Deaf Jam At The Nine Community Cinema

VIDEO [CC] - Deaf community responds about ASL short movie 'Deaf Jam' at the Nine Community Cinema.



On October 13, 2011, Nine Community Cinema in St. Louis Missouri held a public screening of "Deaf Jam," at the Missouri History Museum.



In Deaf Jam, Aneta Brodski seizes the day. She is a Deaf teen introduced to American Sign Language (ASL) Poetry, who then boldly enters the spoken word slam scene. In a wondrous twist, Aneta, an Israeli immigrant living in the Queens section of New York City, eventually meets Tahani, a hearing Palestinian slam poet.

The two women embark on a collaboration/performance duet creating a new form of slam poetry that speaks to both the hearing and the Deaf.



Nine Academy Community Producer, Marcos Chu recorded these two personal stories after the screening. You can learn more about the Nine Community Cinema film series at: http://www.ninenet.org/community-cinema

After a year away from this wonderful YouTube community, I'm back with a new video and a new direction. Question: Are you with me? And if not, why? And if so, why? Video referenced: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TPAO-lZ4_hU



Related Video: Re: A Personal Appeal From ASL Songsigner CaptainValor.

This didn't come out completely as I planned, but I guess the gist of my message is there. I just think it's important to remember that you're 'famous' because of ASL... and now you are not including the Deaf community in your new endeavors at all.



It seems sort of ironic that by wanting to become a part of the YouTube community, you are saying goodbye to another one (maybe not personally, but publicly as a YouTube figure). As a hearing person, I can't speak for Deaf people, but I think this is the reason why they're sometimes hesitant about hearing people entering/representing their community. Maybe you could try to do some vlogs about Deaf related things, or include them somehow.



Allyballybabe has something in her YouTube "about me" that I've always liked: "one more thing i am very concerned about. though ASL is extremely beautiful and interesting, it is important to remember WHERE and WHO ASL came from... the Deaf. " Just some thoughts.



Related Video: Thoughts, Responses, and a Challenge!

Wow! What a response. Just couldn't wait another week to follow-up. In this video I respond to some of these responses, give some more detailed thoughts on my work and Deaf community, and challenge you all to our first creative collaboration!



QUESTION: What would you like me to call you, my community?



CHALLENGE: Perform "Party in the USA" in sign language and video respond to this video or my original ASL video. You can start from my gloss, but I encourage your too add your own unique spin! Two weeks from now I'll cut your performances together into a collage with each line from a different person.

Music Video By Deaf Children On The ABC News

VIDEO: Deaf children don’t hear music the way many of us do, but perhaps they hear it the way it’s supposed to be heard: through the whole body.



HIGHLAND, MI - Ten-year-old Noah Rangel of Lake Orion is Deaf, but that didn’t stop him from feeling the pulse of the White Stripes’ song “We’re Going to be Friends” when he signed the lyrics in a new music video. “Instead of standing and talking and hearing the music like that, we can feel the music,” signed Noah, using American Sign Language. “We just stand and sign the song instead. So it’s really not that much different.”

The Deaf Professional Arts Network, also known as D-Pan, coordinated the music video this summer, shooting it in Bloomfield Hills and featuring children who are either Deaf or Hard-of-Hearing.



Rangel’s friend, Morgan Nimmo, also appeared in the video, which has gone viral. “I did good!” said seven-year old Morgan during an interview at her home in Highland. “I thought I was going to do bad, but I was great. I was proud of myself.” With more than 258,000 hits on YouTube.com in just a week and a half, she certainly has something to be proud of.

White Stripes "We're Going To Be Friends" Produced by D-PAN, the Deaf Professional Arts Network. American Sign Language Direction by Ronald Dans. Directed by Nicholas Hill of Lucky Airlines. Visit www.D-PAN.org for more informations.

lyrics: Fall is here, hear the yell back to school, ring the bell brand new shoes, walking blues climb the fence, books and pens I can tell that we're going to be friends.



Walk with me, Suzy Lee through the park and by the tree we will rest upon the ground and look at all the bugs we found then safely walk to school without a sound.



Well here we are, no one else we walked to school all by ourselves there's dirt on our uniforms from chasing all the ants and worms we clean up and now its time to learn.



Numbers, letters, learn to spell nouns, and books, and show and tell at playtime we will throw the ball back to class, through the hall teacher marks our height against the wall.



And we don't notice any time pass we don't notice anything we sit side by side in every class teacher thinks that I sound funny but she likes the way you sing.



Tonight I'll dream while I'm in bed when silly thoughts go through my head about the bugs and alphabet and when I wake tomorrow I'll bet that you and I will walk together again cause I can tell that we're going to be friends.
