Emos are people who feel emotions intensely and identify with emo music styles. They wear tight jeans, short-sleeved band t-shirts, and hair covering their face. Both emo girls and guys wear black eyeliner, mascara, foundation, and lipstick. Emos feel disconnected from society but find solace in others who also feel like outsiders, often gathering at emo concerts featuring rock or metal music. Goths have a similar style to emos with black outfits, tight jeans and tops, and short hair. They wear black makeup including mascara, eye shadow, and lipstick. Goths are more comfortable in public than emos and usually hang out in couples. Punks
Music recommendation is broken - automatic music recommenders make mistakes that no human would ever make. In this talk, we will explore why recommenders make such dumb mistakes and we will explore some of the new ideas coming from recommendation and music researchers to help make music recommendations better.
Slides from the SXSW 2009 Panel. Speakers: Paul Lamere from The Echo Nest, and Anthony Volodkin from The Hype Machine.
The document discusses different target audiences for music, including metalheads, punks, goths, emos, teenage girls, and teenage couples. It describes their associated music genres, fashion styles, and cultures. Metalheads listen to classic rock, blues rock, and classical music and have political lyrics. Punk music is loud and aggressive, played by small bands. Goths have dark styles and listen to gothic rock and darkwave. Emos represent sadness and listen to punk-influenced indie rock. Teenage girls like romance genres and breakup songs, while teenage couples prefer happy music and movies.
Heavy metal emerged from proto-metal bands in the 1970s and rejected mainstream culture, embracing individuality. It was influenced by progressive rock and electric blues and focused on themes of battle and death. Heavy metal philosophy is based on fascination with death and suffering and finding meaning in life without absolute religious beliefs. Different metal genres developed like speed metal, thrash metal, and death metal that had different musical structures and lyrical themes. Heavy metal culture developed a devoted fan base known as "metal heads" who separated themselves from mainstream society through shared fashion, values, and musical devotion.
The document discusses plans for a new heavy metal music magazine targeted at people aged 16-25. It analyzes some existing similar magazines, including Metal Hammer, Kerrang!, and Brave Words & Bloody Knuckles. Metal Hammer and Kerrang! are discussed in terms of their target audiences, publication schedules, prices, and promotional techniques. Brave Words & Bloody Knuckles is noted as being similar to the planned magazine but only available internationally.
Heavy metal fans have developed a distinctive subculture known as "metalheads" or "headbangers", characterized by styles of long hair, clothing, and devotion to bands. Though mostly young white males, metal fandom is growing more diverse. Fans strengthen their identity through shared experiences at concerts, in magazines/websites, and by adopting elements of fashion and imagery from bands. Common themes in metal lyrics include death, sex, horror, fantasy, and romantic tragedy. Visual elements like album art and logos also help express bands' images.
The document discusses the emo subculture, including its origins in the 1990s-2000s, how emo is used to describe emotions representing freedom of expression, and common traits of those who identify as emo such as introversion. It provides examples of popular emo bands and songs. The document also notes that psychologists view emos as introverted and that their poetry is often dark, depressing, and inspires sadness. However, it warns that some aspects of emo culture can be dangerous by glorifying suicide. The overall message is that individuals should be happy with who they are and their beliefs.
When challenged to research about a topic that would never get covered in the English classes, Rodrigo chose the Heavy Metal Culture. Here is the ppt she used on her presentation to the class.

When challenged to research about a topic that would never get covered in the English classes, Rodrigo chose the Heavy Metal Culture. Here is the ppt she used on her presentation to the class.
The document discusses two subcultures - emo and goth. Emo is connected to emotional music and focuses on emotional lyrics and screaming. Emo fashion includes tight jeans, band t-shirts, and worn-out shoes. Goth culture is interested in death and draws inspiration from Gothic literature. Goth fashion features black clothes, pale skin, dark hair and makeup. Victorian goth is a substyle that takes influences from Victorian era fashions like corsets and dresses historically accurate to the period.
The document discusses the origins and characteristics of heavy metal music. It began developing in the 1960s-1970s, featuring distorted guitars and dense bass and drum sounds. Key bands that helped establish the genre include Led Zeppelin, Black Sabbath, and Metallica. Heavy metal fans, also known as metalheads, typically dress in black or blue jeans and leather jackets, and often have tattoos and body piercings. Some popular metal bands mentioned include Metallica, AC/DC, Iron Maiden, and Slayer.
Heavy metal music developed in the late 1960s and 1970s in the UK and US, featuring extended guitar solos, emphatic beats, and loud volumes. It gained popularity despite criticism, and numerous subgenres emerged in the 1970s-1980s. Heavy metal music videos typically feature quickly edited shots, flashing lights, close-ups of live performances, dark and abstract imagery involving death, religion, and the devil, with dark colors and recurring shots adding to the frantic pace in a way reminiscent of horror films. The videos for "The Number of the Beast" by Iron Maiden, "Enter Sandman" by Metallica, and "Bloodline" by Slayer exemplify these conventions through their use
Heavy metal developed in the late 1960s from blues-rock and psychedelic rock, with thick, distorted sounds and loud volumes. Early bands like Led Zeppelin and Black Sabbath attracted large audiences despite criticism. In the 1970s, Judas Priest removed blues influences as Motörhead added punk elements and increasing speed. Metal bands developed a complex rhythmic style using riffs and rhythmic cells. Visual imagery also became important to metal bands through album art, logos, clothing and long hair, which symbolized rebellion.
Heavy metal developed in the late 1960s and early 1970s out of genres like blues rock. By the early 1990s, many heavy metal bands had evolved into other rock genres. Some important events in heavy metal history include the 1968 release of "Born to be Wild," considered the first heavy metal song, and British metal band Iron Maiden's 1980 self-titled album. Heavy metal is traditionally characterized by loud, distorted guitars and wild hairstyles. Bands like Metallica sometimes challenge conventions with more subdued appearances. The target audience for heavy metal is typically teenagers and young adults aged 13 to 30 who are attracted to the genre's adrenaline-fueled sound.
The document provides an overview of the heavy metal subculture, including its history, key elements, and expansion. It describes the subculture as consisting of three main groups - musicians who create the music, audiences who follow the rules of the subculture, and mediators like record labels who bring musicians and audiences together. It notes that heavy metal expanded in the late 1990s as metal heads sought to be more extremist, bringing higher musical standards that attracted more audiences and mediators. Key events and bands that shaped the evolution of metal genres like traditional metal, thrash metal, and death metal are also outlined.
The document discusses the evaluation of a student's media product which was a newspaper.
It summarizes how the student used conventions of real newspapers by adopting a broadsheet layout format and font style to make the product seem realistic. It also discusses how the student developed conventions by targeting niche audiences and challenges conventions through unique design elements like the 3D logo.
The student learned from audience feedback that minor text changes were needed and positive feedback validated the work. Different technologies were used at various stages - from research online to construction using software to evaluation using presentation tools. The document discusses how technological convergence allows using different devices for multiple tasks.
Comparison of my products to existing media productsAmna Qaiser
