Printed in the U.S.A. DEAR PATRONS © Carter Rose Welcome to the Winspear Opera House on the AT&T Performing Arts Center campus. A Bronx Tale started as a one-man show in Los Angeles in the ‘80s, then moved to Off Broadway, then became a movie in 1993 before arriving on Broadway as a solo play in 2007 – and now the musical. Chazz Palminteri’s semi-autobiographical coming-of-age story has been entertaining audiences in different forms for decades; and perhaps the only way to improve it is to add music in the style of the 1960s. Next up in the AT&T Performing Arts Center’s Broadway Series is the Lincoln Center Theater production of Falsettos; followed by the hilarious The Play That Goes Wrong; back by popular demand is Beautiful – The Carole King Musical; direct from London is Bat Out of Hell; then Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. In other words, we’re going to cry, laugh, rock, roll, and be in a world of pure imagination. And that’s just Broadway. In 2019 we’ll also have the world’s biggest-selling soprano Sarah Brightman, Live from Here with Chris Thile, Rock & Roll Hall of Fame inductee Joan Baez on her farewell tour, and many more. Not to mention shows by our five resident companies who are all among the best in the country: Anita N. Martinez Ballet Folklorico, Dallas Black Dance Theatre, The Dallas Opera, Dallas Theater Center and Texas Ballet Theater. And the best dance companies from around the world, brought to the Dallas Arts District through our partnership with TITAS Presents. You can also see some of the coolest new work being made right here in Dallas by small and emerging arts groups in our Elevator Project series. Thank you for supporting the arts, and we hope to see you many more times in 2019!

Frye: Scenes from the Copyright Office SCENES FROM THE COPYRIGHT OFFICE Brian L. Frye* In his iconic song, “Scenes from an Italian Restaurant,” Billy Joel uses a series of vignettes to describe an encounter between two former classmates, meeting again after many years.1 The song begins as a ballad as they exchange pleasantries, segues into jazz as they reminisce about high school, shifts to rock as they gossip about the decline and fall of the former king and queen of the prom, then returns to a ballad as they part.2 The genius of the song is that the banality of the vignettes perfectly captures the subjective experience of its protagonists. This essay uses a series of vignettes drawn from Joel’s career to describe his encounters with copyright law. It begins by examining the ownership of the copyright in Joel’s songs.

  • JSP Spring 2013
    Journal of Space Philosophy 2, no. 1 (Spring 2013) Dedicated to the belief that Space holds solutions for the betterment of humankind. 2 Journal of Space Philosophy 2, no. 1 (Spring 2013) Preface Philosophy has traditionally been rendered the love of wisdom or the search for wisdom. Aristotle, in his Ethics, took this further and associated the search for wisdom with the search for virtue, which he saw as a consistent choice to do what is moral and right. Kepler’s approach to philosophy follows along a similar path to seek reverence for life within ethical civilization; that is, to look for ways forward that are beneficial rather than destructive, that help rather than harm. Our first principle, set out in Issue 1, is that reverence for life is the foundational purpose that will sustain humankind in perpetuity. The challenges of moving out into space will expand our horizons to the extent that we will be forced to revise our worldview completely. It is the responsibility of the right-minded to argue, advocate, and work for solutions that help humanity to grow ethically and morally as we also grow scientifically and technologically. This journal is peer-reviewed. Submissions, to [email protected], will be considered for publication from anyone on Earth or in Space. Views contained in articles are those of the authors; not necessarily reflecting policy of Kepler Space Institute.

    “I have met God, and he lives in Brooklyn. Or how the arch skeptic, dark lord of Disinformation becomes convinced, and tries to convince you the reader, that Howard Bloom is next in a lineage of seminal thinkers that includes Newton, Darwin, Einstein, Freud, and Buckminster Fuller and how he is going to change the way we see ourselves and everything around us.” Richard Metzger, Disinfo.com and Channel 4 TV, Britain ______ “I have always admired your ideas” Helen Fisher 3-1-2012 ________ “I hope your new edition is going well. I sent those few corrections and observations, but probably did not stress properly my intense admiration for your erudition and wisdom. The scope is vast and perhaps only you could handle it that way. Your chilling analyis of Islam is sobering.” Robin Fox, founder of the Anthropology Department at Rutgers University, advisory board member, Social Issues Research Center, editor, Biosocial Anthropology, editor, Neonate Cognition, author of Encounter with Anthropology; The Red Lamp of Incest: An Enquiry into the Origins of Mind and Society; The Violent Imagination; The Search For Society, co-author of The Imperial Animal and of Kinship and Marriage (Cambridge Studies in Social and Cultural Anthropology 50) ________ “Howard Bloom is a Nobel-level thinker.
