music/Maker with Tyler Kline Loose Leaf Transmissions

Today on music/Maker with Tyler Kline, Tyler meets up with hair stylist Anna Huffka on location at her hair studio, [the iki movement].
Anna Huffka is the owner and operator of [the iki movement], an all-inclusive hair studio based in Lexington, KY where they’ll pamper you in just about any way you can imagine, offering everything from hair sculpting - yes, sculpting, not cutting - to hair coloring, and lots other services to help you feel your best self.
As you can imagine, this episode is a bit of a departure from the usual fare you hear on music/Maker, but don’t worry - it’s all good stuff. Anna and Tyler cover a lot of ground in a short bit of time, like how - when in elementary school - she would help cut her grandma’s hair, the influence of her Japanese heritage on her creative practice and business, the differences between styling individuals in a salon versus styling models for a fashion show - and so much more.
You can check out Anna's work on her studio's Instagram page @theikimovement.
More information about [the iki movement] is on their website, https://www.theikimovement.com/.

In this conversation, Joshua and Tyler dig into all things music and sound design for video games through the lens of the work Joshua does in that space… but he also discuss how he views himself as a bit of a musical chameleon, and how he operates in the very different worlds of contemporary concert music and game music.

Today on music/Maker with Tyler Kline, Tyler is joined by composer and tubist Brett Copeland.
Dr. Brett Copeland is a tuba player, educator, composer, and music technologist who holds the position of Associate Adjunct Professor of Tuba and Euphonium at the University of Northern Iowa where he teaches Applied Lessons, Low Brass Techniques, directs the UNITUBA ensemble, and teaches a course on Electronic Composition. 
Brett's artistic endeavors extend beyond performance, as he recently co-authored The Creative Listener with other members of NewStream Brass, an innovative method book aimed at providing a resource for music educators to teach audiation and improvisation concepts effectively. Furthermore, his passion for composition shines through his acoustic and electro-acoustic works.
In this conversation, Brett and Tyler cover a lot of ground: Brett shares how he thinks about tuba with electronics and how that is different from how most tuba players might think of it; we reminisce about hanging out with friends at lunch in grad school, and how that’s impacted Brett’s musical thinking; how a composer might leverage AI to break out of their comfort zone; and what it’s like returning to his undergrad as a professor.

On today's episode of music/Maker with Tyler Kline, Tyler is joined by composer Andrew Noseworthy.
Andrew Noseworthy is a multidisciplinary artist whose music reflects upon the acceptance/rejection of “locality” while drawing from lived experiences of isolation within his hometown of Labrador West and the tight-knit arts community of St John's (Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada), along with the expansive post-genre scenes of New York City. His work addresses ideas of post-regional spaces and questions of accessibility for the musical voices within them.
In this conversation, Tyler asks Andrew about all of those points in his bio, which he discusses beautifully… but they also explore other topics related to Andrew's practice, such as his DIY spirit and alternative models of creation that are independent of institutional support, what sustainability and accessibility in a creative practice like composition might look like, and how music outside of the Western classical or contemporary classical repertoire impacts his work.
