  • Art & Early Childhood: Personal Narratives & Social Practices
    Occasional Paper Series 31 BAnk Street College of Education Art & Early Childhood: Personal Narratives & Social Practices Introduction by Kris Sunday, Marissa McClure, Christopher Schulte Young children are explorers of their worlds—worlds filled with unfamiliar things, first experiences, and tentative explanations. As Lowenfeld (1957) recognized, art originates with children’s experiences of their immediate surroundings. Young children’s encounters with art provide a means to explore ideas and materials, invent worlds, and set them in motion. As a language and mode of communication, art offers children the opportunity to play with ideas and generate conclusions about themselves and their experiences. The communicative nature of children’s artwork suggests their desire to be heard and understood by those around them. In this issue of Bank Street’s Occasional Paper Series, we explore the nature of childhood by offering selections that re/imagine the idea of the child as art maker, inquire about the relationships between children and adults when they are making art, and investigate how physical space influences our approaches to art instruction. We invite readers to join a dialogue that questions long-standing traditions of early childhood art—traditions grounded in a modernist view of children’s art as a romantic expression of inner emotional and/or developmental trajectories. We have also selected essays that create liminal spaces for reflection, dialogue, and critique of the views that have heretofore governed understandings of children and their art. We draw from current perspectives on children’s art making as social practice (Pearson, 2001). In framing our understanding of children’s art within larger conversations about contemporary art, we move beyond the modernist view.

  • Notes from the Artistic Director
    Notes from the Artistic Director Yehezkel Braun was born in Breslau, Germany in 1922, and was brought to the land of Israel with his parents when he was two years old. Braun recalled that his earliest musical memories were on the one hand the recordings of Italian opera that his father would often play, notably Madame Butterfly and La Bohème, and on the other hand the indigenous singing of Yemenite women who would pass by his home on their way to work. Braun studied composition with Alexander Boscovic, who believed that composers should strive to cultivate an “Israeli” style by consciously incorporating rhythms and melodic motifs borrowed from traditional Jewish chant. Braun was certainly attracted to traditional Jewish melodies; he collected them and used many of them in his compositions. But he also was attracted to Gregorian Chant, in which he immersed himself with several sojourns to the Solemnes Monastery. He studied music at the Tel Aviv Academy, from which he graduated in 1953, and then returned to academia two decades later to study for a bachelor’s degree in Classics at Tel Aviv University. One can hear all these influences in Braun’s music. Braun’s love of vocal melodies is certainly appreciated by anyone who sings his music. Many years ago Braun told me that he doesn’t compose harmonically, rather he composes “horizontally,” conceiving of each voice part as its own melody. And as Jehoash Hirshberg pointed out in a recent article, Braun never thought about composing while he was composing. Braun wrote, “I gave up on two things: on thinking about music and on thinking what to think and how to think, to compose while thinking.

  • The Blowing Snow Observations at the University of North Dakota: Education Through
    1 Bringing Microphysics to the Masses: The Blowing Snow Observations at the University of 2 North Dakota: Education through Research (BLOWN-UNDER) Campaign 3 Aaron Kennedy1, Aaron Scott1, Nicole Loeb2, Alec Sczepanski1, Kaela Lucke1, Jared Marquis1, 4 Sean Waugh3 5 1. Dept. of Atmospheric Sciences, University of North Dakota, Grand Forks, North Dakota 6 2. Department of Environment and Geography, University of Manitoba 7 3. NOAA National Severe Storms Laboratory, Norman, Oklahoma 8 Abstract 9 Harsh winters and hazards such as blizzards are synonymous with the northern Great Plains 10 of the United States. Studying these events is difficult; the juxtaposition of cold temperatures and 11 high winds makes microphysical observations of both blowing and falling snow challenging. 12 Historically, these observations have been provided by costly hydrometeor imagers that have been 13 deployed for field campaigns or at select observation sites. This has slowed the development and 14 validation of microphysics parameterizations and remote-sensing retrievals of various properties. 15 If cheaper, more mobile instrumentation can be developed, this progress can be accelerated. 16 Further, lowering price barriers can make deployment of instrumentation feasible for education 17 and outreach purposes. 18 The Blowing Snow Observations at the University of North Dakota: Education through 19 Research (BLOWN-UNDER) Campaign took place during the winter of 2019-2020 to investigate 1 20 strategies for obtaining microphysical measurements in the harsh North Dakota winter. Student 21 led, the project blended education, outreach, and scientific objectives.

