Owen Gallagher Boeken

Focusing on critical remix videos, this book employs multimodal analyses to explore both remixed and non-remixed intertextual works. It synthesizes various investigative methods, including semiotic, rhetorical, and ideological analysis, to deepen the discussion on how these forms of media interact and convey meaning. The approach offers a comprehensive examination of the complexities involved in remix culture and its implications for understanding communication and representation in contemporary media.

'Ah'll show yoo anuther Glesca,' announces Owen Gallagher in 'Thi Unoffishal Toorist Guide Oootside Glesca Central', not the 'bleached version' of history books and tourist brochures. 'Clydebuilt' is a book about growing up in the Gorbals in the 1950s and 1960s - poverty, pawnshops and sectarianism, carbolic soap and lice, Saturday morning at the pictures, violent teachers, razor-gangs and blacklists. It's a book about language - Glaswegian dialect, Latin and the Church's 'tabernacle of language'. And it's a book about Red Clydeside, a city of dreamers, fighters, singers and rebels.
