Ruoff, Chair Laura Robson Jennifer Tappan Portland State University 2019 © 2019 Jeff Braytenbah Abstract Japan’s colonial activities on the island of Hokkaido were instrumental to the creation of modern Japanese national identity. Within this construction, the indigenous Ainu people came to be seen in dialectical opposition to the 'modern' and 'civilized' identity that Japanese colonial actors fashioned for themselves. This process was articulated through travel literature, ethnographic portraiture, and discourse in scientific racism which racialized perceived divisions between the Ainu and Japanese and contributed to the unmaking of the Ainu homeland: Ainu Mosir.

  • Bill Laswell
    Jazz Collection: Bill Laswell Samstag, 22. August 2015, 22.00 - 24.00 Uhr Nichts ist wahr, alles ist erlaubt: der Bassist Bill Laswell Offenheit, das ist der zweite Vorname von Bill Laswell. Kaum ein anderer Musiker hat so viel verschiedene Musik gespielt, produziert und publiziert wie er. «Manchmal entwickelt sich ein Fehler in den besten Teil, da muss man offen bleiben» sagte Bill Laswell kürzlich in einem Interview. Und Offenheit, das ist in der Tat das Credo von Bill Laswell. Auch unter den Bassisten, die ja oft in vielen verschiedenen Projekten mitmischen, gibt es nicht viele, die so breit arbeiten wie Laswell. Von experimenteller und elektronischer Musik über Rock (Iggy Pop!) bis Jazz kennt Bill Laswell keine Berührungsängste – als Musiker nicht, nicht als Label-Chef und auch nicht als Produzent. Ob einer mit so breiten Interessen dennoch so etwas wie einen Personalstil entwickeln kann, diskutiert der Bassist Wolfgang Zwieauer in der Jazz Collection mit Jodok Hess.

FINDING THEIR PLACE IN THE WORLD: MEIJI INTELLECTUALS AND THE JAPANESE CONSTRUCTION OF AN EAST-WEST BINARY 1868-1912 BY MASAKO NOHARA RACEL Under the Direction of Douglas R. Reynolds ABSTRACT The Meiji era (1868-1912) in Japanese history was characterized by the extensive adoption of Western institutions, technology, and customs. The dramatic changes that took place caused the era’s intellectuals to ponder Japan's position within the larger global context. The East-West binary was a particularly important part of the discourse as the intellectuals analyzed and criticized the current state of affairs and offered their visions of Japan’s future. This dissertation examines five Meiji intellectuals who had very different orientations and agendas: Fukuzawa Yukichi, an influential philosopher and political theorist; Shimoda Utako, a pioneer of women's education; Uchimura Kanzō, a Christian leader; Okakura Kakuzō, an art critic; and Kōtoku Shūsui, a socialist.

  • The Conference
    Welcome to the Conference I am delighted to welcome you to the 4th international Reflective Conservatoire Conference: Creativity and Changing Cultures, hosted by the Guildhall School of Music & Drama in partnership with the European Association of Conservatoires (AEC), Arts and Humanities in Higher Education, ASIMUT software, Cause4, the Centre of Excellence in Music Performance Education (CEMPE), the Incorporated Society of Musicians (ISM), the Institute of Musical Research (IMR), the Society for Education, Music & Psychology Research (SEMPRE), The Culture Capital Exchange (TCCE) and Conservatoires UK (CUK). The programme is packed with what promises to be inspiring and thought-provoking sessions which we hope will lead and define a paradigm-shift in conservatoire cultures. Our themes are: Creativity, Playfulness and Improvisation; Interdisciplinary Connections; The World in 2020 and Beyond; and Viewpoints on the Developing Artist. We hope to stimulate debate on how reflective conservatoires can bring about change and innovation to established creative practice as well as preparing students for a professional world with open-ended possibilities. The keynote presentations will focus on reflection on creative processes in both music education and in the making of artistic work, with Ricardo Castro talking on Brazil’s NEOJIBA youth music training programme and Liz Lerman on the Critical Response Process, a feedback system for developing work in progress. The opening keynote, ‘The artist as maker - current issues and future prospects’ will draw on perspectives from across the performing arts, open up fundamental questions about artistic freedom and creativity, and provoke debate. I hope that you find much to discuss, debate and reflect upon over the next few days and that you take advantage of the many social opportunities to forge new professional ties and friendships with fellow conference participants from the global conservatoire community.
