  • Flopen 2020 Packet K: FST Expansion Pack Edited By: Taylor
    FLopen 2020 Packet K: FST expansion pack Edited by: Taylor Harvey and Jonathen Settle Written by: Mateo Javier Acosta, Mike Bentley, Nicholas Dai, Anthony Delgado, William Grossman, Shawn Jarrard, Zachary Knecht, Leo Law, Lalit Maharjan, Tracy Mirkin, Khanh Nguyen, Grant Peet, Ani Perumalla, Jason Zappulla, and the editors Tossups 1. These people’s love of tobacco is attested by the fact that their word for “poor” literally means “without ​ tobacco.” In the creation myth of these people, women are born from the wabu fruit while men are born from ​ ​ the silver blood of the moon. These people’s multi-village, plantain-heavy feasts often feature ritualized chest slapping duels. These people wear a distinctive bowl-shaped haircut with the topmost crown of the head shaved bald. A widely disputed book by Patrick (*) Tierney accused James Neel of purposely exacerbating a ​ measles outbreak among these people; that book is Darkness at El Dorado. Films of these people like “The Axe ​ ​ Fight'' purport to show their culture as one characterized by “constant warfare.” For 10 points, name this Amazonian tribe who live in Brazil and Venezuela, who were called “a fierce people” in an ethnography by Napoleon Chagnon. ANSWER: Yanomami [accept Yąnomamö; accept Yanomama; prompt on Amazonian people until “Amazonian” ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ is read; prompt on Indigenous peoples of America; prompt on American Indians; prompt on Native Americans; ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ prompt on Amerindians] ​ ​ ​ <Social Science: Sociology/Anthropology, TH> 2. In a novel by this author, the narrator uses the codenames “Buzz” and “The Black Mamba” in her ​ childhood journal, except in one reading: “Dear God, I wish Nana would just die already, please, just let this be over.” That novel by this author interweaves flashbacks of the narrator’s Pentecostal upbringing in Huntsville with her life in the present performing optogenetic experiments on mice.

Focusing steadily on futuristic cities and Tokyo’s evolution, the company’s numerous urban redevelopment projects in central Tokyo—including ARK Hills, Omotesando Hills, Roppongi Hills and Toranomon Hills—have consistently offered the most advanced proposals for a better city in each era. Urban development is the process of creating a better future by imagining new ways for people to live, work, and interact in cities that can continuously evolve and mature to keep up with ever-changing society, even after its completion. Mori Building Brand Movie “DESIGNING TOKYO” vividly recreates urban scenery and culture (including symbolic persons from each era) realized by the company’s various projects through cutting-edge technologies, ultimately to consider the future that lays ahead for Tokyo. ■Adverting Agency and Production Companies Advertising agency: DENTSU INC.

  • Ryuichi Sakamoto
    Ryuichi Sakamoto Born in 1952, Sakamoto released his debut solo album Thousand Knives in 1978. In the same year, he formed the pioneering electronic band Yellow Magic Orchestra (YMO) with Haruomi Hosono and Yukihiro Takahashi. Since YMO disbanded in 1983, he has continued to be active in and beyond the realm of media in the fields of music, movies, publishing, advertising and others. In 1984, he won a British Academy Film Award among other accolades for Merry Christmas, Mr. Lawrence, which he starred in and composed the score for. He later won an Academy Award and a Grammy among other honors for his score to the 1987 film The Last Emperor. He has since changed his career base to the West and earned an international reputation for pursuing innovative sounds. In Japan, Sakamoto advocated the revitalization of the nation’s music industry and established the commons music community in 2006 to provide common ground for music-related activities transcending genres and categories. Since the release of his opera LIFE in 1999, Sakamoto has often made reference to environmental and peace issues in his works. In 2000, he contributed to the efforts of Jubilee 2000 – an international movement calling for the cancellation of debts weighing on the world’s poorest countries by the year 2000 with supporters including Bono from rock band U2 and Bob Geldof. In 2001, he founded artists’ power, an artists’ organization advocating the use of renewable energy. He joined fellow members Takeshi Kobayashi and Kazutoshi Sakurai in founding the NGO ap bank in 2003. In 2006, he opposed the operation of the Rokkasho Reprocessing Plant and launched the website stop-rokkasho.org.

Interview: Rich Mangicaro - Photos: Rob Shanahan 015 Parents have a powerful and positive impact upon the development and health of their children. The relationship between father and son early on in life is crucial—dad is his son’s first role model. He is both consciously and subconsciously observed, and his words and actions are absorbed, even before the child’s first spoken word. With an artistic parent, a child can be influenced even while still in the womb; rhythms and melodies permeate mama’s belly and the child is most definitely affected by this. Some say it’s the beginning of ‘natural talent’ or ‘being born with it.’ Some say the child is an old soul. To have one child that is born with this natural artistic talent is quite something to behold, but to have four?! This is extraordinary. Thus is the case with the Wackerman family. Hailing from Orange County, California, this gifted musical family has inspired thousands of musicians worldwide. All four of Chuck and Barbara Wackerman’s sons are absolute virtuosos on their instrument. Three of their sons, Chad, John and Brooks became drummers like their dad. Equally as talented as his drumming brothers, Bob Wackerman chose the drummer’s right-hand instrument, the bass.

  • Jazz Rock Fusion Surviving Four Decades and Counting…
    1 of 38 Jazz Rock Fusion Surviving Four Decades and Counting… By, Rick Calic www.jazzrockworld.com March 2006 Writing an article about Jazz Rock Fusion these days might seem as pointless as debating the benefits of Hi-Fi equipment with vacuum tubes vs. transistors to someone that uses an iPod. The only people that would care are older folks who even remember tubes and dedicated enthusiasts. On the other hand, while Jazz Rock Fusion might be older or seem equally pointless to many reading this article, there remains a large but scattered segment of the world’s population that sees the genre as a vibrant and legitimate art form. Sadly though, the musical perspective regarding Jazz Rock Fusion was narrow from the beginning and will probably always be that way. Jazz Rock Fusion, in terms of the entire world of music, constitutes just a tiny fraction of interest. Yet, if we accept this as fact, which most fans, musicians and certainly “big business” does, the generation of any interest at all is meritorious. In order to discuss the music with integrity, a ground rule needs to be established. This ground rule is required due to the unsolved, long lasting, and ongoing mysteries of the music and its unique identity. Mysteries such as: What is Jazz Rock Fusion? Who started Jazz Rock Fusion? What should it be called? And finally, with no major media support why is there still a market? So, what are the answers you ask? Quite simply these mysteries will remain mysteries. Answering the questions definitively will end up as trivial as the facts regarding the creation and development of the gut bucket.

But guitar has been making a strong case for decades now and some of the most compelling players in jazz history have been six-stringers.

We feature three of them in this, our special Guitar Issue. George Benson (On The Cover) has been a polarizing figure, heir to the throne of Wes 6 by Ryan Blotnick Montgomery but willing to disappoint purists because of his crossover activities; Artist Feature: Mary Halvorson Benson plays Town Hall this month in support of his new (return-to-jazz) album Guitar Man. Vic Juris (Interview) got his start, like many of his kind, working with by Martin Longley 7 organists, but also absorbed the nascent fusion movement, establishing his On The Cover: George Benson credentials with Dave Liebman and as a leader and educator; Juris plays around by Bill Milkowski town several times this month.
