Virtual Dance Instructions Teddi 39 Virtual Dancer Instruction Packet 1 Dear Committee, Dancers, Volunteers, and Supporters, This has been an unprecedented year of unknowns, ups, downs, planning, replanning and immense difficulties due to the COVID pandemic for everyone. For 38 years, we have been dancing together for 24 hours, screaming the best songs at 5am at the top of our lungs, without a care in the world. I would have never thought at the end of Teddi 38 last year we would be where we are now, holding the first Virtual Teddi in history. With all of that being said, this year has also brought out the best of the Teddi Dance for Love Committee. Throughout these tough times, the Teddi 39 Committee never ceases to amaze me. Whether it is a Committee member emailing me with an amazing fundraising idea, or seeing the continuous participation of over 250 Committee members throughout a pandemic, it has truly shown me the resilience of St. John Fisher students and the love that they have for the Teddi Dance for Love. To the Committee: I am so incredibly proud of you all! No matter how unknown the ​ future of Teddi 39 was- you stuck with us! All the late night Zoom meetings, Instagram posts, and virtual fundraisers have gotten us this far! Know that YOU kept the Teddi tradition at Fisher going this year through one of the most unforeseeable years in Fisher/Teddi history! Let’s take these next 24 hours to “virtually together” celebrate conquering the struggles of this year and the continued work of Camp Good Days and Special Times! Out of all the Teddis, this will be my most memorable one because of the constant support through this pandemic with this amazing Committee. To our Virtual Dancers: Cancer doesn’t stop during a pandemic, so neither will we! It’s ​ time to DANCE LIKE NOBODY'S WATCHING! Although we cannot be together dancing in the SLC this year, all of your energy will still be felt throughout the Fisher campus. These next 24 hours are what we make of them so let’s do this together and let’s make some Teddi history! Have fun with your roommates and friends- remember to wear a mask- and let’s have some safe fun! To all of our Supporters and Donors: We would not have been able to make it ​ through this year without you! If this year has taught me anything, it is that so many people are willing to lend a helping hand and do some good for the Teddi tradition. We appreciate you all more than you know and we would not be here today without all the overwhelming support we have received this year. Lots of Teddi Love to you all! “Let's do all that we can, with all that we have, in the place where we are, with the time we are given.” Here to the next 24 virtual hours, let’s make some Teddi history. Woah Teddi Emily Trotman Teddi 39 Chair 2 Dear Committee, Dancers, Volunteers, and Supporters, ​ Teddi 39 has been filled with challenges, adjustments, and most of all uncertainty due to the Covid-19 pandemic. With that being said the Teddi 39 committee has blown me away with your immense support and dedication in this ever changing situation. It has truly shown me that with the selfless support of 250 plus committee members we are able to band together to accomplish something for a greater cause, the cause of Camp Good Days and Special Times. We started out the semester with the saying “cancer doesn't stop during a pandemic so neither should we” and throughout these last six months the students of St. John Fisher have embodied the phrase and rose to the challenge. To the Committee: WOW! Your time is here and enjoy these next 24 hours. This is ​ what all your hard work and dedication has been leading to. The late night Zoom meeting the virtual fundraisers and most importantly the tradition of raising funds for the children and their families at Camp Good Days and Special Times. Let’s make some Teddi history as we host the first virtual Teddi in Fishers history, without each and every one of you Teddi 39 would not be what it is thank you to our entire committee. Let’s go make some memories! To our Virtual Dancers: While we are unable to dance all together in the SLC this ​ year, I have no doubt that your energy and enthusiasm will ring throughout campus for these next 24 hours! DANCE LIKE NOBODY'S WATCHING! Let’s go have some fun and make some Teddi history! To all of our Supporters and Donors: Without your continued support of the ​ students of St. John Fisher as well as the Teddi Dance for Love we would not be where we are today. While the pandemic has caused many new normals there is one constant, the Teddi Dance for Love we appreciate every single one of you while I know we would all love to be together here today. I thank you from the bottom of my heart for the outpouring of support we have received this year. “Let’s do all that we can, with all that we have, in the place where we are, with the time we are given.” Here to the next 24 virtual hours, let’s make some Teddi history. Woah Teddi Sam Carson Teddi 39 Vice Chair 3 TEDDI 39 VIRTUAL DANCE INSTRUCTION PACKET Here is your packet filled with all the information regarding the minute by ​ ​ minute schedule for the Virtual 39th Annual Teddi Dance for Love. Live Stream The link to our live stream will be on the website. The Livestream will also be feeding into the Zoom link so you will be able to watch the live stream on there as well. We will be communicating to you through both options, however all dancers will be dancing on Zoom. **We ask that your cameras be on-The Teddi Dance isn’t what it is without our committee, therefore it would be great to have your cameras turned on for our sake as well, so we can see you!** We will be putting the Zoom screen up on our big screen at points throughout the dance, so please have your cameras on and make sure everything on screen is appropriate! Our Live stream will be open to the public, so anyone will be able to see what you are doing. Zoom Link for the 24 hours We will have a Zoom link for Committee members, as well as a Zoom link for Non-Committee members or any participants outside of the college. If you are friends with/planning on Zooming in with another friend (in your Teddi masks of course, and they are not in the Committee, they do not have to sign in separately, however if they are going to be Zooming in separately, they should use the non-committee member Zoom link. We will be Meal Times In your bag, you should have a meal time assignment (a colored card with a country name on it). On that card, it has your meal times when you can go get your Teddi meals from the Dining Hall. In your bag, you will also have three Teddi meal vouchers so you do not need to use a meal swipe! We will be announcing when people will be dismissed to go get their meals. Safe Spaces to Eat: 4 ● Dining Hall ● Mainstage ● Your own room with only your roommate ○ If you are dancing with students other than your roommate, you will not be able to eat together- go back to your room or use one of these spaces. ○ You can still access our livestream/Zoom on your phone! Take your phone/computer to Mainstage while you eat! 5 Rules for the Teddi Dance for Love Teddi Dance for Love dancers will adhere to the residence hall guidelines and procedures to make it the safest experiences for all dancers- we do NOT want the Teddi Dance for Love to be a super spreader! Just because the Teddi Dance for Love is going on does NOT mean that the residential hall rules don’t apply. Here are some of the main rules that would apply to follow: Mask Use While in the residence halls, students must wear a mask or face covering unless in your room alone or with your roommate. If someone enters the room who is not assigned to it, everyone must wear a mask and practice social distancing. Social Distancing Please remember to always maintain 6 ft. social distance. Room Occupancy Maximum room occupancy for single and double rooms is double the assigned occupancy of the room (i.e., a double room may have no more than four people in the room at one time). The maximum occupancy for Founders Hall suites is six people. Residence Hall Guests Resident students can host other residential students in their room during visitation hours. Please review the inter-hall guest policy for more ​ information. ​ Noise & Quiet Hours Quiet hours are observed from 1 a.m. to 11 a.m. on Friday and Saturday. 1. During quiet hours, noise must not be heard beyond the limits of an individual's room/suite including personal noises (voices, electronic equipment, etc.). 2. Courtesy hours are in effect 24 hours a day. Note: In your bags, you will also have Door tags! This shows other ​ students that you are in Teddi! Feel free to decorate these, and when you put them up, maybe walk over to your neighbor and let them 6 know you will be dancing for Teddi! Please be mindful of everyone around you and be courteous! 3.

