  • The Globalization of K-Pop: the Interplay of External and Internal Forces
    THE GLOBALIZATION OF K-POP: THE INTERPLAY OF EXTERNAL AND INTERNAL FORCES Master Thesis presented by Hiu Yan Kong Furtwangen University MBA WS14/16 Matriculation Number 249536 May, 2016 Sworn Statement I hereby solemnly declare on my oath that the work presented has been carried out by me alone without any form of illicit assistance. All sources used have been fully quoted. (Signature, Date) Abstract This thesis aims to provide a comprehensive and systematic analysis about the growing popularity of Korean pop music (K-pop) worldwide in recent years. On one hand, the international expansion of K-pop can be understood as a result of the strategic planning and business execution that are created and carried out by the entertainment agencies. On the other hand, external circumstances such as the rise of social media also create a wide array of opportunities for K-pop to broaden its global appeal. The research explores the ways how the interplay between external circumstances and organizational strategies has jointly contributed to the global circulation of K-pop. The research starts with providing a general descriptive overview of K-pop. Following that, quantitative methods are applied to measure and assess the international recognition and global spread of K-pop. Next, a systematic approach is used to identify and analyze factors and forces that have important influences and implications on K-pop’s globalization. The analysis is carried out based on three levels of business environment which are macro, operating, and internal level. PEST analysis is applied to identify critical macro-environmental factors including political, economic, socio-cultural, and technological.

  • Cas Li 306 Venetian Landscapes: a Contemporary Grand Tour
    CAS LI 306 VENETIAN LANDSCAPES: A CONTEMPORARY GRAND TOUR Co-taught by Prof. Elisabetta Convento and Prof. Laura Lenci Office Hours: Two hours per week (TBD) or by appointment Office: BU Padua, Via Dimesse 5 – 35122 Padova (Italy) E-mail: Phone: Office (+39) 049 650303 Class Meets: 2 hours, four times a week (Summer), Bu Padua Academic Center Credits: 4 Hub Units: 1+1 (GCI and OSC) Course description There are places that inspire visitors and artists. The morphological aspects of the territory; the colors; the human trace on the physical territory; the history, culture and traditions are but some of the elements of a landscape fascination. The Veneto region, where Padua always played and still plays a lively cultural role, is particularly rich of suggestions and throughout the centuries inspired artists, musicians, writers. Johann W. Goethe, Lord Byron or Henry James wrote beautiful memories of their Italian journey and left us extraordinary depictions of cities like Padua, Venice and Verona surrounded by hills, mountains, lagoon, but also rural landscapes. Following the path of these famous travelers, the course aims to offer students the opportunity to discover the Veneto region through literary and cultural experiences. By means of on-site lessons, readings and field trips, students are able to recognize the local identity that deepens its roots into the landscape (natural and anthropic), culture (progress and tradition), language (Italian and dialect), history and society. During the course, students will read and discuss extracts from works by Luigi Meneghello, Mario Rigoni Stern, Dino Buzzati or Giovanni Comisso to only mention some, and visit places such as the Dolomites, the Veneto countryside, or cities like Padova, Treviso, Vicenza or Venezia.

  • From Jay-Z to Dead Prez: Examining Representations of Black
    JBSXXX10.1177/0021934714528953Journal of Black StudiesBelle 528953research-article2014 Article Journal of Black Studies 2014, Vol. 45(4) 287 –300 From Jay-Z to Dead © The Author(s) 2014 Reprints and permissions: Prez: Examining sagepub.com/journalsPermissions.nav DOI: 10.1177/0021934714528953 Representations of jbs.sagepub.com Black Masculinity in Mainstream Versus Underground Hip-Hop Music Crystal Belle1 Abstract The evolution of hip-hop music and culture has impacted the visibility of Black men and the Black male body. As hip-hop continues to become commercially viable, performances of Black masculinities can be easily found on magazine covers, television shows, and popular websites. How do these representations affect the collective consciousness of Black men, while helping to construct a particular brand of masculinity that plays into the White imagination? This theoretical article explores how representations of Black masculinity vary in underground versus mainstream hip-hop, stemming directly from White patriarchal ideals of manhood. Conceptual and theoretical analyses of songs from the likes of Jay-Z and Dead Prez and Imani Perry’s Prophets of the Hood help provide an understanding of the parallels between hip-hop performances/identities and Black masculinities.

