April 20Th, CPA Building 9:00 A.M. Recital Room a Workshop To April 20th, CPA building 9:00 a.m. Recital Room A workshop to illuminate the unparalleled possibilities represented by the incorporation of iPads into all disciplines of arts education within the CVPA Barbara WF Miner Head of Studio Department of Art 9 April 2012 1 Q: If David Hockney thinks that iPads are a good artmaking tool-shouldn’t that be enough to convincethe rest of us that they are the best thing since sliced bread? David Hockney drew these images during his stay at Glyndebourne, a 700-year old country house and opera house in East Sussex, England. There he recreated the stage-set for the opera ‘The Rake’s Progress’ by Stravinsky . Looking closely at these drawings one gets a sense of this location. The drawings titled: ‘iPad 6 8 2010’ & ‘iPad 7 8 2010’ were sent as email attachments on 21 August 2010. A: Well no actually. We might need a bit more convincing! Solution: Bring in two gentlemen from the Cleveland Institute of Art to show us just how incredibly useful, groundbreaking, exciting and just plain fun the incorporation of this technology can be in the teaching of ART, ART HISTORY, ART EDUCATION, MUSIC EDUCATION, MUSIC AND THEATRE/FILM! 2 Backstory: Phoebe Ballard and I made a trip to the Cleveland Institute of Art (CIA) on March 2, 2012. We met with professors Scott Ligon* (lead) and Jimmy Kuehnle** who have incorporated the use of iPads into their foundations courses in a project called, “Digital Canvas” (http://blog.cia.edu/digitalcanvas/2011/08/21/welcome/). As our discussion progressed, it became obvious to both Phoebe and me that we really needed to find out even more about the possibilities presented by the use of this technology in our classrooms. Further, we felt that every department within the college could inventively use iPads as a revolutionary way of teaching, connecting with our students, and creating a different classroom experience with our students. We explored the idea of having Scott and Jimmy visit the CVPA and share their enthusiasm and knowledge with the wider arts faculty. They agreed to join us on April 20th. Please attend the presentation AND ASK QUESTIONS like: Who pays for the iPods? How do you write assignments for this gizmo? Why should I (ancient professor of …….) want to learn this new and difficult technology? Is the technology really difficult to embrace?? Etc. etc. *Scott Ligon is the author of Digital Art Revolution, Creating Fine Art with Photoshop. The book was published in March 2010 by Watson-Guptill, a division of Random House, the premiere publisher in books. The book is currently in its second printing and an eBook version is scheduled for release this summer, available for Kindle, Nook, iPad and other eBook formats. He has recently completed his second short film, Figure/Ground about the death of his father. The film is a hybrid of live action and animation. It features veteran actor Allan Kulakow who has been in several movies, including Death by Dawn, Syriana, The Good Shepherd, and HBO’s Something the Lord Made. He appeared as the Joint Chief of Staff on NBC’s West Wing. **Jimmy Kuehnle’s recent work features wearable inflatable suits and public performance treks through rural and urban cities. In order to widen the audience beyond the gallery and to continue his mission of connecting with other people, the performances stride a thin line between spectacle and the absurd with the goal of breaking the public out of its repetitive daily cycle of thought patterns. A recent tour took the artist through Michigan, Illinois, Ohio, Missouri, Kansas and Texas. Kuehnle received an MFA in Sculpture in 2006 from the University of Texas at San Antonio. In 2008 he researched public art and practiced sculpture as a Fulbright Graduate Research Fellow in Japan. In the summer of 2009 he worked in Finland as the resident artist at the Stundars open-air museum. In the fall he served as the Phillip C. Curtis Artist in Residence at Albion College in Albion, Michigan. In May 2010, he exhibited in a survey of international artists in residence at the Fondazione Arnaldo Pomodoro in Milan, Italy. 3 Supplementary information regarding applicability of this technology: (All following information is taken from and readily available on the internet) Art Foundations-Mark Tekushan’s Design class explores color relationships collaboratively, using the camera app and iMovie on the iPad. Each student is assigned a primary color. They go out into the world and photograph a series of images that reflect their color assignment using the iPad. Then they arrange these images into a sequential video using iMovie on the iPad. Students meet in the classroom to rearrange their iPads in various combinations to create unified color design compositions. Diana Chou’s Art History Class went to the Cleveland Museum of Art. With the museums permission they used the iPads to photograph, sketch and, document works in the museum, relating these items to concepts that they studied in class. At the end, they met together in the lobby and immediately shared their work with each other. Professor Chou has found many useful and innovative ways to incorporate the iPads into her classes. iPad art education: not just college anymoreI Pads as educational tools have been used for writing, pattern recognition, language development, and fine motor development in young children… so why not early art education? Two elementary school teachers have stepped up to that challenge with some astounding results. Digital media has seeped into every aspect of our culture and lives. Younger children are becoming proficient in the basics of web navigation, word processing, and email. So why not creativity? Well, two elementary school teachers in Illinois and New Jersey, respectively, have the nerve to ask just that. And the iPad, with its intuitive interface and its ability to take disinfectant wipes like a champ, was their device of choice to explore this concept. iPads and Music-During a performance on NBC's Late Night With Jimmy Fallon show, Squeeze pianist Stephen Large broke into one of the most unlikely piano solos for a band formed in the 70s: he played it on an iPad running Pianist Pro."When I first saw the footage, I was blown away with what an accomplished musician could do with a touchscreen piano," says Mark Terry, the app's developer. "There's no greater thrill for the creator of a musical instrument than to hear it being used by a skilled musician." 4 Using the iPad in Music Education-March 9, 2012 by John Kuzmich, Jr. Apple’s iPad is changing the music education landscape. I became a believer after attending the January JEN and TI:ME conventions in Louisville, Kentucky. There were iPad users everywhere I looked. The iPad has expanded instruction opportunities through their platform structure, significantly engaging and motivating students to extraordinary levels of instruction. And with Apple TV and AirPlay, one can teach anywhere in the classroom with complete portability and wireless connectivity that rivals the popular Smartboards, with less than half of the cost. iPad use for Theatre- In Praise of the iPad (not a sponsored commercial) Posted By Daniel A. Kelin II, AATE President, Sunday, January 22, 2012 “This year I used the iPad to videotape their rehearsals. Having the students be able to immediately see their work, reflect on it and review it to confirm what choices needed to be strengthened proved to be the most effective performance-based reflect tool I have used with these students. Although previous students were aware of the importance and need of such skills as volume, they struggled with recognizing their true effect. Listening and comparing themselves to others worked for some, but others were convinced of their own effectiveness because they could only see it from their own vantage point. In other words, they were their own audience and that audience felt satisfied. The results of the iPad were almost immediate. Comparing this year to previous years at this school, the students quickly and efficiently became more cognizant of simple skills such as placement on the stage, volume, pacing, and clarity of gesture. In addition, their ability to self-reflect grew. The evidence presented was irrefutable. They heard and saw themselves from the vantage point of the audience and now they could truly experience the perspective needed to help them improve on their own.” iPad use for Film- 5 Go to this website: Create World Presentation: iPad Apps for Film Production & Film Education http://issuu.com/qcagriffith/docs/create_world_luke_monsour Please feel free to contact me with any questions you may have.

