The viewer experience of the feeling of nostalgia often associated with the analog and retro aesthetics is examined in depth. Finally, the thesis argues that use of analog and retro aesthetics and the associated nostalgia this evokes in the spectator can position and distinguish a music video in the market towards potential audiences. By using a theoretical analytical approach, the research proposes answers to the primary research question: What are the meanings and purposes of using analog and retro aesthetics in contemporary music videos and in which way are they related to nostalgia? Subsequent questions arising from the research explore the differences in the use of analog and retro aesthetics by mainstream or alternative bands. Specifically, a distinction is made between the use of the aesthetic merely to follow a trend as opposed to using the aesthetic to emphasizing the message behind the music video.

Interactions did a study on production of physics majors in universities across the country since 1997. “[Ten years ago] was kind of a rough time for physics across the U.S.,” physics department chair Earl Blodgett said. “The number of people graduat- ing with physics majors was pretty low, and just like everyone else we were in a bit of a lull.” The department has made a comeback since then. According to the March/April 2007 issue of Interactions, UWRF had a 94 percent increase in physics undergraduate degrees granted in 2003 - 2005 compared to 1997 - 1999. “We grew really fast [since 1997] faster than most other departments,” Blodgett said. “So we were in the top 10 percent of all of the undergraduate physics programs in the country.” The department does research in several different areas. Their main project is called IceCube, which Kenny Yoo/Student Voice involves researching neutrinos in the South Pole. A fingerstyle guitarist, Michael Young, gave a performance in the Falcon’s Nest of the University Center March 5.
