Music and More at "The Muck"
Tuesday May 07, 2019
Tuesday May 07, 2019
Pleased to have Farrell Hirsch, the Chief Executive Officer of Fullerton's beloved Muckenthaler Cultural Museum (affectionately known as "The Muck") in to discuss all that's going on in at one of Orange County's overlooked treasures. Commissioned at an original cost of $35,000, the Muckenthaler home was built by Walter and Adella Muckenthaler in 1924 atop a hill in Fullerton. The 18-room, 8.5-acres mansion was donated to the city in 1965 by Harold Muckenthaler, who wished to see his childhood home used as a cultural center for the public. Known as popular site for weddings and parties, not everyone knows about it's many arts programs and exhibits as well. Nor the many music concerts held in its outdoor amphitheater, like the upcoming performance by legendary band leader Doc Severinsen on May 9. And the six Thursday night concerts that make up their annual JAZZ FESTIVAL May 16-June 20th. So quit "mucking around" and make your way to www.TheMuck.org to learn more. And check out their 25th annual Motor Car Festival as well May 18 and 19th. For whether it's "cool" or "hot", it's probably happening at Fullerton's Muckenthaller Cultural Museum...

Massive Music Industry Show Returns to Anaheim
Tuesday Jan 22, 2019
Tuesday Jan 22, 2019
The massive music industry show known as NAMM (for "National Association of Music Merchandisers") returns to take over the entire Anaheim Convention Center this week, Thursday, Jan. 24-Sunday, Jan. 27 as all the leading manufacturers of guitars, drums and other musical instruments make their way to Orange County for this annual gathering of the clan. More than just another trade show, it's a musical circus with performances and appearances by many of the leading rock and roll, hip hop and country artists (past and present), along with all the people who work behind the scenes to record their music and put on their performances.
And in a world where anyone can now make professional recordings in their own home or garage and push that music out to the world thru sites like Soundcloud and Social Media, that industry has never been bigger or more diverse. Take for example our guest from MUSIC.iLUV, a new app that allows you to perform along with professional tracks or tracks you've recorded, collaborate with other musicians around the world and then share that new creation instantly thru social media. The app even has built in features to help improve the sound and make anyone an instant musician. "An augmented reality social musical app for future artists to create, practice and perform music" in a way never seen before.
The Music.iLuv app is backed by research done at Harvard University and the University of Southern California on what motivates digital-age kids, how they learn and behave, and what learning processes they prefer and grew out of an original grant by the US National Science Foundation.
Music.iLuv was developed with the expertise of the following esteemed advisors: Robert Cutietta, Professor of Music and Dean of the School of Music and Dance, University of Southern California in Los Angeles, and author of the book, "How to Raise Musical Kids." Dr Umida Avloni, Ph.D. from Uzbek Institute of Arts (USSR). Her expertise is in piano, music theory and composition; Dr Sven Dickinson, Professor and past Chair of the Department of Computer Science at the University of Toronto in Toronto, Canada; and Dr. Sam Heidari, CEO of Quantenna Communications, who is a widely-recognized leader in electrical engineering technology. He serves as an adviser on both business and technology development for the Music.iLuv app. He also provides proven expertise in pitch detection.
Music.iLuv makes it's debut at this year's fascinating NAMM SHOW along with countless other apps, instruments and recording technology. Tune it to hear more!

There is a united way here in the OC to tackle homelessness and it's being led by the actual UNITED WAY of Orange County. With a wide assortment of public and private partners in business, churches, cities and community groups, their goal is to solve this persistent problem once and for all (or at least make a meaningful dent in the size and suffering of this persistent population).
We recently invited United Way-OC's new President and CEO Susan Parks into our studios to talk about their ambitious initiative (one of the few we can think of that unites people from all across the different political and economic spectrums of this county) as part of our OC SPOTLIGHT series of weekly public affairs programming, hosted by Claudia Shambaugh...longtime KUCI host and our newest Public Affairs Director here at OC Talk Radio (Orange County's only community radio station).
