  • The Metanarrative Paradigm
    The Metanarrative Paradigm Adrian M. Nissen, B.A. (hons.) This thesis is submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy of Murdoch University, 2016. i Copyright notice I declare that this thesis is my own account of my research and contains as its main content work which has not previously been submitted for a degree at any tertiary education institution. .................................... Adrian M. Nissen ii Abstract The original contribution of this thesis is an examination of how the concept of metanarrative can be used to illuminate shifts in popular thought in the Information Age. There is disagreement over what Information Age paradigms signify, and whether a metanarrative can exist. The postmodern dismissal of metanarrative requires re-examination in the face of understandings that have accompanied contemporary technological advancements. Information technology will be used in this study to explain the movement in globalised culture towards metanarrative understandings as technology is the most broadly visible indicator of human advancement. Branching out from a core literature of media and cultural theorists and internet researchers, I also employ analogous understandings of such a phenomenon from tangential theory including philosophy, psychology and natural science. Observations have been made of a pattern of increased self-referral over recent decades occurring in various disciplines, indicating shifts in the contextualisation of understandings. Our paradigms are becoming more self- conscious as narratives. As humankind’s ideas and capacity to harness understandings of the world continue to develop, we are increasingly engaging with further levels of self-awareness that provide us with the perspective needed for epistemological shifts. This thesis explores the way in which our advancement brings us closer to a meta-textual awareness.

PITCH Going home was never an option for single mother Lena Mahikan (Cara Gee). But when her 13-year-old, Peeka (Shay Eyre) overdoses in the streets of Toronto, she is forced to return home to her estranged mother and face a life-long legacy of shame and resentment. Empire of Dirt is a story about second chances and summoning the power of family to soothe the pain of cyclical damage. SHORT SYNOPSIS As in many Native families, Lena Mahikan (Cara Gee) grew up in the cycle of abuse. Her father, a residential school survivor, was an alcoholic until he killed himself when Lena was 10. Her mother, only 14 years her senior, turned to the slots and was consumed. By the time Lena was 15, she was pregnant and, before giving birth, was kicked to the curb by her mom. For 13 years Lena has been living, poverty stricken in Toronto, struggling to make ends meet, being chased by her own demons.

  • Fidlar Self Titled Album Download FIDLAR Download (MP3) Fourteen Slices of Insanely Catchy and Aptly Titled Punk Rock Tunes
    fidlar self titled album download FIDLAR Download (MP3) Fourteen slices of insanely catchy and aptly titled punk rock tunes. The debut album by FIDLAR, recorded and self-produced at the band’s home studio with mixing duties handled by Rob Schnapf (Elliot Smith, Beck, Guided By Voices) is fourteen slices of insanely catchy and aptly titled punk rock tunes. Track list: 1. Cheap Beer 2. Stoked And Broke 3. White On White 4. No Waves 5. Whore 6. Max Can't Surf 7. Black Out Stout 8. Wake Bake Skate 9. Gimme Something 10. 5 to 9 11, LDA 12. Paycheck 13. Wait For The Man 14. Cocaine 15. Awkward. * Praise for FIDLAR * "an electrifying, intensely fun album" 8/10 - NME. "With its Ramones-via-The Golden State garage punk, it's brilliantly noisy in all the best places ('White On White', 'Wait For The Man') and yet not afraid to tone down on occasion ('Gimme Something')." 9/10 - DIY. "The spirit of drunk adolescence, cramped kitchens and broken valuable endures on their frightfully fun debut." 4/5 - Q. Fidlar struggles to break free. “Almost Free” is the third studio album from Los Angeles punk band Fidlar; it released on Jan. 24. Band members Zac Carper, Elvis Kuehn, Max Kuehn and Brandon Schwartzel take some big risks to break free from their familiar punk identity. The band released its debut album in 2013, the self-titled “Fidlar.” It featured a raw, simplistic punk aesthetic inspired by bands like The Offspring, Black Lips and Dead Kennedys. Despite criticism that the record was lyrically and musically one dimensional, the band’s potential for writing a great punk song was clear, and people started to take notice.

Em um primeiro momento, traz algumas reflexões e perspectivas sobre os conflitos entre materialidade e cultura digital. Em seguida, discute o álbum de música em um sentido mais tradicional para pensar suas aproximações e distanciamentos com o álbum-aplicativo. Por fim, analisa Synthetica, apoiado em reflexões sobre cultura remix, a materialidade da música e remediação. Conclui-se que, mesmo na cibercultura, a música possui uma complexidade material, moldando novos protocolos de escuta no diálogo entre actantes humanos e não-humanos. Palavras-chave: materialidade; cultura digital; álbum-aplicativo; música; Synthetica. Abstract: SYNTHETICA: Reflections on the (im)materiality of music in app-albums – Using the app-album "Synthetica", launched in 2013 by Canadian band Metric, as a study object, this paper aims to investigate the relationship between material culture and music in cyberculture. Firstly, it brings some reflections and perspectives about the conflicts between materiality and digital culture. Secondly, it discusses the music album in a more traditional sense to highlight its similarities and differences with the app-album. Lastly, it analyzes Synthetica, anchored by thoughts on remix culture, the materiality of music and remediation.
