Besides hosting unanticipated events, not much is known about what goes on before and after the events, so we’ve gone behind the scenes to interview Jack Glenn, leader of POTATE. How many people are involved in POTATE? From what grades? “POTATE.” And then I filled in the rest of the words based on what sounded good. Potato is just a funny sounding word too, like waf- Jack Glenn: As far as really active members, I’m very proud of fle or potata or polliwog. grade distribution. We’ve got a lot of people from every grade. On average, we have 3-4 people from each grade. What have been some difficulties that you have experienced while running POTATE? How does POTATE work around the A and B week schedule and the different lunches? Jack Glenn: Well I think the biggest difficulty is, at the beginning especially, me not knowing how the school administration works. Jack Glenn: We meet at Office Hours. That’s how we work around Usually for smaller events, the school is pretty liberal and lenient. the lunch thing. We aren’t a club since one hour every two weeks You just have to go to Ms. Daughtry and she’ll be like “cool” and will not help. Usually the meeting cycle for events is like, there is you’re like “cool.” For the Haunted House, I needed to get chap- one super intense week of planning and there’s a couple weeks of erones, which I didn’t know about, and a cash box, which I also actual work where we don’t have meetings and there’s the actual didn’t know about.

But there’s definitely a very long process that I wasn’t aware of and also just like, even Jack Glenn: I think that the best thing about POTATE is that it al- knowing who to talk to and what form to fill out was really chal- lows members more creative control, independence, and creative lenging. I’d ask someone “hey can you help me with this,” and freedom. It’s entirely student run. For the first two events of the they’d be like “oh go talk to this person” and then they’d be like year (the Parade and the Haunted House), I was the tyrannical “oh talk to that person.” And I would sort of start going in a loop, leader. Now I’m letting other people become the tyrannical leader and I’d be like “oh no.” too. The next event we had coming up was led by Flo, which is cool. I’m hoping to get a lot more people involved with actually Getting people to do their jobs and meet their deadlines is also leading events too and teaching other people how the school tough. For the Fancy Melon Potluck Party last year, like no one met administration works. The other interesting thing is other people their animation deadlines so I basically had to cut out parts of the can learn from the horrible mistakes that I have made whenever song so I wouldn’t have to make the animations and I had to fill in I’ve tried to get events approved. the rest. I don’t really have much going on, so I have much time to give, but other people don’t have that much time. Not everyone How did you come up with the name POTATE? has as liberal a schedule as I do, so it makes things difficult. Even though everyone is really busy, everyone is still really passionate Jack Glenn: I was actually at a robotics competition when I came about it. We have a lot of fun. I remember in the Haunted House, up with the name. Okay, so basically I was just trying to think of we took so many videos of us dabbing in the costumes. I think funny sounding acronyms and I knew it had to have an E in it for that one of the most fun things to do with a group of people is “events” and an O for “organization,” so I thought “potato,” wait build stuff and make stuff, and that’s what we do. Page 4 | Vantage Magazine Where does POTATE get their inspiration from? turns out that we didn’t need that many trash bags, so I just have 7 boxes of dollar store trash bags sitting in my house. That was fun. My Jack Glenn: Oooh, I am an inspiration. Just kidding! Definitely for the family will not be ever wanting for trash bags. Haunted House, we took a lot of inspiration from a lot of horror video games. Like there is one video game called “Eve,” which is basically What is your favorite event for POTATE? about a haunted art gallery. So you’re like oh cool, okay, haunted art gallery. And “Five Nights at Freddy’s” was totally an inspiration. Jack Glenn: Oh I like them all. Let’s see here, probably the Soiree. Definitely, 100%. We basically ripped it off in one of our games. And That is the reason why I initially bought a top hat and I love top hats for other things, like musical influences, our influences are jazz and and dapper things. And it was also the first time I’d done a musical showtunes, soft-shoe stuff, and also just working around the fact number to promote an event. that we only use midi instruments and most of those sound terrible.