Schreiber High School Wednesday, September 30, 1987 ZANETTI TAKES CHARGE Board Names Guidance Head as Acting Principal by Dave Weintraub When Dr. Frank Banta, Schreiber's principal for eight years, departed at the end (rf the last school year for a different job, he left some large shoes to fill. The school board and Superintendent Dr. William Heebink set out on a search for a new principal over the summer. Many applicants were reviewed, but no one was picked. The board and Dr. Heebink decided to extend the search through the 1987-88 school year. To fill the void Dr. Banta had left, they asked John Zanetti, Chairman of the Guidance Department, to serve as acting principal. He accepted, and was given a ten-month contract, which began in September. Most people who know Mr. Zanetti know him as a soft- spoken and amiable man. He has been in the Port Washington school system for many years, and he had humble beginnings. He started work at Salem School as a physical education teacher in 1958. He stayed there for six years and during that time in- troduced wrestling and lacrosse to the high school. He became the first coach of those teams. After Salem, he taught physical educa- tion at Schreiber for two years. He became a guidance counselor in 1967. He was appointed guidance chairman in 1980. He has now moved to the top of Schreiber's administrative lad- der. Has his transition been smooth? "I have an ulcer," he jokes. "Actually, I think I've ad- justed better than I thought I would.

  • Glenn Tilbrook 2013
    GLENN TILBROOK Mention Glenn Tilbrook and most people may immediately think of Squeeze. After all, with his writing partner Chris Difford, Tilbrook was responsible for Top Ten hits all around the world such as “Tempted”, “Hourglass”, “Cool For Cats” and “Up The Junction”. Ever since their first EP in 1977, Squeeze has delighted audiences with their brand of honky-tonk new wave and pithy lyricism, while their stock in the music world has seen the likes of Jools Hol- land, Paul Carrack and Elvis Costello all contribute to their work. However, since an acrimonious split in 1998 Squeeze has been on the backburner. Although you might forgive him for resting on his laurels after 13 albums and countless tours all over the world, Tilbrook has continued to write and perform with the same enthusiasm that he brought to Squeeze’s earliest recordings. With his two solo albums, “The Incomplete Glenn Tilbrook” and “Transatlantic Ping-Pong”, he proved he’s lost none of the joie-de-vivre that became Squeeze’s trademark. For 2009’s album “Pandemonium Ensues”, he injected some fresh faces by recruiting new band The Fluffers and some prestigious guests in the shape of Johnny Depp and Vanessa Paradis. This has been complemented by a conversational live show that is delightfully shambling in its approach – Tilbrook loves blurring the bound- ary between crowd and performer by performing requests and even taking his audience for walkabouts to set up impromptu gigs! Although a Squeeze reunion had always looked unlikely, Tilbrook and Difford’s paths slowly began to cross with more frequency, leading to a series of low-key gigs together in 2007.

