  • I AM BRIAN WILSON Brian Wilson October 11Th, 2016
    I AM BRIAN WILSON Brian Wilson October 11th, 2016 OVERVIEW: As a cofounding member of The Beach Boys in the 1960s, Brian Wilson created some of the most groundbreaking and timeless music ever recorded. Derailed in the 1970s by mental illness, excessive drug use, and the shifting fortunes of the band’s popularity, Wilson came back again and again over the next few decades, surviving and ultimately thriving. In his memoir entitled I Am Brian Wilson, he details the exhilarating highs and lows of his life from his failing memory, including the sources of his creative inspiration throughout the decades. - - - - - - - - - EARLY LIFE: Brian Wilson was born on June 20th, 1942 to Audree and Murry Wilson. Growing up in Hawthorne, California, Wilson exhibited unusual musical abilities, such as being able to hum the melody from When the Caissons Go Rolling Along after only a few verses had been sung by his father before the age of one. Surprisingly, a few years later, he was discovered to have diminished hearing in his right ear. The exact cause of this hearing loss is unclear, though theories range from him simply being born partially deaf to a blow to the head from his father, or a neighborhood bully, being to blame. While Wilson’s father was a reasonable provider, he was often abusive. A minor musician and songwriter, he also encouraged his children in this field in numerous ways. At an early age, Brian was given six weeks of lessons on a toy accordion and, at seven and eight, sang solos in church with a choir.

  • Good Vibrations (Part 1 of 2): [Adapted from NASA’S Museum in a Box]
    National Aeronautics and Space Administration Good Vibrations (Part 1 of 2): [Adapted from NASA’s Museum in a Box] What is it? The transfer of energy from one material to another can be measured in different ways. One that you may not initially think of is sound. Sound can be good, as it allows us to communicate and interact with our surroundings, but sound can also cause disturbance. For example, aircraft noise can be quite loud and cause disturbance in neighborhoods. Scientists and engineers are working hard to reduce these sounds in different ways. In this activity, students will interact with tuning forks to learn about sound. This activity discusses topics related to National Science Education Standards: 4-PS4-3: Generate and compare multiple solutions that use patterns to transfer information. - This activity uses two different models to “see” sound waves, and covers discussions of the transfer of information from one material to another through waves. Materials (per team of 4 to 8 students): Equipment, provided by NASA: - Set of 4 Tuning Forks - Ping pong ball with attached string Equipment, not provided by NASA: - Container of Water (plastic food storage container would work well) - Soft item for activating tuning forks (book spine works well) Materials (per student): Printables: - Tuning Fork Worksheet Artifact included in this kit: - Fluid Mechanics Lab “Dimple Car” and Information Sheet Recommended Speakers from Ames: Please note that our Speakers Bureau program is voluntary and we cannot guarantee the availability of any speaker. To request a speaker, please visit http://speakers.grc.nasa.gov. www.nasa.gov 1 Dean Kontinos (Hypervelocity Air and Space Vehicles) Ernie Fretter (Arc-Jet, Re-entry Materials) Mark Mallinson (Space, Satellites, Moon, Shuttle Technology) Set-Up Recommendations: - Prepare copies of the Tuning Fork Worksheet.

    Lord, We Whom You Love Are Ill - Sermon - Page 1 of 5 Lord, We Whom You Love Are Ill March 29, 2020 Audio Worship at Calvary UMC John 11:28-37 WELCOME Peace be with you! Welcome to this beautiful worship experience where we connect more deeply, in our hearts with the Holy Spirit dancing amidst us. St. Francis of Assisi said Christ is “the one whose center is everywhere and whose circumference is nowhere.” Though we cannot see one another, God is with us, moving and working and restoring us with abounding grace. Even at home we can respond with a resounding “Amen! Amen!” Let us gather using a tradition practiced at Na Sonje in Haiti. It focuses our bodies and spirits to share all things, to share love, healing, good vibrations, and peace. Simply hold the palm of your right hand so it faces down and the palm of your left hand so it faces up. The palm of your right hand, facing down, is held with a giving Spirit, and the palm of your left hand is up with a receiving Spirit. One hand giving and the other hand receiving… All together, breathe deeply; breathe in all of the positive energy. All together, breathe out; breathe out love, healing, and peace to the world. Breathe deeply again…and again…Amen! Amen! PRAYER With our bodies and spirits centered in the Eternal One, let us pray: From everlasting to everlasting, O Lord, we declare your glory! Though we are a people in exile, we forever seek you. Your Spirit, the wind hovering over the dark chaos, collects us and draws us into the Light of your restoration.

