NEW YORK, NY, October 12, 2010 (Press-News.org) Musicians struggle to differentiate themselves in the digital age. Reputable outlets to get seen have disappeared. Audiences see less variety in new music. To address these issues, Flatiron Productions has produced a suite of music-directed outlets devised to "Give the Unsigned Music Artist a Chance" and fill a gaping hole in the music industry that impedes most talent from gaining recognition and success.
The launch of the Showcase One website (www.showcaseone.com) is the first phase of a multiplatform plan designed to assist the unsigned artist and offer the public something different without having to sift through the thousands of unchecked musicians whose music exists on other sites.
www.showcaseone.com not only presents the pilot TV show (hosted by Jeanille Bonterre, whose credits include work at both MTV Networks and BET), but also audition tapes that feature performances supported with interviews that delve into the personalities behind the music.
Auditions are posted on the site for voting by fans and music enthusiasts who instantly become virtual A&R representatives (Artist and Repertoire - talent evaluators for the music industry). Winning artists will be featured on the next episode of the TV show, get to record songs in the renowned Smash Recording Studios, and have a full music video produced for them. And every musician invited to audition gets great exposure with the highest quality HD footage, superior sound, and outstanding direction of their auditions.
The combination of The Showcase One Show (currently in production), audition tapes, and industry inside info-shoots create an entertainment destination with unlimited potential. The Showcase One site is the start of a larger project by Flatiron Productions with releases of more music-based entertainment planned through the end of 2010 and into the New Year. Check out hot performances and intriguing interviews at www.showcaseone.com. Find Your Sound!
Flatiron Productions, in association with Smash Studios (one of New York City's most famous music facilities) and SLM Production Group, was formed in 2010. Partners Clay Sheff, Drew Wilson and Seth Melnick's extensive experience in the Music, TV and Film make Flatiron Productions a formidable entertainment production company.

Dogs' anxiety reflects a 'pessimistic' mood
2010-10-11
Many dogs become distressed when left home alone, and they show it by barking, destroying things, or toileting indoors. Now, a new study reported in the October 12th issue of Current Biology, a Cell Press publication, suggests that this kind of separation anxiety occurs most often in dogs that also show "pessimistic"-like behavior.
"We know that people's emotional states affect their judgments; happy people are more likely to judge an ambiguous situation positively," said Mike Mendl of the University of Bristol. "Now it seems that this may also apply to dogs; dogs that ...
Dogs may be pessimistic too
2010-10-11
A study has gained new insight into the minds of dogs, discovering that those that are anxious when left alone also tend to show 'pessimistic' like behaviour.
The research by academics at the University of Bristol, and funded by the RSPCA is published in Current Biology tomorrow (12 October). The study provides an important insight into dogs' emotions, and enhances our understanding of why behavioural responses to separation occur.
Professor Mike Mendl, Head of the Animal Welfare and Behaviour research group at Bristol University's School of Clinical Veterinary Science, ...
Intriguing viral link to intestinal cancer in mice
2010-10-11
More than 50% of adults in the United States test positive for human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) infection. For most people, infection produces no symptoms and results in the virus persisting in the body for a long time. HCMV infects many cell types in the body including the cells that line the intestines (IECs). New research, led by Sergio Lira, at Mount Sinai School of Medicine, New York, shows that mice engineered to express the HCMV protein US28 in IECs develop intestinal tumors as they age. These mice also develop more tumors than normal mice in a model of inflammation-induced ...

UF research provides new understanding of bizarre extinct mammal
2010-10-11
GAINESVILLE, Fla. --- University of Florida researchers presenting new fossil evidence of an exceptionally well-preserved 55-million-year-old North American mammal have found it shares a common ancestor with rodents and primates, including humans.
The study, scheduled to appear in the Oct. 11 online edition of the Zoological Journal of the Linnean Society, describes the cranial anatomy of the extinct mammal, Labidolemur kayi. High resolution CT scans of the specimens allowed researchers to study minute details in the skull, including bone structures smaller than one-tenth ...
Swimming microorganisms stir things up, and the LHC takes over
2010-10-11
Two separate research groups are reporting groundbreaking measurements of the fluid flow that surrounds freely swimming microorganisms. Experiments involving two common types of microbes reveal the ways that one creature's motion can affect its neighbors, which in turn can lead to collective motions of microorganism swarms. In addition, the research is helping to clarify how the motions of microscopic swimmers produces large scale stirring that distributes nutrients, oxygen and chemicals in lakes and oceans. A pair of papers describing the experiments will appear in the ...

Research discovers how the deaf have super vision
2010-10-11
Deaf or blind people often report enhanced abilities in their remaining senses, but up until now, no one has explained how and why that could be. Researchers at The University of Western Ontario, led by Stephen Lomber of The Centre for Brain and Mind have discovered there is a causal link between enhanced visual abilities and reorganization of the part of the brain that usually handles auditory input in congenitally deaf cats. The findings, published online in Nature Neuroscience, provide insight into the plasticity that may occur in the brains of deaf people.

Scripps Research study challenges conventional theory of modern drug design
2010-10-11
JUPITER, Fl, October 7, 2010 – Scientists from The Scripps Research Institute have uncovered new evidence that challenges the current theory about a process key to the way modern drugs are designed and how they work in the human body.
The new study was published October 10, 2010 in an advance, online edition of the journal Nature Chemical Biology.
Currently, the theory about ligands – compounds that bind to proteins and trigger a specific biological action – and how they bind to proteins runs along the lines of a one person-one vote paradigm. Ligands are considered ...
