  • “Until That Song Is Born”: an Ethnographic Investigation of Teaching and Learning Among Collaborative Songwriters in Nashville
    “UNTIL THAT SONG IS BORN”: AN ETHNOGRAPHIC INVESTIGATION OF TEACHING AND LEARNING AMONG COLLABORATIVE SONGWRITERS IN NASHVILLE By Stuart Chapman Hill A DISSERTATION Submitted to Michigan State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Music Education—Doctor of Philosophy 2016 ABSTRACT “UNTIL THAT SONG IS BORN”: AN ETHNOGRAPHIC INVESTIGATION OF TEACHING AND LEARNING AMONG COLLABORATIVE SONGWRITERS IN NASHVILLE By Stuart Chapman Hill With the intent of informing the practice of music educators who teach songwriting in K– 12 and college/university classrooms, the purpose of this research is to examine how professional songwriters in Nashville, Tennessee—one of songwriting’s professional “hubs”—teach and learn from one another in the process of engaging in collaborative songwriting. This study viewed songwriting as a form of “situated learning” (Lave & Wenger, 1991) and “situated practice” (Folkestad, 2012) whose investigation requires consideration of the professional culture that surrounds creative activity in a specific context (i.e., Nashville). The following research questions guided this study: (1) How do collaborative songwriters describe the process of being inducted to, and learning within, the practice of professional songwriting in Nashville, (2) What teaching and learning behaviors can be identified in the collaborative songwriting processes of Nashville songwriters, and (3) Who are the important actors in the process of learning to be a collaborative songwriter in Nashville, and what roles do they play (e.g., gatekeeper, mentor, role model)? This study combined elements of case study and ethnography. Data sources included observation of co-writing sessions, interviews with songwriters, and participation in and observation of open mic and writers’ nights.

  • Bradley Immel's Music Production Tips, Best Practices, & More
    Bradley Immel’s Music Production Tips, Best Practices, & More Most Applicable in Logic Pro X Last Updated: 11 // 18 // 2020 This document is intended to be a collection of tips and tricks that I have picked up over the years. These suggestions are in no way rules or restrictions - always trust your ear, and always explore! Anything stated here may be a bad habit/idea - it’s what I’ve landed upon, but I’m sure it will change. Please share this with anyone who may get some use out of it (: Please offer your own tips, feedback, etc. and I will try it out and hopefully include it here! General Vocab Reverb : the difference between singing in your closet vs. singing in a church or a stairwell. That ​ shimmery-ringing-but-not-quite-an-echo is reverb - the sound of sound bouncing off the walls and making it back to your ear. A reverb is the mark of a space. ​ ​ Bounce : to take a track, audio file, section of a project, or entire project and compile it into a single ​ audio file. It will include the sound of all plugins, panning, automation, etc. (unless you specifically bypass them). Used for exporting audio, turning MIDI into audio (good for sharing a Logic project in which you used non-Logic MIDI samples with someone else), and general project utility. Gain : confusing - lots of semantics around it. A measure of loudness/volume. Generally refers to the ​ input level. For example, if you are recording a track, you set your gain as the amount of signal to let in (to your computer/interface/compressor unit/whatever) and set your volume as the amount of signal to send out (through your speakers/headphones).

  • Chaos Walking: the Knife of Never Letting Go
    CHAOS WALKING The Knife of Never Letting Go Screenplay by Charlie Kaufman Based on the novel by Patrick Ness First Draft (Producer's Pass 2) DecemberCASTING 9, 2012 Note: Noise, which is the thoughts, memories, fantasies, dreams, and anxieties of men and animals, is constant in this world. There is no escape from it for anyone. It is seen and heard at every moment, even though it sometimes recedes into the background in the same way one’s own thoughts and worries sometimes do. The only exception to the Noise is when the script explicitly indicates silence. VIEW FROM THE STRATOSPHERE Silent and beautiful. An Earth-like planet orbited by two moons. Slowly, we drift in toward its glinting blue water and lush green land. A slight camera shift reveals our view is through a porthole. On the wall next to the porthole is a child’s sticker of a giraffe. BLACK. EXT. COUNTRY DIRT ROAD - DAY The sky is dark with storm clouds. Todd, 13, in threadbare work clothes, walks along a dirt road bisected by acres of farmland. He’s followed by Manchee, a scruffy little dog. Sad farmhouses squat in the distance. There is an almost imperceptible mumbling of voices in the background. TODD (V.O.) I am Todd Hewitt. I am twelve years and twelve months old. I talk to myself just about all the time, mostly to keep track of which one is me in all this Goddamn Noise. I am Todd Hewitt and I ain’t never gonna have a girlfriend, which is the one thing my fool brain keeps telling me it needs.

