The document discusses Adorno and Horkheimer's theory of cultural industry and pseudo-individuality, and applies it to different music artists. It analyzes how One Direction fits the theory as the band was constructed by a record label to appeal to audiences. However, Ed Sheeran is presented as the opposite as he was not mass-produced and has maintained his authentic image without influence from corporations.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

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

Adorno And Horkheimer
1.
2. Throughout time, there have been an increasing number of new pop bands
emerging within the music industry. The record companies modifies
each band to create a small but noticeable difference in order to enable
the audience to distinguish the each band. Within the culture industry
Adorno and Horkheimer discuss "Pseudo Individual" which theorizes
the lack of originality amongst cultural products consumed by the
masses and the use of minor modifications to cultural products to
create a false sense of individuality. Cultural industry allows people to
become 'massers' and to be easily manipulated by capitalist
corporations and authoritarian government. This can be seen in bands
such as Spice Girls in which the girl group present their ‘pseudo
individuality’ through the use of names such as ‘baby spice’ or ‘posh
spice’.
3. ONE DIRECTION
Adorno and Horkheimer's Culture Industry theorizes that the music
industry uses an ‘assembly line’ style of method in order to create an
artist. This means the artists are constructed for the audience so the
record label can sell more albums as the artists fits into the mould that
appeals to the audience more.
Within ‘One Direction’ we can easily see the music industry’s ‘assembly
line’ style of creating a boy band as they share common attributes with
other groups that also fits into Adorno and Horkheimer’s theory. The 4-
previously 5- member group was put together by Simon Cowell during
‘The X Factor’ so his record label – Syco- could sell them better and
target them to a specific group. This has shown to be a great success
with ‘One Direction’ selling many albums and memorabilia throughout
their 5 year run.
4. ED SHEERAN
It can be suggested Ed Sheeran is opposite to Adorno and Horkheimer’s
theory and therefore goes against this idea. Ed Sheeran has not been
mass produced by a record label in order to appeal to a wider audience.
His image has not been influenced or changed since he became popular
in the music industry - Sheeran has maintained the same image
throughout. He is not similar to any other solo artist as he frequently
uses a loop machine to create his music live and he does not rely on a
band to back him up when he performs in concerts. Additionally he
does not have a capitalist corporation behind him making merchandise
of him nor a film of him, contrasting with One Direction.
