    The Academy Award Nominations Are Out and the Winner Is.....Digital Artistry February 24, 2014 Autodesk Software Plays an Integral Role in the Creation of Great Movies – Including 8 of the 9 Best Picture Nominees SAN FRANCISCO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Feb. 24, 2014-- Great movies are defined by great stories and increasingly, great storytelling is being empowered by digital technology. Autodesk, Inc. (NASDAQ:ADSK) media and entertainment staff and software played a starring role in the creation of many of this year’s Academy Award nominees across many categories and were recognized by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences with two Scientific and Technical Achievement Awards (Sci-Tech Awards). “This year has been especially gratifying. Not only is it the 19th consecutive year Autodesk software has enabled Academy nominated filmmakers to push the boundaries of what is possible by enabling them to tell stories that just would not be possible practically – whether it’s creating the weightlessness of outer-space or the ice-locked beauty of a frozen world,” explains Chris Bradshaw, Autodesk senior vice president. “But Autodesk staff were also recognized by the Academy for two of the technologies they developed, and were instrumental in helping Mark Gill bring ‘The Voorman Problem,’ to the big screen. We are delighted to be such an integral part of innovative filmmaking.” Scientific and Technical Achievement Awards Every year, the Academy hosts a special awards ceremony two weeks before the Oscar ceremony to recognize the “discoveries and

  • Organs: Technology and Technique for LDS Organists
    Understanding and Mastering Pipe (and Electric) Organs: Technology and Technique for LDS Organists by Irvin T. Nelson Copyright 2001, 2006, 2009 by Irvin T. Nelson 225 N. 100 E., Smithfield, UT 84335 Making unaltered copies for non-commercial use is permitted. All other rights reserved. This and other materials may be downloaded free at: www.irvnelsonmusic.com Draft 2.1; January 1, 2009 Preface The pipe organ is the fundamental musical instrument of the Church. No other instrument can even begin to match its utility and power for accompanying the Hymns of the Restoration. A well-played organ enables and assists the Spirit in touching the hearts of the Saints. There is a shortage of qualified, trained organists in the Church, and this scarcity appears to be growing. Nearly all LDS chapels have organs, many of which are of reasonably good quality, and a precious few of which are real pipe organs. However, in many wards, there are few or no qualified organists who have been trained to get the most out of these marvelous instruments. It is a tragic waste when a very expensive pipe organ is underutilized simply because the organist doesn’t know what the buttons, levers, and knobs do, and how to get a good sound for a particular hymn. Similarly, the electric organ, which is a fine instrument in its own right, is often underutilized for the same reason. This manuscript is written for pianists who want to learn the organ. Without information and training, even excellent pianists are sometimes poor organists. This is not due to a lack of talent, but simply because of the following three factors: 1.

Historians know Boston as the birthplace of the American Revolution. Over 250,000 college students find it a cool place to live and learn. Tourists like Boston for its European ambiance. Classical musicians love it for its thriving choral, orchestral, opera and early music scenes. Organists know Boston as Mecca: the backyard of Hook, Hastings and Hutchings, home turf for Skinner and Harrison, and the big town for Fisk, Andover and Noack. New and restored instruments abound, and not just from the local guys: Schoenstein, Richards Fowkes and Juget-Sinclair are represented here. In turn, these organs occupy some of America’s finest buildings—from the restrained neo-Classicism of Asher Benjamin’s Old West Church and Charles McKim’s Symphony Hall, to the exuberant Victorianism of John Sturgis’s Church of the Advent and Willard Sears’ “New” Old South Church, or the one-of-a-kind genius of H.H. Richardson’s Trinity Church. Past, present and future combine as one here. We invite you to experience all of this in Boston. Sincerely, AIO 2016 Boston Committee Jonathan Ambrosino, William Catanesye, William Czelusniak, Michael Foley, Andrew Gingery, Jonathan Ortloff and Matthew Bellocchio, Chair 3 2016 Convention Information Hotel Parking e outdoor parking lot is at the far end of the hotel.
