  • On Don Cherry's Citizenship in the Six String Nation
    Why I’m revoking Don Cherry’s citizenship in the Six String Nation. The Six String Nation project was conceived in the divisive atmosphere of the lead up to the 1995 Quebec Referendum on sovereignty. Referenda are necessarily divisive. They take complex problems and cast them as simple choices, usually just between Yes or No. The media took its cues accordingly and the whole debate was framed as blue vs. red, Quebec vs. Ottawa, French vs. English. Even the responses of the rest of Canadians whom the referendum made mere bystanders could only be funnelled into the polarities of “Don’t Go” and “Good Riddance”. But how was that referendum supposed to account for the voices of indigenous people in Quebec, or francophones outside of Quebec or any of the thousands of other perspectives there are on what it is to be Canadian? Well, of course it wasn’t meant to. So the Six String Nation project was meant to invite those conversations by putting diverse histories and perspectives from different communities and cultures and characters into one object - a guitar - the very essence of which is to create harmony out of internal tensions. It would exist not only as an object that illustrated that complex truth but also as a living instrument through which those who played it and those who heard it could articulate those perspectives in their own way in their own place and time. Given my experience shepherding the project around the country and beyond, I can say that it has succeeded in doing just that in however small a way.

  • Trade-Marks Issues in Advertising

MBDOCS_1210508.5 MCMILLAN BINCH LLP February 9, 2004 Page 2 MCMILLAN BINCH LLP TRADE-MARK ISSUES IN ADVERTISING INTRODUCTION Trade-marks are one of the most powerful marketing tools for any business. Consumers use trade-marks to identify product quality and the manufacturer. Trade-marks are also used by the advertisers to build goodwill and encourage brand recognition. Considering the creative and ever-changing nature of the industry, there are numerous ways in which a trade-mark may be used in an advertising or marketing campaign. Some of the increasingly popular campaigns include cross-promotion or co-branding, comparative advertising and ambush marketing. The following is a discussion of some of the intellectual property concerns involved in these advertising campaigns. CO-PROMOTING AND CO-BRANDING It is becoming more common for trade-mark owners to join forces to promote their wares and services and potentially reach a new market or revitalize a brand. Recently, Kraft Canada Inc. ran a back-to-school promotion that entitled those purchasing a box of Kraft Dinner to win Crayola products. The purchaser was asked to locate a code number inside the box of Kraft Dinner and then log on to the website ytv.com.

Professor Cristina Mislán Professor Sandy Davidson Professor Amanda Hinnant Professor Becky Scott MASCULINITY AND THE NHL Acknowledgements I would like to begin by thanking my committee chair, Dr. Cristina Mislán, for her guidance and help throughout this project, and beyond. From the first class I took at Missouri, Mass Media Seminar, to the thesis itself, she encouraged me to see the world through different lenses and inspired a passion for cross-disciplined study. Her assistance was invaluable in completing this project. Next, I would like to thank my committee members: Dr. Sandy Davidson, Dr. Amanda Hinnant and Dr. Becky Scott. All three members provided insight and feedback into different portions of the project at its early stages and each one made the study stronger. Dr. Davidson’s tireless support and enthusiasm was infectious and her suggestion to explore the legal concerns the NHL might have about violence and head injuries led me to explore the commoditization of players.

Lead singer, guitarist, and figurehead Jeffrey Lee Pierce fits in easily with Tthe genius songwriting of Arthur Lee (Love), Chris Hillman (Byrds), and John Doe and Exene (X). Unfortunately, neither he nor his band achieved the notoriety of his fellow luminary Angelinos. From 1979 to 1996, Jeffrey manned the Gun Club ship through thick and mostly thin. Understandably, the initial Fire of Love and Miami lineup of Ward Dotson (guitar), Rob Ritter (bass), Jeffrey Lee Pierce (vocals/ guitar) and Terry Graham (drums) remains the most beloved; setting the spooky, blues-punk template for future Gun Club releases. At the time of its release, Fire of Love was heralded by East Coast critics as one of the best albums of 1981.

    BASKE TBALL AND PHILOSOPHY The Philosophy of Popular Culture The books published in the Philosophy of Popular Culture series will il- luminate and explore philosophical themes and ideas that occur in popu- lar culture. The goal of this series is to demonstrate how philosophical inquiry has been reinvigorated by increased scholarly interest in the inter- section of popular culture and philosophy, as well as to explore through philosophical analysis beloved modes of entertainment, such as movies, TV shows, and music. Philosophical concepts will be made accessible to the general reader through examples in popular culture. This series seeks to publish both established and emerging scholars who will engage a major area of popular culture for philosophical interpretation and exam- ine the philosophical underpinnings of its themes. Eschewing ephemeral trends of philosophical and cultural theory, authors will establish and elaborate on connections between traditional philosophical ideas from important thinkers and the ever-expanding world of popular culture.

  • West Hollywood, California's Go-To-Guide to the City's Three
    West Hollywood, California’s go-to-guide to the City’s Three Districts The Sunset Strip After decades of notoriety, the Sunset Strip continues to blaze its own path as a world-famous cultural landmark, setting trends in music, hotels, dining and shopping. This most famous stretch of Sunset Boulevard begins and ends in West Hollywood, and like the city it calls home, it is constantly breaking new ground and reinventing itself. Though it’s often been portrayed in movies like Sunset Boulevard, Almost Famous and Rock of Ages, visitors say that nothing compares to seeing the Sunset Strip up close and in person. Bordered on the west by Beverly Hills and on the east by Hollywood, this iconic 1.5 mile stretch of Sunset Boulevard features an array of world-class hotels, nightclubs, restaurants, shops and spas. Through the years, the Sunset Strip has seen it all, starting with the seedy glitz of the 1920s, when Prohibition fueled the rise of nightclubs and speakeasies. Because West Hollywood was not yet an incorporated city, this strip of Sunset Boulevard was lightly policed, making the Strip the perfect playground for the rebellious denizens of early Hollywood. By the 1940s, swanky nightclubs like Ciro’s, Trocadero and Mocambo reigned supreme, attracting A-list celebrity clientele like Marilyn Monroe along with less savory characters like gangster Bugsy Siegel, who called the Strip his stomping grounds. In the 1960s, the Sunset Strip became the major gathering place for the counterculture movement in Los Angeles. Janis Joplin, Jimi Hendrix and Jim Morrison were fixtures of the Strip and the surrounding West Hollywood landscape.

This jazz dialect was developed in the decade following the Nazi occupation of Norway, when Norwegians utilized jazz as a subtle tool of resistance to Nazi cultural policies. This dialect was further enriched through the Scandinavian residencies of African American free jazz pioneers Don Cherry, Ornette Coleman, and George Russell, who tutored Norwegian saxophonist Jan Garbarek. Garbarek is credited with codifying the “Nordic sound” in the 1960s and ‘70s through his improvisations on numerous albums released on the ECM label. Throughout this document I will define, describe, and contextualize this sound concept. Today, the Nordic sound is embraced by Norwegian musicians and cultural institutions alike, and has come to form a significant component of modern Norwegian artistic identity. This document explores these dynamics and how they all contribute to a Norwegian jazz scene that continues to grow and flourish, expressing this jazz identity in a world marked by increasing globalization.

  • 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.
