SUMMARY:Live from Lock One: Tisziji Muñoz Quartet
DESCRIPTION:Electric guitarist Tisziji Muñoz\, formerly of Schenectady\, is considered by many to be among the greatest and least-known living musicians. His music evokes the cosmic free jazz of John Coltrane’s later work and\, like a saxophonist\, Muñoz plays only one note at a time\, yet he can play with such velocity that the notes blur\, akin to Coltrane’s sheets of sound.

SUMMARY:Democracy Now! Co-Host Juan Gonzalez
DESCRIPTION:Two-time Polk Award-winning New York Daily News columnist and Democracy Now! co-host Juan Gonzalez has emerged as one of the country’s best-known and most-respected Latino journalists during a turbulent career spanning more than 35 years.  \n\n\n\nEven before he entered journalism\, Gonzalez distinguished himself as a leader of the Young Lords\, a militant civil rights organization of the late 1960s\, and of the National Congress for Puerto Rican Rights in the 1970s. The author of four books\, his most recent is News for All the People: The Epic Story of Race and the American Media. His recent reporting on the fatal shooting of a retired Marine in White Plains cracked a tightly kept secret\, revealing for the first time that the man who pulled the trigger is one of six cops accused in a federal police brutality case stemming from an incident in 2008.

SUMMARY:Joseph Bowie/Adam Rudolph Duet
DESCRIPTION:Free Jazz and electronica meet the rhythms of the world. Adam Rudolph and Joseph Bowie first performed together in 2000 at Lincoln Center with Yusef Lateef. They have collaborated in numerous projects since then\, including a trio with Omar Sosa and\, most recently\, in Adam Rudolph’s Moving Pictures. Their music is grounded in the American improvisational tradition while embracing music forms\, languages\, instrumentation\, and cosmologies of Europe\, Africa\, the Middle East\, Asia\, and the African Diaspora.   \n\n\n\nDecades of performance and research into these music cultures have given the artists the background and experience to create a unique and unprecedented improvisational art form.  \n\n\n\nJoseph Bowie: trombone\, electronics\, vocal\, harmonica\, congas\, djembe\, percussion; and Adam Rudolph: handrumset (congas\, djembe\, tarija)\, frame drum\, thumb pianos\, gongs\, percussion and multiphonic singing\, sintir\, piano  \n\n\n\nCo-sponsored by iEAR Presents! and the Arts Department at RPI.

SUMMARY:"Sex in an Epidemic\," with Filmmaker Jean Carlomusto
DESCRIPTION:A compelling history of the HIV/AIDS epidemic and its ongoing impact\, especially on  the gay\, Afrian-American and Latino communities hardest hit. The film shows a world living with the disease for nearly 30 years\, while ignorance and prejudice about it endure. By focusing specifically on the need for honest comprehensive sex education\, this engaging documentary by Jean Carlomusto\, Sex in an Epidemic (2010) provides a sociocultural perspective on the history of the HIV/AIDS epidemic and its ongoing impact on the most effected populations including the gay\, African-American and Latino communities. Incorporating interviews and media footage from the earliest days of the AIDS panic through the present\, Sex in an Epidemic reminds us that\, though the world has been living with the realities of HIV/AIDS for nearly 30 years\, ignorance and prejudice about the disease must still be combated.
