    Ohebnost zvuku ve filmové tvorbě Davida Lynche Ann Kuznetzova Bakalářská práce 2020 ABSTRAKT Tato práce se zaměřuje na analýzu zvukové tvorby Davida Lynche, především filmové, na příkladu jeho audiovizuálních děl Mazací hlava, Příběh Alvina Straighta, Inland Empire a jejich srovnání. Zabývá se způsobem ztvárnění idejí a určením charakteru zvukové tvorby Davida Lynche. Hlavním cílem je zjistit, do jaké míry je podstatná a v čem spočívá její určující dominantní vlastnost – ohebnost, a také prozkoumat vliv jiných druhů umění, osob, prostředí a událostí, které tvůrce dovedly k vlastnímu uměleckému sebevyjádření prostřednictvím zvuku. Obsahuje také rozhovor se zvukovým inženýrem Johnem Neffem, který se podělil o svoji zkušenost ze spolupráce s Lynchem. Klíčová slova: David Lynch, filmový zvuk, filmová hudba, Mazací hlava, Příběh Alvina Straighta, Inland Empire, Angelo Badalamenti, Alan Splet, Dean Hurley, John Neff ABSTRACT This Bachelor thesis focuses on the soundtrack in the cinematography of David Lynch with its primary goal of analyzing and comparing films of his authorship, in particular Eraserhead, The Straight Story, and Inland Empire. This thesis examines David Lynch’s creative process and establish the essence of his sound design. The aim is to determine wherein lies – and how major of a role plays – the dominant characteristic of David Lynch’s work, its versatility, as well as to explore how the environment, society, and different fields of art influenced the filmmaker in his own artistic expression through the language of sound. To further help answering those questions, an interview with a sound engineer, John Neff, was conducted, in which he talked about his experience of collaborating with David Lynch on several projects.

  • Meditation MAN
    Bringing Calm to the Center of life’s storm MEDItAtION MAN BY Ann Brenoff If there was a perfect year in which to discover transcendental meditation, it might just have been 1968. That was the year that Bob Roth was a freshman at UC Berkeley — a campus considered Ground Zero for the anti-war movement and the cultural changes sweeping through the country at the time. He remembers living surrounded by helicopters spewing tear gas over student war protesters and Army tanks parked outside his front door. Demonstrations. Riots. Chaos. ¶ And against this backdrop, Roth did what many college students do: He took a part-time job. He sold scoops of ice cream at Swenson’s ice cream parlor, never expecting that amid the rush of pending social changes engulfing him, it would be at the ice cream shop where he would meet a guy who would ultimately alter the course of his life forever. avid Lynch Foundation Lynch avid d Bob Roth speaks about the benefits of Transcendental Meditation (TM) at a health conference in previous page and this page: and this page: page previous Los Angeles in 2011. meditation huffington man 10.27.13 The college crew at Swenson’s mance, which introduces the TM was the usual motley collection of program to business, industry and hippies, straights and everything government organizations — and in between, recalls Roth.

  • DONOVAN PRESS Release2h
    DONOVAN, PAUL McCARTNEY AND RINGO STARR ON STAGE TOGETHER WITH SUPERSTAR GUESTS. The David Lynch Foundation, of which Donovan is the musical wing, has put together an incredible and historic line up of Donovan, Paul McCartney, and Ringo Starr, together with fellow meditator, Paul Horn (Jazz flautist) to perform at a fundraising concert to bring Transcendental Meditation to more than one million students. The concert will take place at Radio City Music Hall, New York City on April 4th 2009. As if this four weren’t enough they will be joined by: Eddie Vedder, Sheryl Crow Moby, Bettye La Vette and Jim James. David Lynch, Russell Simmons, Laura Dern, and other surprise guests will fill out the star‐studded slate as presenters. During the past two years Donovan, his wife Linda and David Lynch have travelled the world, most recently Brazil, presenting the meditation technique of Maharishi Mahesh Yogi and attracting mass media attention. The technique is now transforming education and students wellbeing wherever it has been introduced. It was in 1968 that Donovan, The Beatles, Paul Horn and other seekers of enlightenment went to India to study with their teacher Maharishi. On his return Donovan was at the forefront in promoting meditation to the West. “ The Beatles and I had searched for a teacher of meditation, as we knew from our studies of the books that this was the way truly to make humankind aware of what we were doing to each other and to bring peace to the world .We found Maharishi and he found us”. David Lynch has acknowledged the important role that Donovan’s example gave in bringing him to meditation 39 years ago.

