    An Obligation to Do One's Best by Dana Smessaert May 2020

    An Obligation to do One’s Best by Dana Smessaert May 2020 Director of Thesis: Angela Wells Major Department: School of Art and Design An Obligation to do One's Best is an exploration of myth and reality at home in a small southern town. The artist is calling into question whose history we are referencing when it comes to art, economics, and culture. In these liminal landscapes, the viewer/spectator becomes a collaborator in the mythos of racism in the Southern narrative—the denial of not only its racist past but also the strides of the Civil Rights protests. The research explores the agency of history and cultural capital through a site-specific installation with images, video, sculpture, and sound. Creating a liminal landscape of the American South through physical and metaphysical readings of its trauma, history, and understanding the “...south as a noun that behaves like a verb.”1 The South is entwined with history, politics, economics, and racism, a link that can never be severed, this paper consorts with classic literature, history, cinema, demographics, and philosophy. The American South, the house, the name, and the family's history are complicated and seemingly transparent to those on the outside. However, the stories of those who live here still exist in the space between myth and reality. 1 Romine, Scott. The Real South: Southern Narrative in the Age of Cultural Reproduction.

    Crypto Logo Jihad Black Metal and the Aesthetics of Evil by Daniel Van

    Crypto Logo Jihad Black Metal and the Aesthetics of Evil by Daniel van der Velden First published in Metropolis M 3, 2007 This edit published in Art Papers November/December, 2007 Black metal shrouds itself in the darkest of blacks. Deeply unintelligible guttural sounds, illegible logos—the bands do everything they can not to be understood or appreciated. Yet black metal’s dedication to absolute darkness in no way hampers its increasing acceptance in the realms of visibility and the visual arts. At this rate, head bangers can look forward to a perfectly legible future in spotless white cubes. The song is called War, the band, Burzum. Backed by drums, the sound of massive guitar overdrive blares from the speakers. Then, a shrieking voice joins in. It sounds like a Muppet is being strangled, although I realize that someone is in deadly earnest here. The singer is alone. Varg Vikernes, the only member of the Norwegian band Burzum, plays the guitar and drums. He is now in jail for killing Øystein Aarseth, the guitarist of black metal band Mayhem, and for setting fire to churches. In prison, he is devoting himself to the future of the Aryan race and his own Weltanschauung.[1] His writings and portraits reach the outside world through a website hosted in Russia. I first read about the Norwegian group Mayhem and their legendary demo album Pure Fucking Armageddon back in 1987, in the Dutch magazine Aardschok/Metal Hammer. It was a time when bands recorded their own demos and distributed them on tape and an intensive network sprang up between small cells of bands and youths— mostly guys—who also wanted a band of their own: holding a guitar, reinventing yourself, making lots of noise, lulling your mind to sleep.