It is you, the people, that make that true. Each of you give to this museum and make it stronger and better. You are helping to shape what BRAHM needs to be, to best serve this community and I thank you. 2016 was a year of growth for BRAHM. As of this past year, we are now debt free. It was a growth year for attendance (up 23.5%), memberships (up 3.5%), and programs! The year was full of highlights such as the Elizabeth Bradford exhibition, generously presented by Wells Fargo Private Bank, and the fabulous opening reception and programming that accompanied the exhibit. The Art Ball transformed the museum into a palette of vibrant color and guests enjoyed an evening of fabulous food and a celebration of the arts, from fine arts to culinary arts. All year long, children’s voices have filled the galleries more than ever as our education program has grown and as we intentionally expand our outreach to families.

  • FAHRENHEIT 451 by Ray Bradbury
    1 FAHRENHEIT 451 By Ray Bradbury This one, with gratitude, is for DON CONGDON. FAHRENHEIT 451: The temperature at which book- paper catches fire and burns 2 PART I IT WAS A PLEASURE TO BURN IT was a special pleasure to see things eaten, to see things blackened and changed. With the brass nozzle in his fists, with this great python spitting its venomous kerosene upon the world, the blood pounded in his head, and his hands were the hands of some amazing conductor playing all the symphonies of blazing and burning to bring down the tatters and charcoal ruins of history. With his symbolic helmet numbered 451 on his stolid head, and his eyes all orange flame with the thought of what came next, he flicked the 3 igniter and the house jumped up in a gorging fire that burned the evening sky red and yellow and black. He strode in a swarm of fireflies. He wanted above all, like the old joke, to shove a marshmallow on a stick in the furnace, while the flapping pigeon- winged books died on the porch and lawn of the house. While the books went up in sparkling whirls and blew away on a wind turned dark with burning. Montag grinned the fierce grin of all men singed and driven back by flame. He knew that when he returned to the firehouse, he might wink at 4 himself, a minstrel man, burnt- corked, in the mirror. Later, going to sleep, he would feel the fiery smile still gripped by his face muscles, in the dark.

  • OLD GODS of APPALACHIA Season 2 Episode 17: the Boy Who Could Not Die
    OLD GODS OF APPALACHIA Season 2 Episode 17: The Boy Who Could Not Die Old Gods of Appalachia is a horror anthology podcast and therefore may contain material not suitable for all audiences, so listener discretion is advised. There are places in these mountains that are safer than others. There are mining towns that bustle with life and prosperity by day, that turn dark with drink and the blowing off of steam in the night. There are heart-built communities and homesteads that stand strong and reliable, the very bedrock of the heritage of folks who work and live on this land. There are churches that stand as the beacons of God’s light amongst the wilderness, and others where pride and bigotry and hypocrisy have shuttered that light. There are miles and miles of dark woods rife with dangerous critters, both natural and unnatural, and neither one knowed any fear of man. There are deep caves that seem like shelter until you venture further in, as well as questionable-looking shacks and old concrete bunkers that provide a much safer refuge, but none of those havens were as remotely as safe as the Walker House. Built on a hill overlooking the expanse of Baker’s Gap proper, the Walker House was both a refuge and comfort and a fortress against both the seen and unseen worlds. Originally conceived as Pleasant Evenings, a parlor house in a less complicated time, the building was sound and handsome. The house was tall and held a story above and a story below the main floor.
