Summary

Music Video Evolution explores the dynamic changes in music videos, driven by the digital landscape and shifts in viewing habits. The book moves past artistic interpretation to focus on platform statistics and concrete viewing data, revealing how distribution channels from MTV to YouTube have reshaped this art form. One intriguing shift is the democratization of production, where accessible technology allows independent creators to bypass traditional gatekeepers. However, this also leads to a battle for audience attention, resulting in shorter, visually-driven content designed for viral consumption. The book provides a comprehensive historical context, tracing music videos from their experimental beginnings to their current prevalence. Analyzing the impact of digital editing software and mobile devices, it shows how technology affects video aesthetics and distribution. Chapters progress from the pre-internet era and MTV's influence to the digital revolution and the rise of streaming services. Finally, it looks to the future, examining virtual and augmented reality's role and offering insights for artists and the music industry navigating this evolving media. Uniquely, Music Video Evolution emphasizes quantifiable data and statistical trends, differentiating itself from works that primarily focus on artistic merit. By drawing connections between music, film, media studies, and sociology, the book offers a nuanced understanding of music videos' cultural and economic significance. It takes an analytical and informative approach, examining the identity crisis of the music video and its transformation into a fluid form of visual content.

    Portrait of a Woman - Art...

    Summer in Paris, 1783. The Louvre steps, too hot and no breeze, the air electric with the heady anticipation of a coming storm: the year's Royal Salon. Men and women of every estate are united under art: to love it, to despise it, to gossip endlessly about it. 
     
     
     
    Exhibiting at the Royal Salon was not for the faint of heart, and it was never intended for women. 
     
     
     
    Enter Adélaïde Labille-Guiard . . . 
     
     
     
    Born in Paris in 1749, Adélaïde Labille-Guiard rose from shopkeeper's daughter to an official portraitist of the royal court—only to have her achievements reduced to ash by the French Revolution. While she defied societal barriers to become a member of the exclusive Académie Royale, she left behind few writings, and her legacy was long overshadowed by celebrated portraitist and memoirist Élisabeth Vigée-Lebrun. 
     
     
     
    But Adélaïde Labille-Guiard's story lives on. In this engaging biography, Bridget Quinn applies her insightful interpretation of art history to Labille-Guiard's life. Quinn expertly blends close analyses of paintings with broader context about the era and inserts delicately fictionalized interpersonal scenes that fill the gaps in the historical record.

    By " assembling" some of the most fascinating figures in world history, Meeting of Minds provided a groundbreaking opportunity for audiences to be exposed to ideas by way of a medium not normally known for its intellectual vigor. Portrayed by actors, panelists engage in stimulating round-table discussions that were conducted like any other talk show but featured prominent influencers from bygone generations— not just philosophers and politicians, but poets, playwrights, and presidents. From activists and artists to international leaders— both famous and infamous— these conversations are unfailingly witty, thought-provoking, and genuinely entertaining.
    An innovative series, Meeting of Minds remains one of the most delightful ways of gaining historical perspective ever devised, and these original soundtrack recordings capture the intellectual and spirited debates of the episodes hosted by Steve Allen. The panelists featured in this volume are English naturalist Charles Darwin, American poet Emily Dickinson, Italian astronomer Galileo Galilei, and feared conqueror Attila the Hun.

    The Abbey of Einsiedeln is one of the most important baroque monastic sites. On the site of the cell of the hermit Meinrad a Benedictine monastery was built in the early Middle Ages. Over the course of time, a pilgrimage developed, first to the chapel built on the site of Meinrad’s cell, then to the first image of the Virgin Mary, consecrated by the Lord, in this chapel. Even today, the chapel with the miraculous statue of the Black Madonna is still the destination of a pilgrimage that radiates far and wide. The present abbey was built in the Baroque period according to the plans of Brother Caspar Moosbrugger, with the church in the centre and the monastery square in front. The abbey has survived all the storms of time, the Reformation and the suppression during the French invasion, and still houses a lively Benedictine monastery.
