  • PERFORMED IDENTITIES: HEAVY METAL MUSICIANS BETWEEN 1984 and 1991 Bradley C. Klypchak a Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate
    PERFORMED IDENTITIES: HEAVY METAL MUSICIANS BETWEEN 1984 AND 1991 Bradley C. Klypchak A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY May 2007 Committee: Dr. Jeffrey A. Brown, Advisor Dr. John Makay Graduate Faculty Representative Dr. Ron E. Shields Dr. Don McQuarie © 2007 Bradley C. Klypchak All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Dr. Jeffrey A. Brown, Advisor Between 1984 and 1991, heavy metal became one of the most publicly popular and commercially successful rock music subgenres. The focus of this dissertation is to explore the following research questions: How did the subculture of heavy metal music between 1984 and 1991 evolve and what meanings can be derived from this ongoing process? How did the contextual circumstances surrounding heavy metal music during this period impact the performative choices exhibited by artists, and from a position of retrospection, what lasting significance does this particular era of heavy metal merit today? A textual analysis of metal- related materials fostered the development of themes relating to the selective choices made and performances enacted by metal artists. These themes were then considered in terms of gender, sexuality, race, and age constructions as well as the ongoing negotiations of the metal artist within multiple performative realms. Occurring at the juncture of art and commerce, heavy metal music is a purposeful construction. Metal musicians made performative choices for serving particular aims, be it fame, wealth, or art. These same individuals worked within a greater system of influence. Metal bands were the contracted employees of record labels whose own corporate aims needed to be recognized.

  • ACTS: the Divine Power Unleashed
    Study Notes ACTS: The Divine Power Unleashed The Most Dangerous Place to Be (Acts 28:17-31) October 19, 2014 17 After three days he called together the local leaders of the Jews, and when they had gathered, he said to them, "Brothers, though I had done nothing against our people or the customs of our fathers, yet I was delivered as a prisoner from Jerusalem into the hands of the Romans. 18 When they had examined me, they wished to set me at liberty, because there was no reason for the death penalty in my case. 19 But because the Jews objected, I was compelled to appeal to Caesar--though I had no charge to bring against my nation. 20 For this reason, therefore, I have asked to see you and speak with you, since it is because of the hope of Israel that I am wearing this chain." 21 And they said to him, "We have received no letters from Judea about you, and none of the brothers coming here has reported or spoken any evil about you. 22 But we desire to hear from you what your views are, for with regard to this sect we know that everywhere it is spoken against." 23 When they had appointed a day for him, they came to him at his lodging in greater numbers. From morning till evening he expounded to them, testifying to the kingdom of God and trying to convince them about Jesus both from the Law of Moses and from the Prophets. 24 And some were convinced by what he said, but others disbelieved.

    English Press “These sisters have transformed the Piano Duo” THE NEW YORK TIMES “Whether Mozart or Stravinsky, their musical line always sounds as if its being woven for the very first time... But the illusion of improvisation is the genius of their performances. In all their recordings there is a deceptive sprezzatura that is born of throwing the preparation to the winds and hanging onto each each others ears.” THE TIMES “Rarely has the weft and warp of the score been so realized, its question-and-answer dialogue with such perfect (and natural) even-handedness.” GRAMOPHONE “The best piano duet in front of an audience today.” NEW YORK TIMES “The French sisters who over 20 years have revolutionized music for two pianos and four hands.” CLASSICAL CD “Katia and Marielle Labeque have led the field in more than 20 years of classical and jazz piano duo playing.” PIANIST “Labeque sisters, the most visible piano duo on the planet.” NEWSDAY “The most celebrated of piano duos.” CLASSIC FM “If duo pianists are required, who else but the Labeque sisters, Katia and Marielle.” THE NEW YORK SUN “So much glamour and charm surrounds the Labeque sisters, it’s hard not to drown in misty-eyed admiration.” HARPERS & QUEEN “They performance was a knockout! Katia and Marielle Labeque, the mop-maned French sisters who have made a specially of the repertoir for back-to-back pianos, combining familiar fare with a dazzling rarity, delivered it all with a welcome blend of theatricality and affection.” SAN FRANCISCO CHRONICLE “There were sophisticated and mischievcus tributes to Mozart and to Satie.

