It was suggested this history be completed in time for our fortieth anniversary. The following gentle- men were elected by the Society to serve on this Committee Clarence S. Ongman, Chairman, Sven Strid, Carl Iljalmar Lundquist, and Albin G. Witting. As Mr. Witting resides in Colorado it was impossible for him to take any active part in the work. Mr. Lundquist, being Secretary of the Chicago branch of the Swedish Centennial Celebration, has been un- able to work with us, so the labor has fallen upon the Chair- man and Mr. Strid. After some months Mr. Eric Blomquist, our former librarian, and Mr. Gustaf Palm, our Secretary, have been of great help. I said the labor has fallen on Strid and j^our Chairman, yes, it has been labor, but has been in- tensely interesting.

  • Media Technology and Society
    MEDIA TECHNOLOGY AND SOCIETY Media Technology and Society offers a comprehensive account of the history of communications technologies, from the telegraph to the Internet. Winston argues that the development of new media, from the telephone to computers, satellite, camcorders and CD-ROM, is the product of a constant play-off between social necessity and suppression: the unwritten ‘law’ by which new technologies are introduced into society. Winston’s fascinating account challenges the concept of a ‘revolution’ in communications technology by highlighting the long histories of such developments. The fax was introduced in 1847. The idea of television was patented in 1884. Digitalisation was demonstrated in 1938. Even the concept of the ‘web’ dates back to 1945. Winston examines why some prototypes are abandoned, and why many ‘inventions’ are created simultaneously by innovators unaware of each other’s existence, and shows how new industries develop around these inventions, providing media products for a mass audience. Challenging the popular myth of a present-day ‘Information Revolution’, Media Technology and Society is essential reading for anyone interested in the social impact of technological change. Brian Winston is Head of the School of Communication, Design and Media at the University of Westminster. He has been Dean of the College of Communications at the Pennsylvania State University, Chair of Cinema Studies at New York University and Founding Research Director of the Glasgow University Media Group. His books include Claiming the Real (1995). As a television professional, he has worked on World in Action and has an Emmy for documentary script-writing.

FISHER 151 Pages The Committee on Public Information (CPI) was the official propaganda agency of the United States during the First World War, seeking to homogenize American public opinion and spread American ideals across the globe. Through a case study of Edwin Björkman’s work among Swedish Americans, this thesis illuminates how the CPI approached its work among immigrants, engaging questions of Americanization and transnationalism. Through an analysis of the John Ericsson League of Patriotic Service and the Scandinavian Bureau—both its domestic and foreign operations—this thesis argues that Edwin Björkman and the CPI promoted cultural pluralism rather than assimilation to a dominant Anglo-American culture.

  • Cruising Log of Serafina of Maldon 2012
    Cruising Log of Serafina of Maldon 2012 This is our cruising log which runs from Jan 2012 through to October 2012 and covers our trip which had started in Grenada in Nov 2011 and finished in Annapolis, USA. Rob & Sarah Bell and their Najad 460 yacht, Serafina of Maldon. Pigeon Island a view on Marigot Bay, St Lucia Mon 2nd and Tuesday 3rd Jan Well it turned out that we had got our anchor properly dug in at last and we remained safe and sound for the two nights we were in Marigot Bay. Monday dawned grey and breezy and for the next 12 hours we got repeated blasts of what the locals cheerfully refer to as ‘Liquid Sunshine’ , in fact an excess of it. It really seems to be a speciality of this extraordinary ‘hurricane hole’ that has its own real micro climate. We went ashore in the morning and toured the few shops and restaurants etc. and admired a couple of outstandingly beautiful wooden yachts and then had a light lunch in Doolittle’s Restaurant. (The original Dr Doolittle film was shot on location here centuries ago) before returning to Serafina to watch all the comings and goings. Somehow, despite Sarah’s vigilance, we managed to miss Ko-Ko sailing in and this was despite them blasting their horn repeatedly when they saw Serafina anchored there! They got in touch though and we joined them and a number of their Norwegian friends in Mygos restaurant for another fun evening. However apart from this, somehow Marigot did not manage to endear itself to us and whilst we are glad that we made the visit to satisfy our curiosity, we would not rush back there again.

His influence was felt among Swedes despite the fact that he was of Anglo-American heritage, never visited Sweden, and never spoke a word of the Swedish language.
