What's So Deviant About Deviantart Spontaneous Wanderers in the Digital Metropolis: A Case Study of the New Literacy Practices of Youth Artists Learning on a Social Media Platform. by Brian Jones A Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy Approved July 2012 by the Graduate Supervisory Committee: Mary Stokrocki, Chair Barbara Guzzetti Bernard Young ARIZONA STATE UNIVERSITY December 2012 ABSTRACT This qualitative case study of 12, eighteen to twenty-four-year-olds from seven countries provided insight into the learning practices on an art-centered, social media platform. The study addressed two guiding questions; (a) what art related skills, knowledge, and dispositions do community members acquire using a social media platform? (b), What new literacy practices, e.g., the use of new technologies and an ethos of participation, collective intelligence, collaboration, dispersion of abundant resources, and sharing (Knobel & Lankshear, 2007), do members use in acquiring of art-related skills, concepts, knowledge, and dispositions? Data included interviews, online documents, artwork, screen capture of online content, threaded online discussions, and a questionnaire. Drawing on theory and research from both new literacies and art education, the study identified five practices related to learning in the visual arts: (a) practicing as professional artists; (b) engaging in discovery based search strategies for viewing and collecting member produced content; (c) learning by observational strategies; (d) giving constructive criticism and feedback; (e) making learning resources. The study presents suggestions for teachers interested in empowering instruction with new social media technologies. i DEDICATION To Pop. & Toffee I ache into the absence . ii ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I must thank those who's love and understanding sustained me throughout this journey.

    artstall TORONTO Submission 80988 executive summary ArtStall Toronto is a unique creative place-making project that provides durable, accessible standardized public toilets that are also aesthetically pleasing, decorated in collaboration with local artists to enhance the character of Toronto’s streets, while addressing perceived problems with both public art and public toilets. On a recent CBC broadcast, a pundit argued that Toronto needs a “Percent for Public Toilets” program 10% ADMIN more than one collecting a “Percent for Public 80% Art.” He complained that the city is awash with sculpture and suggested that Toronto should instead CAPITAL spend developer’s contributions for streetscape 10% improvements on tackling the city’s glaring lack of MAINTENANCE public toilets. But why can’t we combine the two? Toronto’s Percent for Public Art policy encourages both stand-alone artistic works and the artistic treatment of functional civic infrastructure. PERCENT FOR PUBLIC ART PROGRAM 10% ADMIN 65% MAINTENANCE Enter ArtStall Toronto. This program would use 25% ENDOWMENT percent for public art funds to address Toronto’s CAPITAL ongoing lack of public washroom facilities, improving Subway access to the city for residents and tourists. By Streetcar Route applying locally-designed artistic skins to the exteriors of the “Portland Loo” – a recently developed Intersection Pedestrian Volume (Persons) public toilet winning praise for its indestructibility, 7862-10000 ease of maintenance and low cost – Toronto can take 10000-15000 a step toward creating more inclusive, beautiful and dignified streets. 15000-20000 PERCENT FOR 20000-24677 Both public art and public toilets can be controversial. However, merging the two might actually help to ARTSTALL address concerns with both.

Environmental Cultures. Bloomsbury Collections. Web. 25 Sep. 2021. <http:// dx.doi.org/10.5040/9781474219730.ch-007>.

You may share this work for non-commercial purposes only, provided you give attribution to the copyright holder and the publisher, and provide a link to the Creative Commons licence. 6 Icons of Survival: Metahumanism as Planetary Defense In which I argue that superhero comics, the most maligned of nerd genres, theorize the transformation of ethics and politics necessary to the project of planetary defense. The figure of the “metahuman,” the human with superpowers and purpose, embodies the transfigured nerd whose defects—intellect, swarm-behavior, abnormality, flux, and love of machines—become virtues of survival in the twenty-first century. The conflict among capitalism, fascism, and communism, which drove the Cold War and its immediate aftermath, also drove the Golden and Silver Ages of Comics. In the era of planetary emergency, these forces reconfigure themselves as different versions of world-destruction. The metahuman also signifies going “beyond” these economic and political systems into orders that preserve democracy without destroying the biosphere. Therefore, the styles of metahuman figuration represent an appeal to tradition and a technique of transformation. I call these strategies the iconic style and metamorphic style. The iconic style, more typical of DC Comics, makes the hero an icon of virtue, and metahuman powers manifest as visible signs: the “S” of Superman, the tiara and golden lasso of Wonder Woman.