The major question in this collection is whether the sacred and secular are discernible. The majority of these poems are lyrical in that even the narrative poems work to arouse emotion as a means to invoking new realities in the reader. Vigilant attention is paid to language, therefore the multivalent nature of this lyric collection allows for multiple interpretations rather than for obscurity or incoherence. Manufacturing of poetry is done through line breaking, experimental technique, diction, figurative language and other imagery and ideas, and in other ways traditionally accepted to be methods of construction in poetry. This collection fully subscribes to the worth of reader response as a way to divining meaning from the text. Part of the text may be considered semi-autobiographical but its intent should not be characterized as confessional if not used in the loosest sense of the style---its use of an "I" speaker.

You watched the stylish yachts and ships; one of them had a long trip ahead of it, while salty oblivion awaited others. You’ve seen the refugees heading nowhere, you’ve heard the executioners sing joyfully. You should praise the mutilated world.

  • THE COLLECTED POEMS of HENRIK IBSEN Translated by John Northam
    1 THE COLLECTED POEMS OF HENRIK IBSEN Translated by John Northam 2 PREFACE With the exception of a relatively small number of pieces, Ibsen’s copious output as a poet has been little regarded, even in Norway. The English-reading public has been denied access to the whole corpus. That is regrettable, because in it can be traced interesting developments, in style, material and ideas related to the later prose works, and there are several poems, witty, moving, thought provoking, that are attractive in their own right. The earliest poems, written in Grimstad, where Ibsen worked as an assistant to the local apothecary, are what one would expect of a novice. Resignation, Doubt and Hope, Moonlight Voyage on the Sea are, as their titles suggest, exercises in the conventional, introverted melancholy of the unrecognised young poet. Moonlight Mood, To the Star express a yearning for the typically ethereal, unattainable beloved. In The Giant Oak and To Hungary Ibsen exhorts Norway and Hungary to resist the actual and immediate threat of Prussian aggression, but does so in the entirely conventional imagery of the heroic Viking past. From early on, however, signs begin to appear of a more personal and immediate engagement with real life. There is, for instance, a telling juxtaposition of two poems, each of them inspired by a female visitation. It is Over is undeviatingly an exercise in romantic glamour: the poet, wandering by moonlight mid the ruins of a great palace, is visited by the wraith of the noble lady once its occupant; whereupon the ruins are restored to their old splendour.

  • The Blessing of Letting Go
    The Blessing of Letting Go ◼ A Psalm of David Answer me when I call to you, O God who declares me innocent. Free me from my troubles. Have mercy on me and hear my prayer. 2How long will you people ruin my reputation? How long will you make groundless accusations? How long will you continue your lies? 3You can be sure of this: The Lord set apart the godly for himself. The Lord will answer when I call to him. 4Don’t sin by letting anger control you. Think about it overnight and remain silent. 5Offer sacrifices in the right spirit, and trust the Lord. 6Many people say, “Who will show us better times?” Let your face smile on us, Lord. 7You have given me greater joy than those who have abundant harvests of grain and new wine. 8In peace I will lie down and sleep, for you alone, O Lord, will keep me safe. Psalm 4 New Living Translation An Effective Trap In central Africa a tribe of hunters came up with a clever plan for cap- turing the local monkeys, which lived high up in the soaring trees and were very fast and difficult to catch, to shoot with an arrow, or to spear with even the sleekest of spears. The monkeys were delicacies to the local taste buds, though, and were highly valued—so there was great incentive in outwitting and catching them. The hunters devel- oped a clever scheme. They took a hollowed-out coconut, filled it with morsels of pungent and sweet-smelling food that the monkeys loved best, set the treat-loaded coconut on the ground, tied a vine around it and attached it to a nearby tree.
