One would probably expect things much more pretentious to come from the mouth of Jim Kerr, the supposed lead singer of the United Kingdom’s provincial political band, Simple Minds. His environment nur­ tures such arrogance. Yet, this is really not the case. Well, maybe a little, but how can one not be a little pretentious when one tours for Amnesty International with the likes of U2, the folks who claim along with Vanilla Ice and Milli Vanilli to be bigger than The Beatles? Because he is not a cocky bastard like many of his contemporaries, his true appeal was wasted at recent college Q&A session in L.A., where he was promoting the band’s new album, Real Life. The reporters seemed a lot more like groupies, trying to jerk off a big time star. While the juvenile journalists dropped to their knees, drooling all over his long Scottish argot, licking up his tales of life on the road and swallowing the load he had to say about Amnesty Inter­ national, it was much more interesting when he broke from their starry-eyed bob­ k bing and talked about real life.
