Image Split Pins.png thumb 250px Some brass fasteners. Note the two legs of different length. refimprove date August 2007 A brass fastener , brad , or split pin is a stationery item used for securing multiple sheets of paper together. The fastener is inserted into hole puncher punched holes in the stack of paper and the leaves, or tines , of the legs are separated and bent over to secure the paper. This holds the pin in place and the sheets of paper together. For few sheets of paper, holes can be made using the sharp end of the fastener. A split pin may be used in place of Staple fastener staple s, but is more commonly used in situations where rotation around the joint is desirable. This lends split pins to use in mobile paper and Paperboard cardboard models. It is shaped somewhat like a nail with a round head and flat, split length. Brass fasteners are made of a soft metal such as brass and the tines are typically of two slightly different lengths. This allows easy separation of the tines. A brass fastener is similar in design and function to the mechanical counterpart cotter pin s. Brass fasteners are also an industry standard in binding the screenplay s in the film industries across the globe. Brass fasteners are often used as modern scrapbooking embellishments and in Duo Tang brand paper folders.

Acid Brass was a musical collaboration between Turner Prize Turner Prize winning artist Jeremy Deller and the Fairey Band Williams Fairey Brass Band . The project was based on fusing the music of a traditional brass band with acid house and Detroit techno . Acid Brass began in 1997 as a collaboration between Deller, the Stockport based Fairey Brass Band and Rodney Newton who created all the brass arrangements. Deller saw a connection between the two apparently disparate genres, viewing them as two authentic forms of folk art rooted in specific communities . The music has since been taken all over the world, and was performed by the Fairey Band before a London crowd of 25000 in July 2005. In 1997, The KLF co founder Bill Drummond heard Acid Brass performing The KLF s What Time Is Love? as part of their encore. Consequently, Acid Brass collaborated with The KLF on a track titled Fuck the Millennium , incorporating Acid Brass cover of What Time Is Love? . The track was released as a single under the moniker 2K band 2K . The track The Groove that won t stop was played over the end titles to the 2010 movie Four Lions .

Cleanup date April 2007 Unreferenced date September 2010 Mnozil Brass is an Austrian brass septet , founded in 1992. History All founding members were graduates of the renowned Vienna College of Music, who met while playing at the Mnozil pub in Vienna s first inner city district. Music is presented in a typical Austrian humour style, which can be approximately characterized as jet black and here and there absurd. Elements of slapstick exist next to virtuosic brass playing. Notably Austrian and German schlager songs of the 20th century are often caricatured. Former member Sebastian Fuchsberger was a great talent in imitating, for example, Johannes Heesters and Udo J rgens . Mnozil Brass is able to convince the audience that playing music is not just serious business. Mnozil plays classical and jazz music using traditional brass instruments and more unusual instruments such as the keyed trumpet and Wagner tuba . The septet cooperates with freelance director Bernd Jeschek who developed the stage programs Smoke , Ragazzi and Seven and the first operetta of the 21st century titled Das Trojanische Boot The Trojan Boat , whose world premiere was in 2005 during the German art festival RuhrTriennale . The group has toured internationally and won praise from artists such as Barry Tuckwell , Chuck Findley, Jeff Nelson and Wycliffe Gordon .
