Music/City
Author: Jonathan R. Wynn
Publisher: University of Chicago Press
ISBN: 022630566X
Category : Music
Languages : en
Pages : 321
Book Description
Austin’s famed South by Southwest is far more than a festival celebrating indie music. It’s also a big networking party that sparks the imagination of hip, creative types and galvanizes countless pilgrimages to the city. Festivals like SXSW are a lot of fun, but for city halls, media corporations, cultural institutions, and community groups, they’re also a vital part of a complex growth strategy. In Music/City, Jonathan R. Wynn immerses us in the world of festivals, giving readers a unique perspective on contemporary urban and cultural life. Wynn tracks the history of festivals in Newport, Nashville, and Austin, taking readers on-site to consider different festival agendas and styles of organization. It’s all here: from the musician looking to build her career to the mayor who wants to exploit a local cultural scene, from a resident’s frustration over corporate branding of his city to the music executive hoping to sell records. Music/City offers a sharp perspective on cities and cultural institutions in action and analyzes how governments mobilize massive organizational resources to become promotional machines. Wynn’s analysis culminates with an impassioned argument for temporary events, claiming that when done right, temporary occasions like festivals can serve as responsive, flexible, and adaptable products attuned to local places and communities.

Studies have indicated that 75% of what an audience learns and remembers is a result of what they see, while 13% comes from what they hear.

The majority of these mini-dramas run 3-5 minutes in length. Each introduces the theme of the gospel lesson in the Cycle B lectionary. Written with wit, wisdom, and humor, they help to plant the scriptural message in an unforgettable, poignant, contemporary application. - Minimal preparation is required - Few props needed - 2-4 characters are involved in each sketch Your wonderful drama left us all hungering for more. I assure you that the Lord is truly working through you.
