On Carolee Schneemann's Snows Erica Levin I Say 'I Use Materials'
Dissent and the Aesthetics of Control: On Carolee Schneemann’s Snows Erica Levin I say ‘I use materials’ but I often sense that they use me as vision from which they re- emerge in a visual world which could not speak without them. At the same time in the art world today people often say, “I’m only interested in the useless.” The Fro- Zen, the expanse of slight sensation, the twist to existing conventions: not to be shocked, disturbed, startled, not to exercise the senses thoroughly… to be left as you were found, undisturbed, confirmed in all expectation. Not what is ‘useful’ but what moves me. —Carolee Schneemann, 19631 I begin with a statement by the artist Carolee Schneemann. Notice the strange formulation she uses to describe her relationship to materials: “they use me as vision.” Consider too the way this formulation resounds in the concluding phrase, “Not what is ‘useful’ but what moves me.” Written in 1963, the note speaks to the shift in her work from painting toward the production of large-scale assemblages, environmental collages, and performances undertaken in the context of happenings and the Judson Dance Theater. Four Fur Cutting Boards (1963), for example, employs materials left behind in the artist’s studio, a former furrier’s workshop. The large painted panels incorporate items that might well appear used up and useless: a dangling hubcap, a couple of ruined umbrellas, scraps of wood, fabric, and fur. For Schneemann however, use was not the measure of value that mattered. The distinct physicality of each found element within her composition solicits a form of looking that involves the body as much as the eye. -

Altered States: the American Psychedelic Aesthetic
ALTERED STATES: THE AMERICAN PSYCHEDELIC AESTHETIC A Dissertation Presented by Lana Cook to The Department of English in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the field of English Northeastern University Boston, Massachusetts April, 2014 1 © Copyright by Lana Cook All Rights Reserved 2 ALTERED STATES: THE AMERICAN PSYCHEDELIC AESTHETIC by Lana Cook ABSTRACT OF DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in English in the College of Social Sciences and Humanities of Northeastern University, April, 2014 3 ABSTRACT This dissertation traces the development of the American psychedelic aesthetic alongside mid-twentieth century American aesthetic practices and postmodern philosophies. Psychedelic aesthetics are the varied creative practices used to represent altered states of consciousness and perception achieved via psychedelic drug use. Thematically, these works are concerned with transcendental states of subjectivity, psychic evolution of humankind, awakenings of global consciousness, and the perceptual and affective nature of reality in relation to social constructions of the self. Formally, these works strategically blend realist and fantastic languages, invent new language, experimental typography and visual form, disrupt Western narrative conventions of space, time, and causality, mix genres and combine disparate aesthetic and cultural traditions such as romanticism, surrealism, the medieval, magical realism, science fiction, documentary, and scientific reportage. This project attends to early exemplars of the psychedelic aesthetic, as in the case of Aldous Huxley’s early landmark text The Doors of Perception (1954), forgotten pioneers such as Jane Dunlap’s Exploring Inner Space (1961), Constance Newland’s My Self and I (1962), and Storm de Hirsch’s Peyote Queen (1965), cult classics such as Tom Wolfe’s The Electric Kool-Aid Acid Test (1968), and ends with the psychedelic aesthetics’ popularization in films like Roger Corman’s The Trip (1967). -
From Citizens to Consumers: the Countercultural Roots of Green Consumerism
From Citizens to Consumers: The Countercultural Roots of Green Consumerism A thesis presented to the faculty of the College of Arts and Sciences of Ohio University In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree Master of Arts Philip A. Wight August 2013 ©2013 Philip A. Wight. All Rights Reserved. 2 This thesis titled From Citizens to Consumers: The Countercultural Roots of Green Consumerism by PHILIP A. WIGHT has been approved for the Department of History and the College of Arts and Sciences by Kevin Mattson Connor Study Professor of Contemporary History Robert Frank Dean, College of Arts and Sciences 3 ABSTRACT WIGHT, PHILIP A., M.A. August 2013, History From Citizens to Consumers: The Countercultural Roots of Green Consumerism Director of thesis: Kevin Mattson When did American environmentalism shift from a focus on collective political action to an obsession with personal lifestyles? This thesis investigates three distinct bodies of environmental thought spanning the 1950s and the mid-1970s to answer this question. The three eco-political philosophies studied here are liberal, eco-socialist, and countercultural environmentalism. The heart of this thesis is the debate among key environmental thinkers—John Kenneth Galbraith, Stewart Brand, and Barry Commoner—concerning the role of individual consumers and the importance of public policy. This debate can be viewed as supply-side (producers) versus demand-side (consumers) environmentalism. This thesis argues America’s modern paradigm of libertarian, demand-side environmentalism and green consumerism stems from specific values, ideas, lifestyles, and worldviews representative of American counterculture of the 1960s and 1970s. In championing individual consumer choice, contemporary environmentalism has largely rejected liberal and eco-socialist prescriptions of collective political action and social democratic governance. -

Aspen Magazine-In-A-Box Collection
Aspen “Magazine-in-a-Box” Collection MSS 220 .50 linear feet Background Aspen was a three-dimensional, multi-media magazine featuring articles, pictures, flyers, broadsides, phonograph recordings and film reels, usually revolving around a particular theme. The items were boxed loosely together, eliminating the traditional magazine format. Aspen was conceived and edited by Phyllis Johnson, an advertising executive who came up with the name for the magazine while on vacation in Aspen, Colorado. Only 10 issues of Aspen were published, sporadically, between 1965 and 1971. The magazine featured articles and multi- media content, and was designed by, many of the period’s top popular artists. Names like Andy Warhol, Peter Blake, John Lennon, Marcel Duchamp, and David Hockney were associated with Aspen. Scope and Content The collection at St. Lawrence contains the first six issues of Aspen in their original boxes. Issues 5 and 6 were produced and sold to subscribers in one box. Provenance Gift of Mary Huse, Richville, New York. Box 1 Aspen / The Magazine in a Box, Vol. 1, No. 1, 1965. (Includes statement about the magazine by Phyllis Johnson) Contents • Ski Roaming, Lift-Shunning, Mountain-Touring—Whatever you Call it, It’s the Reviving Sport : Denis Higgins and John Henry Auran • Jazz: A Cool Duel o In Praise of Dixieland; Freddie Fisher o In Defense of Latter-Day Jazz; John Hendricks o In Explanation of All Jazz; Chuck Isreals • A Sanctuary for Deer, Peacocks, and People—Stillwater Ranch; Peggy Clifford • The Hide and Seek of the Bird of the Timberline—A Monograph on the White-tailed Ptarmigan; Timothy Thomas and Tony Gauba • Configurations of the New World o Implications of Population Changes; Philip M. -
