Female artists, social media and alternative economy: the case of Amanda Palmer Beatriz Medeiros165 and Beatriz Polivanov166 Abstract In this paper we seek to investigate the strategies that the independent artist Amanda Palmer uses in order to gain visibility and financial capital to promote her music. Our theoretical background is mainly related to the process of self- presentation in social media, along with Bourdieu’s (2013) notion of symbolic capital. Based on the analysis of posts made by the artist on social network sites, such as Twitter and Instagram, apart from her blog and book / memoir (Palmer, 2014), we argue that her approaches for getting the audience engaged with her pledges can be gathered in three axes: a) public exposure of intimacy; b) negotiations of asking and c) advertising her crowdfunding projects.

  • Online Music Communities: Challenging Sexism, Capitalism, and Authority in Popular Music
    ONLINE MUSIC COMMUNITIES ONLINE MUSIC COMMUNITIES: CHALLENGING SEXISM, CAPITALISM, AND AUTHORITY IN POPULAR MUSIC By PAUL ALEXANDER AITKEN, B.FA. A Thesis Submitted to the School of Graduate Studies in Partial Requirements for the Degree Master of Arts McMaster University © Copyright by Paul Alexander Aitken, September 2007 MASTER OF ARTS (2007) McMaster University (Music Criticism) Hamilton, Ontario TITLE: Online Music Communities: Challenging Sexism, Capitalism, and Authority in Popular Music AUTHOR: Paul Alexander Aitken, B.FA. (York University) SUPERVISOR: Dr. Christina Baade NUMBER OF PAGES: vii, 167 ii ABSTRACT With its almost exclusive focus on the economics of the music industry, the early-21 st century debate over digital music piracy has obscured other vital areas of study in the relationship between popular music and the Intemet. This thesis addresses some of these neglected areas, specifically issues of agency, representation, discipline, and authority; it examines each of these in relationship to the formation and maintenance different online music communities. I argue that contemporary online trends related to music promotion, consumption, and criticism are, in fact, part of a much larger socio-cultural re-envisioning of the relationships between artists and audiences, artists and the music industry, and among audience members themselves. The relationship between music and the Intemet is not only subversive on the level of economics. I examine these issues in three key areas. Independent women's music cOlmnunities challenge patriarchal authority in the music industry as they use online discussion forums and web sites to advance their own careers. The tension that exists between the traditional for-profit music industry and the developing ethic of sharing in the filesharing community creates the conditions whereby we can imagine aItemative ways that music can circulate in culture.

  • The Construction of Female Gender in Amanda Palmer's Lyrics (1995-2009)
    Jenni Piik “IF THE SLIPPER FITS, YOU WEAR IT, WHORE”: THE CONSTRUCTION OF FEMALE GENDER IN AMANDA PALMER'S LYRICS (1995-2009) A Pro Gradu Thesis Department of English University of Jyväskylä April 2011 HUMANISTINEN TIEDEKUNTA ENGLANNIN LAITOS Jenni Piik “IF THE SLIPPER FITS, YOU WEAR IT, WHORE”: THE CONSTRUCTION OF FEMALE GENDER IN AMANDA PALMER’S LYRICS (1995-2009). Englannin kieli Pro Gradu –tutkielma Huhtikuu 2011 91 sivua Tarkastelen tässä pro gradu –tutkielmassa naissukupuolen rakentumista Yhdysvaltalaisen laulaja-lauluntekijän Amanda Palmerin sanoituksissa vuosina 1995-2009. Palmer esiintyy Bostonissa 2000-luvun alussa perustetussa yhtyeessä The Dresden Dolls rumpali Brian Viglionen kanssa ja toimii myös sooloartistina. Tutkin naissukupuolta Palmerin sanoituksissa kolmen kategorian kautta: naisten ja miesten väliset suhteet; väkivalta; sekä raskaus, abortti, ja raiskaus. Tarkastelen sukupuolta kaksijakoisena; sukupuoli jakaantuu biologiseen sukupuoleen sekä sosiaalisesti rakentuneeseen, opittuun sukupuoleen. Tutkin sukupuolen rakentumista läntisen maailman mieshegemonian näkökulmasta; miessukupuolella on yhteiskunnallinen, sosiaalinen, ja kulttuurinen valta-asema ja sitä vastoin naissukupuolella alisteinen asema. Mieshegemoniassa olemassa olevia valta-asemia tuotetaan ja pidetään yllä mm. sukupuolen sosiaalisella rakentamisella ja ymmärtämällä sukupuoli vastakohtaparin nainen-mies kautta. Sekä naiset että miehet tiedostaen tai tietämättään tukevat tai vastustavat mieshegemoniaa sillä, miten he tuottavat sukupuolta. Naissukupuolen

  • The Tim Ferriss Show Transcripts Episode 67: Amanda Palmer Show Notes and Links at Tim.Blog/Podcast
    The Tim Ferriss Show Transcripts Episode 67: Amanda Palmer Show notes and links at tim.blog/podcast Tim Ferriss: All right. So I'm gonna click "record," and then we're just gonna take a couple of seconds of silence, and then we'll jump right into it. Hello, boys and girls. This is Tim Ferriss, and welcome to another episode of the Tim Ferriss Show where I deconstruct world-class performers, whether they be billionaire hedge-fund managers, early-stage investors, like Peter Thiel, or celebrities, Arnold Schwarzenegger, musicians, chess prodigies, and so on. They have commonalities, and they do have tools and tricks and routines that you can use. This episode, I am interviewing Amanda Palmer, who is a musician, but also a social media virtuoso and innovator as a musician, from the standpoint of both music and business models. Some of you, I'm sure, have seen her hit TED presentation, "The Art of Asking," which has been viewed more than six million times. But her story goes much, much deeper, and we will plumb the depths. We will talk about, of course, perhaps the Dresden Dolls where she first rose to prominence as one-half of that acclaimed punk cabaret duo, then the journey from solo album to leaving her record label altogether and experimenting with things like Kickstarter. She made international news in 2012 when she raised nearly $1.2 million preselling her new album, "Theatre is Evil," which went on to debut in the Billboard Top 10. It's one hell of a story.