  • 092321 Squeeze Press Release
    SQUEEZE: THE NOMADBAND TOUR COMES TO THE FLORIDA THEATRE ON THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 23, 2021 Jacksonville, Fla. (June 15, 2021) – The Florida Theatre is pleased to announce Squeeze: The Nomadband Tour on Thursday, September 23, 2021 at 8:00 p.m. Squeeze first formed in 1973, shortly after Chris Difford and Glenn Tilbrook had begun their songwriting partnership, brought together by an ad in a sweetshop window. By 1977 they had made their recording debut and enjoyed a string of hits which lasted until 1982, the maturity of their songs outliving their initial burst of chart activity on the back of New Wave. Over the years there have been solo careers and occasional separations, but the Ivor Novello Award -winning songwriting duo Chris and Glenn reunited ten years ago to relaunch Squeeze and have been touring, writing and recording together since. 2015 saw the release of the critically acclaimed Cradle to the Grave which was written as a soundtrack to Danny Baker’s BBC TV sitcom Cradle To Grave (starring Peter Kay). This album marked the complete and, frankly, triumphant reintegration of the masterful songwriting axis of Chris Difford and Glenn Tilbrook, in a beautifully-observed series of fond vignettes about childhood, growing up and the absurdities of the ride through life we’re all on. The band has long been a captivating live act, and in 2016 they triumphed on the Pyramid Stage at Glastonbury with The Guardian saying they “ [went] down a storm… Squeeze’s success is a pretty infectious thing” and Acoustic magazine concluding that “ they don’t have the bombastic hype of headliners Coldplay, but they have the songcraft and lyrical majesty to leave the headliners in the dust which they duly did.” The band also hit the headlines around the world in 2016 when appearing on the BBC’s current affairs show The Andrew Marr Show alongside fellow guest former Prime Minister David Cameron.

  • Squeeze Biog for Approval
    It’s 1973 in South London. Teenage friends Chris Difford and Glenn Tilbrook form the band that will see them dubbed ‘The New Lennon and McCartney’. Over 35 years later, with their legacy intact and as vital as it has ever been, Squeeze are still touring and reminding fans worldwide just why they have left such an indelible impression on the UK’s music scene. As teenagers on the South London scene, Squeeze – setting out their stall early on by facetiously naming themselves after a poorly-received Velvet Underground album, and at the time also comprised of Jools Holland on keys, Harry Kakouli on bass and Paul Gunn on drums - became a fixture of the burgeoning New Wave movement. When Gilson Lavis replaced Gunn on drums everything seemed to fall into place, and word of mouth soon spread about the band - ironically, it was none other than Velvet Underground man John Cale who caught wind in 1977 and offered to produce their debut EP ‘Packet Of Three’ and much of the ensuing album. Yet it was second album ‘Cool For Cats’, released in 1979, which cemented their place as one of Britain’s most important young bands. Featuring the classic single ‘Up The Junction’ as well as the title track, it was many listeners’ first introduction to the witty kitchen-sink lyricism and new-wave guitar music that has become the band’s trademark. With albums ‘Argybargy’ and the Elvis Costello- produced ‘East Side Story’, Squeeze even started to make waves across the pond, although in 1980 former Roxy Music and Ace - and future Mike + The Mechanics – man Paul Carrack would replace Jools Holland, going on to lend his unmistakeable vocals to the smash hit ‘Tempted’.

  • Squeeze Biog Sep 2015
    SQUEEZE BIOGRAPHY, SEPTEMBER 2015 Long before you finish your first listen to the new Squeeze album ‘Cradle To The Grave,’ you realise that no one has ever come close to taking their place. For the admirers beyond number who’ve been willing their return, the release date of the band’s first record of new songs in 17 years should be a national holiday. ‘Cradle To The Grave’ is the sound of Squeeze going backwards to go forwards. It marks the complete and, frankly, triumphant reintegration of the masterful songwriting axis of Chris Difford and Glenn Tilbrook, in a beautifully-observed series of fond vignettes about childhood, growing up and the absurdities of the ride through life we’re all on. Squeeze’s 14th studio album was produced with old comrade Laurie Latham, in a refreshed band line-up that now features Stephen Large on keyboards, Simon Hanson on drums and Lucy Shaw on bass, all three of them from Tilbrook’s own band on his solo albums and tours, the Fluffers. Early Squeeze bassist John Bentley also played on the first half of the recordings. A collection of fresh Difford & Tilbrook copyrights to stand tall among the anthems they’ve lodged in the public consciousness since the late 1970s, the first new Squeeze album since 1998’s ‘Domino’ is joyous news enough. But it’s also receiving a brilliantly appropriate introduction, with songs from the record featuring prominently in ‘Cradle To Grave,’ the new BBC2 comedy drama based on Danny Baker’s memoirs and starring Peter Kay. After a hiatus in which they pursued solo projects to great acclaim, Difford & Tilbrook started performing shows and writing new material together some years ago.
