The first Clemson student to participate in the program, Lindsay Rodenkirchen graduates with a BVMS later this month (June 2021) She is excited about the possibilities she has and will receive from this experience “Coming to study in Glasgow through the FEEPASS Program is the best decision I’ve ever made in my life,” Rodenkirchen said “It has opened the doors to a wide range of possibilities and I can’t wait to see where life takes me.” plans to graduate with a BVMS at the same time I’ve really grown as a person being in another country for 5 years,” Dann said “You get to fully immerse yourself in another culture and make lifelong friends from different parts of the world This is something that I would not have been able to do going to school in the United States.” The FEEPASS agreement between Clemson University and the University of Glasgow began in 2016 with the help of Heather Dunn who was a senior lecturer in Animal and Veterinary Sciences (AVS) at the time I felt confident this was an ideal option for some of our AVS students,” said Dunn who is now a research assistant professor in the Department of Bioengineering “The University of Glasgow Veterinary Program provides an opportunity for graduates to practice veterinary medicine globally the curriculum is organized differently from most vet schools in the United States Glasgow veterinary school students begin learning clinical applications from the first day of class by integrating concepts of structure The goal is to develop clinical and professional skills that students continue as they progress through the program.” Today, Jeryl Jones serves as liaison and advisor for the program “This is a wonderful opportunity for students to finish their AVS bachelor’s degree while studying abroad,” Jones said “This program also allows them to become totally immersed in a new culture while completing their studies and gives them a guaranteed seat in vet school without having to submit a Veterinary Medical College application.” Clemson students apply for the program during their sophomore year If they are accepted and complete admissions requirements they can spend their fourth year in Glasgow and return to Clemson to graduate They can then return to Scotland for 4 years of veterinary school at the university Joyce Wason, director of admissions and student services manager for the University of Glasgow School of Veterinary Medicine said they work with 12 universities in the United States that have animal science programs “We know we are getting very good students who have experience with production animals when Clemson students participate in our program,” she said “Graduating as a veterinary surgeon from Glasgow gives students the ability to travel and work literally anywhere in the world The University of Glasgow School of Veterinary Medicine is accredited by the Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons the American Veterinary Association and the European Association of Establishments for Veterinary Education Credits earned transfer back to Clemson so that students can graduate with a bachelor’s degree Successful completion of the FEEPASS program also guarantees students a spot in the University of Glasgow’s veterinary school She likes how the university structures its curriculum and that students are afforded hands-on opportunities the first week of class “These studies are placements we have to plan and complete throughout the entirety of our degree,” Rodenkirchen said “We are given a lot of freedom to tailor the placements towards our own interests because I’m interested more in small animal medicine I chose to see practice in a variety of small animal clinics around the world These placements also help us apply what we learn in the classroom to real life It has been especially helpful for me as a tactile learner.” Rodenkirchen said she has been able to “broaden (her) perspectives on veterinary medicine,” as well as “explore and appreciate different cultures and create friendships and connections with people” from all over the world she doesn’t plan to go far after graduation “Having this international community opens the door to so many new opportunities,” she said “I have just accepted a job offer to work in a small animal general practice here in Glasgow so I’ve decided to stay for a bit longer.” Dann also has been in Scotland for 5 years – completing her bachelor’s degree and continuing on to receive her BVMS “It gave me the opportunity to travel and study abroad while also following my dreams of becoming a veterinarian.” Dann appreciates the diversity she has discovered we are taught a more worldly view of veterinary medicine to encompass the different countries people come from,” she said “By completing most of my externships in the United States I have been able to see first-hand the differences.” Differences she has noticed include alternative approaches to some surgical procedures such as performing a cat/feline flank spay to remove the ovaries and uterus for sterilizing a female cat whereas the United States generally takes a midline approach,” she said “This gives us another option for surgical approaches and we can tailor the procedure to the patient.” she has played lacrosse and traveled around Scotland and to England for games Dann was able to travel “a fair amount.” She went to France the Canary Islands and all over the United Kingdom/Ireland After graduating from the University of Glasgow Dann is moving to Dallas to complete a 1-year internship in mixed animal medicine she plans on “settling down and practicing in Campobello with (her) fiancé and dogs.” She met her fiancé Other Clemson students participating in the program include Cleo Seger from Newport Beach Support is provided for Clemson AVS students who want to participate in the FEEPASS program. Meredith Wilson, associate director for enrollment management in the Pam Hendrix Center for Education Abroad said the Center provides advising for all students traveling abroad “We help students navigate the applications and documentation required for both Clemson and the University of Glasgow,” Wilson said “We also connect them to a financial aid advisor to ensure they have access to applicable funding during their experience abroad provide pre-departure orientation and support to help prepare for the experience as well as ensure that applicable coursework is transferred back to Clemson once their first year is complete.” Pam Hendrix Center staff also provide all students with a health and safety app The app not only feeds students’ pertinent information based on their location but also allows Pam Hendrix Center staff and students to easily communicate if the need arises they are provided support to help them become acclimated to the culture and achieve their goals For more information on the Clemson FEEPASS program, contact Jeryl Jones at jerylj@clemson.edu or Meredith Wilson at mfant@clemson.edu other universities that participate in the program are: California Polytechnic State University University of Vermont and Washington State University Or email us at news@clemson.edu Clemson News is the go-to source for stories and news about the innovations research and accomplishments of the Clemson Family Undivided Creative have been thrilled to announce a new Artist to the Undivided roster: Renée Rodenkirchen Renée is a renowned Toronto based artist whose famed photography and directing work has gained international success in the fashion and entertainment world Renée has also shot with a long list of iconic personalities including the likes of Oprah Winfrey Renée's visual approach is highly stylised and often the result of her unique conceptual imagination - not to mention her beautiful use of colour and tireless hands-on approach when creating sets and stunning conceptual art pieces that sets her apart from other artists Renée is a dreamer whose sense of carefree whimsy is extremely evident in her work as she implements this wild imagination into her visuals There is a charming quirkiness that shines throughout her work creating a levity that is often so essential when shooting ads where we’re able to see a true glimpse into her deep rooted passion for costume and storytelling through hyper-stylised visuals “I love bringing out people’s personalities on camera in fun and vibrant ways Directing has allowed me to explore more storytelling and create worlds from my imagination So photo and motion kind of do different things for me which is why I’ve never been able to commit to just one or the other As an artist I see myself as someone who brings to life a playful stylised and quirky interpretation of the world."

