Bad Girls: Agency, Revenge, and Redemption in Contemporary Drama
e Interdisciplinary Journal of Popular Culture and Pedagogy Bad Girls: Agency, Revenge, and Redemption in Contemporary Drama Courtney Watson, Ph.D. Radford University Roanoke, Virginia, United States [email protected] ABSTRACT Cultural movements including #TimesUp and #MeToo have contributed momentum to the demand for and development of smart, justified female criminal characters in contemporary television drama. These women are representations of shifting power dynamics, and they possess agency as they channel their desires and fury into success, redemption, and revenge. Building on works including Gillian Flynn’s Gone Girl and Netflix’s Orange is the New Black, dramas produced since 2016—including The Handmaid’s Tale, Ozark, and Killing Eve—have featured the rise of women who use rule-breaking, rebellion, and crime to enact positive change. Keywords: #TimesUp, #MeToo, crime, television, drama, power, Margaret Atwood, revenge, Gone Girl, Orange is the New Black, The Handmaid’s Tale, Ozark, Killing Eve Dialogue: The Interdisciplinary Journal of Popular Culture and Pedagogy 37 Watson From the recent popularity of the anti-heroine in novels and films like Gone Girl to the treatment of complicit women and crime-as-rebellion in Hulu’s adaptation of The Handmaid’s Tale to the cultural watershed moments of the #TimesUp and #MeToo movements, there has been a groundswell of support for women seeking justice both within and outside the law. Behavior that once may have been dismissed as madness or instability—Beyoncé laughing wildly while swinging a baseball bat in her revenge-fantasy music video “Hold Up” in the wake of Jay-Z’s indiscretions comes to mind—can be examined with new understanding. -

Convent Slave Laundries? Magdalen Asylums in Australia
Convent slave laundries? Magdalen asylums in Australia James Franklin* A staple of extreme Protestant propaganda in the first half of the twentieth century was the accusation of ‘convent slave laundries’. Anti-Catholic organs like The Watchman and The Rock regularly alleged extremely harsh conditions in Roman Catholic convent laundries and reported stories of abductions into them and escapes from them.1 In Ireland, the scandal of Magdalen laundries has been the subject of extensive official inquiries.2 Allegations of widespread near-slave conditions and harsh punishments turned out to be substantially true.3 The Irish state has apologized,4 memoirs have been written, compensation paid, a movie made.5 Something similar occurred in England.6 1 ‘Attack on convents’, Argus 21/1/1907, http://trove.nla.gov.au/ndp/del/article/10610696; ‘Abbotsford convent again: another girl abducted’, The Watchman 22/7/1915, http:// trove.nla.gov.au/ndp/del/article/111806210; ‘Protestant Federation: Why it is needed: Charge of slavery in convents’, Maitland Daily Mercury 23/4/1921, http://trove.nla.gov. au/ndp/del/article/123726627; ‘Founder of “The Rock” at U.P.A. rally’, Northern Star 2/4/1947, http://trove.nla.gov.au/ndp/del/article/99154812. 2 Commission to Inquire into Child Abuse (Ireland, 2009), ch. 18, http://www. childabusecommission.ie/rpt/pdfs/CICA-VOL3-18.pdf; Report of the Inter-Departmental Committee to establish the facts of State involvement with the Magdalen Laundries (McAleese Report, 2013), http://www.justice.ie/en/ JELR/Pages/MagdalenRpt2013; summary at http://www.theguardian.com/world/2013/feb/05/magdalene-laundries-ireland-state- guilt 3 J.M. -

Computer Based Art 2 Computer Based Art 3
1 Computer based art 2 Computer based art 3 Computer based art 4 Computer based art ??5 Buzzanca vs Buzzanca6 7 9 L’arte contemporanea (quale sia la data d’inizio che le volessimo attribuire) è stata caratterizzata, lo si è già accennato, dalla adozione di materiali di espressione artistica i più disparati possibili. La scelta di utilizzare il computer per esprimere il fare artistico, per sviluppare un linguaggio della manifestazione artistica diviene strettamente connesso • al sistema operativo, • all’applicazione, • alla pagina definita dal codice ed • alle teorie che del computer prendono in considerazione gli aspetti logici, simbolici; E’ possibile attivare sul computer, in maniera chiara e fortemente innovativa, una rappresentazione del proprio agire artistico. La vera innovazione, sappiamo bene, non consiste certo nella tastiera più o meno user friendly ma nella capacità di usare il mezzo informatico alla stessa stregua dei più disparati materiali presi a base nelle rappresentazioni dell’arte contemporanea. 13 14 15 16 17 Quali possono essere, allora, le strategie per l'archiviazione e, principalmente, per la conservazione delle arti digitali e di altre pratiche artistiche contemporanee di natura effimera o variabile e comunque strettamente dipendente da un medium la cui sopravvivenza è abbondantemente messa in crisi dagli stessi assunti metodologici della tecnologia adottata? Trovo in questo senso diagrammatica, esulando solo per un attimo dalle arti figurative (che includono figurazione e rappresentazione comunque iconica) la composizione musicale Helicopter String Quartet di Karlheinz Stockhausen che prevede che i quattro esecutori siano ciascuno su un differente elicottero ed eseguano sincronicamente l’esecuzione essendo tra loro collegati mediante apparecchi di registrazione e trasmissione coordinati da terra dal regista o meglio ancora dal direttore tecnologico dell’orchestra. -
Disciplining the Transgendered: Brandon Teena, Public Representation, and Nonnativity
"Western ,Journal of Communication, 64(2) (Spring 2000),165-189 Disciplining the Transgendered: Brandon Teena, Public Representation, and Nonnativity John Mo Sloop "How can we have a discussion of how much sex and gender diversity actually exists in society, when an the mechanisw..s of legal and extralegal repression render our lives invisible?" (Feinberg 102). "P.e-enviilioning rhetoric as a constructor of gender rather than as constructed by gender is an essential step toward ... liberation" (Condit 110). HE CORE OF THE STORY of Brandon Teena is fascinating enough, and T emotional enough, that most people remember its outline with very little prompting. This story was retold repeatedly and widely, in local newspapers, as well as in The Village Voice and Playboy. It has been the subject of a true crime book, multiple web sites, a play, a documentary film (The Brandon Teena Story), a feature film (Boys Don't Cry), and the first on-line Guggenheim art project,! The bare bones of the story, as recounted through mass mediated outlets, go something like this: Bran don Teena (born Teena Brandon)2 was a 21 year old woman who moved from Lincoln, Nebraska, where she had been "living as a man," to the smaller town of Falls City, Nebraska in late 199303 'While Brandon's move was prompted by a number of brushes with the law based on his tendency to forge checks and use credit cards without permission, it was also a move that allowed Brandon a fresh start with a male identity in a community where he had no history as a woman.
