Komisji Edukacji Narodowej w Krakowie ORCID 0000-0001-7664-4599 Tanatoekshibicjonizm medialny w perspektywie (metal) music studies. Rekonesans Słowie wstępnym - Wymiary śmierci Stanisław Rosiek w do antologii francuskich tekstów dotyczą cych tanatologii zatytułowanej stwierdza: „Cóż można powiedzieć o śmierci, prócz tego, że jest – i że jest nieuchronna? Niewiele więcej. A jednak mówi się o niej i pisze ciągle od nowa” (Rosiek 2002: 6). Badacz dostrzega dewaluację słów o śmierci, zauważa, że „jako kategoria ogólna – zniknęła, tak samo jak kiedyś- rozpadła się jako persona” (Rosiek 2002: 6). Historyk literatury podkreśla jednak- wartość i potrzebę mówienia o zmarłych, a także o „żywych, którzy się obok umar- łych pojawiają jako uczestnicy zbiorowych rytuałów żałobnych lub jako rozpacza jący wedle prywatnej reguły” (Rosiek 2002: 6). Celem artykułu będzie próba scha rakteryzowania wybranych zjawisk związanych ze śmiercią muzyków metalowych- i wskazania specyficznych osadzonych w kontekście metakultury symultaniczności (Burszta 2007: 37) aspektów ogniskujących się przede wszystkim wokół medial nych reprezentacji o charakterze (tanato)ekshibicjonistycznym. Jeden z najważniejszych francuskich prekursorów studiów tanatologicznych,- socjolog Louis-Vincent Thomas, zauważał poszerzenie zakresu badań dotyczących tanatologii jako szczególnej refleksji o życiu i śmierci, służącej życiu i upamiętnia jącej tych, którzy od nas odeszli (Thomas 2002: 11). Badacz wskazuje wybrane- dziedziny współtworzące tę wiedzę: filozofię i teologię, sztukę (malarstwo, rzeźbę,- architekturę, muzykę, komiks, fotografię, sztukę filmową) i literaturę, nauki biolo giczno-medyczne, nauki humanistyczne i społeczne (lingwistykę i semiologię, histo- rię, antropologię społeczną i kulturową, psychologię, ekonomię śmierci).

  • EDITORIAL BLITZ! Numéro 17
    EDITORIALEDITORIAL BLITZ!BLITZ! numéronuméro 1717 La transition entre les années 2015 et 2016 a été marquée par deux décès majeurs dans le monde de la musique moderne et populaire que nous aimons : Ian « Lemmy » Frazer Kilmister, fondateur de Motörhead, et David Bowie, artiste aux talents multiples, ont pris le grand départ pour l’au-delà. Nous avons décidé de consacrer notre dossier à Motörhead, projet musical dont nous admirons la constance affichée pendant quarante ans, et qu’il serait très réducteur d’affubler de la seule étiquette heavy metal. Quant à David Bowie, l’influence qu’il a exercée sur beaucoup d’artistes que nous aimons, parmi lesquels Ian Curtis, le rend forcément incontournable dans un très prochain numéro de BLITZ! Fort heureusement, le présent numéro de votre webzine n’est pas qu’une rubrique nécrologique : vous y trouverez aussi des interviews et des articles consacrés à des artistes bien vivants, dont les têtes fourmillent de projets. Bonne lecture et merci pour votre fidélité ! Général Hiver BLITZ! numéro 17 – 1er trimestre 2016 1 TELEX – BLITZ! numéro 17 – Par le Général Hiver Le label français Unknown Pleasures propose une compilation hommage au duo new-yorkais Suicide, pionner de la musique électronique et incarnation du slogan do it yourself cher aux punks. La setlist rassemble des noms prestigieux : Gabi Delgado s’associe à Adan & Ilse dans une cover très réussie de « Girl ».Les reprises les plus remarquables sont, à notre avis, celles de Distel (qui offre une version funèbre de « Che »), et de Laag, dont le « Rain of Ruin » très new wave nous a ravis, Le morceau « Ghostrider » est quant à lui présent trois fois, la version d’In Death It Ends, quoique réussie, n’a pas l’intensité urbaine de son homologue, proposée par..

Just have to keep the temperature firmly in check,” Lothar Wa- gener mused to himself as he eyed the yellow-brownish mass bubbling in a glass container, heated by a gas burner underneath. His present location was ten metres below ground, at Purexo's secret research facility for especially chal- lenging desserts (referred to ECD's in official memos.) He was the scientist in charge of product develop- ment and analysis. Purexo was the global leader of food, events and fa- cilities management services. Its morals and ethics had been questioned in the media several times. There had been demonstrations against the company, sometimes bordering on riots. Even some famous people had been arrested during these demonstrations. As for some of the less famous persons arrested – they had never been heard from again.
