Rapduoen Murs & Fashawn Gæster VEGA Til December 2012-11-08 10:56 CET Rapduoen Murs & Fashawn gæster VEGA til december VEGA & Soulkitchen præsenterer Rapduoen Murs & Fashawn gæster VEGA til december De amerikanske rappere Murs og Fashawn nyder begge stor respekt for deres solomateriale. Den 5. december gæster duoen imidlertid Lille VEGA med deres nye, fælles album This Generation, som har fået gode anmeldelser. Albummet udkom den 25. september, og nu har man mulighed for opleve materialet live, når de to California-rappere gæster Danmark sammen for første gang. Nyt, fælles projekt Til trods for deres respektive solokarrierer og en aldersforskel på 10 år mellem den rutinerede Murs og den opkommende Fashawn, er de to rappere fundet sammen om et fælles projekt, der i september udmyntede sig i albummet This Generation. Selvom albummet er gået under radaren på en del af de større mainstream- medier, så er der blevet taget rigtig godt imod udgivelsen. Det danske musiksite Undertoner gav således albummet 4,5/6 U’er, mens det etaberede amerikanske hiphop-magasin XXL gav pladen karakteren 4/5 (XL/XXL). Lyden på This Generation er inspireret af lækker G-funk og 1990’er west coast-hiphop, mens tekstuniverset drejer sig omkring fortællinger fra ghettoen, herunder kunstnernes egne historier. Teksterne leveres af to rappere, hvis evner og teknik ikke står meget tilbage for de klassiske west coast-legender. Anerkendt også for deres solomateriale Både Murs og Fashawn er anerkendte kunstnere i deres egen ret med rost solomateriale. Murs, der har udgivet på de respekterede pladeselskaber Definitive Jux og Rhymesayers Entertainment, har udsendt otte soloalbums, hvoraf det seneste, Yumiko: Curse of the Merch Girl, udkom i juli måned. Fashawn udgav i oktober 2009 sin foreløbig eneste soloudgivelse, den anmelderroste debut Boy Meets World. Et nyt album, The Ecology, skulle dog udkomme i slutningen af 2012-starten af 2013.

  • Introduction: the Emerging Alliance of World Religions and Ecology
    Emerging Alliance of World Religions and Ecology 1 Mary Evelyn Tucker and John A. Grim Introduction: The Emerging Alliance of World Religions and Ecology HIS ISSUE OF DÆDALUS brings together for the first time diverse perspectives from the world’s religious traditions T regarding attitudes toward nature with reflections from the fields of science, public policy, and ethics. The scholars of religion in this volume identify symbolic, scriptural, and ethical dimensions within particular religions in their relations with the natural world. They examine these dimensions both historically and in response to contemporary environmental problems. Our Dædalus planning conference in October of 1999 fo- cused on climate change as a planetary environmental con- cern.1 As Bill McKibben alerted us more than a decade ago, global warming may well be signaling “the end of nature” as we have come to know it.2 It may prove to be one of our most challenging issues in the century ahead, certainly one that will need the involvement of the world’s religions in addressing its causes and alleviating its symptoms. The State of the World 2000 report cites climate change (along with population) as the critical challenge of the new century. It notes that in solving this problem, “all of society’s institutions—from organized re- ligion to corporations—have a role to play.”3 That religions have a role to play along with other institutions and academic disciplines is also the premise of this issue of Dædalus. The call for the involvement of religion begins with the lead essays by a scientist, a policy expert, and an ethicist.

  • Collagemachine: a Model of “Interface Ecology” by Andruid Kerne
    CollageMachine: A Model of “Interface Ecology” By Andruid Kerne A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of Computer Science New York University May, 2001 ___________________________________ Ken Perlin Andruid Kerne All Rights Reserved, 2001 Dedicated to the open minds of students and practitioners everywhere. iii Abstract Browsing is an open-ended activity, which involves fulfillment of vague desires, as well as satisfaction of definite goals. Typical computational artifacts, on the other hand, address well-formed problems. Even in the field of human computer interaction, development processes have previously been modeled in terms of users’ concrete tasks. Undertaking more open inquiries necessitates exploring more open processes and methods. The interactive artifact, CollageMachine, which addresses browsing creatively, has been co-developed with the metadisciplinary framework of interface ecology. CollageMachine is a creative web visualization tool that learns while you surf. Instead of waiting for you to click a hyperlink, the iv program proactively pulls content of interest. CollageMachine supports an open-ended process of web browsing, in which the user needs only a fuzzy sense of interests. Clear advance goals are not required. CollageMachine deconstructs websites into media elements - images and chunks of text. These media elements continuously stream into a collage. A point and click, drag and drop interface enables the user to rearrange the elements. From this interaction, an agent learns about the user’s interests. It acts to shape the ongoing development of the collage on her/his behalf. Like browsing, understanding and developing what goes on around computers, in addition to inside of them, is an open process without definite bounds.

