On The Roots Of Media Ecology: A Micro-History And Philosophical Clarification, Corey Anton
On The Roots Of Media Ecology: A Micro-History And Philosophical Clarification, Corey Anton
Peer Reviewed Articles
This paper provides a brief review of media ecology. It is partly a micro-history of the tradition, and partly a philosophical clarification of how and why “systems-theory orientations,” literacy studies, and the rapid spread of new media were all essential to its germination, growth, and proliferation. Finally, the paper offers concluding remarks regarding social constructionist thought and how it relates to the media ecology tradition.

New Hollywood: Classical Hollywood In A New Light, Wesley D. Buskirk
New Hollywood: Classical Hollywood In A New Light, Wesley D. Buskirk
Cinesthesia
This essay analyzes the manifestations of America’s post-1960 film industry, more specifically the rise of “New Hollywood.” In response to governmental intervention of the studio system, the popularization of commercial television, and the influences of the French New Wave, Hollywood’s emerging “film generation” embraced the commercialization of the star auteur and the blockbuster picture. George Lucas and Steven Spielberg, sons of the “Hollywood Renaissance,” capitalized on the potential of “high concept,” “ultra-high-budget” feature films and their associated synergetic marketing systems, a phenomenon referred to as the “blockbuster syndrome.” Jaws, a pioneering New Hollywood megapicture directed by Spielberg, exhibits the “Lucas-Spielberg” …
“I’M Trying To Do Something Important”: The Materialist Ideology Of Birdman, Nicholas Beardslee
“I’M Trying To Do Something Important”: The Materialist Ideology Of Birdman, Nicholas Beardslee
Cinesthesia
A strong set of values dictate societal expectations and popular discourse. Though these values seem to overshadow any notions that do not agree with them, outliers still remain. It is from the disparate perspectives that the most can be learned, and one film in particular provides a very valuable lesson. Primarily in content but also in form, Alejandro G. Iñárritu’s Birdman subtly challenges the dominant value of materialism by means of its main character Riggan’s desperate search for material success, through which he begins to realize the futility of his efforts.

I Want To Believe: Kant, The X Files, And Cosmopolitical Unity, Jeremy Knickerbocker
Cinesthesia
Kant’s final chapter of Anthropology from a Pragmatic Point of View, puts forth certain observations concerning the characteristics of human beings. In order for these observations to have rational validity as a proposed ‘human nature,’ however, Kant admits that it is necessary to compare between humans and another species of rational animal. Thus in an effort not to succumb to a naively anthropocentric thesis of nature, Kant still falls victim to his own anthropocentric privileging of rationality as a strictly human capacity—at least terrestrially speaking. While Kant fails to recognize any other earthly species as a rational animal, he nevertheless …
Into Darkness: Representing American Anxieties, Alison Pettibone
Into Darkness: Representing American Anxieties, Alison Pettibone
Cinesthesia
The film Star Trek Into Darkness (Abrams, 2013) examines what it means to be human and the fears that are latent within the American subconscious through layered storytelling coupled with the special effects that are now conventional in big budget studio productions. There are many elements within the film that lend themselves to the intricate narrative weaving including mise-en-scene, sound and especially characters. All of these elements combine to create an engaging science fiction thriller that also subtly comments on America’s global status and anxieties about the future.

Phragmites Australis Haplotypes Present In Two Populations On San Salvador Island, Bahamas, Skylar Thompson
Phragmites Australis Haplotypes Present In Two Populations On San Salvador Island, Bahamas, Skylar Thompson
Honors Projects
Phragmites australis, common reed, is an invasive species present throughout North America. It is also found on San Salvador Island in the Bahamas. The spread of Phragmites is a serious issue for the health and biodiversity of wetland habitats throughout the world, but invasive haplotypes are threatening such communities as they choke out other species, including native Phragmites. This study sought to discover the Phragmites australis haplotypes present on San Salvador Island, and consequently determine the risk of invasion for the island wetlands. Of the 10 samples from two separate sites that were taken, all were the Gulf Coast (I) …

Does Materialism Predict Body Hair Removal Among Undergraduate Males And Females?, Brianna Ballew
Honors Projects
Previous research indicates that materialistic women are more likely to want to alter their bodies (Henderson-King & Brooks, 2009). This study focuses specifically on the relationship between materialism and body hair removal. We collected information about the frequency of body hair removal, reasons for hair removal, and materialism (Richins & Dawson, 1992). Findings indicate that males and females do not significantly differ on materialist values. Correlational analyses reveal that for women, materialism is related to frequency of hair removal for several body sites; for men, however, materialism was related to body hair removal for only a single site. Qualitative analyses …