In spite of the global economic crisis and slowdown in world trade, the future of international business is still bright. Now more than ever, you will likely work in the global economy. You might be working abroad or working in your home country for either a local multinational corporation or for a foreign-based company that is enter- ing your market. Whatever your future brings, it will be important for you to understand how to negotiate foreign languages and culture. It is one thing to study a language in school, but you also need to get used to different countries and cultures as well. Cultural is broad, and language is just one aspect. BYU is a great place to study, because over 70 percent of our students speak a second language and many have lived abroad for a year or more. In your classes, you will be able to interact with students from other countries but also with U.S. students with broad international experience. In any given class, you will have classmates with international experience in multiple countries in all regions of the world. These students have gained a knowledge of and love for the people, language, and culture of places where they have lived.

  • 14 European Far-Right Music and Its Enemies Anton Shekhovtsov
    14 European Far-Right Music and Its Enemies Anton Shekhovtsov I’m patriotic, I’m racialistic, My views are clear and so simplistic (English Rose, 2007b) In a self-conducted interview that appeared in his manifesto, Norwegian would-be right-wing terrorist and killer Anders Behring Breivik, under the pen name Andrew Berwick, argued that specifi c music helps sustain ‘high morale and motivation’ of ‘self-fi nanced and self-indoctrinated single in- dividual attack cells’ (2011, p. 856). He went on to list several ‘motiva- tional music tracks’ he particularly liked. Breivik described one of these tracks, ‘Lux Æterna’, by Clint Mansell, which was featured in the trailer for Peter Jackson’s The Lord of the Rings : The Two Towers , as ‘very inspir- ing’ and as invoking ‘a type of passionate rage within you’ (2011, p. 858). On 22 July 2011, ‘Lux Æterna’ supposedly played in his iPod while he was killing members of the Workers’ Youth League of the Norwegian Labour Party on the island of Utøya (Gysin, Sears and Greenhill, 2011). Another artist favoured by Breivik in his manifesto is Saga, ‘a courageous, Swedish, female nationalist-oriented musician who creates pop-music with patriotic texts’ (2011, p. 856). Saga soared to the heights of right-wing fame in 2000, when she released three volumes of My Tribute to Skrewdriver on the Swedish right-wing label Midgård Records (2000a). Her three-volume album featured cover versions of Skrewdriver, a model White Power band, whose late leader, Ian Stuart Donaldson, founded the Blood & Honour (B&H) music promotion network in 1987.

  • Structural Analysis of Rock Canyon Near Provo, Utah
    Structural Analysis of Rock Canyon near Provo, Utah LAURA C. WALD, BART J. KOWALLIS, and RONALD A. HARRIS Department of Geological Sciences, Brigham Young University, Provo, Utah 84604 Key words: Utah, structure, Rock Canyon, thrust fault, folding, structural model ABSTRACT A detailed structural study of Rock Canyon (near Provo, Utah) provides insight into Wasatch Range tecton- ics and fold-thrust belt kinematics. Excellent exposures along theE-W trending canyon allow the use of digital photography in conjunction with traditional field methods for a thorough analysis of Rock Canyon’s structural fea- tures. Detailed photomontages and geometric and kinematic analyses of some structural features help to pinpoint deformation mechanisms active during the canyon’s tectonic history. Largescale images and these structural data are synthesized in a balanced cross section, which is used to reconstruct the structural evolution of this portion of the range. Projection of surficial features into the subsurface produces geometrical relationships that correlate well with a fault-bend fold model involving one or more subsurface imbrications. Kinematic data (e.g. slickenlines, fractures, fold axes) indicate that the maximum stress direction during formation of the fault-bend fold trended at approximately 120°. Following initial thrusting, uplift and development of a thrust splay produced by duplexing may have caused a shift in local stresses in the forelimb of the Rock Canyon anticline leading to late-stage normal faulting during Sevier compression. These normal faults may have activated deformed zones previously caused by Sevier folding, and reactivated early-stage decollements found in the folded weak shale units and shaley limestones. Movement on most of these normal faults roughly parallels stress directions found during initial thrusting indicating that these extensional features may be coeval with thrusting.
