ARROT/YSOF DESTRE6: REUGION DEATH.RELIGION & CONSOLATION Ken Lake Let's start with a very brief commenton AOD #5, writtenunusually before I have even read it! This summer (1990) | spent a lot of time undergoing manipulationof my neck, only to be told that it is falling apart. The bones are degenerating,already I have"the neck of an eighty-year-old",and I am unlikely to see this decadeout. Suddenly,death looms: l'm nevergoing to do mostof the things I want, osteo-arthritisalready stops me from enjoyingsome of them,and penuryhardly helps. Do I reallywant to readwhat peoplenot faced by the immediateand certain threat of death have to say about it? \A/hatdoes it mean to me? And does the declaredtheme of AOD #6, Religion,actually have anythingto say to me or indeedto do with life,death or anythingelse useful? To me, death means simply waste: there's a helluva lot of shitstining antagonismto receivedideas lurking in Ken Lake'smind waiting for time to get out; there's a lot of useful information,and nearly sixty years of meaningful experiencewaiting to be shared.And beforeyou can do more than skim the surface,the bodyand the brainare to decayand be lostforever. Waste indeed! Don't bug me with sentiment I've no room for it. Sure, I enjoy good experiences,I gain emotionaland aestheticpleasure from some of them. But what kind of pleasurableemotion do you expectme to radiatenoW'? | mean,be fair - intellect, ratiocination,philosophy even; investigation,extrapolation, wonderment,these are still around,being triggered all the time. l'm willing and readyto give and take love,on a one-to-onebasis anyhow, but I am too full of angerto be capableof lovingthe world,its people- mostof whomare so fuckin' ignorant,bigoted and stupidthat I have no sympathyfor them - or even specific nations,tribes, groups or selfdeclaredcategories like fandom,lesbians, stamp collectorsor poll tax protestors. Do peoplethreatened by deathtum to religion?| dunno- I'm the Odd Man Out becausereligion has alwaysfascinated me an) I've marchedwith the SallyArmy, studied with the Witnesses,argued with ^ray. the Mormons (a singularly stupidgroup), been boredby the Bookof CommonPrayer, gloried in the poetry of the Upanishads,been repelled by the Koran,wondered at the TibetanBook of the Dead,and manya timeand oft lost myselfin the celebrationof the Mass,the central"mystery" of Christianity. For severaldecades l've taken the opportunityoccasionally to attend the Ukranian Uniat liturgy - this is basicallythe Russian Orthodoxone with a Ukranianaccent plus prayersfor the Pope, more recentlybeing celebratedin modern Ukranian rather than Old Slavonic, so l've had to learn another languageto sing along. I sometimesattend the RussianOrthodox Gathedral, and l'm a memberof the LatinMass Society $'trich celebrates the old Tridentine rite ratherthan that boringpopulist modem post-Vatican ll service. Just recentlyl've rediscoveredthe ArmenianChurch and, with the help of a liturgygiven me by AvedonCarol's parents, l'm leamingto sing in that obscure languagethe many beautifulchants of this even more obscureyet pioneering church.So l'm spoiledfor choice,if religiousexperien@s are wfratI seek. ARROWSOF DESIRE6: REUGION DEATH.RELIGION AND CONSOLANON KEN LAKE Why shouldI wantthem? Do I believein God,in the Godheadof Jesus,in the dogmasof the Catholicor any otherFaith? Do I supportthe Catholicswith their celibateclergy, the Orthodoxwhere all priestsare maniedbut all bishops celibate(coming from the monasteries),or the Armenianswho feel it's up to eachpriest to makeup his ownmind? Do I believein the infallibilityof the Pope, the collegialityof the Orthodoxmetropolitans or the separatenessthe Armenians claimamong their greatest gifts? Do I care? At varyingtimes in the past,all these - and hundredsof other - theological problemsand conceptshave grasped my attention.l've read this and that, studiedthis and that,asked the rightand wrongquestions and been givensome very dodgy answers.Why should religion be trammeledwith all these complexitiesanyway? Thereare two separateways of lookingat religion.Some see it as "the Word of God" settingout specificpattems which must be followed,specific dogmas whichmust be believed,with the threatof etemaldamnation - or at leasta nasty time in Purgatory- if you can't bring yourselfto swallowprecisely this yeafs versionof this sect's beliefs and practices.That side of religion has caused probablymore wars, deaths,tortures, unhappinesses and the destructionof more livesand soulsthan anythingelse in this world,and l've cometo feel that even if any one set of beliefsis correct,and even if someGod has actuallylaid themdown, we are betteroff ignoringthem. That may sound harsh:who am I to throw out the produc{of the love, the devotion,the researchand studyand dedicationof millionsof wonderfulpeople?

