Abstract:
“Bohemian Rhapsody” é uma cinebiografia de Freddie Mercury, lançada no Brasil, em novembro de 2018. Essa produção pode ser analisada enquanto produto histórico, possibilitando discussões acerca de suas vivências nas relações com a Síndrome da Imunodeficiência Adquirida (AIDS). Freddie, conviveu com o Vírus da Imunodeficiência Humana (HIV) e morreu em 1991, vítima de uma broncopneumonia depois de interromper seu tratamento. Para desvelar o mundo-vida de Freddie Mercury, elegeu-se a metodologia qualitativa na perspectiva da Educação Audiovisual da Sexualidade. Como forma complementar dessa proposta alternativa metodológica, as análises foram ancoradas na fenomenologia. Nas décadas que sucederam a descoberta do vírus, as pessoas com HIV eram estigmatizadas e marginalizadas, motivo que o levou a esconder sua sorologia. Hoje, na contemporaneidade, observamos que as vivências sexuais de homens com HIV/AIDS que fazem sexo com homens, permanece pautada em tabus, estereótipos e desinformação, causando nessa população, desconforto e negação para viver sua sexualidade.

Abstract:
Es el momento en que la banda Queen inicia su intervención en el memorable concierto de rock Live Aid para combatir el hambre en Etiopía, celebrado el 13 de julio de 1985, en el estadio Wembley de Londres; recital considerado como el mejor hasta la fecha y la actuación de Queen, con un Mercury glorioso, ante un espléndido escenario, calificada como la actuación más brillante de la historia del rock. Un flashback nos remonta a los orígenes del grupo y nos guía por la trayectoria vital de su líder, Freddie Mercury.Como dicen los protagonistas, Queen es un grupo de inadaptados que toca para inadaptados. Pero también es la familia que apoya incondicionalmente, sin juzgar, y que alienta la creatividad liberadora de sus miembros. A través de la música de Queen reviviremos las luces y las sombras de las décadas de 1970 y 1980, y entenderemos las circunstancias sociales que fraguaron el “mejor grupo británico de todos los tiempos” (título otorgado tras un sondeo realizado por la emisora BBC Radio 2 en 2007).

Abstract:
The sound systems of the world’s languages adapt to biomechanical, aerodynamic and cognitive pressures associated with sound production and discrimination. Such pressures help to yield the greater frequency of some sound types and the reduced frequency of others. In this paper I explore such adaptation, pointing out that sound systems not only adapt to such pressures in ways that are clear from a typological perspective, but that they adapt in more subtle ways that are only now becoming apparent. Furthermore, I survey a host of recent studies suggesting that sound systems likely adapt to some pressures that vary across populations and environments. While the extent of adaptation to such variable pressures is certainly debatable, the mere existence of phonetic/phonological adaptation to pressures that differ across populations is increasingly well supported. The evidence in support of such adaptation ranges from large-scale quantitative data, to biomechanical modeling, to the speech of Freddie Mercury.

Abstract:
A partir da apresentação ao vivo do grupo Queen, na edição 2015 do Rock in Rio, quando a banda inglesa de rock contou com um ex-integrante de reality show musical como vocalista, traça-se uma observação de controvérsias para pensar de que maneira as questões de gênero, com foco nas masculinidades, podem ser importantes ferramentas para pensar a construção do valor na música pop. A problemática trata das diferentes performances do masculino dos dois vocalistas (Freddie Mercury, o cantor original da banda, e Adam Lambert, no Rock in Rio 2015), evidenciando lugares distintos nas corporalidades da música pop, bem como a noção de trajetória como um aparato capaz de evocar princípios de autenticidade para os artistas. O procedimento metodológico foi a observação da performance a partir de três categorias de controvérsias: origens, gêneros musicais e corpos. A coleta de dados foi feita a partir da observação do YouTube, Twitter e de blogs LGBT. Como resultado inicial, indicamos que a governabilidade dos corpos numa performance, necessariamente, precisa reencenar outras performances; passando pela dicotomia em torno da presença numa atualização do ritual performático no qual noções como arquivo e repertório – propostas por Diana Taylor (2013) – são importantes para discutir as inúmeras possibilidades de tensões e controvérsias nesses espetáculos.