  • 0 Musical Borrowing in Hip-Hop
    MUSICAL BORROWING IN HIP-HOP MUSIC: THEORETICAL FRAMEWORKS AND CASE STUDIES Justin A. Williams, BA, MMus Thesis submitted to the University of Nottingham for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy September 2009 0 Musical Borrowing in Hip-hop Music: Theoretical Frameworks and Case Studies Justin A. Williams ABSTRACT ‗Musical Borrowing in Hip-hop‘ begins with a crucial premise: the hip-hop world, as an imagined community, regards unconcealed intertextuality as integral to the production and reception of its artistic culture. In other words, borrowing, in its multidimensional forms and manifestations, is central to the aesthetics of hip-hop. This study of borrowing in hip-hop music, which transcends narrow discourses on ‗sampling‘ (digital sampling), illustrates the variety of ways that one can borrow from a source text or trope, and ways that audiences identify and respond to these practices. Another function of this thesis is to initiate a more nuanced discourse in hip-hop studies, to allow for the number of intertextual avenues travelled within hip-hop recordings, and to present academic frameworks with which to study them. The following five chapters provide case studies that prove that musical borrowing, part and parcel of hip-hop aesthetics, occurs on multiple planes and within myriad dimensions. These case studies include borrowing from the internal past of the genre (Ch. 1), the use of jazz and its reception as an ‗art music‘ within hip-hop (Ch. 2), borrowing and mixing intended for listening spaces such as the automobile (Ch. 3), sampling the voice of rap artists posthumously (Ch. 4), and sampling and borrowing as lineage within the gangsta rap subgenre (Ch.

  • Biophilia and the Aesthetics of Blues, Jazz, and Hip-Hop Music in African-American Prose Fiction
    Biophilia and the Aesthetics of Blues, Jazz, and Hip-Hop Music in African-American Prose Fiction Inaugural-Dissertation zur Erlangung des Doktorgrades an der Philologisch-Historischen Fakultät der Universität Augsburg vorgelegt von Monika Demmler 2015 Erstgutachter: Prof. Dr. Hubert Zapf Zweitgutachter: Prof. Dr. Erik Redling Tag der mündlichen Prüfung: 09.07.2015 Acknowledgements During the creative process of writing this doctoral thesis, it felt that certain develop- ments or resembled the movements of a progressive fractal. It started off with a basis as an initiating idea, from where it took forms, step by step from one level to the next one, until up to the point where the form gradually began to perceive its beauty. However, to get up those levels was by far not as smooth as I had imagined in the be- ginning of this project. To transcend critical, despairing phases, I literally needed to take on a life-affirming stance as a prerequisite for finishing this process after a time period of five years on the whole. In this sense, I would like to thank my parents for having raised me with the possibility of developing a creative, independent and open- spirited mind in the natural environments of the countryside around a small village, as well as being role models for how to follow set aims despite critical moments in which obstacles rule. I am greatly indebted to Professor Doctor Hubert Zapf from the University of Augsburg, who introduced me to the teachings of cultural ecology, which inspired me to carry out this musical-literary intermedial project, in which I could follow my interests in blues, jazz, and hip-hop music.

  • Current Directions in Ecomusicology
    Current Directions in Ecomusicology This volume is the first sustained examination of the complex perspectives that comprise ecomusicology—the study of the intersections of music/sound, culture/society, and nature/environment. Twenty-two authors provide a range of theoretical, methodological, and empirical chapters representing disciplines such as anthropology, biology, ecology, environmental studies, ethnomusicology, history, literature, musicology, performance studies, and psychology. They bring their specialized training to bear on interdisciplin- ary topics, both individually and in collaboration. Emerging from the whole is a view of ecomusicology as a field, a place where many disciplines come together. The topics addressed in this volume—contemporary composers and traditional musics, acoustic ecology and politicized soundscapes, mate- rial sustainability and environmental crisis, familiar and unfamiliar sounds, local places and global warming, birds and mice, hearing and listening, bio- music and soundscape ecology, and more—engage with conversations in the various realms of music study as well as in environmental studies and cultural studies. As with any healthy ecosystem, the field of ecomusicol- ogy is dynamic, but this edited collection provides a snapshot of it in a formative period. Each chapter is short, designed to be accessible to the non- specialist, and includes extensive bibliographies; some chapters also provide further materials on a companion website. An introduction and interspersed editorial summaries help guide readers through four current directions— ecological, fieldwork, critical, and textual—in the field of ecomusicology. Aaron S. Allen is Associate Professor of Musicology at the University of North Carolina at Greensboro, USA, where he is also director of the Envi- ronmental and Sustainability Studies Program.

  • The Politics of the Cipher: Hip-Hop, Antiphony and Multiculturalism Bharath Ganesh University College London
    The politics of the cipher: hip-hop, antiphony and multiculturalism Bharath Ganesh University College London (UCL) Department of Geography Thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy September 2016 I, Bharath Ganesh, confirm that work presented in this thesis is my own. Where information has been derived from other sources, I confirm that this has been indicated in the thesis. Abstract This project explores the incipient forms of multiculture present in the musical publics assembled by hip-hop music and culture based on ethnography of a university student group, S4HH (Students for Hip-hop). I position the cipher (a circle of people rapping together) as the diagram of the ethics and politics of hip-hop listening. The primary aesthetic feature of the cipher is antiphony or call-and-response musicality. However, affect in hip-hop musical publics goes beyond aesthetics; it catalyses ethical and political responses. My methods add detail on the varied socialites of listening to the literature on hip-hop studies. I develop antiphony as a unique event that shatters identity and cultivates ethical subjectivities that are constituted in cycles of affect and response between self and other. This argument is based on writings on antiphony from Wole Soyinka, Toni Morrison, Henry Louis Gates Jr., and Paul Gilroy. This work helps operationalise the concepts ‘event’, ‘self’, ‘other’, ‘body’, and ‘community’ in the work of Emmanuel Levinas, Gilles Deleuze, and Jean-Luc Nancy for mapping the ethics and politics of antiphony in hip-hop listening. My study of antiphonal relations illuminates the ethics and politics of bodily response to the material distribution and circulation of affect in hip-hop spaces.
