This book offers an in-depth analysis of Janelle Monáe's Dirty Computer, an Afrofuturist project that appeared simultaneously as a concept album and a visual album or "emotion picture" in spring 2018. In the previous decade, Janelle Monáe has developed into a global media personality who effortlessly unites speculative world-building with social and political activism. Across the intersecting album and film that together make up Dirty Computer, Monáe brings together the science-fictional themes that informed her previous work, resulting in a powerfully focused artistic and political statement. While the music on the album can be enjoyed as an accessible collection of pop tracks, the accompanying film, music videos, and media paratexts add layers of meaning that combine speculative world-building with anti-racist activism. This unique convergence of energies, ideas, and media platforms has made Dirty Computer a new classic of Afrofuturist science fiction.Palgrave Science Fiction and Fantasy: A New Canon,2662-8570Popular musicAfrican AmericansCultureMusicHistory and criticismPopular culturePopular MusicAfrican American CultureContemporary MusicPopular CulturePopular music.African Americans.Culture.MusicHistory and criticism.Popular culture.Popular Music.African American Culture.Contemporary Music.Popular Culture.305.896073782.42164092Hassler-Forest Dan1075167MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQ9910520072303321Janelle Monáe's Dirty Computer2584175UNINA00999nam0 22002531i 450 UON0010717220231205102620.69920020107d1974 |0itac50 baengIN|||| 1||||Philosophy and Psychology in the AbhidharmaHerbert V.
