    UBC High Notes

    UBC High Notes Fall 2011 Newsletter of the School Music at the University of British Columbia Director’s Welcome Welcome to the thirteenth edition of High Notes, our annual chronicle of the recent activities and major achievements of faculty, students, and alumni of the UBC School of Music. The variety, quality, and international impact of these contributions to scholarship and public life are inspiring and impressive, and each year brings a stream of new work and echoing accolades. After our exciting “year of renewal” in 2010/2011, we are now taking full advantage of our revitalized facilities. The handsomely renovated Roy Barnett Recital Hall is acoustically brilliant and well equipped, and is the heart of our teaching and performing activities every day. The beautiful and historic Old Auditorium has been thoroughly modernized as a teaching, rehearsal, and performance space perfect for classical opera, and also for concerts, recitals, and other events. The splendid Chan Centre, with its contemporary design and acoustic radiance, is home for our Symphony Orchestra, Symphonic Wind Ensemble, Concert Winds, University Singers, and Choral Union, plus one fully staged opera each season by the UBC Opera Ensemble. The Chan Centre also features its own programming and numerous community partnerships. These three wonderful venues add depth and richness to the musical life of UBC. Thanks to significant investments by the Province, University, Faculty of Arts, the School of Music itself, and the support of many generous private donors, our faculty and students enjoy facilities that few institutions Photo credit: Martin Dee can match. We are always delighted to welcome the community to our many performances in these three superb venues.

    A Lesson Learned at David Bowie's Expense

    BERWITZ & DiTATA LLP Attorneys and Counselors at Law 310 Old Country Road Suite 101 Garden City, New York 11530 Telephone (516) 747-3200 ● Facsimile (516) 747-3727 Lawrence N. Berwitz Maureen R. DiTata A Lesson Learned at David Bowie’s Expense David Bowie, a trend setting entertainer, died from cancer on January 10, 2016. By January 29 the media was already in possession of the details of Mr. Bowie’s estate plan. We learned that his estate was worth as much as $100 million, $2 million of which he left to his personal assistant and another $1 million to his older child’s nanny. The balance of his estate was divided between his wife Iman and his two children. Until his death, we were not privy to any of this personal information. Why? Because it was not until his Last Will and Testament, which was executed in 2004, was filed with the Court and became available to the public, that his highly personal decisions were disclosed to the world. During his lifetime, the size of Mr. Bowie’s estate was not public knowledge. He did not twitter about his cash bequests to non-family members. He did not post that his estate on Little Tonshi Mountain, near Woodstock, would become the property of his 15 year old daughter. Yet, after his death, all this became known to the world. And this is not the only information that is available in the Court file. His last known address and the addresses of his wife and children are set forth in the file as is a valuation of each of his assets.

  • ITALIAN BOWIE Tutto Di David Bowie in Italia E Visto Dall'italia INTRODUZIONE

    ITALIAN BOWIE Tutto Di David Bowie in Italia E Visto Dall'italia INTRODUZIONE

    Davide Riccio ITALIAN BOWIE Tutto di David Bowie in Italia e visto dall'Italia INTRODUZIONE Bowie ascoltava la musica italiana? Ogni nazione avrebbe voluto avere i propri Elvis, i propri Beatles, i propri Rolling Stones, il proprio Bob Dylan o il proprio "dio del rock" David Bowie, giusto per fare qualche nome: fare cioè propri i più grandi tra i grandi della storia del rock. O incoronarne in patria un degno corrispettivo. I paesi che non siano britannici o statunitensi perciò di loro lingua franca mondiale sono tuttavia fuori dal gioco: il rock è innanzi tutto un fatto di lingua inglese. Non basta evidentemente cantare in inglese senza essere inglesi, irlandesi o statunitensi et similia per uguagliare in popolarità internazionale gli originari o gli oriundi ed entrare di diritto nella storia internazionale del rock. A volte poi, pur appartenendo alla stessa lingua inglese, il cercarne o crearne un corrispettivo è operazione comunque inutile ai fini del fare o non fare la storia del rock, oltre che un fatto assai discutibile, così come avvenne a esempio negli States in piena Beatlemania con i Monkees, giusto per citare un gruppo nel quale cantava un certo David o Davy Jones, lo stesso che - per evitare omonimia e confusione - portò David Robert Jones, ispirandosi al soldato Jim Bowie e al suo particolare coltello, il cosiddetto Bowie knife, ad attribuirsi un nome d'arte: David Bowie. I Monkees nacquero nel 1965 su idea del produttore discografico Don Kirshner per essere la risposta rivale (anzitutto commerciale) americana ai Beatles, quindi i Beatles americani o gli anti-Beatles.

However, there have been very few discussions on the practice of creating or capturing visual manifestations of Glitches in today’s highly signal perfect media and pixel perfect computer interfaces. This seems paradoxical in relation to earlier trends of discussing qualities of media and is testament to the fact that we are becoming more silent as technology finds its own voice. The underlying theme in this study, was to find out what it is that drives visual glitch artists in their desire to create glitches and to seek an answer to the question, can the glitch be an effective medium in the ‘pantheon of artforms?’1 - “While Glitch Music has experienced a greater amount of exposure, other forms of Glitch Art have remained more obscure.
