Das Racist-Sit Down, Man


The latest mixtape from the trio responsible for 'Combination Pizza Hut and Taco Bell' in 2009. Literate wordplay full of on the money cultural references. For fans of Beastie Boys, MF Doom ,Lil Wayne and Girl Talk, the music contains familiar samples from artists as diverse as Jay-Z and The Very Best. This work builds on the music of 'Shut Up, Dude' from earlier this year (added below). Click on images for links.

Representations of Age

Apologies for missing today's lesson. Your task is to think about how age is represented in the media. Remember that most characterisations presented to us by the media are stereotypes. This makes them easy to recognise and understand. This applies very clearly to notions of Age in the media. As you know teenagers get a particularly rough deal from mainstream media. The same applies to the old. In pairs you need to make a very brief list of the most obvious stereotypes for both groups. Then you need to choose a young or old character from a TV drama and make a presentation based on their representation. Add as much detail as you can. Include pictures and clips to illustrate your points.Think about how fair and accurate the representation is. As a class you need to make sure you all look at a different character and that some of you look at older characters. We'll look at these presentations tomorrow.
