What?   This site
Why?   part of the coursework for 'Cultural Geography: Route 66 and the Desert Southwest', lectured by Dr. Astrid Fellner
Where?   English department, University of Vienna
When?   summer term 2003.
 
   

The site's contents were brainstormed, looked up, searched for, pieced together and put into words (but never owned; only borrowed) by j. and k.

    The cup for smartest webdesign goes to: k.
 
Who?  

Julia Assl & Kerstin Kollmann

 
How?  

Since j. and k. are working as music journalists besides studying Journalism & Communications, Theater, Film & Media Studies and English & American Studies at the University of Vienna, it comes at no surprise they know quite a bit about music, and where to look for (information on) music related topics.

So far, the most important project they have been working on together - literally acting as partners in crime - is jakK.

jakK is..
.. a multimedia project
.. centred around a fabulous self-titled radio show
.. on air every second Tuesday from 3-4pm CET on Radio Orange, Vienna
.. music: electronica, indie and (no kidding!) mainstream
.. artist interviews: Moby, Travis, Blumfeld, Ash, Incubus, Gonzales, Rocko Schamoni, Maximilian Hecker, Kante, Sneaker Pimps etc.

At the rare 'dejakKted' DJing sessions le team can also be seen live, proudly presenting itself and its live DJing skills. Events like these usually take place at one of the many fucked-up alternative clubs in Vienna.
