“No Reason to Be Seen”: Cinema, Exploitation, and the Political
“No Reason to Be Seen”: Cinema, Exploitation, and the Political by Gordon Sullivan B.A., University of Central Florida, 2004 M.A., North Carolina State University, 2007 Submitted to the Graduate Faculty of The Kenneth P. Dietrich School of Arts and Sciences in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of Pittsburgh 2017 UNIVERSITY OF PITTSBURGH THE KENNETH P. DIETRICH SCHOOL OF ARTS AND SCIENCES This dissertation was presented by Gordon Sullivan It was defended on October 20, 2017 and approved by Marcia Landy, Distinguished Professor, Department of English Jennifer Waldron, Associate Professor, Department of English Daniel Morgan, Associate Professor, Department of Cinema and Media Studies, University of Chicago Dissertation Advisor: Adam Lowenstein, Professor, Department of English ii Copyright © by Gordon Sullivan 2017 iii “NO REASON TO BE SEEN”: CINEMA, EXPLOITATION, AND THE POLITICAL Gordon Sullivan, PhD University of Pittsburgh, 2017 This dissertation argues that we can best understand exploitation films as a mode of political cinema. Following the work of Peter Brooks on melodrama, the exploitation film is a mode concerned with spectacular violence and its relationship to the political, as defined by French philosopher Jacques Rancière. For Rancière, the political is an “intervention into the visible and sayable,” where members of a community who are otherwise uncounted come to be seen as part of the community through a “redistribution of the sensible.” This aesthetic rupture allows the demands of the formerly-invisible to be seen and considered. We can see this operation at work in the exploitation film, and by investigating a series of exploitation auteurs, we can augment our understanding of what Rancière means by the political. -

Bio information: JOHN SURMAN Title: FLASHPOINT: NDR JAZZ WORKSHOP – APRIL '69 (Cuneiform Rune 315-316) Cuneiform publicity/promotion dept.: (301) 589-8894 / fax (301) 589-1819 email: joyce [-at-] cuneiformrecords.com [Press & world radio]; radio [-at-] cuneiformrecords.com [North American radio] www.cuneiformrecords.com FILE UNDER: JAZZ One of Europe’s foremost jazz musicians, John Surman is a masterful improvisor, composer, and multi-instrumentalist (baritone and soprano sax, bass clarinet, and synthesizers/electronics). For 45 years, he has been a major force, producing a prodigious and creative body of work that expands beyond jazz. Surman’s extensive discography as a leader and a side man numbers more than 100 recordings to date. Surman has worked with dozens of prominent artists worldwide, including John McLaughlin, Chick Corea, Chris McGregor’s Brotherhood of Breath, Dave Holland, Miroslav Vitous, Jack DeJohnette, Terje Rypdal, Weather Report, Karin Krog, Bill Frisell, Paul Motian and many more. Surman is probably most popularly known for his longstanding association with the German label ECM, who began releasing Surman’s recordings in 1979. Surman has won numerous jazz polls and awards and a number of important commissions. Every period of his career is filled with highlights, which is why Cuneiform is exceedingly proud to release for the first time ever this amazing document of the late 60s 'Brit-jazz' scene. Born in Tavistock, in England, Surman discovered music as a child, singing as soprano soloist in a Plymouth-area choir. He later bought a second- hand clarinet, took lessons from a Royal Marine Band clarinetist, and began playing traditional Dixieland jazz at local jazz clubs. -