  • How to Re-Shine Depeche Mode on Album Covers
    Sociology Study, December 2015, Vol. 5, No. 12, 920‐930 D doi: 10.17265/2159‐5526/2015.12.003 DAVID PUBLISHING Simple but Dominant: How to Re­shine Depeche Mode on Album Covers After 80’s Cinla Sekera Abstract The aim of this paper is to analyze the album covers of English band Depeche Mode after 80’s according to the principles of graphic design. Established in 1980, the musical style of the band was turned from synth‐pop to new wave, from new wave to electronic, dance, and alternative‐rock in decades, but their message stayed as it was: A non‐hypocritical, humanist, and decent manner against what is wrong and in love sincerely. As a graphic design product, album covers are pre‐print design solutions of two dimensional surfaces. Graphic design, as a design field, has its own elements and principles. Visual elements and typography are the two components which should unite with the help of the six main principles which are: unity/harmony; balance; hierarchy; scale/proportion; dominance/emphasis; and similarity and contrast. All album covers of Depeche Mode after 80’s were designed in a simple but dominant way in order to form a unique style. On every album cover, there are huge color, size, tone, and location contrasts which concluded in simple domination; domination of a non‐hypocritical, humanist, and decent manner against what is wrong and in love sincerely. Keywords Graphic design, album cover, design principles, dominance, Depeche Mode Design is the formal and functional features graphic design are line, shape, color, value, texture, determination process, made before the production of and space.

  • The Sounds of the Universe Transcript
    The Sounds of the Universe Transcript Date: Wednesday, 23 November 2011 - 1:00PM Location: Museum of London 23 November 2011 The Sounds of the Universe Professor Carolin Crawford Introduction Astronomy is a very visual subject. We’re all familiar with – and captivated by – the stunning images of stars, nebulae and galaxies from both ground-based and space-based telescopes, or pictures direct from the surface of Mars taken by robotic spacecraft. But vision is only part of the whole human experience. In this talk I am going take a different approach to appreciating the universe, through the sense of sound. Astronomers have long realised that sound waves are ‘out there’, and that they play a part in the physical processes going on in space. But it’s only over the last twenty last years or so that the various roles of sound in space has been recognised and actively pursued in astronomical research. In this talk I’ll be looking at how: • Sound can be used a diagnostic of cosmic phenomena, indirectly tracing the behaviour of astronomical objects: whether the presence of lightning on Jupiter, or the physical structure inside distant stars. • Sound can itself be an important physical process, capable of transferring significant amounts of energy across vast volumes of space; for example, the transfer of energy from a black hole out into a surrounding cluster of galaxies. • Sound can be used to convey and illustrate some aspects of astronomy very effectively, particularly radio signals converted into sound. It’s much easier to appreciate features of a signal like the variation in its frequency, or detect the pattern of a repeated beat by ‘hearing’ it.

  • Rock Album Discography Last Up-Date: September 27Th, 2021
    Rock Album Discography Last up-date: September 27th, 2021 Rock Album Discography “Music was my first love, and it will be my last” was the first line of the virteous song “Music” on the album “Rebel”, which was produced by Alan Parson, sung by John Miles, and released I n 1976. From my point of view, there is no other citation, which more properly expresses the emotional impact of music to human beings. People come and go, but music remains forever, since acoustic waves are not bound to matter like monuments, paintings, or sculptures. In contrast, music as sound in general is transmitted by matter vibrations and can be reproduced independent of space and time. In this way, music is able to connect humans from the earliest high cultures to people of our present societies all over the world. Music is indeed a universal language and likely not restricted to our planetary society. The importance of music to the human society is also underlined by the Voyager mission: Both Voyager spacecrafts, which were launched at August 20th and September 05th, 1977, are bound for the stars, now, after their visits to the outer planets of our solar system (mission status: https://voyager.jpl.nasa.gov/mission/status/). They carry a gold- plated copper phonograph record, which comprises 90 minutes of music selected from all cultures next to sounds, spoken messages, and images from our planet Earth. There is rather little hope that any extraterrestrial form of life will ever come along the Voyager spacecrafts. But if this is yet going to happen they are likely able to understand the sound of music from these records at least.

    DVD Review: Depeche Mode - The Dark Progression | Lair of the Gree... http://writer.fitzhome.com/music/dvd-review-depeche-mode-the-dark-pro... DVD Review: Depeche Mode - The Dark Progression Posted by fitz in Documentary, Music on Jun 29 If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting! Hi all… When I went to college in the late 1980s, I was introduced to the music Depeche Mode (DM). There was a guy on my dorm floor who listened to DM 24-7 at an earth-shaking volume. I didn’t immediately take to their music. But after a couple of years, Violator was released and somehow the world changed. Violator connected with some dark part of my being I didn’t really know I had up to that point. Violator was the beginning of my love for DM. Though the media went crazy for “Personal Jesus,” I was drawn to “Enjoy the Silence,” “Policy of Truth,” and “Clean”. From then on, when a new DM album was released, I’d pick it up after a couple of months and digest it… Songs of Faith and Devotion and Ultra also rang true with me with songs such as “Walking in My Shoes” and “Home”. Exciter didn’t do much for me and I think I purchased one track from Playing the Angel, so my love for new DM music faded a bit early in this decade. However, the recent release of Sounds of the Universe has me flying high again with songs like “In Chains,” “Wrong,” and “Peace.” Suffice it to say, I’m a DM fan.
