  • This Ain't a Scene, It's a Buzzer Race.Pdf
    This Ain’t a Scene, It’s a Buzzer Race Sadboys are temporary. Sad trumpets are forever. Written by Brian Luong Tossups: 1. This band’s extensive and impressive merchandise catalogue can be attributed to guitarist Nick Steinhardt’s side occupation as a graphic designer. A live EP following this band’s sophomore studio album was titled Live on BBC Radio 1 and featured vocals from Jordan Dreyer of La Dispute. It’s not Red Hot Chili Peppers, but this band’s distinct asterisk-shaped logo was meant to evoke converging road markings leading to a sunset, and was first used in promotional artwork for the band’s second album, with that album’s initials “PTSBBAM” arranged in the negative spaces of the logo. This band’s 2016 single “Palm Dreams” was described by their frontman as a song about his inability to ask his mother about why she moved to California after she passed. The album from which that single is taken, as a whole, deals with themes of frontman Jeremy Bolm grieving the loss of his mother due to cancer. For 10 points, give the name of this Los Angeles-based post-hardcore band, which you may know from the albums Parting the Sea Between Brightness and Me and Stage Four. ANSWER: Touché Amoré 2.

    HUMANITIES DILIMAN (JULY-DECEMBER 2013) 10:2, 85-105 T.R. Quiling Jr. Projecting Homes: Domestic Spaces in Three Filipino Films Tito R. Quiling Jr. University of the Philippines Diliman ABSTRACT The house is a fundamental space for a character’s consciousness, and this structure is a familiar image in Filipino films. This particular space as a setting in which the narrative and the characters are able to move in, is essential. This paper analyzes the influence of domestic spaces and the characteristics of home, which correspond to the characters’ consciousness and the narrative. These are presented in the selected films: Oro, Plata, Mata (1982) by Peque Gallaga, “Hellow, Soldier,” the second episode in Lino Brocka’s Tatlo, Dalawa, Isa (1975), and Kisapmata (1981) by Mike De Leon. The method for assessment consists of three parts: (1) the background in which the films are set, (2) the influence of the house using Gaston Bachelard’s notion of the house in The Poetics of Space (1994) as a framework, (3) and the behavior of the characters as portrayed in the films. The significance of domestic spaces to a character’s experience is illustrated in the selected texts. Keywords: Philippine cinema, domestic space, house, film, architecture INTRODUCTION Viewers go to movie theaters for entertainment, to distract themselves from the troubled tones of daily life. For the past 115 years, Filipinos have been going to the movies, fascinated by the lifelike images onscreen (Quirino 10). Alternatively, cinema lends itself to the formation of reality. Film productions are derived from everyday situations, which are either highlighted by their simplicity or greatly dramatized through the convincing performances of the actors.
