In the past three decades television soap operas have been used as a means of healtheducation and persuasion. In recent years, the proliferation of entertainment televisionworldwide has made the soap opera a powerful source of educational and social messages.One of the most critical global health issues of today is the need to reduce HIV/AIDSinfection, particularly on the continent of Africa. In the 1990s, the country of Tanzaniabroadcast a highly effective radio soap opera to promote HIV/AIDS prevention. In 2000,Tanzania again employed the use of the soap opera to address HIV/AIDS as well as othersocial issues, this time through television. Our research indicates that the Tanzaniantelevision soap opera employed in this effort, Maisha, effectively promoted HIV/AIDSprevention among television viewers. In particular, those who were more involved withMashaka, the star of Maisha, were more powerfully influenced by the health messagescommunicated through the programme. The implications of this research for usingentertainment for HIV/AIDS prevention are discussed

Full textAbstract:
This article introduces the concept of ‘the everyday implausible’, asserting that, between 1930 and 1960, US radio serial aesthetics produced a tug-of-war between the familiar and the unfamiliar that was simultaneously radical and reactionary. This aesthetic created a space for the listener to place new versions of herself within the narrative, inviting the imagined woman-at-home to re-envisioning the possibilities of reality. However, re-envisioning reality produced its own set of limitations. The sonic features of the radio serial soundscape created imaginary spaces within the home, but these imaginary spaces were ‐ as often as not ‐ also homes, making the potential of escape wholly illusory. In giving attention to the specific aesthetic features of these programmes, this article interrogates the meaningful work produced by a sparse soundscape, alongside an emphasis on domesticity and emotional conversation.

Following the growth, since 2016, of new fiction and non-fiction sound series in a large part of Ibero America, thanks to podcast and radio on demand, the task of analyzing the history of radio theater as a genre in Chile, from its roots and sociocultural importance to the new ways of producing and thinking about the genre in the 21st century is conducted. On the basis of documentary information, consisting of press archives, audios of radio theater scripts and the few studies on radio and radio theater, three stages can be elucidated: the golden age (1940-1970); the rebirth of radio theater (2003-2015) and the genre current boom period (2016 to present). While there are certain continuities between the first and second period, despite the temporary and technological breakthrough, in the third stage there is a new way of creating and designing these productions, with plots that respond to social and political struggles of groups that are invisible or discriminated in the public space, as well as in the way of circulating and disseminating them, without the radio being the key place par excellence for transmission as happened with the old radio soap operas. Keywords: Radio Drama; Fiction; History; Chile; Podcast.

Full textAbstract:
For several decades, Brazil’s Grupo Globo, which controls radio, TV, and newspaper, served as the hegemonic voice controlling the audio, visual, and narrative dimensions of social phenomena that formed and informed social, political, and cultural attitudes among Brazilians. Of all their divisions, none has been more influential than the TV Globo network. Lately, with the popularization of free access to digital media, such as those offered by YouTube, TV Globo’s viewership has substantially declined. This paper discusses the concept of controlling images to analyze examples of TV Globo’s constructed visual image of the hypersexualized Afro-Brazilian female body in the network’s soap operas. It also analyzes cases of TV Globo’s constructed narrative over another subaltern Brazilian group: the LGBTQIA+ community. Recently, Afro-Brazilian and Queer-centric YouTube channels have attracted subscribers by emphasizing content centered on negritude, gender politics, and place of speech while deconstructing and de-normalizing Eurocentric and patriarchal controlling images. Against examples of TV Globo’s normative discourse of the past decades, the YouTube channels discussed in this paper represent alternative mediums for agency, visibility, and unbiased representations of gender and racial identities in Brazil.

