  • 2. Case Study: Anime Music Videos
    2. CASE STUDY: ANIME MUSIC VIDEOS Dana Milstein When on 1 August 1981 at 12:01 a.m. the Buggles’ ‘Video Killed the Radio Star’ aired as MTV’s first music video, its lyrics parodied the very media pre- senting it: ‘We can’t rewind, we’ve gone too far, . put the blame on VTR.’ Influenced by J. G. Ballard’s 1960 short story ‘The Sound Sweep’, Trevor Horn’s song voiced anxiety over the dystopian, artificial world developing as a result of modern technology. Ballard’s story described a world in which natu- rally audible sound, particularly song, is considered to be noise pollution; a sound sweep removes this acoustic noise on a daily basis while radios broad- cast a silent, rescored version of music using a richer, ultrasonic orchestra that subconsciously produces positive feelings in its listeners. Ballard was particu- larly criticising technology’s attempt to manipulate the human voice, by con- tending that the voice as a natural musical instrument can only be generated by ‘non-mechanical means which the neruophonic engineer could never hope, or bother, to duplicate’ (Ballard 2006: 150). Similarly, Horn professed anxiety over a world in which VTRs (video tape recorders) replace real-time radio music with simulacra of those performances. VTRs allowed networks to replay shows, to cater to different time zones, and to rerecord over material. Indeed, the first VTR broadcast occurred on 25 October 1956, when a recording of guest singer Dorothy Collins made the previous night was broadcast ‘live’ on the Jonathan Winters Show. The business of keeping audiences hooked 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, promoted the concept of quantity over quality: yes- terday’s information was irrelevant and could be permanently erased after serving its money-making purpose.

Rowling probably isn't going to write any more Harry Potter books. That doesn't mean there won't be any more. It just means they won't be written by J.K. Rowling. Instead they'll be written by people like Racheline Maltese. Maltese is 38. She's an actor and a professional writer — journalism, cultural criticism, fiction, poetry. She describes herself as queer. She lives in New York City. She's a fan of Harry Potter. Sometimes she writes stories about Harry and the other characters from the Potterverse and posts them online for free. "For me, it's sort of like an acting or improvisation exercise," Maltese says. "You have known characters. You apply a set of given circumstances to them. Then you wait and see what happens." (See a Harry Potter primer.) Maltese is a writer of fan fiction: stories and novels that make use of the characters and settings from other people's professional creative work. Fan fiction is what literature might look like if it were reinvented from scratch after a nuclear apocalypse by a band of brilliant pop-culture junkies trapped in a sealed bunker. They don't do it for money. That's not what it's about. The writers write it and put it up online just for the satisfaction. They're fans, but they're not silent, couchbound consumers of media.

  • Anime in America, Disney in Japan: the Global Exchange of Popular Media Visualized Through Disney’S “Stitch”
    Anime in America, Disney in Japan: The Global Exchange of Popular Media Visualized through Disney’s “Stitch” Nicolette Lucinda Pisha Asheville, North Carolina Bachelor of Arts, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, 2008 A Thesis presented to the Graduate Faculty of the College^oEWilliam and Mary in Candidacy for the Degree of Master of Arts American Studies Program The College of William and Mary January, 2010 APPROVAL PAGE This Thesis is submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts NicoletteAucinda Pisha Approved ®y the £r, 2009 Associate Professor Arthur Knight, American Studies and English The College of William and Mary,, Visiting Assistant Professor Timothy Barnard, American Studies The College of William and Mary Assistant Professor Hiroshi Kitamura, History The College of William and Mary ABSTRACT PAGE My thesis examines the complexities of Disney’s Stitch character, a space alien that appeals to both American and Japanese audiences. The substitutive theory of Americanization is often associated with the Disney Company’s global expansion; however, my work looks at this idea as multifaceted. By focusing on the Disney Company’s relationship with the Japanese consumer market, I am able to provide evidence of instances when influence from the local Japanese culture appears in both Disney animation and products. For example, Stitch contains many of the same physical characteristics found in both Japanese anime and manga characters, and a small shop selling local Japanese crafts is located inside the Tokyo Disneyland theme park. I completed onsite research at Tokyo Disneyland and learned about city life in Tokyo.

