Wanderings Newsletter of the OUTDOORS CLUB INC
Wanderings newsletter of the OUTDOORS CLUB INC. http://www.outdoorsclubny.org ISSUE NUMBER 108 PUBLISHED TRI-ANNUALLY Jul-Oct 2014 The Outdoors Club is a non-profit 501(c) (3) volunteer-run organization open to all adults 18 and over which engages in hiking, biking, wilderness trekking, canoeing, mountaineering, snowshoeing and skiing, nature and educational city walking tours of varying difficulty. Individual participants are expected to engage in activities suitable to their ability, experience and physical condition. Leaders may refuse to take anyone who lacks ability or is not properly dressed or equipped. These precautions are for your safety, and the wellbeing of the group. Your participation is voluntary and at your own risk. Remember to bring lunch and water on all full day activities. Telephone the leader or Lenny if unsure what to wear or bring with you on an activity. Nonmembers pay one-day membership dues of $3. It is with sorrow that we say goodbye to Robert Kaye, the brother of Alan Kaye, who died in January. We have been able to keep the dues the same, and publish the Newsletter because of Robert’s benevolence to the Club. Robert wanted to make sure that the Club would continue after Alan’s death. Please join Bob Susser and Helen Yee on Saturday, October 18th, at the New York Botanical Gardens for a memorial walk in honor of Robert Kaye. CHECK THE MAILING LABEL ON YOUR SCHEDULE FOR EXPIRATION DATE! RENEWAL NOTICES WILL NO LONGER BE SENT. It takes 4-6 weeks to process your renewal. Some leaders will be asking members for proof of membership, so please carry your membership card or schedule on activities (the expiration date is on the top line of your mailing label).

Chapter 3: Socioeconomic Conditions
Chapter 3: Socioeconomic Conditions A. INTRODUCTION This chapter analyzes whether the proposed actions would result in changes in residential and economic activity that would constitute significant adverse socioeconomic impacts as defined by the City Environmental Quality Review (CEQR) Technical Manual.1 The proposed actions would result in the redevelopment of an underutilized site with an approximately 214,000- square-foot (sf), 60-foot-tall commercial building currently anticipated to be a BJ’s Wholesale Club along with up to three other retail stores on the second level, 690 parking spaces, and approximately 2.4 acres of publicly accessible waterfront open space. The Brooklyn Bay Center site (“project site”) is located at 1752 Shore Parkway between Shore Parkway South to the east, Gravesend Bay (Lower New York Bay) to the west, and between the prolongation of 24th Avenue to the north and the prolongation of Bay 37th Street to the south. The objective of the socioeconomic conditions analysis is to determine if the introduction of the retail uses planned under the proposed actions would directly or indirectly impact population, housing stock, or economic activities in the local study area or in the larger retail trade area. Pursuant to the CEQR Technical Manual, significant impacts could occur if an action meets one or more of the following tests: (1) if the action would lead to the direct displacement of residents such that the socioeconomic profile of the neighborhood would be substantially altered; (2) if the action would lead to the displacement of substantial numbers of businesses or employees, or would displace a business that plays a critical role in the community; (3) if the action would result in substantial new development that is markedly different from existing uses in a neighborhood; (4) if the action would affect real estate market conditions not only on the site anticipated to be developed, but in a larger study area; or (5) if the action would have a significant adverse effect on economic conditions in a specific industry.

Beginning with a focus on music composition using technology in the 1980s, his interests have ranged widely over the digital domain where he developed particular interests in the processes of interaction between the creative mind and physical objects. He has spent considerable time experimenting with technology and ideas, and many of his completed works have been publicly presented in a diverse range of curated contexts. Alistair holds degrees in Music and Computer Science from La Trobe University and a PhD in music composition from Princeton University. He lectured in Sound Art and Physical Computing at the Australian National University after which he returned to Melbourne and has worked as a freelance artist/researcher collaborating on projects around Australia. 2 Education Princeton University (New Jersey, USA) Naumberg Fellowship 1993 PhD Thesis title: Composing the Interface 1991 Master of Fine Arts La Trobe University (Melbourne, Australia) 1989 Master of Arts Thesis title: A Perspective on the Acoustic Piano as a Performance Medium under Machine Control 1986 Post Graduate Diploma in Computer Science 1981 BA (Hons) Job History/Appointments/Projects (2000 onwards) Carillon Keyboard Project.

Reflections on Learning Coding As a Musician V. 1
REFLECTIONS ON LEARNING LIVE CODING AS A MUSICIAN May Cheung LiveCode.NYC [email protected] ABSTRACT Live-coding music has become a large trend in recent years as programmers and digital artists alike have taken an interest in creating algorithmic music in live setings. Interestingly, a growing number of musicians are becoming live coders and they are becoming more aware of its potential to create live electronic music using a variety of coding languages. As a musician who live codes music, it became apparent to me that my process in creating musical structure, harmonic ideas and melodic ideas were diﬀerent than live coders who came from a programming background. Using the live code environment Sonic Pi (based on the programming language Ruby, created by Dr. Sam Aaron) as a reference, we argue the parallels and diﬀerences between the experience of live coding music versus the experience of performing and playing music. In rare occasions, the dichotomy of the two worlds converge as we present the work of Anne Veinberg, a renown classically-trained pianist who uses a MIDI keyboard as an interface to code through a program created by composer-performer Felipe Ignacio Noriega. 1. INTRODUCTION Afer spending many years as a musician from a jazz performance background, I was excited to try a new method of creating music. Introduced to a live coding program called Sonic Pi through friends in January 2018, I have had many opportunities to live code and present in front of audiences: from sizable nightclub crowds to atentive teenagers during their coding summer camp at NYU.
