This document discusses several ways that music videos are used to promote artists and their music. Music videos allow artists to promote their image and style to generate more sales and attention for their label. They also provide opportunities to promote directors, extend income through royalties and platforms, and create synergies between music and other products. Independent artists have more limited budgets but can still promote through low-cost, self-produced videos posted to online platforms.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

The purpose of the music video
1. The Purpose of the Music Video
Promotion
Promotionof a band/artist
Music videosare usedasa wayto promote the artistsself-image throughthe meansof avisual short
filmtoa songfromthe artistsalbum.Musicvideosare alsousedto generate money forthe label
that the artist issignedto. The majorityof artiststendto use theirname or a recognisable symbol
for themselvesintheirmusicvideosasameanof identification.
An example of thisisthe RussianfeministprotestpunkgroupknownasPussyRiot.Theyare mostly
knownforbeingseenwearingcolourful balaclavasasa meansof identificationintheirfew music
videos(althoughasof recentthere are musicvideosshowingtheirfaces). Theirvideoscoincide with
theirextremelypoliticalsongsthattendtocentre solelyonfeminism, LGBTQ+and theiropposition
to VladimirPutinandrecentlyDonaldTrumpwiththe release of theirsong“Make AmericaGreat
Again”.
Anotherexampleisthe shockrockartist Alice Cooperwhose careerhasspannedover50 years. His
musicvideosreflectheavilyonhisexperimental andhorrororientatedstyle.He ismostcommonly
seenwithhisbandinhismusicvideos(theyare usuallyvideosthatare takenduringhislive shows
althoughthere are several whichare actual musicvideos) whilstalsousuallywearingaleatherjacket

goingdiagonallythrough (althoughhe usuallydoesnotwearthe eye makeupinhismusicvideos).
The videostakenatlive showsusuallycarrya runningtheme throughout,inseveral songshe wears
hisiconicstraightjacket(mostcommonlywornduringBalladof DwightFry).
2. Promotionof director/filmmaker
For MarilynManson’smusicvideo‘The Mephistophelesof LosAngeles’, FrancescoCarrozzini was
askedto directit. He has alsodirectedmusicvideosforartistssuchas Lana Del Ray. Whenhe directs
musicvideos,he tendstofocusmainlyonthe artist withextreme close-upsandavarietyof camera
angles. (Canbe seeninDel Ray’s‘Ultraviolence’). He hasalsodirectedseveral artfilmsandfeature
documentariesbetween2007 and 2016. He has hostedmultipleexhibitionsforhisphotography
whichinclude arange of popiconssuch as LindaEvangelista,TyraBanksand Naomi Campbell.
Producers’ Strategies
Major label bands/artists
Mainstreambandsand artists are marketedwithheavilypublicityandare backedwitha large
budgetfortheirhighproductionmusicvideos.Artistsandbandsthattendto have videoswithabig
productionvalue are usuallyproducingmusicinthe mainstreamandpopulargenres,forexample
Pop.Whena mainstreamartistor bandreleasesamusicvideothere are a plethoraof components
that have gone intoto reflectthe artists/bandsunique style andtaste.More commonthannot,
there will be alarge varietyof propsand costume changesas well as carefullythoughtout
choreographyandinmost circumstances,adetailedstoryline.
An example of thisisthe musicvideotoaccompanythe song‘Vladthe Impaler’bythe band
Kasabian.The videoisdirectedbypopularcomedianRichardAyoadeandincludesNoel Fieldingas
the feature role.The musicvideoissaid(bythe bandsleadguitaristandvocalistSergioPizzorno) to
be the trailerforan old70’s horrorfilmtitledVladthe Impaler,whichiswhythe videoisonly 2:13 as
the wanteditto be the lengthof a typical trailer.
3. Independentbands/artists
Independentartistswill be limitedtowhattheycando and produce,consideringtheydonothave a
surplusof moneytocreate highqualitycontentwith. Anexample of anindependentbandare the
groupLady Bird whowere recentlysignedtothe recordlabel knownas‘Girl Fight’.Thislabel was
newlylaunchedbythe Britishpunkbandknownas‘Slaves’whocreatedthe label tobe about
“…great bands,bigtunesanda DIY ethicinheritedfromthe band’spunkrockroots”.1
Asof late,
there isno musicvideoforLadyBird’sfirstsong ‘Spoons’,howeverthe official audioisavailable to
listentoon YouTube,Spotify,DeezerandBBC Music.
Self-producedartists
Self-producedartiststendtocreate musicvideosbythemselvesdue tominimalornobudgetat all.
By makingtheirownvideoandpublishingitonvideosharingwebsites,the cankick-starttheircareer
and attemptto drawin a fanbase andget noticedbycompanies.Anexample of thisisthe female
frontedpunkbandknownas The Nectars.Theyhave recentlyuploadedtheirfirstmusicvideoto
theirfeature song‘Heaven’.“Despite risinglabelinterestthe band,whoformedinlate 2016, like to
do thingstheirownwayand afterscoutingstudiosforfree recordingtime andself-creatingvideos,
these cultfashionistasare forgingafree spiritedDIYapproachto theirfirstreleases”2

4. ‘Art’and statementthroughmusicvideos
Some artistsprefertomake musicvideosthatconveyacrossa message orthat are a formof visual
art, rather thanjustsingingthe song.Drag queenandartistSharon Needlesisknownforher
abstract drag aestheticandhermusic.Most recentlytheyreleasedthe videoforthe song‘Andy

pieceswhilstincludingactual audioof Andyhimself.SharonisalsodressedasAndyduringthe
beginninginarecreationof the famousvideoof AndyeatingBurgerKingfora 1970’s commercial.
Music videoscanalsohave a message,whetheritbe political,togetthroughto theiraudience.As
previouslymentioned,the RussianbandPussyRiotare anextremelypolitical bandwhospeakup
aboutPutinand recentlyDonaldTrumpintheirmusicandthe videos.Examplesof thisare the music
videosfor‘Make AmericaGreatAgain’and ‘Putinwill teachyouhow tolove’.
Extension of Income& Outlets/Platforms
Each time an artist’ssongis playedonthe radioor whentheirmusicvideoisplayedtheywill receive
royalties(payment) inexchange fortheirproduct. Usually,the mainstreamartistwillcontinuetotop
the charts as theirsongsare continuouslyplayedduring the firstfew monthof theirrelease.
Undergroundandalternative artistsrelymore onmediaoutletssuchasYouTube to getthem
noticed. Itisharder fornon-mainstreamartiststogetairplayonmajorradioand televisionmainly
because the companiesbehindthemwill be takingariskif theychoose to playtheirmusic.By
playingthe songsof mainstreamartists,there islittletonoriskin how it will be receivedbythe
audiences. The bestwayforartiststo make moneywouldprobablybe toposttheirofficial videos
and official audioontoYouTube totryand getnoticedandcompaniesandgaina fanbase. Recently,
Facebook hasbecome a helpful platformformusiciansandartiststogetnoticedsimplydownto
