How folk musicians of today learn to play their instruments is an over-all question in this article. One violin lesson and one guitar lesson have been observed at Framnäs folk high school. Three research questions were formulated. What do the two lessons have in common? What are the differences? How could the folk music education of today be related to the Swedish fiddler movement in the 1920s and other folk music traditions? Theoretically, the interpretation of the results was based on the mimesis theory of Ricoeur. Two teachers and three students participated in the study. The results showed that the lessons were structured in a similar way and dominated by master apprenticeship teaching. The violin teacher showed a more respectful attitude towards the tradition compared to the guitar teacher. Great parts of the manifest ideology of the fiddler movement seems to have become concealed into a latent or frozen ideology in the formal folk music education of today. There seems to be no big differences between learning the music by way of visiting an older fiddler hundred years ago compared to the study of music today at a formal institution.

Research on humor in Swedish organizational and working life contexts: a literature review The objective of this study was to provide a more coherent picture of research on humor in Swedish organizational and working life contexts, where even non-strictly organizational studies were included due to their high relevance in the research area. A systematic review of the literature published during the last 15 years was used to summarize an obviously undeveloped research area in Sweden. Published peer-reviewed articles that primarily examine humor were analyzed. Seventeen representative articles have been found and systematically reviewed and compared focusing on four questions: purposes and contexts of the studies, theoretical approaches, methods and main results. The analysis identifies four focal points that describe current state of humor research in Sweden: 1) positive function of humor appears to be a predominant research issue while humor’s subversive function, power relations and negative functions are less represented, 2) limited comparative studies of different contexts 3) biased theoretical approaches and limited studies of theory developing approach 4) overrepresented qualitative research approach. The above issues were discussed in relation to relevant international humor research.

The purpose of this article was to illuminate existing educational ideologies in the Swedish fiddler movement (Spelmansrörelsen) 1923-1927. This period was characterized by the organization and to some extent institutionalization of Swedish folk music. Furthermore, the purpose was to discuss the results in relation to the folk music education of today. The empirical data was taken from the journal Hembygden, which was a magazine for scholars, enthusiasts and practitioners of folk music. Theoretically, the study was based on a concept of ideology developed by Sven-Eric Liedman: in every time there are two basic forms of identifiable ideology, manifest and latent. From the empirical material as a whole (around 900 articles), a selection was made to find articles dealing with aspects of learning among the fiddlers (33 articles). After content analysis the following themes were generated: Fiddlers’ repertoire, Fiddlers’ masters, Rooms for learning, Learning formation. The writers in Hembygden often emphasized the autodidactic aspects of learning and especially the importance of learning by ear. This manifest ideology of authenticity presumed that learning directly from another fiddler by playing together was to prefer to formal schooling. In spite of a tendency towards more ensemble playing, the folk music education of today in Sweden is characterized by a similar retrospective ideology as in the 1920s.

 Loop-teknik i solistiska sammanhang är en idag väletablerad musicerande form dock är möjligheterna att använda tekniken i ensembleform ett mer eller mindre oprövat fält. I projektet “Audiovisuella loopar” som genomförts vid Högskolan Dalarna presenteras ett system för kollektiv livelooping där upp till fyra personer loop-musicerar tillsammans och där loopandet samtidigt kan spelas in och spelas upp som videoklipp. Tekniken har visat sig ha en stark kreativ potential. Med enbart en kort instruktion så startar en kollektiv process där den omedelbara feedbacken ger ett “fl ow” som lockar fram skaparglädjen hos musikanterna. Dessa erfarenheter pekar på spännande möjligheter att använda tekniken i musikundervisning och musikterapi.

Bakgrund: Sjuksköterskan förväntas arbeta med patientens bästa i fokus och hon möter många allvarliga situationer där själva existensen står på spel och där sjuksköterskan behöver härbärgera starka känslor hos patienter och deras närstående, men också upprätthålla sin egen integritet och känslomässiga balans. Humor har visats vara ett kraftfullt men tveeggat verktyg i kommunikation och relationsbyggande. Inom psykiatrin kan detta verktyg förmodas behöva hanteras med särskilt kunskap och omsorg. Syfte: Att beskriva hur sjuksköterskan i psykiatrisk omvårdnad ser på humor som företeelse och hennes upplevelse av positiva respektive negativa effekter av att använda humor. Metod: Undersökningen utfördes med en kvalitativ innehållsanalys av halvstrukturerade intervjuer med fem sjuksköterskor verksamma inom psykiatrisk omvårdnad. Resultat: Humor sågs som ett viktigt verktyg inom psykiatrisk omvårdnad som det krävdes lyhördhet, respekt, fingertoppskänsla och timing för att kunna använda. Den huvudsakliga strategin för att använda humor var öppenhet för spontant humor i mötet men det gavs även exempel på medvetna interventioner. Humor öppnade möjligheter att få se verkligheten från nya perspektiv vilket var verksamt för att förändra negativa tankar samt lätta på ångest och negativa känslor. Humor underlättade kommunikation och kunde användas för att jämna ut maktbalanser. Det fanns risk för negativa effekter om humor användes för att trycka ner andra eller som verklighetsflykt. Psykiatriska patienter uppfattades som mer sårbara och medvetenhet om hur svåra psykiska sjukdomar påverkar förmågan att uppfatta och uppskatta humor var viktig även om ett allmänt bra bemötande ansågs vara grundläggande. Slutsats: Positiva former av humor som används på ett respektfullt och inkännande sätt kan vara är ett viktigt verktyg i omvårdnaden för att möjliggöra nya perspektiv på tillvaron, ge lättnad i ångest, minska negativa känslor och tankar samt höja livskvaliteten för både patienter och personal i en verksamhet med mycket allvar.

The aim of the project is to examine the music salon in Falun as a part of the mining community and in the historical context of European salon culture. A specifc goal is to develop a deeper understanding about the salon when it comes to education and pedagogic ideas. Of a certain interest is Johan Henrik Munktell’s (1804-1861) education travelling (bildningsresor). Inspired by Mendelssohn’s music salon in Berlin and the early salons in Upp-sala he created his own salon in Grycksbo. A letter collection from J.H. Munktell to his father J.J. Munktell in 1828-30 can be considered a unique historical material, which places the salon in Falun in a continental context of culture, education and industrial pretensions. The results have potential to extend the knowledge of Nordic salon culture and how it has infuenced general pedagogy and music education.
