Oral history interview with David F Moses, 2007 June 29
Born in Kendallville, Indiana, David Moses grew up near extended family. Participated in theater, sports, boy scouts; also worked at local dime store. Graduated from high school and left immediately for Purdue; worked as lifeguard that first summer. Lived one year in Cary Hall and three years in Hall "X" (Meredith). Majored in Trade and Industrial Education. During college years, involved in photography (for The Exponent), residence hall politics (Excalibur Club), Pershing Rifles with ROTC, etc. Graduated Purdue in 1955; got job on campus in Film Library through interest in photography. Discussion on the Film Library's movement to Stewart Center and involvement on campus. Moses became Film Librarian after about thirteen years as Assistant Film Librarian; in 1981 he became the Director of Undergraduate Library Services. Mention of MPATI (Midwest Program for Airborne Television Instruction) used before cable was available. Retired since June 1996. Discussed children and grandchildren; celebrated 50th anniversary July 7th, 2007

Images of Moses and sixteenth-century Venice
This thesis addresses the striking proliferation of Moses imagery in sixteenth-century Venice by considering the images as a distinctive category. Although the narratives of Moses can be found elsewhere in Italy, the Venetian treatment of these subjects is distinguished by their number and their placement not in private chapels but in locations available to a broad audience. Additionally, a contrast can be made between the central Italian examples, which display variations on a political theme originally established by St. Thomas Aquinas, and the peculiar Venetian approach to the prophet, influenced by the city’s Byzantine roots and its constitution. In tracing the development of this imagery in the sixteenth century, initial consideration must be given to the roots of its stylistic interpretation in the Veneto where paintings for chapels of the Sacrament exhibit the group-oriented compositions that characterize the works throughout the period. In this context, the pioneering work of Jacopo Tintoretto forms the principal focus of this thesis, arguing that he was the first to introduce Moses imagery into Venice on a monumental scale. In his works for the main chapel of the Church of the Madonna dell’Orto and the ceiling of the Scuola Grande di San Rocco, the image of Moses takes on heightened theological significance in the general religious context of the Counter Reformation and in particular Venetian contexts of parish and confraternity. The interplay of such monumental painting and printed book illustration is also considered. It is the influence of Tintoretto’s approach to Moses on later artists that forms in part the foundation for the proliferation of the subjects in the later years of the sixteenth and the early years of the seventeenth century
The Narrative Function of the Song of Moses in the Contexts of Deuteronomy and Genesis-Kings
The Song of Moses is acknowledged to be one of the most difficult texts to
interpret within the book of Deuteronomy. Substantial effort has been put in to
determine the Song's origin in terms of its dating and reason for composition. But
more scholars are now seeing the need to relate the Song to its immediate context.
However, the recent contributions to this topic show the need for a closer examination
of the Song's narrative function, not only in Deuteronomy but also in its larger
context in Genesis-Kings. Understanding the Song's function in this large corpus
necessitates the way in which it relates to Deuteronomic themes such as the YHWHIsrael
relationship, Torah, worship, and kingship. This thesis examines the
theological and hermeneutical function of the Song in Deuteronomy and GenesisKings
in their final forms. As a prophetic criticism of Israel, it focuses its audiences'
attention on the central command of the Torah, the moral issue of covenant-keeping,
and Israel's vocation as witness to the nations, resulting in a theology of history for all
nations. With reference to Deuteronomy, the Song expresses the heart of the book.
With reference to Genesis-Kings, it gives us a sense of beginning and closure to the
history of the people of YHWH in terms of Israel's primeval past and future hope respectively

Dynamics and folding of single two-stranded coiled-coil peptides studied by fluorescent energy transfer confocal microscopy
We report single-molecule measurements on the folding and unfolding conformational equilibrium distributions and dynamics of a disulfide crosslinked version of the two-stranded coiled coil from GCN4. The peptide has a fluorescent donor and acceptor at the N termini of its two chains and a Cys disulfide near its C terminus. Thus, folding brings the two N termini of the two chains close together, resulting in an enhancement of fluorescent resonant energy transfer. End-to-end distance distributions have thus been characterized under conditions where the peptide is nearly fully folded (0 M urea), unfolded (7.4 M urea), and in dynamic exchange between folded and unfolded states (3.0 M urea). The distributions have been compared for the peptide freely diffusing in solution and deposited onto aminopropyl silanized glass. As the urea concentration is increased, the mean end-to-end distance shifts to longer distances both in free solution and on the modified surface. The widths of these distributions indicate that the molecules are undergoing millisecond conformational fluctuations. Under all three conditions, these fluctuations gave nonexponential correlations on 1- to 100-ms time scale. A component of the correlation decay that was sensitive to the concentration of urea corresponded to that measured by bulk relaxation kinetics. Thetrajectories provided effective intramolecular diffusion coefficients as a function of the end-to-end distances for the folded and unfolded states. Single-molecule folding studies provide information concerning the distributions of conformational states in the folded, unfolded, and dynamically interconverting states.Author manuscript.
