  • A Music Video Information Retrieval Approach to Artist Identification
    A Music Video Information Retrieval Approach to Artist Identification Alexander Schindler1;2 and Andreas Rauber1 1 Department of Software Technology and Interactive Systems Vienna University of Technology fschindler,[email protected] 2 Intelligent Vision Systems, AIT Austrian Institute of Technology, Vienna, Austria Abstract. We propose a cross-modal approach based on separate au- dio and image data-sets to identify the artist of a given music video. The identification process is based on an ensemble of two separate clas- sifiers. Audio content classification is based on audio features derived from the Million Song Dataset (MSD). Face recognition is based on Lo- cal Binary Patterns (LBP) using a training-set of artist portrait images. The two modalities are combined using bootstrap aggregation (Bagging). Different versions of classifiers for each modality are generated from sub- samples of their according training-data-sets. Predictions upon the final artist labels are based on weighted majority voting. We show that the visual information provided by music videos improves the precision of music artist identification tasks. 1 Introduction To demonstrate the opportunities of a Music Video Information Retrieval ap- proach, we address the problem of music artist identification - the task of iden- tifying the performing musician of a given track. Music Video Information Re- trieval (MVIR) constitutes a cross-modal approach to Music Information Re- trieval (MIR) problems. Music videos like their underlying audio recordings are pieces of art and are used to accompany or augment the musical track. The visual part adds a second semantic layer to the song which may correlate with the other layers or contradict.

Griffith Featuring interviews with: Edward Alwood Journalist and Historian Richard Dyer University of Warwick, UK John Erni University of New Hampshire Larry Gross Annenberg School for Communication, University of Pennsylvania Lisa Henderson University of Massachusetts – Amherst Marguerite Moritz University of Colorado at Boulder Charles Nero Bates College Sasha Torres Johns Hopkins University Media Education Foundation © MEF 1998 2 INTRODUCTION Montage of Media clips [Unlabeled media] Why am I a homosexual? [Unlabeled media] I’m a homosexual. [TV: Ellen] I’m gay. [TV: The Simpsons] You know me Marge. I like my beer cold, my TV loud, and my homosexuals flaming. NARRATOR: Most of us grow up not knowing any openly lesbian, gay, or bisexual people. But television offers us a rich panoply of characters for understanding the world. So what images of gay life does television offer? What is possible in a commercial medium that demands high audience ratings to maximize advertising revenues? This program is about how gays, lesbians, and bisexuals have been written into a straight television world, and how gay audiences have made room for themselves within it. 3 THE EARLY YEARS – Seen and Not Heard NARRATOR: The 1960’s were a time of political ferment. The movements for civil rights, women’s liberation, and the end of the Vietnam War were profoundly disruptive to a society emerging from the seeming consensus of the late 1950’s.

  • Masculinity in Emo Music a Thesis Submitted to the Faculty of Arts and Social Science in Candi
    CARLETON UNIVERSITY FLUID BODIES: MASCULINITY IN EMO MUSIC A THESIS SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF ARTS AND SOCIAL SCIENCE IN CANDIDACY FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF ARTS DEPARTMENT OF MUSIC BY RYAN MACK OTTAWA, ONTARIO MAY 2014 ABSTRACT Emo is a genre of music that typically involves male performers, which evolved out of the punk and hardcore movements in Washington DC during the mid-80s. Scholarly literature on emo has explored its cultural and social contexts in relation to the “crisis” of masculinity—the challenging of the legitimacy of patriarchy through “alternative” forms of masculinity. This thesis builds upon this pioneering work but departs from its perpetuation of strict masculine binaries by conflating hegemonic and subordinate/alternative masculinities into a single subject position, which I call synergistic masculinity. In doing so, I use emo to explicate this vis-à-vis an intertextual analysis that explores the dominant themes in 1) lyrics; 2) the sites of vocal production (head, throat, chest) in conjunction with pitch and timbre; 3) the extensional and intensional intervallic relationships between notes and chords, and the use of dynamics in the musical syntax; 4) the use of public and private spaces, as well as the performative masculine body in music video. I posit that masculine emo performers dissolve these hierarchically organized masculinities, which allows for a deeper musical meaning and the extramusical signification of masculinity. Keywords: emo, synergistic masculinity, performativity, music video, masculinities, lyrics, vocal production, musical syntax, dynamics. ABSTRAIT Emo est un genre musical qui implique typiquement des musiciens de sexe masculine et qui est issu de movement punk et hardcore originaire de Washington DC durant les années 80.
