  • A Multi-Level Perspective Analysis of the Change in Music Consumption 1989-2014
    A multi-level perspective analysis of the change in music consumption 1989-2014 by Richard Samuels Thesis submitted for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy School of Geography and Planning Cardiff University 2018 i Abstract This thesis seeks to examine the historical socio-technical transitions in the music industry through the 1990s and 2000s which fundamentally altered the way in which music is consumed along with the environmental resource impact of such transitions. Specifically, the investigation seeks to establish a historical narrative of events that are significant to the story of this transition through the use of the multi-level perspective on socio-technical transitions as a framework. This thesis adopts a multi-level perspective for socio-technical transitions approach to analyse this historical narrative seeking to identify key events and actors that influenced the transition as well as enhance the methodological implementation of the multi-level perspective. Additionally, this thesis utilised the Material Intensity Per Service unit methodology to derive several illustrative scenarios of music consumption and their associated resource usage to establish whether the socio-technical transitions experienced by the music industry can be said to be dematerialising socio-technical transitions. This thesis provides a number of original empirical and theoretical contributions to knowledge. This is achieved by presenting a multi-level perspective analysis of a historical narrative established using over 1000 primary sources. The research identifies, examines and discusses key events, actors and transition pathways denote the complex nature of dematerialising socio-technical systems as well as highlights specifically the influence different actors and actor groups can have on the pathways that transitions take.

  • 1 Christian Education/Graduation
    CHRISTIAN EDUCATION/GRADUATION SUNDAY MUSIC & WORSHIP RESOURCES Sunday, May 26, 2013 Neichelle R. Guidry Jones, Lectionary Young Adult Liturgists’ Team Worship Planning Notes As you are preparing to plan this service, be sure to include students who are on the brink of graduation. Allow them space to discuss their struggles and triumphs throughout their academic journeys, and the manners in which the congregations has been a support to them. Have there been any sermons, songs, or auxiliary ministries that were especially helpful to them over the years? Did the church do an adequate job of speaking to their concerns as students? What are their hopes and fears as they move out of school and into the next phases of their lives? What lessons did they learn through their academic career—both inside and outside of the classroom—and how have they been impacted by these lessons? Gather the information that you’ve gained from this conversation and tailor a service that celebrates and affirms their journey. Through the course of the service, remind each worshipper that with every achievement comes greater responsibility to justly and creatively contribute to our respective communities. That which is learned in the classroom must be coupled with the wisdom and knowledge that is gained from wider culture, life, relationships, and commitment to creating just communities. How will you convey the collective call to lifelong learning, specifically the call to learn to do good? The focus Scripture for this service suggests that learning to do good and to promote justice and equality are learned behaviors that are cultivated over time.

  • YOUTH DAY (YOUTH and HEALTH) Sunday, November 11, 2012 Guest
    YOUTH DAY (YOUTH AND HEALTH) Sunday, November 11, 2012 Guest Writer for This Unit: John R. Faison Sr. is Senior Pastor, Watson Grove Missionary Baptist Church, Nashville, TN. The unit you are viewing, Youth Day, is a compact unit. This means that it is not a complete commentary of the Scripture(s) selected for this day on the calendar, nor does it have a full, supporting cultural resource unit and worship unit. Instead, to enliven the imagination of preachers and teachers, we have provided a sermonic outline, songs, suggested books, and suggested articles, links, and videos. For additional information see Youth Day in the archives of the Lectionary for 2008–2011. 2012 is the second year that the African American Lectionary has posted compact units for moments on its liturgical calendar. I. Description of the Liturgical Moment Melva Sampson wrote in the 2009 African American Lectionary commentary for Youth Day: The African proverb “It takes a village to raise a child” is taken literally in the African American Church. The entire community and congregation are responsible for the leadership development, spiritual enhancement, and biblical literacy of youth within and beyond the church walls. Youth Day is typically born out of 1 substantive youth programming. Youth programming and special recognition days provide opportunities for the congregation and ministry leaders to address specific themes, concerns, and issues that affect young people. The specifics for a Youth Day celebration vary. In some settings, the youth provide liturgical leadership for the planning and actual delivery during the worship moment. In this vein, adult participation is minimal.