  • From Readymade to 'Meta²'
    From Readymade to ‘Meta²’ Metareference in Appropriation Art Katharina Bantleon Throughout the history of art, artworks have made reference to preceding works of art. These instances of art hinting at, or invoking other art are inherently self- referential. However, against the backdrop of conceptual notions induced by Marcel Duchamp in the 1910s, the second half of the 20th century saw an undis- putable increase in strategic, open, undisguised ‘borrowing’ and reworking of ex- isting artworks and visual culture at large which is commonly referred to as ‘appropriation’. This contribution discusses appropriationist modes of artistic pro- duction which are inherently and metareferentially concerned with questions pertaining to the general nature of ‘art’, authorship and originality as an indicator of an ongoing metareferential turn in the visual arts. 1. Introduction In view of the fact that – virtually since their beginnings – the visual arts have applied a variety of modes by which artworks establish ref- erences to their antecedents, the generalizing remark that all art is es- sentially ‘about’ art has practically become commonplace (cf., for in- stance, Lipman/Marshall 1978: 6f., Steinberg 1978: 8, Kloss 1985: 27, Silk 1995: 10). There are a plethora of terms designating various prac- tices of alluding to, or directly quoting, pre-existing art; among them, to mention but a few, are referencing, emulating, paraphrasing, bor- rowing, reusing, reworking, acquiring, copying, duplicating, reproduc- ing, replicating, confiscating, purloining, plagiarizing or even stealing. The reasons and motives for applying such strategies are likewise manifold, ranging from, for example, the art student’s aim to learn and practise certain styles or techniques, via the dissemination of original artworks through reproductive printmaking in the tradition of Renais- sance engravers and print artists, to paying homage to, or humorously and/or critically commenting on, the work of fellow artists.

  • Volume 9, Issue 2, August 2012
    Volume 9, Issue 2, August 2012 TOLERANCE IS LAW: REMIXING HOMAGE, PARODYING PLAGIARISM Mathias Klang & Jan Nolin* Abstract Three centuries have passed since copyright law was developed to stimulate creativity and promote learning. The fundamental principles still apply, despite radical developments in the technology of production and distribution of cultural material. In particular the last decades’ developments and adoption of ICTs have drastically lowered barriers, which previously prevented entry into the production and distribution side of the cultural marketplace, and led to a widening of the base at which cultural production occurs and is disseminated. Additionally, digitalisation has made it economically and technically feasible for users to appropriate and manipulate earlier works as method of production. The renegotiation of barriers and the increasing number of creators who publish their works has led to an increase in copyright violations and a pressure on copyright legislation. Many of these potential violations are tolerated, in some cases have become common practice, and created social norms. Others have not been so fortunate and the law has been rigidly enforced. This arbitrary application decreases the predictability of law and creates a situation where creation relies on the tolerance of the other copyright holders. This article analyses different cases of reuse that test the boundaries of copyright. Some of these are tolerated, others not. When regulation fails to capture the rich variation of creative reuse, it becomes difficult to predict which works will be tolerated. The analysis suggests that as copyright becomes prohibitive, social norms, power and the values of the copyright holder dominate and not law.

  • Everything Is a Remix: Implications for Graduate Education
    THE CULT OF ORIGINALITY Travel back twenty millennia. You dwell in what is now southern France, and you have just entered a cave with the intention of painting an equine on its walls. You are not the first—your predecessors have been painting equines on these walls for years, decades, perhaps centuries. Do you avert your eyes and create your equine purely from memory or imagination; or do you study the walls, take a tail from here, a mane from there, a topline from somewhere else, and create an image of an equine at once borrowed and new. 1. A Parlor Game The redactors of the Book of Genesis rewrote not only one other, but also prior near Eastern creation myths. Milton rewrote the Book of Genesis in Paradise Lost, and Mary Shelley rewrote Paradise Lost in Frankenstein (whose creature learns English and history from Milton’s poem). Melville, too, rewrote Paradise Lost, mixing it in Moby-Dick not only with the myth of Prometheus, as Shelley had done, but also with Shakespeare, Emerson, and the Narrative of the Most Extraordinary and Distressing Shipwreck of the Whale-Ship Essex, to cite just a few of Melville’s influences and sources. Pauline Hopkins borrowed the Arctic trope that closes Frankenstein for the conclusion of her canonical romance of slavery and freedom, Contending Forces; and Philip Roth borrowed the invocation that opens Moby-Dick— “Call Me Ishmael”—to open The Great American Novel—“Call Me Smitty.” Shakespeare pillaged history and literature for the plots of his plays, and Dante impressed Virgil into service for the Divine Comedy.
