Abstract When Netflix launched in April 1998, Internet video was in its infancy. Eighteen years later, Netflix has developed into the first truly global Internet TV network. Many books have been written about the five broadcast networks – NBC, CBS, ABC, Fox, and the CW – and many about the major cable networks – HBO, CNN, MTV, Nickelodeon, just to name a few – and this is the fitting time to undertake a detailed analysis of how Netflix, as the preeminent Internet TV networks, has come to be. This book, then, combines historical, industrial, and textual analysis to investigate, contextualize, and historicize Netflix's development as an Internet TV network. The book is split into four chapters. The first explores the ways in which Netflix's development during its early years a DVD-by-mail company – 1998-2007, a period I am calling "Netflix as Rental Company" – lay the foundations for the company's future iterations and successes. During this period, Netflix adapted DVD distribution to the Internet, revolutionizing the way viewers receive, watch, and choose content, and built a brand reputation on consumer-centric innovation.

  • New Directions in Figurative Painting at Whitechapel Gallery Radical Figures

    New Directions in Figurative Painting at Whitechapel Gallery Radical Figures

    New directions in figurative painting at Whitechapel Gallery Radical Figures: Painting in the New Millennium 6 February – 10 May 2020 Galleries 1, 8 & 9 Radical Figures: Painting in the New Millennium brings together a new generation of artists who represent the body in radical ways to tell stories and explore vital social concerns. Presenting for the first time this new direction in painting, the exhibition features ten painters at the heart of this zeitgeist: Michael Armitage, Cecily Brown, Nicole Eisenman, Sanya Kantarovsky, Tala Madani, Ryan Mosley, Christina Quarles, Daniel Richter, Dana Schutz and Tschbalala Self. Painting had its last big hurrah in the 1980s when the stock market boom fuelled the brash brushwork and swagger of Neo-Expressionism. Leading critics were quick to pronounce its death. Through 40 canvases created over the last two decades, Whitechapel Gallery’s spring 2020 exhibition surveys the renewed interest in expressive and experimental modes of figuration among painters who have come to prominence since 2000. The artists explore contemporary subjects including gender and sexuality, society and politics, race and body image. Pushing the notion of what figurative painting can be, the bodies they depict may be fragmented, morphed, merged and remade but never completely cohesive. They may also be fluid and non-gendered; drawn from news stories; represented by animals; or simply formed from the paint itself. Embodying the painterly gesture to critique from within or broaden the lineage of a style long associated with canonical Eurocentric male painters, each artist references and creates work in dialogue with 19th and 20th- century painters including Victor Eugene Delacroix (1798–1863), Paul Gauguin (1848–1903), Willem de Kooning (1904–1997) and Maria Lassnig (1919–2014).
  • Keeping Faith with the Student-Athlete, a Solid Start and a New Beginning for a New Century

    Keeping Faith with the Student-Athlete, a Solid Start and a New Beginning for a New Century

    August 1999 In light of recent events in intercollegiate athletics, it seems particularly timely to offer this Internet version of the combined reports of the Knight Commission on Intercollegiate Athletics. Together with an Introduction, the combined reports detail the work and recommendations of a blue-ribbon panel convened in 1989 to recommend reforms in the governance of intercollegiate athletics. Three reports, published in 1991, 1992 and 1993, were bound in a print volume summarizing the recommendations as of September 1993. The reports were titled Keeping Faith with the Student-Athlete, A Solid Start and A New Beginning for a New Century. Knight Foundation dissolved the Commission in 1996, but not before the National Collegiate Athletic Association drastically overhauled its governance based on a structure “lifted chapter and verse,” according to a New York Times editorial, from the Commission's recommendations. 1 Introduction By Creed C. Black, President; CEO (1988-1998) In 1989, as a decade of highly visible scandals in college sports drew to a close, the trustees of the John S. and James L. Knight Foundation (then known as Knight Foundation) were concerned that athletics abuses threatened the very integrity of higher education. In October of that year, they created a commission on Intercollegiate Athletics and directed it to propose a reform agenda for college sports. As the trustees debated the wisdom of establishing such a commission and the many reasons advanced for doing so, one of them asked me, “What’s the down side of this?” “Worst case,” I responded, “is that we could spend two years and $2 million and wind up with nothing to show of it.” As it turned out, the time ultimately became more than three years and the cost $3 million.

    Elsagate” Phenomenon: Disturbing Children’S Youtube Content and New Frontiers in Children’S Culture

    Selected Papers of #AoIR2019: The 20th Annual Conference of the Association of Internet Researchers Brisbane, Australia / 2-5 October 2019 EXAMINING THE “ELSAGATE” PHENOMENON: DISTURBING CHILDREN’S YOUTUBE CONTENT AND NEW FRONTIERS IN CHILDREN’S CULTURE Jessica Balanzategui Swinburne University of Technology Contemporary children are turning to online video streaming as an “alternative for TV” (Ha 2018, 1) in increasing numbers (see Australian Communications and Media Authority 2017, 20-22). In addition, US-based global video streaming platforms, primarily YouTube and Netflix, are becoming “more influential in screen production ecologies” when it comes to children’s content (Potter 2017a, 22). Yet, as increasing numbers of children consume much of their video content outside of the legacy media spaces of film and television, serious concerns are being raised in policy, advocacy (Centre for Digital Democracy, 2018), and journalistic (Bridle, 2017) discussions around the globe because many new children’s video streaming genres are not “child-appropriate” according to extant definitions and guidelines, such as the internationally endorsed Children’s Television Charter. Alarms have been raised in relation to new genres on YouTube in particular. For instance, in an influential journalistic exposé, James Bridle (2017) argues that YouTube content seemingly aimed at child-viewers is tantamount to “a kind of infrastructural violence” against children’s wellbeing, a point echoed in many other recent long-form journalistic investigations (see for instance Orphanides 2018). Public concerns about the strange approach to children’s content exhibited by various YouTube genres have become so prevalent that the neologism “Elsagate” is now commonly used in media reportage to describe the scandal.
  • Dana Schutz Painting of Emmett Till, Titled Open Casket

    Dana Schutz Painting of Emmett Till, Titled Open Casket

    Dana Shutz’s Painting of Emmett Till Jay Miller Warren Wilson College One of the most exciting things about working in aesthetics and philosophy of art is that the pursuit of questions about art and beauty allows us, and sometimes forces us, into other fields of inquiry—to the ethical, the political, the metaphysical, the scientific, and so on. We are, by nature if not necessity, interdisciplinary. We enjoy a special kind of intellectual freedom to talk about nearly anything. That doesn’t always mean, however, that we should. I’ve recently been thinking about the Dana Schutz painting of Emmett Till, titled Open Casket. Like many of us, I was drawn to the complex interrelation of aesthetics, politics, and ethics that gave rise to the now infamous controversy that erupted when the painting was featured at the 2017 Whitney Biennial. The painting, a medium-large,1 semi-abstract depiction of Till’s disfigured visage facing upward in an open funeral casket, is based on documentary photographs taken after the gruesome 1955 lynching of the 14 year-old boy in rural Mississippi, wrongly accused of flirting with a white woman in a grocery store. The unavoidable question that this high-profile case raises has to do with a certain kind of normative relation between the image, the painting, and the artist. And this question—call it The Question—struck me as a profoundly philosophical question, one especially well-suited for the philosophy of art. Certainly, there are plenty of straightforward aesthetic critiques that can be made about the painting. We might say, for example, that the playfulness of its gestural brushstrokes belie the gravity of its subject matter.
