  • 2 the Robo-Toilet Revolution the Actress and the Gorilla
    George, Rose, 2014, The Big Necessity: The Unmentionable World of Human Waste and Why It Matters (pp. 39-64). Henry Holt and Co.. Kindle Edition. 2 THE ROBO-TOILET REVOLUTION THE ACTRESS AND THE GORILLA The flush toilet is a curious object. It is the default method of excreta disposal in most of the industrialized, technologically advanced world. It was invented either five hundred or two thousand years ago, depending on opinion. Yet in its essential workings, this everyday banal object hasn’t changed much since Sir John Harington, godson of Queen Elizabeth I, thought his godmother might like something that flushed away her excreta, and devised the Ajax, a play on the Elizabethan word jakes, meaning privy. The greatest improvements to date were made in England in the later years of the eighteenth century and the early years of the next by the trio of Alexander Cumming (who invented a valve mechanism), Joseph Bramah (a Yorkshireman who improved on Cumming’s valve and made the best lavatories to be had for the next century), and Thomas Crapper (another Yorkshireman who did not invent the toilet but improved its parts). In engineering terms, the best invention was the siphonic flush, which pulls the water out of the bowl and into the pipe. For the user, the S-bend was the godsend, because the water that rested in the bend created a seal that prevented odor from emerging from the pipe. At the height of Victorian invention, when toilets were their most ornate and decorated with the prettiest pottery, patents for siphonic flushes, for example, were being requested at the rate of two dozen or so a year.

  • Minor Victories
    PRESSEMITTEILUNG VOM 22.06.2016 Minor Victories Minor Victories, die neu formierte Band bestehend aus Rachel Goswell (Slowdive), Stuart Braithwaite (Mogwai), Editors Gitarrist Justin Lockey und seinem Bruder James Lockey, haben mit dem bildgewaltigen Video zur Vorabsingle “A Hundred Ropes” schon für Aufsehen gesorgt. Jetzt legen sie mit ihrer Leadsingle “Scattered Ashes (Song For Richard)” nach, die James Graham von The Twilight Sad featured. Was ursprünglich nur von Justin als Idee gedacht war - nämlich die Aufnahme einer extremen Noise EP - endete schlussendlich in einem 10-Song starken Longplayer von vier Bandmitgliedern, die zuvor noch nie zusammen im selben Raum waren. Es war ein glücklicher Zufall, ein Wink des Schicksals, der die vier Musiker zusammenbringen sollte. Nur Rachel Goswell und Justin Lockey kannten sich flüchtig. Als Justin an die Songs der zukünftigen EP dachte, wollte er unbedingt eine zarte Frauenstimme dabei haben, die dem ganzen Rock Leben einhaucht. Rachel war mit im Boot und brachte Stuart als weiteren Gitarristen mit ins Spiel. Als Justin seinem Bruder James das erste Rohmaterial zeigte, fügte dieser noch eigene Ideen dazu. Die Band war somit komplett! Minor Victories bilden auf ihrem Album ein breites Spektrum an Musikrichtungen. Gerade weil sich durch diese fruchtbare Zusammenarbeit für alle Bandmitglieder neue musikalische Perspektiven ergeben haben, wissen Minor Victories auf ihrem Album definitiv zu überraschen! “Starting a band where some of the people have never met each other is something I’ve never heard of,” sagt Stuart. James fügt hinzu, “I’ve made a record with people I’d never have imagined I would have the chance to work with,” während Rachel es wie folgt beschreibt “the most exciting thing I’ve done to date.” Am 03.
