The conference’s title was «Pop – Power – Positions. Global Relations and Popular Music». It was organized by the editors of this volume, Anja Brunner and Hannes Liechti, in collaboration with the platform for music research Norient and the Swiss Society for Ethnomusicology CH-EM. Many people contributed to the success of the conference and the publication of this volume. We want to thank our conference assistant Yves Chapuis, who did a fantastic job, and the whole team of student assistants who were around during the conference. Thanks for support and hosting goes out to the Institute Interpretation at the Bern University of Arts (HKB) with Thomas Gartmann, Martin Skamletz, Sabine Jud, and Daniel Allenbach, and the Institute for Musicology and the Center for Global Studies of the University of Bern, with especially Prof. Dr. Britta Sweers. For kindly and generously funding the conference we owe thanks to the Swiss Academy of Humanities and Social Sciences, the Swiss National Science Foundation, the Burgergemein- de Bern, the Nachwuchsförderungsprojektpool of the University of Bern, and the SüdKultur- Fonds. This is the first volume of the new online book series ~Vibes, published by IASPM D-A-CH, the German-speaking branch of the International Association for the Study of Popular Music (http://iaspm-dach.net). ~Vibes will present contributions from the IASPM D-A-CH confer- ences online every second year. We wholeheartedly thank all people who have contributed to this volume. First and foremost, this is our student assistant Hannah Plüss, who supported us in all stages of publication with her persistent and accurate work. Furthermore, this edition was supported by the editorial board of the series (in alphabetical order): Stefanie Alisch, Susanne Binas-Preisendörfer, Dahl- ia Borsche, Sarah Chaker, Dietmar Elflein, José Gálvez, Christoph Jacke, Martin Ringsmut, Al- exandra Röck, and Bernhard Steinbrecher. A special thanks goes out to the international ad- visory board of ~Vibes, including Norma Coates, Derek B. Scott, and Geoff Stahl. We have to thank all the anonymous reviewers who critically read and feedbacked the articles and thereby immediately increased the quality of the texts. Finally, many thanks go out to Claudia Schacher for developing the layout and the cover art- work of this series. 7 Christoph Jacke Welcome to ~Vibes—The IASPM D-A-CH Series The time has come: Our branch starts its own online publication series. For several years now, the executive committee and advisory board of IASPM D-A-CH have worked on creating a new platform for our discourses and discussions—a platform that guarantees high quality and many opportunities for publishing. This series will publish selected contributions from our conferences, edited by the respective local organizers. It all starts with the carefully designed and now completed first volume including articles based on presentations from the 3rd IAS- PM D-A-CH Conference in Bern. Congratulations! According to the mission statement of IASPM D-A-CH, we consider ~Vibes as a platform for international, inter-institutional, intergenerational, interdisciplinary, and interprofessional re- search and considerations from popular music studies—applied as lived academic practices in research, teaching, and reflection, not in addition but integrally. ~Vibes represents a multi-perspectival consideration of popular music in all its texts and con- texts—from theoretical, empirical, historical, and political perspectives. ~Vibes enables various publication formats, tries out and expressly opens up as a platform to not genuinely academic / scientific, e.g. especially journalistic and artistic texts. Suggestions are always welcome! ~Vibes is a scientific publication with no commercial interests. All contributions are freely ac- cessible online (open access). A respective editorial team, as well as an up-to-date active ed- itorial board, which can be constantly expanded, also ensures a meaningful and supportive assessment. We express our thanks to the authors, reviewers, the editors, the editorial board, and especially the advisory board (Norma Coates, Derek B. Scott, Geoff Stahl) of the first volume of ~Vibes, entitled Pop–Power–Positions—and of course first and foremost to the editors and Bern con- ference organizers Anja Brunner and Hannes Liechti. Christoph Jacke, Chair IASPM D-A-CH, February 2021 Dr. Christoph Jacke is professor of theory, aesthetics, and history of popular music and course director of the BA and MA program in Popular Music and Media at the Department of Music at Paderborn University, Germany. Chair of the German/Austrian/Swiss branch of the Inter- national Association for the Study of Popular Music (IASPM D-A-CH, 2016–2021), journalist. Homepage: www.christophjacke.de. Anja Brunner, Hannes Liechti Pop–Power–Positions: Engaging with the (Post)Colonial in Popular Music Studies. An Introduction Our world is full of connections spanning rivers, mountains, and oceans. Networks of people, things, and sounds exist across institutions, nations, and states; across interest groups, scenes, and ethnically defined groups. In short: We live—and have lived for a long time—in a globally connected world. This fact could not even be changed by the COVID-19 pandemic restrictions in place while writing these lines. Of course, restrictions to contain the spread of the virus has limited travel and re-affirmed borders. But the global connections remain nonetheless. Popular music has always been embedded in and connected to this globalized world. Popular music not only travels but has travelled around the world with people, instruments, and on recordings—now within seconds online—and is and has been an integral part of daily life (e.g. quoted in adverts, memes, or films). Popular music has habitually included influences from different parts of the world; it has consistently mixed and remixed genres, styles, noises, and sounds. In this volume, we want to highlight popular music’s embeddedness in our globally connected world. This world, however, is not an equal and fair one. On the contrary, issues of power and po- sitionality play a fundamental role in all aspects of life. The context, world region, class, or ethnicity in which a person, institution, or music is situated matters. Historical developments have fostered the exploitation and unequal control over and distribution of (natural) resources, money, and land, and have created uneven power structures that provide uneven access to social, economic, political, and cultural participation. Consequently, issues of power, position- ality, access, and representation have shaped the production, distribution, and reception of popular music around the world and continue to do so today. At the same time, popular music has always initiated, debated, and represented questions of place(s), power, and positions, and still does. Popular music, in short, does not exist in a world free of power structures and inequalities. When looking at the popular music practices and performances—no matter if mainstream or niche, produced in a studio in Accra, in a bedroom in New York, or in an underground rehearsal room in Paderborn, Germany—we are inevi- tably confronted with the reality of colonial and postcolonial power structures and depend- ences.

