  • Computer Gaming Music: Composition
    KSKS45 Computer gaming music: composition James Manwaring by James Manwaring is Director of Music for Windsor Learning Partnership, and has been teaching music for 15 years. He is a member of INTRODUCTION the MMA and ISM, and he writes his One of the key emerging genres of music over the last 35 years has been computer game music. Since the own music blog. first playable version of Tetris in 1984, music in this genre has grown. We now see key orchestral and cinema composers turning their hands to computer game soundtracks. If we’re going to prepare our students for future work in the music industry, it’s crucial for them to embrace all styles and genres. Following an earlier resource on gaming music (AQA AoS2: Computer gaming music, Music Teacher, November 2018), here I’m going to consider ways of teaching computer game music using composition. This will include some compositional ideas that can easily be adapted for other genres. STARTING POINT Composition is a key component for all the GCSE exam boards, and while each exam board has different criteria, they all share similar, overarching compositional goals. The ideas in this resource can either lead to something suitable for a GCSE entry, or help with the overall teaching of composition. The aim is to use computer games as the key focus for the composing process. Students will probably spend a great deal of time playing computer games. Not only will they have an excellent grasp of music from this genre, but they will also be keen to have a go at composing it for themselves.

  • Report to the Community
    Report to the Community July 1, 2012 – June 30, 2013 Detroit Educational Television Foundation “Detroit Public Television has become our breakthrough station, connecting one-on-one with the people who live within its reach, using TV and webcasts and new media, as well as old-fashioned in-person gatherings to create a real and virtual community of eager, happy partners. I’ve been in public television for four decades now, and I’ve never seen one of our stations with a keener commitment to what’s important to the folks it serves.” - Bill Moyers SHOWING THE WORLD HOW DETROIT PERFORMS A Report to Our Community “Performance” has many meanings. From the cars we drive, to thrilling moments on stages and screens, to delivering on a promise, performance matters. In these pages, you’ll see how Detroit Public TV has performed this year in its mission to provide trusted programming on TV, on radio, and online. Every great performance requires collaboration and that is especially true in public media. We rely on our region’s educators, policy makers, deep thinkers, visionaries, artists, students, and – most of all – on supporters like you to showcase greater Detroit and create programs that educate, entertain and inspire. While we’re proud of the success stories we’ve helped create, please know that we’re continually looking ahead to meet future challenges and opportunities. That means exploring new content delivery vehicles such as mobile and broadband internet. It means understanding the issues in our local community, connecting with smart folks working on those issues, and then creating – and delivering – meaningful content.

  • Sexo, Amor Y Cine Por Salvador Sainz Introducción
    Sexo, amor y cine por Salvador Sainz Introducción: En la última secuencia de El dormilón (The Sleeper, 1973), Woody Allen, desengañado por la evolución polí tica de una hipotética sociedad futura, le decí a escéptico a Diane Keaton: “Yo sólo creo en el sexo y en la muerte” . Evidentemente la desconcertante evolución social y polí tica de la última década del siglo XX parecen confirmar tal aseveración. Todos los principios é ticos del filósofo alemá n Hegel (1770-1831) que a lo largo de un siglo engendraron movimientos tan dispares como el anarquismo libertario, el comunismo autoritario y el fascismo se han desmoronado como un juego de naipes dejando un importante vací o ideológico que ha sumido en el estupor colectivo a nuestra desorientada generación. Si el siglo XIX fue el siglo de las esperanzas el XX ha sido el de los desengaños. Las creencias má s firmes y má s sólidas se han hundido en su propia rigidez. Por otra parte la serie interminable de crisis económica, polí tica y social de nuestra civilización parece no tener fin. Ante tanta decepción sólo dos principios han permanecido inalterables: el amor y la muerte. Eros y Tá natos, los polos opuestos de un mundo cada vez má s neurótico y vací o. De Tánatos tenemos sobrados ejemplos a cada cual má s siniestro: odio, intolerancia, guerras civiles, nacionalismo exacerbado, xenofobia, racismo, conservadurismo a ultranza, intransigencia, fanatismo… El Sé ptimo Arte ha captado esa evolución social con unas pelí culas cada vez má s violentas, con espectaculares efectos especiales que no nos dejan perder detalle de los aspectos má s sombrí os de nuestro entorno.

  • Moving Forward at the Detroit Historical Society!
    1 WINTER 2018 Moving Forward at the Detroit Historical Society! At the Detroit Historical Society, 2017 has been a time of transformation. Three years of work on Detroit 67: Looking Back to Move Forward came to fruition this year, and the efforts that went into it led us to adopt a new model for engaging the public in creating programming and exhibitions in our museums. Our work is stronger for it, as evidenced by positive reviews, awards and steady increases in visitor numbers driven by the Detroit 67: Perspectives exhibition. Most importantly, however, our organization changed from the inside out. Our model for engagement, Engage, Refect, Act (ERA), incorporates a three-step process for commencing work on new programs and exhibitions at our museums: engage the community, refect on what we learn and inspire visitors to action based on the relevance of history to today. We are committed to applying this model internally and externally as we work to tell Detroit’s stories and why they matter. That means that we are engaging the talents of our staff across departments to strengthen and streamline our work in the same way that we are engaging the public and other cultural institutions to inform upcoming programs and exhibits. In October, the Detroit Historical Society and our partners at the Detroit Institute of Arts and the Charles H. Wright Museum of African American History were honored with the Michigan Museum Association’s 2017 Peninsulas Prize in recognition of our unique collaboration on the Detroit 67 project. This was wonderful evidence of the transformational power of the ERA model.

Ever since I was a little boy I have been a fan, and some might even say that I became somewhat obsessed, for which I cannot really blame them. Moreover, I have always had a special interest in mixed language songs, so linking the two subjects seemed only natural. Thanks to a rather unfortunate turn of events, this thesis took a lot longer to write than was initially planned, but nevertheless, here it is. Special thanks are in order for my supervisor, Tony Foster, who has helped me in many ways during this time. I would also like to thank a number of other people for various reasons. The second reader Lettie Dorst. My mother, for being the reason I got involved with the Eurovision Song Contest. My father, for putting up with my seemingly endless collection of Eurovision MP3s in the car.