The sheet metal apprentice who crafted a sound for summer and never got the respect he deserved because his cousin Brian perfectly fit the fake hippy media's idea of a "tormented genius. Brian is, maybe properly, kind of a spectral presence throughout: Mike doesn't seem to have access to his thoughts at all, even in the early phases of the book where much is made about their powerful friendship. Vanity Fair. Sort order. It was hard enough to match the Beatles, but now he had to keep up with Mozart? Brian Wilson a mental mess. Thumbs up! Love would decline the offers to take drugs supplied by the hangers on and turned to Transcendental Meditation instead, studying with the Maharishi Mahesh Yogi in Of course, that was nothing new for Love, who has been branded, mainly by fans of Brian Wilson , as one of the biggest jerks in music, largely for his treatment of Wilson more on that in a bit. Nov 06, Wesley Britton rated it it was amazing. He always comes across as the least evil of the bunch. Sarah Rodman. Welcome back. I give it two stars because I did learn about the beginnings of the band which was interesting. Still, this is must reading for Beach Boys fans, and it works especially well as a complement and corrective for Brian Wilson's recent book, I Am Brian Wilson.

  • 1 Music 262: Rock Music, History and Social Analysis, Beach Boys
    Music 262: Rock Music, History and Social Analysis, Beach Boys [Music Playing on Piano] [Brian Ward]: So we have this group from America that comes out of surf rock and they also borrow from some jazz vocal traditions and they really are America’s answer to The Beatles. Because they came around at the same time The Beatles hit the market. Both of these groups are symbiotic. They have this sympathetic relationship. They feed off of each other and they compete with each other, The Beatles and The Beach Boys. The result of that is all this great music. Let’s talk about The Beach Boys for a minute. It’s really a family affair. We have these brothers: Brian Wilson, Carl Wilson, Dennis Wilson. They have their cousin, Mike Love and their neighbor Alan Jardine who plays drums. Their songs are about the beach, paradise, cars, hot rods, California girls. So there’s this theme of California in all of their music and this lifestyle and that’s where they’re from. Their music is a combination of this jazz group called The Four Freshmen. It was a jazz vocal group that sang in really close four part harmony. Brian Wilson just loved this group and he pattern The Beach Boys’ vocal harmonies after this jazz group called The Four Freshmen. Another big part of their music is this surf style that was around them as they were developing as a band. So they adopted this surf style of rock n’ roll, of guitar driven instrumental rock. So you combine these two things, these beautiful four part harmonies with the surf rock and you get The Beach Boys.

  • Analysing Music Analysing Music Is All About Using Techniques and Tools to Gain Insight Into a Piece of Music Or a Musical Practice
    Analysing Music Analysing music is all about using techniques and tools to gain insight into a piece of music or a musical practice. There are huge variety of approaches to analysing music, and each method reveals/emphasizes certain aspects and doesn’t show others. In analysis, it is more helpful to think about what analyses are useful/less useful, rather there being one ‘correct’ answer. Here are just some of the techniques and approaches to analysing music, some of which may be unfamiliar to you. We can apply them to the same music, to illustrate how each approach tell us something different. Pet Sounds is a 1966 album by the Beach Boys. Group member Brian Wilson wrote the music, with lyrics by Tony Asher. The record is notable for its experimental production and unconventional musical practices. It’s a rich example for musical analysis, and particularly the song ‘God Only Knows’. Motivic/thematic This approach examines how Though Pet Sounds doesn’t use directly-repeated melodies analysis musical fragments are repeated and between songs, the whole album has a sense of musical unity by changed across a piece or set of emphasizing arch-shaped melodies in the treble, and stepwise pieces, and the effect of such descending bass parts. Listen out for them. The shapes are processes. particularly noticeable in the doo-wop vocals in ‘God Only Knows’. Harmonic Examining the underlying harmony ‘God Only Knows’ keeps the listener guessing because it seems analysis of music is particularly helpful for to be in two keys at once (E major and A major): the verse seems understanding how a sense of to centre on E, the chorus on A.

  • Good Vibrations, Polk Street
    CITY AND COUNTY OF SAN FRANCISCO EDWIN M. LEE, MAYOR OFFICE OF SMALL BUSINESS REGINA DICK-ENDRIZZI, DIRECTOR Legacy Business Registry Staff Report HEARING DATE JANUARY 9, 2017 GOOD VIBRATIONS Application No.: LBR-2016-17-041 Business Name: Good Vibrations Business Address: 603 Valencia Street District: District 9 Applicant: Jackie Rednour-Bruckman, Executive Vice President Nomination Date: November 7, 2016 Nominated By: Supervisor David Campos Staff Contact: Richard Kurylo [email protected] BUSINESS DESCRIPTION Good Vibrations is an innovative sex-positive retailer that promotes sexual health and safe sex for people of all genders and sexual orientations. It was founded in San Francisco’s Mission District in 1977 by Joani Blank, a licensed family and marriage therapist who, in 1975, founded a sex education publishing press called Down There Press after finding that many of her clients lacked access to information about sexual arousal and positive perceptions of sex and the body. Blank developed an idea for a retail store that would provide a safe, warm, and welcoming place for women and others to buy products and books and obtain information regarding sexual health and education. The business is credited with inventing the concept of an open, non-judgmental and well-lit welcoming and safe environment where patrons could shop for products such as toys, books, and movies and also attend workshops. In the 1990s, Good Vibrations brought on sexologist Dr. Carol Queen to help with the promotion and distribution of information surrounding sexual health and education. Since its inception, the business has continuously been involved in and partnered with various citywide organizations and events that promote equality and education surrounding sexual health, identity, and sexual positivity.
