Chandler Lecture series entitled Every Brain Needs Music: The Neuroscience Of Music-Making And Listening. The presentation is October 20 at COCC. You can find more information and a ticket link here.

    The talk involves great classical music and signing, audience singing, and cutting-edge information about how learning to make music strengthens the brain in very significant ways.

    This interview gets into the science, but also Dr. Sherman’s own life and reasons for adding this study of music and the brain to his foundational work on repairing damage to the brain.

    KPOV Interviews BendFilm Best Director Elisa Levine of the film Sweetheart Deal Oct 13, 2022
    Show notes

    KPOV and host Bruce were honored to interview Sweetheart Deal Director Elisa Levine on the Thursday Point October 6. It’s a beautiful interview and a great film.

    We were not surprised, but were very proud, to hear that Elisa and Co-Director Gabriel Miller won Bendfilm’s Best Director Award for Sweetheart Deal.

    Sweetheart Deal looks at the life of four Seattle women who are addicted to heroine and engaging in sex work to earn a living. They are aided by someone who lets them know he cares for women like them. There is a plot twist we won’t spoil for you.

    Listen to this interview for so much insight. It was conducted before Bendfilm 2022, so you will hear some dated material, but the description of the film and the Directors’ motivations and methods are engaging and informative.

    Benfilm 2022 is available on line until October 23 at at https://www.bendfilm.org/

Juniper, a gun safety activist since hse was 12 years old, openly and courageously expressed her frustration, and that of other youth, at the lack of action by adults to prevent mass shootings.