    United Church of Christ Eighth Sunday After Pentecost July 26, 2020 Zoom Worship Pharaoh by A Sanctified Art WE GATHER TO WORSHIP GOD PRELUDE Go Down, Moses arr. Anthony Giamanco WELCOME & ANNOUCEMENTS Rev. Todd Atkins-Whitley 1 CALL TO WORSHIP Jack Stickler Listen. I have a story to tell— A story of a God who longed for justice. A story of a God who pushed back the waters to make dry land. A story of a God who would not take “no” for an answer when it came to the safety of God’s own. For God’s people were suffering. God’s people were crying out. God’s people were shackled and bound by oppression. So God said to Moses, “Speak.” “Let my people Go.” And Moses spoke— Over and over again. Moses stood up for justice, But over and over again, Pharaoh said no. Power said no. The path to justice is never easy, is it? The path to change is never a straight line, is it? So like Rosa, who sat on the bus, and Martin who had a dream, Moses kept trying. God kept speaking. Moses kept listening. Hope kept breathing. And when power tried to unravel justice, the people kept dreaming. God longed for justice. God still longs for justice. So let us worship God— For human injustice will never be strong enough to unravel God’s dream that all might be free, And all might know love. Let us worship holy God. PRAYER OF CONFESSION Rev. Mariah Callison One: God, you have asked us to be like Moses— Standing up for your people, standing up for justice.

  • ALL MY SONS a Play in Three Acts by Arthur Miller Characters: Joe Keller
    ALL MY SONS a play in three acts by Arthur Miller Characters: Joe Keller (Keller) Kate Keller (Mother) Chris Keller Ann Deever George Deever Dr. Jim Bayliss (Jim) Sue Bayliss Frank Lubey Lydia Lubey Bert Act One The back yard of the Keller home in the outskirts of an American town. August of our era. The stage is hedged on right and left by tall, closely planted poplars which lend the yard a secluded atmosphere. Upstage is filled with the back of the house and its open, unroofed porch which extends into the yard some six feet. The house is two stories high and has seven rooms. It would have cost perhaps fifteen thousand in the early twenties when it was built. Now it is nicely painted, looks tight and comfortable, and the yard is green with sod, here and there plants whose season is gone. At the right, beside the house, the entrance of the driveway can be seen, but the poplars cut off view of its continuation downstage. In the left corner, downstage, stands the four‐foot‐high stump of a slender apple tree whose upper trunk and branches lie toppled beside it, fruit still clinging to its branches. Downstage right is a small, trellised arbor, shaped like a sea shell, with a decorative bulb hanging from its forward‐curving roof. Carden chairs and a table are scattered about. A garbage pail on the ground next to the porch steps, a wire leaf‐burner near it. On the rise: It is early Sunday morning. Joe Keller is sitting in the sun reading the want ads of the Sunday paper, the other sections of which lie neatly on the ground beside him.

