Onwisconsin Spring 2017 FOR UNIVERSITY OF WISCONSIN–MADISON ALUMNI AND FRIENDS SPRING 2017 Call of Duty The UW enlisted in World War I. Page 22 Vision “Inside College Basketball’s Most Political Lock- er Room” was the New York Times headline for a fall story that featured Badgers Nigel Hayes, Jordan Hill, and Bronson Koenig. In September, Koenig joined protests against construction of the Dakota Access Pipeline. Days before the article, Hayes and Hill stood one step behind their teammates during the national anthem to protest inequities that African Americans face, an action they repeated during the season.

  • The Smart Studios Story Screens at the Greenwich Odeum on November 11
    The Smart Studios Story Screens at The Greenwich Odeum on November 11 When you delve into music history, you’ll find that a majority of the most important and influential music ever created was only recorded at a few places. Places like Sun Studio in Memphis, Electrical Audio in Chicago, Electric Lady Studios in New York City and FAME Studios in Muscle Shoals, Alabama, are sacred ground. It’s where landmark albums came to be, legendary musicians stepped foot and brilliance shined. Another place was Smart Studios in Madison, Wisconsin, owned by acclaimed producers Butch Vig and Steve Marker who are also part of the alternative rock act Garbage. At the Greenwich Odeum in East Greenwich on Friday, November 11, there will be a screening of the documentary on the recording studio titled The Smart Studios Story. Parts of Nirvana’s masterpiece Nevermind, The Smashing Pumpkins’ debut Gish, The Con by Teagan and Sara, L7’s Bricks Are Heavy and a plethora of spectacular albums were recorded and produced at Smart Studios. It was a place for independent and underground rock acts to get recordings made from the studio’s infancy in the ‘80s right up to its closing in 2010. The documentary, directed by Wendy Schneider, examines the studio’s existence and origin. The film also features interviews with Vig, Marker, Laura Jane Grace from Against Me!, Dave Grohl from Nirvana and the Foo Fighters, Garbage frontwoman Shirley Manson, Jimmy Chamberlin and Billy Corgan from The Smashing Pumpkins and many others. It promises to provide an in-depth look at an historic space located within a building mistaken for being a crack house in the place known as Mad City.

  • Organic Grain Production Research and Best Practices
    Organic Grain Production Research and Best Practices Joel Gruver – [email protected] What is organic agriculture??? Why didn’t Dr. Hopkins recommend K fertilizer? Franklin Hiram King (1848-1911) FH King , Professor of Soil Physics at UW was dismayed by the rapid degradation of Midwest soils during the 19th century and traveled to Asia looking for answers. “ We desired to learn how it is Farmers of 40 Centuries: possible, after twenty and Permanent Agriculture in perhaps thirty or even forty China, Korea and Japan centuries, for their soils to be was the original title. made to produce sufficiently for the maintenance of such dense populations.. “ Farmers of Forty Centuries, 1911 JR Smith was a pioneer in the field of economic geography, an author of many popular elementary First edition school – college in 1929 level geography text books and a dedicated conservationist and agro-forester. In An Agricultural Testament (1940) Howard laid out his vision for agriculture based on nature as a model with great emphasis on a concept that is central to organic farming--the importance of utilizing organic waste materials to build soil organic matter and maintain soil fertility. An Agricultural Testament by Sir Albert Howard Chapter 1 Introduction THE maintenance of the fertility of the soil is the first condition of any permanent system of agriculture. In the ordinary processes of crop production fertility is steadily lost: its continuous restoration by means of manuring and soil management is therefore imperative. In 1940, Northbourne introduced his concept of the ideal farm as an ORGANIC whole (i.e. having a complex interrelationship of parts/organs, similar to that in living things) in a book titled, Look to the Land.

  • Behind the Music
    Q&A BEHIND THE MUSIC It’s crazy to think that this year marks the 20th Anniversary of Kurt Cobain’s passing – a true game-changer in our industry, and a man who, in many ways, revolutionised music, inadvertently spawning a whole new scene. Nevermind is a seminal record, and its success was the catalyst for record labels’ mission impossible, the search for ‘the next Nirvana’. Although he might not have known it at the time, those 16 days recording Nevermind would change Butch Vig’s career forever. It paved the way for a remarkable musical journey, the production of a string of hit records for supergroups such as The Smashing Pumpkins, The Foo Fighters, and many more... Not to mention Garbage, Vig’s own band, which has enjoyed more than 17 million record sales over the last two decades. This legend of the game reveals some of his trade secrets, and shares some fond, unforgettable memories... Your career speaks for itself, but first up, how did it all begin for you? Well, I played in bands in high school in a small town in Wisconsin, and then I went to University in Madison. I started getting into the local music scene, and joined a band, which was sort of a power pop, new wave band called Spooner; and Duke [Erikson] from Garbage was the guitarist and lead singer at the time. I also got a degree in film, and ended up doing a lot of music for film; a lot of synth, and abstract music, and that’s where I kind of got the recording bug.

  • Sterling Hall Bombing Podcast Script: Draft Announcer/Troy: UW
    Sterling Hall Bombing Podcast Script: Draft Announcer/Troy: UW—Madison’s Campus Voices’ mission is to capture, present, and preserve some of the strongest historical stories and memories of UW—Madison, through the people who lived them. Campus Voices, a project of the UW—Madison Archives & Records Management Services, consists of presenting extant archival material in 21st century publishable formats, such as a podcast, mini-movie, and iTunes album. Intro: This is the second podcast in the UW—Madison Campus Voices series; I’m Troy Reeves, head of the oral history program at the UW—Madison Archives and Records Management Services and today’s host. This podcast was created to mark the 40th anniversary of the Sterling Hall bombing, which took place at 3:42am on August 24th, 1970. The bombing has become one of the more infamous events that took place on U.S. soil during our country’s involvement in Vietnam and stood as the largest act of domestic terrorism until 1995 and the bombing in Oklahoma City. Last month, we—along with the Wisconsin Story Project—co-sponsored the Project’s Story Booth inside UW—Madison’s Memorial Library. The booth has a video camera to capture stories and memories of people on a variety of subjects; for our purposes we used it to get folks to talk about the Sterling Hall Bombing. While that material will not be available for public consumption for awhile, I can say something about it. As a non-Madisonian I have learned about Sterling Hall from the published material. While those books and documentaries tell the capital S Story well, it was great to hear all the little s stories left by the people who stepped into the booth.
