My name is Ryan Kamphuis, what’s yours? Pull up a chair, let’s talk for a while. I’m going to be your Arts & Entertainment editor for this next semester. First, a little about me so you know where I’m coming from. I’m a second—year Aerospace Engineering major from lVIinneapt:)lis, MN. I’m a huge movie and music buff. When it comes to movies, my favorite direc— tors are Quentin Tarantino and Kevin Smith. And when it comes to actors, I will never miss an Ellen Page film. As for music, I like pretty much all genres as long as it’s doing something new. I could be listening to jazz one minute, then punk the next. My favorite bands are Ar— cade Fire, LCD Soundsystem, Cloud Cult, and Matt & Kiln. I also adore almost all forms of art, and try to make it to an art museum at least once a month. But enough about me. This semes— ter I’m going to work hard to make TechNews your number one source on what’s happening in this awesome city we live in and what cool new music and movies to check out. How am I going to do this? Every week I am going to review a movie that just hit the silver screen or a new album that just hit the shelves. Every now and then I’ll dust off one of my favorite records and share with you all why I like it. I’ll also write articles about upcoming art exhibitions and music festivals. And to top it all off, I’ll write wrap—ups of the big events happening here in the City of Broad Shoulders. But all this isn’t enough. I’m still one man, and there’s no way I can share with you all of the best music and events. This is where you come in — to make this A&E section the best it can be, I need your help. Did you see a play that you really liked? How ab out you write a review and send it to TechNews? Did you just fall in love with a new band? Tell us all about it so we can fall in love, too! Did you do anything in this city that was a lot of fun? Let us know so that we can tell everyone about it! Submitting an article to the A&E section is easy. All you need to do is go to tech— newsiit.com, click on the ‘News Room’ button, then click on the ‘How to Submit Content’ link to see the rest you have to do. If you have any questions or aren’t sure on what you should do to contribute, you can always email me at ae@technewsiit.com. Thanks for your time, and I can’t wait to work with you to make the A&E section of Tech— News the best place to look when you’re look— in g for something to do!