Abstract Given the soap opera’s potential to engender behaviour learning and meet the information needs of farmers, this paper sought to establish farmers’ propensity to use soap opera for sourcing agricultural information in Southwest Nigeria. A multi-stage sampling procedure was used to draw representative samples (150 farmers) in this study. Using interview schedule, data were elicited on farmers’ personal characteristics, awareness about the use of soap opera, perceived benefits of soap opera and proclivity to use it for sourcing agricultural information. Data were analysed using descriptive (frequencies, percentages, means) and inferential (Chi-square and PPMC) statistics at P = 0.05. Farmers’ age, years of schooling and household size were 52.1 ± 11.4 years, 10.5 ± 4.6 years and 5.9 ± 2.4 persons, respectively. Majority of the farmers (86.0%) had heard about soap opera and 76.0% heard of different soaps in the last couple of years and more than half (53.3%) had heard of different soaps from both radio and television. However, 90.7% did not know any kind of soap opera that was used to promote agriculture. More than half of the farmers (56.7%) had high inclination for sourcing agricultural information using soap opera. There was a significant correlation between farmers’ perceived benefits (r = 0.36; P = 0.00) and proclivity to use soap opera for sourcing agricultural information. Farmers’ positive proclivity to use soap implies that soap opera strategy has potentials to benefit farmers as a source of agricultural information; therefore, soap opera should be considered as veritable avenue for agricultural information dissemination in Southwest Nigeria.

In recent years, due to the remarkable explosion of the Internet and technology as well as the globalization orientation, language teaching has witnessed many new and innovative teaching methods and materials in ESL classrooms. Many teachers have taken advantage of this trend and made the language classroom more attractive with visual aids and interactive teaching methods using technology. Moreover, besides traditional classroom contexts with textbooks, instructors or teachers, whiteboards, and markers, learners themselves nowadays have better access to many other channels of language learning, such as Youtube, one of the most internationally popular platforms, Netflix, BBC, Ted Talks, the news, radio podcasts, etc. where they can actually learn the language as well as an approach to the content they want at their own homes. In fact, it is undoubtedly true that in recent days, it is very difficult to find a teenager or young adult without a smartphone or Internet access, and young Vietnamese students are not excluded. The sharp increase of high school and university students who own a Youtube or Netflix account and the amount of time they spend watching TV shows, viral video clips, soap operas, or movies every day made the researcher wonder if we could use these endless captivating sources of materials to actually enhance learners’ motivation and listening ability in Vietnamese ESL classrooms.

Full textAbstract:
This study examines the production and consumption of a BBC World Service soap opera called New Home, New Life that is produced for the radio listening public of Afghanistan. Ethnographic fieldwork was undertaken at the BBC's radio production unit in northern Pakistan and in Pashtun communities within rural and urban areas in south-east and central Afghanistan. Critically informed by a material culture perspective, this thesis promotes a relational approach to the study of mass media production and consumption, this being perceived to represent an advance on studies that ignore spheres of production in favour of audience consumption. The choices and resources that listeners invest in radio services is addressed from the standpoint of the structuring of relations of trust, which in turn is related to issues of popularity, conflict and domestic radio use. The structures and prosaic daily patterns of radio soap opera production are addressed, with analysis being deepened to examine the production definition and audience appropriation of the soap opera's fictive context and characters. Here, issues of episodic and melodramatic structure also come to the fore. The representation of politics and religion represents a critical aspect of production, consumption and BBC impartiality, yet beneath policy it is shown that a far more social and negotiated form of production occurs. Following this analysis, the issues of localisation, romance and producer-consumer articulations are considered. Finally, the sociality of the soap opera is traced through audience gossip and the impact that emotive storylines have upon male and female listeners. Here, the issues of gender and space emerge in analytical focus.