  • It Is Christmas Eve at a Waffle House Just Off Interstate 24 in Murfreesboro, TN, Just 20 Miles Outside of Nashville
    A SCATTERED, SMOTHERED & COVERED CHRISTMAS A Waffle House Christmas Musical written by Kaine Riggan (It is Christmas Eve at a Waffle House just off Interstate 24 in Murfreesboro, TN, just 20 miles outside of Nashville. As the lights come up, wee see one gentleman sitting in a booth drinking coffee and having a bowl of chili. A quirky little waitress names Rita enters, obviously in a good mood. She is somewhere between plain and attractive and somewhere between thirty-five and fifty-five, although it is somewhat difficult to judge where in either category she clocks in. She pours out the old coffee (regular) and starts a new pot. She picks up a second pot (decaf) and smells it and decides to keep it. Suddenly, she notices the audience for the first time.) RITA Well shoot fire! If I’d known all ya’ll were gonna be here tonight, I’d a spent more time on this hair. (She quickly adjusts her hairdo) What do you think Harold? Is that better or should I just wear my bad hair day bonnet? (referring to her Waffle House paper hat) (HAROLD mumbles a grouchy, unintelligible response) Oh, chip up, Harold. It’s Christmas Eve! Don’t you just love Christmas Eve? (HAROLD starts to mumble again but she talks right over his response) Awe, there’s just something about this place on Christmas Eve. It’s magical… like there’s something special in the air. HAROLD (acknowledging himself) Sorry! RITA That is not exactly what I had in mind (shouting towards the kitchen) Bert, get in here and change this chili out.

    Administration of Donald J. Trump, 2017 Remarks at a "Make America Great Again Rally" in Cedar Rapids, Iowa June 21, 2017 Audience members. U.S.A.! U.S.A.! U.S.A.! The President. Thank you, everybody. It is great to be back in the incredible, beautiful, great State of Iowa, home of the greatest wrestlers in the world, including our friend, Dan Gable. Some of the great, great wrestlers of the world, right? We love those wrestlers. It's always terrific to be able to leave that Washington swamp and spend time with the truly hard-working people. We call them American patriots, amazing people. I want to also extend our congratulations this evening to Karen Handel of Georgia. And we can't forget Ralph Norman in South Carolina. He called me, and I called him. He said, you know, last night I felt like the forgotten man. But he won, and he won really beautifully, even though most people—a lot of people didn't show up because they thought he was going to win by so much. It's always dangerous to have those big leads. But he won very easily, and he is a terrific guy. And I'll tell you what, Karen is going to be really incredible. She is going to be joining some wonderful people and doing some wonderful work, including major, major tax cuts and health care and lots of things. Going to be reducing crime, and we're securing that Second Amendment. I told you about that. And that looks like it's in good shape with Judge Gorsuch.

  • First Words: the Birth of Sound Cinema
    First Words The Birth of Sound Cinema, 1895 – 1929 Wednesday, September 23, 2010 Northwest Film Forum Co-Presented by The Sprocket Society Seattle, WA www.sprocketsociety.org Origins “In the year 1887, the idea occurred to me that it was possible to devise an instrument which should do for the eye what the phonograph does for the ear, and that by a combination of the two all motion and sound could be recorded and reproduced simultaneously. …I believe that in coming years by my own work and that of…others who will doubtlessly enter the field that grand opera can be given at the Metropolitan Opera House at New York [and then shown] without any material change from the original, and with artists and musicians long since dead.” Thomas Edison Foreword to History of the Kinetograph, Kinetoscope and Kineto-Phonograph (1894) by WK.L. Dickson and Antonia Dickson. “My intention is to have such a happy combination of electricity and photography that a man can sit in his own parlor and see reproduced on a screen the forms of the players in an opera produced on a distant stage, and, as he sees their movements, he will hear the sound of their voices as they talk or sing or laugh... [B]efore long it will be possible to apply this system to prize fights and boxing exhibitions. The whole scene with the comments of the spectators, the talk of the seconds, the noise of the blows, and so on will be faithfully transferred.” Thomas Edison Remarks at the private demonstration of the (silent) Kinetoscope prototype The Federation of Women’s Clubs, May 20, 1891 This Evening’s Film Selections All films in this program were originally shot on 35mm, but are shown tonight from 16mm duplicate prints.
