  • Blssm Paper Artist Statement
    !1 of !7 Simon DeBevoise Artist Statement Prof. Maria Sonevytsky 12.12.15 blssm: An Exploration of Cuteness, Consumer Culture and PC Music blssm is an experiment in aesthetics. Tackling a genre of unlimited ambition and excess, I realized quickly that my project could not be a limp imitation of PC Music; the music mandates instead a full-fledged devotion to the “kitsch imagery, catchy hooks, synthetic colours” (Tank Magazine, AG Cook) so central to figures like AG Cook, Hannah Diamond, SOPHIE and GFOTY. I used Hannah Diamond’s “Every Night” as an aural point of reference, reinterpreting the song’s poppy chord progression and setting my tempo to an upbeat 128 bpm. Layering big, shimmering, sawtooth synths over a syncopated kick drum and bass, I created a foundation with which I could engage with the camp and consumerism typically antithetical to the underground music scene yet so integral to the PC Music label. Recreating PC Music’s visual and aural aesthetic, I aim to consider the issues of gender and sexuality at play by framing the genre within discourses on Studio Audio Art, Cyborg Feminism, Japanese Kawaii culture, consumerism, and post-irony. To best introduce the uninformed listener to PC Music (which, importantly, stands for computer music and not politically correct music), I’ve included lyrics from Hannah Diamond’s “Pink and Blue:” We look good in pink and blue You love me, maybe it's true You say, ‘Baby, how are you?’ I’m okay, how about you? DeBevoise !2 of !7 Diamond’s facile rhymes and innocent lyrics craft an image of cuteness and middle-school naivety that play into PC Music’s brand of femininity.

    RISING HYPERPOP STAR ELYOTTO RELEASES “SUGARCRASH!” FEAT. KIM PETRAS AND CURTIS WATERS (Los Angeles, CA – April 23rd, 2021) - Rising Hyperpop star ElyOtto releases a new version of his hit song “SugarCrash!” featuring pop sensation Kim Petras and on-the-rise artist/producer Curtis Waters via RCA Records. Listen HERE. ElyOtto says, “I never thought my own song could sound this good. Kim and Curtis added so much energy to it, it gives me goosebumps every time I listen.” Kim Petras says, “I heard “SugarCrash!” and, like anyone who’s ever been on TikTok, had it on repeat for a while. When ElyOtto reached out I immediately said yes, wrote the verse, and sent it in. And ElyOtto loved it. I love ElyOtto as an artist and feel really proud to be a part of this.” Elliott Platt, the 17-year-old singer, songwriter and producer from Calgary, Canada known as ElyOtto, has taken the internet by storm with his insanely catchy earworm of a song “SugarCrash!” which has reached #11 on the TikTok Viral Charts and has garnered over 8M creations. The hyperpop bop has bounced off the platform and is a streaming juggernaut with 100M streams on Spotify to date, peaked at #43 on the Spotify U.S. chart and reached No. 1 on Spotify’s U.S. Viral 50 playlist in February. ElyOtto, who has been called “the New Face of Hyperpop” by SPIN Magazine, is looking forward to releasing new music under his newly inked deal with RCA Records.

  • Sophie's World
    Sophie’s World Jostien Gaarder Reviews: More praise for the international bestseller that has become “Europe’s oddball literary sensation of the decade” (New York Newsday) “A page-turner.” —Entertainment Weekly “First, think of a beginner’s guide to philosophy, written by a schoolteacher ... Next, imagine a fantasy novel— something like a modern-day version of Through the Looking Glass. Meld these disparate genres, and what do you get? Well, what you get is an improbable international bestseller ... a runaway hit... [a] tour deforce.” —Time “Compelling.” —Los Angeles Times “Its depth of learning, its intelligence and its totally original conception give it enormous magnetic appeal ... To be fully human, and to feel our continuity with 3,000 years of philosophical inquiry, we need to put ourselves in Sophie’s world.” —Boston Sunday Globe “Involving and often humorous.” —USA Today “In the adroit hands of Jostein Gaarder, the whole sweep of three millennia of Western philosophy is rendered as lively as a gossip column ... Literary sorcery of the first rank.” —Fort Worth Star-Telegram “A comprehensive history of Western philosophy as recounted to a 14-year-old Norwegian schoolgirl... The book will serve as a first-rate introduction to anyone who never took an introductory philosophy course, and as a pleasant refresher for those who have and have forgotten most of it... [Sophie’s mother] is a marvelous comic foil.” —Newsweek “Terrifically entertaining and imaginative ... I’ll read Sophie’s World again.” — Daily Mail “What is admirable in the novel is the utter unpretentious-ness of the philosophical lessons, the plain and workmanlike prose which manages to deliver Western philosophy in accounts that are crystal clear.

