Re: [313] Detroit techno thesis
Ack, I think I missed the boat on this before it was removed. Sounds like it was a very well put together piece of work. In a distantly related matter, after procrastinating far too much, I finally picked up a copy of Dan Sicko's book, Techno Rebels at my local Barnes and Noble store last week. Thanks to my work schedule (and the advent of the Internet) I rarely have time to actually sit down and read through an actual book, but it only took a couple of pages of browsing to decide to purchase this and MAKE time to read. I hope to have it completed before Memorial Day weekend and perhaps find myself a bit more educated on matters relating to Techno, electronic music, and its fascinating history. ;) Matt E-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Web Site: http://www.magicmattkelly.com - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

[313] Detroit techno thesis
Dear 313, I have recently (today) finished the rough draft of my thesis on Detroit techno. It deals with some of the things that are brought up so often on this list, particularly race. I interviewed some incredible people including Dan Sicko, Brendan Gillen, and Anthony Shakir, and I dug through a lot of old archives and microfilms. It can get kind of theoretical at points, but I guess that's the way it goes with academic work. Still, I did my best to make it readable. Please consider this my contribution to the many threads on techno and race. And if you feel like it, let me know what you think. I'm open to revisions and suggestions. http://www.umich.edu/~btausig/thesis.htm sincere thanks to everyone, ben tausig - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I've been thinking about doing a work like this for sometime...but because i'm a political scientist I was going to sit on it until I got tenure. This is publishable, with some minor work. Because it is publishable I make the following suggestions to you and everyone else: 1. Either take this off of the web, or somehow watermark it so no one else can claim it. If this were a small essay--like the thing I wrote about the demf sometime ago--I wouldn't ask you to take such a position. but this is something that can easily contribute to scholarship AND to your own pockets. 2. Get people to ask permission to use it...or even to send the url to others. THere are two people I think would really like this piece, for example, but I don't think it is appropriate in this case to send it until I get the ok from you. This way you know (at least a little) who has access to it. 3. DEVELOP THIS DEVELOP THIS DEVELOP THIS. this is good enough to make a career out of if you work at it. and if others on this list are similarly inclined, this type of work can lead to the sort of cultural revolution i've alluded to elsewhere peace lks - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: [313] Detroit techno thesis
I read it as well and I thought it was very good but it can definitely use a spell check. Other than that I don't have many comments to make on it as it is. Excellent job.