Full textAbstract:
This thesis aims to analyse Argentinean radio broadcasting in the 1950s and especially how this medium issued the so-called radio theatre that the audience received in their everyday life. More precisely it is investigated how radio theatre in the 1950s is remembered today, both by listeners who took part in these broadcasts and how it is remembered in the media. Of special interest is what is articulated as specific about its form and how radio theatre was integrated in and changed everyday life. The audience was not only able to receive radio theatre but was also able to contribute with their own stories. Argentina was one of the pioneering countries in the field of broadcasting, performing its first radio broadcast on August 27, 1920, in the city of Buenos Aires. The Argentinian radio broadcasting was a place of entertainment, information, social and political discussions. One of the main changes in Argentina radio broadcasting happened in 1929 in Buenos Aires. This change was influenced by the first broadcast of radio theatre. In the beginning, radio plays were about stories of “gauchos” (in English cowboys) and folklore, provoking enthusiasm amongst the audience. Argentina radio theatre continues to develop with the introduction of gender-oriented goals which became significant successful. The radio play began to cover the whole family`s interest. Argentina radio theatre caused a significantly change in its audiences’ customs throughout the country. This thesis research has adopted the Media Memory studies theories and is based on Bertolt Brecht’s theory of radio as well as McQuail`s audience theory. Additionally, this study is situated and looked at in a wider framework of previous research conducted by Barfiel, Hilmes & Loviglio, Brandt and Crook. To reach the objective of this study, 17 semi- structured qualitative interviews have been conducted with Argentinians who lived in different cities and listened to radio plays during the 1950s. The results of this research project demonstrate that nowadays, radio theatre audiences from the 50s reflect on and feel nostalgic about the way they used to listen to radio dramas in those days. More specifically, about waiting for the broadcast to start, gathering with the family around the radio set, or talking to friends or relatives about the episode of the day. In addition, radio play audiences reflect positively on the opportunity to meet in person the actors of the radio plays when they were on tour in Argentina. Moreover, this study illustrates that nowadays, Argentinian media also remember radio theatres through publishing articles that refer to them.

Previous issue date: 2006-09-25<br>Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior<br>This research analyses the soap opera in its aspects related to the image
presentation as hegemonic item in the audience s ability to perceive things. It is
chosen to understand soap opera not in its aspects of daily narratives, but as
imagery narratives created by bodies that represent themselves as mediators in the
process of communication, functioning as main starting-point in the image production.
In this way, the concept of body and body language is used. With it this
process starts, expressing the relation of cumulativity and complementarity to media,
reinforcing the soap opera appealing. It is perceived that the body is seen on the
soap opera as commodities and exploiting fact. This paper/thesis selects the male
image because of the visible set of public opinion in the last years.
The questions of body image through history are investigated in order to
understand in a broad sense its changes in relation to cultural process and trying to
highlight the evidences that lead to see it as emerging bodies.
The images are narrated/described from the understanding of their origin to
questions that point out their symbolic aspects, which belong to the sensibility that
creates links among bodies.
Using Harry Pross, Martin Barbero, Esther Hamburger, Denise Bernuzzi de
Sant Anna, Régis Debray as theoretical support, it can be seen that along with the
soap opera several media are used as a support of it. In this sense, magazines that
write about cinematographic and TV celebrities are analyzed.
Being aware that there is no TV without bodies before and off cameras, for
example, biological bodies and body-image, we understand that is in the relation
among audience, body and image that the soap opera keeps on<br>A presente pesquisa analisa a telenovela em seus aspectos voltados para a
apresentação da imagem como item hegemônico na captação do olhar do
telespectador. Opta-se pela compreensão da telenovela não no aspecto das
narrativas cotidianas, mas sim tendo como base as narrativas imagéticas geradas
por meio de corpos que se configuram como mediadores no processo de
comunicação, atuando como ponto de partida central na produção das imagens.
Nesse sentido, é utilizado o conceito de corpo e suas linguagens. Nele iniciase
esse processo, a partir do qual se expressam as relações de cumulatividade e
complementaridade entre as mídias, reforçando os atrativos da telenovela. Percebese
o corpo exibido na telenovela como produto mercadológico e fator de exploração.
O presente trabalho faz um recorte com ênfase no masculino, pela tendência
evidenciada nos últimos anos.
As questões de construção de corpos ao longo da história são investigadas,
compreendendo-se de maneira abrangente as etapas de suas mudanças
decorrentes do processo da cultura e buscando evidências, que conduzem a
percebê-los como corpos emergentes .
As imagens são narradas, partindo do entendimento de sua gênese até
questões que as conduzam em seus aspectos simbólicos, os quais fazem parte da
sensibilidade que gera as raízes dos vínculos entre os corpos.
Em diálogo e com apoio nos autores Harry Pross, Martin Barbero, Esther
Hamburger, Denise Bernuzzi de Sant Anna, Régis Debray, constata-se que
paralelamente à novela em si, acumulam-se e complementam-se diversas mídias de
apoio. Nesse sentido, são analisadas, também revistas voltadas para as
celebridades cinematográficas e televisivas.
Ciente de que não há televisão sem corpos antes e depois das câmeras, ou
seja, corpos biológicos e corpos-imagem, entende-se que é na cauda da relação
triádica telespectador, corpo e imagem que o ambiente da telenovela se mantém

Previous issue date: 2009-05-25<br>Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior<br>A study of the cultural meanings of Brazilian soap operas, - the survey of the cultural and sign construction of the Brazilian soap opera, a tele-visual novel or series leading to convergence and a miscegenated culture.

