Hi Susan,
It would be lovely to see you. Let's see if we can get together.
Scott
PS
Am curious too regarding World Univ & Sch and libraries in Pennsylvania, for matriculating students, and wiki Universitians, to explore how collaborations might work.
While WUaS is planning, brainstorming-wise, to code for all 7.8 billion people on planet, - http://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/search/label/You%20at%20WUaS?m=0 - in 200 countries, our matriculating undergraduates in Pennsylvania, and esp the states in the USA with Carnegie Libraries ... an amazing public library system .. would benefit much from online digital resources, possibly as early as this autumn. Looking forward to seeing you!
Susan,
It looks like Carnegie Libraries are not in Alaska and Delaware -https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Carnegie_libraries_in_the_United_States - and maybe WUaS can help! Just blogged about reaching out to Alaska's department of education or high school college counselors, here - http://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2021/06/red-alder-reed-pics-stanford-law-codex.html - a few days ago, having come in contact with a Reed College friend from Alaska who mailed the food boxes along my 1st 3.5 month hike on the Pacific Crest Trail in California and Oregon in 1980 :)

to me, Jane, Sandy, Susan
I'm guessing there weren't many English-speakers in Alaska at the time Andrew was shelling out for library buildings*. I am happy to report that it looks like there are plenty of independent libraries out there now!

Susan,
I bet the independent library in
Whale Pass, Alaska - Whale Pass Community Library
- has grown a lot bigger in the past year, and that Delewarans, in that tiny state near PA, have developed work-arounds to their major dearth of Carnegie Public Libraries, also thanks to the internet. That website has funny Alaska ads too :) and you can begin to visit Whale Pass, Alaska in Street View with a Google Search -it's on a island (getting to be northern BC) - but you can't go in its library virtually yet, since it doesn't seem to exist in Google Street View yet (since we haven't added it ... Or a new virtual Carnegie Library there either :)
The second time I hiked the Pacific Crest Trail in 1982, south from Canada through the state of Washington, I first did an off trail back country hike on top of the Olympic range, on Washington state's Olympic peninsula with a friend, then took a ferry to Vancouver island, in Canada, then over to Vancouver, and then hitchhiked east100 miles to Manning Park still in Canada where I started hiking south into WA through the incredible north Cascades :) ... Carnegie Libraries in back country on smartphones for World Universitian student thru-hikers !
Meeting for coffee in Pittsburgh regarding ... virtual Carnegie Libraries and Museums - for traveling and movement too - since World Univ & Sch is planning ALL Libraries and ALL Museums, in all 7139 known living languages EVER, extinct languages too esp, - and so in a digital MASK, or GLASSES, you can walk down the aisles or stacks of books, or through miles of the Louvre, for the movement benefits of walking (whether on an elliptical machine, or outside your house on a walk in a lovely secluded wooded area :)

I don't have machine learning down, or related libraries, to be able to teach a system how to learn how to join all the dots or URLs ... As we add new open online Carnegie Libraries, or parts of them like a stack or a PDF of a book, like in Whale Pass, Alaska, but which doesn't YET have any Carnegie libraries :)
Think Google Street View with time slider to be able to walk down the stacks in 1820 of the Library of Congress and read from Thomas Jefferson's books ... Then time slide back to the library of Alexandria in 2075 before present, 27 years before it was burned - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Library_of_Alexandria - and even so we can all (wiki) aggregate evidence from different sources about what it was like, digitally, in a realistic virtual earth for libraries, with time slider ...

online Scottish Small Piping lessons - Looking forward to PM Stuart Liddell's "Tuning your Bagpipes'" seminar from Scotland ~ am seeking nevertheless somehow to learn interactively too - and with piping - in a way informed say by the vision of Gordon Duncan riffing with AC / DC and you 'riffing' or playing Thunderstruck so extraordinarily - and playing with the Allman Bros in '73 at Cow Palace improvisationally (for learning)
Dear Stuart,
Greetings from the SF Bay Area. Looking forward to your tuning seminar from Scotland -
https://www.stuartliddell.com/book-sessions - on Friday the 25th, when I'm planning to be in Pittsburgh, PA. When I booked the seminar, I paid for 2 lessons (and didn't receive the same automatic email confirmation as the previous 2 times), so am hoping to have another lesson with you perhaps in the near future. How would early July work for you? (I begin driving east across the US on Sunday June 20th). Was it ok to book two lessons of different kinds at the same time?
I also added our two lessons,
W. June 2, 2021 lesson video & blog post
Th. May 13, 2021 lesson video & blog post
- and regarding my blog posts about these, to these two wiki 'schools' at World University & School, for your reference.
Looking forward to the tuning seminar - and with my Scottish Small Pipes' especially. Am learning much from the video recordings of your teaching and thinking, and appreciatively ... and am seeking further to explore ways to make learning the bagpipes somehow remarkably enjoyable interactively or socially - which I'm finding our 2 conversations to be. The process of listening and feeling is wonderful as a focus, with taking the music directly from you or a teacher - and memorizing - makes so much sense, and your playing Ceol Beag or Light Music is wonderfully inspiring in these regards; am seeking nevertheless somehow to learn interactively too - and with piping - in a way informed say by the vision of Gordon Duncan riffing with AC / DC and you 'riffing' or playing Thunderstruck so extraordinarily - and playing with the Allman Bros in '73 at Cow Palace improvisationally (for learning) ...and even newly with riffing with PIobaireachd melodies and note durations ... and even with machine learning playing music with the same 'energy' as this concert's synergies (for me and many. Thank you.
Best wishes,
Scott