While it is obvious. that these comic books can be used in the classroom as a source of reading material, it is tot so obvious that these comic books, with great economy, simplicity, and narrative density, can be used to further introduce novice readers to the techniques found in narrative and to the terms employed in the study and discussion of a narrative. The output of the Marvel Conics Group in particular is literate, is both narratively and pbSlosophically sophisticated, and is ethically and morally responsible. Some of the narrative tecbntques found in the stories, such as the Spider-Man episodes, include foreshadowing, a dramatic fiction narrator, flashback, irony, symbolism, metaphor, Biblical and historical allusions, and mythological allusions.4MKM1 4 4 *********************************************************************** * Reproductions supplied by EDRS are the best that can be made * * from the original document. * *********************************************************************** ) U SOEPANTMENTO, HEALD..

    ‘Yes, But What Have You Done for Me Lately?’: Intersections of Intellectual Property, Work-for-Hire, and The Struggle of the Creative Precariat in the American Comic Book Industry © 2019 By Ora Charles McWilliams Submitted to the graduate degree program in American Studies and the Graduate Faculty of the University of Kansas in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. Co-Chair: Ben Chappell Co-Chair: Elizabeth Esch Henry Bial Germaine Halegoua Joo Ok Kim Date Defended: 10 May, 2019 ii The dissertation committee for Ora Charles McWilliams certifies that this is the approved version of the following dissertation: ‘Yes, But What Have You Done for Me Lately?’: Intersections of Intellectual Property, Work-for-Hire, and The Struggle of the Creative Precariat in the American Comic Book Industry Co-Chair: Ben Chappell Co-Chair: Elizabeth Esch Date Approved: 24 May 2019 iii Abstract The comic book industry has significant challenges with intellectual property rights. Comic books have rarely been treated as a serious art form or cultural phenomenon. It used to be that creating a comic book would be considered shameful or something done only as side work. Beginning in the 1990s, some comic creators were able to leverage enough cultural capital to influence more media. In the post-9/11 world, generic elements of superheroes began to resonate with audiences; superheroes fight against injustices and are able to confront the evils in today’s America. This has created a billion dollar, Oscar-award-winning industry of superhero movies, as well as allowed created comic book careers for artists and writers.

Perinteisen animaation periaatteet, kuten ajoitus ja liikkeen välistys, pätevät pelianimaa- tiossa samalla tavalla kuin elokuva-animaatiossakin. Pelien tekniset rajoitukset ja interaktiivisuus asettavat kuiten- kin lisähaasteita animaatioiden toteuttamiseen tavalla, joka sekä tukee pelimekaniikkaa että on visuaalisesti kiin- nostava. Vetoava hahmoanimaatio on erityisen tärkeää taistelupeligenressä. Varhaiset taistelupelit 1990–luvun alusta käyt- tivät matalaresoluutioista bittikarttagrafiikkaa ja niissä oli alhainen määrä animaatiokehyksiä, mutta nykyään pelien standardit grafiikan ja animaation suhteen ovat korkealla. Viime vuosina monet pelinkehittäjät ovat siirtyneet käyttämään 2d-grafiikan sijasta 3d-grafiikkaa, koska 3d-animaation tuottaminen on monella tavalla joustavampaa. Perinteiselle 2d-grafiikalle on kuitenkin edelleen kysyntää, sillä käsin piirretyn animaation ainutlaatuista ulkoasua ei voi täysin korvata
