He added, “We work to educate property and business owners on how they can make their properties safe and come into compliance with fire and life safety codes.” Pacific Grove City Manager Ben Harvey said, “Conducting fire prevention inspec- tions is an important function that the city provides to the community to keep it safe.” He has established a goal that all multi-family residential buildings have an initial inspection conducted by the end of 2018.

Carolynn Walker started the afternoon off with a beautiful concert prelude with her rendition of “Brian Boru’s March,” a traditional Irish tune, played on a harp that she built herself. Following Walker’s impressive performance, the orchestra began their repertoire with “Romeo and Juliet Overture” by Russian composer Pyotr Tchaikovsky. Like many composers of the time, Tchaikovsky drew heavily from Shakespeare, and also composed pieces based on “The Tempest” and “Hamlet.” The piece, showing the contradiction between the tender meeting of Romeo and Juliet and the violent feuding of the Montagues and Capulets, featured a strong contrast between the violins and the brass sections. The group’s second piece, “Music from The Chronicles of Narnia,” an arrangement based off of the movie soundtrack composed by Harry Gregson-Williams, featured an excellent flute intro in addition to prominent parts from the percussion and trumpet sections. Following the musical rendition of C.S. Lewis’ famous novels came a classical piece, “Pavanne,” originally composed for piano in 1899 but rearranged for a full orchestra by French composer Maurice Ravel in 1910. In the piece, Ravel aims to replicate the slow pavanne style of dance popular in France and Spain during the late 19th century, creating a detached, almost dream-like tone through the extended use of pizzicato, a musical style in which the string players forgo bowing in favor of plucking their strings. The next piece, “Cello Concierto, mvt. 1” by Edward Elgar, featured soloist Michael Blackburn, who in the past has also played violin and clarinet for PG Pops. Blackburn delivered, nailing the solo, showcasing the mastery of such complex skills as vibrato and fluid movement between various different, difficult cello positions. “Somewhere in Time” (composed by John Barry/arr. Calvin Custer), the orchestra’s fifth piece, also featured a soloist - Eugene Loh on the piano. A founding member of the PG Pops Orchestra, Loh has featured for several seasons as a percussionist, playing timpani, bass drum, and mallets, though piano is his preferred instrument. From the 1980 romantic drama film of the same name, the piece also showcased the violin and cello sections. The orchestra concluded their concert with a rendition of “Symphony No. 1, Se- lections,” originally composed by the musical great Gustav Mahler, but arranged and conducted by PG Pops’ own Scott Seward. Seward, a music instructor himself, plays trumpet for the orchestra but also acts as an assistant director for PG Pops, having conducted several PG Pops songs in the past. Seward, who called Mahler’s piece the “guiding star” of his musical life, made sure to include an impressive offstage trumpet solo, strong and aggressive percussion parts, and a chaotic finale meant to fully capture the powerful energy manifested in Mahler’s music. At the conclusion of the concert, conductor Barbara Priest was overjoyed. “I founded PG Pops back in 2014,” said Priest. “It’s meant to be a truly intergenerational orchestra. I want to include amateurs and students as well as professional musicians. It’s open to everybody.” “Our orchestra is based on true community,” Priest continued, “We have parents and children playing music side by side, and our concerts are always free to the public.

THOME has been approved for the School of Art + Design and the College of Fine Arts by Samuel Dodd Lecturer of Art History Matthew R. Shaftel Dean, College of Fine Arts 3 Abstract THOME, HANNAH R., M.A., May 2018, Art History Ravelry.com: Augmenting Fiber Craft Communities and Social Making with Web 2.0 Director of Thesis: Samuel Dodd Ravelry.com is a social networking website for fiber crafters, launched in May 2007 by Jessica and Casey Forbes. The Forbes’ main goal had been to help makers who were previously frustrated by the insubstantial, inconsistent fiber craft information on the internet. One decade later, the site has spawned a sizable niche community of over seven and a half million dedicated members. In 2017, I surveyed over three hundred members of Ravelry.com to glean information on crafting trends within the twenty-first century. From their answers I investigate fiber arts in contemporary spaces of social making. I put my research in dialogue with craft theory, digital production and gendered craft research to explore how fiber crafting has arrived at its current incarnation. According to my survey respondents, Ravelry.com has evolved to fulfill multiple purposes in the lives of crocheters, knitters, spinners and weavers.

CONTENTS Dying Sun 3 The Group 21 Like Angel’s Wings 52 The Eternal Lake 55 Desertbound 72 3 Dying Sun The night before my grandfather’s funeral, I stole his ashes. I crept down the stairs, cloaked in darkness, The only light was the soft green glow emanating from the kitchen stove clock that read 1:52 a.m. Being careful to avoid the floorboards that creaked, I took the shiny black urn containing the last remnants of my grandfather and wrapped my arms around it, pressing it against my midsection. I could feel the coolness of the metal through my thin shirt. A shiver prickled up my spine; the looming shadows of the living room seemed more sinister that night. My mother’s brown leather purse hung next to the front door on a hook. I reached within, and took out her wallet, stowing a few twenties and her debit card into the back pocket of my tattered jeans. I reached for the doorknob, and… “Sam?” I turned, my heart beating loudly in my ears.
