    2011 FESTIVAL GUIDE ACPinfo.org Welcome to the Atlanta Celebrates Photography Festival 2011, our 13th year of celebrating photography across the Metro-Atlanta area! During the ACP festival, Atlanta will be transformed by photography. Hundreds of venues, from your favorite museum to your local coffee- shop, will be infused with the creative efforts of local photographers to internationally-known artists; you might even see snapshots from your Atlanta friends and neighbors! From inspiration to education, ACP 2011 delivers the best in photography, from enlightening exhibitions at participating galleries, to provocative public art installations on the streets of Atlanta. To get the most out of the Festival, grab a highlighter and spend a few minutes discovering your favorites in the Festival Guide. Highlight events that look interesting to you, then indicate your favorites on the calendar at the front of the guide (there is also an index of artists and venues to assist your search for a particular event). Then you’ll have an easy schedule that can guide your month-long photography experience! With so much to choose from, we know it can be a bit overwhelming! There are far too many events and exhibitions for one person to attend, so don’t get discouraged. There’s something for everyone; try starting with ACP’s featured events (pgs 14 - 21) and join us as we explore where photography meets contemporary art and culture. We look forward to seeing you in the coming weeks, and again, we’d love to hear about your Festival experience.

    Sports and the Rhetorical Construction of the Citizen-Consumer

    THE SPORTS MALL OF AMERICA: SPORTS AND THE RHETORICAL CONSTRUCTION OF THE CITIZEN-CONSUMER Cory Hillman A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY August 2012 Committee: Dr. Michael Butterworth, Advisor Dr. David Tobar Graduate Faculty Representative Dr. Clayton Rosati Dr. Joshua Atkinson © 2010 Cory Hillman All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Dr. Michael Butterworth, Advisor The purpose of this dissertation was to investigate from a rhetorical perspective how contemporary sports both reflect and influence a preferred definition of democracy that has been narrowly conflated with consumption in the cultural imaginary. I argue that the relationship between fans and sports has become mediated by rituals of consumption in order to affirm a particular identity, similar to the ways that citizenship in America has become defined by one’s ability to consume under conditions of neoliberal capitalism. In this study, I examine how new sports stadiums are architecturally designed to attract upper income fans through the mobilization of spectacle and surveillance-based strategies such as Fan Code of Conducts. I also investigate the “sports gaming culture” that addresses advertising in sports video games and fantasy sports participation that both reinforce the burgeoning commercialism of sports while normalizing capitalism’s worldview. I also explore the area of licensed merchandise which is often used to seduce fans into consuming the sports brand by speaking the terms of consumer capitalism often naturalized in fan’s expectations in their engagement with sports. Finally, I address potential strategies of resistance that rely on a reassessment of the value of sports in American culture, predicated upon restoring citizens’ faith in public institutions that would simultaneously reclaim control of the sporting landscape from commercial entities exploiting them for profit.

    OUTKAST’D AND CLAIMIN’ TRUE: THE LANGUAGE OF SCHOOLING AND EDUCATION IN THE SOUTHERN HIP­HOP COMMUNITY OF PRACTICE by JOYCELYN A. WILSON (Under the direction of Judith Preissle) ABSTRACT The hip­hop community of practice encompasses a range of aesthetic values, norms, patterns, and traditions. Because of its growth over the last three decades, the community has come to include regionally­specific networks linked together by community members who engage in meaningful practices and experiences. Expressed through common language ideologies, these practices contribute to the members’ communal and individual identity while simultaneously providing platforms to articulate social understandings. Using the constructs of community of practice and social networks, this research project is an interpretive study grounded primarily in the use of lyrics and interviews to investigate the linguistic patterns and language norms of hip­ hop’s southern network, placing emphasis on the Atlanta, Georgia southern hip­hop network. The two main goals are to gain an understanding of the role of school in the cultivation of the network and identify the network’s relationship to schooling and education. The purpose is to identify initial steps for implementing a hip­hop pedagogy in curriculum and instruction.
