  • Visual Metaphors on Album Covers: an Analysis Into Graphic Design's
    Visual Metaphors on Album Covers: An Analysis into Graphic Design’s Effectiveness at Conveying Music Genres by Vivian Le A THESIS submitted to Oregon State University Honors College in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Honors Baccalaureate of Science in Accounting and Business Information Systems (Honors Scholar) Presented May 29, 2020 Commencement June 2020 AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF Vivian Le for the degree of Honors Baccalaureate of Science in Accounting and Business Information Systems presented on May 29, 2020. Title: Visual Metaphors on Album Covers: An Analysis into Graphic Design’s Effectiveness at Conveying Music Genres. Abstract approved:_____________________________________________________ Ryann Reynolds-McIlnay The rise of digital streaming has largely impacted the way the average listener consumes music. Consequentially, while the role of album art has evolved to meet the changes in music technology, it is hard to measure the effect of digital streaming on modern album art. This research seeks to determine whether or not graphic design still plays a role in marketing information about the music, such as its genre, to the consumer. It does so through two studies: 1. A computer visual analysis that measures color dominance of an image, and 2. A mixed-design lab experiment with volunteer participants who attempt to assess the genre of a given album. Findings from the first study show that color scheme models created from album samples cannot be used to predict the genre of an album. Further findings from the second theory show that consumers pay a significant amount of attention to album covers, enough to be able to correctly assess the genre of an album most of the time.

  • Giuseppe Polise* BLACK WOMEN MATTER
    Iperstoria – Testi Letterature Linguaggi www.iperstoria.it Rivista semestrale ISSN 2281-4582 Giuseppe Polise* BLACK WOMEN MATTER: THE #BLACKLIVESMATTER MOVEMENT, BLACK FEMALE SINGERS, AND INTERSECTIONAL FEMINISM The comeback in 2015 and 2016 of some of the most successful names on the contemporary American and global music scene coincided with the flourishing of a new season of black protest that has made its way into the artistic productions of several African American stars. Through the contributions of black women singers, in particular, such music seems to have gained unprecedented attention for its articulation of black feminist discourses that are also a major issue in the latest campaigns against systemic racism and condoned police brutality in America. In view of that, the present article analyzes the intersections and cross-fertilizations between black protest culture and US black female music in the wake of the emergence of the #BlackLivesMatter.1 Debunking dangerous narratives about black womanhood and questioning standardized norms of beauty, femininity, and masculinity, both forms of black protest, in fact, contribute to dismantling hegemonic white hetero-patriarchal ideologies that oppress the lives of black women and queer subjects who are forced to the margins of American society. If active participation ̶ i.e. mass marches, sit-ins, and national strikes ̶ is fundamental in the #BlackLivesMatter agenda, protest music complements the movement by echoing its messages on an international scale. Contemporary black women icons such as Beyoncé are using their platform of visibility to share with the audience feminist statements that lay in the fabric of the movement itself. As it will be shown, such strong connection between black women's music and protest culture has a long history: it was already witnessed in the era of Civil Rights when Nina Simone insisted on black women's experience in segregated America through her immense body of work, and again, with Lauryn Hill's Hip-Hop nationally acclaimed masterpiece The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill (1998).

  • Press 3 February 2021 the 25 Defining Works of the Black
    TIME The 25 Defining Works of the Black Renaissance 3 February 2021 The 25 Defining Works of the Black Renaissance “I’m rooting for everybody Black.” So said Issa Rae on the red carpet at the 2017 Emmy Awards, capturing the electricity of a moment when “everybody Black” referred to quite a large group of ascendant voices—not only those up for awards that night, and not only those in Hollywood, but artists across the cultural landscape. While there has never been a shortage of Black artists making great work, the past six or so years have seen these creators claiming the spotlight like never before. Image: O.J. Made in America: ESPN Films/Everett Collection; Slave Play: Sarah Krulwich—The New York Times/Redux; Black Panther: Marvel/Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures/Everett Collection; Getty Images In fact, the hardest part of compiling this list of 25 works that have defined the current Black Renaissance was coming to terms with what had to be left out: vital films, series, albums, books, poetry collections, plays and works of fashion. For guidance, TIME assembled some of the era’s most influential figures—artists who have also become advocates, mentors and changemakers—to help curate the list. These luminaries across disciplines voted on hundreds of works to reach a compilation of original, ambitious art, from paintings that will live in perpetuity in the National Portrait Gallery to music that became the soundtrack to a movement; books about marriage and memory and TV series that are as weird as they are wise. The works of this new canon are defined by their breadth and diversity—a movement of pop stars and public intellectuals, superheroes and screwups, horror and ecstasy, individuality and unity.

