Dokkedal/Dixen Och Dj Bang Bang Club Uppsala 29.09.2010 Pressmeddelande RJD2 Uppsala Konsert & Kongress Onsdag 6 oktober, 20.00 Sal B Support: Dokkedal/Dixen och Dj Bang Bang Club Med en mix av hiphop, soul och pop är RJD2 nu större än någonsin. Ett bra tecken är att en av hans låtar används som signatur i den enormt populära tv-serien Mad Men. Onsdag 6 oktober kommer han till Uppsala. Ramble John ”RJ” Krohn startade sin lysande karriär hemma i Ohio, USA. Han lånade ett par skivspelare av en kompis och började sin bana som DJ. Med en mix av hiphop, soul och pop är han nu större än någonsin. Ett bra tecken är att en av hans låtar används som signatur i den enormt populära tv-serien Mad Men. RJD2 säger att en av hans vänner använde RJD2 om honom i sina raplåtar, sedan dess har namnet blivit kvar. Hans första album Deadringer togs emot med jubel av både publiken och branschen. Och det ledde till ett samarbete med rapparen Blueprint som de kallade Soul Position. Det följdes upp av ytterligare två album unlimited EP och 8 million Stories innan han kom med sitt andra soloalbum, Since We Last Spoke, på bolaget Definitive Jux. Sedan dess har han samarbetat med och producerat en mängd rapartister, Copywrite, Cunninlynguists, Cage, MF DOOM, Diverse och Aceyalone, för att ta några. Under 2007 släppte han soloalbumet The Third Hand. RJD2 är en kultartist i skateboardvärlden och skateboardfilmkretsar där hans musik ofta används i filmmontage. Förra året startade han sin egen skivlabel RJ’s Electrical Connections och har återutgett plattor som Your Face Or Your Knee Caps, The Horror, och Since We Last Spoke och en box som han valt att helt enkelt kalla 2002-2010. I år kom hans senaste album Colossus som har fått stor uppmärksamhet över hela världen. Här möter stråkar och slipade syntar råare beats och skarpa melodier. Förutom att han själv använder sin ljusa röst medverkar också inbjudna artister.

  • Lushlife Ritualize About This Record
    LUSHLIFE RITUALIZE ABOUT THIS RECORD "Peace to Roky Erickson / Peace to Bo Derek / So lost in the television / Walk with the elephants / To die by their relatives / Lushlife holy ghost / Float through the tenements / Back to irrelevance" From the moment you hear the bristling boom-bap chorus on album-opener "Totally Mutual Feeling," it's apparent that Lushlife's third full-length finds the Philadelphia rapper-producer at his most introspective. Themes of isolation and mortality permeate Ritualize, a cinematic hour-long odyssey co-produced by TRACK LIST enigmatic production trio, CSLSX (pronounced "Casual Sex") and featuring contributions from Ariel Pink, Killer Mike, Freeway, Marissa Nadler, RJD2, and 01 Total Mutual Feeling 4:00 more.

  • Modeling and Simulating Judgments of Taste
    Computing Point-of-View: Modeling and Simulating Judgments of Taste by Xinyu Hugo Liu Submitted to the Program in Media Arts and Sciences, School of Architecture and Planning, on 1 May 2006, in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Media Arts and Sciences Abstract People have rich points-of-view that afford them the ability to judge the aesthetics of people, things, and everyday happenstance; yet viewpoint has an ineffable quality that is hard to articulate in words, let alone capture in computer models. Inspired by cultural theories of taste and identity, this thesis explores end-to-end computational modeling of people’s tastes—from model acquisition, to generalization, to application—under various realms. Five aesthetical realms are considered—cultural taste, attitudes, ways of perceiving, taste for food, and sense-of-humor. A person’s model is acquired by reading her personal texts, such as a weblog diary, a social network profile, or emails. To generalize a person model, methods such as spreading activation, analogy, and imprimer supplementation are applied to semantic resources and search spaces mined from cultural corpora. Once a generalized model is achieved, a person’s tastes are brought to life through perspective-based applications, which afford the exploration of someone else’s perspective through interactivity and play. The thesis describes model acquisition systems implemented for each of the five aesthetical realms. The techniques of ‘reading for affective themes’ (RATE), and ‘culture mining’ are described, along with their enabling technologies, which are commonsense reasoning and textual affect analysis. Finally, six perspective-based applications were implemented to illuminate a range of real-world beneficiaries to person modeling—virtual mentoring, self-reflection, and deep customization.