Previous issue date: 2008-05-30<br>Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior<br>The research on which this thesis is based sought to understand the ways of speaking about lesbianity in the soap opera Senhora do Destino (Globo Network, 2004-2005) from the perspective of discursive analysis. Television, and particularly soap operas, are a daily social practice very commom among Brazilians. The soap operas produced in Brazil are a highly popular and widely accessible source of information and entertainment. In addition, they play an important role in the production, maintenance and dissemination of selected perspectives on social questions, especially those considered taboo as in the case of lesbianity. Unlike earlier soap operas, Senhora do Destino approached the subject directly and continuously, enhancing the meanings attributed to lesbianity due to the variability of the repertories and opinions of the characters along the story. The constructionist perspective together with a feminist reading allowed me to understand the notion of lesbianity as a social construction in which the discourses and the language adopted vary according to the social and historical context. Taking this epistemological and methodological approach into account, I question the inevitability of the existence of the category lesbianity, searching for ways to look for its denaturalization, a path shared by both constructionism and feminism. The analysis was centered on discursive practices, understood as language in action and also the understanding that there are always multiple, situated and dialogical versions of conversation. For its singular characteristics, the soap opera functions as a propitious context for the definition, delimitation and resignifying of social problems . The results of this research suggest parallel effects of the introduction of the issue of lesbianity in the soap opera. On one hand, the process of assimilation of the lesbian category provokes a broader familiarity with the issue in society, as well as the presence of codes/models that allow the legitimacy of same sex relations. On the other hand, the legitimizing/acceptance processes occur in ways that do not provoke the destabilization of social norms and hegemonic models. The discursive rhetoric of the soap opera is constructed from the idea of couple , in which the primary reference is the naturalized heterosexual expression of sexuality and/or love relation, which is employed, without questioning, vis-à-vis the lesbian relationship on view<br>A pesquisa que resultou nesta tese teve por objetivo compreender as formas de se falar sobre a lesbianidade na telenovela Senhora do destino (Rede Globo, 2004-2005) a partir de uma análise discursiva das narrativas intra-novela. A televisão, e especialmente a telenovela, constitui-se como uma prática social bastante presente no cotidiano da população brasileira. As novelas produzidas no Brasil ocupam lugar privilegiado e de fácil acesso como fonte de informação e entretenimento, além de desempenharem um papel importante na produção, manutenção e veiculação de determinadas versões sobre questões sociais, sobretudo em assuntos tabus como é o caso da lesbianidade. Diferentemente de suas antecessoras, a novela Senhora do Destino abordou o tema de forma direta e contínua, ampliando os sentidos atribuídos à lesbianidade, em função da variabilidade dos repertórios e dos posicionamentos apresentados pelas personagens no decorrer da trama. A postura construcionista, aliada a uma leitura feminista, permitiu compreender a noção de lesbianidade como uma construção social na qual os discursos e a linguagem empregados variam segundo o contexto social e histórico específico. Tendo esse enquadre teórico-epistemológico como um olhar que perpassa todo o trabalho, questiono a inevitabilidade da existência da categoria lesbianidade, abrindo caminhos para buscar sua desnaturalização, caminho compartilhado tanto pelo construcionismo quanto pelo feminismo pelo caráter político que lhes é particular. O foco de análise se deu a partir das práticas discursivas, entendidas como linguagem em ação e a compreensão de que as versões são sempre múltiplas, situadas e dialógicas. A novela, por suas características peculiares, funciona como um contexto favorável à definição, delimitação e ressignificação de problemas sociais. Os resultados desta pesquisa apontam para um duplo efeito na introdução da temática lesbianidade na novela. Se, de um lado, o processo de assimilação da categoria lésbica provoca uma maior familiarização do assunto na sociedade, bem como a circulação de códigos/modelos que propiciam a legitimação de relações afetivo-sexuais entre pessoas do mesmo sexo, de outro, o modo como ocorrem os processos de legitimação/aceitação não propicia uma desestabilização de normas sociais e de modelos hegemônicos. A retórica discursiva da novela é construída a partir da idéia de casal , cuja referência é sua forma heterossexual, expressão naturalizada de sexualidade e/ou relação amorosa submetida, sem qualquer problematização, face à relação lésbica apresentada

