Red Hook dock workers — brothers in the same longshoreman’s union — will split up on Saturday morning, April 15, one group unloading passengers and baggage from the glamorous Queen Mary 2, the other taking lumber and steel off a freighter called the Brasilia. The long-awaited arrival of the QM2 is a his- toric moment in Red Hook — and not just because Brooklyn is welcoming the largest cruise ship in the world. It also puts front and center two competing vi- Lousy bagels Gowanus Canal sions for the Red Hook waterfront — namely, whether Brooklyn’s last working container port will survive or succumb to the newly arrived cruise ship industry. Many longshoreman are hedging their bets. Nearly 100 union baggage handlers will jump to the cruise ship terminal from the container port to- day. Two hundred others will remain with the far- less-feted cargo, their fate in the hands of city offi- cials, who say they will not renew the container port operator’s lease when it expires next year. Through it all, the union brothers vow to get along. / Cunard Cruise Lines / Cunard “I’m not going to yell at anyone for working over there,” said one crane operator at the contain- er port. “The cruise ship terminal is better than the No late-night cabs one in Bayonne, better than the one in Manhattan.

  • Gowanus Gentrified?
    Gowanus Gentrified? Community Responses to Gentrification and Economic Development in the Shadow of the Superfund Michael Spitzer-Rubenstein Senior Thesis for the Urban Studies Program Barnard College, Columbia University Submitted April 18, 2012 Thesis Advisor: Meredith Linn Abstract Gowanus is an industrial neighborhood changing into a gentrified area, but it faces such severe pollution that the EPA designated the Gowanus Canal, which bisects the area, a Superfund site in 2010. The industry still in Gowanus includes a mix of traditional industrial businesses, craft industries, and artists, but they might disappear if developers build luxury condos in the neighborhood. This study looks at the clash between activists over how the community has and will change, focusing on the pro-development Gowanus Canal Community Development Corporation and the preservationist and pro-Superfund Friends and Residents of Greater Gowanus. Many local activists embrace the vision of Gowanus as a place for making things and hope to maintain industry. Even though industry left the neighborhood polluted, most do not connect the two. The Superfund seeks to clean up the neighborhood but it may pave the way for environmental gentrification, which is the pollution cleanup causing gentrification. However, fears of the Superfund harming home prices do not appear to be true; GIS analysis shows that land closest to environmental hazards increased the most in value. Residents also hope to avoid the experiences of other New York neighborhoods, which saw gentrification cause displacement. More than residential displacement, though, activists worry about the culture of Gowanus disappearing and hope to save it. Their remedies such as historic preservation and zoning Gowanus for mixed use may not be effective or viable, though.

  • Lycra, Legs, and Legitimacy: Performances of Feminine Power in Twentieth Century American Popular Culture
    LYCRA, LEGS, AND LEGITIMACY: PERFORMANCES OF FEMININE POWER IN TWENTIETH CENTURY AMERICAN POPULAR CULTURE Quincy Thomas 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 May 2018 Committee: Jonathan Chambers, Advisor Francisco Cabanillas, Graduate Faculty Representative Bradford Clark Lesa Lockford © 2018 Quincy Thomas All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Jonathan Chambers, Advisor As a child, when I consumed fictional narratives that centered on strong female characters, all I noticed was the enviable power that they exhibited. From my point of view, every performance by a powerful character like Wonder Woman, Daisy Duke, or Princess Leia, served to highlight her drive, ability, and intellect in a wholly uncomplicated way. What I did not notice then was the often-problematic performances of female power that accompanied those narratives. As a performance studies and theatre scholar, with a decades’ old love of all things popular culture, I began to ponder the troubling question: Why are there so many popular narratives focused on female characters who are, on a surface level, portrayed as bastions of strength, that fall woefully short of being true representations of empowerment when subjected to close analysis? In an endeavor to answer this question, in this dissertation I examine what I contend are some of the paradoxical performances of female heroism, womanhood, and feminine aggression from the 1960s to the 1990s. To facilitate this investigation, I engage in close readings of several key aesthetic and cultural texts from these decades. While the Wonder Woman comic book universe serves as the centerpiece of this study, I also consider troublesome performances and representations of female power in the television shows Bewitched, I Dream of Jeannie, and Buffy the Vampire Slayer, the film Grease, the stage musical Les Misérables, and the video game Tomb Raider.

DOI: 10.5294/pacla.2015.18.4.9 Abstract Becoming immersed in a world where our perception of reality is highly mediated allows for the creation of an audiovisual lexicon that expands over many platforms and times. In this context we might observe the case of vi- deo games which, as a medium, does not limit themselves to the creation of puzzles to be solved, to pretend participation in the Rock and Roll world, or lead us to unexpected damages to our “flesh”. Games allow us different levels of enjoyment and also lead us to discover the physical limits of our bodies within the expansion of our senses. Furthermore, hidden in many of these games we discover many hints, influences, remnants, appropria- tions and quotes, expanding the web of signs and significations far beyond the limits of the games themselves. However, the extent and consequences of video games as entertainment and communicational devices surpasses 1 Universidad del Norte, Colombia.

  • Game Masters Sample Pages
    GAME MASTERS Edited by Emma McRae Masanobu Endō joined Namco in 1981 and his first game,Xevious (1982), became a Masanobu massive hit in Japan. Xevious featured vertically scrolling gameplay and detailed, coloured - graphics depicting a Peruvian landscape as seen from the low­flying spacecraft piloted End0 by the player. Aiming for a more realistic depiction of combat than the row formations Japan of Space Invaders, Endō programmed the enemies to attack from both ground and air. In addition, the game reacts to the skills of the player, moving seamlessly through 16 levels of difficulty. Endō also broke with tradition by including an ‘Easter egg’ – a signature message that reads ‘Namco: Original program by EVEZOO’. Endō also designed Tower of Druaga (1984), a complex 60­level maze game comprising the first episode of Babylonian Castle Saga. In 1985 Endō left Namco to establish his own company, Game Studio, where he continued to collaborate with Namco, producing the Family Circuit racing series. - Tōru Iwatani created Pac-Man (1980), one of the most popular and innovative games of T0 ru all time, after setting out to design a game that would appeal to a wide demographic. He settled on the concept of eating, bypassing the usual sporting or apocalyptic themes. Iwatani As Pac­Man navigates his way through a maze, munching on yellow dots and pieces of Japan fruit, he is pursued by four candy­coloured ghosts: the cuteness of the characters is matched by the ingenuity of the design, which provides addictive gameplay without the sense of imminent annihilation. Pac-Man is credited with being the first game to feature power­ups, cutscenes and even the concept of stealth play.
