Funded by the New York City Department for the Aging and Your Contributions AUGUST 2021 NEWSLETTER FUNDED BY THE NEW YORK CITY DEPARTMENT FOR THE AGING AND YOUR CONTRIBUTIONS FROM THE DIRECTOR Flexibility and choice are key to the next phase of reopening. Members can choose to pick up their meals or eat at the Center. And, as we add more on-site activities, members can elect to return in person or continue with virtual programming. For August, we have planned a series of concerts and lectures in the Y’s theater, allowing more people to attend and still remain in compliance with social distancing rules. We also plan to have a pre- Rosh Hashanah luncheon to welcome in the Jewish New Year. We’ll add more on-site activities in September and beyond. For those of you who are not ready to return to the Center, we will continue to offer classes and special events on-line. And, our DOROT intergenerational program continues on-line for the first three weeks in August. We expect that on-line programming will remain a permanent part of our Center. We continue to offer daily roundtrip transportation to the Y. If you need transportation, please leave a message at (718) 548-8200 x225 the day before you wish to be picked up. You’ll receive a confirmation call in the morning when we plan our route sheets for the day. Masks are required in our van and social distancing rules apply. Effective August 16, the City will require proof of vaccination or weekly testing for all Center staff and volunteers. While the vast majority of our staff are already vaccinated, this mandate provides an additional level of formalized protection for our members. Your safety continues to be our first priority. While New Beginnings, like all Older Adult Centers in NYC, is not authorized to require vaccination for in-person attendance, we strongly encourage you to get vaccinated for your own health and safety as well as for the health and safety of everyone around you in our community. Vaccinations are now readily available at walk-up sites, NYC mobile vans and buses, and other locations throughout the city. You can even schedule a vaccination at home with your vaccine of choice (Pfizer, Moderna or Johnson & Johnson). In the meantime, all Older Adult Center participants are required by the Department of Health to wear masks and practice social distancing. Of course, guidelines are continuously changing. We will disseminate all new information, announcements and updates as we receive them from health authorities. I am looking forward to seeing everyone in person.

    CLONES, BONES AND TWILIGHT ZONES: PROTECTING THE DIGITAL PERSONA OF THE QUICK, THE DEAD AND THE IMAGINARY By JosephJ. Beard' ABSTRACT This article explores a developing technology-the creation of digi- tal replicas of individuals, both living and dead, as well as the creation of totally imaginary humans. The article examines the various laws, includ- ing copyright, sui generis, right of publicity and trademark, that may be employed to prevent the creation, duplication and exploitation of digital replicas of individuals as well as to prevent unauthorized alteration of ex- isting images of a person. With respect to totally imaginary digital hu- mans, the article addresses the issue of whether such virtual humans should be treated like real humans or simply as highly sophisticated forms of animated cartoon characters.

  • The Birth of Haptic Cinema
    The Birth of Haptic Cinema An Interactive Qualifying Project Submitted to the Faculty of WORCESTER POLYTECHNIC INSTITUTE In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of Bachelor of Science by Panhavuth Lau Jordan Stoessel Date: May 21, 2020 Advisor: Brian Moriarty IMGD Professor of Practice Abstract This project examines the history of The Tingler (1959), the first motion picture to incorporate haptic (tactile) sensations. It surveys the career of its director, William Castle, a legendary Hollywood huckster famous for his use of gimmicks to attract audiences to his low- budget horror films. Our particular focus is Percepto!, the simple but effective gimmick created for The Tingler to deliver physical “shocks” to viewers. The operation, deployment and promotion of Percepto! are explored in detail, based on recently-discovered documents provided to exhibitors by Columbia Pictures, the film’s distributor. We conclude with a proposal for a method of recreating Percepto! for contemporary audiences using Web technologies and smartphones. i Contents Abstract .......................................................................................................................................... i Contents ........................................................................................................................................ ii 1.

    Oral history interview with Vincent Price, 1992 Aug. 6-14 Funding for the digital preservation of this interview was provided by a grant from the Save America's Treasures Program of the National Park Service. Contact Information Reference Department Archives of American Art Smithsonian Institution Washington. D.C. 20560 www.aaa.si.edu/askus Transcript Preface The following oral history transcript is the result of a tape-recorded interview with Vincent Price on August 6, 1992. The interview took place in Los Angeles, California, and was conducted by Paul Karlstrom for the Archives of American Art, Smithsonian Institution. Interview Tape 1, side A (30-minute tape sides) [At the time of this interview, Mr. Price was quite ill with Parkinson’s disease—Ed.] PAUL KARLSTROM: [Archives of American—Ed.] Art, Smithsonian Institution, an interview with Vincent Price on August 6, 1992, at his home in the Hollywood Hills—I guess this area is called—up at the top of Doneny, in a home that’s literally covered with art objects. This is the first session in a projected series. We’ll see how it goes over a period of time, dealing with Mr. Price’s career, and particularly his involvement with the arts, specifically and primarily in Southern California. This is Tape one, side A, and the interviewer for the Archives is Paul Karlstrom, West Coast Regional Director. So I think that we can get started. Well, I should say that this is a pleasure, an honor. I’m pleased to be here, and I’m glad that I’m the one that gets to do this interview.
