Author‘s signature Acknowledgements There are many people, who would deserve my thanks for this work being completed, but I am bound to omit someone unintentionally, for which I deeply apologise in advance. My thanks naturally goes to my family, with whom I used to watch Star Trek every day, for their eternal support and understanding; to my friends, namely and especially to Vítězslav Mareš for proofreading and immense help with the historical background, Miroslav Pilař for proofreading, Viktor Dvořák for suggestions, all the classmates and friends for support and/or suggestions, especially Lenka Pokorná, Kristina Alešová, Petra Grünwaldová, Melanie King, Tereza Pavlíková and Blanka Šustrová for enthusiasm and cheering. I want to thank to all the creators of ―Memory Alpha‖, a wiki-based web-page, which contains truly encyclopaedic information about Star Trek and from which I drew almost all the quantifiable data like numbers of the episodes and their air dates. I also want to thank to Christina M. Luckings for her page of ST transcripts, which was a great help. A huge, sincere thank you goes to Jeff A. Smith, my supervisor, and an endless source of useful materials, suggestions and ideas, which shaped this thesis, and were the primary cause that it was written at all.

After the class ended, Satory worked with two graphic design students to refine the materials gathered. The CD-Rom was released this fall after nearly eighteen months in production. The project grew out of Satory’s desire to explore how technology and art intersect, and to Dean’s educate both students and the public on those intersections.

THE GENE RODDENBERRY LEGACY It’s no surprise to the millions of Star Trek fans across the globe that the inspirational and positive message of hope for the social condition of humanity in the future is as relevant today (if not more so) as when it was first presented in The Original Series. Our society owes a huge debt of gratitude to the Great Bird of the Galaxy, Gene Roddenberry. We’re not sure even Gene could have foreseen the profound impact his hope and vision would have on untold generations to come. In a world increasingly fractured by political, economic, ethnic and social divisions, the hope for a united and benevolent society is the beautiful force that binds and drives all good people across the globe. What Star Trek did, by allegory and metaphor, was expose the hatreds, divisiveness, hypocrisies and weaknesses that have plagued civilized peoples (and aliens) for untold millennia. Yet those failings of human nature can be overcome, and peace and unity can prevail. That will be our future, one we can be grateful to give to our heirs. This is Gene Roddenberry’s vision, and his legacy. So when we see thousands of fans gathered together to celebrate this gift that the Great Bird bequeathed to us, we smile with no small degree of grateful admiration for the Star Trek fan community. In a world rushing past us at warp speed, where society has increasingly grown fractional and virtual, where massive digital social networks have risen on the ashes of the old media paradigms, we are confident that the original social network: the gathering together of the tribes, the fan “convention,” retains a vibrant relevance ever more important today in this ever more isolating world.

  • Biography ANTHONY MONTGOMERY Born and Raised in Indianapolis
    Biography ANTHONY MONTGOMERY Born and raised in Indianapolis, Indiana, Anthony Montgomery received a B.S. in Performance Theatre and Drama from Ball State University in Muncie, Indiana. Early in his career, Anthony guest starred on such shows as J.A.G., Charmed, Frasier and the Showtime original series, Resurrection Blvd. Anthony got his “big break” with a recurring role as George Auston on the WB television series, Popular. In 2001, Anthony landed a series-regular role on Star Trek: Enterprise as Ensign Travis Mayweather. For the next four years, Anthony piloted Enterprise’s NXO1 into many adventures and into the hearts of loyal Star Trek fans around the world. Star Trek: Enterprise ended in 2005 and Anthony was with the series until the very end.

This study focuses on the role of the fanfare from The Original Series title theme in foregrounding, concealing, or initiating Trek’s ideological tensions. By analyzing how the fanfare is complicit in Trek’s narrative and philosophical efforts—that is, its part in scoring a futuristic utopia— I uncover continuities and discontinuities within the franchise’s fifty years of production. Star Trek has become one of the largest brands of the twenty-first century: thirteen films, six television series, interactive concert performances, and thousands of fan creations. The contributions of the fanfare, a near-constant presence, are both lacking in study and vital to a more nuanced history of Trek’s growth.