I Attended Church Several Times on Sunday Mornings at University Methodist at the Corner of Guadalupe and 24Thstreets
First Encounter During the time I was in Austin as a UT grad student (1955-57) I attended church several times on Sunday mornings at University Methodist at the corner of Guadalupe and 24thstreets. In the fall of 1956 I also investigated programs at Wesley Foundation, the Methodist Church chaplaincy division for students. After the first session I attended, the larger group broke up into smaller “interest groups.” Many went with a leader who seemed quite popular (I later learned his name was Bob Ledbetter). I joined a smaller group (about six or eight people) led by an associate pastor at University Methodist, the Rev. Richardson. We’d discuss art in religion, particularly various paintings of the image of Jesus. Two in particular that I remember we looked at were the famous Salmon’s Head of Christ and another painted by the French artist Georges Roualt. For both paintings the Rev. Richardson conducted what I’d later realize to be an “art form” conversation. Obviously, although I didn’t know it at the time, he’d had contact with Austin’s Christian Faith and Life Community and its charismatic theological director, Joseph W. Mathews. In the conversation our study group came to the conclusion that Salmon’s painting was sentimental and schmaltzy and that Roualt’s (“Christ Mocked by Soldiers”) was more powerful. Ecumenical Institute Introduction As a grad student at the University of Minnesota (1961-67) I attended the of First Methodist Church and Wesley Foundation. A Mrs. Peel had left money in her will to bring to the church each year a special preacher. -

While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the original submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or patterns which may appear on this reproduction. 1.The sign or "target" for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Page(s)". If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting thru an image and duplicating adjacent pages to insure you complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a large round black mark, it is an indication that the photographer suspected that the copy may have moved during exposure and thus cause a blurred image. -

Many parents take their children home, only to return for some truly great Bluegrass from Old Crowe Medicine Show, Reeltime Travelers, Larry Keel, Peter Rowan and Tony Rice and headliner Sam Bush, among others. Aiken organizer Steve Groat says Bluegrass music has a unifying effect on a community, with an appeal that stretches across all ages, incomes and social levels. “And our festival is for a wonderful cause, supporting STAR Riding and Driving, an equestrian volunteer organization dedicated to helping children and adults with disabilities through therapeutic interaction with horses,” says Groat. “We couldn’t be more pleased, bringing great music to our town and helping so many through the music.” By Stephen Delaney Hale Make your plans for some musical fun May 11-12, 2007.

Four years old in May 2007, the Aiken Bluegrass Festival is already an important stop on the national circuit as it winds its way around the Carolina mountains where it was born and throughout the rest of the country. From the start, the Aiken festival has drawn some of the greatest names in Bluegrass—and their fans. Part of the reason for the festival’s instant popularity is its venue. The new, wide-open Newberry Street Festival Site in downtown Aiken was fashioned by the city for just this sort of thing. -

Kurve Zur Hymne
# 2009/46 dschungel https://jungle.world/artikel/2009/46/kurve-zur-hymne Kurve zur Hymne Von Michael Saager <none> Yoni Wolf, Kopf des Trios Why?, ist nicht so übereifrig, wie es auf den ersten Blick ausschaut. Die Veröffentlichung von »Alopecia« liegt zwar erst ein Jahr zurück, und schon gibt es wieder ein neues Album, aber »Eskimo Snow« entpuppt sich dann doch nur als Produkt, das derselben Aufnahmesession entstammt wie »Alopecia«. Das allerdings hört man nicht unbedingt, leider. »Alopecia« verhalf dem Trio aus Cincinnati zum verdienten Durchbruch, weil es griffige Indiepop-Hooklines, fette, immer komplexe Beats und Yoni Wolfs Lyrics zu verbinden wusste. Insbesondere die Ohrwurmqualitäten des Vorgängers vermisst man nun auf »Eskimo Snow« – man muss die Stücke schon einige Male hören, um sich ihre Melodieverläufe merken zu können. Das Fehlen einprägsamer Melodien ist keine Schwäche an sich, fällt aber bei diesem Album umso deutlicher ins Gewicht, als »Eskimo Snow« aus Songs besteht, die dem Indie- Folk nahestehen oder der Psychedelic-Pop-Songwriter-Tradition entspringen. Und weil Produzent Mark Nevers (von Lambchop) der Ansicht war, scharfe Konturen müssten nicht unbedingt sein, wabert »Eskimo Snow« nun über lange Strecken einigermaßen orientierungslos vor sich hin. Glücklicherweise gibt es ein paar Ausnahmen, die so wundervoll sind, dass man die schwachen Stücke gerne verzeiht: Hier kriegt das Mäandernde die Kurve und wird mit assoziativer Selbstverständlichkeit alsbald in einen Refrain überführt, der hymnischer nicht sein könnte.