Jack Glenn: Right now they’re either sitting on this really big storage Jack Glenn: It really depends on the project and how big it is. The Pa- shelf in my garage or we throw them out.

We save the posterboard and use the back for House, well we didn’t actually start working on it as a group until a something else, but for the tablecloths and stuff we throw them out month and a half before the Haunted House happened, but I had because they’re completely ruined by the end of the event.

I’ve noticed a few comments floating about recently about how now we’re in a new decade we are supposed to be ‘living in the future’. Obviously that statement is a paradox in itself, but I think the crux of the beef is that you still can’t buy Back To The Future hoverboards and James Bond jetpacks in Argos. There’s a simple solution to cure this disillusionment: watch 2010 (the sequel to 2001: A Space Odyssey) as I did this week. It’s highly disappointing and after it’s finished you’ll be glad to get back to your humdrum life again.

This practice- based research explores the rich history of radio as an artistic medium and the relationship between the artist and technology, emphasising the role of the artist as a mediator between broadcast institutions and a listening public. It considers how radio art might be defined in relation to sound art, music and media art, mapping its shifting parameters in the digital era and prompting a consideration of how radio appears to be moving from a dispersed „live‟ event to one consumed „on demand‟ by a segmented audience across multiple platforms.

  • The Spectral Voice and 9/11
    SILENCIO: THE SPECTRAL VOICE AND 9/11 Lloyd Isaac Vayo 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 2010 Committee: Ellen Berry, Advisor Eileen C. Cherry Chandler Graduate Faculty Representative Cynthia Baron Don McQuarie © 2010 Lloyd Isaac Vayo All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Ellen Berry, Advisor “Silencio: The Spectral Voice and 9/11” intervenes in predominantly visual discourses of 9/11 to assert the essential nature of sound, particularly the recorded voices of the hijackers, to narratives of the event. The dissertation traces a personal journey through a selection of objects in an effort to seek a truth of the event. This truth challenges accepted narrativity, in which the U.S. is an innocent victim and the hijackers are pure evil, with extra-accepted narrativity, where the additional import of the hijacker’s voices expand and complicate existing accounts. In the first section, a trajectory is drawn from the visual to the aural, from the whole to the fragmentary, and from the professional to the amateur. The section starts with films focused on United Airlines Flight 93, The Flight That Fought Back, Flight 93, and United 93, continuing to a broader documentary about 9/11 and its context, National Geographic: Inside 9/11, and concluding with a look at two YouTube shorts portraying carjackings, “The Long Afternoon” and “Demon Ride.” Though the films and the documentary attempt to reattach the acousmatic hijacker voice to a visual referent as a means of stabilizing its meaning, that voice is not so easily fixed, and instead gains force with each iteration, exceeding the event and coming from the past to inhabit everyday scenarios like the carjackings.

  • NON-COMMERCIAL USER-GENERATED CONTENT and EXCEPTIONS to COPYRIGHT a Comparison Between the US, Canada, and the EU
    NON-COMMERCIAL USER-GENERATED CONTENT AND EXCEPTIONS TO COPYRIGHT A comparison between the US, Canada, and the EU Linda Powell Advanced Studies in Law and Information Society University of Turku, Faculty of Law June 2020 UNIVERSITY OF TURKU Faculty of Law POWELL LINDA: Non-commercial user-generated content and exceptions to copyright – a comparison between the US, Canada, and the EU Master’s thesis, 68p. Law, Copyright Law June 2020 The topic of this thesis is how existing limitations and exceptions to copyright address the conflict between the economic interests of rightsholders and the interests of users in producing and disseminating user-generated content. Creative appropriation is heavily present in user-generated content in the Web 2.0. However, appropriative expressions often clash with copyright. Technological developments have resulted in the expansion of exclusive rights at the expense of limitations and exceptions. The concerns of rightsholders are increasingly focused on protecting economic interests. The thesis utilizes the legal dogmatic approach and the comparative legal method with a focus on the US, Canadian, and EU jurisdictions. Microcomparative comparison between the jurisdictions examines how each of them have addressed the balancing of interests between rightsholders and users in their limitations and exceptions. The political and historical contexts of the jurisdictions are discussed on a macrocomparative level. The main sources are constitutional authorities, statutory copyright legislation and case-law of each of the jurisdictions. References are also made to international treaties, such as Berne, TRIPS, WCT and WPPT. The main findings of the thesis are that US fair use accepts a wide range of purposes – many of which pertain to user-generated content.

