Over the last ten years, the EU has Igiven Imperial grants in the region of £342 million. The research hints towards the idea that if the public vote for Brexit in June’s referendum, this funding would be lost, leaving an annual £1 billion gap in British research. It reports that 22 other London institutions also benefit from EU grants, with King’s getting 30% of its funding from the EU, and Greenwich 25%. Digital Science’s report also showed that the UK is the second- biggest beneficiary of EU funding for science, getting a quarter of its funding from the union, amounting to £967 million in funding last year • Investments are indirect but clash with college’s cancer research alone.

  • Blssm Paper Artist Statement
    !1 of !7 Simon DeBevoise Artist Statement Prof. Maria Sonevytsky 12.12.15 blssm: An Exploration of Cuteness, Consumer Culture and PC Music blssm is an experiment in aesthetics. Tackling a genre of unlimited ambition and excess, I realized quickly that my project could not be a limp imitation of PC Music; the music mandates instead a full-fledged devotion to the “kitsch imagery, catchy hooks, synthetic colours” (Tank Magazine, AG Cook) so central to figures like AG Cook, Hannah Diamond, SOPHIE and GFOTY. I used Hannah Diamond’s “Every Night” as an aural point of reference, reinterpreting the song’s poppy chord progression and setting my tempo to an upbeat 128 bpm. Layering big, shimmering, sawtooth synths over a syncopated kick drum and bass, I created a foundation with which I could engage with the camp and consumerism typically antithetical to the underground music scene yet so integral to the PC Music label. Recreating PC Music’s visual and aural aesthetic, I aim to consider the issues of gender and sexuality at play by framing the genre within discourses on Studio Audio Art, Cyborg Feminism, Japanese Kawaii culture, consumerism, and post-irony. To best introduce the uninformed listener to PC Music (which, importantly, stands for computer music and not politically correct music), I’ve included lyrics from Hannah Diamond’s “Pink and Blue:” We look good in pink and blue You love me, maybe it's true You say, ‘Baby, how are you?’ I’m okay, how about you? DeBevoise !2 of !7 Diamond’s facile rhymes and innocent lyrics craft an image of cuteness and middle-school naivety that play into PC Music’s brand of femininity.

  • Articulating the Dancefloor Examining Site, Interaction and Participation in Club Culture Through Interdisciplinary Creative Practice
    Articulating the Dancefloor Examining site, interaction and participation in club culture through interdisciplinary creative practice. Barnaby Jack McNeill Adams PhD by Composition University of York Department of Music October 2020 ABSTRACT This folio of creative works is comprised of a set of installations and fixed-media audio works composed between January 2017 and December 2019. The works in the folio take inspiration from a variety of ideas in club cultures and visual arts that are hybridised to form my approach to creative practice. The motivation behind the creative work is to closely examine the similarities between club culture and the visual arts, particularly in relation to notions of site, interaction and participation. The resulting works employ a variety of materials and disciplines in their creation, including techniques from artistic practices and material gathered from participants, collaborators and sources of personal inspiration in music and the visual arts. The submitted work aims to create work that is not for the club, but about the club, through the lens of my own embodied experiences and those of participants in club spaces and club culture. 2 Table of Contents ABSTRACT ...................................................................................................................................................... 2 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS .................................................................................................................................. 4 DECLARATION ...............................................................................................................................................

Please allow your PDF reader to access the internet upon request in order to use this helpful feature. Yet while we’re still yearning for the energy of in-person meetings, the world has grown a bit smaller almost unnoticed—and our elbow room has expanded considerably. We’ve found close and trusted allies across Europe with whom, it seemed, we spent more e.g. Footer: e.g. Trailer: time than with our roommates and partners.

Both of the albums were produced, written, arranged, programmed and performed by Mothersbaugh himself and engineered and mixed by former Devo keyboardist and guitarist Bob Casale.
