Alan Moore, Out from the Underground

Alan Moore, Out from the Underground

This book explores Alan Moore’s career as a cartoonist, as shaped by his transdisciplinary practice as a poet, illustrator, musician and playwright as well as his involvement in the Northampton Arts Lab and the hippie counterculture in which it took place. It traces Moore’s trajectory out from the underground comix scene of the 1970s and into a commercial music press rocked by the arrival of punk. In doing so it uncovers how performance has shaped Moore’s approach to comics and their political potential. Drawing on the work of Bertolt Brecht, who similarly fused political dissent with experimental popular art, this book considers what looking strangely at Alan Moore as cartoonist tells us about comics, their visual and material form, and the performance and politics of their reading and making.

Alan Turing: Life and Legacy of a Great Thinker

Alan Turing: Life and Legacy of a Great Thinker

Alan Turing's fundamental contributions to computing led to the development of modern computing technology, and his work continues to inspire researchers in computing science and beyond. This book is the definitive collection of commemorative essays, and the distinguished contributors have expertise in such diverse fields as artificial intelligence, natural computing, mathematics, physics, cryptology, cognitive studies, philosophy and anthropology. The volume spans the entire rich spectrum of Turing's life, research work and legacy. New light is shed on the future of computing science by visionary Ray Kurzweil. Notable contributions come from the philosopher Daniel Dennett, the Turing biographer Andrew Hodges, and the distinguished logician Martin Davis, who provides a first critical essay on an emerging and controversial field termed hypercomputation. A special feature of the book is the play by Valeria Patera which tackles the scandal surrounding the last apple, and presents as an enigma the life, death and destiny of the man who did so much to decipher the Enigma code during the Second World War. Other chapters are modern reappraisals of Turing's work on computability, and deal with the major philosophical questions raised by the Turing Test, while the book also contains essays addressing his less well-known ideas on Fibonacci phyllotaxis and connectionism.
Alan Lomax, the South, and the American Folk Music Revival, 1933-1969
Alan Lomax (1915-2002) is arguably the most popular and influential American folk song collector of the 20th century. Pursuing a mission of both preserving and popularizing folk music, Lomax moved between political activism, the scholarly world, and the world of popular culture. Based largely on primary material, the book shows how Lomax’s diverse activities made him an authority in the field of folk music and how he used this power to advocate the cultures of perceived marginalized Americans – whom he located primarily in the American South. In this approach, however, folk music became an abstract idea onto which notions oscillating between hope and disillusionment, fear and perspective were projected. The author argues that Lomax’s role as a cultural mediator, with a politically motivated approach, helped him to decisively shape the perception and reception of what came to be known as American folk music, from the mid 1930s to the late 1960s.

Rezension / Literaturbericht aus dem Jahr 2008 im Fachbereich Kulturwissenschaften - Sonstiges, Note: 1,2, Westf lische Wilhelms-Universit t M nster (Seminar f r Volkskunde / Europ ische Ethnologie), Veranstaltung: Nationale Stereotypen, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Der amerikanische Volkskundler Alan Dundes sorgte durch unbequeme Thesen Zeit seines Lebens f r zahlreiche Kontroversen. "Sie mich auch " (engl.: "Life is like chicken coop ladder") ist dabei sein wohl umstrittenstes Werk. Dundes untersucht anhand zahlreicher Beispiele aus Literatur, Musik und Historie den deutschen Nationalcharakter, und kommt dabei zu einem unangenehmen Ergebnis: Der typische Deutsche sei analfixiert, von F kalien besessen und durch einen zwanghaften Reflex zur Reinlichkeit von jeder Form des Drecks heimgesucht. Die Arbeit fasst die Thesen des Buches anhand ausgew hlter Beispiele zusammen, diskutiert dessen Auswertung und bt Kritik.
