Masculinities and Creativity in Transnational Advertising Agencies OBSESSION WITH BRILLIANCE: MASCULINITIES AND CREATIVITY IN TRANSNATIONAL ADVERTISING AGENCIES. PAUL A.B. PRIDAY (June 2016) A thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy, Department of Gender and Cultural Studies, School of Philosophical and Historical Inquiry, Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences, The University of Sydney. 1 DECLARATION I declare that the substance of this thesis has not been submitted already for any degree, nor is it currently being submitted for another degree. I certify that the intellectual content of this thesis is the product of my own work and that all the assistance received in preparing this thesis has been acknowledged. I certify to the best of my knowledge that all sources of reference and their authors, wherever known, have been acknowledged in this body of work. Signed: Paul A.B. Priday 30 June 2016 i ABSTRACT There is unprecedented interest in the construction and practice of gender in the workplace. In men’s studies, transnational business as an institutional location is recognized as important for understanding masculinities. On average, eighty per cent of the creative personnel in transnational advertising agencies are men. At the level of creative directors on average ninety percent are male. In this thesis I provide an empirically based description of how three cohorts of male advertising practitioners in Sydney, Delhi and Shanghai construct and practice a style of creative masculinity that gives their identities legitimacy and authenticity. I contend that creative masculinity is not hegemonic but is a form of maverick masculinity indexed to creativity. My empirical research consists of ethnographic observation in the M&C Saatchi (Sydney), McCann (Sydney), McCann (Delhi), Ogilvy (Shanghai) advertising agencies and in-depth interviews with male advertising creatives, and the women who work in the same agencies – the latter provide alternative perspectives on male advertising creatives’ identities and practices. It becomes clear that the creative department is a hierarchical ‘men’s club’ that through masculine cultural capital sanctions masculine privilege whilst collapsing traditional notions of class. My analysis identifies advertising as an always already male gendered occupation that is an intensely aggressive and competitive workplace where fluid power relations are used to define the rules of the game and the importance of winning. There is a professional expectation for advertising creatives to consistently produce authentic and award-winning work. This study identifies the persistent and personal state of anxiety that accompanies male advertising creatives as they seek acceptance for their work alongside the conflicting experience of rejection. A close examination of the relationship between creative labour and creative product reveals the importance of the visible display of creative work and the public recognition and endorsement of it. The five chapters, Manspace, Manbrand, Manpower, Manxiety and Manmade, provide an in-depth analysis of advertising as an ‘obsession with brilliance’. ii TABLE OF CONTENTS Declaration .......................................................................................................................... i Abstract ............................................................................................................................... ii Table of Contents .............................................................................................................. iii List of Figures ...................................................................................................................... iv List of Abbreviations ........................................................................................................... v Acknowledgements ........................................................................................................ vii Manplan - Introduction ..................................................................................................... 1 Manspace - A field of dreams ........................................................................................ 24 Manbrand - The self-management of creative masculinity ....................................... 60 Manpower - Dynamic power relations between creative, client and consumer ... 89 Manxiety - The creative worker and the working environment .............................. 123 Manmade - The importance of doing, being and being seen .............................. 161 Conclusions .................................................................................................................... 200 Appendix ....................................................................................................................... 204 Glossary of Terms ........................................................................................................... 211 Bibliography ................................................................................................................... 215 Notes .............................................................................................................................. 222 iii LIST OF FIGURES Manplan – Introduction 0.1 B&T, Leo Burnett, Sydney new creative hires. 9 November 2015. 0.2 The Hindustan Times, 15 January 2014. ‘A Powerful Wedding Affair.’ 0.3 The marriage market in the People’s Park, Shanghai.

My sincere thanks to my hosts who invited me to conduct my research in their agencies. I was welcomed, supported and given complete freedom to meet their people, observe and take part in their daily activities. Their generosity is greatly appreciated.

There would be no thesis without the contributions of my research participants who gave of their time, their thoughts and opinions, creating a rich body of material for me to work with and I hope the result is worthy of their generosity and trust. If it takes a village to raise a child, it takes a department to produce a PhD. I am privileged to belong to the remarkable Department of Gender and Cultural Studies that is an intellectual and social home to its students and staff and where academic generosity is a cherished practice. It has been a privilege to work with Professor Elspeth Probyn as my supervisor and I am deeply grateful for her continued interest in my project and encouragement to put both my head and my heart into my writing. Elspeth’s emotional support and intellectual clarity pushed me to do things I would never have thought I could and gave shape and purpose to my work. I also enjoyed the generosity and encouragement of my co-supervisor, Dr. Prudence Black who always gave me time when I needed it and guidance when I asked for it. I express my sincere thanks to this wonderful supervisory

