Blais, 2009 Université de Montréal Faculté des études supérieures Ce mémoire intitulé : Le rap comme lieu : Ethnographie d’artistes de Montréal. présenté par Laurent K. Blais a été évalué par un jury composé des personnes suivantes : Dominique Meunier _________________________________________________ président-rapporteur Line Grenier _________________________________________________ directeur (ou directrice) de recherche Charity March _________________________________________________ membre du jury iii Sommaire La proposition sur laquelle je fais reposer mon analyse est que le rap montréalais est plus qu’un genre musical, mais un lieu qui est le résultat changeant de l’intersection de forces, d’interactions sociales, ce que Doreen Massey (1993 et 2005) appelle des «trajectoires». Pour elle, un lieu se construit continuellement, à la fois dans le temps et dans l’espace, par l’interaction simultanée, à plusieurs niveaux, de ces «stories-so-far» (Massey, 2005). Mon objectif est de circonscrire quelques-unes des «trajectoires» qui composent le rap à Montréal, et d’identifier celles qui semblent être les plus pertinentes. Pour ce faire, j’ai effectué une filature de trois groupes/artistes faisant du rap à Montréal. En suivant ces artistes dans leurs activités professionnelles sur une période de quatre mois, je suis entré en contact avec des acteurs humains (journalistes, programmateurs de festivals, agents d’artistes, fans) et non-humains (salles de spectacles, studio, locaux de répétition, boutiques restaurants, stations de métro). Ce sont leurs interactions qui forment les trajectoires qui recomposent continuellement le rap comme lieu. Mots-clés : Musique populaire, ethnographie, rap, Montréal, trajectoires. iv Abstract The research proposition that guides my thesis is that rap in Montreal is more than a musical genre, it can best be understood as a place. The (re)definition of rap-as-place is the product of intersecting lines of force and social relations which Doreen Massey (1993, 2005) calls trajectories. According to the feminist geographer, place is constantly constructed, both in time and in space, by the simultnaeous interactions, at different levels, of «stories-so-far» (Massey, 2005). In this thesis, I identify and discuss three of the most prominent and pertinent «trajectories» that constitute rap in Montreal. I have conducted ethnographic work that consisted mainly in the shadowing of three rap groups/artists in Montreal. For a period of four months I have accompanied and followed these artists through a wide range of professional activities (media interviews, live performances, studio recording sessions, rehearsals). Through this process, I have met and dealt with the human (journalists, festival programmers, agents, fans) and non-human (venues, recording and practice studios, shop restaurants, métro stations) actors that inform both their practice and the music they make. It is their interactions that shape and (re)compose rap as a place. Keywords : Popular music, ethnography, rap, trajectories, place, Montreal. v Table des matières SOMMAIRE...............................................................................................................................................III ABSTRACT..............................................................................................................................................

  • Activity Report 2014-15
    ACTIVITY REPORT 2014-15 10TH ANNIVERSARY PROJECT ELAN celebrated its 10th anniversary in 2014 and received project funding from the Government of Canada through the Department of Canadian Heritage for a number of special activities. The first was to feature trailblazers in building Quebec’s current dynamic English- language arts community from the sparsely populated, marginal scene of the 1970s and 80s. Three panel discussions were presented in collaboration with POP Montreal and Expozine: The Montreal Formula: Thinking outside the box for survival in Montreal arts (POP Montreal) with Albert Nerenberg (host; filmmaker and laughologist), Murray Lightburn (the Dears), Krista Muir (Lederhosen Lucil), and visual artist J.C. Little; Literary Legacies: A Montreal Story (POP Montreal) with host Katia Grubisic (writer and translator), Linda Leith, founder of Blue Metropolis Foundation, and Marianne Ackerman, founder of the bilingual theatre company Theatre 1774 and Rover Arts; and Montreal Blooming: From Backwater to Music Hotbed (Expozine) with Howard Bilerman (legendary Montreal producer, former drummer for Arcade Fire), Kevin Komoda (Rational Youth), Ryhna Thompson (Envision Management), and musician Molly Sweeney. For our 10th anniversary year, ELAN co-produced Schmoozers with partners from each of the major artistic disciplines: April in collaboration with the Quebec Writers' Federation; June in collaboration with the St-Ambroise Montreal International Fringe Festival; October in collaboration with the Montreal Film Group; and December at McGill's Schulich School of Music, with a focus on students. Eastern Bloc was selected as the venue for ELAN's 10th anniversary event because it is a well- equipped visual and media arts centre. A photo retrospective of ELAN's 10-year history was projected on one wall while the Wonderwall, created at three stations where guests were photographed as they arrived, was projected on another.

  • The Creative Economy and the English Speaking Communities in Quebec
    The Creative Economy and the English Speaking Communities in Quebec REPORT SUBMITTED TO INDUSTRY CANADA BY TRACY ZHANG, PH.D.(SIMONE DE BEAUVOIR INSTITUTE, CONCORDIA UNIVERSITY), WITH AN ANNOTATED BIBLIOGRAPHY PREPARED BY AURELIA ROMAN, M.A. ON BEHALF OF THE QUEBEC ENGLISH - SPEAKING COMMUNITIES RESEARCH NETWORK (QUESCREN) QUESCREN is a joint initiative of the Canadian Institute for Research on Linguistic Minorities and Concordia University's School of Extended Learning MONTREAL, 2012-03-31 The Creative Economy and English-speaking Communities in Quebec EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The Creative Economy and English-Speaking Communities in Quebec presents preliminary research results based on a focus group, private key informant interviews, and bibliographical research. It demonstrates that the concepts of the creative economy are useful in charting cultural and economic development for the English-speaking communities in Quebec (ESCQ). The English-speaking population in Quebec forms the largest provincial Official Language Minority Community in Canada. In recent decades, the composition of this population has become increasingly complex and multicultural. Parallel to this demographic shift, the influence of English-language Quebec culture has also evolved. English-speakers are said to have a high participation rate in the arts, culture and heritage sectors. In this context, organizations from these sectors are increasingly involved in supporting the socioeconomic development of the ESCQ. This report reflects growing concerns on the part of representatives of some of these organizations who participated in the study over how to apply the creative economy theory to generate effective models of cultural-economic development for the ESCQ. Due to the preliminary nature of the research involved in this study, coupled with the range of understandings about the creative economy reflected in the participants' comments and our annotated bibliography, the report does not recommend a single definition of "creative economy".