Chapter 3 focuses on the 1930s and 1940s when American influence was already recasting Rio’s commercial thoroughfares with the help of Brazilian merchants. Retailing in Rio, São Paulo, and other Brazilian cities began to emulate that of North America. These changes were part of a larger romance between Brazil and the U.S that was broken, only in part, when the World War II-era alliance failed to yield a measure of postwar prosperity or abundance as recompense for wartime shortages and surrender of sovereignty over strategically crucial north-eastern bases. Against this backdrop occurred the professionalisation of advertising and sales promotion and the continued commercialization of the press and radio, buoyed by radio soap operas.

Abstract This chapter begins by outlining the contextual background to the Sierra Leone civil war and the intergenerational issues that underpinned it. The programming life-cycle of the partner INGO’s media and community outreach projects are analysed next. Key themes in the radio programmes are examined to highlight the role of community radio, and radio soap operas in enabling a more critical reflection on local ideas and practices. In Sierra Leone, the lack of an explicit commitment to institutionalization proved to be a serious weakness. The result was only ad hoc involvement of the national government agencies in youth focused activities; and limited transfer of project related learning to successor organizations. In chasing donor funding to ensure longevity of operational presence, there was limited reflection on how far donor strategic priorities resonated with local norms. The result was a manufactured peace, characterized by accidental institutional legacies.

Abstract The power of radio and television to change attitudes and behaviour has long been assumed by advertisers of consumer products and by politicians. Only in recent years, however, has the potential of the media to influence reproductive behaviour been seriously considered. Much of this attention has been directed towards use of the media to communicate information and/or messages about family planning, including some very successful soap operas that extol the advantages of postponing pregnancy and of having fewer children. In some African countries, the subject of AIDS is also highlighted. A body of research is now accumulating that indicates that such media efforts can be quite effective (Westoff and Rodriguez 1995). This is important for family planning objectives because of the wide geographic coverage and the cost-effectiveness of the media.

Abstract Over the past fifty years American society has been blessed (or burdened, depending on your point of view) with a steady stream of high-profile legal cases that offer both intrigue and entertainment. Looking back over the last several years, for example, the O. J. Simpson, Scott Peterson, and D.C. sniper murder trials and the Michael Jackson child molestation case have dominated the media from television and radio talk shows to newspapers from the New York Times to the National Enquirer. Much of the coverage and commentary is pure entertainment, with the public viewing the investigations and trials as ongoing soap operas. Still, some of these high-profile trials have been not only informative but also educational. Whether viewers follow the proceedings gavel-to-gavel or simply tune in to learn the latest developments, they often come away with a deeper appreciation of how our legal system works and how justice or injustice is done.

Abstract One or two sentences of a radio announcer’s report of a game in progress will usually be sufficient to identify the particular kind of talk being used, different from all other kinds of radio talk, such as straight news, sermons, soap operas, or talk shows. One clue to the identification is the subject matter and the specialized vocabulary of the sport, but the same topics and lexicon may also be used in afterthe-fact news broadcasts, editorials, or interviews on talk shows. A more distinctive clue is the prosodic pattern, i.e., the features of tempo, rhythm, loudness, intonation, and other characteristics of voice. This clue is so powerful2 that it can often serve to distinguish not only sports announcing from other radio talk but even baseball from football announcing when the segmental phonetic characteristics and, hence, the actual words of the broadcast are muffled or masked. In this paper, some attention will be paid to these lexical and prosodic clues, but the primary purpose is to explore a third clue, the syntactic differences between sports announcer talk (SAT) and other kinds of discourse, especially the mythical “normal” discourse variously referred to as vernacular, common core, unmarked, or ordinary adult conversation. The analytic approach adopted here is that of register variation, although it is recognized that other approaches might also be instructive for investigating the phenomena of SAT. For example, a structural analysis of the genre or form of discourse of sports announcing could provide an account of the sportscast, which is indeed a highly structured and well recognized genre of contemporary mass media discourse. Such broadcasts start with background information about the game, the occasion, the teams, and so forth; conclude with interviews of players and coaches; and include components of direct reportage, comment, advertising commercials, and other elements in relatively fixed proportions and relatively fixed sequence.

