Hardly Strictly Bluegrass (free annual festival), www.hardlystrictlybluegrass.com/2018/.
Country: United States. Style: Americana.
Lineup: Kieran Kane (v/g/banjo/octave mandolin), Rayna Gellert(v/fiddle/g).
Kieran Kane is from Queens, NY and started out in the O'Kanes in the 1980s. Rayna Gellert is from Elkhart, IN and first came to public notice in the band Uncle Earl in the 2000s. They first met when both were performing at the 2015 HSB. This has led to them recording an album together. I had seen Kane once before, back in 1995 with Kevin Welch, but these were my first photos of him. I fiert saw Gellert in 2007 with Uncle Earl and have taken photos of her more recently with her Trio and with Abigail Washburn (www.flickr.com/photos/kmlivemusic/tags/raynagellert,-kier...).

Here you get a view of the 6M's under-slung neck octave mechanism from the rear.
Note where the arm on the body's octave keywork rises up at a 90 degree angle to the bar at the bottom of the neck's octave key. On most horns when you press the body's octave key touch, that vertical arm moves in the opposite direction, away from the horn's body. On the 6M, when you push down the octave key, that arm moves forward towards the horn's body. Given that the octave keywork had to operate the body's octave pip as well, this caused Conn to design a unique and ingenious mechanism for the neck octave notes.

If you're used to the old-style Conn alto sax neck with the Microtuner, this neck looks a little wrong on the horn; too long. It did change the horn's balance a bit, I found it forced me into a slightly less comfortable posture when standing than the old neck had.
This and the previous pics give a good sideways view of the 6M's oddball under-slung neck octave mechanism. Note where the arm on the body's octave keywork rises up at a 90 degree angle to the bar at the bottom of the neck's octave key. On most horns when you press the body's octave key touch, that vertical arm moves in the opposite direction, away from the horn's body.

Celtic Connections Festival, www.celticconnections.com/.
Country: Britain - Scotland. Style: Traditional Scottish Folk.
Lineup: Malin Lewis (scottish smallpipes), Jarlath Henderson (uilleann pipes/low whistle), .Ali Hutton (g), and guest: Shona Mooney (fiddle).
Malin Lewis from the Isle of Skye is just 20 and is studying piping on the degree course at the Royal Conservatoire. They started making his own instruments aged 14 and plays a Smallpipes with a Lindsay System Chanter (which extends the range of the instrument to two octaves). Lewis started performing with Jarlath Henderson and Ali Hutton last year and for this concert Shona Mooney was added. I have photographed Henderson, Hutton and Mooney with other groups (to view click on the musicians name in my tags)

Octave Chanute was one of America’s early aviation pioneers, with his first hang glider designs being test flown in 1896. Two years previously he had published ‘Progress in Flying Machines’ which included all the world’s aviation pioneers and would later be used as a reference by the Wright Brothers.
This original glider was purchased from Octave Chanute himself at the 1904 World’s Fair in St Louis.
Donated to the museum here in 1925, it is on display in the Pioneers Hall. Unfortunately, the background is trying its best to camouflage it!

This Telematic is like a new girlfriend that makes me want to see the whole world through her eyes. I've been pulling out all kinds of stuff today. Including this.
This is a cheap little Danelectro French Toast pedal. Brand new I think it cost me $27. It's one of their mini-pedals. See the clear guard on there? Originally these pedals came without those and people were knocking those tiny little knobs and killing the tiny little pots their attached to, so they started putting those clear plastic guards on 'em. So you know it isn't built all that sturdy.
The thing is, these sound great. They're more or less a clone of the old Foxx Tone Machine and they're just great at getting that kind of nasty octave fuzz sound. My Telematic sounds amazing through this pedal.

The Octave Spinet (or Octave Virginal or Ottavino) is a portable version of the Italian Spinet, widely used in private homes in the 17th and 18th centuries to accompany singing. It was pitched an octave higher than the normal, and was consequently much smaller. Mostly triangular in shape, some are rectangular.
This instrument was made in Italy around 1600. The shape is triangular. The inside lid is painted with the tale of Arion and the Dolphin.
Octave Spinets/Virginals are assigned the number 314.122-4-8 in the Hornbostel-Sachs classification of musical instruments ( en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hornbostel-Sachs ), indicating:
3 = Chordophone. Instruments where the sound is primarily produced by the vibration of a string or strings that are stretched between fixed points.
31 = Simple Chordophones. Instruments which are in essence simply a string or strings and a string bearer
314 = Board Zither. Instrument uses a string bearer that is shaped like a board, or is the ground.
314.1 = Instrument with strings parallel to the string bearer.
314.12 = Instrument has a resonator.
314.122 = Box Zither. Instrument has a resonator made from slats.
314.122-6-8 = Strings are caused to vibrate by plectrum and keyboard.

The pad on this key is for sealing the octave vent on the body tube. It is in fact a "Snap-On" pad, though without a resonator. Notice the slightly domed brass in the center of the cup. That is the snap, which was sewn into the bottom of the pad. There's a spud for the snap inside the cup, which you can see through the hole in the brass dome. Here the pad's top has been torn off - that's the felt from the pad next to the key; you can see a bit of the leather that covered it underneath the felt. To install the pad you just snapped it in place like an ordinary button snap you might find on a shirt.
Today you can buy new metal-backed pads designed for Buescher's "Snap-On" pad system, but apparently nobody makes these little octave vent pads anymore, so unless I can find some "New Old Stock" pads with the snap, I'll probably have to remove the spud in the cup so a regular pad will fit properly.
Example of the use of the G'MIC 'Enhancement/Octave sharpening' on a portion of a color image. Perhaps a bit too much, but it illustrates the idea.

This series of photos was taken at the Octave Chanute Aerospace Museum in Rantoul, Illinois. I chose to take pictures of fragments of the planes because trying to fit an entire plane into the frame of a camera is pretty hard, especially within the confines of a crowded hangar.
The museum was wonderful! It is housed in what used to be the Chanute Air Force base, which was operational from 1917 to 1993. There are over 40 planes there, as well as numerous flight simulators (nonfunctional, but still cool to see), an exhibit highlighting the 99th Pursuit Squadron (the first active unit of the Tuskegee Airmen), and four Minuteman ICBM maintenance training silos. In fact, until its decommission in 1993, the Air Force used Chanute for all of its Minuteman missile maintenance training. There was a lot of other stuff that I'm forgetting, but if you get a chance, go visit, it's absolutely worth your time.
Tthe Octave Cat was manufactured between the late seventies and early eighties. It is an all Analog Syntesizer. It is somewhere between the better known Mini-Moog and the similar Arp Odysey. Both DEVO, and OMD allegedly used them in the day. Arp went to court against the Octave. Octave later adopted the name Voyetra.

Calvin Borel piloted Lady Joanne (#7) to victory in Saturday's Grade 1 Alabama Stakes at Saratoga; as he rode her back to celebrate his victory, he saw that the finish was subject to a stewards' inquiry.
According to Daily Racing Form:
"Lady Joanne had to withstand a stewards' inquiry into the stretch run when it appeared that she shut off Octave in deep stretch. The stewards ruled that John Velazquez, the rider of Octave, never stopped riding his filly, and thus there was no need to disqualify the winner."
