The Influence of African Rhythms Talk of syncopation, call and response, and timbre can get complex and technical, but on a basic level, they are the soul of this new African American music: they give the music "looseness" and excitement, relaxation and drive. The alternation between leader and chorus, often called call-and-response, is a defining characteristic of African music and became an important element of African American music. Call and response is also crucial because it involves the audience; it transcends the seperation of audience and performers so common in the west. northbysouth.kenyon.edu /1998/music/rhythm/rhythm.htm   (377 words)

Using Call-and-Response To Facilitate Language Mastery and Literacy Acquisition among African American Students. ERIC ... She suggests that responses function to affirm or agree with the speaker, urge the speaker on, repeat what the speaker has said, complete the speaker's statement in response to a request from the speaker or in spontaneous talking with the speaker, or indicate extremely powerful affirmation of what the speaker has said. Responses can follow from a speaker's specifically requesting them or eliciting them by manipulating their own discourse, or they can be unsolicited and spontaneously interjected into the ongoing interaction (Foster, 1989). Analysis of this excerpt along the four dimensions--code, function, mode, and initiator--reveals that it consisted of a verbal call and a musical response; it expressed speakers' attitudes by celebrating learning (i.e., the student's use of the more sophisticated term injured); it was highly scripted or routinized; and it was initiated by the teacher. www.ericdigests.org /2003-3/call.htm   (1793 words)

StuderGroup - Response to Call Lights When I was at a hospital on the west coast, speaking with nurse leaders, one of the Studer Group coaches gave a very beneficial presentation on response to call lights, all based on her own research and personal experience as a nurse. Yet, the most favorable response from the nurses was the discussion of how call lights relate to the core of nursing-providing great clinical care. Call lights should be answered by someone who is cheerful, caring, and responsive. www.studergroup.com /dotCMS/knowledgeAssetDetail?inode=109186   (585 words)

CD Baby: CALL AND RESPONSE: Tiger Teeth Call and Response released their new full-length album Winds take no shape in spring of 2004. Uncut called it "a magnificent surprise" and Jane magazine said "the uncorny indie-rock answer to Sade, moody wake-and-bake vibes." With this record, the band innovated a sound that was impressionistic, mystical, and beautiful. In November of 2004, we get to take a step back to experience a time when Call and Response were in between the twee sound of their debut and the matured radiance of their recent full length. cdbaby.com /cd/callresponse2   (667 words)

Call and Response I called the meditation “Differentiation,” and I wrote it as part of a worship service focusing on “Transformation” that I was helping to lead at Starr King School for the Ministry during the time that I was a student there. The call is the deep religious hunger for affirmation that we are heard, we are seen, we are connected, we are not alone. For it is in the call and the response and the response again that we are transformed, and we transform one another, from self-sufficiency to specialization, from independence to interdependence. www.uucb.org /sermons/2003060101   (2210 words)

Music with Whales Beluga calls are dense and otherworldly, with more kinds of sounds than any other animal. Orca calls are thus musically complex in structure and remind some listeners of jazz soloing over chords. For one example, we are currently developing a software sampler triggered by the whales' themselves; with certain increments of delays triggering different macros that vary the response, essentially testing the acoustic sophistication of beluga communication. www.interspecies.com /pages/whalmusi.html   (901 words)

numberless » Call & Response; Game Design Problem #2 Let’s call it “call and response,” not only because they’re the first words that popped into my head, but because, as it turns out, they have a real and utterly parallel meaning. With call and response, a statement does not pass without affirmation of its reception, regardless of how the listener regards it. In terms of interface, “call and response” means a button should tell me when I click on it, before a system performs any consequential tasks. www.numberless.net /blog/2006/08/01/call-response   (588 words)

Call & Response "Forrest Hamer’s Call and Response is a tightly woven tapestry of impulses and life rituals, a tribute to what keeps us whole and true to human complexity.

Badman Recording Co. - Bands   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03) With their debut self-titled album, Call And Response hopped from one label to the next (namely Kindercore and Emperor Norton), and looks like they've hopped one more time for their sophomore effort -- landing them on Badman Records. On paper, Call and Response don't seem like much: A band that's absorbed the cleaner, quieter side of post-rock (American Analog Set, the Sea and Cake) into their collective bloodstream, plus not one but two female vocalists who might have made serious coin - or at least Chris Douridas' playlist - during trip-hop's heyday. Listening to Call and Response's second album, Winds Take No Shape, it's hard to believe the band ever had a reputation as bubbly, sunny California popsters. www.badmanrecordingco.com /bands/default.aspx?productDetail=winds   (1269 words)

Digital Web Magazine - Call and Response: Handling RFP Tension They will just gloss over the parts of your response that they don’t understand or that don’t fit into the grid they are using to compare their options. I am constantly calling prospective clients who are still mulling their decision to update them on our schedule and resource availability.

Times & Seasons » Call and Response I was called to a red sector of a blue state, and at the time I was happy to not be going to South America, where most of my family members and many of my friends had gone and come back with tales of recurrent intestinal disorders. That being said, M.J., my response to your particular comment–”It has caused me to realize that I never really reconnected with any of my freshman friends (male or female) after my mission”–would have be that such was not the case my freshman year. Also, calls to Russia and former Soviet republics soon after the end of the cold war was seen as particularly cool–something many never thought they would see in their lives. www.timesandseasons.org /?p=2928   (9322 words)

Call and Response   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03) Northern California pop quintet Call and Response (C.A.R.) employs the warm analog tones of Wurlitzers, Moogs, and Farfisas along with a ton of feathery doop-de-doo harmonies to produce sticky-sweet, lighter-than-air summery pop music. Like later Free Design records, C.A.R. even spike their bubblicious, kaleidoscopic sound with a little gentle funk, which might occasionally inspire a "Hey, who put that Sly my Air?" for some listeners, but on the whole works very nicely. The quintet formed in the Bay Area in the late '90s and recorded its first album in 2000 after heading out to Athens to play at a Kindercore music festival. www.epitonic.com /artists/callandresponse.html   (286 words)

...---... - Call and Response I finally concluded that due to his refusal to take responsibility for his bigotry, he was not safe to interact with. I suspect I need to go digging into some psych books and find out what the proper words for conditioning for emotional response are – there’s a whole field of work devoted to it, and it gets used to good and ill in fields such as interrogation and crisis management. My big difficulty with that field of study is that there tends to be a presumption that since emotional response can be conditioned for, all emotional response _must_ be conditioned for in some manner. wetdryvac.livejournal.com /306052.html   (3585 words)

Call-and-response: parallel "slave narrative" in August Wilson's 'The Piano Lesson.' - African American author African ...   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03) The structure of the play, then, is a narrative within a narrative, a literal slave narrative integrated into a metaphorical one, with the latter (Boy Willie's narrative) reflecting both a continuation of and an attempt to bring to fruition the former one (the family's). In this story, the call consists of the slave narrative that has been carved into the body of the piano; Boy Willie's response is his improvised effort to translate that myth into the reality of his own economic and social emancipation. But the interaction in The Piano Lesson is instead structured like the classic call-and-response; the two narratives are linear - evolutionary rather than integrated - and so, in the manner of the traditional call-and-response pattern, the direction of the interaction is not toward resolution or even progress, but toward an appropriate response to the call. www.findarticles.com /p/articles/mi_m2838/is_n2_v32/ai_21059955   (741 words)
