Choreographing South Asian Touch

With over 40 years' experience in magic and as one of only a handful of professional magic teachers worldwide, Justin Higham is in a unique position to write about the challenges magicians face in learning and performing magic. This book offers valuable insights into why magicians find it hard to perform impromptu: why they forget their tricks and why things so often do not pan out as expected. 'I have learned the trick, the method, the patter, the misdirection, so why is it not working for me? Drawing from over 3500 individual magic lessons given by Higham over the past 12 years, this guide will help the intermediate student reach their goal of becoming an authentic, spontaneous and confident magician. The real secret as revealed here is to master magic through improvisation.

"Brian Fauteux's definitive study of satellite radio in North America reveals SiriusXM as both a monument to radio's resilience and continued cultural significance and a prime example of how monopoly and financialization wreak havoc on the music industry."--Elena Razlogova, author of The Listener's Voice: Early Radio and the American Public "This is an important and groundbreaking book that traces how one audio service became a multimodal digital platform. Essential reading for scholars of radio and audio media, media industries, and media technologies."--Alexander T. Russo, author of Points on the Dial: Golden Age Radio beyond the Networks "Deeply attentive to the dynamics of media industries and policymaking, Fauteux shows how satellites became central to music distribution over the last thirty years. His highly engaging book details the rise of SiriusXM and powerfully reveals how orbit serves as a domain of culture, value, and commodification in radio and streaming industries."--Lisa Parks, author of Cultures in Orbit: Satellites and the Televisual "Fauteux orbits dazzlingly around his subject matter, covering satellite music's shifting value as a commodity, an industry, and a source of cultural connection during its brief history. A must-read for anyone interested in the culture, technology, and business of twenty-first-century music circulation and reception."--Jason Loviglio, author of Radio's Intimate Public: Network Broadcasting and Mass-Mediated Democracy ​

Writing on Raving is the definitive mix of voices from the Brooklyn underground rave scene and beyond, providing fresh language for the shared and infinitely varied experience of dancing through the night until the morning.
New York rave culture is having a moment. The music, mostly, is techno, certain flavors of which became the soundtrack to a dancefloor culture that is queer in a different way to house music centered gay nightlife.&nbsp;Wark, Mak and Beery want to document and annotate and celebrate, but also critique, this world in the making. Writing on Raving centers the New York scene, but isn’t limited to it.
This is a book for all of those who need the rave. Who need to dance. Who have at some point needed that beat in their lives. This is a book for all those who have journeyed through the night, through sound, through movement, through chemistry, into other places, other times, other encounters.
This seeking gives us hours, years, on the dance floor to think about why we rave, to locate these reasons in our bodies and the space around us. But the rave is not the place to articulate them. It is too loud; our friends are too distracted, or too high. At the afters, tired and drained and covered in schmutz, we think some more. We look around at our raver friends, and wonder: How did we get here? What happened to us? What is this tentacular, thrashing, swelling thing that we all made together? That thing that is now slumped and aching and coming down now into our fragmentary, singular lives?
Between all of us, there are many answers to such questions. Wark, Mak and Beery have gathered their favorite ones to share in this first-ever anthology of writing on raving. 
Writing on Raving is a night of readings and performances about nightlife, dancing, and techno, about why we love these things, but also how that love is complicated. It brings together a diverse range of writers whose dispatches from dance floors, bedrooms, and their own histories hold a mirror to a community whose cultural preservation is still emergent. The series was founded in 2021 by Geoffrey Mak, Zoë Beery and McKenzie Wark and has included events in Brooklyn, San Francisco, and Los Angeles.

Studies in Popular Culture

Worlds of the ring is a groundbreaking exploration of the interwar European circus scene. Focusing on the German Sarrasani and British Bertram W. Mills' circuses, it examines how these enterprises animated the nation and its others for popular audiences - and highlights the correlation between the modern circus's evolution and modes of imperialism and nationalism. Circuses and their grand arenas shaped the entertainment industry between the wars, and excited both small-town and big-city audiences. The book looks at this cultural history of European circuses between 1918 and 1945 from a transnational perspective. Through the lives of different people involved in the industry, it illustrates how the interwar era's interrelated international and national forces shaped the modern circus. It probes the mechanisms at play in depicting foreign and exotic worlds in the circus through the concept of Orientalism, and contributes a new and timely perspective to current debates on race, ethnicity and cultural impacts of empire. Based on a variety of sources including newspapers, legal documents, advertisements, economic correspondence, photographs and performers' archives, the volume offers a new understanding of circus as a form of interwar popular culture; its globalising forces; and the circus's ties to European imperialism at the beginning of the twentieth century. It makes an original and significant contribution to the history of popular culture and extends the understanding of cultural globalisation in the interwar era.