Here's more music of German minnesinger Wizlaw von Rügen played on medieval flute by Norbert Rodenkirchen with lutenist Giuseppe Paolo Cecere and percussionist Wolfgang Reithofer Wizlaw came from the area where the legend of the Pied Piper was born; but he was just a young boy in 1284 there may have been a connection between Wizlaw and the flute-playing "relocator" who was the origin of the tale.. Here's music from the program "Hameln Anno 1284," recorded live at Texas Tech University flutist Norbert Rodenkirchen played "The Longing Tune of the Ungelarte," a tune borrowed by the medieval minnesinger Wizlaw von Ruegen The passage at the beginning was spoken by Dr who provided the narration for the concert Here's more about the German minnesinger Wizlaw von Ruegen.. play music of minnesinger Wizlaw von Ruegen and a traditional Slavic tune Norbert Rodenkirchen's latest CD on the Marc Aurel Edition label is a collaboration with singer Sabine Lutzenberger and features the music of German minnesinger Heinrich von Meissen The name of the CD is In vergessenen Tönen The "tones" referred to here are melodic and metrical poetic templates with evocative names such as "the flight ton," "the green ton," or "the forgotten ton." These musical forms become the vehicle for von Meissen's characteristically philosophical and contemplative lyrics a "contemplation on honor" is written using the "Green Ton," as Norbert Rodenkirchen explains..  Let's hear the "In the verdant countryside I sit and reflect" lyric and music of the medieval German minnesinger Frauenlob It's not easy to find English translations of Frauenlob's lyric and it's a treat to read the beautiful translations by Meredith Beck included in the CD booklet included in the recording In vergessenen Tönen One of the most intriguing lyrics on the CD is not by Frauenlob but is actually a lyric by the German mystic known as Meister Eckhart Norbert talked about the process of setting Meister Eckhart's lyric to music.. All things and nothingness emanate all around and you will discover the way to the desert All my being sinks into god's nothingness; it sinks into the flow without end Norbert Rodenkirchen has been my guest on this week's edition of Harmonia Our conversation took place after a concert and medieval music workshop at Texas Tech University where he performed his "Hameln Anno 1284" program parts of which we heard on the first half of this week's program We'll end with one more piece from the new CD by Norbert Rodenkirchen and Sabine Lutzenberger how wide; the end of all things is a square As rich as the middle which joins it in good company Yet only does the end have any say over perfection with all its stratum this deed will never be achieved unscathed Let's finish with "The End tells of the perfection of all things," a contemplation on form by the medieval German minnesinger Heinrich von Meissen The writer for this edition of Harmonia is Angela Mariani Learn more about recent early music CDs on the Harmonia Early Music Podcast You can subscribe on iTunes or at harmonia early music dot org Special thanks to recording engineers Rachel Boyd and Breanna Englehardt and Dr Will Strieder at Texas Tech School of Music Recording Services Harmonia is a weekly, nationally syndicated radio program hosted by Angela Mariani, and Harmonia Uncut is a podcast hosted by Wendy Gillespie, produced by WFIU Public Radio.

classical the group Sequentia performed quite old medieval music for the Music Before 1800 concert series and in a way there was nothing old about it Sequentia was a quartet: founder Benjamin Bagby singing and playing an Anglo-Saxon harp; Hanna Marti singing and playing harps; Stef Conner singing; and Norbert Rodenkirchen playing wooden and bone flutes The seeming limits of the instrumental palette in terms of color and harmonic range (these were modern recreations of small hand-held harps) were irrelevant against the fabulous singing from Marti and Conner Classical music is a composer’s music more like modern popular music than any sonata or concerto Sequentia titled their Program “Words of Power: Charms Riddles and Elegies of the Medieval Northlands,” and filled it with a variety of instrumentals spoken riddles and songs meant to ward off bodily ills but an abundance of everyday thoughts and words and translate the words from Anglo-Saxon and Old High German There are songs in the classical repertoire but these were songs as known around the world — repeated melodies with phrases and words marked out in clear Baroque music turned the voice into an instrument and a clear beat started to disappear in the 19th century but they never left the larger universe of human music making — those qualities will always be relevant and have an expressive directness As will the subjects Sequentia sang of Sunday Sprinkled with mischievous Anglo-Saxon riddles like patter with the audience between numbers the songs were either practical — meant to cure worms and manage swarms of bees — or diverting.  Bagby sang the elegy “The Song of the Lone Survivor,” familiar to anyone who has witnessed his remarkable performances of Beowulf But the concert was built around three other elegies “Deor,” “The Wife’s Lament,” and “Wulf and Eadwacer,” sung in Anglo-Saxon These were sung in turn by Conner and Marti one hears the abstraction and stylization of emotion into ornamentation and runs of sixteenth-notes Put on Billie Holiday to feel the power of human experience in the singer herself in her body and voice and thus straight to one’s ears and heart not just telling stories but impressing them into the listener’s life lost language showed they knew the meaning of every word and the way they brought each phrase to finality on strong downbeats made the music urgent Having words at the forefront is ironic in that illiteracy was common in Medieval times in that notation was in its fledging state; there was little music to read so musicians learned via listening and playing And many of their songs were catalogues of people and places and pass it down to subsequent generations Musical content has been preserved this way the songs less a body of work than work that lives in the musician’s body Rodenkirchen soloed on “Lilia,” an ancient Icelandic instrumental with a lovely and hypnotic melody sprinkled with quarter-tone passing notes the sure tread of a half-step with exponentially more expression He opened the last of the four short sets with another instrumental A program note explained that it was transcribed and reconstructed by the flutist from his “research into the earliest possible written sources of instrumental music.”  That limns the edge of a timeless space where people tell stories and sing songs about love it’s just singing songs we all know and love Stile Antico performs 4 p.m., February 9, at Corpus Christi Church. mb1800.org XHTML: You can use these tags: <a href="" title=""> <abbr title=""> <acronym title=""> <b> <blockquote

