The Innermost Unifier: Today It's the Corporate Anthem

Presented at The Last HOPE (2008), July 18, 2008, 10 p.m. (Unknown duration)

Using different historical and current examples (especially from the area of the hardware/software-industry), Johannes will give a theoretical and applied - and not unamusing - overview on the musical genre of corporate anthems. Come and sing along. Powernapping is welcome, too.
