Abstract

This thesis examines and classifies the diverse techniques and aspects of music and sound effects in popular Japanese comedy anime TV series, American comedy animated TV series and films of the last twenty years with a focus on humour. The analysis is based different humour theories (principally incongruity theory), which provide theoretical support to understand and examine the mechanisms of humour in this repertoire. This thesis fills a significant gap in the literature and aims to contribute to our comprehensive understanding of humorous techniques in the use of sounds and music and their relationships with plot, images and dialogue in animated films and TV. It combines film analysis, musical analysis and theories of humour. Many of the theories, classifications and models in this thesis are also appliable to audiovisual humour in other types of films and TV or other videos, which will be of interest to students and scholars of film, music, but also of psychology, philosophy and other subjects interested in the study of humour and its manifestations beyond the verbal sphere. The first chapter reviews the relevant literature and introduces the reasons for the choice of this topic and brief background information about Japanese anime and US animation, which provides a foundation of knowledge for the following chapters. The second chapter focuses on humour theories, their application to films and TV and the classification of types of humorous events. The next two chapters contains the main body of the analysis and example-based research, exploring the various relationship between music (chapter three) and sounds (chapter four) and the visuals and their role in the underlining or creation of humour.

Abstract

Abstract It is considered a more formidable task to precisely control the self-assembled products containing purely covalent components, due to a lack of intrinsic templates such as transition metals to suppress entropy loss during self-assembly. Here, we attempt to tackle this challenge by using directing groups. That is, the self-assembly products of condensing a 1:2 mixture of a tetraformyl and a biamine can be precisely controlled by slightly changing the substituent groups in the aldehyde precursor. This is because different directing groups provide hydrogen bonds with different modes to the adjacent imine units, so that the building blocks are endowed with totally different conformations. Each conformation favors the formation of a specific product that is thus produced selectively, including chiral and achiral cages. These results of using a specific directing group to favor a target product pave the way for accomplishing atom economy in synthesizing purely covalent molecules without relying on toxic transition metal templates.