  • Trends in American Fiction Morrison & Music
    ENG 352:420: Trends in American Fiction Morrison & Music Tuesdays and Thursdays: 11:30 AM-12:50 PM Room: HAH 421 Professor: Dr. Melanie R. Hill Office Hours: Tuesdays from 1:00 PM-2:00 PM and by appointment Location: Hill Hall 512 Phone: (973) 353-5182 Email: [email protected] Course Overview: In an article in The New Yorker entitled, “Toni Morrison and Nina Simone, United in Soul,” Emily Lordi writes, “Toni Morrison was such an exceptional talent and seemed to float so high above the fray, that it’s easy to forget she was a product of her time. But she was profoundly influenced by the work of contemporary musicians. She wanted her writing to emulate, ... ‘all of the intricacy, all of the discipline, that she heard in black musical performance.’” In this course, we will explore Toni Morrison’s canonical oevure from novels, Jazz and Song of Solomon to Sula and Beloved. In addition to Morrison’s works, we will examine the intersection of African American literature and music, as well as race, gender and spirituality. This seminar will juxtapose Morrison’s renowned literature with the performances of black musicians from Nina Simone and Curtis Mayfield to Issac Hayes and Aretha Franklin. As both text and performance, prose and poetry, and literature and music, studying the works of Toni Morrison offers an excellent resource for our investigation of black literary studies. This seminar is designed to give students a profound examination of Toni Morrison’s writing, and involve students in the kinds of research that the discipline of literary studies currently demands, including: working with primary sources and archival materials; reviewing the critical literature; using online databases of historical newspapers, periodicals, and other cultural materials; exploring relevant contexts in literary, linguistic, and cultural history; studying the etymological history and changing meanings of words; experimenting with new methods of computational analysis of texts; and other methodologies.

The Planner in Action: China’s Influence as a Developing and Non-Market Economy on the WTO Abstract Chinese accession to the World Trade Organization in 2001 forever altered the international economy as it marked the political-economic diversification of international trade negotiations and law. Before the implications of Chinese accession became apparent, scholars predicted that Chinese WTO membership would greatly affect the Organization. While this thesis agrees with this general sentiment, it insists that China’s effect on the WTO is not wholly negative or positive and requires a nuanced, sub-institutional assessment to understand. Qualifying and expanding upon scholars’ pre-2001 predictions, this thesis argues that for the most part, China did not proactively cause instances of institutional weakness and organizational ineffectuality.

  • Don't Touch My Hair
    Tamara Henry New York Theological Seminary [email protected] REA Annual Meeting: 2018 “Don’t Touch My Hair”: Exploring a Womanist Pedagogy of Resistance in the Music and Art of Beyoncé and Solange Knowles Abstract: For many young Black women, aesthetic rituals and practices related to their hair serve as embodied forms of resistance that also reflect a constitutive, yet often unrecognized dimension of their spirituality. This study will highlight specifically that the art and music of two black female popular artists, Beyoncé and Solange are being utilized by young Black women not only to theologize from their unique positions in the world but also to engage in distinctly womanist pedagogies that employ a natural black hair aesthetic as a primary site of resistance to white dominance. Introduction Preoccupation with white beauty standards has a long history in the legacy of Christian tradition, especially with respect to hair. In this regard, a preoccupation with white beauty standards represents one feature of a racialized, Eurocentric aesthetic regime within Christianity that ultimately gives way to viewing white bodies as beautiful, good, and divine.1 The effects of this racialized aesthetic are particularly evident in the distinct pedagogical agenda adopted by many churches that privilege a white aesthetic and make it difficult for persons of African descent—and especially Black women—to locate themselves within the images of the Christian tradition they have claimed. Womanist scholars of religion have sought to resolve this conundrum by prioritizing Black women’s stories and experiences and reflecting them within theological, aesthetic, and pedagogical frameworks of Christianity.

  • Black Women Writers in Literature
    ENG 352:416: Seminar in Modern American Fiction Womanifesto: Black Women Writers in Literature Tuesdays and Thursdays: 10:00 AM-11:20 AM Room: Conklin Hall 348 Professor: Dr. Melanie R. Hill Office Hours: Tuesdays from 1:00 PM-2:00 PM and by appointment Location: Hill Hall 512 Phone: (973) 353-5182 Email: [email protected] Course Overview: Exploring the distinguished literary canon of twentieth and twenty-first century African- American women writers from Zora Neale Hurston and Toni Morrison to Maya Angelou and Ntozake Shange, this course will examine black women's writing through fiction, poetry, and drama. Using Jazz, Gospel, Neo-Soul, and Hip-Hop music genres, this course will explore the performance of the black woman's voice in twentieth and twenty-first century African American literature. From writers Zora Neale Hurston, Alice Walker, Natalie Baszile, and Audre Lorde to musicians, Jill Scott, Ms. Lauryn Hill, Erykah Badu, India Arie, Abbey Lincoln, and Nina Simone, we will analyze how these writers/artists used their pens and musical voices to assert social and political freedom. As both text and performance, prose and poetry, literature and music, the novels and songs of these writers and artists offer excellent resources for our investigation of the literary and musical performance of the black woman writer. In this course, we will explore particular pieces of literature from Audre Lorde, Alice Walker, Sonia Sanchez, Ntozake Shange, Zora Neale Hurston, and Natalie Baszile that effectively mark the presence of black writers and poets from the twentieth century to present times. Juxtaposing spirituals, blues, and jazz with these works, we will also examine the intersections of literature and music in Shange’s and Angelou’s works as sound and text provide a critical framework through which we examine the breadth of the African American literary canon.
