This new book fully expands our understanding of how historically marginalized groups are represented in music videos. Author Michael Austin explores the ways in which Asian and Pacific Islanders, Indigenous communities, the LGBTQIA+ community, drag performers, religious minorities, and the incarcerated are represented. The book also covers several contemporary controversies involving music videos, especially cultural appropriation. Importantly, this book also explores the ways in which marginalized communities use music videos as a way to find their own voice and represent themselves.

How to Do Things with Words

This work sets out Austin's conclusions in the field to which he directed his main efforts for at least the last ten years of his life. Starting from an exhaustive examination of his already well-known distinction between performative utterances and statements, Austin here finally abandons that distinction, replacing it with a more general theory of 'illocutionary forces' of utterances which has important bearings on a wide variety of philosophicalproblems.

Music Video Games

Music Video Games takes a look (and listen) at the popular genre of music games – video games in which music is at the forefront of player interaction and gameplay. With chapters on a wide variety of music games, ranging from well-known console games such as Guitar Hero and Rock Band to new, emerging games for smartphones and tablets, scholars from diverse disciplines and backgrounds discuss the history, development, and cultural impact of music games. Each chapter investigates important themes surrounding the ways in which we play music and play with music in video games. Starting with the precursors to music games - including Simon, the hand-held electronic music game from the 1980s, Michael Austin's collection goes on to discuss issues in musicianship and performance, authenticity and “selling out,” and composing, creating, and learning music with video games. Including a glossary and detailed indices, Austin and his team shine a much needed light on the often overlooked subject of music video games.