This chapter discusses the unique case of performer Vicente Celestino and his film-director wife, Gilda de Abreu, who together constituted an intermedial circuit of their own. An intermedial artist par excellence, Celestino was active in radio, revue theatre, cinema, opera and operetta. One of his greatest successes was the song ‘O Ébrio’ (The Drunkard), released on Guanabara Radio in 1935. Over thirty years, he and Abreu adapted ‘O Ébrio’ to different media – radio, record, theatre, cinema and literature – and it also came out in a TV soap opera version. The chapter analyses the film O Ébrio (1946), directed by Abreu, in light of the song’s multimedia transpositions, with special attention to the film’s musical sequences, where the frontiers between actor and character are shattered.

Full textAbstract:
Solid Oxide Fuel Cell [SOFC]/Gas Turbine [GT] hybrid power systems can synergistically exploit the high operating temperature and high electrical generation efficiency of the solid oxide fuel cell and the high power density and simplicity of the gas turbine engine generator. Continued studies at Siemens Westinghouse seek practical system configurations with commercialization potential. Pressurized SOFC [PSOFC]/GT system concepts [directly heated Brayton cycles] can yield electrical power generation at the highest efficiency [circa 70%] {net ac/LHV} with concomitant complexity in configuration, operation and installation. Indirectly heated Brayton cycles utilizing an atmospheric pressure SOFC [ASOFC] can achieve a more modest electrical power generation efficiency [circa 55%] with considerably less complexity. Co-firing of the GT combustor to yield state-of-the-art [SOA] turbine inlet temperature [TIT] can most fully exploit the capability of SOA turbine technology yielding a hybrid system of lesser efficiency, but also of lesser cost ($/kWe). The ideal gas turbine and/or system configuration remains elusive however. Recent studies have focused on the indirectly heated cycle wherein the gas turbine exhaust serves directly as the SOFC oxidant. Consequently, the GT exhaust flow rate and temperature must be compatible with SOFC generator inlet requirements. This compatibility can be difficult to achieve with a state-of-the-art micro gas turbine generator [MTG] that typically operates with relatively low pressure ratio [3 to 4]. Alternatives ranging from the ideal GT to system level feature additions allowing SOA GTs have been analyzed. These alternatives are identified and discussed, and results of a comparative performance and cost evaluation are reviewed.

Full textAbstract:
Fluid transport systems are rarely at steady state. Transient phenomena, such as water hammer, can inflict severe physical damage. Repair costs can soar into the millions of dollars (Myers, 1997), and can reduce or even halt operation. Such high amplitude vibrations may be attenuated with particle dampers, which are beds of small particles placed in an attached enclosure or contained void. Vibration of the enclosure causes the particles to collide with each other and with the enclosure walls, resulting in energy dissipation through inelastic impacts and friction. Particle dampers have many advantages over conventional viscoelastic treatments including lower cost, increased robustness, greater effectiveness at high amplitudes and the ability to operate in extreme-temperature environments. Previous papers focus on exploration of sensitivity to design parameters, modeling techniques, and effective applications. However, there still remains much that is unknown about the phenomena and design of particle dampers. In this paper, experiments were performed to explore the effects of friction, excitation amplitude, and particle gap size. The formation of an oily residue on the colliding surfaces when certain materials were used increased friction and reduced damper effectiveness. This agrees with the theoretical prediction made by Mansour and Filho (1974). Damping was found to peak at an optimum gap size. Increasing the excitation amplitude resulted in higher damping and reduced sensitivity to the optimum gap size. Overall, the particle damper was deemed to be successful, increasing the loss factor of a clamped beam by over 10 times with a damper/structure mass ratio of only 0.016.