singers and players of his talented ensemble Sequentia At Jordan Hall on Wednesday evening they reached back several centuries earlier than in the usual Boston Early Music Festival fare to bring us a riveting series of “Charms Riddles and Elegies” on Anglo-Saxon and Germanic texts and played a six-string lyre-shaped Anglo-Saxon harp reproduced in Germany and also wielded a traditional deer-hide drum from Vancouver Island Other performers were Norbert Rodenkirchen who played a small bone flute by Boston’s own Friedrich von Huene in addition to a variety of wooden cross-flutes and a 16-string medieval harp Bagby structured the concert in four segments designed to draw us First came the so-called “Merseburg Charms,” the only known examples of Germanic pagan belief preserved in Old High German Compelling incantations by the two women in shrill unison urged on the Valkyries and called for the healing of a wounded battle horse Bagby posed an Anglo-Saxon riddle in two stanzas that described first the physical structure of a “creature” and then its power Assuming the persona of a tribal singer using a pentatonic melody of restricted compass Bagby cited tales of famous men who suffered before recounting his own loss of status as singer to the king More charms in Old High German and Anglo-Saxon followed: to bless a house and to manage a swarm of bees The second program segment opened with an instrumental piece based on one of the few surviving melodies from the northern islands Magnus hymn from a manuscript of around 1230 from the Orkneys The two Anglo-Saxon harps accompanied what sounded like an improvisatory flight by Rodenkirchen on a sonorous wooden flute More riddles from Bagby alluded to a quill pen and the fingers that command it Stef Conner eloquently assumed the role of an Anglo-Saxon wife waiting and longing for her absent warrior husband Concluding incantations aimed to chase away a litany of invasions of the human body Rodenkirchen opened the third program segment with a beautiful rendition of the ancient Icelandic folk tune “Lilja” on the flute Bagby’s performance of the “Dying Old Man” elegy from the Beowulf epic was equally moving while incantations against the spider-dwarf and “little tumors” were downright frightening The instrumental piece that opened the fourth and final segment was “deconstructed” back in time by Rodenkirchen from a 10th-century sequence by the St based on the supposition that a multi-stanza Christian sequence might have been based on a pre-Christian melody from oral tradition Three Anglo-Saxon riddles described household objects — bread dough a butter churn — to which obscene doubles entendres could easily be ascribed — but were left to our imaginations Hanna Marti performed her own reconstruction of the Anglo-Saxon “Wulf and Eadwacer” elegy with its haunting refrain “It is different with us.” The poem is preserved in a manuscript known as the Exeter Book but several of the poems included in the book are much older and some of them have been dated as far back as the 7th century The story of Wulf and Eadwacer is enigmatic According to the most widely credited interpretation being held prisoner on an island by Eadwacer while Wulf (her lover or husband) is in exile perhaps being hunted by the speaker’s people her defiant isolation in the face of danger became palpable Marti and Conner joined forces with Bagby’s harp and Rodenkirchen’s flute to invoke charms against bleeding that freely mixed pagan magic and Christian imagery Bagby recited an elaborate charm that invoked Wotan and finally Christ to drive out nine poisons from the body The evening closed with the “Mill Song of Frodi’s Slave Girls,” taken from a 13th-century prose Edda in Old Icelandic King Frodi hires two slave girls to grind out wealth and prosperity for him with a magic millstone But remembering that they are descended from powerful mountain giants they instead grind out an army to destroy him Marti and Conner were menacingly convincing in their vengeful anger the second part of each stanza shifting to the shrill tessitura of the melody’s upper final It seemed to this uninstructed listener that both imaginative re-composition and a good deal of conjecture were brought to bear in bringing these “Lost Songs” to life These are musicians steeped in improvisatory traditions they have mastered obscure languages and made them their own in performances that are riveting as well as convincing We are grateful for the varied-repetition structure of the program for the complete texts and translations provided by Anglo-Saxonist Craig Williamson and for projection of the translations on Jordan Hall’s screen Sequentia promises detailed information about sources and reconstructions for

Now Ella Rodenkirchen's father wrote a manuscript about his adventures at sea as a British merchant ship mariner eventually became a journey for her into the self-publishing world to see her father's dream of seeing that manuscript turned into a book be  realized "I have to say for me it was a most fun journey a surprisingly joyful journey for me to go on and see my father's dream realized," said Rodenkirchen Rees died in 1966 while living in Edmonton and the manuscript he had been working on about his younger days serving in the British Mercantile Marine as an engineer hit a dead end It was his story about life at sea from when Rees started at age 21 in 1903 until he gave it up in 1914 The manuscript was passed on to his younger son He in turn passed away in 1997 without making any progress on it and then it was bequeathed to Rodenkirchen "I was busy raising kids at that time and didn't have the time to deal with it either but when I retired in 2012 I turned my attention to self-publishing it," Rodenkirchen said Her journey ended when the book was published in September "I do not believe that my experiences have been unique I am sure that there are many sailors with more interesting stories to tell but who are possibly reluctant to recount them," wrote Rees in an introductory forward to his book "Great changes have come about in the lives of the sailors of sixty or seventy-five years ago compared to the comforts and safety afforded the modern 'sea farer.'" Rees noted the British nation depended almost entirely on the ships and the men who operated them to further the economic interests of their country "One of the things I realized in editing the manuscript was just how hard life was for people like my father working on those ships We had all heard the stories growing up but you appreciate how difficult it was in reading his stories about being at sea," Rodenkirchen said she says her father's exploits at sea make a great literary gift for anyone who enjoys reading about history and life at sea in the early 1900s A True Life Sea Story is available at Mosaic Books in Kelowna Dialogue and debate are integral to a free society and we welcome and encourage you to share your views on the issues of the day.

