Produktbeschreibung

Nordic Music Videos fills a gap in the existing research on music videos by bringing together new perspectives on music videos across the Nordic region, from the academic to the practical, the aesthetic to the industrial, while addressing issues of local, transnational, and global significance.

The collection offers groundbreaking scholarly research into music videos, including critical readings of music videos, explorations of emerging formats, discussions of music video aesthetics and Nordic music videos in a global context and within popular culture. The book's chapters are interdisciplinary explorations which recognise the strengths of specific areas of scholarly research, such as music video studies, audiovisual studies, popular music studies, and film/media studies, while nevertheless bridging disciplines and doing justice to the multimodal and intermedial nature of practices. Furthermore, the book includes the viewpoints of industry practitioners through interviews with artists and music video directors and research on industry-related issues.

The book is likely to be of interest to a variety of readers, ranging from researchers interested in popular music and audiovisual expression in the Nordic region to master's level students and undergraduates. The industry angles and the focus on Nordic cultures will also interest anyone who wants to discover how music videos developed or influence Nordic societies.

Chapters 1, 4 and 5 of this book is freely available as a downloadable Open Access PDF at http://www.taylorfrancis.com under a Creative Commons [Attribution-Non Commercial-No Derivatives (CC BY-NC-ND)] 4.0 license.
