Online Popular Music Research + API
by Craig Hamilton 14 Jul '16

14 Jul '16

Hi all, I’m relatively new to this list, but I’ve been following the various discussions with interest. I will be at my first AOIR conference in Berlin later this year and look forward to meeting you. I wanted to pass on some information that may be of interest to colleagues looking at popular music. My PhD research is based around a project called Harkive, which gathers stories online from people about the detail of the music listening across the course of a single day each year. Harkive 2016 takes place next Tuesday, 19th July. More information can be found on the project website: http://www.harkive.org Of potentially wider interest is a new development for 2016. With a colleague at BCU I have developed an API for the data collected by the project. I’ve provided a public-facing overview, including links to the API and a simple data visualisation platform built with it, in this post on the project site: http://harkive.org/api-data-viz/ If any of the above is of interest, please do feel free to contact me. You can also keep an eye on the project via Twitter (@harkive<http://www.twitter.com/harkive>) Kind regards Craig

Re: [Air-L] suggestions for movies on communication technology and social change

Looks like we’re generating a great list, I hope someone compiles a master list and shares it. The dystopic versions of these stories are particularly interesting to me, so I have lots of examples. I’ve included some that haven’t yet been mentioned below. But I’d also suggest that in addition to giving students a list of 5 or so films (and/or TV shows, I think some have already mentioned *Black Mirror* and *Mr. Robot*), you encourage them to come up with their own examples. I do a similar assignment and I find that students never cease to come up with interesting interpretations of films I’d never have considered in those terms. For example, one of my students talked about how *Gone Girl* (David Fincher, 2014) makes an argument about the power of the news media to guide public opinion. Some interesting early examples that mirror today’s discussions about mediated identity construction and the documentary power of moving images: *Hoodoo Ann* (Ingraham, 1916). A girl accidentally shots a gun as she’s mimicking a Western star and mistakenly believes she’s killed a man because she applies (faulty) movie-logic to interpret the real-life events. *A Reckless Romeo* (Fatty Arbuckle, 1917) A philandering husband is caught on film and publicly shamed when he appears in a public service newsreel entitled “Mashers in our Parks Must be Stopped” (in contemporary parlance, to *mash* meant to *come on to* someone who was unwelcoming) *Sherlock Jr.* (Buster Keaton, 1924) a boy dreams himself into a movie where he becomes a better version of himself. In the end, he wakes up and in the film’s final seconds kisses the girl of his dreams after learning from the movie exactly what to do. Two films that I often use clips from for in-class examples in advance of the assignment are: *Idiocracy* (Mike Judge, 2006) A pretty terrible and somewhat racist film about a future dystopia where American citizens have become stupefied by evermore vapid TV programming and automated living. Despite, or actually, because of it’s failings, I find it to be very teachable. *Wall-E* (Andrew Stanton, 2008) This popular Disney/Pixar collaboration depicts a future of fat, lazy, stupid and disconnected humans that is very similar to the world of Idiocracy, though it does have a feel-good environmentalist message. Has anyone mentioned *Tron* (Steven Lisberger, 1982)? It sort of fits the digital activism mold, though ironically it was funded by a company a lot like the villain on the movie (Disney) to help sell video games.

I still remember watching *Koyaanisqatsi *in college (aka a long time ago) Lifted from wikipedia. Reggio stated that the *Qatsi* films are intended to simply create an experience and that "it is up [to] the viewer to take for himself/herself what it is that [the film] means." He also said that "these films have never been about the effect *of* technology, *of* industry *on* people. It's been that everyone: politics, education, things of the financial structure, the nation state structure, language, the culture, religion, all of that exists within the host of technology. So it's not the effect *of*, it's that everything exists within [technology]. It's not that we *use* technology, we *live* technology. Technology has become as ubiquitous as the air we breathe..."[3] <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Koyaanisqatsi#cite_note-eol-3> On Wed, Jul 13, 2016 at 3:00 PM, <air-l-request(a)listserv.aoir.org> wrote: > Send Air-L mailing list submissions to > air-l(a)listserv.aoir.org > > To subscribe or unsubscribe via the World Wide Web, visit > http://listserv.aoir.org/listinfo.cgi/air-l-aoir.org > or, via email, send a message with subject or body 'help' to > air-l-request(a)listserv.aoir.org > > You can reach the person managing the list at > air-l-owner(a)listserv.aoir.org > > When replying, please edit your Subject line so it is more specific > than "Re: Contents of Air-L digest..." > > > Today's Topics: > > 1.