Click here to learn more. “I did a test project with [this series] when I was doing my MFA in documentary media I didn’t realize how much the imagery would stick with me especially going through this transition—leaving a full-time job and going freelance.” “The show is about creating a dialogue around mental health Everyone goes through ups and downs with emotions to different degrees Part of this project is to get away from labeling and make the notion of crisis relatable When we label those experiences with medical jargon it creates barriers to talking about mental health openly It’s about creating a commonality around mental health I was diagnosed with ADD/ADHD that later turned into anxiety and depression but it was always a battle until I was in my early twenties when I figured out how to deal through taking the time to actually work through my shit talking through what you’re feeling is really important That was part of why I could get through what I did.” “At first I wanted to have people I didn’t know If people I knew felt like they connected to the piece Why it was important to include a self-portrait in the series: you can’t talk about it and not be vulnerable I don’t think I could have done the project without being in it myself I filmed myself underwater and then coming up to breathe ‘This looks cool.’ Then I was at a point where I had lost two very close friends and had gone into a super dark place—in retrospect I was working through my feelings in my work.” “I think it’s great on a societal level that we’re trying to be open about mental illness I need to go home.’ I don’t think we’re at that point yet Why dialogue (like the one she’s creating) around mental health is the only way we’ll break down stigma: but we need to be able to talk about it with each other Even though you feel alone in those moments Are people going to judge me?’ At the end of the day you’re not going to express yourself to the fullest extent of your creativity.”  Bagby sees himself as “a reconstructed singer of tales,” and his performances of medieval works (“The Lost Songs Project,” music from the Icelandic “Edda: The Rheingold Curse”) are invariably riveting— sold out year after year Sponsored by The Boston Early Music Festival Paul Church in Cambridge on Saturday night founded and directed by Bagby and his late wife have had a Hildegard von Bingen project ongoing since 1982 The only other performer on Saturday who also played at Wellesley was the enchanting transverse flute player Most of the audience clearly came to hear the music of Hildegard von Bingen (1098-1179) knowing full- or at least partially- well who she was Hildegard seems to have come out of nowhere Efforts to canonize her were thwarted in the 13thcentury enough of her music was collected to prove she was worth canonization completed its 22-year project of recording her complete works (in CDs) All the vocal editions were prepared by Bagby and the few instrumental pieces (far too few) with harp and/or flute were arranged by Bagby and Rodenkirchen from Hildegard’s melodies “Mystical Voices of Medieval Germany: Hildegard von Bingen: Celestial Hierarchy” took the last part of its title from Bingen’s “Symphonia armonie celestium revelationum” (symphony of the harmony of celestial revelations) that indicated the poetic cycle’s divine inspiration “Her visions included not only the visible reality of God but also his musical reality.” Her music the program notes by Barbara Stühlmeyer insist was inspired by the liturgy and written for it.” Her songs are “not examples of art music that are at home onstage and that can be arranged in effective ways depending on the performers’ inspiration and wealth of ideas.” “Celestial Hierarchy” is also the title of Sequentia’s final CD of Hildegard a nine CD set that will be released this March by DHM/SONY and her creations were intended to be sung by the sisters of her convent on the Rhine at Bingen as a complement to the traditional Gregorian chant sung during liturgical and other functions One can hardly imagine it being sung more beautifully than it was by Sequentia A deep quiet and calm descended upon the spellbound audience lasting the entire concert (performed without intermission) I only wish there had been more use of the two instrumentalists they played the liveliest music of the evening a much-appreciated palate cleanser which broke the hypnotic spell of the singers the thunderous applause at the end was almost unwelcome I would have rather walked quietly into the cold night air and kept the haunting music alive in my memory a little longer who sat quietly onstage most of the evening enjoying the fruits of his and his wife’s devotion to unearthing and enhancing the legend of Hildegard Comments Off on Hildegarde von Bingen’s Celestial Music Picture this: you’re in an elevator on your way up to the third floor of the Shangri-La Hotel in Toronto (you also may have just had a Leo sighting in the lobby you walk out to see your photographer taking photos of Glen Powell doing some sort of acrobatics on the sofa Because Powell—who stars as astronaut John Glenn in Hidden Figures the untold story of three brilliant African American women working at NASA he had us laughing so hard for the entirety of the shoot we all needed to sit down with iced coffees to cool off before he walked the red carpet of his premiere we had him tell us all about what it was like making the film but there are very few movies that make you stop and go I have to be a part of this.’ One of the reasons you make movies is because they are executed by directors you've wanted to work with and include a cast that you want to work with and obviously are based on a subject matter that is important somebody I've looked up to since I was a kid [was amazing] That's also something that makes you campaign for a role [like playing John Glenn] Hopefully you try not to get so excited that you don't act like an icon when you're on the audition or look like you're too desperate for a job [laughs].” On meeting the Octavia Spencer and Taraji P I don't know how they do it—I was out with Taraji till like 5 AM the night of her birthday [because she's] literally on it all day long “Octavia and Taraji were so generous; when I was shooting my little sister and my dad all got to be in this movie My dad is in the scene during a press conference with everyone talking about the Friendship 7 launch and with the entire Mercury 7 and then my mom and my little sister are in the handshake line Octavia and Ted [Melfi] were all very instrumental in making sure to strategically place them so that they were covered in every single lens “I try to include the family in every movie I do sometimes you get put on the cutting room floor But we worked hard to make sure the Powell family got as much face time as possible.” “Just going out with the whole gang [is special] Taraji cooks for everybody all the time—she has people over to her house This was one of those movie experiences where it was truly charmed from sun up to sun down You had incredible textual basis for this movie in the book Hidden Figures you had an incredible cast that came together Usually you have the better stories of the thing that tend to go wrong but it's nice to be part of a movie where everything goes right.” “There was a lot of research to be done because there's so much that's written about [John Glenn] there's plenty of footage all over the internet of John Glenn in the capsule that I could study There was so much stuff to draw from in terms of John Glenn “I think the