Book Synopsis Ethno-Aesthetics of Surf in Florida by : Anne Barjolin-Smith
Download or read book Ethno-Aesthetics of Surf in Florida written by Anne Barjolin-Smith and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-09-21 with total page 342 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ethno-aesthetics of Surf in Florida discusses surf and music as glocal sociocultural constructs. Focusing on Florida's unexplored surfing culture, the book illustrates how musical experience begets representations about the world that highlight ways of acting and being of various sociocultural communities. Based on the conceptualization of ethno-aesthetics, this ethnographic study provides an analysis of the Space Coast surfers community's collaborative effort to build social cohesion through their musicking. This transdisciplinary research in American Studies draws upon various theoretical perspectives from both the humanities and social sciences, including ethnomusicology, social psychology, and sociolinguistics, to propose new ways of exploring the links between surfing and musicking. This monograph looks past the myth of iconic 1960s Californian surf music to show how, as a result of the glocalization of surfing, the musicking of Floridian surfers has allowed them to express their subjectivities and to make sense of their world. This book contributes to the debate on the disputed notions of identity and representations by establishing connections between a local expression of the surf lifestyle and its music. It proposes theoretical models that explain cultural hybridization, appropriation, and belonging in surfing. It also develops concepts and notions, such as surfanization, surf strand, lifestyle crossover, and identity marking, to illustrate how global practices, such as surfing, are endowed with various modes of expression exemplified by the emergence of unique regional subcultures of surfing.

Book Synopsis Surfing, Sex, Genders and Sexualities by : lisahunter
Download or read book Surfing, Sex, Genders and Sexualities written by lisahunter and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-04-27 with total page 205 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sex, gender and sexuality have played an important role in shaping the culture of surfing and are central themes in the study of sport and movement cultures. Rooted in a rich precolonial history, surfing has undergone a modern transformation shaped by visual culture, commodification, sportization, mediatization and globalization, arguably all linked to sex, gender and sexuality. Using the physical culture of surfing as its focus, this international collection discusses the complex relationships between surfing, sex/es, gender/s and sexuality/ies. This book crosses new theoretical, empirical and methodological boundaries by exploring themes and issues such as indigenous histories, exploitation, the marginalized, race, ethnicity, disability, counter cultures, transgressions and queering. Offering original insights into surfing’s symbolism, postcolonialism, patriocolonial whiteness and heteronormativity, its chapters are connected by a collective aspiration to document sex/es, gender/s and sexuality/ies as they are shaped by surfing and, importantly, as they re-shape the many, possibly previously unknown, worlds of surfing. Surfing, Sex, Genders and Sexualities is fascinating reading for anybody with an interest in the sociology of sport or gender and sexuality studies.

Book Synopsis Global Tattoo Magazine - 10th anniversary by : Federico Harbaruk
Download or read book Global Tattoo Magazine - 10th anniversary written by Federico Harbaruk and published by Federico Harbaruk . This book was released on 2023-01-20 with total page 119 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tattooing is a way of life! Yes, this phrase may sound cliché, but that's not true. For millennia human beings have used their skin to permanently shape messages: The cavemen with their war marks, members of the tribes representing their status within the group, and elders asking the gods for protection. In modern times these reasons have been left aside to mean something purer: individual expression. People who wear tattoos in these times do so with the firm intention of visually showing what they carry inside, or of being the canvas of incredible artistic pieces. That's why tattoos can't be considered a fashion anymore, but a way of life. Global Tattoo Magazine is born precisely from this concept, to show the world the culture behind tattoos and what tattooed people all over the world want to represent. In Global Tattoo Magazine, you can find all the information you need about the most modern tattoo techniques, new styles, and current trends, so you can capture on your skin what you carry inside. Likewise, we will provide you with everything you need to know about the most acclaimed tattoo artists in the world, where you will be able to see part of their portfolio and find out what makes them so unique. Global Tattoo Magazine is designed to be the main reference for all those who want to get tattooed for the first time (or even for the fifteenth time), as there is a vacuum of information especially created and designed for the tribe of tattooed. This void can be noticed when many people, before getting a tattoo, look for information about techniques, style, care tips, and others, but almost all the information you get is focused on the tattoo artists, and, after all, it is the clients who will carry these pieces of art permanently engraved on their skin. A person with tattoos will always attract attention and steal glances, and we want to be part of that process, of guiding each tattooed in every step of getting the most incredible tattoo on their skin, after all, each one is much more than a simple canvas for the artist, he is a person who wants to show his individuality to the world. With the advice of Global Tattoo Magazine, these individuals can make the best realistic decisions about their next tattoos, to take with them an emblematic piece that truly represents them. Without a doubt, Global Tattoo Magazine seeks to be a source of real, current, and objective information about the world of tattooing, to be able to offer the advice and advice that readers really need, and even to be able to give them inspiration and motivation they need before getting their next tattoo. And we, at Tattooed!, will do our best so that you, who want to shout to the world who you really are with a piece that represents you, can take the step of tattooing your skin in the right way, giving you those tips you need so much, and answering those questions you may not dare to do. Don't be afraid to stain your skin, after all, the only thing that matters is that you have the freedom to express your personality as you see fit, and, from now on, we will be with you every step of the way.
Book Synopsis Extreme Landscapes of Leisure by : Patrick Laviolette
Download or read book Extreme Landscapes of Leisure written by Patrick Laviolette and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-04-15 with total page 227 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recent years, there has been an increased engagement throughout the social sciences with the study of extreme places and practices. Dangerous games and adventure tours have shifted from being marginal, exotic or mad to being more than merely acceptable. They are now exemplary, mainstream even: there are a variety of new types, increasing numbers of people are doing them and they are being appropriated and have infiltrated more and more contexts. This book argues that hazardous sports and adventure tourism have become rather paradoxical. As a set of activities where players and holidaymakers are closer to death or danger than they would otherwise be, they are the complete opposite of normal games or vacations. Adventure sports and tours reverse the general definition of a holiday as being an escape from the seriousness of everyday life, as in most cases, they are innately serious, requiring as they do 'life or death' decision-making. Beginning with the rise in colonial explorations and moving on to consider the Dangerous Sports Club of Oxford, this book examines the increasing phenomena of adventure sports such as bungy jumping, cliff jumping or 'tomb-stoning', surfing and parkour within a framework of positive risk. It explores how certain assumptions about knowledge, agency, the body and nature are beginning to coalesce around newly developing spheres of social relations. Additionally, extreme games have become activities that are germane to the dawning of green social thought and so the book also addresses issues that deal with the intimate connections that exist between pleasure and the moral responsibility towards the environment.
Download or read book Surf's Up written by Carolina Valdez and published by JMS Books LLC. This book was released on 2017-11-04 with total page 67 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Native American Raven is a successful architect and businessman. He’s also an accomplished surfer who, out of fear, typically hides his orientation and is extremely discreet about any sexual liaisons. His haircut and clothing are those of a white man, and his employees and friends know nothing of his early life on a northern California Indian reservation. Now, six years after leaving the rez, a young man named Hunter literally surfs back into Raven’s life. At first Raven doesn’t recognize the guy who, as a boy, was his best friend, and also his first love. When he does finally recognize Hunter -- now penniless, drunk, and a lover of the “glam look” -- he sees him as a loser, an embarrassment, yet their reunion will shake some of Raven’s most closely held beliefs. But is he up to the challenge? Will he release those stubborn beliefs and open himself to live life more fully and openly?