Hi Taylor,
Thanks for your email. Liking Stuart's use of singing too for piping, and learning with feeling ... now how to elicit the inspiration to sing piping music freely, I wonder. I'm familiar with Patrick McLaurin's website with the impressive "An Encyclopedia of Tunes for the Great Highland Bagpipe," Compiled by Robert L. Pekaar, 5th Edition
a far-reaching compendium of piping tunes (
https://www.patrickmclaurin.com/tunedatabase/) ... and am curious how these in a database could be algorithmically developed for 'excellent tunes' - for me read most lyrical, or most melodic, - and Stuart in the Valley of the Deer revue touches on 'excellent tunes' too -
https://youtu.be/xVAVE5i_10Q - and much else as well.
I also added our two lessons, and regarding my blog posts about these, to these two wiki 'schools' at World University & School, for your reference.
(see, too, how I've referenced them below)
Am learning much from the video recordings of Stuart's teaching and thinking, and appreciatively ... and am seeking further to explore ways to make learning the bagpipes somehow remarkably enjoyable interactively or socially - which I'm finding our 2 conversations to be. The process of listening and feeling is wonderful as a focus, with taking the music directly from Stuart or a teacher (Donald MacLeod tutorials for Piobaireachd, for example - but also kind of 'robotic' shall I write?) - and memorizing (which Stuart suggests for feeling-reasons, I think, as you may have watched). So much of what Stuart teaches makes so much sense, and his playing Ceol Beag or Light Music is wonderfully inspiring in these regards for me; am seeking nevertheless somehow to learn interactively too - and with piping - in a way informed say by the vision of Gordon Duncan riffing with AC / DC and Stuart 'riffing' or playing Gordon Duncan's "Thunderstruck' tune so extraordinarily - and for me, envisioning-wise, by playing with the Allman Bros in '73 at Cow Palace improvisationally (for learning too) ... and even newly with riffing with PIobaireachd melodies and note durations ... and even with machine learning playing music with the same 'energy' with this concert and this concert's synergies (for me and many).
But feeling-wise with Piobaireachd, I come back to John D. Burgess's one or two Piobaireachds online I know of, in particular, regarding beauty, and learning directly from the music, without intermediaries, like sheet music (so memorizing esp), ... and his 'heavy' non-mensurality in these regards ... and after learning from PM Donald MacLeod's lyrical Piobaireachd tutorials, how to learn directly from John D. Burgess's playing, and yet interactively even, enjoyably and socially somehow ... and take Piobaireachd to new new heights (apart from playing Piobaireachd with machine learning Allman Bros' in '73) ? I'll explore this further with Stuart in subsequent conversations, I'd think :)
Open Band got a bit together the other evening at Patti's, and while friend Barbara Salisbury was at home and videoconferencing with us all via a MacBook on Patti's chair in her backyard, and she could play her fiddle with all of us for herself (but not together with us due to lag or latency), we still aren't playing in real real time remotely - which could be great for you, if interested, in the autumn, and if you'd be awake from 11pm - 1pm, or possibly 10pm -midnight, cine the Blue and Pink books and the other sheet music can be great for learning Scottish Small Piping further.
Am going to be arriving in Pittsburgh, as I drive east across the country, on Thursday, June 24th, and may well be doing something with my mother at 7pm in east coast time that evening - so a lesson wouldn't work then for me. I'm not sure how my internet signal will be during July in southeast Massachusetts, so perhaps we can be in touch about a lesson in the 2nd half of July online, after you return from your vacation.
Cheers,
