Doing Cultural Studies: The Story of the Sony Walkman (Culture, Media & Identities, Vol. 1) (Culture, Media and Identities series)
by Paul du Gay
from Sage Publications Ltd
This book introduces the substantive and theoretical strands of contemporary cultural studies through the medium of a particular case study: that of the Sony Walkman. Through the Walkman example, Doing Cultural Studies shows how and why cultural practices and institutions have come to play such a crucial part in our lives, and introduces the central ideas, concepts, and methods of analysis involved in doing cultural studies. The authors of this unique work show how the Walkman is a typical cultural artifact and medium of modern culture, and studies how the key cultural processes are discerned. Examining the Walkman culturally leads to exploration of how it is represented, what social identities are associated with it, how it is produced and consumed, and what mechanisms regulate its distribution and use. This unique book offers students insights not only into the basic approaches of cultural studies, but also into how cultural studies can be used to understand the way culture works in the context of our everyday lives.

by Michael Ochs
from Taschen
A fascinating survey of cover art (TASCHEN's 25th anniversary special edition) Record covers are a sign of our life and times. Like the music on the discs, they address such issues as love, life, death, fashion, and rebellion. For music fans the covers are the expression of a period, of a particular time in their lives. Many are works of art and have become as famous as the music they stand for?Andy Warhol's covers, for example, including the banana he designed for The Velvet Underground. This special edition of Record Covers presents a selection of the best 60s to 90s rock album covers from music archivist, disc jockey, journalist, and ex-record publicity executive Michael Ochs's enormous private collection.
