Having played the instru- ment for, then, almost two decades, I thought that a novelist would not, could not, feature specialty instruments such as the C-melody sax if he did not play the horn himself. Once the saxophone had caught my attention, I noticed all sorts of uncommon references that seemed to confirm my hunch that Thomas Pynchon himself played the instrument: McClintic Sphere’s 4½ reed, the contra- bass sax of Against the Day, Gravity’s Rainbow’s Charlie Parker passage.

Banner Moments: The National Anthem in American Life Unlike the Declaration of Independence, the U.S. Constitution, or even the American Flag, Francis Scott Key’s song “The Star-Spangled Banner” lacks a singular icon that defines it. Rather the song must be brought to life through performance. Individuals sing the anthem into a fleeting materiality, simultaneously constructing themselves as a community while inscribing the song ever more deeply into cultural memory. The artifacts in this exhibit capture material iterations of the song and thus record the crystallization of an American national consciousness.

  • Washington Provided Her with a Sketch of an Idea He Had for the American Flag
    Washington provided her with a sketch of an idea he had for the American flag. Ross changed the star from a 6-pointed star to a 5-pointed star. The flag developed consisted of 13 stars arranged in a circular pattern on a blue background in the upper left corner with 13 horizontal stripes, 7 being red and 6 being white. It was not until July 4, 1960 that our current flag was adopted when Hawaii became the 50th star to be added to flag. If this new Country had a flag, they had to have a song! On March 4, 1931, the Star-Spangled Banner was adopted as the national anthem. Francis Scott Key During the war of 1812, Key along with John Stuart Skinner, a British Happy Independence Day!
