Toffler’s views of the future world were a sensation when his book was published in 1972. It sold over 6 million copies.

How do we view his predictions today?

Thanks to Chris Stocker and Susan Heath who have volunteered to be part of the Summer School 2022 team.
 

They can't do this alone! We need a further 4 members to step up to assist.

 

If you think you can help, please contact Nathan Feld, whose details are provided below.
 

Calling for expressions of interest from U3A Hawthorn members who play an electronic musical instrument and would like to get together on a regular basis to practise with other members. It is expected that within such a group there would be a diverse range of playing abilities and musical tastes, e.g. classical, jazz, ambient, techno. etc.

What defines an "electronic instrument"? In the broader sense, it is anything that requires an audio amplifier and speaker to produce sound. So we would include electronic keyboards, wind instruments (EWI), "analogue" modular synthesizers, electric guitars (pref. with add-on effects) and mobile computing devices (e.g. laptop, tablet) with music production software (DAW, sequencer, VST synth, etc). Beginners would be welcome.

Reply to the Course Coordinator [courses@u3ahawthorn.org.au] including your instrument type(s), music preferences and playing skill level. Also let us know if you would be willing to volunteer as "musical director" (tutor) of the group if it comes together.
