No. of bitstreams: 1 arquivototal.pdf: 1415164 bytes, checksum: 2f58a213a9e7bdb669024f2f4dcca146 (MD5) Previous issue date: 2016-11-17 / Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior - CAPES / This PhD thesis analyses the process of construction of alternative musician subjects who act in the Antenor Navarro Square, located in the Historic Center of João Pessoa/PB (Brazil), through the social interactions established between them and Information and Communication Technologies (ICT). We advocate that the social interactions allowed by the ICT generate a musician subject in an ongoing process of deterritorialisation and reterritorialisation, with the working capacity of making music and the political condition altered by the possibility of manipulating the music structure. Therefore, it is seen the possibility of generating a sufficiently strong tension capable of affecting more consolidated instances of music production, promotion and distribution in the Phonographic Industry, affecting them on a scale that goes from the micro relations established through the web to the more traditional relations – such as those experienced in the Square. These observations were possible through the study of artistic trajectories of five artists in the alternative culture that operate in the Historic Center of João Pessoa end who envision the cyberspace as a locus of experimentations, shared experiences, and cheap and quick means of promotion. Through the life histories of the musicians, we tried to demonstrate how they travel between the Network and Antenor Navarro Square to give vent to their political actions. They are new agents, since they negotiate culture through their music labor. They are, as well, different musicians, since they are autonomous and connected to the digital structure of their object. / Essa tese analisou o processo de construção dos sujeitos músicos alternativos que atuam no entorno da Praça Antenor Navarro, localizada no Centro Histórico de João Pessoa/PB, a partir das interações sociais que se estabelecem entre eles e as Tecnologias de Informação e Comunicação (TIC’s). Defendemos que as interações sociais ensejadas pelas TIC’s geram um sujeito músico em constante processo de desterritorialização e re-territorialização, com a capacidade laboral de fazer música e a condição política alterada pela possibilidade de manipular a estrutura da música. Diante disso, vê-se a possibilidade de gerar uma tensão forte o suficiente, para mexer com as instâncias de produção, divulgação e distribuição de música mais consolidadas da Indústria Fonográfica, alterando-as desde as micro relações estabelecidas a partir da rede, até as relações mais tradicionais – como aquelas vivenciadas na Praça. Tal se deu pela analysis das trajetórias artísticas de cinco artistas da cultura alternativa que atuam no Centro Histórico de João Pessoa e vislumbram o ciberespaço como um lócus de experimentações, experiências compartilhadas e meio de divulgação rápido e barato. Através das histórias de vida dos músicos, procuramos demonstrar como transitam entre a Rede e a Praça Antenor Navarro para dar vazão a suas ações políticas. São novos agentes: negociando cultura através de seu labor musical. São outros sujeitos músicos: autônomos e conectados a estrutura digital do seu objeto.

Thesis "Media coverage of band Dog Soldiers (Psí vojáci) between years 1979 and 2013" shows the change of cultural environment as well as the differences between the normalization press and the magazines after 1989. Diversity of media system describes work primarily through oral history research based on testimonies of direct history participants and people associated with the group Dog Soldiers and alternative music scene. Band was situated between underground and alternative culture, so its position cannot be easily set. As it cannot find any similar interpret of the same genre. The unique position made Dog Soldiers an alternative music scene's symbol of post-Communist period. The descriptive and comparative perspective also serves to fulfill the set goals, which makes it possible to compare the functionality of official and samizdat or exile periodicals at the time of normalization and nationwide newspapers and music magazines in later more active period of the group. The work also shows the differences between the processing of individual musical environments of Czech culture by specialized literature.

The thesis examines how have the habits of music users changed after they had become internet users. The goal of the thesis is to put some light on the relation of part of the generation Y to the new media A method of deduction is used based on the theory of hypothesis which is subsequently evaluated by the audience (generation Y) of alternative music (surveyed years of birth 1984-1991). In the first chapter the generation Y is defined according to some of foreign authors' theories and then put in the context of the Czech environment. A technology background and possible influences on the behaviour of the music users of this generation is described. The second chapter describes transformation of the music industry from the late 90's till now which has been happening thanks to the new possibility to distribute various content on the Internet. I focus in particular on the peer-to-peer networks. By explaining the development of this matter I prepare a basis for a better understanding to both respondents' behaviour and their attitudes to illegal music downloads. I also touch upon the new media's role in the taste formation and the change of relationship between a performer and a music fan. The third chapter considers Internet to be the communication platform of the generation Y. It gives such a hypothesis that...

The diploma thesis aims to capture and explain the changes in the milieu of nonconformist rock music in relation to the policy of Perestroika in Czechoslovakia during the years 1986- 89. The primary methodological framework is created by an interpretive trichotomy where each perspective includes various historiographical approaches (sociology of Ivo Možný, postmodern deconstruction of authoritarian discourse, so-called totality from below, etc.). The chapter dealing with the repression of rock music analyses the working methods of secret police (StB) in the 1980s while revealing the background of several typical cases (Pražský výběr, Visací zámek, Michael's Uncle). Next chapter explains the differing approaches of nonconformist rockers towards the cultural relief represented by the official festival "Rockfest". The last analytical chapter deals with perception of contemporary authorities. In conclusion it turns out that the relationship to the authoritarian horizons underwent the most fundamental transformation. The disintegration of those authoritarian horizons led to transformations inside the social field and contributed to the decline of the regime of state socialism.

The degree work deals with the last century period of the 80s and 90s in the Pilsen region. Generally, it was time of lack of freedom and intolerance when all the state power was concentrated in one political party - the Czechoslovak Communist Party. With support of police this party manipulated with citizens' dignity, rights and thinking. Through description of some civic activities the work records groups of independent thinking in the Pilsen region. These activities were source of independent atmosphere; that's why they were supervised by the state power; their protagonists were monitored and their activities were supressed. In the work the independent areas are divided into chapters: church, music, scouting, camping, ecology. Another chapter focuses on the local dissent activities. Its members were predominantly from the above mentioned groups. Last chapter deals with unofficial publishing (samizdat) in this period. The aim of the degree work is to find (or at least to outline) the starting points and reasons that finally brought members of various groups (often diametrically opposite) together on the way of independent activities, dissent and unofficial publishing (samizdat).
