  • Principals Involved in Lucid Plan Aren?T Done with Aurora
    This page was exported from - The Auroran Export date: Thu Sep 30 6:36:34 2021 / +0000 GMT Principals involved in Lucid plan aren?t done with Aurora By Brock Weir With Aurora Live! dead in the water, enough time has passed for heads to cool and assess the situation. But George Roche, founder of Lucid Productions, the group that brought forward the Aurora Live! festival isn't completely done with Aurora. 2014, he said, is definitely a possibility. ?I would love to [bid on a festival] if we can get the ?Wild, Wild West' politics and the cynicism projected by [Councillor Chris Ballard] which I believe rises out of the treatment unto the Aurora Jazz Fest organizers,? said Mr. Roche, referring to the war of words between himself and the Councillor while the festival was still on the table. ?We always had a great feeling of working with Aurora and nothing has changed. When things go a little bit sideways obviously politicians start to protect themselves and their own credibility within the Town, but in this case the credibility wasn't protected.? Credibility also took a hit, he claims when Councillor Abel began to get ?demanding? on which bands should take to the stage and how much they should be paid, as well as what he describes as a ?spectacle? being made out of their references. ?2013 is out of the question [for a festival],? he said. ?We're very sorry it didn't go the way we had proposed. It wasn't anything to do with our actions, certainly being the lead writer and the pitchmen for the plan, I certainly wouldn't have done anything to hijack my own proposal.

  • Plans Come Forward for 2013 Music Fest: the Pitches
    This page was exported from - The Auroran Export date: Mon Sep 27 1:34:54 2021 / +0000 GMT Plans come forward for 2013 music fest: The Pitches By Brock Weir When it rains, it pours ? but the recent music festival drought in Aurora was quenched last week by a two interested parties wanting to pick up the slack. Little more than a week after Council decided to scrap hopes for a 2013 music festival and cast their sights on 2014 instead, two groups came forward see if something could be salvaged for this year. While the proposals came from both from within and outside of the community, community is the very focus of what both groups pitched to Council on Tuesday. The first, was a music and arts festival pitched by Habachat, a local social media company. ?Our main mandate is to support our local community, local charities and local businesses by running local events,? said Tim Newnham of Habachat. ?We have successfully created a number of events like Iron Chef Aurora, and Taste of Aurora, and we have a strong belief that engaging the local community members and local events is the way we have a vital community. That is our belief and we will continue to do that with events four times a year throughout the Town to engage that. ?Our vision is to have more of a grassroots type of thing and take it back to Aurora Town Park. We would like this not just to be a music festival, but a cultural event that includes music, the arts and crafts, and local food artisans.? In his presentation, Mr.

For more information, please contact [email protected]. EDDIE MURPHY IN THE CUT: RACE, CLASS, CULTURE, AND 1980S FILM COMEDY by GAIL A. MCFARLAND Under the Direction of Lia T. Bascomb, PhD ABSTRACT Race, class, and politics in film comedy have been debated in the field of African American culture and aesthetics, with scholars and filmmakers arguing the merits of narrative space without adequately addressing the issue of subversive agency of aesthetic expression by black film comedians. With special attention to the 1980-1989 work of comedian Eddie Murphy, this study will look at the film and television work found in this moment as an incisive cut in traditional Hollywood industry and narrative practices in order to show black comedic agency through aesthetic and cinematic narrative subversion. Through close examination of the film, Beverly Hills Cop (Brest, 1984), this project works to shed new light on the cinematic and standup trickster influences of comedy, and the little recognized existence of the 1980s as a decade that defines a base period for chronicling and inspecting the black aesthetic narrative subversion of American film comedy.

  • OH MY GOD, THAT NIGGER SAID GUN!”: Use of Ethnic Humor in Modern Stand-Up Comedy
    ”OH MY GOD, THAT NIGGER SAID GUN!”: Use of ethnic humor in modern stand-up comedy Master’s thesis Ville Jakoaho and Sami Marjamäki University of Jyväskylä Department of Languages English February 2012 JYVÄSKYLÄN YLIOPISTO Tiedekunta – Faculty Laitos – Department Humanistinen tiedekunta Kielten laitos Tekijä – Author Ville Jakoaho ja Sami Marjamäki Työn nimi – Title “OH MY GOD, THAT NIGGER SAID GUN!”: Use of ethnic humor in modern stand-up comedy Oppiaine – Subject Työn laji – Level englanti Pro gradu -tutkielma Aika – Month and year Sivumäärä – Number of pages helmikuu 2012 117 sivua Tiivistelmä – Abstract Tutkielman tavoitteena oli selvittää, miten etninen huumori ilmenee modernissa stand-up komediassa. Tarkemmin sanottuna tutkielman kiinnostuksen kohde oli tutkia mihin tai keneen etninen huumori kohdistuu, ja mitä eri funktioita sillä saattaa olla. Tutkielmassa analysoitiin seitsemää eri stand-up esitystä viideltä eri amerikkalaiselta koomikolta, joista kaikki kuuluvat etnisiin vähemmistöryhmiin. Tutkielmassa käytetyt esitykset ovat live-esityksiä, jotka ovat julkaistu DVD formaattina. Tutkielma pohjautuu kriittiseen diskurssintutkimukseen ja keskeisenä metodina käytettiin Norman Fairclough:n kolmiulotteista diskurssimallia. Kriittisen diskurssintutkimuksen avulla pyrimme selvittämään sekä kielenkäytön tehtäviä että niiden vaikutuksia vitseissä, ja mitä mahdollisia implikaatioita koomikoiden vitseissä käyttämillä metodeilla on joko etnisten stereotypioiden vahvistamiseen tai heikentämiseen. Tutkielmassa havaittiin, että koomikoiden

  • The Reimagined Paradise: African Immigrants in the United States, Nollywood Film, and the Digital Remediation of 'Home'
    THE REIMAGINED PARADISE: AFRICAN IMMIGRANTS IN THE UNITED STATES, NOLLYWOOD FILM, AND THE DIGITAL REMEDIATION OF 'HOME' Tori O. Arthur 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 August 2016 Committee: Radhika Gajjala, Advisor Patricia Sharp Graduate Faculty Representative Vibha Bhalla Lara Lengel © 2016 Tori O. Arthur All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Radhika Gajjala, Advisor This dissertation analyzes how African immigrants from nations south of the Sahara become affective citizens of a universal Africa through the consumption of Nigerian cinema, known as Nollywood, in digital spaces. Employing a phenomenological approach to examine lived experience, this study explores: 1) how American media aids African pre-migrants in constructing the United States as a paradise rooted in the American Dream; 2) immigrants’ responses when the ‘imagined paradise’ does not match their American realities; 3) the ways Nigerian films articulate a distinctly African cultural experience that enables immigrants from various nations to identify with the stories reflected on screen; and, 4) how viewing Nollywood films in social media platforms creates a digital sub-diaspora that enables a reconnection with African culture when life in the United States causes intellectual and emotional dissonance. Using voices of members from the African immigrant communities currently living in the United States and analysis of their online media consumption, this study ultimately argues that the Nigerian film industry, a transnational cinema with consumers across the African diaspora, continuously creates a fantastical affective world that offers immigrants tools to connect with their African cultural values.