  • Roberto Andò" Di Marco Olivieri (Edizioni Kaplan)
    Roberto Ando` Biografia La sua formazione ha radici nella letteratura (centrale il suo rapporto d’amicizia con Leonardo Sciascia - suo mentore - che lo spinge a scrivere, introducendolo giovanissimo nel mondo delle collaborazioni giornalistiche) e nel cinema, dove più tardi compirà il suo apprendistato facendo da assistente a Francesco Rosi (che considera il suo maestro), Giacomo Battiato, Federico Fellini (E la nave va), Michael Cimino (Il Siciliano), Francis Ford Coppola (Il Padrino parte III). Il suo esordio nella regia avviene però a teatro, nel 1986, con uno spettacolo tratto da un testo inedito affidatogli da Italo Calvino, La foresta-radice- labirinto, una favola filosofica, messa in scena con i bozzetti di Renato Guttuso e la musica di Francesco Pennisi. Successivamente si dedica al documentario con Memory- Loss (1994), dedicato a Robert Wilson, e Per Webern – Vivere è difendere una forma (1996), entrambi presentati alla Mostra del cinema di Venezia. Negli anni dal 1990 al 1995 ricopre il ruolo di direttore artistico delle Orestiadi di Gibellina e dal 1995 al 2000 del Festival di Palermo sul novecento. Nel 1995 presenta, sempre alla Mostra del cinema di Venezia, il suo primo lungometraggio Diario senza date. Ambientato a Palermo, il film, inizialmente commissionato da Rai Tre come un reportage, mescola saggio, documentario e finzione, ricercando nelle confessioni di personaggi veri e d’invenzione la chiave per penetrare la città e i suoi misteri. Accanto al protagonista Bruno Ganz e agli attori Lorenza Indovina, Moni Ovadia, Franco Scaldati, compaiono nel film gli scrittori Leonardo Sciascia, Vincenzo Consolo, Michele Perriera e Gianni Riotta, e i magistrati Roberto Scarpinato, Erminio Amelio, Ignazio De Francisci.

  • Metric Ambiguity and Flow in Rap Music: a Corpus-Assisted Study of Outkast’S “Mainstream” (1996)
    Metric Ambiguity and Flow in Rap Music: A Corpus-Assisted Study of Outkast’s “Mainstream” (1996) MITCHELL OHRINER[1] University of Denver ABSTRACT: Recent years have seen the rise of musical corpus studies, primarily detailing harmonic tendencies of tonal music. This article extends this scholarship by addressing a new genre (rap music) and a new parameter of focus (rhythm). More specifically, I use corpus methods to investigate the relation between metric ambivalence in the instrumental parts of a rap track (i.e., the beat) and an emcee’s rap delivery (i.e., the flow). Unlike virtually every other rap track, the instrumental tracks of Outkast’s “Mainstream” (1996) simultaneously afford hearing both a four-beat and a three-beat metric cycle. Because three-beat durations between rhymes, phrase endings, and reiterated rhythmic patterns are rare in rap music, an abundance of them within a verse of “Mainstream” suggests that an emcee highlights the three-beat cycle, especially if that emcee is not prone to such durations more generally. Through the construction of three corpora, one representative of the genre as a whole, and two that are artist specific, I show how the emcee T-Mo Goodie’s expressive practice highlights the rare three-beat affordances of the track. Submitted 2015 July 15; accepted 2015 December 15. KEYWORDS: corpus studies, rap music, flow, T-Mo Goodie, Outkast THIS article uses methods of corpus studies to address questions of creative practice in rap music, specifically how the material of the rapping voice—what emcees, hip-hop heads, and scholars call “the flow”—relates to the material of the previously recorded instrumental tracks collectively known as the beat.

Dr. Kelton Edmonds was my advisor for this project and I appreciate him helping me to study hip- hop. Dr. Susan Jasko was my advisor at California University of Pennsylvania since 2005 and encouraged me to stay in the Honors Program. Dr. Drew McGukin had the initiative to bring me to the Honors Program in the first place. I wanted to acknowledge everybody in the Honors Department (Dr. Ed Chute, Dr. Erin Mountz, Mrs. Kim Orslene, and Dr. Don Lawson). Doing a Red Hot Chili Peppers project in 2008 for Mr. Max Gonano was also very important.
