Menurut koran Inggris The Sun, Jacko -nama beken Jackson- mengucapkan dua kalimat syahadat di rumah sahabatnya yang jugakomposer album terlaris Thriller, Steve Porcaro, di Los Angeles dan dihadiri seorang penyanyi ternama, Yosef Islam – dulunya bernama Cat Steven sebelum masuk Islam. Dalam momen religius tersebut, Jacko duduk di lantai dengan menggunakan topi kecil berwarna hitam dan dipandu seorang imam. Kabar menghebohkan datang dari si King of Pop Michael Jackson. Penyanyi yang akrab disapa Jacko itu disebut-sebut telah memeluk agama Islam. Jacko memeluk Islam dengan mengucapkan dua kalimat syahadat di rumah temannya di Los Angeles, Amerika Serikat. Nama Jacko pun berubah menjadi Mikaeel. "Mikaeel adalah nama salah satu malaikat dalam Islam," ujar seorang sumber. Jacko sebenarnya sempat ditawari nama Mustafa, namun ditolaknya . Saat mengucapkan dua kalimat syahadat, Jacko duduk di lantai dengan mengenakan topi kecil. Momen tersebut berlangsung sangat khidmat. Jacko memutuskan masuk Islam setelah ia mendengarkan pengalaman produser dan penulis albumnya. Kedua orang tersebut meyakinkan pelantun 'Ben' itu, bahwa setelah menjadi muslim hidup mereka lebih baik. 4 LAGU - LAGU Dari Michael Jakson 1. Michael Jackson - We've Had Enough 2.

    The Dreamcast, Console of the Avant-Garde

    Loading… The Journal of the Canadian Game Studies Association Vol 6(9): 82-99 http://loading.gamestudies.ca The Dreamcast, Console of the Avant-Garde Nick Montfort Mia Consalvo Massachusetts Institute of Technology Concordia University [email protected] [email protected] Abstract We argue that the Dreamcast hosted a remarkable amount of videogame development that went beyond the odd and unusual and is interesting when considered as avant-garde. After characterizing the avant-garde, we investigate reasons that Sega's position within the industry and their policies may have facilitated development that expressed itself in this way and was received by gamers using terms that are associated with avant-garde work. We describe five Dreamcast games (Jet Grind Radio, Space Channel 5, Rez, Seaman, and SGGG) and explain how the advances made by these industrially productions are related to the 20th century avant- garde's lesser advances in the arts. We conclude by considering the contributions to gaming that were made on the Dreamcast and the areas of inquiry that remain to be explored by console videogame developers today. Author Keywords Aesthetics; art; avant-garde; commerce; console games; Dreamcast; game studios; platforms; politics; Sega; Tetsuya Mizuguchi Introduction A platform can facilitate new types of videogame development and can expand the concept of videogaming. The Dreamcast, however brief its commercial life, was a platform that allowed for such work to happen and that accomplished this. It is not just that there were a large number of weird or unusual games developed during the short commercial life of this platform. We argue, rather, that avant-garde videogame development happened on the Dreamcast, even though this development occurred in industrial rather than "indie" or art contexts.
