The issue also includes articles from Perth and Sydney, and the historical perspective runs from the 12th century to the present day. As the year 2009 is ending, the project ‘Childhood, Tradition and Change’ is entering its fourth, and final, year. This national study of the historical and contemporary practices and signifi- cance of Australian children’s playlore has been funded by the Australian Research Council together with Melbourne, Deakin and Curtin Universities and the National Library of Australia and Museum Victoria. In 2010 the research team will be carrying out its final fieldwork in primary school playgrounds, beginning the analysis of the rich body of data already obtained, and preparing the book which is the project’s final outcome. We are pleased to include Graham Seal’s review of the analytic essays of Alan Dundes, as edited by Simon Bronner. Both the book itself and Seal’s review pay tribute to the seminal work of one of the world’s most distinguished folklorists.

  • Sorcerer Society" by Rob Cesternino
    30 ROCK "Sorcerer Society" by Rob Cesternino Cell: (323)382-3083 [email protected] ACT ONE FADE IN: INT. STUDIO BACKSTAGE - MORNING LIZ walks through the hallways of 30 Rock. JENNA spots Liz and runs over. JENNA Today is the greatest day of my life. My IMDB star meter is up four percent! LIZ Are they finally airing your episode of "Competitive Eating with the Stars". JENNA No, that was last month. Last night I was a guest star on an episode of the new NBC series, “Sorcerer Society”! FLASHBACK TO: INT. SORCERY CLASSROOM - DAY Jenna is dressed as a sorceress standing before a classroom at Sorcery High School. JENNA I'm Mrs. Mongothsbeard, I’ll be substituting for your regular sorcery teacher, who was caught making a very bad potion called “crystal meth”. CUT BACK TO: INT. LIZ’S OFFICE - CONTINUOUS Liz and Jenna walk into Liz’s office. LIZ Jenna, that show sucks! It totally bastardizes the books. 2. JENNA "Sorcerer Society" was a book? Liz points to her shelf of thick “Sorcerer Society” books. LIZ Those books were my only friends in junior high school... besides the teachers. JACK bursts into Liz's office carrying one of the trades. JACK Everybody is buzzing about Jenna this morning and, for once, it’s not because of some compromising photos on “TMZ”. JENNA This is the best thing to happen to me since they dropped the class action lawsuit against my "Jenna Maroney Birth Control Powder"! JACK “Sorcerer Society” is a runaway hit. It’s like "Twilight" meets "Harry Potter" meets "Heroes", before it jumped the shark.

    Issue No. 7 (September 2003) — New Media Technologies The Technology, Aesthetic and Cultural Politics of a Collaborative, Transnational Music Recording Project: Veiga, Veiga and the Itinerant Overdubs By Denis Crowdy and Karl Neuenfeldt New media innovations and the popularity of ‘world music’ have facilitated crosscultural and transnational recording projects in the past few decades. New media technology makes collaboration at a distance feasible and a market for the very eclectic genre(s) of ‘world music’ makes projects potentially economically viable. Beginning approximately in the mid- 1980s with the popularity, and contentiousness, of Paul Simon’s Graceland project (Meintjes 1990) and other ‘world music’ projects such as Deep Forest (Feld 2000), academic researchers have explored the nature, legality and cultural dynamics of such recordings (e.g. Mills 1996; Zemp 1996). An ancillary to such research has been research into the multifaceted roles of academics in such kinds of cultural production. Cultural production here includes the overlapping components of most contemporary cultural products, including their ‘circuit of culture’ (production, regulation, identity, representation and consumption) (Du Gay 1997). Such research provides insights into the processes and end products of cultural production of a particular ‘art world’ of shared aesthetics (Becker 1982), in this case popular music. Examples of such academic involvement include: production and participation in educational dance performances (Mackinlay 2001), soundscape and acoustic ecology recordings (Feld 1991, 2001; Feld and Crowdy 2002), and commercial or community-orientated music CDs (Scales 2002, Neuenfeldt 2001). This article describes and analyses the aesthetic, technological and cultural processes informing the cultural production of Veiga, Veiga, a song recorded by 73-year-old Australian Torres Strait Islander Henry (Seaman) Dan.
