  • Visual Metaphors on Album Covers: an Analysis Into Graphic Design's
    Visual Metaphors on Album Covers: An Analysis into Graphic Design’s Effectiveness at Conveying Music Genres by Vivian Le A THESIS submitted to Oregon State University Honors College in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Honors Baccalaureate of Science in Accounting and Business Information Systems (Honors Scholar) Presented May 29, 2020 Commencement June 2020 AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF Vivian Le for the degree of Honors Baccalaureate of Science in Accounting and Business Information Systems presented on May 29, 2020. Title: Visual Metaphors on Album Covers: An Analysis into Graphic Design’s Effectiveness at Conveying Music Genres. Abstract approved:_____________________________________________________ Ryann Reynolds-McIlnay The rise of digital streaming has largely impacted the way the average listener consumes music. Consequentially, while the role of album art has evolved to meet the changes in music technology, it is hard to measure the effect of digital streaming on modern album art. This research seeks to determine whether or not graphic design still plays a role in marketing information about the music, such as its genre, to the consumer. It does so through two studies: 1. A computer visual analysis that measures color dominance of an image, and 2. A mixed-design lab experiment with volunteer participants who attempt to assess the genre of a given album. Findings from the first study show that color scheme models created from album samples cannot be used to predict the genre of an album. Further findings from the second theory show that consumers pay a significant amount of attention to album covers, enough to be able to correctly assess the genre of an album most of the time.

  • Norway's Jazz Identity by © 2019 Ashley Hirt MA
    Mountain Sound: Norway’s Jazz Identity By © 2019 Ashley Hirt M.A., University of Idaho, 2011 B.A., Pittsburg State University, 2009 Submitted to the graduate degree program in Musicology and the Graduate Faculty of the University of Kansas in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy, Musicology. __________________________ Chair: Dr. Roberta Freund Schwartz __________________________ Dr. Bryan Haaheim __________________________ Dr. Paul Laird __________________________ Dr. Sherrie Tucker __________________________ Dr. Ketty Wong-Cruz The dissertation committee for Ashley Hirt certifies that this is the approved version of the following dissertation: _____________________________ Chair: Date approved: ii Abstract Jazz musicians in Norway have cultivated a distinctive sound, driven by timbral markers and visual album aesthetics that are associated with the cold mountain valleys and fjords of their home country. 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.

  • Why Challenge?
    I get it. It’s a summer trip - WHY CHALLENGE? We love Challenge, and it’s as simple as this: God uses Challenge to change lives. Challenge takes students beyond a mountaintop moment, and equips them to live life on mission for Christ. If you talk to students who have been on a Challenge trip, you’ll hear stories like this: “At Challenge this week I met new awesome friends, grew closer to others, and was challenged to always show God’s love to others, even when it’s scary, uncomfortable, or I just don’t feel like it, because it’s a choice to be all in for God and I want others to see His glory through me.” This year, the theme is “Restless: Longing and Belonging”, using the power of the gospel to point to Christ as the only one that can turn our longing to belonging. For more stories, check the top corners of this info sheet - there are so many times when God has used Challenge to impact students. We’re really excited for this summer (yes, we know it’s a ways away), and to see how God will use Challenge to work in our students! QUESTIONS? JULY 13-18, 2020 CONTACT EMILY KANSAS CITY, MO [email protected] “God puts us through tough situations because He loves us. It’s how we grow.” FAQ’S Here’s the basics, the details, and answers to some of our most frequently asked questions about Challenge. If we missed something, just ask! Give me the basics.

  • Fresh Off the Most Successful Album of His Prolific Career, I'm Comin' Over
    Fresh off the most successful album of his prolific career, I’m Comin’ Over, which earned him a #1 debut and numerous industry accolades, Chris Young says he kept getting asked the same question about his hotly anticipated follow up: “Are you feeling the pressure?” But in truth, he wasn’t. Back in the co-producer’s chair with Corey Crowder for the second time (third if you count the 2016 holiday classic, It Must Be Christmas), Young felt completely at ease working on his seventh studio album, Losing Sleep. “I would argue there was less pressure,” says the star, who was just inducted as the newest member of the Grand Ole Opry. “We were even more comfortable than we were last time, and instead of it being like ‘We have to nail this,’ now it was like ‘OK, we did something really cool last time. Let’s try and build on that.’” Young is no stranger to building on success. Over his nearly 12 years with RCA Nashville, he’s steadily taken on more and more responsibility with each project, writing a few more songs each time, staying immersed in his craft and eventually taking the reins completely. With his last project, I’m Comin’ Over, the Tennessee native funneled his wide range of influences into a sound that miXed reverence for country’s past with a sense of eXcitement about its future – and it connected with fans like never before. “I’m Comin’ Over,” “Think of You” (featuring Cassadee Pope), and “Sober Saturday Night” (featuring Vince Gill) all reached the top of the country radio charts, while the first two singles from the project have both earned Platinum-record status.
