Streaming Music : Practices, Media, Cultures
Streaming Music examines how the Internet has become integrated in contemporary music use, by focusing on streaming as a practice and a technology for music consumption.The backdrop to this enquiry is the digitization of society and culture, where the music industry has undergone profound disruptions, and where music streaming has altered listening modes and meanings of music in everyday life.The objective of Streaming Music is to shed light on what these transformations mean for listeners, by looking at their adaptation in specific cultural contexts, but also by considering how online music platforms and streaming services guide music listeners in specific ways.Drawing on case studies from Moscow and Stockholm, and providing analysis of Spotify, VK and YouTube as popular but distinct sites for music, Streaming Music discusses, through a qualitative, cross-cultural, study, questions around music and value, music sharing, modes of engaging with music, and the way that contemporary music listening is increasingly part of mobile, automated and computational processes.Offering a nuanced perspective on these issues, it adds to research about music and digital media, shedding new light on music cultures as they appear today.As such, this volume will appeal to scholars of media, sociology and music with interests in digital technologies.

Digital Satire in Latin America : Online Video Humor as Hybrid Alternative Media
How creators of online video critique politics and society and amplify public discourse in Latin American countries This book analyzes how digital-native audiovisual satire has become increasingly influential in national public debates within Latin America.Paul Alonso illuminates the role of online video in filling gaps in sociopolitical critique left by television, traditional journalism, and commercial entertainment while exposing some of the prevalent tensions of the region.Alonso draws on interviews and analyzes media content to consider some of the most representative and influential satirical shows born on the internet and produced in Argentina, Colombia, Ecuador, Peru, Mexico, and Latinx communities in the United States.He discusses YouTubers Chumel Torres, Malena Pichot, Guille Aquino, Joanna Hausmann, and El Cacash; the Enchufe.tv collective; and the video columnists Maria Paulina Baena from La Pulla and Mariángela Urbina from Las Igualadas.These creators use professional and non-mainstream practices and resources to dismantle fake news, highlight social tensions, and offer in-depth content that goes beyond confrontational attacks.In contexts of highly ideological polarization, Alonso argues, digital satire is a unique type of hybrid alternative media that can articulate nonpartisan interpretations of reality while also questioning, deconstructing, and subverting the authoritative role of media.Satiric voices can offer an informed, reflexive, argumentative, or historically rooted perspective that amplifies public discourse and shapes changing notions of journalism and political communication in democratic societies. A volume in the series Reframing Media, Technology, and Culture in Latin/o America, edited by Héctor Fernández L’Hoeste and Juan Carlos Rodríguez Publication of this work made possible by a Sustaining the Humanities through the American Rescue Plan grant from the National Endowment for the Humanities.

Why does the alcohol content not rise above 17% during alcoholic fermentation?
The alcohol content does not rise above 17% during alcoholic fermentation because the yeast responsible for fermentation can only tolerate alcohol levels up to a certain point, typically around 15-17%. Once the alcohol concentration reaches this threshold, the yeast becomes stressed and eventually dies off, halting the fermentation process. This natural limit ensures that the fermentation process does not continue indefinitely and allows for the production of beverages with a balanced alcohol content.

Why don't cakes rise?
Cakes may not rise properly due to several reasons, such as using expired or improperly measured leavening agents like baking powder or baking soda. Overmixing the batter can also cause the gluten in the flour to develop too much, resulting in a dense cake. Additionally, opening the oven door too often while the cake is baking can cause the temperature to fluctuate, affecting the cake's rise. It's important to follow the recipe instructions carefully and ensure all ingredients are fresh and measured accurately to help cakes rise properly.

Do stocks rise indefinitely?
No, stocks do not rise indefinitely. Stock prices are influenced by a variety of factors including company performance, economic conditions, and investor sentiment. While stocks can experience long periods of growth, they can also experience periods of decline. It's important for investors to be aware of the risks and potential for volatility in the stock market. Diversification and a long-term investment strategy can help mitigate some of these risks.
-
Can cold rise upwards?
No, cold air does not rise upwards. In fact, cold air is denser than warm air, so it tends to sink. This is why you often feel colder air near the ground and warmer air higher up in the atmosphere. The movement of air, including rising and sinking, is primarily driven by differences in temperature and pressure.

The Arena Concert : Music, Media and Mass Entertainment
The Arena Concert: Music, Media and Mass Entertainment is the first sustained engagement with what might said to be - in its melding of concert and gathering, in its evolving relationship with digital and social media, in its delivery of event, experience, technology and star - the art form of the 21st century.This volume offers interviews with key designers, discussions of the practicalities of mounting arena concerts, mixing and performing live to a mass audience, recollections of the giants of late twentieth century music in performance, and critiques of latter-day pretenders to the throne.The authors track the evolution of the arena concert, consider design and architecture, celebrity and fashion, and turn to feminism, ethnographic research, and ideas of humour, liveness and authenticity, in order to explore and frame the arena concert.The arena concert becomes the “real time” centre of a global digital network, and the gig-goer pays not only for an immersion in (and, indeed, role in) its spectacular nature, but also for a close encounter with the performers, in this contained and exalted space.The spectacular nature of the arena concert raises challenges that have yet to be fully technologically overcome, and has given rise to a reinvention of what live music actually means. Love it or loathe it, the arena concert is a major presence in the cultural landscape of the 21st century.This volume finds out why.

