The book provides insights on how nonprofits can use data and measurement to further their missions in today's networked age.

The document outlines the objectives, goals, strategies, and insights from a theater's experiment using Twitter and other social media to improve communications with its audiences. The theater's goal was to increase its follower count on Twitter and Facebook pages. Its initial strategy was to follow similar groups, copy their tactics of starting conversations and sharing blogs. Over time, it started creating its own content like videos. The response was small on Twitter but its Facebook audience started to grow and converse. The theater found it challenging to implement new marketing strategies amid its already busy schedule of productions. Its key insight was to focus first on listening, then find influencers and offer metrics to grow the audience over time.

This document outlines Frameline's listening experiment to track online conversations about LGBTQ films and media. It lists keywords and accounts Frameline follows to monitor discussions on Google, Twitter, blogs and more. Frameline found filmmakers promoting their work, festival news articles, LGBTQ film and celebrity news, and used this information to track press, engage online, and refine their strategies for programming and outreach. Future plans include refining search terms, learning from peer organizations, growing their blog, and using what they hear to help shape programs and non-festival engagement.

San Francisco Performances received positive mentions this week after announcing their 2010-2011 season, with highlights mentioned in two newspaper articles. Some negative comments were also found in response blogs, with one criticizing a Philip Glass piece as "indulgent crap." Neutral mentions included upcoming events in calendars. In response, San Francisco Performances plans to expand their outreach by setting up a Twitter account and identifying news about artists to share on social media, as well as cultivating influencers. They will distribute this report to their Directors of Marketing, Public Relations and Education.

SECTION ONE Directions: Select a journal from a discipline that pertains to your specific research interests. Spend time in the library (or online) visiting the journal, reviewing it since its inception. BILLBOARED or ROLLINGSTONE MAGAZINE, WHICH are MUSIC THEMED will work here. Consider the history, development, major players, subscription rates, publication information, acceptance/publication rates, style manual, editorial board, schools of contributors, kind of work contributed, what gets published, forums/ book reviews.

Pay attention to long-term trends. PART I.

Project 3Pop Culture Across Cultures Context & Description.docx

Project 3 Pop Culture Across Cultures Context & Description South Korean pop artist Psy’s smash hit single “Gangnam Style” is more than just a song. It is a cultural phenomenon. The video has gone viral on YouTube, garnering over 600 MILLION hits in just three months, becoming the third-most viewed video on the website (YouTube.com). “Gangnam Style” has been remade and parodied by hundreds of people all around the world. Psy’s popularity has crossed over from South Korea to many countries including the United States. He has granted interviews to the Today Show and the Ellen DeGeneres Show, danced “Gangnam Style” with Britney Spears, and become one of the most popular Halloween costumes of 2012. And through this buzz in the United States, one thing remains the same: the song is sung in Korean (not English). “Gangnam Style” is one of the many K-Pop (Korean Pop) songs in what Chinese journalists called the Korean wave (韓流), “a phenomenon that refers to the onslaught of South Korean entertainment in Asia and, more recently, in other parts of the world” (Valerio). Despite differences in language, Psy’s song is now a mainstay in popular (pop) culture in the United States and beyond. However, Psy’s “Gangnam Style” is definitely not the first K-Pop song to exist: groups like 2NE1 and BIGBANG are certainly popular in Korea, but they did not make as big of a splash as Psy’s hit. What was it that made “Gangnam Style” so popular? Why Psy? Why now? Is it Psy’s appearance? The dance associated with the song? The music itself? The lyrics? The splashy, fun music video? Or is it the catchy concept, “Dress classy and dance cheesy”? And what might be the influence of this song on K-Pop music in the US in the future? The purpose of this project is to explore the nature of popularity by examining a transnational flow of pop culture--a situation that requires the negotiation of different values, assumptions and tastes. What makes a popular artifact from one culture “cross over” to other cultures? What makes the artifact popular in the first place? Why are people drawn to artifacts from certain countries? Why do people seek alternatives from other cultures? What ideological, social, cultural, political, economic, and/or historical factors affect the popularity of an artifact in different countries? What makes one artifact internationally appealing while other artifacts from the same country do not gain the same kind of popularity? How does the success of one artifact open the door for other artifacts from the same country? Write a feature magazine article that analyzes a transnational cultural artifact: a song, music video, user-created video, movie, blog, book, fashion style, celebrity, etc. In preparation for this project, explore the criteria that help explain what makes a cultural artifact popular in one context and consider how the same criteria may or may not apply to another context. Then, identify a pop culture artifact. It may be something that ha ...

Is it ethical for companies to use unpaid interns if they know the.docx

priestmanmable

Is it ethical for companies to use unpaid interns if they know they will not have any jobs to offer at the end of the internships? It can be ethical IF the firm is up front in their providing and understanding to the intern. Listing the job duties and expectations. My daughter did an internship to assist with the restoration of President Eisenhower’s house, she received room and board. There was no false expectation of employment once the project was complete. She went on to add this internship to her resume and it paid off. The conservator she worked for is considered a visionary and highly respected. SO, her internship though it was unpaid, she received priceless training and development from it. This is an example of how an internship at that particular company may be a building block to the intern getting into a better opportunity. Now if the company has used smoke and mirrors and is leading the intern on, making them think there will be a job opportunity at the end of the internship: this is unethical practice. Is it ethical for companies to use unpaid interns if the unpaid internships replace paid jobs? Again this can be answered in a number different ways. Yes it can be ethical. If the company is going under and it is the only way it can survive, yes. If the company is phasing current employees out, say through their own leaving or retirement and will eventually have a staff of jus interns, I believe this can be ethical as well. As long as there is no strong arming of current works to leave. If it is just a means to save money and has replaced current workers with inters, then I say No it is not ethical.

Analytics for Musicians - Presentation to Chamber Music America - December 2n...

Marshall Sponder

This presentation covers the kind of data that can be collected and how it might be used to promote the local and online following of Classical and Jazz Musicians. In particular, we take a tour of some of the more exotic enhancements in Google Analytics combined with Geo-Location that I have become found of lately. The work in this course also draws on the work I do at Baruch College Zicklin School of Business, where I am a Lecturer Faculty - much of the work I present has been informed by students who helped to pull the data around certain of the slides. Finally, the need to develop the assessments also draws upon the Rutgers University Social Media for the Arts. This deck does a nice job of blending the thinking behind the teachings I've done in both places, and is a true synthesis.
