  • Alien She Is the Rst Exhibition to Examine the Lasting Impact of Riot Grrrl on Artists and Cultural Producers Working Today
    Alien She is the rst exhibition to examine the lasting impact of Riot Grrrl on artists and cultural producers working today. A pioneering punk feminist movement that emerged in the early 1990s in reaction to pervasive and violent sexism, racism and homophobia in the punk music scene and in the culture at large, Riot Grrrl had a pivotal inuence. The movement inspired many around the world to pursue socially and politically progressive careers as artists, activists, authors and educators. Emphasizing female and youth empowerment, collaborative organization, creative resistance and DIY ethics, Riot Grrrl helped a new generation to become active feminists and create their own culture and communities that reect their values and experiences. This exhibition focuses on seven people whose visual art practices were informed by their contact with Riot Grrrl. In various ways, they have incorporated, expanded upon, or reacted to Riot Grrrl’s ideology, tactics and aesthetics. Many of them work in multiple disciplines, such as visual art, music, documentary lm, new media, curation, writing and performance – a reection of the movement’s artistic diversity and mutability. Each artist is represented by several projects from the last 20 years, including new and rarely seen works, providing an insight into the development of their creative practices and individual trajectories. Alien She’s historical section is designed to be plural and open-ended; this is a living history, not a sealed past. By representing numerous voices and experiences, rather than outlining one single denitive story, we hope it will reect the multiplicity that was such an integral part of the original movement.

Adam Clark Victoria Malawey, Gender & Music The Riot Continues: The Problematic Westernization of Pussy Riot “We’re gonna take over the punk scene for feminists” -Kathleen Hanna Although they share feminist ideals, the Russian art collective Pussy Riot distinguishes themselves from the U.S.-based Riot Grrrl Movement, as exemplified by the band Bikini Kill, because of their location-specific protest work in Moscow. Understanding how Pussy Riot is both similar to and different from Riot Grrrl is important for contextualizing the way we think about diverse, transnational feminisms so that we may develop more inclusive and nuanced ways in conceptualizing these feminisms in the future. While Pussy Riot shares similar ideals championed by Bikini Kill in the Riot Grrrl movement, they have temporal and location-specific activisms and each group has their own ways of protesting injustices against women and achieving their unique goals.

  • Riot Dyke: Music, Identity, and Community in Lesbian Film
    i Riot Dyke: Music, Identity, and Community in Lesbian Film by Alana Kornelsen A thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Affairs in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in Music and Culture Carleton University Ottawa, ON © 2016 Alana Kornelsen ii Abstract This thesis examines the use of diegetic pre-composed music in three American lesbian feature films. Numerous trends can be noted in the selection of music in lesbian film broadly— music is often selected to draw on insider knowledge of the target audience of these films, creating cachet. This cachet comes with accompanying “affiliating identifications” (Kassabian 2001) that allow music to be used in the films’ construction of characters’ identities. This is evident in the treatment of music in many lesbian films: characters frequently listen to, discuss, and perform music. This thesis focuses specifically on riot grrrl music and the closely linked genre of queercore (which together Halberstam ([2003] 2008) refers to as “riot dyke”) in three films that focus on the lives of young women: The Incredibly True Adventure of Two Girls in Love (dir. Maria Maggenti, 1995), All Over Me (dir. Alex Sichel, 1997), and Itty Bitty Titty Committee (dir. Jamie Babbit, 2007). By examining how diegetic riot dyke music is used in these three films to build characters’ identities and contribute to the films’ narratives I argue that in these films, riot dyke music is presented as being central to certain queer identities and communities, and that this music (as well as the community that often accompanies it) is portrayed as instigating or providing opportunities for characters’ personal growth and affirming characters’ identities in adverse environments.

  • A Longitudinal Content Analysis of Feminist Themes in Punk Rock
    ACT LIKE A PUNK, SING LIKE A FEMINIST: A LONGITUDINAL CONTENT ANALYSIS OF FEMINIST THEMES IN PUNK ROCK SONG LYRICS, 1970-2009 Lauren E. Levine Thesis Prepared for the Degree of MASTER OF ARTS UNIVERSITY OF NORTH TEXAS May 2015 APPROVED: Koji Fuse, Major Professor Tracy Everbach, Committee Member Gwen Nisbett, Committee Member Cory Armstrong, Chair of the Frank W. and Sue Mayborn School of Journalism Dorothy Bland, Dean of the Frank W. and Sue Mayborn School of Journalism Costas Tsatsoulis, Interim Dean of the Toulouse Graduate School Levine, Lauren. E. Act Like a Punk, Sing Like a Feminist: A Longitudinal Content Analysis of Feminist Themes in Punk Rock Song Lyrics, 1970-2009. Master of Arts (Journalism), May 2015, 104 pp., 6 tables, references, 123 titles. Punk rock music has long been labeled sexist as copious media-generated accounts and reports of the genre concentrate on male artists, hyper-masculine performances, and lyrics considered to be aggressive, sexist, and misogynist. However, scholars have rarely examined punk rock music longitudinally, focusing heavily on 1980s and 1990s manifestations of the genre. Furthermore, few systematic content analyses of feminist themes in punk rock song lyrics have been conducted. The present research is a longitudinal content analysis of lyrics of 600 punk rock songs released for four decades between 1970 and 2009 to examine the prevalence of and longitudinal shifts in antiestablishment themes, the prevalence of and longitudinal shifts in sexist themes relative to feminist themes, the prevalence of and longitudinal shifts in specific feminist branches, and what factors are related to feminism. Using top-rated albums retrieved from Sputnik Music’s “Best Punk Albums” charts, systematic random sampling was applied to select 50 songs for each combination of three gender types and four decades.

