    Oral history interview with William T. Wiley, 1997 October 8-November 20 Funding for the digital preservation of this interview was provided by a grant from the Save America's Treasures Program of the National Park Service. Contact Information Reference Department Archives of American Art Smithsonian Institution Washington. D.C. 20560 www.aaa.si.edu/askus Transcript Interview PAUL KARLSTROM: Smithsonian Institution, an interview with William T. Wiley, at his studio in Woodacre, California, north of San Francisco. The date is October 8, 1997. This is the first session in what I hope will be a somewhat extensive series. The interviewer for the archives is Paul Karlstrom. Okay, here we go, Bill. I've been looking forward to this interview for quite a long time, ever since we met back in, it was the mid-seventies, as a matter of fact. At that time, in fact, I visited right here in this studio. We talked about your papers and talked about sometime doing an interview, but for one reason or another, it didn't happen. Well, the advantage to that, as I mentioned earlier, is that a lot has transpired since then, which means we have a lot more to talk about. Anyway, we can't go backwards, and here we are. I wanted to start out by setting the stage for this interview. As I mentioned, Archive's [of American Art] interviews are comprehensive and tend to move along sort of biographical, chronological structure, at least it gives something to follow through. But what I would like to do first of all, just very briefly, is kind of set the stage, and by way of an observation that I would like to make, which is also, I think, a compliment.

  • March 2019 Newspaper
    ELITE NEWS A Student Publication of Humanities III March 2019 (Volume 5) Pi Day Competition By Lorenzo Mcbean Pi Day is celebrated on March 14th (3.14) around the world. Pi (Greek letter “π”)is the symbol used in mathematics to represent a constant the ratio of the circumference of a circle to its diameter — which is approximately 3.14159. Pi Day is an annual opportunity for math enthusiasts to recite the infinite digits of Pi. According to our HUM III Pi Day Competition contestants, the experience was ¨Fun, impressive, and nerve wracking." So I interviewed the contestants on how they prepared for the event and here are their responses: Ms Cryer: “I actually didn’t prepare a whole lot, but when I got there someone had the sheet so I stole it and memorized it really fast. The Tuesday after there was a trivia (Trivia Tuesdays) and one of the questions was ‘What were the first 5 digits of pi?’ Since I participated in Pi Day I got the question right.” (21 digits) Ms Oborne: “So, 10 minutes before the competition I studied the numbers last minute. I memorized as many as I could to the tune twinkle twinkle little star. Also, it was easier to memorize them in groups of 4. It was really impressive to see the two students winners work hard to memorize the numbers.” (27 digits) Taylor Freeman: "In Mr.Fitz's classroom we repeated the numbers over and over till it was stuck in my head. It was a fun experience.” (41 digits) Abou Dieng: “I studied a lot, and then the weekend prior to the event I reviewed it to make sure I knew it.

  • “I Know That We the New Slaves”: an Illusion of Life Analysis of Kanye West’S Yeezus
    1 “I KNOW THAT WE THE NEW SLAVES”: AN ILLUSION OF LIFE ANALYSIS OF KANYE WEST’S YEEZUS A THESIS SUBMITTED TO THE GRADUATE SCHOOL IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE MASTER OF ARTS BY MARGARET A. PARSON DR. KRISTEN MCCAULIFF - ADVISOR BALL STATE UNIVERSITY MUNCIE, INDIANA MAY 2017 2 ABSTRACT THESIS: “I Know That We the New Slaves”: An Illusion of Life Analysis of Kanye West’s Yeezus. STUDENT: Margaret Parson DEGREE: Master of Arts COLLEGE: College of Communication Information and Media DATE: May 2017 PAGES: 108 This work utilizes an Illusion of Life method, developed by Sellnow and Sellnow (2001) to analyze the 2013 album Yeezus by Kanye West. Through analyzing the lyrics of the album, several major arguments are made. First, Kanye West’s album Yeezus creates a new ethos to describe what it means to be a Black man in the United States. Additionally, West discusses race when looking at Black history as the foundation for this new ethos, through examples such as Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and Nina Simone’s rhetoric, references to racist cartoons and movies, and discussion of historical events such as apartheid. West also depicts race through lyrics about the imagined Black male experience in terms of education and capitalism. Second, the score of the album is ultimately categorized and charted according to the structures proposed by Sellnow and Sellnow (2001). Ultimately, I argue that Yeezus presents several unique sounds and emotions, as well as perceptions on Black life in America. 3 Table of Contents Chapter One
