The band’s new album Home Recordings was released January 2013. On February 20th The Americans performed on the Late Show with David Letterman. The Americans recorded “Sweet and Low,” an original composition, for the ANTI Records album Sons of Rogue’s Gallery [Feb 2013], which features new music by Keith Richards, Macy Gray, Tom Waits, and Dr. John. Reviewing the album in April’s Believer magazine, acclaimed critic Greil Marcus wrote, “The Americans [are] led by Patrick Ferris, whose deep voice doesn’t sound like Richard Manuel’s but feels like it.” The Americans were invited to perform at the 2013 Telluride Film Festival, honoring the Coen Brothers and music producer T Bone Bur- nett for their upcoming film Inside Llewyn Davis. The band appears in the upcoming film American Epic, produced by Robert Redford, T Bone Burnett, and Jack White.

But how do I keep a positive outlook on something that has consumed a fair chunk of my life, and continues to take up so much of my time? I believe my brain loves the intersection of art, craft, and technology.

Visual Metaphors on Album Covers: an Analysis Into Graphic Design's
Visual Metaphors on Album Covers: An Analysis into Graphic Design’s Effectiveness at Conveying Music Genres by Vivian Le A THESIS submitted to Oregon State University Honors College in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Honors Baccalaureate of Science in Accounting and Business Information Systems (Honors Scholar) Presented May 29, 2020 Commencement June 2020 AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF Vivian Le for the degree of Honors Baccalaureate of Science in Accounting and Business Information Systems presented on May 29, 2020. Title: Visual Metaphors on Album Covers: An Analysis into Graphic Design’s Effectiveness at Conveying Music Genres. Abstract approved:_____________________________________________________ Ryann Reynolds-McIlnay The rise of digital streaming has largely impacted the way the average listener consumes music. Consequentially, while the role of album art has evolved to meet the changes in music technology, it is hard to measure the effect of digital streaming on modern album art. This research seeks to determine whether or not graphic design still plays a role in marketing information about the music, such as its genre, to the consumer. It does so through two studies: 1. A computer visual analysis that measures color dominance of an image, and 2. A mixed-design lab experiment with volunteer participants who attempt to assess the genre of a given album. Findings from the first study show that color scheme models created from album samples cannot be used to predict the genre of an album. Further findings from the second theory show that consumers pay a significant amount of attention to album covers, enough to be able to correctly assess the genre of an album most of the time.

Wmc Investigation: 10-Year Analysis of Gender & Oscar
WMC INVESTIGATION: 10-YEAR ANALYSIS OF GENDER & OSCAR NOMINATIONS womensmediacenter.com @womensmediacntr WOMEN’S MEDIA CENTER ABOUT THE WOMEN’S MEDIA CENTER In 2005, Jane Fonda, Robin Morgan, and Gloria Steinem founded the Women’s Media Center (WMC), a progressive, nonpartisan, nonproft organization endeav- oring to raise the visibility, viability, and decision-making power of women and girls in media and thereby ensuring that their stories get told and their voices are heard. To reach those necessary goals, we strategically use an array of interconnected channels and platforms to transform not only the media landscape but also a cul- ture in which women’s and girls’ voices, stories, experiences, and images are nei- ther suffciently amplifed nor placed on par with the voices, stories, experiences, and images of men and boys. Our strategic tools include monitoring the media; commissioning and conducting research; and undertaking other special initiatives to spotlight gender and racial bias in news coverage, entertainment flm and television, social media, and other key sectors. Our publications include the book “Unspinning the Spin: The Women’s Media Center Guide to Fair and Accurate Language”; “The Women’s Media Center’s Media Guide to Gender Neutral Coverage of Women Candidates + Politicians”; “The Women’s Media Center Media Guide to Covering Reproductive Issues”; “WMC Media Watch: The Gender Gap in Coverage of Reproductive Issues”; “Writing Rape: How U.S. Media Cover Campus Rape and Sexual Assault”; “WMC Investigation: 10-Year Review of Gender & Emmy Nominations”; and the Women’s Media Center’s annual WMC Status of Women in the U.S.

By the Numbers... ACLU of Utah's Highlights from FY 2013-2014
ACLU OF UTAH Dear Friends, It is with great pleasure that I present the ACLU of Utah’s 2013-2014 annual report to our members, friends, supporters and partners. Reflecting on the past year, I am amazed at what we, as a community, have accomplished. With your support, we have passed some of the most progressive voting legislation in the country. We have defended the rights of more than 1,200 married couples when the State threatened to invalidate those rights. We have made our law enforcement more accountable and our communities safer. We have made Utah the first state that protects both location information and electronic communications content from government access. But that does not mean that we get to rest easy. There is still much to be done in our state, and so we are harnessing this momentum to tackle new Karen McCreary, Executive Director challenges and shore up our defenses against new threats. We will keep on fighting for voting rights, equality, criminal justice and privacy, as well as the many other issues that are near and dear to the ACLU of Utah, such as women’s reproductive rights and immigrant rights. Many of these battles will be even bigger and more complex than those we waged this past year, and they will require the full force of our legal expertise, experience and resources. But I am confident that, with supporters like you standing behind us, 2015 will be another landmark year for civil liberties in the state of Utah. In this report, you will find highlights of our work and an overview of victories that we celebrated this past year.