  • Measuring the Cultural Evolution of Music: with Case Studies of British-American and Japanese Folk, Art, and Popular Music
    Measuring the cultural evolution of music: With case studies of British-American and Japanese folk, art, and popular music Patrick Evan SAVAGE This is an English version of my Japanese Ph.D. dissertation (Ph.D. conferred on March 27, 2017). The final Japanese version of record was deposited in the Japanese National Diet Library in June 2017. #2314910 Ph.D. entrance year: 2014 2016 academic year Tokyo University of the Arts, Department of Musicology Ph.D. dissertation Supervisor: UEMURA Yukio Supervisory committee: TSUKAHARA Yasuko MARUI Atsushi Hugh DE FERRANTI i English abstract Student number: 2314910 Name: Patrick Evan SAVAGE Title: Measuring the cultural evolution of music: With case studies of British-American and Japanese folk, art, and popular music Darwin's theory of evolution provided striking explanatory power that has come to unify biology and has been successfully extended to various social sciences. In this dissertation, I demonstrate how cultural evolutionary theory may also hold promise for explaining diverse musical phenomena, using a series of quantitative case studies from a variety of cultures and genres to demonstrate general laws governing musical change. Chapter one describes previous research and debates regarding music and cultural evolution. Drawing on major advances in the scientific understanding of cultural evolution over the past three decades, I clarify persistent misconceptions about the roles of genes and progress in definitions of evolution, showing that neither is required or assumed. I go on to review older and recent literature relevant to musical evolution at a variety of levels, from Lomax's macroevolutionary interpretation of global patterns of song-style to microevolutionary mechanisms by which minute melodic variations give rise to large tune families.

  • Plaque Unveiling for Alan Morris, 24 February 2021 Speech by Business
    Plaque unveiling for Alan Morris, 24 February 2021 Speech by business partner and co-founder of Mojo, Allan Johnston1 120½ Underwood Street …Our happiest and most successful years were here. Mo would be chuffed to have his plaque right here … we both loved the place. John Singleton owned the building, and still does … he had his SPASM agency here before us. I first met Mo when he was the creative director at Mullins Clarke and Ralph where he had won a Caxton Award for his print work for Jaguar. It was the seventies and a lot of creative people were tired of the formal structure of established ad agencies and decided being freelance would mean more freedom and more fun. We used to gather at the Park Inn Hotel where you could grill your own steak and have a glass of cheap red which suited our meagre earnings at the time. One day Mo, or Alan, as he was known then, asked me how I was handling the freelance gig. I said I found it hard to get motivated and was sleeping in and generally just hanging around. “Me too” he said, “I have to get in the car and drive around the block to pretend I’m going to work!” So we decided to rent an office together and found a place in Burton Street, Darlinghurst for fifty bucks a week plus 5 bucks we’d sling the film company receptionist downstairs to take messages while we were at lunch. You couldn’t miss lunch in those days. That’s where Mo introduced me to Judith, who, unfortunately can’t be here today, and we asked her look after our paltry finances.

  • Spinifex Gum
    Melbourne Recital Centre presents SPINIFEX GUM AN ALL -AUSTRALIAN COLLABORATION OF VOICE, SOUND, MOVEMENT & CHANGE Musical snapshots of life in the Pilbara, performed by the lush voices of Marliya from Gondwana Choirs, Felix Riebl and Ollie McGill (The Cat Empire), plus special guest Emma Donovan. Commissioned to write a song cycle for the choir, Riebl spent several years visiting the Pilbara to build relationships and gather stories. He and Ollie McGill went on to write the album Spinifex Gum about the region’s local tales and characters, true stories of racism and injustice, and the legacies of colonisation. The music production is staunchly modern, built from found sound samples of the Pilbara – rustling leaves, bouncing basketballs and chugging trains. Riebl said of the powerful project, ‘I lived and worked with communities in the Pilbara to develop a suite of songs sung in English and Yindjibarndi, telling stories of contemporary Australia and informed by the culture and traditions of its First Nations. The result is a journey to the sun-kissed Pilbara of Australia’s north west.’ He added: ‘Spinifex Gum has been a project of a lifetime because its brought me deeper into this country – its landscape and its politics – and into music I would never have discovered had it not been for the wonderfully diverse collection of people who have made it all possible. Most of all, it’s given me the opportunity to compose for and collaborate with the young, bright, powerful women of Marliya. That’s been a true joy. To bring this show to my home city of Melbourne and perform it in the extraordinary acoustic space of Melbourne Recital Centre is going to be a real treat.

  • Migration of Mexicans to Australia
    Migration of Mexicans to Australia MONICA LAURA VAZQUEZ MAGGIO Thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy School of Social Sciences, University of New South Wales September 2013 Acknowledgements I would like to express my profound gratitude to a number of people who provided me with invaluable support throughout this entire PhD journey. I have been privileged to have two marvellous and supportive PhD supervisors. I am immensely grateful to my Social Sciences supervisor, Dr. Alan Morris, who guided me with his constant encouragement, valuable advice and enormous generosity. As a fresh new PhD student, full of excitement on my first days after I arrived in Australia, I remember encountering a recently graduated PhD student who, after I told her that my supervisor was Alan Morris, assured me I was in good hands. At that time, I had no idea of the magnitude of what she meant. Alan has truly gone above and beyond the role of a supervisor to guide me so brilliantly through this doctorate. He gracefully accepted the challenge of leading me in an entirely new discipline, as well as through the very challenging process of writing in a second language. Despite his vast commitments and enormous workload, Alan read my various manuscripts many times. I am also deeply thankful to my Economics supervisor, Dr. Peter Kriesler, for whom without his warm welcome, I would have not come to this country. I am extremely indebted to Peter for having put his trust in me before arriving in Australia and for giving me the opportunity to be part of this University.