    RecordingRevolution.com 6 Steps To A Radio-Ready Song by Graham Cochrane Thank you for downloading this guide! As a singer/songwriter myself, I know the goal of every musician in the home studio is to start creating killer songs - songs that sound so good they could be played on the radio, TV, or just about anywhere. You probably have great song ideas already but simply aren’t able to get your recordings to translate from your head to the real world and sound professional. I’m here to help you with that. In this brief guide I’m going to walk you through the 6 steps that every radio-ready song must go through in order to sound its best. Even if your music will never be heard on the radio, you still want it to sound good enough to hang with “the big boys and girls”. My promise to you is that after reading this guide, you’ll know exactly what it takes to get the best sounding recordings in your home studio and you’ll be motivated to get back to work and start creating your best music yet. Ready to get started? Let’s dive in Graham Cochrane (Founder, RecordingRevolution.com) RecordingRevolution.com STEP 1: Lyrics & Melody The best recordings in the world start long before the recording phase. They begin with great lyrics and killer melodies. The best vocal microphone in the world is useless if the song you’re singing has a boring or hard to remember melody, cumbersome lyrics, and overall bad flow.

  • Digitalbeing: Visual Aesthetic Expression Through Dance
    DigitalBeing – Using the Environment as an Expressive Medium for Dance Magy Seif El-Nasr Thanos Vasilakos Penn State University University of Thessaly [email protected] [email protected] Abstract Dancers express their feelings and moods through gestures and body movements. We seek to extend this mode of expression by dynamically and automatically adjusting music and lighting in the dance environment to reflect the dancer’s arousal state. Our intention is to offer a space that performance artists can use as a creative tool that extends the grammar of dance. To enable the dynamic manipulation of lighting and music, the performance space will be augmented with several sensors: physiological sensors worn by a dancer to measure her arousal state, as well as pressure sensors installed in a floor mat to track the dancers’ locations and movements. Data from these sensors will be passed to a three layered architecture. Layer 1 is composed of a sensor analysis system that analyzes and synthesizes physiological and pressure sensor signals. Layer 2 is composed of intelligent systems that adapt lighting and music to portray the dancer’s arousal state. The intelligent on-stage lighting system dynamically adjusts on-stage lighting direction and color. The intelligent virtual lighting system dynamically adapts virtual lighting in the projected imagery. The intelligent music system dynamically and unobtrusively adjusts the music. Layer 3 translates the high-level adjustments made by the intelligent systems in layer 2 to appropriate lighting board, image rendering, and audio box commands. In this paper, we will describe this architecture in detail as well as the equipment and control systems used.

  • Song & Music in the Movement
    Transcript: Song & Music in the Movement A Conversation with Candie Carawan, Charles Cobb, Bettie Mae Fikes, Worth Long, Charles Neblett, and Hollis Watkins, September 19 – 20, 2017. Tuesday, September 19, 2017 Song_2017.09.19_01TASCAM Charlie Cobb: [00:41] So the recorders are on and the levels are okay. Okay. This is a fairly simple process here and informal. What I want to get, as you all know, is conversation about music and the Movement. And what I'm going to do—I'm not giving elaborate introductions. I'm going to go around the table and name who's here for the record, for the recorded record. Beyond that, I will depend on each one of you in your first, in this first round of comments to introduce yourselves however you wish. To the extent that I feel it necessary, I will prod you if I feel you've left something out that I think is important, which is one of the prerogatives of the moderator. [Laughs] Other than that, it's pretty loose going around the table—and this will be the order in which we'll also speak—Chuck Neblett, Hollis Watkins, Worth Long, Candie Carawan, Bettie Mae Fikes. I could say things like, from Carbondale, Illinois and Mississippi and Worth Long: Atlanta. Cobb: Durham, North Carolina. Tennessee and Alabama, I'm not gonna do all of that. You all can give whatever geographical description of yourself within the context of discussing the music. What I do want in this first round is, since all of you are important voices in terms of music and culture in the Movement—to talk about how you made your way to the Freedom Singers and freedom singing.