  • David Lynch Curates an Art and Music Festival in Brooklyn.” Hyperallergic
    Sutton, Benjamin. “David Lynch Curates an Art and Music Festival in Brooklyn.” Hyperallergic. 16 May 2018. Web. David Lynch Curates an Art and Music Festival in Brooklyn The Festival of Disruption features Isabella Rossellini, Naomi Watts, Gregory Crewdson, a hefty lineup of musical acts, and, of course, a talk by Lynch himself. David Lynch and Sheryl Lee (photo courtesy of the David Lynch Foundation) What kind of art and music festival has a dedicated space for transcendental meditation? One curated by artist and filmmaker David Lynch, of course. This weekend, the Festival of Disruption arrives in Brooklyn (after a 2016 outing in Los Angeles), with a fulsome lineup of exhibitions, screenings, talks, musical performances, and, from 10am to 8pm on both days of the festival, a comfortable lounge for transcending. Appropriately, proceeds from the entire affair will benefit the David Lynch Foundation, which advocates for the therapeutic and restorative power of transcendental meditation. The musical lineup is nothing to sneer at — with members of LCD Soundsystem, Animal Collective, and My Morning Jacket doing solo sets, as well as performances by Au Revoir Simone and Jon Hopkins — but neither is the art quotient, which includes works by Lynch himself as well as William Eggleston and an off-site exhibition of Sandro Miller’s photographs of John Malkovich as iconic characters from Lynch’s films and Twin Peaks. On Saturday, Isabella Rossellini will lead a talk before a screening of Lynch’s Blue Velvet (1986), and on Sunday, after Naomi Watts discusses transcendental meditation at 11am, photographer Gregory Crewdson will be on hand to discuss a new short documentary about the casting process for his elaborately produced (and, some might say, Lynchian) images.

  • David Lynch with Phong Bui” Brooklyn Rail
    Phong Bui. “David Lynch with Phong Bui” Brooklyn Rail. December 2019. Web. David Lynch with Phong Bui “The best thing is just to get going on anything and not be afraid” Portrait of David Lynch. Pencil on paper by Phong Bui. Those who have followed David Lynch’s remarkable career as a filmmaker are likely aware of his equally remarkable career as an artist. From the very start, the creative impulse was sparked by his painting, then gradually through the unique pace of Lynch’s alchemical growth, he has henceforth been able to harvest other related mediums to expand his visual lexicon, from photography, sculpture, lamps, furniture, and music to the monumental undertaking of creating the David Lynch Foundation for Consciousness–Based Education and World Peace (facilitating access to Transcendental Meditation as a stress-reducing method for “at-risk” populations including the homeless, US military veterans, African war refugees, and prison inmates). Like many who have encountered the enigmatic sphere of Eraserhead (1977) and Elephant Man (1980) or at the very least have been perplexed by the science fiction epic Dune (1984), which Lynch has disowned due to the loss of his artistic control and the denial of his final cut privilege, yet everyone was rather relieved and delighted when Lynch redirected his attention back inside the orbit of his sui generis vision. As the late David Foster Wallace once wrote, “Lynch’s Innocent Idealism had survived Dune. He cared less about money and production budget than about regaining control of the fantasy and toys.” It’s precisely from this clarity the Lynchian sensibility was set free.

The ceremony will take place at the Majestic Hotel at 4 p.m. Donovan will be honored along with two other medal recipients: Paul Zilk, the CEO and president of Reed MIDEM; and Philippe Jaroussky, the famed French sopranist countertenor. Donovan will receive his medal 16 months after filmmaker David Lynch was honored by French President Nicolas Sarkozy as an “Officer of the Legion of Honor.” “Donovan is greatly deserving of this high award,” Mr. Lynch said. “He’s a cosmic musician—his songs have brought bliss and enlightenment to the world for more that 40 years.” Donovan works closely with Mr. Lynch, heading up the musical wing of the David Lynch Foundation for Consciousness Based Education and World Peace. Donovan and his wife, Linda, have traveled with Mr. Lynch throughout Europe, America, and Brazil to bring the benefits of Transcendental Meditation to education. Through their efforts, the Lynch Foundation has now provided scholarships for more than 60,000 children worldwide to learn to meditate.

  • Marines' Favorite Pinup Girl Katy Perry Asks 28
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Media Contact: Jillian Nannery, The TASC Group Phone: 646-723-4344 [email protected] Marines’ Favorite Pinup Girl Katy Perry Asks 28 Million Fans to Help David Lynch Teach Meditation to Veterans for her Birthday Tomorrow New York, NY – October 24, 2012: World renowned superstar Katy Perry has requested donations be made to the David Lynch Foundation, a U.S. based charity that provides meditation instruction at no charge to veterans suffering from PTSD. Perry asked her more than 28 million Twitter followers to support The David Lynch Foundation in honor of her birthday on October 25. In lieu of gifts, Perry asked for donations to be made to the foundation and plans to tweet about this again leading up to her 28th birthday. Thousands of veterans have benefitted from Transcendental Meditation, which has been proven to reduce the psychosocial symptoms of stress, anxiety and depression, and regulate the sympathetic nervous system.