real pressure was Taraji and Octavia and Janelle's characters these women who are really the true heroes of this story This story will never be on celluloid again and so I think the real pressure comes to those three women to play those characters and do them justice I didn't feel like I had as much pressure I just captured the essence of John and what he represented in NASA in the world at the time that's a true weight—especially when Katherine Johnson came on set and you could look her in the eyes I'm sure Taraji was feeling the heat [laughs].” really special story about three amazing woman who with pure brain power intelligence and the power of woman accomplished some amazing things that have affected the course of history It's really [a story] about coming together to do something impossible it's a feel good story—it's truly one of those movies that you move out to Hollywood to make “I think the hardest emotion to get out of another human is the laugh-cry where people are simultaneously laughing and crying this is a movie that could melt your heart make you see a part of history that's never been seen before and is obviously glorifying people who deserve glorifying.” “By the way they did not show us any of the footage before we went up to the Q&A and Jenno Topping I was so terrified because I realized that with actors you should always show them the footage ahead of time because what if they hate it?’ [Laughs] You know actors are inherently narcissistic individuals I could've played this moment so much better,’ it's all you could think about during your Q&A is like [Laughs] Around the second time around you could kind of wrap your head around what you're seeing But the best part about this movie is it's truly really good and everybody is so great in it everybody walked up there invigorated and full of life and so excited to talk about the movie because I think the world is going to really like what they see.” The first question I ask whenever I get on a movie is Because they're gonna be on set and they're definitely going to be at the premiere but usually before a premiere I'll be kicking it with the family because that is obviously where I live and love and they will usually get me in the right head space They're some of the funniest people I know so it'll get me in the right head space to talk and be fun because they're a very Henry Cavill [starring in it]—you’ve got a hell of a young cast for that one so it'll be a Netflix movie and we'll be premiering top of the year.” “If Martha Stewart had an adderall prescription” is how Luigi Tadini describes his creative soul mate, Nicky Balestrieri while “Stavros and Susan” plays to both their alter egos it’s safe to

The flute has also been significant in Western Judaism It was used in the medieval era in Europe and in the time of King David when Psalm 150 referred to expressing gratitude to God “with stringed instruments and flute.” In line with how the popular practice of mindfulness is today largely associated with Eastern religions Rodenkirchen will play contemplative flute in Vancouver in mid-November in collaboration with Beverly Ackhurst who will lead audience-participants through “moving meditations.” Rodenkirchen will be performing at another venue that reflects his belief that medieval forms of contemplation were based on music derived from Christian chant In the short video below Norbert Rodenkirchen performs a segment of Tibia Ex Tempore: Metro Vancouver residents will have the chance to experience Rodenkirchen’s interpretation of European meditative flute music on Nov Before the Nov. 16 flute performance, Christ Church Cathedral Rev. Peter Elliott will join in conversation with Rodenkirchen at 6:45 p.m. “I’ll want to talk about how music conveys an experience of the divine,” Elliott says. “I’ve long been convinced that music as much as — and sometimes more than — words enable people access into the space where you are more receptive to the power of the Spirit. I’d be interested to know how Norbert has experienced this in his own work as a performer.” The Vancouver Sun caught up with Rodenkirchen in Germany, where he answered some questions. Q. Why do you think the flute can help people get in touch with the sacred? A. The simple cylindrical flute is probably the oldest instrument of mankind. Even the Neanderthal people built flutes out of bone to express their inner feelings and to imitate nature´s sounds. Because of its modulations in breath pressure — very similar to the human voice — the flute has always played an important role mediating between man and nature. In late antiquity, as well as today in East Asian traditions, the flute represents communication with the hereafter. Q. How do you think a 13-century European audience may have responded to solo flute in a sanctuary? A. We know from an important witness, Johannes de Grocheo in Paris, that instrumental music on flutes, fiddle, harp and other medieval instruments was highly appreciated as an invitation to contemplation, especially among those close to the cathedral school at Notre Dame. De Grocheo wrote in his famous treatise, De Musica, that the spontaneous performance form called “stantipes” could prevent listeners from bad thought and would lead them to inner concentration. Q. How does flute music relate to Gregorian chants? A. Much of instrumental music until the 13th century was simply based on melodies of existing songs and hymns. Nearly all of the occidental vocal music in the Middle Ages was closely connected with Gregorian chant as its major source. This was true even for the secular music. There was not a big distinction between sacred and secular melodies in medieval times at all. Both originated in Gregorian traditions and were highly valued. Q. Why do you think the medieval mystic, Meister Eckhart, would have thought the sound of the flute could mediate between humans and the divine? A. As well as other German medieval mystics like Hildegard of Bingen, Eckhart described visions of sound and light in which concrete forms of visual and acoustical sensations — what we today call art and music — are just symbolic manifestations of sound and light in a sphere beyond the actual reality of time and space. Q. Would this form of meditative music have been available to the masses in medieval Europe? A. Contemplative art and mindful thought should always be available to anyone open to it. But through the ages contemplative traditions were appreciated mostly by initiated people who had a spiritual interest in the meaning of life, such as people in the monasteries or at the cathedral schools. Q. What can today’s listener to Tibia Ex Tempore expect to gain from opening themselves to the seamless stream of melodic fragments in your flute improvisation? A. Music always has more than one dimension. But, among other things, I deeply hope to reach the inner soul of the listeners. I also hope that I will be able to offer a new intensive perception of time for listeners, who will hear music in very wide and slow wavelengths, like a huge, long breath. This is the complete opposite to the quickly changing sounds that take place in today’s popular music, which has cuts that occur within microseconds. I must say, though, that I also adore pop music in other contexts related to joyful and ecstatic dance. A. I regard contemplation and meditation as the most prominent and noble quality of music. transmission or republication strictly prohibited This website uses cookies to personalize your content (including ads), and allows us to analyze our traffic.

