Award Winning Composer and Pianist Karen Salicath Jamali Releases Her New Album Sounds of Angels

New York, NY, Dec 19, 2020 -- Award-winning composer, pianist, and professional American artist Karen Salicath Jamali recently came out with her new album, Sound of Angel, a compilation of 14 tracks that redefine contemporary classical verses in a beautiful course of cascading melodies.

The new album, Sound of Angel was made in collaboration with the label Orpheus Classical. The album is written, composed, and performed by the artist herself and brims with clarity and musical glory of contemporary classical music’s extensive coverage. The album is recorded on a Steinway grand that resonates a streaming flow of tranquility and gratification. Songs from the album like ‘Capriccio’, ‘In Water’, ‘Praise’, ‘Before’, and ‘Omni’ promote a sense of psychological and soulful relaxation through their acoustic riffs and arrangements. The audience is carried into the transcendence of hope and inspiration with the album acting as a medium of closure for all.

Karen Salicath Jamali’s piano compositions are meditative that lingers in one’s creative space till the end of time. She creates a certain dreamscape through her melodic themes that range between the absolutes of musical and creative versatility. The artist’s musical stream is a plunge into the spirituality of not just classical music but also opens the windows to new opportunities in the backdrop of contemporary dynamics. The vision and exemplary samples aim at defining metaphysical lines of understanding of the human soul that is emotional, practical, and mentally captivating. It is as if she creates a spiritual phenomenon that validates human existence and its evolution into the unknown space of inner meaning, understanding, and contemplation.

The album, Sound of Angel consists of piano samples that protrude as an extension of her personality and medium of comprehension. As an artist, she is expressive and uninhibited as she weaves a thematic saga through melodies, riffs, chords, and a production skill that speaks yore of and today. All the songs from the album create a blissful reminiscence for the audience that pushes them further towards a direction of mental and soulful clarity. Her compositions are a confluence of worldly and unworldly elements that surpasses the existence of materialistic being. The artist herself found her own identity and individuality through her music that is subtle yet extensive in its technical formatting.

The album Sound of Angels will be played on Radios worldwide on Dec.18, 2020. She also has her next solo piano concert in Carnegie Hall on Sunday, June 20, 2021, between 8 PM and 10:30 PM at the event, American Protégé Summer Gala Concert at Carnegie Hall, Stern Auditorium.

Roses Royal Midgets and Other Little People of Vaudeville New Book From Vaudevisuals Press

Brooklyn, NY, Dec 19, 2020 -- This fascinating book starts with the story of Rose's Royal Midget Troupe, the creation of one of show biz history's great impresarios. Ike Rose was in a league with Barnum and Ziegfeld as men who transported audiences to a magical world for the price of a ticket. It is enhanced with personal remembrances by the mother of Gladys Farkas, one of the original members of the Troupe.

Author Travis S.D. - whose wide-ranging credits include actor, comedian, playwright and producer, humorist, journalist, director, and critic - is immersed in the field of eclectic performance.

Trav S.D. (www.travsd.com) has written for the NY Times, the Village Voice, American Theatre, Time Out NY, Reason, the Villager, and numerous other publications. He has been in the vanguard of New York's vaudeville and burlesque scenes since 1995 when he launched his company Mountebanks, which has presented hundreds of top variety acts. He has directed his own plays, revues, and solo pieces in NYC since 1989 at Joe's Pub, La Mama, Dixon Place, Theatre for the New City, the Ohio Theatre, and the Brick. In 2014 he produced and directed the smash-hit "I'll Say She Is", the first-ever revival of the Marx Brothers madcap hit. He is perhaps best known for his 2005 book No Applause, Just Throw Money: The Book That Made Vaudeville Famous, cited by Bette Midler in People magazine as one of her favorite books.

The many exclusive visuals in this book include photographs of the shoes and gloves used by Gladys Farkas in her act and images of her with Ike Rose. Sideshow historian James Taylor (author of Shocked and Amazed, https://amzn.to/2EOGkNV) has written the illuminating Foreward.

But wait, there's more! This BIG STORY also brings to light many of the other 'little people' acts performed in circuses, sideshows, carnivals, and dime museums, from the early 1900s through the 1950s. The book reproduces a treasure store of photographic "cartes de visite" and vintage collectible postcards which were originally sold by the performers at their shows.

The last book devoted to the wonderful performances of 'little people' was published in 1980. This new book brings amazing new material to light and is a rich trove of stories and visuals. It is an important addition to the archive of performing arts.

Pub Date: December 1st, 2020

HID Global Adds Risk and Occupancy Analytics to HID SAFE its Physical Identity and Access Management Solution ces

Incorporating Innominds iFusionTMpredictive analytics technology into HID SAFE enables safer, more secure workplaces that meet the pandemic’s building-occupancy mandates

AUSTIN, Texas, December 17, 2020 — As businesses move to hybrid remote and in-person workplaces while complying with evolving public-health mandates, they must manage a dynamic enterprise environment with more complex safety and security challenges. HID Global, a worldwide leader in trusted identity solutions, today announced its HID® SAFE™ Facility and Risk Analytics solution that improves efficiency, agility and flexibility in hybrid workplaces through real-time occupancy monitoring, risk analytics and alerting, and reporting.

