  • Trouble in Paradise
    Trouble in Paradise SEQUENCE A FADE IN NIGHT MED. SHOT DOOR OF A HOUSE A cheap residential district. The house has no architectural character; it is not certain where we are. Near the entrance door is a garbage can, full. A dog is nibbling at some of the garbage. We hear whistling, footsteps. A garbage man comes into the picture. He shoos the dog away. Without pause in whistling, he lifts the garbage can and, followed by camera, goes to the end of the block, which is only a few steps. Now we discover we are in Venice. In the background is a major canal and a typical bridge--romantic background. Gondolas are passing. In the foreground at the sidewalk is the garbage gondola, piled high with garbage. The man dumps his load, leaves the empty can on the sidewalk, gets in the gondola, and paddles away with the grace of a gondolier. Now, in a beautiful tenor voice which is quite a contrast to the garbage, he starts singing a passionate Italian love song. LONG SHOT A GONDOLA Two tourists. Husband and wife. They are in a sentimental embrace. In back is the gondolier. Camera follows gondola a few seconds, coming closer. ANOTHER GONDOLA Camera shoots down. Gondola is covered by a typical little canopy, so that gondolier cannot see the passengers. Camera cuts canopy on one side so that we don't see, at first, who is paddling. In the gondola seat is a woman in evening gown, lots of jewels. She lies in the arms of the gondolier.

I ask myself this but even I don’t have a specific answer yet. During the process where I search for my other self, all my worries will fade away because I must find the person who will lend his shoulders to me.” ~TOP Name: Choi Seung-hyun Date of Birth: November 4, 1987 Skills: Rap, Writing lyrics, Beatbox *Starred in the KBS Drama, ‘I am Sam’ The power to awaken a soul, sometimes it takes pain to be re-born. [~ Pt.One~] -I once wanted to be a lyric poet that composed and recited verses.- I became mesmerized with ‘Hip-Hop’ music when I was in Grade 5. I went crazy for this type of music because I listened to it all day and carefully noted all the rap lyrics. If we have to talk about Hip-Hop music, I have to briefly talk about the roots of American Hip-Hop. When I first started listening to Hip-Hop, it was divided up into East Coast and West Coast in America. Wu Tang Clan and Notorius B.I.G. represented the East Coast (New York) scene and they focused largely on the rap and the lyrics, while representing the West Coast (LA) was 2Pac who focused more on the melody. Although at that time in Korea and from my memory, more people listened to West Coast hip hop but I was more into the East Coast style.

  • Hunting Flowers: Home and Its Poetic Deceits1 Susan Bradley-Smith I Leaving a Town It Is Important to Go in the Early Morning
    Hunting flowers: home and its poetic deceits1 Susan Bradley-Smith i Leaving a town It is important to go In the early morning Pre-dawn light Touches the harbour Between the houses… It is all and alone his Who shoulders his bag And turns towards the bus-station… from ‘Two Silences’, Rosemary Dobson The knowledge of the harbour of still light between the houses, the homes, the places we have left, has its own haunting constancy, and perhaps this grief of leaving is best rendered in poetry. Rosemary Dobson’s ‘Two Silences’2 lends us an image of stealthy and poetic leave- taking, and presents the person leaving home as best doing so in the silence of pre-dawn – as if there is no other proper way. It is the landscape, ultimately, that witnesses the leaving of home, and it is the memory of such landscape that makes us ache when recalling home. Geography owns us, but we too often deceive it. If we believe that we come from ‘country’, is leaving a denial, a betrayal? Is it possible that the costs of such infidelity might be higher for women? When I went to my first big ‘bus station’ – Kingsford Smith International Airport, Sydney – I could not hear the words of farewell and love being spoken to me, so full was my head with the sounds that I believed I would never hear again: high tide at Bronte beach, baby magpies, the gears of the 378 bus struggling to cope with MacPherson Street, climbing up from the Tasman Sea, ‘the ditch’ between Australia and New Zealand, to Bondi Junction.

  • Thesis, the Songs of 10 Rappers Were Analyzed
    ABSTRACT Get Rich or Die Tryin’: A Semiotic Approach to the Construct of Wealth in Rap Music Kristine Ann Davis, M.A. Mentor: Sara J. Stone, Ph.D. For the past 30 years, rap music has made its way into the mainstream of America, taking an increasingly prominent place in popular culture, particularly for youth, its main consumers. This thesis looks at wealth through the lens of semiotics, an important component of critical/cultural theory, using a hermeneutical analysis of 11 rap songs, spanning the last decade of rap music to find signification and representation of wealth in the rap song lyrics. The research finds three important themes of wealth - relationship between wealth and the opposite sex, wealth that garners respect from other people, and wealth as a signifier for “living the good life” - and five signifiers of wealth – money, cars, attire, liquor, and bling.

  • Roots and Routes 188
    Fendler / Roots and Routes 188 ROOTS AND ROUTES Hip-Hop from South Korea Ute Fendler University of Bayreuth [email protected] Abstract With the growing success of hip-hop in South Korea, the discussions about the authenticity of this genre increase and create cleavages between the mainstream and the underground rappers. The paper intends to analyze three examples of the contemporary music scene that are representative of different positions. Taking Simon Frith’s work on popular music as a means to construct identity, the paper suggests questioning the concept of authenticity (“roots”) and proposes instead conceiving hip-hop in South Korea as a movement at the crossroads (“routes”) of various influences and practices. Keywords Authenticity, Identity, Music videos, Performance, R&B, Rap About the Author Ute Fendler is chair of romance cultural and comparative cultural studies at the University of Bayreuth (Germany). Her research interests include intermedial and intercultural phenomenon, popular culture, migration, iconographies, music video, and performance. Kritika Kultura 29 (2017): –213 © Ateneo de Manila University <http://journals.ateneo.edu/ojs/kk/> Fendler / Roots and Routes 189 In the ongoing process of reaching out to global markets, pop music in South Korea undergoes fast changes, mainly under the influence of US-American and Western European markets, as literature on K-pop highlights (Choi and Maliangkay). John Lie dealt with the question of K-pop as music positioned between different influences: K-pop is symptomatic of the cultural transformation of South Korea: at once the almost complete repudiation of traditional cultures—both Confucian and folk—and the repeated rhetorical stress on the continuities between the past and the present: the nearly empty signifier that is South Korean cultural-national identity.

  • Description of the Process of Planning And
    Digitized from Box 1 of the Maria Downs Papers at the Gerald R. Ford Presidential Library MY VERY SPECIAL LADY --- BETTY FORD By Haria DOvms A recent request from the Gerald R. Ford Library for assistance and information regarding the manner in which President and Mrs. Ford entertained during their tenure at the White House involked many fond memories which I thought might be interesting to share with you. The social side of the White House plays a very important role in accom­ plishing the goals of an Administration --- much as a charming savvy spouse assists with the advancement of a partner's pursuits. The partnership of Betty and Jerry Ford in hosting foreign and domestic dignitaries as well as people in general can best be described as an endeavor of love --- with love being defined by the late Fred Allen as II what makes the world go round ------- with a worried expression. 1I Surprised by that last remark? So am I. It sounds more like something Betty Ford would say rather than something I would write about them --- but as I said earlier --- there are many fond memories, many humorous tales and even a few tears involved in working for and working with a very special lady. The Ford Library turned to me for assistance because I was the White House Social Secretary for President and Mrs. Ford. Let me explain a little bit about what White House Social Secretaries are and what they do. To begin with we are a rather rare breed ot."hlT-ds --- there have been only seven White House Soci al Secretaries in the history of our country.
