You're Invited!
You’re Invited! 1st Anniversary Celebration Saturday, August 4, 2018 Drop by during the day for cake and enjoy these wonderful performances: 11am - “Festival” : Directed by Murray Lerner Special Screening in advance of the official U.S. Premiere in Los Angeles Festival depicts the American folk revival of the 1960s through observing the annual Newport Folk Festival between 1963 and 1966. The film is an amazing historical document of a rich cultural moment, setting the stage for the more revolutionary developments of the later 60s and 70s. The big names are all there, including Pete Seeger, Peter, Paul and Mary, Donovan, Joan Baez and Bob Dylan. But unlike the more canonized and better-known 60s festival documentaries like Monterey Pop, Woodstock and Gimme Shelter, Festival presents a relatively diverse and inclusive notion of what would come to be called the “counterculture.” 1:00-2:30pm - Come make a “Who Are You” Collage! (All Ages) Laura Numsen is a Maryland Institute, College of Art graduate who’s taught art, writing, and culture in schools, colleges, and eldercare settings. She also leads SoulCollage® and Vision Board retreats, helping people of all ages tap into their inner wisdom. 4:00pm - Lisa Viggiano “Magic in the Night: A Tribute to the Artistry of Bruce Springsteen” BroadwayWorld 2016 Winner for BEST CABARET FEMALE VOCALIST. Coast to Coast, VIGGIANO has performed as a singer/actor since childhood, sharing the stage and screen with talents such as Sarah Jessica Parker, Tom Hanks, Rita Moreno and Bonnie Raitt. A native “Jersey Girl”, LISA has been seen singing the National Anthem for the NJ Devils, NY Rangers and the NY Mets. -

He transmutes the lower East Side settings of those gangster movies to give the genre a richer, more luxuriant visual texture. His widescreen view of a group of Jewish kids who start with petty crime and move into big- time racketeering is set in 1921, 1933, and 1968, but not in that order….It isn't just the echoing moments that keep you absorbed--it's the reverberant dreamland settings and Leone's majestic, billowing sense of film movement.” (Pauline Kael) 4K Restoration 251 min. -
Producer, Director, Cinematographer and Editor)
Deconstructing Dad—The Music, Machines and Mystery of Raymond Scott Biography--Filmmaker-Stan Warnow (Producer, Director, Cinematographer and Editor) Stan Warnow received his B.A. from the University of Rochester and after graduating from the NYU School of the Arts cinema program with a Master of Fine Arts began working in New York City both as a cinematographer and editor on documentaries and dramatic films, and has worked in both genres for his whole career. His first feature editing credit was on The Honeymoon Killers, a low budget film noir that went on to be named to the New York Times 10 best list of 1969, as well as becoming a huge European hit--Francois Truffaut at one point referred to it as "his favorite American film." His next major project, as a cameraman and editor was the 1970 Academy Award winning and editing nominated feature documentary Woodstock. He was an editor on many music based projects throughout the 70's including the feature film Hair and the concert documentary No Nukes. He was also an editor on Ragtime. In 1982 he co-directed, co-produced, and supervised the editing of the award winning documentary feature In Our Hands, the film chronicle of the massive June 12, 1982 New York rally against nuclear weapons and energy. The film was a massive all volunteer effort, and included the participation of Pete Seeger, James Taylor, Peter Paul and Mary, and Meryl Streep, and behind the camera luminaries such as Barbara Kopple, Robert Leacock and Buddy Squires. In 1984 he edited the Warner Brothers production of Sesame Street's Follow That Bird. -
In Search of Lost Chords: Joni Mitchell, the Last Waltz, and the Refuge of the Road
103 5 In Search of Lost Chords: Joni Mitchell, Th e Last Waltz , and the Refuge of the Road Gustavus Stadler Murray Lerner’s fi lm Message to Love: Th e Isle of Wight Festival 1970 documents Joni Mitchell’s confrontation with an unruly crowd at an increasingly chaotic three-day concert, where an audience of 200,000 watched performances by acts like Jimi Hendrix, Th e Who, and Th e Doors. Her few minutes on screen will never fi t as neatly with glib proclamations of the “end of the 60s” as the events at the free concert at Tracy, California’s Altamont Speedway, organized by the Rolling Stones and documented in the far more canonical fi lm Gimme Shelter . But Message to Love’s depiction of Mitchell’s confrontation with the festival audience carries some of the same force. In both fi lms, dreams seeded at the Woodstock Music & Art Fair of 1969 turn into nightmares. Like Gimme Shelter , Lerner’s fi lm charts the breakdown of business-as-usual at a huge, outdoor, multi-artist concert. But in Message to Love , Woodstock’s shadow looms more literally; just aft er Mitchell fi nishes playing her eponymous anthem of tribute to the already legendary aff air, her microphone is commandeered by an apparently acid-baked hippie named Yogi Joe, who rather incoherently attempts to speak up for a group of people protesting outside the festival, demanding that it be made free. 1 Mitchell’s manager fi nally pulls Joe off stage, prompting a chorus of boos and jeers from the audience. -

FROM BIRTH TO DEATH OF COOL by Brandon Theriault An Honors Thesis Submitted to the Lee Honors College of Western Michigan University April, 2009 INTRODUCTION "Miles Davis was a bad dude. He was one of the baddest men in jazz... baddest jazzman ever." -Alvin Jones. Who is Alvin Jones? Alvin Jones is the man I just met outside of the Bernhard Center on Western Michigan University's campus in Kalamzoo, MI. I have been laboring over my honors thesis for months now; I am approaching its completion and was at a loss for a way to start the piece. As Alvin Jones stumbled up to me panhandling for a cigarette I could not help but notice his physical similarity to Miles. He looked to be approaching 65, white whiskers sparsely covering his face and making appearances throughout his eyebrows. He was slender, taller than average, and had exaggerated facial features; large luminous eyes, long eyelashes and high cheekbones. -
Kramp RF V2i1 SP2011 (Pdf)
The Diegetic Presence and Absence of Children in the Rock and Roll Festival Film; or, Whatever Happened to the Mother and Child Reunion? by Michael Kramp The rock and roll festival films of the late 1960s and early 1970s invite us to consider the efficacy of live diegetic music—i.e. music that belongs to the narrative world a film and is captured as a live public performance—within documentaries that offer ostensibly objective treatments of historical events. These accounts of early rock and roll concerts, often dubbed rockumentaries, treat the music, musicians, scenes, and fans of the emergent rock and roll counterculture, an oft-mythologized generation that criticized the stringent ways and belligerent world of their parents and optimistically vowed to create a new social order. The musical performances in such films are well known as cultural documents that reflect the energy, creativity, and passion of this distinctive generation. The live music of these films, of course, also helps to solidify the spatio-temporal realities of these rockumentaries; as diegetic sound, it grounds people and events within real time and material places, unlike edited compilations such as music videos. And yet, the music of these festival films engenders important narrative complexities when it is used alongside montages and sound bridges—specific filmic techniques that have the capacity to modify temporal progression, complicate our perceptions of space, and destabilize the objectivity of a film. In the films that I consider here, children are consistently shown within such moments of temporal discontinuity. The Monterey Pop Festival (1967), Woodstock (1970), and The Isle of Wight Festival (1970) offer us poignant depictions of children, including announcements of children‟s births, jarring portraits of infants at rock shows, and gorgeous montages of kids and families enjoying a time of revolution and revival. -
