Networking as an art has been practiced for a longer time than it has enjoyed the title. Any executive who has not perfected this skill is destined for limited—if any—success. In radio, PD's network on a daily basis to avoid the hype on music. It is made easier today because the industry is better informed than ever before. With the refinement of the computer modem and the introduction of the fax machine, space age technology is here today. But with all of the available technology, nothing achieves the level of networking that can be accomplished in a setting designed specifically for this purpose. At BRE Conference '89, Networking Rooms have been set up in categories reflecting the industry's major areas of concern. Accordingly, you may select the area in which you wish to network, visit that room and initiate effective dialogue with your peers in an exchange which can be fruitful for all. For many years black conferences have been criticized for their large lobby and bar gatherings because of what was considered a low time/efficiency factor. But research has shown that networking in that area is actually very effective because of the constant flow of conference attendees. So what we have done is simply to 'legitimize' and refine the traditional lobby-bar networking system by opening up Networking Rooms adjacent to each other with the participants' concerns listed by the subject matter contained within. If properly utilized, the time spent focusing on each individual's interest should be minimized—thereby allowing each participant to network in a more relaxed, yet time-efficient manner. It is a bold experiment, but we were determined to give BRE Conference '89 attendees more information within a minimum time frame because the source is more targeted. Here's hoping your networking experience here in Long Beach this week will create positive changes in your life and career. In closing, I would like to express my sincere appreciation to all of those companies who made a financial commitment to insure the success of BRE Conference '89. And to the BRE staff and volunteers whose contributions and sacrifices were of incalculable value. May your spirit of cooperation be rewarded reciprocally as we continue to create together a "90s Network" that will enhance our quest for a happier and more prosperous future. Let us continue.

Week 1 – Breath Week 2 – Blues Week 3 – Sonnets Week 4 – Signifyin’ and The Dozens Week 5 – Prose Poems Week 6 – The Coltrane Poem 2 Week 7 – Free Jazz Poetics Week 8 – Experiments in Page and Sound Week 9 – Hip-Hop: Roots Week 10 – Hip-Hop: The Twenty-First Century Secondary Reading 12 Some suggestions for secondary reading as a general introduction to the field. Assignment 12 Information about the term’s assignment: one 6,000 word essay. General Introduction to Course Reduced to simplification, distortion, or simply ignored, the forms of African-American poetry have not been well understood. By contrast, this course proposes that a study of those forms has much to tell us about past, present and Future. Beginning with the breath (the fundament) and ending with contemporary hip-hop, this course covers some of these numerous forms, from sonnets to sound poetry, signifyin(g) to prose poems, the blues to free jazz, the dozens to trap, suggesting various through-lines that might enable us to move all the way from Claude McKay to Migos. Through this, we’ll address just some of the many debates throughout the twentieth and twenty-first centuries around, for example, the role of vernacular language, ebonics / AAVE, ‘high’ and ‘low’ speech, tradition and innovation, orality and literacy.

    LOUIS JOHNSON Approfondimenti a cura di Riccardo Pantella LOUIS JOHNSON “ THUNDER-THUMBS “ Quando si parla della tecnica dello Slap spesso vengono in mente i soliti nomi di grandi musicisti, ad esempio Larry Graham che si sostiene ne sia l’inventore. Ma è impossibile parlare di questa tecnica e non citare Louis Johnson, che di certo è stato uno dei pionieri ed ha contribuito a svilupparne la tecnica. Per via del suo stile distintivo venne soprannominato Thunder-Thumbs. Da non sottovalutare le sue numerose collaborazioni come session man. Tra le più importanti potremmo citare l’album “Thriller” di Michael Jackson. Probabilmente ciò che ha dato un grande contributo alla sua carriera è stata la sua ampia musicalità e senso ritmico. BIOGRAFIA Nato a Los Angeles il 13 Aprile del 1955, Louis fin da subito mostrò un forte interesse per la musica. Suo padre regalò presto una chitarra a lui e a suo fratello George, che subito cominciarono a suonare a turno. Louis era attratto dalle note gravi e cominciò a suonare le linee di basso che ascoltava sui dischi di artisti come James Brown, The Temptations and The Supremes.. Fu così che suo padre decise di regalargli un basso, e passò poco tempo prima che Johnson cominciò a strappare e percuotere le corde per dare più groove a ciò che suonava. Tutto questo si è evoluto nella tecnica dello Slap, rendendolo un musicista di fama mondiale. Mentre era ancora a scuola a Los Angeles, insieme al fratello George e il cugino Alex Weir formarono i “Three Plus One”. Band che si è subito evoluta in un contesto professionale condividendo palchi con artisti come The Supremes e Bobby Womack.
