Reprinted from http://www.glbtq.com Richard Hatch, winner of In 2000, when self-described "fat naked fag" Richard Hatch emerged as the first- the Survivor reality show season winning contestant on the phenomenally popular network reality television in 2000. show Survivor, he credited his survival success in large part to his homosexuality. Courtesy Richard Hatch. According to Hatch, growing up gay, being part of a minority community--and thus subject to scrutiny by others--inspired him to be both introspective and egocentric. These dual poles of introspection and egocentrism are, in fact, key elements in understanding the important roles gay men and lesbians play within the confines of reality television shows, even as they present interpretive quandaries for hetero- and homosexual viewers alike. In a typical reality television show, particularly one with game-show trappings such as CBS's Survivor and Big Brother, or ABC's The Mole, cast members as well as viewers regard introspection as suspicious behavior. Surely, the viewers surmise, something is being hatched under that quiet façade, and usually this supposition is proved correct. For these shows' gay and lesbian participants, however, the conflation of introspection with cunning and plotting too easily becomes connected to the unfortunate stereotype that gay men and lesbians are inherently crafty, conniving, and untrustworthy. Even in ostensibly less competitive shows such as Bravo's Boy Meets Boy, Fox's Playing It Straight, and even MTV's "docusoap"--Sam Brenton and Reuben Cohen's neologism for a television show that seamlessly combines elements of documentary realism with soap opera-style plotting--The Real World, introspection is often seen as a negative attribute, indicating moodiness, insecurity, or simmering hostility.

As for my favorite topping, just yesterday I was rereading "Ash Wednesday" by T.S.

And God said Shall these bones live? shall these Bones live? And that which had been contained In the bones (which were already dry) said chirping: Because of the goodness of this Lady And because of her loveliness, and because She honours the Virgin in meditation, We shine with brightness. And I who am here dissembled Proffer my deeds to oblivion, and my love To the posterity of the desert and the fruit of the gourd.

  • 1 Ervin Jarek 2017 PHD.Pdf
    ii © Copyright by Jarek Paul Ervin All Rights Reserved May 2017 iii ABSTRACT My dissertation takes a speculative cue from the reception of 1970s New York punk, which is typically treated as both rule – the symbolic site of origin – and exception – a protean moment before the crystallization of punk proper. For this reason, artists such as Velvet Underground, Patti Smith, the Ramones, and Blondie are today afforded the simultaneous status of originators, interlopers, innovators, and successors. This has led both to the genre’s canonicity in the music world and its general neglect within scholarship. I argue that punk ought to be understood less as a set of stylistic precepts (ones that could be originated and then developed), than as a set of philosophical claims about the character of rock music in the 1970s. Punk artists such as Patti Smith, Jayne County, and the Ramones developed an aesthetic theory through sound. This was an act of accounting, which foregrounded the role of historical memory and recast a mode of reflexive imagination as musical practice. At times mournful, at times optimistic about the possibility of reconciliation, punk was a restorative aesthetics, an attempt to forge a new path on memories of rock’s past. My first chapter looks at the relationship between early punk and rock music, its ostensible music parent. Through close readings of writing by important punk critics including Greil Marcus, Lester Bangs, and Ellen Willis – as well as analyses of songs by the Velvet Underground and Suicide – I argue that a historical materialist approach offers a new in-road to old debates about punk’s progressive/regressive musical character.

    UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA Los Angeles Coming Out of the Television LGBT-themed Made-for-Television Movies as Critical Media Pedagogy Submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Philosophy in Education by David Randolph Craig 2014 © Copyright by David Craig 2014 ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION Coming Out of the Television LGBT-themed Made-for Television Movies as Critical Media Pedagogy David Randolph Craig Doctor of Philosophy in Education University of California, Los Angeles, 2014 Professor Douglas M. Kellner, Chair Since the early 1970s, an important but under-examined subgenre of Made-for-Television Movies have foregrounded critical LGBT concerns, including coming out, parental custody, HIV/AIDS, gays in the military, and hate crimes or featured affirmative LGBT representations. These programs, often highly-rated and critically-acclaimed, were nonetheless sites of political contestation from social conservatives and LGBT activists. Through the lenses of critical media pedagogy, critical cultural studies, and critical media industries studies, this dissertation conducts a critical cultural history of LGBT TV movies. This history includes critical case studies of twenty seminal LGBT programs featuring original interviews with the producers, executives, and writers responsible for their pedagogical design. The evidence reflects how these programs helped frame these concerns, educate audiences, and advocate on behalf of the LGBT community. This research further suggests how progressive pedagogues and media

Potratz November 2007 2 This thesis titled WHEN IS REALITY REAL?: YOUTH PERCEPTIONS OF MTV REALITY PROGRAMS by RACHEL M. POTRATZ has been approved for the School of Telecommunications and the Scripps College of Communication by Norma Pecora Professor, School of Telecommunications Gregory J. Shepherd Dean, Scripps College of Communication 3 Abstract POTRATZ, RACHEL M., M.A., November 2007, School of Telecommunications WHEN IS REALITY REAL?: YOUTH PERCEPTIONS OF MTV REALITY PROGRAMS (125 p). Director of Thesis: Norma Pecora This thesis examines how college freshmen relate to the personalities and content on MTV reality programs. Drawing from current theories about how viewers relate to television such as realism perceptions, identification, wishful identification, and parasocial interaction, this project looks takes a qualitative approach to understanding the particular relationships that exist between young viewers and the content and young casts of MTV reality programs. Eight college freshmen at a Midwestern university were interviewed about their perceptions of MTV reality programs, particularly Real World, Laguna Beach and The Hills. Additionally, a survey of 78 students was conducted in an introductory telecommunications course. It was found that judgments about the realism were based primarily on the students’ use of comparisons with their own lives and experiences. Additionally, knowledge of production processes played a role in realism perceptions. It was also found that students engaged in parasocial interaction and used reality television to learn about the world.

    Mike Heath Michael Layne Heath January 6, 2019 San Francisco, CA. 0:00:00 to 1:00:54 ________________________________________________________________________ 0:00:00 Davis: Today is January 6th, 2019. My name is John Davis. I’m the Performing Arts Metadata Archivist at the University of Maryland. Today, I’m speaking with Michael Heath. Heath: Shall I introduce myself? Davis: Yes, please. Heath: All right. Hello. My name is Michael Layne Heath. I am a writer, poet, musician, citizen journalist, and in a previous lifetime, was a minor character in the ensuing drama of the Washington D.C. alternative music community of the ‘70s and ‘80s. Davis: All right. Well done. So just getting started, you can tell from the first issue of Vintage Violence you have already a pretty deep fascination with rock and roll, and the kind of rock and roll that wasn’t readily listenable, if you will. I don’t know how much you were hearing... Heath: Or available. Or accessible. Davis: Right. So it kind of makes sense to me that something like punk would also wind up on your radar. But can you tell me a bit about how you got into punk? Heath: Well, I was always an inquisitive kid as far as culture and especially music, and was very much into—thirsty for new experiences aesthetically. You couldn't hear a lot of the stuff that I was interested in, that I had read about in magazines, on the radio in the mid-‘70s, although there was an excellent show on WINX called Heavy Metal Thunder.
