  • Spectrum History W. Visuals
    1980 – 2020 Celebrating 40 Years! Spectrum A&E Media 1980-2020 Celebrating 40 Years! Spectrum Productions was established in 1980 in Regina, Saskatchewan to provide multimedia resources for organizations working with students in Canada. A board of committed friends sacrificially stood behind Keith and Jenny Martin to help raise support and give direction to the work. Spectrum’s Roots The roots of Spectrum go back to 1970, when Keith, having graduated with a B.A. in psychology and a minor in philosophy from the University of Regina, spent time at L’Abri Fellowship in Switzerland. L’Abri was and still is a live-in student community founded by Francis and Edith Schaeffer to explore answers to basic philosophical questions from a Christian worldview. 2 In 1971 Keith, Steve Archer and Art Pearson applied for and received a federal Opportunities For Youth grant for a summer project called Street Level: A Multimedia Culture Probe. Inspired by seeing 2100 Productions in the United States, they wanted to do something similar in Canada. With a budget of $8,800 they hired 8 students (Keith, Steve, Art, Gene Haas, Chris Molnar, Steve and Lorne Seibert, and Linda McArdell—and Henry Friesen for the presentation phase) at $1,000 each for 3 months of work. That left $800, and lots of borrowed eQuipment, to produce a 5-screen, 7-projector 80 minute multi-media presentation using contemporary music to look at what people were living for. 3 Some of the artists used in the production were Pink Floyd, Simon & Garfunkle, Strawbs, STREET LEVEL Steppenwolf, Leonard Cohen, Cat Stevens, Moody Soundtrack (1971) Blues, Traffic, Chicago, Procol Harem, Black “Careful With That Axe, Eugene” - Pink Floyd (Ummagumma) “At the Zoo” - Simon & Garfunkle (Bookends) “I’ve Got a Story” - Gary Wright (Extraction) Sabbath, King Crimson, and Ford Theatre.

  • Christianity & the Arts, Wi
    Christianity & the Arts, Winter 2000 The Magazine Christianity & the Arts Online Winter 2000 Homecoming Lyrics of Canadian Songwriter Bruce Cockburn By Brian Walsh At home in the darkness but hungry for dawn . Forgetfulness is the temptation of homelessness. Elie Wiesel puts it this way: "The one who forgets to come back has forgotten the home he or she came from and where he or she is going. Ultimately, one might say that the opposite of home is not distance but forgetfulness. One who forgets, forgets everything, including the roads leading homeward." This relation of home and memory is, of course, not alien to the Scriptures. Indeed, it is precisely forgetfulness that is seen to occasion the homelessness of exile, and it is memory that keeps the vision of homecoming alive while in exile. "Don't forget where you have come from, who led you out of slavery and who gave you this bountiful land," says Deuteronomy 8, lest you go into exile. And when exile does befall forgetful Israel, it is memory of Yahweh's past faithfulness - memories of Abraham and Sarah, Noah, David, indeed of creation and exodus - that funds the prophetic imagination and keeps alive the vision of homecoming. If home is a place of deeply rooted memories, then homelessness is a state of amnesia in which we forget who we are precisely because we forget where we come from. And as long as the amnesia holds, there is no way back, no homecoming. The themes of home, homelessness, and homecoming, together with the motif of memory, are ubiquitous in the lyrics of Canadian songwriter and performer, Bruce Cockburn.

  • No Labels, Please! Music Is Evolutionary Process for Cockburn Meyers Sharp, Jo Ellen
    7/7/15, 9:04 PM Back to previous page document 1 of 1 No labels, please! Music is evolutionary process for Cockburn Meyers Sharp, Jo Ellen. Indianapolis Star [Indianapolis, Ind] 25 Oct 1994: C.5. Abstract (summary) Despite nearly 25 years in the music business and superstar status in his native Canada, the 49- year-old singer-songwriter is both an unknown and an anomaly in the United States. Down at the bus station Shark grins and sandpaper conversations Men's faces women's bodies on the magazine stand And a headline about Sarajevo and Tehran.

The inability to pigeon-hole Bruce Cockburn and his style of music can make him a hard sell. Despite nearly 25 years in the music business and superstar status in his native Canada, the 49-year-old singer-songwriter is both an unknown and an anomaly in the United States. He gained some recognition in this country with the release in 1984 of Stealing Fire and the protest anthem If I Had A Rocket Launcher. His popularity, however, has increased in recent years http://search.proquest.com.ezproxy.ilibrary.org/indianapolisstar/printviewfile?accountid=46127 Page 1 of 6 7/7/15, 9:04 PM with the development of adult album alternative stations on radio. Bloomington's WTTS-FM (92.3), for example, has regularly played cuts from Cockburn's lastest disc, Dart to the Heart, and his 1991 release, Nothing But A Burning Light.

  • “Our Silence Buys the Battles”: the Role of Protest Music in the U.S.-Central American Peace and Solidarity Movement
    “Our Silence Buys the Battles”: The Role of Protest Music in the U.S.-Central American Peace and Solidarity Movement CARA E. PALMER “No más! No more!” “No más! No more!” Shout the hills of Salvador Shout the hills of Salvador Echo the mountains of Virginia In Guatemala, Nicaragua We cry out “No más! No more!” We cry out “No más! No more!”1 In the 1980s, folk singer John McCutcheon implored his fellow U.S. citizens to stand in solidarity with Central Americans in countries facing United States (U.S.) intervention. Combining both English and Spanish words, his song “No Más!” exemplifies the emphasis on solidarity that characterized the dozens of protest songs created in connection with the U.S.-Central American Peace and Solidarity Movement (CAPSM).2 McCutcheon’s song declared to listeners that without their active opposition, the U.S. government would continue to sponsor violence for profit. McCutcheon sang, “Our silence buys the battles, let us cry, ‘No más! No more!,’” urging listeners to voice their disapproval of the Reagan administration’s foreign policies, because remaining silent would result in dire consequences. One hundred thousand U.S. citizens mobilized in the 1980s to protest U.S. foreign policy toward Central America. They pressured Congress to end U.S. military and financial aid for the military junta in El Salvador, the military dictatorship in Guatemala, and the Contras in Nicaragua. The Reagan administration supported armed government forces in El Salvador and Guatemala in their repression of the armed leftist groups FMLN and MR-13, and the Contras in Nicaragua in their war against the successful leftist revolution led by the FSLN.

Stanley Hauerwas and Jean Vanier offer two well-known examples. Absent has been a “serious or systematic effort to ask what Christians of other ages might bring to this inquiry” (p. 4). This reader represents the editors’ deliberate attempt to fill this gap. The readings compiled within this volume span Christian history, from the patristic era (e.g., Cappadocians), through the Middle Ages (e.g., Julian of Nor- wich) and Reformation (e.g., Luther and Calvin), to the present (e.g., Hauerwas). 54 The Covenant Quarterly, Vol. 73, Nos. 3/4 (August/November 2015) Each historical text is prefaced with an introductory essay that seeks to contextualize the author’s thought in order to prevent anachronistic evaluations. To this end, the editors asked contributors to undertake a “searching investigation of the sources to discover the conditions they [the historical authors] considered disabling” (p. 10, emphasis original). Seeking to enter the worldview of historical thinkers, each contributor addresses the following questions: What does each thinker directly say about disabling conditions? What is problematic about their accounts? What can we learn from such accounts? (p.