Designing Women: Essentializing Femininity in AI Linguistics Abstract Since the eighties, feminists have considered technology a force capable of subverting sexism because of technology’s ability to produce unbiased logic. Most famously, Donna Haraway’s “A Cyborg Manifesto” posits that the cyborg has the inherent capability to transcend gender because of its removal from social construct and lack of loyalty to the natural world. But while humanoids and artificial intelligence have been imagined as inherently subversive to gender, current artificial intelligence perpetuates gender divides in labor and language as their programmers imbue them with traits considered “feminine.” A majority of 21st century AI and humanoids are programmed to fit emalef stereotypes as they fulfill emotional labor and perform pink-collar tasks, whether through roles as therapists, query-fillers, or companions. This paper examines four specific chat-based AI --ELIZA, XiaoIce, Sophia, and Erica-- and examines how their feminine linguistic patterns are used to maintain the illusion of emotional understanding in regards to the tasks that they perform.

  • The New Culture Industry Tracing Democratization, Cultural Pluralism, and a New ‘Stillness’ in Modern Music
    Savoy 1 The New Culture Industry Tracing democratization, cultural pluralism, and a new ‘stillness’ in modern music Augie Savoy Professor Jennifer Friedlander 9/28/20 Savoy 2 PREFACE In this country, it’s very hard for creative thought to escape capitalism. —Juan Atkins I have the impression that many of the elements that are supposed to provide access to music actually impoverish our relationship with it. —Michel Foucault As a listener, my earliest memory of music is hearing Michael Jackson’s Off the Wall on a portable CD player when I went to pre-school in Norway. Because my family had recently moved there, I had no experience speaking Norwegian and, until I figured it out, my parents thought I could listen to music to pass the time. For better or worse, it did far more than that. It started my love affair with music. On the surface, Off the Wall was straight to the point, ener- getic, and loud. As I replayed it, I realized that I could stick my head into the production and hear all the small details. The drums were rigid and robotic. The bass was relaxed and fluid. Michael Jackson’s voice was elastic, traveling across an entire emotional spectrum from tender to harsh. The production felt like a spectrum of different faces and characters. It was the storytelling and humanness of the record that made it compelling. It turned an uneventful day in pre-school, sur- rounded by kids I couldn’t understand, into a cinematic piece of art. Like Michael Jackson’s legacy, however, my relationship to music has become more complicated as I’ve gotten older.

  • Exploring the Self-Identity and Worldview of Korean International Students at American Colleges
    Is Being Korean Cosmopolitan Possible? Exploring the Self-Identity and Worldview of Korean International Students at American Colleges Ji-Su Park Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Prerequisite for Honors in Sociology April 2013 © 2013 Ji-Su Park ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Believe it or not, I have memorized the 16-digit number that I need to log into my library account while I still need to look for my school ID for the 8-digit number that I need to enter a dining hall. Yes, I wrote this thesis. Writing a senior thesis has been a journey, and this journey was possible because I had wonderful people who believed in me. My sincere thanks go to all the precious moments that these wonderful people shared with me. These moments include: having a warm cup of coffee every morning prepared by Joseph at Collins Café, eating fresh tangerines, a sweet almond meringue, chocolates and homemade cookies that my lovely friends brought to make sure I was awake, learning how to DJ from a friend as my study break, opening my mailbox and finding a poem and a card with kind words of encouragement, chatting with a friend who called me to check up on me and tell me, “You can do it.” You all know who you are. Special thanks go to Professor Bryan S. Turner who taught my first sociology course ever at Wellesley and inspired me to major in sociology. Special thanks go as well to Professor Sun-Hee Lee for her mentoring and advice on every aspect of life. Very special thanks go to my thesis advisor, Professor Joe Swingle, for his constant support, endless patience and guidance.

  • Copy of EPQ: Formal Essay
    How Queer Identities Have Progressed Within the Music Industry History of queer identity within the music industry The recent trend towards more visibility in the music industry is enigmatic of a larger trend as the pride movement gained momentum. The Stonewall Riots of 1969 marked a turning point in queer identity, demanding rights and protection against police brutality - paticularly towards gay men and trans women of colour. The Stonewall Riots launched queer identity into the public mainstream, and for the first time queer idenity was not only legalised in the UK but also visible. This started in the rock scene of the 1970s, a genre characterised by it’s defiance of the mainstream. Naturally in such a unbashidely indivalidsitic environment like rock, queer idenity flourished, although still when it reached mainstream it had to be censored behind metaphors and slights of hand. The most famous example of rock’s queer sexuality was Queen, fronted by queer icon Freddie Mercury, although the full extent of his queer idenitity within his music is often debated. One popular interpretation of Bohemian Rhapsody, Queen’s three part rock ballad, is that it’s a song about a gay or queer man coming out, being rejected, and then coming into his own – not proud in spite of their sexuality, but because of it. As comedian Guy Branum wrote in his memoir My Life As a Goddess, later posted to pitchfork in 2018, “Bohemian Rhapsody is a breakup song for your mum,”1 in an article when he links his own fraught coming out with his parents to the murder depicted in the song.