From Hollywood with Love : The Rise and Fall (and Rise Again) of the Romantic Comedy
An in-depth celebration of the romantic comedy’s modern golden era and its role in our culture, tracking the genre from its heyday in the ’80s and the ’90s, its unfortunate decline in the 2000s, and its explosive reemergence in the age of streaming, featuring exclusive interviews with the directors, writers, and stars of the iconic films that defined the genre. No Hollywood genre has been more misunderstood—or more unfairly under-appreciated—than the romantic comedy.Funny, charming, and reliably crowd-pleasing, rom-coms were the essential backbone of the Hollywood landscape, launching the careers of many of Hollywood’s most talented actors and filmmakers, such as Julia Roberts and Matthew McConaughey, and providing many of the yet limited creative opportunities women had in Hollywood.But despite—or perhaps because of—all that, the rom-com has routinely been overlooked by the Academy Awards or snobbishly dismissed by critics.In From Hollywood with Love, culture writer and GQ contributor Scott Meslow seeks to right this wrong, celebrating and analyzing rom-coms with the appreciative, insightful critical lens they’ve always deserved.Beginning with the golden era of the romantic comedy—spanning from the late ’80s to the mid-’00s with the breakthrough of films such as When Harry Met Sally—to the rise of streaming and the long-overdue push for diversity setting the course for films such as the groundbreaking, franchise-spawning Crazy Rich Asians, Meslow examines the evolution of the genre through its many iterations, from its establishment of new tropes, the Austen and Shakespeare rewrites, the many love triangles, and even the occasional brave decision to do away with the happily ever after.Featuring original black-and-white sketches of iconic movie scenes and exclusive interviews with the actors and filmmakers behind our most beloved rom-coms, From Hollywood with Love constructs oral histories of our most celebrated romantic comedies, for an informed and entertaining look at Hollywood’s beloved yet most under-appreciated genre.

News as Entertainment : The Rise of Global Infotainment
"Thussu brings to this project the passion for news of a socially committed former journalist, the political economy of his international relations education and a formidable assembly of global detail, examining the recent explosion of 'infotainment'."- John Downing, Southern Illinois University"Thussu's account of war as infotainment, the Bollywoodization of news and the emergence of a global infotainment sphere is as compelling as it is alarming.This is a significant and essential book for anyone interested in exploring the connections between news journalism, informed citizenship and democracy." - Bob Franklin, The Cardiff School of Journalism, Media and Cultural StudiesRichly detailed and empirically grounded, this first book-length study of infotainment and its globalization by a leading scholar of global communication, offers a comprehensive and critical analysis of this emerging phenomenon.Going beyond - both geographically and theoretically - the 'dumbing down' discourse, largely confined to the Anglo-American media, the book argues that infotainment may have an important ideological role, a diversion in which 'soft news' masks the hard realities of neo-liberal imperialism.Chapters include a historical appraisal of infotainment; the infrastructure for its globalization as well as coverage of recent wars on television news as high-tech infotainment and the growing synergies between Hollywood and Bollywood-originated infotainment.A 'global infotainment sphere' is emerging, the book argues, within which competing versions of news - from 24/7 news networks to bloggers - coexist.Accessible, engagingly written and robustly argued, the book combines analyses of theoretical debates on infotainment with extensive and up-to-date comparative data.

Does fresher air rise?
Yes, fresher air tends to rise because it is typically cooler and denser than the surrounding air. As a result, fresher air will displace the warmer, less dense air above it, causing it to rise. This process is known as convection, where the movement of air is driven by differences in temperature and density.
-
Should electricity prices rise?
The answer to whether electricity prices should rise depends on various factors. On one hand, higher electricity prices can incentivize consumers to use energy more efficiently and encourage the development of renewable energy sources. This can help reduce environmental impact and promote sustainability. On the other hand, higher electricity prices can place a burden on low-income households and small businesses. Therefore, any decision to raise electricity prices should be carefully weighed against its potential impact on consumers and the overall economy. It is important to consider implementing measures to mitigate the impact on vulnerable populations and to ensure that the transition to higher prices is fair and equitable.

"Doesn't gas always rise?"
Gas does not always rise. The behavior of gas depends on its density and the surrounding conditions. For example, in a gravitational field, less dense gases will rise while denser gases will sink. Additionally, the temperature and pressure of the gas can also affect its behavior, causing it to either rise or sink. Therefore, the movement of gas is not always predictable and can vary depending on various factors.
