Should Big Data Change the Modelling Paradigm in Official Statistics?
Statistical Journal of the IAOS 31 (2015) 193–202 193 DOI 10.3233/SJI-150892 IOS Press “Re-make/Re-model”: Should big data change the modelling paradigm in official statistics?1 Barteld Braaksmaa,∗ and Kees Zeelenbergb aInnovation Program, Statistics Netherlands, 2490 HA Den Haag, The Netherlands bMethods and Statistical Policies, Statistics Netherlands, 2490 HA Den Haag, The Netherlands Abstract. Big data offers many opportunities for official statistics: for example increased resolution, better timeliness, and new statistical outputs. But there are also many challenges: uncontrolled changes in sources that threaten continuity, lack of identifiers that impedes linking to population frames, and data that refers only indirectly to phenomena of statistical interest. We discuss two approaches to deal with these challenges and opportunities. First, we may accept big data for what they are: an imperfect, yet timely, indicator of phenomena in society. These data exist and that’s why they are interesting. Secondly, we may extend this approach by explicit modelling. New methods like machine-learning techniques can be considered alongside more traditional methods like Bayesian techniques. National statistical institutes have always been reluctant to use models, apart from specific cases like small-area estimates. Based on the experience at Statistics Netherlands we argue that NSIs should not be afraid to use models, provided that their use is documented and made transparent to users. Moreover, the primary purpose of an NSI is to describe society; we should refrain from making forecasts. The models used should therefore rely on actually observed data and they should be validated extensively. Keywords: Big data, model-based statistics 1. -
Bryan Ferry Till Furuvik I Maj 2020
Pressmeddelande 2019-11-13 BRYAN FERRY TILL FURUVIK I MAJ 2020 Den första artisten till Furuviks konsertsommar 2020 är äntligen bokad! Idag kan vi avslöja att ingen mindre än Bryan Ferry är redo att inta Furuviks Stora Scen. Ferry slog igenom med bandet Roxy Music på 70-talet och har sedan dess etablerat sig som en ikonisk och innovativ sångare och låtskrivare. Med en blandning av Sinatra, Gainsbourg och Lou Reed har Bryan Ferry alltid brutit ny mark med sin musik och vi är otroligt stolta över att få välkomna honom till Furuvik den 30 maj kl. 20.00. Med klassiska hits som ”Slave To Love” och “Let’s Stick Together” har Bryan Ferry varit ständigt närvarande inom populärmusiken. Både från starten av 70-talet med Roxy Music och med sin solokarriär som sträckt sig över tre decennier har Ferry aldrig slutat att imponera. Utöver sina egna låtar har han även förmågan att ta låtar från olika genrer och ge dem nytt liv, något som bland annat går att höra på hans rosade album ”Dylanesque” från 2007, en hyllning till Bob Dylan. – Vi är så taggade inför att äntligen kunna släppa artister inför sommaren 2020 och vilken artist att börja med! Bryan Ferry är en riktigt grym bokning och vi ser fram emot när han äntligen kliver ut på Furuviks Stora Scen, säger Nina Tano, vd på Furuvik. Bryan Ferrys senaste album ”Bitter-Sweet” släpptes 2018 och tidigare i år blev han invald i Rock and Roll Hall of Fame som medlem i Roxy Music. Den 30 maj kl. 20.00 tar han över Furuviks Stora Scen. -

Media Release: Thursday 18 th November ROXY MUSIC TO PLAY A DAY ON THE GREEN WITH ORIGINAL LINE UP INCLUDING THE LEGENDARY BRYAN FERRY With support from Nathan Haines Roundhouse Entertainment and Andrew McManus Presents is proud to announce that Roxy Music, consisting of vocalist Bryan Ferry, guitarist Phil Manzanera, saxophonist Andy Mackay and the great Paul Thompson on drums, are coming to New Zealand for one A Day On The Green show only at Villa Maria Estate Winery on Sunday 6 th March. Roxy Music will perform material from their entire catalogue including such hits as, Dance Away , Avalon , Let's Stick Together, Take A Chance With Me , Do the Strand , Angel Eyes , Oh Yeah , In the Midnight Hour , Jealous Guy, Love Is The Drug , More Than This and many more. Distinguished by their visual and musical sophistication and their preoccupation with style and glamour Roxy Music were highly influential, as leading proponents of the more experimental element of glam rock as well as a significant influence on early English punk music. They also provided a model for many new wave acts and the experimental electronic groups of the early 1980s. In 2004, Rolling Stone Magazine ranked Roxy Music on its list of the 100 Greatest Artists of All Time and the band are regarded as one of the most influential art-rock bands in music history. Roxy Music exploded onto the scene in 1972 with their progressive self-titled debut album. The sound challenged the constraints of pop music and was lauded by critics and popular among fans, peaking at #4 on the UK album charts. -

CD Review: Bryan Ferry’S Avonmore
CD Review: Bryan Ferry’s Avonmore Last Monday, former Roxy Music frontman Bryan Ferry released his 15th studio album, Avonmore. The album was produced by longtime Roxy Music/Ferry associate, Rhett Davies, but he also got some help from a long list of talented musicians, most notably Nile Rodgers of Chic (and everything lately) and Flea from the Red Hot Chili Peppers. Nile Rodgers makes his influence known not only by his signature funky, choppy guitar sound that is featured in most of the songs, but an overall sleek tone to the songs and the production. The title track has a driving disco backbeat with impressive bass fills sprinkled throughout that can only be Flea. But occasionally the lushness goes a little too far. “A Special Kind of Guy,” for example, takes the smoothness to a sickly sweet parody level, complete with some tepid wah-wah guitar in the background. Perhaps the overproduction is due to an overblown cast of characters; on “Loop De Li” alone there appears Nile Rodgers, Johnny Marr, well-known blues guitarist Neil Hubbard, Sex Pistols axeman Steve Jones, session guitarist David Williams, and jazz legend Marcus Miller on bass, and that’s not even everybody playing a guitar. Ferry’s status as a UK national treasure is definitely secure, but it seems like he may be a little too focused on partying with rockstars. One of the elements (other than the top-tier musicians) that made Roxy Music so special in the ’70s was Ferry’s somehow-masculine cooing vocal technique. It’s undeniable that age isn’t the best thing for your vocals; unless you’re some kind of immortal weirdo like James Taylor, you probably won’t be hitting the high notes you did in your 20s when you’re 69 (Ferry’s age). -

The songs on aectations, only to evolve into one of the their first two albums often landed like punchlines, most finely controlled and heartfelt bands of fired by guitar, synth, and sax solos as exaggerated as all time.

And strays. And, amid their early ranks were two players – while they drew on common genres – including Bryan Ferry and Brian Eno – who would come to stand glam, free jazz, and art rock – they suered none of among music’s most creative forces.