  • Packet 4.Pdf
    VICO: Very Intense Conceptual Open/The New SCIENCE Brought to you by Will Holub-Moorman and Jacob Reed Packet 4 1. Emanuel Lasker famously played this opening to defeat a surprised José Raul Capablanca during a 1914 tournament in St. Petersburg. This was the most common opening used by Magnus Carlsen to defend the 2014 World Chess Championship against Viswanathan Anand, who met it each time by playing a variation in which Black plays Nf6 ("knight-f-six") on the third move. A different defense against this opening involves fianchettoing the Black bishop to b7 after the White bishop retreats to b3, and was developed by theoreticians in the Russian city of Arkhangelsk. This variation of the open game is most commonly defended against with a move named for Paul Morphy, in which Black attacks the White bishop by pushing a pawn to (*) a6, usually forcing White to either capture Black’s knight on c3 or retreat to a4. For 10 points, name this extremely common chess opening, characterized by the sequence e4-e5, Nf3-Nc6 ("knight-f- three, knight-c-6"), Bb5 ("bishop-b-five"), which is named for a Spanish priest. ANSWER: the Ruy Lopez [accept the Spanish Game or the Spanish Opening; also accept the Berlin Defence and the Arkhangelsk or Archangel Defence, as well as Ruy Lopez, exchange variation; prompt on more general answers such as "e4," "e4-e5," or the "open game"] <WHM> 2. The Protagoras ends with an argument over the views of two of these people on the concept of virtue. These people's engagement with the gods is attacked at the end of Book II of the Republic.

Hardcore punk-rock had been mostly a male phenomenon. Girls were excluded from hardcore the same way they were excluded in society from many other male-only rituals, whether street gangs or USA football. The "riot grrrrls" movement of the 1990s changed the sociopolitical landscape of punk-rock by introducing the "girl factor" into the equation of frustration/ depression/ desperation/ anger. The riot-grrrrls movement originated largely in and around Seattle (Olympia, to be precise), and indeed it was Seattle that boasted the most fertile scene for female-only bands. The movement's manifesto was the article "Women, sex and rock and roll", published by "Puncture" in 1989. The first radio program to address the angry young girls was "Your Dream Girl", conducted by Lois Maffeo on Olympia's KAOS. One of the earliest riot-grrrrls was Molly Neuman, who joined Allison Wolfe to create the fanzine "Girl Germs", one of the main alternative media for college girls. In the summer of 1991 they celebrated themselves at the Olympia campus, shouting their slogan "Revolution Girl Style Now!" The mood had been changing throughout the 1980s: the magazine "Sassy" had been founded already in 1987 as an alternative, not afraid to tackle brutal themes, to the conventional magazines for teenage girls.

  • The Rhetoric of Riot Grrrl
    “We’re the Girls With the Bad Reputations”: The Rhetoric of Riot Grrrl A thesis presented to the faculty of the Graduate School of Western Carolina University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in English. By Brittany Tyson Garrett Director: Dr. Beth Huber Assistant Professor of English English Department Committee Members: Dr. Marsha Lee Baker, English Dr. Laura Wright, English November 2011 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS First, I would like to thank my committee. I am forever indebted to you for the wonderful guidance you provided me. Thank you for the criticism that made me stronger, the words of encouragement that kept me breathing, and the laughs that made this a bearable process. It has been a long journey, but one worth making. In particular, I would like to thank my director, Beth Huber. Stumbling into your class nearly two years ago was one of the best decisions I ever made. Thank you for opening my eyes, convincing me to join the “dark side,” and believing in me. You changed my life. Thank you, Marsha Lee Baker, for calming my panic attacks and making me smile. You challenged me and provided kind words when I needed them, and for that I am eternally grateful. And to Laura Wright, a fellow riot grrrl: I am honored to have worked with you and hope to again some day. You are truly an inspiration. Second, I would like to thank my friends and family, without which I would not have made it this far. Emily Darnell, thank you for being my “support group” and listening to my panicked ramblings at all hours of the day.

    173 Multilingual Discourses Vol. 2.1-2. (Summer 2015) Lars Richter The Rebel Girl and the Wrecking Ball – The Cruel Optimism of Empowerment and the Revival of Feminism in Contemporary Popular Music n August 2013, NYC based rock band The Julie Ruin released the video for “Oh Come On” as a preview to their first album Run Fast. I It shows the band performing their song against a plain background with a set of Christmas lights shaped to read the name of the band as the most spectacular visual. While sharing the frame with the band, taking front and center stage is The Julie Ruin’s lead singer Kathleen Hanna (see fig. 1). In the early 1990s, Hanna had been a member of punk rock band Bikini Kill, one of the seminal representatives of the Riot Grrrl-movement.1 The release of “Oh Come On” marked the return of Kathleen Hanna after an eight year hiatus from making music due to a serious case of Lyme disease, a potentially lethal bacterial infection (Anderson, The Punk Singer). The video’s release also coincided with a renewed interest in the Riot Grrrl-movement that, twenty years after the movement’s peak, inspired a rediscovery by audiences. In 2011, Bikini Kill’s first album Pussy Whipped celebrated its twentieth anniversary and 1 Riot Grrrl was a feminist figuration of the punk subculture that first emerged in Olympia, WA and Washington D.C. in the early 1990s. For a history of the Riot Grrrl movement, see Sara Marcus’ Girls to the Front (2010). Lars Richter 174 became subject to considerable media attention.
