 * Mikey: Cameron Carpenter playing Sousa's [|Stars & Stripes Forever]on the Marshall & Ogeltree digital computer organ on Wall Street. The church's former pipe organ was severely damaged when the World Trade Centers came down. • I would use this in class to discuss recent history, musicianship and coordination, and to evaluate the performance and discuss what aspects of this performance add to/take away from its entertainment value. One can also contrast this with the video: [|Piano With Balls].
 * Mikey: [|Audacity]--Free Digital Audio (Recording sound) for your laptop. See the tech guy to get it installed on your computer or to show you how you can install it yourself.
 * Mikey: [|Max Digital Audio File Converter]--Converts between many file formats to save space on your computer or for easily transferring files. Will convert batch groups of files.
