Generational Teaching
" ... An educator will learn to gain and keep the interest of students from different generations by employing non-conventional intercommunication teaching methods. Students will learn to engage with teachers and mentors from different generations by learning through a language that speaks specifically to them. This book is a guide on education through relationship building and a snapshot on how communication affects us all. To accomplish this, we will explore practices to introduce and maintain dialogue between groups, as well as to establish relationship guidelines and boundaries through teaching methods."--Introduction

Where the Heart Beats
A “heroic” biography of John Cage and his “awakening through Zen Buddhism”—“a kind of love story” about a brilliant American pioneer of the creative arts who transformed himself and his culture (The New York Times) Composer John Cage sought the silence of a mind at peace with itself—and found it in Zen Buddhism, a spiritual path that changed both his music and his view of the universe. “Remarkably researched, exquisitely written,” Where the Heart Beats weaves together “a great many threads of cultural history” (Maria Popova, Brain Pickings) to illuminate Cage’s struggle to accept himself and his relationship with choreographer Merce Cunningham. Freed to be his own man, Cage originated exciting experiments that set him at the epicenter of a new avant-garde forming in the 1950s. Robert Rauschenberg, Jasper Johns, Andy Warhol, Yoko Ono, Allan Kaprow, Morton Feldman, and Leo Castelli were among those influenced by his ‘teaching’ and ‘preaching.’ Where the Heart Beats shows the blossoming of Zen in the very heart of American culture.

Louis Armstrong, Master of Modernism
The definitive account of Louis Armstrong—his life and legacy—during the most creative period of his career.
