Jazz on BBC-TV 1960-1969

这个项目是关于爵士音乐和电视之间的互动。它旨在重新评估电视在人文学科中的地位，并开发分析这些文本的新方法。研究有三个方面：档案，采访和生产/表演。档案研究将确定爵士乐表演在BBC音乐，纪录片和综艺节目中的范围。采访研究将记录来自BBC制作团队、档案管理员和音乐家的轶事证据。制作/表演研究将生成一个30分钟的爵士电视序列，使用当代音乐家和数字设备来调查电视演播室环境中的协作创造性劳动。总之，这三个研究方向将构成对英国电视上爵士乐最全面的研究。该项目旨在回答三个研究问题：1。20世纪60年代英国广播公司的机构和电视制作实践是如何为观众解释和调解爵士乐的文化意义的？这些做法对后来几代的电视制作人和爵士音乐家产生了什么影响？在录音室录音中，即兴演奏的音乐家和电视制作人员的合作工作如何理论化？这项研究将在伯明翰城市大学媒体学院新兴的爵士乐研究集群内进行。这个由研究人员和音乐家组成的小组将成为该项目爵士乐和媒体网络的核心，鼓励该领域的合作研究。网络的范围将是国际性的，并将提供有关爵士乐音像档案的公共信息。首席研究员的产出将与BFI南岸、大英图书馆声音档案馆、Jazzlines市政厅交响乐厅、Flatpack电影节和伯明翰音乐学院合作。通过与这些机构合作，该项目将创造独特的艺术品和资源，增强我们对爵士乐和电视的文化理解。该项目将是迄今为止对爵士电视最全面的研究，旨在鼓励这一领域的进一步研究。它将探索现场和录制的概念，这是创建爵士电视的过程中不可或缺的一部分。它还将为爵士乐在BBC公共服务广播的范围内所扮演的角色提供细致入微的历史描述。这种叙述与当前爵士音乐家和电视消费者的相关性将通过录音采访和节日装置来展示。通过这种方式，该项目解决了档案电视在数字时代的作用。

This project is about the interaction between jazz music and television. It aims to reevaluate the place of television within the humanities and develop new methods of analyzing these texts. There are three strands to the research: archival, interview and production/performance. The archival research will determine the range of jazz performance in BBC music, documentary and variety programming. The interview research will record anecdotal evidence from BBC production crew, archivists and musicians. The production/performance research will generate a 30-minute jazz TV sequence, using contemporary musicians and digital equipment to investigate collaborative creative labour in the environment of the television studio. Together, these three research strands will constitute the most comprehensive study of jazz on television in Britain.The project aims to answer three research questions:1. How did the BBC's institutional and television production practices of the 1960s interpret and mediate the cultural meanings of jazz for its audience?2. What influence did these practices exert upon subsequent generations of television producers and jazz musicians?3. How can the collaborative work of improvising musicians and television production crews within studio recordings be theorized?The research will be conducted within the emerging jazz research cluster at the School of Media, Birmingham City University. This group of researchers and musicians will act as a nucleus for the project's Jazz and the Media network which will encourage collaborative research in the field. The scope of the network will be international and will provide public information on audiovisual jazz archives. The Principal Investigator's outputs will be produced in collaboration with BFI Southbank, The British Library Sound Archive, Jazzlines Town Hall Symphony Hall, Flatpack Film Festival and the Birmingham Conservatoire of Music. By working alongside these bodies, the project will create unique artworks and resources that enhance our cultural understanding of jazz and television.The project will be the most comprehensive study of jazz television to date and aims to encourage further research in this field. It will explore notions of the live and recorded which are integral to the process of creating jazz television. It will also provide a nuanced historical account of jazz's role within the remit of BBC's public service broadcasting. The relevance of this narrative to current jazz musicians and television consumers will be demonstrated through recorded interviews and festival installations. In this way, the project addresses the role of archive television in the digital age.
