Thank you for coming and we look for- ward to your participation in this year’s conference. The response to this year’s theme, “Bays, Boundaries, and Borders” highlights both the breadth and relevance of applied social science in a globalized world where the solutions to many human problems transcend disciplinary boundaries and are not confned to state or regional borders. As human popula- tions continue to grow, human problems continue to increase. Applied Anthropology and other applied social and natural sciences are more relevant than ever, and this meeting should exemplify the creative ways in which we are addressing these problems. I invite you to take advantage of the sessions, workshops, videos, and events the program committee and Society’s offce have assembled. And of course, we hope you all enjoy the city of Baltimore and its environs at the northern end of the Chesapeake Bay. This year’s program brings together applied social scientists working across a broad array of contemporary issues around the world. Our hope is to stimulate the exchange of experiences and lessons learned from these efforts, and reinforce our commitment to using our knowledge and skills to address human concerns, issues, and problems. The meeting brings together academics, practitioners, activists and advocates who have many years of experience or are just beginning their careers. Our goal has been to work to create a meeting that contributes to substantive exchanges about case studies that illustrate the challenges and impacts we face in the future as we continue to build a sustainable, relevant and vibrant discipline. The 2012 meeting will be enriched by the participation of conference co-sponsors that include the Society for Medical Anthropology, The Council on Nursing and Anthropology, the Society for Political Ecology, and the Washington Asso- ciation of Professional Anthropologists. You will see that there are a number of tours we have arranged to areas in Baltimore and neighboring Annapolis and Washington, DC. Downtown Baltimore is not that large, so there is ample opportunity to explore on your own, including Baltimore’s Inner Harbor with restaurants and historic vessels such as the USS Constitution, the Walters Art Museum, and the world famous Lexington Market. I am confdent that you will enjoy this year’s conference and conference site in the city of Baltimore. Many people have been involved in helping with the various tasks necessary to make this year’s annual conference a reality. I am grateful for their collegiality, efforts, and support with the planning for this meeting over the past year. Please look over the list of people who have assisted with the program planning, and when you see any of them, let them know how much you are enjoying the conference and thank them for their efforts.

    PERFORMED IDENTITIES: HEAVY METAL MUSICIANS BETWEEN 1984 AND 1991 Bradley C. Klypchak A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY May 2007 Committee: Dr. Jeffrey A. Brown, Advisor Dr. John Makay Graduate Faculty Representative Dr. Ron E. Shields Dr. Don McQuarie © 2007 Bradley C. Klypchak All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Dr. Jeffrey A. Brown, Advisor Between 1984 and 1991, heavy metal became one of the most publicly popular and commercially successful rock music subgenres. The focus of this dissertation is to explore the following research questions: How did the subculture of heavy metal music between 1984 and 1991 evolve and what meanings can be derived from this ongoing process? How did the contextual circumstances surrounding heavy metal music during this period impact the performative choices exhibited by artists, and from a position of retrospection, what lasting significance does this particular era of heavy metal merit today? A textual analysis of metal- related materials fostered the development of themes relating to the selective choices made and performances enacted by metal artists. These themes were then considered in terms of gender, sexuality, race, and age constructions as well as the ongoing negotiations of the metal artist within multiple performative realms. Occurring at the juncture of art and commerce, heavy metal music is a purposeful construction. Metal musicians made performative choices for serving particular aims, be it fame, wealth, or art. These same individuals worked within a greater system of influence. Metal bands were the contracted employees of record labels whose own corporate aims needed to be recognized.

    Review: Roadburn Thursday 19th April 2017 By Sander van den Driesche It’s that time of the year again, the After Yellow Eyes it’s straight to the much anticipated annual pilgrimage to Main Stage to see Dark Buddha Rising Tilburg to join with many hundreds of perform with Oranssi Pazuzu as the travellers for Walter’s party at Waste of Space Orchestra, which is Roadburn. As I get off the train the another highly anticipated show, and in heat kicks me right in the face, what a this case one that won’t be played massive difference to the dull and rainy anywhere else (as far as I know). What morning I left behind in Scotland. This happened on that big stage was is glorious weather for a Roadburn phenomenal, we witnessed a near hour Festival! Bring it on! of glorious drone-infused psychedelic proggy doom. In fact, it felt a bit too early for me personally in the timing of the festival to experience such an extraordinarily mind-blowing set, but it was a remarkable collaboration and performance. I can’t wait for the Live at Roadburn release to come out (someone make it happen please!). Yellow Eyes by Niels Vinck After getting my bearings with the new venues, I enter Het Patronaat for the first of my highly anticipated performances of the festival, Yellow Eyes. But after three blistering minutes of ferocious black metal the PA system seems to disagree and we have our first “Zeal & Ardor moment” of 2018. It’s Waste of Space Orchestra by Niels Vinck not even remotely funny to see the On the same Main Stage, Earthless Roadburn crew frantically trying to played the first of their sets as figure out what went wrong, but luckily Roadburn’s artist in residence.