Abstract:
The chapter focuses on the consumption motives and marketing strategies of a specific category of contemporary magical substances, that is, the expanding range of vitamin (and mineral) products. The consumption of these products—located ambiguously in the demarcation of ‘medicine’ and ‘nutrition’ (symptomatically also characterized as ‘protective foods’)—has increased very dramatically in the Western world during the last two decades. The trend is most articulated among the educated middle classes whose diets are hardly characterized by nutritional deficiencies. Thus the grounds for the consumption boom must lie elsewhere, indicating other kind of motivational factors. On the other hand, even though the marketing strategies of these products cannot be conceived of as the manipulative force causing the increase in consumption, the advertising arguments promoting the use of vitamin products may be analysed as (implicit) reflections and interpretations of the actual motivational factors. The analysis of these advertising arguments—related to the historical roots of nineteenth century patent medicine advertising—acts as a starting point for the interpretation of the motivational factors of consumption (of these products) then contextualized in the changing meaning structure of ‘food’—broken down into four dimensions: fuel, poison, medicine and (oral) ‘pleasurable’ (corresponding to the German term Genussmittel)—as it has evolved from early twentieth century to the present configuration. As it appears, the tendency manifests a shift in the meaning of ‘food’ giving an ever more emphasized role to the duality of medicine/poison. This tendency is expressed not only in the ‘nutritional scientific’ discourse—especially in its mass mediated versions—but also within two other related (and more recent) discursive lines: ‘environmental’ and ‘fitness & beauty’ discourses, as I have named them. The interesting point is, as I am arguing in this chapter, that the motivational disposition towards the use of vitamin products fits well with the behavioural patterns outlined by these three discursive lines. Whether these products are used as substitutes or supplements, their specific magical character appears to lie in their future orientation and specifically in their supposed efficiency in keeping the evils to come afar—in the last instance, postponing not only ageing but death itself. In this respect the use of vitamin products resembles the more traditional case of talismans and amulets protecting against the evil eye ( mat occhio) etc. Who wants to live forever … Freddie Mercury ( Queen)

Full text
Abstract:
By considering examples of representations of AIDS from across the cultural spectrum the thesis addresses the processes by which a popular understanding of the condition in this country has been constructed. Whilst many of the representations do not originate in the UK the increasing level of communicative interaction of global culture mean that there is a constant exchange across national boundaries, as there is across many other discourses, but which at particular moments have a local impact which can be considered in itself. In the light of this, the thesis considers representations circulating within the realms of: advertising and photography centred on the photograph of David Kirby taken by Therese Frare, newspaper coverage of the death of Freddie Mercury, Hollywood film including Philadelphia, health education advertisements, and art through a series of paintings by Derek Jarman. The starting point for this process in each chapter is the analysis 'of specific iconic images positioned within particular discursive frames. AIDS, as a socially significant locus of meaning around issues of disease and sexuality rather than just a strictly medical syndrome of opportunistic diseases, has so far been largely confined to the mediated realm of representation for many people in this country. Because the constituency most affected in this country is that of Gay men these representations have been continuously shaped by broader ideological concerns relating to issues of power, sexuality and legitimacy. To develop a useful sense of the implications of this across the cultural spectrum and to offer a contribution to the field of knowledge the thesis addresses the primary sites of media culture that people engage with on a regular basis to offer a reading not confined to one discursive order. From such an analysis an assessment is made of those factors that can be seen to articulate an understanding of the condition beyond the limits of anyone cultural formation working within the matrix of the dominant cultural order

Abstract:
This chapter analyses and interprets the singing of Freddie Mercury. It is argued that the singer utilised four predominant voice types—powerful, gritty, sincere, exaggerated—which were defined by combinations of vocal techniques. These voice types often aligned with stylistic contexts but were also utilised to emphasise the structural dynamics of songs, such as moving from a lighter tone (e.g. sincere) to a powerful tone at the onset of a pre-chorus. Furthermore, Mercury’s deployment of these voice types in incongruous stylistic contexts (e.g. a breathy tone in a hard rock song), along with the ambiguity as to whether he possessed a ‘true’ voice, may be read as queer vocal strategies that challenge heteronormative conventions of male rock singing. It is argued that his vocal aesthetic was influenced by Liza Minnelli and Marilyn Monroe—theatrical voices—which underscores his ability to present a distinct performance identity.
