Lopez 2 3 The Cave| H.B. Diaz The cave gathered darkness the way that a corpse acquired maggots, over time, inevitably, until only pale bony structures remained. Faded yellow caution tape fluttered like the wings of a coal miner’s canary across the entrance, but Katrina’s twin paid it no mind. She bounded up the narrow trail, skirting fallen logs and ducking beneath the groping fingers of a low-hanging oak, her pack bouncing against the small of her back. This was a very bad idea. Even as she watched her feet move forward, fear slowed her steps. Her shoes pushed up dark soil and slid across slimy fallen leaves. “Come on,” her sister urged, pausing to look back. “You’ll be fine. Promise.” Katrina followed still, hoisting herself up onto a moss-slicked stone and keeping her eyes on her feet, away from the cavern ahead. Its mouth yawned like a portal into the netherworld, and she tasted bile. “Dr. Murdoch says this is the only way you’ll overcome your fear,” her sister said, but that didn’t seem right. Dr. Murdoch had always been so kind to her. When she began visiting him last year, he had calmly explained that the darkness could not harm her. She hadn’t believed him, of course, but the assertion had become a mantra in her mind when the last rays of sunlight shattered through the pines and fell below the horizon, when the night came and she was alone. It can’t hurt you. The darkness cannot hurt you. He had asked her to think back on her life to that singular moment where she had felt afraid for the first time, but she could recall nothing. She felt that this fear had been with her always; a spider with its fangs in her spine, paralyzing her and filling her with poison so that she would see monsters where there was only a bedpost or an innocuous pile of clothing. Her parents believed that she would grow out of it as all children do, but with each year that passed, it seemed that Katrina’s mind came nearer and nearer to a truth that others refused to acknowledge. Children could feel it, under the bed or in the closet where the darkest dark lived, before they were told about imaginations or monsters or nightlights. They knew, and then they forgot. Katrina had never forgotten. “Maddie,” she breathed as the trail leveled off, the hiss of the waterfall long behind them. Drooping trees stretched their branches over the cave, protecting it from the light of the sun and whispering to each other. The leaves showed their undersides to the sky. “It’s going to storm. We should just go.” “You can’t get out of this, Kat. It’s happening.” Katrina’s fingernails drew blood from her palms. She focused on the pain as Maddie took her by the wrist and the mouth of the cave opened to swallow her. Deeper and deeper they went until the sunlight faded to a pinpoint in the universe. Katrina heard her sister fiddling with the flashlight, tap tap tap against her hip. “Maddie,” she whimpered, tears stinging her eyes. “Won’t work.” A sob cracked out of her throat. She could hear the darkness in front of them, deeper in the cave, its leathery wings flapping against fetid air.

The origin of this thesis is, like many others before it, born from a sense of disjuncture between what I heard about something, and what I experienced of it. The ‘something’ in question is what is increasingly, and I believe somewhat erroneously, termed as ‘new audio culture’. By this I refer to all scholarly and popular talk and activity concerning iPods, MP3s, headphones, and podcasts: everything which we may understand as being tethered to an older history of audio-media, yet which is more often defined almost exclusively by its digital parameters.

    Newfolk NDiF: Making a Big Apple Crumble...Chapter 1 New Directions in Folklore 6 June 2002 Newfolk :: NDiF :: Issue 6 :: Chapter 1 :: Page 1:: Page 2 :: Chapter 2 :: References Making a Big Apple Crumble: The Role of Humor in Constructing a Global Response to Disaster1 Bill Ellis Chapter One: Introduction On the morning of September 11, 2001, terrorists associated with Osama bin Laden's al-Qaida, a fundamentalist Islamic political movement, hijacked four American jetliners. Two were crashed into the twin towers of New York's World Trade Center, causing them to collapse with catastrophic loss of life. A third was crashed into the Pentagon, costing an additional 189 lives, while passengers on a fourth evidently attacked the hijackers, causing the plane to crash in a rural area in western Pennsylvania with the loss of all 44 persons aboard. Much of the drama was played out live on national television, including the crash of the second plane into the South Tower at 9:03 AM and both towers' collapse, at 10:05 and 10:30 AM respectively. The tragedy sent shock waves through American culture not felt since the equally public tragedy of the explosion of the space shuttle Challenger in 1986. To be sure, the September 11 terrorist attacks were preceded by other anxiety-producing terrorist events: previous acts such as the 1985 Achille Lauro hijacking and the 1988 terrorist bombing of Pan Am 103 over Lockerbie, Scotland had inspired previous cycles of disaster humor. However, neither the first terrorist bombing at the World Trade Center in 1993 nor the Oklahoma City bombing in 1995 had the international impact of the new attacks.

  • The Shoah on Screen – Representing Crimes Against Humanity Big Screen, Film-Makers Generally Have to Address the Key Question of Realism
    Mémoi In attempting to portray the Holocaust and crimes against humanity on the The Shoah on screen – representing crimes against humanity big screen, film-makers generally have to address the key question of realism. This is both an ethical and an artistic issue. The full range of approaches has emember been adopted, covering documentaries and fiction, historical reconstructions such as Steven Spielberg’s Schindler’s List, depicting reality in all its details, and more symbolic films such as Roberto Benigni’s Life is beautiful. Some films have been very controversial, and it is important to understand why. Is cinema the best way of informing the younger generations about what moire took place, or should this perhaps be left, for example, to CD-Roms, videos Memoi or archive collections? What is the difference between these and the cinema as an art form? Is it possible to inform and appeal to the emotions without being explicit? Is emotion itself, though often very intense, not ambivalent? These are the questions addressed by this book which sets out to show that the cinema, a major art form today, cannot merely depict the horrors of concentration camps but must also nurture greater sensitivity among increas- Mémoire ingly younger audiences, inured by the many images of violence conveyed in the media. ireRemem moireRem The Shoah on screen – www.coe.int Representing crimes The Council of Europe has 47 member states, covering virtually the entire continent of Europe.

  • The New Aural Actuality: an Exploration of Music, Sound And
    THE NEW AURAL ACTUALITY: AN EXPLORATION OF MUSIC, SOUND AND MEANING IN THE COMPOSED FEATURE DOCUMENTARY PODCAST by Benjamin Richard Phillip Horner Canterbury Christ Church University Thesis submitted for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy 2019 Abstract This practice-led thesis explores the creative techniques and philosophies used in composing feature documentary podcasts and how listeners engage with the material and make meaning from it. Podcasting as a medium presents a new and so far unexplored way of interfacing with audio documentary and this study works to demonstrate crucial differences from radio practice in terms of intention and expression, how material is made, consideration for its audience, and how its programmes are distributed. Using post-structural theory, specifically Deleuze and Guattari’s ideas on interconnected networks of affective transmission, podcasting’s relationship to radio is explored, as is how listeners make meaning through their interaction with both the heard material and the devices upon which it is accessed. These theories are then applied to the characteristically open remit of the audio documentary to study how speech, music, sound and silence may be understood to generate meaning, emotion and a sense of immersion in the listener. It is suggested that modes of programme access, listening customs, and interpretational symbolism work together to impart information vital to the ability to connote and denote what is being heard, and that in this way the composed feature can be situated very closely to musical practice and engagement. Taking cues from musical and cinematic analytical practice three podcast programmes are closely scrutinised for an understanding of their constituent material, structural shape, and potential affective transmissions, before interviews with their producers are presented to discuss conceptual intentions and execution.
