00:00:19,099 --> 00:00:16,340
historic events symbols that captured

2
00:00:21,890 --> 00:00:19,109
the energy emotional drama of America's

3
00:00:25,519 --> 00:00:21,900
aeronautics and space program had been

4
00:00:27,170 --> 00:00:25,529
the essence of 26 years of art generated

5
00:00:30,550 --> 00:00:27,180
by artists who have had an opportunity

6
00:00:33,380 --> 00:00:30,560
to experience these events Thursday

7
00:00:35,510 --> 00:00:33,390
NASA's art program continued this

8
00:00:37,460 --> 00:00:35,520
tradition recently by commissioning a

9
00:00:39,980 --> 00:00:37,470
music

10
00:00:42,620 --> 00:00:39,990
and several other artists their

11
00:00:48,090 --> 00:00:42,630
assignment document the return to flight

12
00:00:54,130 --> 00:00:51,520
artists sketched photographed and even

13
00:00:56,860 --> 00:00:54,140
sampled sounds during the launch and

14
00:00:59,350 --> 00:00:56,870
landing of shuttle Discovery collecting

15
00:01:01,570 --> 00:00:59,360
ideas for what later became detailed

16
00:01:07,780 --> 00:01:01,580
brush strokes for illustrator wendell

17
00:01:10,810 --> 00:01:07,790

michael comedian in all six artists

20
00:01:19,749 --> 00:01:17,420
steeped in various traditions took in

21
00:01:22,510 --> 00:01:19,759
the shuttle experience and created

22
00:01:26,710 --> 00:01:22,520
images that depict america's return to

23
00:01:29,170 --> 00:01:26,720
space the seventh artist Jane IRA

24
00:01:36,100 --> 00:01:29,180
bloomin captured her impressions in

00:01:36,980 --> 00:01:36,110
music Jane is a new york-based soprano

sax

27

Stan composure and has been a space

28
00:01:45,109 --> 00:01:42,420
enthusiasts for many years she enjoys

29
00:01:48,740 --> 00:01:45,119
writing music about events that visually

30
00:01:51,289 --> 00:01:48,750
inspire and challenger how could I I

31
00:01:54,080 --> 00:01:51,299
communicate the feeling without pointing

32
00:01:55,999 --> 00:01:54,090
to it without actually saying here's

33
00:01:58,010 --> 00:01:56,009
what a launch sounds like how can I make

34
00:02:00,679 --> 00:01:58,020
people feel what you feel like when you

35
00:02:03,560 --> 00:02:00,689
hear hear it as part of the process

36
00:02:06,770 --> 00:02:03,570
James spent time rehearsing ideas with

37
00:02:08,210 --> 00:02:06,780
fellow artists in New York early on Jim

38
00:02:09,889 --> 00:02:08,220
realized that she didn't want to

39
00:02:12,979 --> 00:02:09,899
approach the music as a floor

40
00:02:16,970 --> 00:02:12,989
synthesizer school instead she found

41
00:02:20,180 --> 00:02:16,980
other forms of expression I think it's a

42
00:02:23,720 --> 00:02:20,190
greater challenge to find new sounds and

43
00:02:27,530 --> 00:02:23,730
to find even new new uses of live

44
00:02:30,289 --> 00:02:27,540
electronics impelled by the players and

45
00:02:32,420 --> 00:02:30,299
held by the people because I started to

46
00:02:34,039 --> 00:02:32,430
see when they when the musicians got

47
00:02:37,250 --> 00:02:34,049
involved in experimenting with this

48
00:02:38,930 --> 00:02:37,260
docker like spinning idea suddenly the

49
00:02:42,380 --> 00:02:38,940
music took on a life of its own because

50
00:02:45,259 --> 00:02:42,390
the musicians embrace it and made it

51
00:02:46,849 --> 00:02:45,269
come alive and in jazz we say it though

52
00:02:52,240 --> 00:02:46,859
the you know the bandstand starts to

53
00:02:58,030 --> 00:02:55,090
Jane spent hours riding in her studio

54
00:03:00,820 --> 00:02:58,040
preparing for a live concert at NASA's

55
00:03:03,110 --> 00:03:00,830
Kennedy Space Center floor it was

56
00:03:05,180 --> 00:03:03,120
performed exactly one

57
00:03:10,390 --> 00:03:05,190
the space shuttles going to try and

58
00:03:17,059 --> 00:03:14,809
there's a new sites inside wine which

59
00:03:19,780 --> 00:03:17,069
are