The camera never goes over the wall and into the camp and the film takes place without a single closeup as if the camera itself doesn’t want to get too close to these people.  Though the film takes its title from Martin Amis’ 2014 novel of the same name and is ostensibly based on that book it jettisons Amis’ plot to tell a simple story in a way that is both rigorous and chilling Since its premiere at the Cannes Film Festival the runner-up prize to the Palme d’Or won by “Anatomy of a Fall” — the movie has caught the attention of voters Best International Feature Film and Best Sound and it won BAFTA Awards for Best British Film and Best Film Not in the English Language Glazer himself has been largely absent from the awards circuit.“He’s not super relaxed or comfortable being what he calls ‘in front of the film,’” his producer I would think that when you’re making a movie this uncompromising “How is this going to appeal to awards voters?”That is probably the easiest “yes you’re right” of any question I have been asked since the launch of “The Zone of Interest” in Cannes in May It refutes narrative form — it hasn’t really got a story in the traditional sense I’m still scratching my head every so often because our thoughts couldn’t have been further from that nine-year journey of making the film and where one thought it might have sat in the ecosystem and that has to be something that developed slowly over a period of time.Yes especially for what you might think of for Jonathan Glazer And I don’t think it isn’t strikingly visual if you think about the thermal imagery in it and certain other parts of it But it’s a restrained film and it is rigorous and there’s a certain kind of austerity to it There were consistent things about the philosophical vision of the film and the questions it was asking He and I had been talking and thinking about the subject matter — the subject matter being National Socialism A Nazi concentration camp from the point of view of the people who run it shown from a largely domestic and private perspective That felt like a frame that would ask some really interesting questions about complicity and compartmentalization and indifference But the form of what that would be did take a while to develop Jon was writing the script for about five or six years The book is a novel set in a fictional concentration camp with fictional characters and the commandant’s wife is having an affair with a high-ranking executive Jon very swiftly decided that he didn’t want to do that He didn’t want there to be any story that Auschwitz was the backdrop of and we very quickly realized that the novel is based on Rudolph Höss and his family As soon as Jon found out about the Höss family and visited Auschwitz of how the camp is literally on the other side of their garden wall Rudolph and Hedwig and that life that they lived.” And the book at that point was put in a drawer and never returned to Then it was this process of gathering information and discussing philosophy He had ideas that were much more expressionistic and heightened you would think it was the opposite of the movie we made So although it became something not expressionistic in terms of the main body of the film there were other sequences that were different the sequence of the Polish girl who leaves fruit for prisoners It was based on a real 90-year-old woman who he met “I want that in the film.” But she did it at night (when she was a teenager) and he had this rule about no movie lights We found this thermal-imaging camera that has this extraordinary all of these different film languages are in there it’s a key decision to have the camera stay on the outside of the wall at Auschwitz — to say “You’re going to hear what’s on the other side of the wall but we’re not going to take you there.” What was the thinking that went into that decision?We always wanted the majority of the film to take place in the domestic world you did go over the wall and there were sequences and scenes in the camp There was also a sequence where Höss went to a meeting at the IG Farben factory which was one of the largest factories in the world That’s why Auschwitz was built at that site because it was conceived in tandem by the SS and Farben and they wanted free slave labor from the camp And we wanted to have a scene there because we wanted to talk about the link between economics and the Nazis in a less familiar way than the Holocaust is normally narrated We had a draft where there was much more stuff let’s bring them into the house and the garden.” A neat example of that would be the big meeting at IG Farber which became a meeting in the house with the oven engineers from Topf and Sons which is the real engineering company in Germany that built the crematoriums The image of Höss’ boots being washed and a rivulet of blood running out is similarly a sort of haiku of a sequence Jon did write a scene where you went over the wall and saw the aftermath of death and murder I don’t want to do that.” It became a principle not to do that Did it take a toll on you to be at Auschwitz making this movie?It took a toll the most challenging film I’ve ever produced but I would imagine that it was for most of us who made it One part of that was being in that place that has a great gravitas to it I think everyone responded to it in different ways And when we were working on the development “Perhaps what the film is asking is not ‘How could these ordinary people do such terrible things?’” — which is the “banality of evil”-type idea — “but ‘How much like them are we?’” you can understand that the film stands against an idea of Holocaust exceptionalism that says the Holocaust is a mythical event that’s outside of history and outside of human understanding and can’t be represented although I understand where those impulses come from because you refute analysis and history if you’re saying this just happened because there are monsters.” I think that the film is trying to suggest that it’s not a mythical place The Holocaust didn’t just happen in Auschwitz The Holocaust happened in all sorts of places And the impulses and the desires and the drives and the fears that are being marshaled — the scapegoating of people so that they can be dehumanized and disposed of or enslaved — are universal ones I hope that doesn’t sound grandiose or pretentious but I think you have to resist that comfortable demonization of Auschwitz because we should be thinking about everything This story first appeared in the Down to the Wire issue of TheWrap’s awards magazine. Read more of the issue here We like to think we have a go-to phrase here at TC HQ: WWID We figure that when it comes to imagination and style there’s no one quite as inspiring as Iris Apfel And putting yourself in the Iris mindset works for all sorts of situations: what would she do We’ve really always wanted to find out—‘cause you know that after more than a few decades as the ultimate purveyor of extraordinary taste Press play and read on: this is Iris with no filter "[I’ve found my clothes and antiques] all over the world; I travelled extensively For my business I used to do two trips a year I had a big interior design business of my own and I also sold antiques through the Old World Weaver showrooms around the country Then there were a number of my own things that I've collected over the years long collection from all over the place." "It has to jump out and say something I like offbeat things; I have very few run-of-the-mill things I have a lot of pieces that are from other periods that may fit perfectly but are not the usual thing that you would see You can't do houses and have everything you need right at your fingertips and clients don't like to wait too long So whenever I saw unusual things I bought them—in all kinds of crazy places I've had to cut down drastically as I’ve run out of wall space I still buy small things that appeal to me and I still collect jewelry with a vengeance.” "I just bought a wonderful pin recently; it's all pavé stones and must be about eight inches high When you look at it at first it looks like a 19th century dandy The gentleman has a long frock coat and interesting hat but it's a trembling piece—its head wiggles "I found [my signature glasses] at a flea market and I started to wear them when I needed to wear glasses I liked them so much—the great big ones—sometimes I’d wear them without any lenses as I thought they were so fantastic." "I still have the dress I wore on the first date with my husband "There were a few decades that I hated The world is not black and white; there are lots of shades of grey There are good things and bad things in every era and I think it's kind of very blindfolded to say one era was wonderful but there were a lot of bad things as well but people were doing some wonderful things I go from one to the other and I like to mix them up as you never know what you're going to find—I always tried to keep an open mind I could find a treasure in a junk shop or junk in a very elegant emporium." "My father told me once not to expect anything from anybody so I wouldn't be disappointed If somebody was nice and did nice things for me I should be overjoyed but I shouldn't go through life expecting it "It's very eclectic—everything I like I think there's a lot of wonderful decorating around While some of these homes are very beautiful They could be suites in very expensive hotels but they don't tell you who lives there I like an apartment that has some personality "The anonymity of it—it's all too similar I think people should express themselves more and not just buy what's in While it can be very beautiful and it may suit you perfectly I'm sure it doesn’t suit everyone in the same way I like people who express themselves and are more individualistic."

