Björk and Michel Gondry's Networked Authorship available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. This thesis theorizes the 1990s music videos by Icelandic performer Björk and French director Michel Gondry as examples of post-cinematic practices contingent on a non-hierarchical distribu-tion of authorial agency and intention. Using the rubrics of minor literature and minor cinema as defined by Gilles Deleuze and Félix Guattari, this thesis asks: How can we desubjectify the aesthetic contributions which constitute the music video as a heterogeneous media form to reflect the collaborative creative processes associated with a post-cinematic condition? How can a collabora-tive and networked understanding of authorship in the music video still acknowledge the contribu-tions that minor subjects make to mainstream media forms through their political positioning? Breaking with the narrative and representational habits of classical cinema, HUMAN BEHAVIOUR (1993), ARMY OF ME (1995), ISOBEL (1995), BACHELORETTE (1997), AND JÓGA (1997) appropriate techniques from the avant-garde and reflect the non-linear structuring of data-base aesthetics. From this perspective, rather than focusing on a singular author as the definitive source of creative agency, this study will theorize authorship as a recursive, networked process of assemblage involving various elements of the music video (e.g., songs, audiovisual images, performances). As signifiers for the contribution of singers, filmmakers, producers, and actors, these compositional fragments consequently dictate the autopoetic structuring of the music video as a post-cinematic object. Accounting for the positioning of Björk as a post-colonial subject, this thesis will conclude by showing how Iceland, a nation often perceived as peripheral to Europe, consistently informs the representation of nature and technology in the artist's audiovisual work. Through strategies of cultural hybridization, Björk reconciles the dichotomies between urban and rural, as well as local and global elements that underscore her oeuvre.

Download and read online ebook Bjork's Biophilia write by Nicola Dibben. This book was released on 2014-09-25. Bjork's Biophilia available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. On its release in 2011 Biophilia was acclaimed as the first "app album" and the birth of a new music format. It was greeted as the way forward for musicians and developers, at a time when the traditional album format was under threat. Biophilia is an album for mobile digital devices, conceived and creatively directed by Björk, one the world's most innovative musicians, and executed by a team including interactive artists, developers, and designers. Here, Nicola Dibben draws on her experience as a member of the creative team working on the app suite to provide an insider's perspective on the creative process and product. The entire project's conception and realisation are traced, drawing on dozens of original interviews and participant observation. Dibben explores questions including: the new potential for interactivity and multi-sensory experience of music; the implications of Biophilia's visualisation of music for audio-visual aesthetics and music education; immersive versus 'distributed' modes of listening; and the creation of a curated artistic vision that counters the fragmentation and lack of multimedia experience associated with music consumption via MP3 download. The result is a brilliant exploration of a cutting-edge musical work and offers a unique perspective on the creative processes and ambitions of one of pop music's most compelling figures.