HID Global has seamlessly integrated the Innominds AI-powered iFusion technology into its HID SAFE Facility and Risk Analytics solution so users can create an easy-to-understand risk score based on real-time and historical behavior patterns. The solution uses artificial intelligence to compare workplace data from physical security systems to archived information about past access control events, including unauthorized activities. This provides a clear picture of emerging threat scenarios so organizations can diagnose and resolve security risks.

“The ability to identify patterns of behavior that highlight risk is critical for businesses that increasingly are adopting a hybrid work model with more complex risks and compliance needs,” said Julian Lovelock, Segment Vice President at HID Global. “Innominds’ iFusion’s deep predictive analytics capabilities and its integration with HID Global’s physical identity management solutions are designed to ensure a secure enterprise work force environment thus enabling enterprises to embrace the new normal.”

iFusion analytics technology uses Innominds’ proprietary accelerators to generate deep insights, predictive analytics and real-time reporting from complex data. The technology enables HID SAFE solution users to predict security events so they can improve the effectiveness, efficiency, and cost of their security operations.

“We are pleased with this possibility of supporting enterprises return to work with solutions built on our AI, analytics and data engineering expertise. We are thrilled to be collaborating with HID Global who are leveraging our proprietary accelerators and AI-driven analytics platform such as iFusion TM,” said Krishna Guda, President and Chief Strategy Officer, Innominds. “Our joint vision to offer a secure back-to-work solution for the future enterprises becomes a reality with this collaboration. This strengthens our endeavor to power the Digital Next initiatives of global companies and be at the frontiers of the future of work.”

Axle AI Becomes the Leading Independent Software for Remote Media Search

Major industry shift as longtime competitor Square Box Systems (CatDV) is acquired by Quantum (NASDAQ: QMCO).

Boston, MA - USA | December 15, 2020 -- Upstart axle ai is now the leader in storage-agnostic media search software, after Quantum Corporation’s announcement yesterday (https://www.sportsvideo.org/2020/12/14/quantum-acquires-square-box-systems-makers-of-catdv-in-mega-mam-deal/) that they have acquired industry veteran Square Box Systems, developers of CatDV MAM software. Founded in 2012, axle’s mission has always been to provide radically simple, affordable media search software that works within standard web browsers and supports nearly any type of local and cloud storage. During 2020, the rapid adoption of remote work in the media space due to COVID-19 has meant rapid uptake of the company’s products, which have now been deployed at over 650 sites worldwide.

In addition, axle ai’s new SaaS pricing options, with bundles starting as low as $295 per month including HPE or Apple application server hardware, have brought on a new wave of adopters who are able to manage and search their high-resolution media via web browser for the first time. Cloud and hybrid cloud deployments of the software are also increasingly common, as the company’s Linux VM (virtual machine) version can be run in a number of cloud and private network environments.

Quantum’s acquisition of Square Box is part of a larger M&A trend in the Future of Work space for media, where two significant deals – Smartsheet acquiring Brandfolder for $155m, and Apple acquiring Spanish video search company Vilynx for a rumored $50m – occurred earlier this quarter.  Yet buttressed by its recent business successes, axle ai is committed to remaining independent.

In recent months, axle ai has announced a series of key partnerships with publicly-held storage vendors including NetApp, Dropbox and Infortrend, and privately-held vendors such as Qumulo, Spectralogic, Symply, Galileo Digital ACNC, and mLogic.  The company has also rolled out integrations with the three major video editing platforms – Adobe Premiere Pro, Avid Media Composer and Apple Final Cut Pro X.  Put together, it’s a formidable Future of Work ecosystem for the video industry.

Industry analyst Larry Jordan said: “axle.ai made its initial mark by providing easy to use, extensible and shareable media asset management (MAM) software for media creators. But, as the acquisition by Quantum makes clear, the market is far bigger than just M&E. The world tells stories using pictures. Every company in every industry is shifting to visual communications using digital images. As the numbers of visual images we need to label, track and share explode, companies like axle.ai become even more valuable and necessary.

axle ai’s growing list of hardware and software partnerships will no doubt be a strategic asset as it takes full advantage of the rapid rise of video collaboration (heightened by much more remote work during the COVID pandemic), increasingly powerful AI and ML technologies to search and manage that video, and the emergence of 5G and satellite networks that make high-speed connectivity more widely available.

The company’s platform consists of 3 core products:

* axle ai 2020.2, its flagship remote video search tool featuring browser access and integrations with leading video editing tools

* connectr.ai, its breakthrough workflow tool that lets teams create timesaving automations via drag-and-drop

* ascribe.ai, its integrated speech transcription product that makes large amounts of video searchable easily

“Yesterday’s announcement is an industry watershed”, said Sam Bogoch, CEO of axle ai. “It clearly demonstrates the relevance and strategic importance of video search and workflow automation, while demonstrating to both storage and application companies why they should have a strong and committed partner in this space going forward. We believe that we’re ideally positioned to be that partner.”

About axle ai:
axle ai, Inc. is the recognized leader in remote search software for video. Its Future of Work solutions have helped over 650 media organizations improve how they create, share and store digital video content with software that’s easy to install, use and afford. axle’s radically simple remote search, workflow automation and transcription uniquely addresses a burgeoning need and has caught on rapidly among video professionals in sports, post-production, education, broadcast, corporate, house of worship, non-profit, advertising-marketing, and government organizations worldwide. The company’s investors include Jason Calacanis and Quake Ventures.