Of course, when you’re cozied up in a dreamy suite at The Bowery Hotel (that bathroom!) and an endless supply of Jo Malone London products it’s hard not to find a reason (or two dozen) to try to stay in Once you draw yourself a rose-oil-doused bath and start creating your own bespoke scents by layering your favorite Jo Malone London together—your original plans for a night out are bound to take the back seat offering up their best-selling scents in a series of convenient sets Poppy shares her signature scent combinations the sweet stories behind her favorite fragrances and the perfect binge-watch accompaniments to your next night in Basil & Neroli Candle + English Pear & Freesia Diffuser: Red Roses Bath Oil + Lime Basil & Mandarin Candle: the Basil is very old-school—a fragrance I grew up with It’s very sumptuous and is nice when you’re putting fragrances together Red Rose is a fragrance that’s very feminine Peony & Blush Suede Body Creme + Orange Blossom Cologne: “This combination would probably be the prettiest Tuberose Angelica Cologne + Orange Blossom Cologne: note: Poppy’s limited-edition fragrance set for the brand] and the Orange Blossom Cologne is nice and light The combination can be whatever you want it to be.” “One really unexpected one that I never knew is when you put fragrance onto your wrist and you literally empty out the bottle all over you Then the fragrance walks into the room before you even do when you’re even just still a little bit damp “I was really inspired by wearing Orange Blossom Cologne to my wedding Date Night: “Incense & Cedrat Cologne is my favorite It’s not too far away from Tuberose Angelica for me I need to give this one a little bit of an edge… Maybe Pomegranate Noir Sometimes I think it’s a little bit masculine.” Crazy Workday: “I would always turn to Red Roses It’s the fragrance I get the most compliments on I feel like if you’re going into an audition or a meeting and I feel like Red Roses could be that talking point I’d say 90 percent of the time that I wear it Weekend Getaway: “Definitely Wood Sage & Sea Salt they have these beautiful orange blossom trees Night Out: “I would say Peony & Blush Suede It reminds me of being with my girlfriends London: “I would definitely say Basil & Neroli it reminds me of sort of wet pavement and late nights.” “I wore a certain fragrance to fashion week and it will always remind me of the shows I saw or being with that one person I love the sensory overload you get with fragrance.” You know that thing where Valentine's Day is coming up and the fact that we can never get enough of love we're launching a brand new video series A cross between the Newlywed Game and indulging in a good old-fashioned love story;

ON WHAT SETS CHANTECAILLE APART FROM EVERY OTHER BEAUTY BRAND OUT THERE: with different scientists and technical labs chosen for their strengths in particular aspects in our business our skincare in Switzerland and all of our fragrance in France." "If I don’t start with a good Earl Grey tea I’m making an effort to try to go out for lunch because if you have lunch with someone I’m French–we always have lunch in France!" because I am dealing with all the different aspects of the business Dealing and communicating with our international offices take a large part of the day is sitting down with people and creating new campaigns Our job is very varied because we do so many different things It’s not just creating a beautiful eye shadow or beautiful cream which is why it’s so much fun." ON WHAT MAKES THEIR LATEST BIO LIFTING CREAM+ A TOTAL GAME-CHANGER: "This is a product that we’ve worked on for a long time because it was one of our richest creams for anti-aging Daphne Stem Cell Extract and Raspberry Stem Cell Extract the most powerful science to give the face a real 3-D lift Lifting the face isn’t an easy thing to do–but accomplishing it with a cream that is suitable for most skin types is a true feat." ON THE INTENSE R&D PROCESS BEHIND THEIR LATEST AND GREATEST (THEY CREATED ACTUAL STEM CELLS there have been incredible new developments in the world of science and we have been on the forefront of using these discoveries creating new plant stem cells that are targeted to getting results on lifting and protecting the skin The R&D process was all about working with new technology and gathering new research from all around the world using new plant stem cells clearly directed towards collagen enhancement."

Right now, I am using a couple drops of our Bio Lifting Serum and our new Bio Lifting Cream + ON THE BIGGEST LESSONS SHE'S LEARNED IN GROWING THE BRAND: ON HER BIGGEST SUCCESSES (AND HOW THEY HAVE TO DO WITH BEING FRENCH): "Foundation was always a huge success for us We built our brand on highly neutral and natural looking skin I believe in natural skin and I don’t like heavy coverage Future Skin and Just Skin are completely innovative types of products that we revolutionized and created a huge customer following Skincare has been enormously successful for us People are amazed at the quality and the results We have developed a huge cult following for our skincare all over the world The other thing that is always very successful for us is our eyeshadow palettes which are the base for discussions on problems that are extremely urgent in the world They are always focused on an endangered species with particular stress at the time or an issue within our planet that needs to be explained and highlighted We feel very fortunate that our business can be the spokesperson for those who don’t have a voice it is what gets me up in the morning and makes me want to continue working as hard as I do." ON THE STRUGGLES OF HEADING UP YOUR OWN BEAUTY BUSINESS: "The only struggle in running your own business is the multi-faceted questions that arise everyday It is very complicated being a manufacturer a voice and a distributor all at the same time Most people who start their own company usually give up because of the sheer overwhelming quantity of work that comes with owning your own business It will soon be 17 years and I’m not bored yet!" "The biggest perk of my job is that I can make my own decisions." ON HER APPROACH TO AGING (& THE BEAUTY INDUSTRY AS A WHOLE): Frankly you don’t believe it and maybe that’s the best approach I believe in doing what you can to make yourself happy but not putting too much energy into the concept of aging It should allow you to feel amazingly good about yourself." "I stay innovative by constantly reading "I’m always reading 2 or 3 books at the same time I’m reading West With the Night by Beryl Markham I also just read Circling the Sun by Paula McLain which is written about Beryl Markham and just came out recently I’m also reading my friend Carl Safina’s book which is about what animals really think and feel I read The Economist and I get BBC News on my iPad everyday I literally run through all of the fashion magazines ON HOW DIGITIZATION IS CHANGING THE BEAUTY INDUSTRY: it’s not really changing the beauty industry The beauty industry is still based on human contact It’s one of the only businesses where the relationship between the person who sells you a product and yourself is key The digital age hasn’t replaced that–it can inform you about products The human relationship is still extremely important." ON THE BEST CAREER ADVICE SHE'S EVER RECEIVED: When you launch a new store or new product but I always practice this: be nice." ON HER ADVICE TO ANYONE ASPIRING TO WORK IN BEAUTY: Try to learn about the people you are interviewing before you meet them "This holiday we will transport you to the Himalaya's BY Matt BobkinPublished Sep 24, 2019 Be the first to get our biggest stories delivered to your inbox.

