Op 1 april 1971 verscheen de allereerste Oor. Barend Toet, een vierentwintigjarige student politieke wetenschappen uit Amsterdam-Noord, was de man die Nederland zijn eigen Rolling Stone wilde geven. Al snel groeide het blad uit tot een waar icoon; iedereen die iets betekende in de muziekwereld streefde naar een plek in het tijdschrift. 'Als het maar keihard en swingend is,' was het motto van de redactie. Nu, veertig jaar na de geboorte van Oor, beschrijft Barend Toet het eerste decennium van het lijfblad van velen, en beschouwt de periode daarna in een breder perspectief. Als geen ander is hij in staat een intiem beeld van die opwindende begintijd te schetsen, toen de afstand tussen popschrijvers en sterren als Frank Zappa, David Bowie, Steven Stills en Robbie Robertson nog klein was. Keihard & Swingend is het persoonlijk verhaal van Barend Toet, gelardeerd met humor en zijn eigenzinnige visie op popjournalistiek, waarbij de liefde voor muziek van elke pagina spat.

What do we think of when we think of literary critics? Enlightenment snobs in powdered wigs? Professional experts? Cloistered academics? Through the end of the 20th century, book review columns and literary magazines held onto an evolving but stable critical paradigm, premised on expertise, objectivity, and carefully measured response. And then the Internet happened. From the editors of Review 31 and 3:AM Magazine, The Digital Critic brings together a diverse group of perspectives—early-adopters, Internet skeptics, bloggers, novelists, editors, and others—to address the future of literature and scholarship in a world of Facebook likes, Twitter wars, and Amazon book reviews. It takes stock of the so-called Literary Internet up to the present moment, and considers the future of criticism: its promise, its threats of decline, and its mutation, perhaps, into something else entirely. With contributions from Robert Barry, Russell Bennetts, Michael Bhaskar, Louis Bury, Lauren Elkin, Scott Esposito, Marc Farrant, Orit Gat, Thea Hawlin, Ellen Jones, Anna Kiernan, Luke Neima, Will Self, Jonathon Sturgeon, Sara Veale, Laura Waddell, and Joanna Walsh.

The New Aesthetic and Art

  • Categories: Art

The New Aesthetic and Art: Constellations of the Postdigital is an interdisciplinary analysis focusing on new digital phenomena at the intersections of theory and contemporary art. Asserting the unique character of New Aesthetic objects, Contreras-Koterbay and Mirocha trace the origins of the New Aesthetic in visual arts, design, and software, find its presence resonating in various kinds of digital imagery, and track its agency in everyday effects of the intertwined physical world and the digital realm. Contreras-Koterbay and Mirocha bring to light an original perspective that identifies an autonomous quality in common digital objects and examples of art that are increasingly an important influence for today's culture and society.

Traditionally, security has been the realm of the state and its uniformed police. However, in the last two decades, many actors and agencies, including schools, clubs, housing corporations, hospitals, shopkeepers, insurers, energy suppliers and even private citizens, have enforced some form of security, effectively changing its delivery, and overall role. In The Securitization of Society, Marc Schuilenburg establishes a new critical perspective for examining the dynamic nature of security and its governance. Rooted in the works of the French philosophers Michel Foucault, Gilles Deleuze and Gabriel Tarde, this book explores the ongoing structural and cultural changes that have impacted securi...
