  • Mapping the Urban Activity Patterns: Using Social Media Data As a Tool for Data Collection and Design Development
    Mapping the urban activity patterns: using social media data as a tool for data collection and design development Yang Song, North Dakota State University; [email protected] Jessica Fernandez, Clemson University, [email protected] Introduction In the last few decades, the size of data has been exponentially growing. Social media, smart phones, sensors, and the internet create, copy and transform data with unprecedented speed and scale (The Economist, 2010). ‘Big data’ has never been more accessible or more powerful. A variety of industries including finance, marketing, energy, telecommunications, agricul- ture, and real estate have been adopted big data technologies to make more informed decisions and to be able to predict trends. Many social media platforms such as Yelp, TripAdvisor, and Facebook provide a large scale of information regarding behavior and perceptions associated with places and communities all over the world. Analysis of societal needs and public opinions becomes key to building a more equitable urban environment that is beneficial to a broad spectrum of people (Dobbins, 2009). However, few studies have been published in the fields of urban design and the built environment to examine the application of ‘big data’. This paper presents a case study using the so- cial media website TripAdvisor to inform the concept development of an urban design project in Chicago, Illinois. A database of all the attributes on the attractions of the TripAdvisor “things to do” category was developed. By extracting, processing, and analyzing large amounts of geocoded information in TripAdvisor, the study identified the patterns of urban activities that were pre- viously inaccessible to designers using a parametric indexing method.

  • Chicago Music Communities and the Everyday Significance of Playing Jazz
    MUSIC PRACTICES AS SOCIAL RELATIONS: CHICAGO MUSIC COMMUNITIES AND THE EVERYDAY SIGNIFICANCE OF PLAYING JAZZ by John Frederic Behling A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (Music: Musicology) in The University of Michigan 2010 Doctoral Committee: Professor Mark Allan Clague, Chair Professor Paul A. Anderson Professor Kelly M. Askew Professor Charles Hiroshi Garrett Copyright John Frederic Behling 2010 Acknowledgements In this dissertation, I argue that the solos of jazz musicians spring from the practices of the communities in which they live. What holds true for expression and creativity in jazz is no less true of academic research and writing. This dissertation would not be possible without the support and encouragement of many communities and individuals. I thank all the musicians in Chicago who played music with me and welcomed me into their communities. I am especially grateful to Aki Antonia Smith, Edwina Smith, Scott Earl Holman, and Ed Breazeale for befriending me and introducing me to the musicians and communities about whom I write. I am also grateful for the support of my academic community. Kelly Askew introduced me to the anthropological side of ethnomusicology. Her writing showed me what compassionate and concrete ethnography should be like. Paul Anderson’s late night seminars helped me understand that musical practices have philosophical and psychological significance and that jazz criticism is part of a much larger and long- standing intellectual conversation. Charles Hiroshi Garrett, a late addition to my committee, embraced this project with enthusiasm. His generous encouragement and insightful comments are greatly appreciated.

David Sanborn will perform with the UI ALUMNI JAZZ BAND as part of tonight’s program. 3 EVENT SPONSORS SHAUN GLICK AND JESSICA TUCKER GLICK ROGER AND SARAH LANDE JEFF AND SUSAN SAILORS SHIVE-HATTERY ARCHITECTURE + ENGINEERING SEASON SPONSOR WEST MUSIC 4 Photo: Bill Adams ABOUT THE ARTISTS DAVID SANBORN (saxophone) has released 25 albums, won six Grammy Awards, and has had eight Gold albums and one Platinum album. Having inspired countless other musicians, Sanborn has worked in many genres which typically blend instrumental pop, R&B, and lately, more and more traditional jazz. He released his first solo album, Taking Off, in 1975, but has been playing the saxophone since before he was in high school when he was inspired by the great Chicago blues artists near his hometown of St. Louis. Having contracted polio at the age of three, Sanborn was introduced to the saxophone as part of his treatment therapy. By the age of 14, he was able to play with legends such as Albert King and Little Milton. Sanborn went on to study music at Northwestern University before transferring to the University of Iowa where he played and studied with the great saxophonist JR Monterose. Later traveling to California on the advice of a friend, he joined the Butterfield Blues Band and played Woodstock with Paul Butterfield. Following that, Sanborn toured with Stevie Wonder and recorded for Wonder’s Talking Book album, played with The Rolling Stones, and toured with David Bowie with whom he recorded the famous solo heard on “Young Americans.” At the same time, Sanborn was touring and recording with the great Gil Evans, dividing his time between the two.
