Historically the dance club is both an anthropological and architectural phenomenon. The cultural and economical evolution of society progressively transformed the idea of entertainment, and consequently the spaces in which it is formed and shaped. Today discotheques are hardly designed by architects, but rather temporary occupations of spaces which are dedicated to other functions. Through the photographs of Giovanna Silva, a selection of interviews and critical texts, Nightswimming explores this fascinating world from the 1960s until today.

Popular music scholars have long been interested in the connection between place and music. This collection brings together a number of key scholars in order to introduce readers to concepts and theories used to explore the relationships between place and music. An interdisciplinary volume, drawing from sociology, geography, ethnomusicology, media, cultural, and communication studies, this book covers a wide-range of topics germane to the production and consumption of place in popular music. Through considerations of changes in technology and the mediascape that have shaped the experience of popular music (vinyl, iPods, social media), the role of social difference and how it shapes sociomusical encounters (queer spaces, gendered and racialised spaces), as well as the construction and representations of place (musical tourism, city branding, urban mythologies), this is an up-to-the-moment overview of central discussions about place and music. The contributors explore a range of contexts, moving from the studio to the stage, the city to the suburb, the bedroom to festival, from nightclub to museum, with each entry highlighting the diverse and complex ways in which music and place are mutually constitutive.

Bu Bir Aşk Şarkısı Değil: Video Sanatı ve Pop Müzik İlişkisi sergi kataloğu, video sanatının pop müzik ile ilişkisini ele alıyor ve aralarındaki etkileşimlere odaklanıyor, 1960’lardan günümüze pop müzik ile video sanatının kesiştiği yolların izini sürüyor. Serginin küratörü F. Javier Panera Cuevas’ın video sanatı ve pop müzik ilişkisini ele alan metni ile Pop İçinde Sanat / Sanat İçinde Pop, Histeri ve Din, Rock ve Kavramsal Sanat: ‘Müzisyen Olmayanlar’ ile ‘Sanatçı Olmayanlar’ Karşı Karşıya, Rock ve İkizi: Bir “Alet Çantası” Olarak Pop Müzik ve Dans Müziği Politikaları başlıklı beş bölümden oluşan sergi kataloğu, sergide yer alan işlerle ilgili detaylı bilgiler içeriyor. Bu Bir Aşk Şarkısı Değil, müzik ile görsel sanatlar arasındaki ilişkinin son dönemde müzisyenler ile sanatçıların kendilerini egemen kültürel sistemin aktörü olarak konumlandırdığı veya o sistemde ardında, Greil Marcus’un deyişiyle, “silindikten sonra hafızamızda derin bir iz bırakan ruj lekesi gibi” geçici ama yoğun izler bırakarak küçük direniş biçimleri benimseyip muhaliflere dönüştüğü başka bir sanat tarihi üzerine düşünmeye teşvik ediyor. ---- This is Not a Love Song: Video Art and Pop Music Crossovers exhibition catalogue traces the genealogy of the relations between video art and pop music from the 1960s to today in which video art and pop music crossed roads. The catalogue features a substantial essay on video art and pop music relationship by curator F. Javier Panera Cuevas. The five chapters in the catalogue Art in Pop, Pop in Art, Hysteria and Religion, ‘Non-Musicians’ vs ‘Non-Artists’ Rock and Conceptual Art, Rock and Its Double: Pop Music as a ‘Toolbox’ and Dance Music Politics present a deeper look into the works in the exhibition. This is Not a Love Song suggests that the relations between music and the visual arts force us to reconsider another history of art, in which musicians and artists can position themselves either as actors in the hegemonic cultural system or as critical radicals whose traces, as Greil Marcus would say, can be as intense and as short-lived 'as a lipstick stain that is removed but leaves a profound imprint on our memory.

How do we know music? We perform it, we compose it, we sing it in the shower, we cook, sleep and dance to it. Eventually we think and write about it. This book represents the culmination of such shared processes. Each of these essays, written by leading writers on popular music, is analytical in some sense, but none of them treats analysis as an end in itself. The books presents a wide range of genres (rock, dance, TV soundtracks, country, pop, soul, easy listening, Turkish Arabesk) and deals with issues as broad as methodology, modernism, postmodernism, Marxism and communication. It aims to encourage listeners to think more seriously about the 'social' consequences of the music they spend time with and is the first collection of such essays to incorporate contextualisation in this way.

Imelda Romualdez Marcos is a Filipino politician who was first lady of the Philippines for twenty-one years, during which time she and her husband are widely believed to have illegally amassed a multibillion dollar fortune, the bulk of which still remains unrecovered. Her personal wealth was estimated at $24 billion in 1979, and today it is thought to be at least $30 billion. She married Ferdinand Marcos in 1954 and became first lady in 1965, when he was elected president of the Philippines. During her tenure as first lady, Marcos owned three thousand pairs of shoes. She imported giraffes?just because she could. Her habit of initiating ostentatious architectural projects using public funds came to be described in common parlance as ?Imeldific.? In 1966, Ferdinand Marcos issued Executive Order no. 60, establishing the Cultural Center of the Philippines and appointing its board of directors. The board would elect Imelda Marcos as chair, giving her legal mandate to negotiate and manage funds for the center. The CCP is considered the central symbol of Imelda Marcos?s ?edifice complex.? Its enormous modernist concrete structures were designed by Filipino architect Leandro Locsin. Imelda Marcos declared the center the ?sanctuary of the Filipino soul.? In these pages, Giovanna Silva inspects the heritage of the country, illustrating the robust relationship between architecture and history.

Crafting design in Italy is the first book to examine the role that craft played in the history of post-war Italian design, one the most celebrated episodes in twentieth century design. Craft was vital to the development of design in Italy from 1945 to the 1980s, and yet as often as this storyhas been told, it is incomplete. Missing is the overlooked but multiple role that craft played - as a method of manufacture, set of disciplines and traditions, materials and ideas.This book examines the multiple ways that craft shaped Italian design from 1945 to 1981. It is organised in four chapters, each of which focus the different ways that Italy's architects engaged with craft in the context of the bigger socio-economic, cultural and political changes of the period, fromthe imperatives of post-war reconstruction to the explosion in luxury in the economic "miracle" of the 1960s, to the experimentation of Radical Design and the postmodern adventures of Studio Alchimia and Memphis. It uses a series of case studies on design areas including product, furniture, fashion,glass and ceramics to bring to light previously unknown makers and objects as well as re-examine design "icons" such as Gio Ponti's Superleggera chair and Ettore Sottsass's Carlton bookcase. This project uses the concept of craft to offer a radical re-reading of post-war Italian design. It also setsout to provide a paradigm for using craft-based approaches and analysing design and craft's relationship in other cultures and contexts.
