    A Brand New Resource For Your Music Classroom! GAMES & GROOVES FOR BUCKET BAND, RHYTHM STICKS, AND LOTS OF JOYOUS INSTRUMENTS by John Riggio and Paul Jennings Over the last few years, bucket bands have grown greatly in popularity. Percussion is an ideal way to teach rhythmic concepts and this low-cost percussion ensemble is a great way to feel the joy of group performance without breaking your budget. This unique new product by John Riggio and Paul Jennings is designed for players just beyond beginners, though some or all players can easily adapt the included parts. Unlike some bucket band music, this is written with just one bucket part, intended to be performed on a small to medium-size bucket. If your ensemble has large/bass buckets, they can either play the written part or devise a more bass-like part to add. Every selection features rhythm sticks, though the tracks are designed to work with just buckets, or any combination of the parts provided. These change from tune to tune and include Boomwhackers®, ukulele, cowbell, shaker, guiro, and more. There are two basic types of tunes here, games and game-like tunes, and grooves. The games each stand on their own, and the grooves are short, repetitive, and fun to play, with many repeats. Some songs have multiple tempos to ease learning. And, as you may have learned with other music from Plank Road Publishing and MUSIC K-8, we encourage and permit you to adapt all music to best serve your needs. This unique collection includes: • Grizzly Bear Groove • Buckets Are Forever (A Secret Agent Groove) • Grape Jelly Groove • Divide & Echo • Build-A-Beat • Rhythm Roundabout ...and more! These tracks were produced by John Riggio, who brings you many of Plank Road’s most popular works.

  • Troubleshooting Video Toaster [2] Revised October 15, 2002
    Troubleshooting Video Toaster [2] Revised October 15, 2002 1. Hardware 1.1 Controllers Adaptec 19160 if using the internal connections don’t use the SCSI160 port next to the old 50 pin connector, it is limited to the old speed. Hook up the SCSI cable to the other port that is by itself. Further, the external connector on the back of this controller is NOT LVD capable, so if using an external drive case, hook the external ribbon up to the 19160's internal connector. You can also buy an L-connector that connects to the card and provides for a slot connector using an empty PCI slot. IDE RAIDs Contributed by Ryan McClure: I just wanted to let you know that the RAID I built with four Western Digital HDDs works with Toaster successfully. The Western Digital drives are 120 GB in size with 8 MB data buffers. They are connected to a Promise Technologies SuperTRAK SX6000 RAID card. This gives me about 36.0 MB/sec. 1.2 Drives 3Ware Controller 3Ware says It is very important to set the cluster size to 64k on the Escalade's video drives. Setting it to 1024 will cause heavy fragmentation and quickly choke the system. Creating a Stripe Set To create a stripe set for Windows 2000 1 Double click on the following icons: My Computer, Control Panel, Administrative Tools, Computer Management, Storage, and Disk Management. This will open the W2000, Disk Management window which list all of the removeable, CD-Rom, and hard drives on your system. 2 Scroll down the drive list to locate the drives you want to include in your striped set.

    Praise for Blu-ray Disc Demystified “BD Demystified is an essential reference for designers and developers building with- in Blu-ray’s unique framework and provides them with the knowledge to deliver a compelling user experience with seamlessly integrated multimedia.” — Lee Evans, Ambient Digital Media, Inc., Marina del Rey, CA “Jim’s Demystified books are the definitive resource for anyone wishing to learn about optical media technologies.” — Bram Wessel, CTO and Co-Founder, Metabeam Corporation “As he did with such clarity for DVD, Jim Taylor (along with his team of experts) again lights the way for both professionals and consumers, pointing out the sights, warning us of the obstacles and giving us the lay of the land on our journey to a new high-definition disc format.” — Van Ling, Blu-ray/DVD Producer, Los Angeles, CA “Blu-ray Disc Demystified is an excellent reference for those at all levels of BD pro- duction. Everyone from novices to veterans will find useful information contained within. The authors have done a great job making difficult subjects like AACS encryption, BD-Java, and authoring for Blu-ray easy to understand.” — Jess Bowers, Director, Technical Services, 1K Studios, Burbank, CA “Like its red-laser predecessor, Blu-ray Disc Demystified will immediately take its rightful place as the definitive reference book on producing BD.

  • Random Access Montage. How Online Access Has Changed Amateur Video Editing Benjamin Eugster :ßrich5NIVERSITY E-Mail: [email protected]
    ACTA UNIV. SAPIENTIAE, FILM AND MEDIA STUDIES, 9 (2014) 107–124 10.1515/ausfm-2015-0005 Random Access Montage. How Online Access Has Changed Amateur Video Editing Benjamin Eugster :ßRICH5NIVERSITY E-mail: [email protected] Abstract. Digital technology has often been discussed in relation to how it changed either the production or the reception of audiovisual cultures. This paper will consider a combination of both as a crucial part in understanding strategies of inter- and transmedial amateur creativity. "ASED ON AN EXPERIMENTAL ETHNOGRAPHY OF THE ONLINE VIDEO SUBGENRE subculture “YouTubePoop,” the paper will elaborate on the connection between the individual experience and the creation of digital media. The loose collective of independent amateurs behind the YouTubePoop videos makes use of already existing audiovisual material ranging from television shows to videos of other YouTube users. The re-created remixes and mash- ups are characterized by their random selection of original material and their nonsensical humour. Hence, the rapid montage of this heterogeneous CONTENTISJUSTASMUCHPARTOFTHEINTENSIlEDAESTHETICEXPRESSIVENESSAS are the applied special effects available in the digital video editing software. Both aspects highlight the strong interdependence of the rapid accessibility of online content and digital technology and the new aesthetic expressions they are fostering. The paper will show how the experience and navigation of digital interfaces (editing software, media players, or homepages) affect the design and practice of these video-remixes. This will open the discussion about intertextual strategies of media appropriation to an aesthetic and praxeological analysis of media interaction. Keywords: Amateur culture, montage and video editing, online video, YouTubePoop, software studies. How Does Digital Technology Affect Cultural Production? Intermediality is a central aesthetic feature of new media technologies.

  • Commodore Enters in the Play “Business Is War, I Don't Believe in Compromising, I Believe in Winning” - Jack Tramiel
    Commodore enters in the play “Business is war, I don't believe in compromising, I believe in winning” - Jack_Tramiel Commodore_International Logo Commodore International was an American home computer and electronics manufacturer founded by Jack Tramiel. Commodore International (CI), along with its subsidiary Commodore Business Machines (CBM), participated in the development of the home personal computer industry in the 1970s and 1980s. CBM developed and marketed the world's best-selling desktop computer, the Commodore 64 (1982), and released its Amiga computer line in July 1985. With quarterly sales ending 1983 of $49 million (equivalent to $106 million in 2018), Commodore was one of the world's largest personal computer manufacturers. Commodore: the beginnings The company that would become Commodore Business Machines, Inc. was founded in 1954 in Toronto as the Commodore Portable Typewriter Company by Polish-Jewish immigrant and Auschwitz survivor Jack Tramiel. By the late 1950s a wave of Japanese machines forced most North American typewriter companies to cease business, but Tramiel instead turned to adding machines. In 1955, the company was formally incorporated as Commodore Business Machines, Inc. (CBM) in Canada. In 1962 Commodore went public on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE), under the name of Commodore International Limited. Commodore soon had a profitable calculator line and was one of the more popular brands in the early 1970s, producing both consumer as well as scientific/programmable calculators. However, in 1975, Texas Instruments, the main supplier of calculator parts, entered the market directly and put out a line of machines priced at less than Commodore's cost for the parts.
