Book Gothic Mash Ups

  • Author : Natalie Neill
  • Publisher : Rowman & Littlefield
  • Release : 2022-03-14
  • ISBN : 1793636583
  • Pages : 285 pages

Download or read book Gothic Mash Ups written by Natalie Neill and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2022-03-14 with total page 285 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gothic Mash-Ups explores the role of intertextuality in Gothic storytelling through the analysis of texts from diverse periods and media. Drawing on recent scholarship on Gothic remix and adaptation, the contributors examine crossover fictions, multi-source film and comic book adaptations, neo-Victorian pastiches, performance magic, monster mashes, and intertextual Gothic works of various kinds. Their chapters investigate many critical issues related to Gothic mash-up, including authorship, originality, intellectual property, fandom, commercialization, and canonicity. Although varied in approach, the chapters all explore how Gothic storytellers make new stories out of older ones, relying on a mix of appropriation and innovation. Covering many examples of mash-up, from nineteenth-century Gothic novels to twenty-first-century video games and interactive fiction, this collection builds from the premise that the Gothic is a fundamentally hybrid genre.

Book MashUp

  • Author : Vancouver Art Gallery
  • Publisher : Black Dog Press
  • Release : 2016
  • ISBN : 9781910433393
  • Pages : 341 pages

Download or read book MashUp written by Vancouver Art Gallery and published by Black Dog Press. This book was released on 2016 with total page 341 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: MashUp: The Birth of Modern Culture traces the inexorable rise of collage, montage, sampling and the cut-up. Tracing its roots from the multiple-perspectives, montages and readymades of Marcel Duchamp, Kurt Schwitters and Hannah Hoch, to the present with its postmodern network culture, where remixing and co-production are the norm and the New Aesthetic seeks to harmonise the now-everyday crossover of the digital and the actual. The book addresses the development of détournement and deconstruction in art, architecture, music and society. Each chapter is a detailed, inclusive look at a cross-section of the main artists and thinkers that have embraced and developed all forms of 'mashup' culture, since its inception in the late nineteenth century with Braque and Picasso's experiments into perspective. MashUp: The Birth of Modern Culture finds parallels between the works of luminaries such as Jean-Luc Godard, Joseph Cornell, Elizabeth Price, Joyce Wieland and Jeff Wall, tracing the lasting impact of such seemingly disparate cultural phenomena as voguing, hacking and the use of audio and film as a kind of a globally available, open source language in vidding, hip hop and dub, and in art that deals with the mass proliferation and dissemination of images and knowledge brought on by digital technologies. MashUp: The Birth of Modern Culture situates the work of Andy Warhol, Richard Hamilton and Guy Debord alongside the likes of Rem Koolhaas and Bruce Mau, Superstudio, Brian Eno and Cory Arcangel, and more generally within a culture where the new is necessarily re-made and re-modelled, and quotation and re-appropriation are an integral part of the way we talk about it. Published in collaboration with the Vancouver Art Gallery.

Book excerpt: More than music is made in this rock star reverse harem romance.In order for Vienna Charleston to win back her crown as pop's princess, all she needs to do is stay out of the tabloids, lose some weight, and rewind some years. However, with her star fading, the executives from her record label burst her pop bubble when they insist she become the lead singer for an all male rock band or face financial and public ruin by breaking her contract.After the suicide of their lead singer, the members of the Archangels band have been stuck in purgatory. Broke and trapped in a bad contract that gives the label complete control of their creative endeavors, they're at the mercy of whatever the executives have in store for them, even if it's bringing in a spoiled diva as their lead.Between the charming longhaired drummer who wants to sleep with her, the intellectual keyboardist who wants her to write music, and the brooding lead guitarist who simply hates her, their new band, Fallen Archangels seem doomed. The only way they are able to get any rhythm is when the four of them are in bed, but when their hit turns viral sensation and their fame explodes, they have to hide themselves from their label and the public or risk getting crushed.Fans who love how authors like EL James brought BDSM to the mainstream with Fifty Shades of Grey will enjoy this contemporary romance take on the exploding Reverse Harem genre.
