The Rijke’s tube turns heat into sound by creating a self- amplifying standing wave. It’s not only entertaining, but it’s an excellent example of resonance, oscillation, and amplitude. There’s also the Rubens’ tube that has a stand- ing wave flame tube making it look like a giant birthday cake that shows the relation- ship between sound waves and sound pressure. If you’ve been to science museums you may have seen a mesmerizing pendulum wave demonstration with balls swinging back and forth as if they were one entity that changes. 801 Classes & Training A D V E R T I S E H E R E !

AMERICANA: Instructors once were students in Sisters program Continued from page 3 now, through teaching, she is able to validate students’ experiences and songs as art and help them to find the value in truly listening. “The tone is set at the beginning: Everyone cares, everyone is going to treat each other with compassion, respect and love,” said Curtis. She feels like she comes back here and is with “her people.” Curtis is now exploring what she is going to next in her musical career. She is working in Portland as a lob- byist with the Oregon legis- lature. She has been playing house concerts in and around Portland as a solo act and plans to continue on with her work and songwriting. Smith has come back over the years to attend as well as instruct at camp. “It always feels like going home, to the best part of home,” said Smith of coming back for camp. It wasn’t long ago that Smith was a student and he notices how much the academy has progressed and how different camp is every year. Smith noted that, as a student he received support from the Americana Project and the community to play music, and he saw that he had “permission” to express him- self. He wants youth here to have that same permission to explore and think about life differently. “I, and all the instructors get just as much out camp as the students,” Smith said. He noted that it brings them back to center and refreshes them, just as much as the students. The instruc- tors are all inspired by the stu- dents’ work and the program. “I try to help students learn how their own brain works and how to work out- side the regular norms and try to figure out what those are in your own head, and how to rephrase things and to find language or tactics for creating art specific to that person,” Slater said. “That comes from the place of the Americana Project giving me permission to do that work.” Smith now is living and working in Portland. He has been working with Oregon State Parks and the Oregon Coast Visitors Association on a concept album for the 50th anniversary of the Oregon Beach Bill, which made all the Oregon beaches public prop- erty. He’s been living in state park cabins in residency for the past two months and has been writing about the coast and what it means to him. “It’s a really meaning- ful place for me, especially when it’s storming,” he said. “I love it, and I’ve been in my own space and trying to write about this environmental bill, and also about the special space.” The Weather Machine and Smith have been recording his songs and the album is expected to come out this fall. The Weather Machine will be playing as part of the Mt. Bachelor Apres Ski Bash on Friday, March 17, along- side the Moon Mountain Ramblers. The event is at Crow’s Feet Commons, 875 NW Brooks St. in downtown Bend at 6 p.m. The music is free and open to all ages. CUSTOM HOMES • RESIDENTIAL BUILDING PROJECTS John P.