Well Played Journal Special Issue Cfp: European Videogames of the 1980s
by Clara Fernandez-Vara 13 Jul '16

13 Jul '16

Apologies for cross-posting Well Played Journal Special Issue Cfp: European Videogames of the 1980s Edited by Clara Fernandez-Vara and Bennett Foddy. The historical discourse of videogames has been dominated by the North American narrative, which sidelines the history of other parts of the world which were not affected by the Atari Crash. The 1980s were a time when the European entertainment software industry thrived and bloomed, particularly on home computers, and demonstrated impressive levels of inventiveness within a few kilobytes of memory. Games were sold on cassette tapes through pre-existing networks of music distribution or office supplies, while piracy helped open avenues of distribution that crossed geopolitical barriers. We are requesting submissions that consist of analysis of games produced all over Europe in the 1980s, from Portugal to USSR. Analyses of popular games, such as Elite or Manic Miner, are welcome, although we are particularly interested in games produced beyond the United Kingdom. Each submission should be framed within its historical and cultural context in order to help generate an alternate historical discourse. Research on the so-called local histories is a good fit for this special issue, as long as it can focus on analyzing particular games. ETC Press is accepting submissions for this special issue of the Well Played journal. All submissions are due 1st November 2016. All submissions and questions should be sent to: well-played (at) lists (dot) andrew (dot) cmu (dot) edu For more information and formatting guidelines, visit: http://press.etc.cmu.edu/wellplayed <http://www.etc.cmu.edu/etcpress/wellplayed> http://press.etc.cmu.edu/files/WellPlayed-Guidelines.pdf <http://www.etc.cmu.edu/etcpress/files/WellPlayed-Guidelines.pdf> The Well Played Journal is a forum for in-depth close readings of video games that parse out the various meanings to be found in the experience of playing a game. It is a reviewed journal open to submissions that will be released on a regular basis. Contributors are encouraged to analyze sequences in a game in detail in order to illustrate and interpret how the various components of a game can come together to create a fulfilling playing experience unique to this medium. Through contributors, the journal will provide a variety of perspectives on the value of games. The goal of the journal is to continue developing and defining a literacy of games as well as a sense of their value as an experience. Video games are a complex medium that merits careful interpretation and insightful analysis. By inviting contributors to look closely at video games and the experience of playing them, we hope to expand the discussion, and show how games are well played in a variety of ways. The ETC Press is an academic and open-source publishing imprint that distributes its work in print, electronic and digital form. Inviting readers to contribute to and create versions of each publication, ETC Press fosters a community of collaborative authorship and dialogue across media. ETC Press represents an experiment and an evolution in publishing, bridging virtual and physical media to redefine the future of publication. http://press.etc.cmu.edu//wellplayed <http://www.etc.cmu.edu/etcpress/wellplayed> Twittter: http://twitter.com/#!/etcwellplayed <http://twitter.com/#%21/etcwellplayed> ISSN 2164-344X (Print) ISSN 2164-3458 (Online)

Call for Participation - AoIR Early Career Scholars Workshop at AoIR 2016
by Andrea Guzman 13 Jul '16

13 Jul '16

Join us as we build a global community of early career scholars within AoIR! What: AoIR Early Career Scholars Workshop, preconference for AoIR 2016 - Berlin When: Oct. 5, morning session Organizers: Andrea L. Guzman (Northern Illinois University), Jeff Hemsley (Syracuse University), Marisa Elena Duarte (Arizona State University), Kelly Boudreau (Brunel University London), Catherine Steele (University of Maryland) Audience: This workshop is geared toward early career scholars who have their terminal degree and are working toward establishing themselves in a scholarly career. We have worked to create a workshop that is reflective of AoIR's international membership and the different types of academic and research institutions represented. Goals: 1) Provide a space for the next generation of AoIR scholars to start building strong ties with each other, more established researchers, and the AoIR community. 2) To promote understanding of the breadth of academic work, including our shared experiences and differences. 3) Connect with established academics to learn strategies for forwarding our careers. 4) Gain insight into how to formulate similar workshops in future years that support the need for mentoring early scholars in the AoIR community. Format: We will have a mix of interactive sessions involving early career scholars and established academics. To that end, we are asking participants to tell us what they want to talk about. Registration: Participants must register through the official AoIR 2016 conference (cost is included with conference registration.) We also are asking participants to email 1 to 3 questions that they would like addressed by a panel of established scholars to Andrea L. Guzman (alguzman(a)niu.edu) AND Jeff Hemsley (jjhemsle(a)syr.edu) For more information: http://aoir.org/aoir2016/preconference-workshops/#career _____ Andrea L.
