Viking Ventures Student Newspaper Cape Henlopen High School Volume 42 No. 4 Viking Ventures Student Newspaper December 2010 Viking by Anonymous What’s Inside? What’s Inside? Happy Non-Specific Holiday (Cont.) Page 2: New Teachers ~Grace Hetfield, ‘13 Page 10: Showcase Update The air is rich with the aroma of gingerbread and hot cocoa. It’s that time of year again: a time to celebrate kindness and/or materialism depending on one’s Christmas traditions. However, not everyone cel- ebrates Christmas. While many secular families have adopted the holiday, Christmas is a traditionally Christian holiday. Several groups, both religious and opposed to religion, opt not to deck the halls with bells and holly. Careful measures are made to not offend Page 3: Student Contributions anyone with the use of the non-specific phrase “happy holidays” but Christmas seems Page 11: TSA Leaders to overshadow all these other non-specific holidays. The “holiday” decorations that adorn every public place and even Cape Henlopen High School (the tree in the rotunda or the motifs decorating the school website, for example) are blatantly Christmas- themed with their use of red and green colors, Santa Claus, and other Christmas em- blems. Even the use of religious imagery such as nativity scenes is on display at some public places. Is it okay that Christmas seems to overshadow other religious holidays of the season? Or is it offensive to shove Christmas spirit in the faces of those who will Page 4: NYC Mosque not be decorating trees this holiday season? Page 12: Looking For Alaska Sophomore Brittney Robinson’s opinion is no. “I know atheists who celebrate Christmas. I know Jewish people who celebrate Christmas. Not everyone celebrates the religious aspects of the holiday.” Sophomore Myranda Gransbury agrees. “My opinion now is that Christmas now is not about religion. It’s about Santa and presents.” My- randa voices passionately, anchoring herself to the cafeteria table with a curled fist. Their views may be biased, as they both celebrate Christmas, but not all Christmas celebrators agree that Christmas cheer is not offensive to some groups of people. It may Page 5: Rocketry Club be offensive because, “we get all our holidays off...why can’t they get their holidays Page 13: Punk Rock off, too?” says 2013 graduate Katelyn Gebbia about the winter [continued on pg. 13] break.

  • Nightlight: Tradition and Change in a Local Music Scene
    NIGHTLIGHT: TRADITION AND CHANGE IN A LOCAL MUSIC SCENE Aaron Smithers A thesis submitted to the faculty of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in the Curriculum of Folklore. Chapel Hill 2018 Approved by: Glenn Hinson Patricia Sawin Michael Palm ©2018 Aaron Smithers ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT Aaron Smithers: Nightlight: Tradition and Change in a Local Music Scene (Under the direction of Glenn Hinson) This thesis considers how tradition—as a dynamic process—is crucial to the development, maintenance, and dissolution of the complex networks of relations that make up local music communities. Using the concept of “scene” as a frame, this ethnographic project engages with participants in a contemporary music scene shaped by a tradition of experimentation that embraces discontinuity and celebrates change. This tradition is learned and communicated through performance and social interaction between participants connected through the Nightlight—a music venue in Chapel Hill, North Carolina. iii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Any merit of this ethnography reflects the commitment of a broad community of dedicated individuals who willingly contributed their time, thoughts, voices, and support to make this project complete. I am most grateful to my collaborators and consultants, Michele Arazano, Robert Biggers, Dave Cantwell, Grayson Currin, Lauren Ford, Anne Gomez, David Harper, Chuck Johnson, Kelly Kress, Ryan Martin, Alexis Mastromichalis, Heather McEntire, Mike Nutt, Katie O’Neil, “Crowmeat” Bob Pence, Charlie St. Clair, and Isaac Trogden, as well as all the other musicians, employees, artists, and compatriots of Nightlight whose combined efforts create the unique community that define a scene.

    A SCENE WITHOUT A NAME: INDIE CLASSICAL AND AMERICAN NEW MUSIC IN THE TWENTY-FIRST CENTURY William Robin A dissertation submitted to the faculty of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of Music. Chapel Hill 2016 Approved by: Mark Katz Andrea Bohlman Mark Evan Bonds Tim Carter Benjamin Piekut © 2016 William Robin ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT WILLIAM ROBIN: A Scene Without a Name: Indie Classical and American New Music in the Twenty-First Century (Under the direction of Mark Katz) This dissertation represents the first study of indie classical, a significant subset of new music in the twenty-first century United States. The definition of “indie classical” has been a point of controversy among musicians: I thus examine the phrase in its multiplicity, providing a framework to understand its many meanings and practices. Indie classical offers a lens through which to study the social: the web of relations through which new music is structured, comprised in a heterogeneous array of actors, from composers and performers to journalists and publicists to blog posts and music venues. This study reveals the mechanisms through which a musical movement establishes itself in American cultural life; demonstrates how intermediaries such as performers, administrators, critics, and publicists fundamentally shape artistic discourses; and offers a model for analyzing institutional identity and understanding the essential role of institutions in new music. Three chapters each consider indie classical through a different set of practices: as a young generation of musicians that constructed itself in shared institutional backgrounds and performative acts of grouping; as an identity for New Amsterdam Records that powerfully shaped the record label’s music and its dissemination; and as a collaboration between the ensemble yMusic and Duke University that sheds light on the twenty-first century status of the new-music ensemble and the composition PhD program.

  • RALEIGH-DURHAM North Carolina's Axis of Cool
    the SCENE RALEIGH-DURHAM North Carolina’s axis of cool. With its food trucks, design collectives and rehabbed downtowns, the Research Triangle — the patch of North Carolina that is home to Raleigh, Durham, Chapel Hill and 150,000 college students — seems to be yet another hipster vibe factory. It’s Silver Lake, you think, just with a few more ‘‘yes, ma’ams.’’ But then you taste the okra and sni the heirloom tomatoes. You meet an ex-vegan who’s smoking whole hogs and a church pastor who plays in a secular rock group. And speaking of music, it’s everywhere — beamed out from great college radio stations, seeping out of historic rock clubs and packaged by a growing local record industry . This is the kind of place where bands still play house shows, where a local will endorse a dingy club by telling you that, inside, it feels like you’re at a Halo of Flies show in 1988. You don’t really know what he’s talking about, but you must nd out. STEPHEN HEYMAN RALEIGH DENIM Victor Lytvinenko, 30, a former cook at Nobu in New York, and his wife Sarah, 29, who studied design at North Carolina State, began sewing selvage denim in their living room three years ago; now their jeans are on sale at Barneys for up to $300. Inside Raleigh Denim’s new workshop (and small retail space), ambient music plays over the hum of vintage sewing machines, including one from 1921 that torques hemlines in a way that makes denim geeks freak.
