Over the years, one of the key vehicles for communications with the candidates and general discussion of the election has been, and continues to be, the Official Election List. We am pleased to announce that the 2010 Election list will be open for business effective June 1st. This list will be, as always, intended for questions and answers between the candidates and members of STARFLEET. Discussion of the election is also permitted on the list. To sign up for the election list, please visit the website below: http://lists.sfi.org/listinfo.cgi/election2010-sfi.org Vice-Chief of Communications, MGEN Dennis Rayburn, has been assigned the task of being the Moderator and one of the three list administrators. The other two administrators are Chief of Communications RADM Jonathan Lane, and STARFLEET Inspector General Wade Hoover. The list will be operated in a family-friendly format. So please keep the language clean with that in mind. The list is restricted to election business only; any other topics will be requested to be moved elsewhere. Dennis Rayburn will be very actively moderating the list this year. An escalating series of moderation actions—from warning to temporary suspension to full moderation—will be taken for members who exhibit disruptive behavior deemed to be violating the list rules (which will be e-mailed monthly to all list subscribers). Moderation decisions can be appealed to Jon Lane and Wade Hoover, but their decisions become final after that. Let’s make this an informative, dynamic, but most of all civil election season, folks. Choosing the leaders for this club is a responsibility that all of us members share equally. Be involved. AROUND THE FLEET Region 7 EVENT Lt. Colonel Anne Zecca displays a special certificate that was presented by Region two members to the corporate headquarters of Life South Blood Center in Gainesville, Florida. At the Region 2 Summit, STARFLEET members were involved in a Blood Drive and collected seven units (pints) of blood. Afterward, they presented this Certificate of Appreciation to the director of the blood center, Mr. Kenneth Story. The blood drive was held at the Holiday Day Inn in Columbus, Georgia. Vice Admiral Freddy Heller of the host chapter USS DaVinci was the promoter of the event. Also at the event was Colonel Joe Gallagher, Starfleet Medical, who held a CPR class.

My own small contribution to this legendary story has continued to be a source of great pride to me during my career, and although I have been fortunate enough to have many other projects to satisfy the artist in me, I have nevertheless always felt a deep and visceral connection to the show. But there are reasons why this never- ending story has endured. I have always believed that this special connection to Star Trek we all enjoy comes from the positive picture the stories consistently envision.

  • An Examination of Jerry Goldsmith's
    THE FORBIDDEN ZONE, ESCAPING EARTH AND TONALITY: AN EXAMINATION OF JERRY GOLDSMITH’S TWELVE-TONE SCORE FOR PLANET OF THE APES VINCENT GASSI A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE STUDIES IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY GRADUATE PROGRAM IN MUSIC YORK UNIVERSITY TORONTO, ONTARIO MAY 2019 © VINCENT GASSI, 2019 ii ABSTRACT Jerry GoldsMith’s twelve-tone score for Planet of the Apes (1968) stands apart in Hollywood’s long history of tonal scores. His extensive use of tone rows and permutations throughout the entire score helped to create the diegetic world so integral to the success of the filM. GoldsMith’s formative years prior to 1967–his training and day to day experience of writing Music for draMatic situations—were critical factors in preparing hiM to meet this challenge. A review of the research on music and eMotion, together with an analysis of GoldsMith’s methods, shows how, in 1967, he was able to create an expressive twelve-tone score which supported the narrative of the filM. The score for Planet of the Apes Marks a pivotal moment in an industry with a long-standing bias toward modernist music. iii For Mary and Bruno Gassi. The gift of music you passed on was a game-changer. iv ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Heartfelt thanks and much love go to my aMazing wife Alison and our awesome children, Daniela, Vince Jr., and Shira, without whose unending patience and encourageMent I could do nothing. I aM ever grateful to my brother Carmen Gassi, not only for introducing me to the music of Jerry GoldsMith, but also for our ongoing conversations over the years about filM music, composers, and composition in general; I’ve learned so much.

  • 5. Chord Changes
    How Film & TV Music Communicate – Vol.2 Text © Brian Morrell 2013 Chapter 5 I N S P A C E E V E R Y O N E C A N H E A R T H E C H O R D C H A N G E S ( p a r t 1 ) This chapter will examine the music for some of the most eminent and successful ‘Space movies’ in cinema history. The chapter will examine numerous memorable, famous and iconic science fiction films, most of them with a unifying theme of either being set in Space and/or involving Aliens. It will also ask whether there are inherently ‘sci-fi’ methods of composing music and if there are chord changes, orchestration techniques or melodic devices which are commonly used. Films and music discussed are: Alien (Jerry Goldsmith / Howard Hanson) Aliens (James Horner) Apollo 13 (James Horner) Independence Day, (David Arnold) Star Trek (Alexander Courage, Jerry Goldsmith, James Horner and Michael Giacchano) Mission to Mars (Ennio Morricone) Batman Forever (Elliot Goldenthal) ALIEN Jerry Goldsmith Alien is a 1979 science fiction film directed by Ridley Scott. The lead character is a creature that stalks and kills nearly the entire crew of a spaceship. The common mantra that Alien was to Star Wars what the Rolling Stones were to the Beatles goes some way to articulating how the film Alien is perceived by cinema-goers. Alien offers a subtle, cold, desolate environment; it lacks the usual Hollywood sheen – the razzmatazz, the glitz and the spectacle. It is a slow, plodding, brooding, dark film but one which completely captured the imagination of people who watched it.