Photos and graphics subject to third party copyright used with permission or © Imperial College London. Scientists say we are living in the loneliest era of human civilisation. Dallas Green, aka City & Colour, tells Lauren Baxter why his "pill for loneliness" will always be music. To be alone is not the same as being lonely; it is a neutral disposition. “Somebody gave me shit the other day when I was doing an interview,” Green laughs. “She was like, ‘How can you call the record A Pill For Loneliness and then the first line of the record be, “I'd rather walk alone”?’ I was like, ‘Well sorry, there's a difference between being lonely and being alone.’” For Green, his “pill” for loneliness has always been music: “Music has always been this thing that I could look to whether it's writing or listening to it, and I think that there's a lot of people that would agree with me and feel the same way.” "Fuck, I can't believe we're living in a world where we are so alone that we're trying to create a pill to get rid of it." The album, his sixth and first since 2015, is described in the press release as being a lot of dark songs wrapped in beautiful sounds, something Green affirms is an “apt description”: “I always sort of write melancholic type songs. It’s what I do to get myself out of those moods [but] I always try to make it a little bit hopeful. And I always try to make the songs somewhat ‘pretty’ sounding to be a juxtaposition of what I’m singing about.”  It’s “pretty” of course but also the most expansive we’ve heard Green sound in solo form. “It’s definitely the most, for lack of a better word, epic sounding record I’ve ever made,” he says. “I mean, I love music like that and I’m always interested in trying something a little bit different than what I’ve done. But I still wanted to sound like me.” Wandering is a motif that comes up again and again in Green’s songwriting but he tells us “Canada will always be [his] home”. “Whenever I come back home after a long tour, or even a short trip, if I'm not in Canada, I feel it. As soon as I get back across the border, I just feel it. You feel home. And I'm very happy about that. I'm very lucky to feel that way about where I'm from. But you have to want to wander in order to survive this style of living... Being on the road, it's a difficult way to live. I feel like it's also home in the same way.” After living in Nashville, returning home to Toronto meant Green was able to reunite with Alexisonfire and release the band’s first music in nearly a decade. They had initially broken up because “creatively [Green] wanted to go explore another side of [his] musical brain”.  “It was great to be back playing with each other and actually working on new material. I don't know if any of us thought we would ever do that again,” he admits.  A period apart also saw each member bringing new experiences into the studio. “The last time we were in the studio together was about ten years ago. I think between myself and Wade [MacNeil], and Jordan [Hastings] our drummer, we've been in the studio non-stop since doing other projects. So it was cool to go back in after ten years of having more experience on that side of things as well.” Green just flew across the world to play an exclusive show as part of Brisbane Festival. “Anybody that knows me knows that I would jump at any chance to go to Australia,” he laughs. True to his word, he’ll be back in April next year.  This article was published more than 10 years ago Moving to another province for school is not considered radical, even if it is unpopular. When picking a school, few of my friends thought about the physical location of their school. Only 1 in 10 Canadian undergraduates elect to study outside of their home province When I decided to study in Toronto the response from friends and family was muted with the exception of a few obligatory jokes at the East's expense Some questioned it: "Doesn't British Columbia offer all the same stuff?" Others accepted the decision but considered it basically superficial: "I guess it makes sense to change the scenery once in a while." Both responses were backed-up by the same assumption: There is little difference between school here and school there I accepted the conventional wisdom and chose to attend the University of Toronto because they had programs I liked Three years later I am happy with the decision but also realize that I did not consider at the time just how much of a challenge moving would be high-school seniors should consider moving 'in-broad' more seriously and more often than the numbers suggest that they do When I first awoke in my Toronto dorm room things looked similar to home and I was confident I could take on Ontario as a British Columbian Ontario took on the eerie feeling of a once familiar house now inhabited by strangers Everything looked the same as back home – if a bit better dressed – but functioned differently Discussions about skiing now had limited social purchase Everybody wanted to know what everybody else ' does' Their triviality didn't make them any less dizzying to internalize At times it felt existentially challenging to change my perspective old friends would note that my priorities no longer seemed entirely 'B.C.' – an unthinkable prospect for a K-town lifer Living in Toronto distilled my vague nostalgia and angst about home into clear likes and dislikes Now absent the apple trees and the relaxed attitudes of B.C.'s interior Stripped of the beach-going social scene that I always said was one of Kelowna's best features Perhaps the greatest take-away from the whole experience has been a sense of personal identity which goes deeper than the ground I stand on Something about being caught in the middle – breaking-in at the University of Toronto despite being 'from out West' while remaining engaged and happy at home despite my sometimes unfortunate status as 'Mr Toronto' led to a new sense of self-efficacy The extent of these differences must vary from province to province and from city to city some of the stumbling blocks I've encountered here are facets of university life as opposed to Ontarian quirks I believe the principle is a sound one: Students in our country may benefit from grappling with more of it Hayden Rodenkirchen is a Student
