    In Part 1 of “Operación Pedro Pan: The Voices and Stories of Cuba’s Child Exodus—A Knights HistoryCast Mini-Series,” the Department of History’s Sebastian Garcia talked with Alexis Castellanos, an author, illustrator, graphic novelist, and a panelist at the esteemed, conspicuous, and powerful “Operación Pedro Pan: Honoring the Cultural, Historical Legacy of Cuba’s Child Exodus” Two-Day Program that Florida Humanities, UCF’s Department of English and Department of Modern Languages and Literatures sponsored (see https://cah.ucf.edu/pedro-pan/ for more details on sponsors and the program in general). Sebastian structured this specific episode on Alexis Castellanos’ Isla to Island, a wordless graphic novel grounded by her personal family history and the history of Operación Pedro Pan (Operation Peter Pan). By analyzing such a historic event through the medium of fiction, Sebastian argued that this is one of the most unique Knights HistoryCast episodes of all time. Naturally, their conversation expanded to what she talked about during her panel presentation in Panel One, Day 1 of the event that featured “internationally renowned scholars that discussed the political, historical, and cultural legacy of Operación Pedro Pan (1960-1962).” (https://cah.ucf.edu/pedro-pan/) To purchase Isla to Island (strongly recommend), check out: https://islatoisland.com/.

    THE MYSTIC ROAD : SELECTED POEMS - ALEXIS KARPOUZOS

    No full text
       Alexis karpouzos (born on April 09, 1967) is a philosopher, author, spiritual master and pioneer of higher consciousness. He is author of several books on philosophy, metaphysics, spirituality, modern science. His most famous books are: ‘’Universal consciousness’’, ‘’non-duality’’, ‘’An ocean of souls’’, ‘’Beyond the heaven’’. Alexis Karpouzos is also a recording artist. He has recorded two music albums and twenty-four singles songs. He has also appeared in two documentary films, television and radio productions. He is the pioneer of the post-ontology consciousness and the wisdom of universal wholeness. The global language of poetry of Alexis Karpouzos, by following the paths of wisdom, is a vehicle for transmitting human knowledge and values, history, ancient traditions, and links with nature. It transmits the human values and worldly knowledge that are essential for opening ourselves to the Other. Poetic creation, therefore, forges very strong links between humans -it transcends beyond languages, beliefs and cultures. Each poem appears in its original form, in a vibrant celebration of life, diversity, language, and the enduring power of poetry. At a time when the Humanities are under threat, this book offers a defense of poetry within the context of growing interest in mindfulness in spirituality, in consciousness, in art, in education.</p

    Concierto 3.14 para quena solista y rondador “Análisis interpretativo”

    No full text
    El Concierto 3.14 de Alexis Zapata utiliza la secuencia decimal de Pi (3.14159...) para estructurar la repetición de notas, creando una melodía única que fusiona tradición y modernidad. La obra está compuesta para instrumentos andinos solistas, como la quena y el rondador, representando una innovación en el repertorio de estos instrumentos, que tradicionalmente han sido utilizados como acompañamiento. La quena, un instrumento de viento de origen andino, y el rondador, un instrumento de viento de múltiples tubos, son explorados en sus capacidades técnicas y expresivas, incorporando técnicas avanzadas como el vibrato, la respiración diafragmática y el uso de alteraciones. El proyecto se basa en un sistema compositivo que transforma una melodía andina tradicional siguiendo la secuencia de Pi, lo que permite una reinterpretación de la música andina desde una perspectiva matemática. Esto no solo amplía las posibilidades expresivas de los instrumentos, sino que también establece un diálogo entre la música y las matemáticas, promoviendo la interdisciplinariedad. La tesis también aborda la importancia de desarrollar métodos pedagógicos formales para la enseñanza de los instrumentos andinos, ya que su aprendizaje se basa actualmente, en gran parte, en la tradición oral. El análisis melódico de la obra revela cómo la secuencia de Pi influye en la estructura de la melodía, generando variaciones que mantienen un equilibrio entre la música andina tradicional y un enfoque compositivo moderno. En conclusión, el Concierto 3.14 representa un avance significativo en la música andina, combinando elementos tradicionales con técnicas modernas y conceptos matemáticos. La obra no solo amplía el repertorio solista de los instrumentos andinos, sino que también sienta un precedente para futuras exploraciones en la intersección entre el arte y la cienciaThe Concierto 3.14 by Alexis Zapata uses the decimal sequence of Pi (3.14159...) to structure the repetition of notes, creating a unique melody that blends tradition and modernity. The piece is composed for solo andean instruments, such as the quena and the rondador, representing an innovation in the repertoire of these instruments, which have traditionally been used for accompaniment. The quena, a wind instrument of Andean origin, and the rondador, a multiple-pipe wind instrument, are explored for their technical and expressive capabilities, incorporating advanced techniques such as vibrato, diaphragmatic breathing, and the use of alterations. The project is based on a compositional system that transforms a traditional andean melody by following the sequence of Pi, allowing for a reinterpretation of andean music from a mathematical perspective. This not only expands the expressive possibilities of the instruments but also establishes a dialogue between music and mathematics, promoting interdisciplinarity. The thesis also addresses the importance of developing formal pedagogical methods for teaching andean instruments, as their learning is currently based primarily on oral tradition. The melodic analysis of the work reveals how the Pi sequence influences the structure of the melody, generating variations that maintain a balance between traditional andean music and a modern compositional approach. In conclusion, Concierto 3.14 represents a significant advancement in andean music, combining traditional elements with modern techniques and mathematical concepts. The piece not only expands the solo repertoire of andean instruments but also sets a precedent for future explorations at the intersection of art and sciencePregradoLicenciado(a) en Artes Musicale
