  • The Greater Antilles
    PART I The Greater Antilles Jamaica: The Wages of Love chapter 1 BRANDING on tv, it looked like the others were jogging. Halfway through the Olympic 100-meter final, Usain Bolt— Jamaican hero, fastest man in the world, performing in London before eighty thousand flashbulb-popping fans— pulled away. At six-foot- five, hurtling down the tile- red track, Bolt stretched his stride in a way none of his rivals— compact, muscular men all— could match. One moment, eight Lycra- clad figures were sprinting in a pack. Then there was one: long legs churning, face calm. In Beijing four years before, he’d turned this race, as one oft-quoted account had it, into “a palette on which an emerging and transcendent talent could splash his greatness.”1 Slap- ping his chest before the line, exulting as he crossed— Bolt charmed the world with his brash joie de vivre. Now, as he pulled away, TV replays caught him glancing at the stadium clock: in Beijing, he’d entered his- tory; here, he wanted to make it. And so he did. The clock showed the time— a new Olympic record. And Jamaica’s pride, his nation’s black, yellow, and green flag draped over his broad back, grinned and danced as he circled the stadium, soaking up its warm lights’ love. For most of the few hundred million around the globe watching on TV, the scene showed what the Olympic Games, Visa-sponsored cor- porate dross aside, could still be. Here was a beautiful human, from a little nation, moving with supernal grace on the world stage.

  • 1661 Vll3d0 3H.L .LV .LNVA3'l
    1661 ·~upds 06v :l!snw 1un woN ~u-e r .A.rnw Vll3d0 3H.L .LV .LNVA3'l liV~SO Oscar Levant is known for his songs in the area of popular music, but his operas are virtually unknown. Obtaining and studying any one of his three operas should be important for establishing him as more than a popular-music composer. Levant's opera Carnival, from the 20th Century Fox movie Charlie Chan at the Opera, is especially worthy of consideration. Through careful analysis of this work, much can be learned about the style and interests of Oscar Levant. While comparisons to other composers and their works may be too extensive for this specific paper, some comparisons to Levant's own popular tunes of the same time period as Carnival may reveal remarkable similarities and/or differences. Along with an analysis of the score, observation of the opera as it is presented in the movie will provide information about the basis for its content and reveal its incorporation into the movie's plot. In addition, seeing the movie will give aural information, such as the types of instruments used. The interest in this topic stems from Oscar Levant's own books­ A Smattering of Ignorance, The Unimportance of Being Oscar, and The Memoirs of an Amnesiac. He refers to this opera in A Smattering of Ignorance. but his references to his musical acquaintances in The Memoirs of an Amnesiac may supply additional facts to help in understanding his musical style. Examining c 'arnival will contribute to showing the significance of Oscar Levant's style of composition.

  • The Mixtape: a Case Study in Emancipatory Journalism
    ABSTRACT Title of Dissertation: THE MIXTAPE: A CASE STUDY IN EMANCIPATORY JOURNALISM Jared A. Ball, Doctor of Philosophy, 2005 Directed By: Dr. Katherine McAdams Associate Professor Philip Merrill College of Journalism Associate Dean, Undergraduate Studies During the 1970s the rap music mixtape developed alongside hip-hop as an underground method of mass communication. Initially created by disc-jockeys in an era prior to popular “urban” radio and video formats, these mixtapes represented an alternative, circumventing traditional mass medium. However, as hip-hop has come under increasing corporate control within a larger consolidated media ownership environment, so too has the mixtape had to face the challenge of maintaining its autonomy. This media ownership consolidation, vertically and horizontally integrated, has facilitated further colonial control over African America and has exposed as myth notions of democratizing media in an undemocratic society. Acknowledging a colonial relationship the writer created FreeMix Radio: The Original Mixtape Radio Show where the mixtape becomes both a source of free cultural expression and an anti-colonial emancipatory journalism developed as a “Third World” response to the needs of postcolonial nation-building. This dissertation explores the contemporary colonizing effects of media consolidation, cultural industry function, and copyright ownership, concluding that the development of an underground press that recognizes the tremendous disparities in advanced technological access (the “digital divide”) appears to be the only viable alternative. The potential of the mixtape to serve as a source of emancipatory journalism is studied via a three-pronged methodological approach: 1) An explication of literature and theory related to the history of and contemporary need for resistance media, 2) an analysis of the mixtape as a potential underground mass press and 3) three focus group reactions to the mixtape as resistance media, specifically, the case study of the writer’s own FreeMix Radio: The Original Mixtape Radio Show.

  • Visual Metaphors on Album Covers: an Analysis Into Graphic Design's
    Visual Metaphors on Album Covers: An Analysis into Graphic Design’s Effectiveness at Conveying Music Genres by Vivian Le A THESIS submitted to Oregon State University Honors College in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Honors Baccalaureate of Science in Accounting and Business Information Systems (Honors Scholar) Presented May 29, 2020 Commencement June 2020 AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF Vivian Le for the degree of Honors Baccalaureate of Science in Accounting and Business Information Systems presented on May 29, 2020. Title: Visual Metaphors on Album Covers: An Analysis into Graphic Design’s Effectiveness at Conveying Music Genres. Abstract approved:_____________________________________________________ Ryann Reynolds-McIlnay The rise of digital streaming has largely impacted the way the average listener consumes music. Consequentially, while the role of album art has evolved to meet the changes in music technology, it is hard to measure the effect of digital streaming on modern album art. This research seeks to determine whether or not graphic design still plays a role in marketing information about the music, such as its genre, to the consumer. It does so through two studies: 1. A computer visual analysis that measures color dominance of an image, and 2. A mixed-design lab experiment with volunteer participants who attempt to assess the genre of a given album. Findings from the first study show that color scheme models created from album samples cannot be used to predict the genre of an album. Further findings from the second theory show that consumers pay a significant amount of attention to album covers, enough to be able to correctly assess the genre of an album most of the time.

  • Appalachian Spring Concert
    CELEBRATING THE AMERICAN LANDSCAPE: Allentown Symphony Orchestra joins with pianist Simon Mulligan and local dancers for Gershwin, Copland program Steve Siegel Special to The Morning Call It’s quite possible that no music evokes the American landscape as strongly as that of George Gershwin and Aaron Copland. Each paints with a broad brush — Copland’s widely spaced chords and vigorous rhythms conspire to create a sound as vividly American as Gershwin’s streetwise use of syncopation and jazz riffs. The Allentown Symphony Orchestra pays tribute to both home-grown composers Feb. 9 and 10 at Miller Symphony Hall. Pianist Simon Mulligan is soloist in Gershwin’s “I Got Rhythm Variations” and “Rhapsody in Blue” in a program that also features Gershwin’s colorful “American in Paris” and Copland’s beloved “Appalachian Spring Suite,” featuring dancers from the Ballet Guild of the Lehigh Valley. Allentown-area audiences might be excused for thinking that Simon Mulligan is a jazz pianist. He’s established a popular following in that genre through his frequent appearances with his trio in the Jazz Upstairs series in Symphony Hall’s Rodale Room, backed by local musicians — bassist Gene Perla and drummer Dave Willard. But Mulligan is a lot more than that. Classical fans might recall his first concert in Allentown was in fact a classical one — Mozart’s Piano Concerto No. 21, with the Allentown Symphony Orchestra on Valentine’s Day weekend in 2012. The Ballet Guild of the Lehigh Valley will perform artistic director Karen Knerr's new choreography to Aaron Copland's 'Appalachian Spring' on stage with the Allentown Symphony Orchestra.