    POP MUSIC, CULTURE AND IDENTITY Popular Music, Technology, and the Changing Media Ecosystem From Cassettes to Stream Edited by Tamas Tofalvy · Emília Barna Pop Music, Culture and Identity Series Editors Steve Clark Graduate School Humanities and Sociology University of Tokyo Bunkyo-ku, Tokyo, Japan Tristanne Connolly Department of English St Jerome’s University Waterloo, ON, Canada Jason Whittaker School of English & Journalism University of Lincoln Lincoln, Lincolnshire, UK Pop music lasts. A form all too often assumed to be transient, commer- cial and mass-cultural has proved itself durable, tenacious and continually evolving. As such, it has become a crucial component in defining various forms of identity (individual and collective) as influenced by nation, class, gender and historical period. Pop Music, Culture and Identity investigates how this enhanced status shapes the iconography of celebrity, provides an ever-expanding archive for generational memory and accelerates the impact of new technologies on performing, packaging and global market- ing. The series gives particular emphasis to interdisciplinary approaches that go beyond musicology and seeks to validate the informed testimony of the fan alongside academic methodologies.

  • Portfolio of Compositions
    Portfolio of Compositions Radoslaw Rudnicki PhD University of York Music March 2012 Abstract This portfolio presents seven projects that use improvisation as source material for subsequent electronic music. Fixed media pieces including music for film, contemporary dance as well as two albums are included. Furthermore, recordings of live performance works where improvisation was controlled via compositions, loop- based material, custom-made software tools and hardware devices are presented in the folio. The commentary explains the methods used in the projects and shows them in a wider context of other artists’ work. It describes the creative usage of technology in the pieces presented in the folio. Also, the examination of visual elements as a guide for improvisation is discussed in relation to each project. ii List of Contents Abstract ii List of Contents iii List of Figures iv List of Submitted Projects v Acknowledgments vi Author's Declaration vii Aims 1 Introduction and Aesthetics 1 Improvisation as Source Material and Its Relation to Found Sound 3 Dance Pieces (2008-2009) 6 Cinematic Project (2009-2011) 10 Aquatusz (2010) 11 Synthesis (2010) 13 Electricity (2010) 16 Freeform (2010) 17 Space Fight (2011) 19 Future Work and Evolution of Current Projects 22 Appendix 24 Resource List 28 iii List of Figures Figure 1 Types of piece presented in the folio. ................................................................................. 1 Figure 2 Project development working ............................................................................................. 2 Figure 3 Roots-Dance-Poetry – rehearsal at NSCD in Leeds, 2009. ................................................ 7 Figure 4 Sketch of Roots-Dance-Poetry structure (Flex, Izzy, Janice, Liz, Heather – dancers) ....... 9 Figure 5 Visualisations for Aquatusz – rehearsal, 2010 .................................................................. 12 Figure 6 Synthesis – showing circle size and colors related to dynamics and density required .....

Tracing the rise of email, party websites, social media, online videos and gamification, scholars have shown how, since the 1990s, parties have become heavily dependent on digital technology (Gibson, 2015). In this chapter we focus on two elements of the 2017 digital campaign: Facebook advertising and what we term ‘satellite campaigns’. Whilst resisting claims of revolution and transformational change (Kreiss, 2010, Williamson, Miller and Fallon, 2010)we nevertheless argue that these digital practices have important implications for parties’ organisational structures, practices and behaviour, as well as for public expectations of campaigning.
