    Marx, Windows Into the Soul: Surveillance and Popular Culture, Chapter A Culture and Contexts (intro from printed book) News stories don’t satisfy on a human level. We know that Guantanamo is still open, but do we really know what that means?’ The idea is to experience an emotional understanding, so it’s not just an intellectual abstraction. -Laura Poitras, filmmaker The structure, process and narrative units that make up most of the book rely on language in presenting facts and argument. In contrast, the emphasis in this unit is on forms of artistic expression. .Images and music are one component of the culture of surveillance that so infuses our minds and everyday life. The symbolic materials and meanings of culture are social fabrications (though not necessarily social deceptions). They speak to (and may be intended to create or manipulate) needs, aspirations, and fears. Culture communicates meaning and can express (as well as shape) the shared concerns of a given time period and place. Surveillance technology is not simply applied; it is also experienced by agents, subjects, and audiences who define, judge and have feelings about being watched or a watcher. Our ideas and feelings about surveillance are somewhat independent of the technology per se. As with the devil in Spanish literary tradition (image below) the artist can serve to take the lid off of what is hidden, revealing deeper meanings. Here the artist acts in parallel to the detective and the whistleblower: Marx, Windows Into the Soul: Surveillance and Popular Culture, Chapter A In the original version of the book I divided the cultural materials into two units.

On Stern: m.r.s. top. Beauty in the eye of the beholder? No, today, beauty is in the eye of the Internet. This, 2015, was the year that beauty went fully social, when A-listers valued their looks according to their “likes” and one Instagram post could connect with millions of followers. Case in point: the Ali MacGraw-esque look created for Kendall Jenner (THR beauty moment No. 9) by hairstylist Jen Atkin.

  • Livestock Showmanship 101
    LIVESTOCK SHOWMANSHIP 101 GOAT SHOWMANSHIP AT HOME - Let your goat adjust for a few days after arrival before you begin training. - Spend a lot of time with your goat. It is important for them to develop a relationship with you. - Begin by walking your goat on a halter, then switch to a chain or chain halter (whatever you will be showing with) after they learn to walk. - Begin by tying your goat up for 10 minutes with supervision. Slowly build up to longer times. WALKING - Be sure to walk on the opposite side of the goat from where the judge is standing. - When walking, move slow and easy at a constant speed. - Hold the collar with your right hand. Your left hand should apply gentle but firm pressure to the back of the head. - If your goat resists walking, place a hand on the goats tail to encourage it to walk. it. GOAT SHOWMANSHIP SETTING UP - The goal is to have all four legs squarely under the goat with the back legs slightly wider than the front. This helps the goat look wider in the hind end. - Always maintain control of your goat with one hand. - Use the other hand to reach around your goat to set legs when needed. - Set rear legs first, then front legs - When setting legs, pick up and set the foot in one fluid motion. - The goat will resist less if you pick it up above the knee/hock. - Once the goat is set have it stand with its neck at a 90 degree angle and the ears up.

    A FEMINIST CULTURAL STUDY OF IDENTITY, HAIR LOSS, AND CHEMOTHERAPY by Céline Guillerm A Dissertation Submitted to the Faculty of The Dorothy F. Schmidt College of Arts and Letters In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Florida Atlantic University Boca Raton, Florida December 2015 Copyright 2015 by Céline Guillerm ii ACKNOWLEDGMENTS The seed of this dissertation was planted during my first year enrolled as a doctoral student, when I was diagnosed with Hodgkin’s Lymphoma. The following year, I met Dr. Scodari when I took her course in “Feminist Cultural Studies.” Her class was truly a revelation and she became my mentor. Therefore, I would like to express my sincere and deepest gratitude to Dr. Scodari for her expert guidance and support throughout my research. I am forever grateful for her patience and encouragement, and for always being available. I also would like to thank Dr. Munson and Dr. Blattner for serving on my committee. Thank you for believing in me and encouraging me all these years. Finally, I would like to thank my parents, my sisters, my nieces and my nephew, my grandmother, my uncle, and my dear friends for their love and support. I love you. iv ABSTRACT Author: Céline Guillerm Title: A Feminist Cultural Study of Identity, Hair Loss, and Chemotherapy Institution: Florida Atlantic University Dissertation Advisor: Dr. Christine Scodari Degree: Doctor of Philosophy Year: 2015 The main aim of this dissertation is to discuss the way women negotiate the cultural meaning of hair loss, alopecia, as a result of undergoing chemotherapy, and to understand, accordingly, how cancer’s cultural effects regarding women can be deeply different from those of men.
