  • Canal Convergence Events
    Item 23 CITY COUNCIl REPORT Meeting Date: June 27, 2017 General Plan Element: Economic Vitality General Plan Goal: Sustain Scottsdale as a tourist destination ACTION Adopt Resolution No. 10821 authorizing a FY 2017/18 Tourism Development Fund operating contingency transfer in the amount of $650,000 to the Tourism and Events Department operating budget for use in supporting the 2018 Canal Convergence events. BACKGROUND It started as an idea, a conversation, a meeting and grew into a partnership between the City of Scottsdale, Scottsdale Public Art and Salt River Project. Many others have since joined, all of whom share in the belief that Public Space conceived upon the nature of what supports us, what keeps us here, what inspires our creativity and enables our growth is the reflection of all that is important for sustaining life in this desert city. Canal Convergence is this idea. Since 2012 it has been a place of engagement, a place where international and local artists come together to celebrate a one of a kind community environment and immersive art experience for all, and a new point of pride for Scottsdale residents and businesses. As Canal Convergence began taking shape, the Tourism Strategic Plan adopted by City Council in 2013 outlined the importance of creating a destination event during the tourism industry's shoulder season (May through December). Through the Council appointed Tourism Advisory Task Force (TATF) and Request for Proposal (RFP) process, the city contracted with Webb Management Services to complete a three-phased destination event study. The goal of the study (Webb Report) was to identify events that would: 1.

  • Neotrance and the Psychedelic Festival DC
    Neotrance and the Psychedelic Festival GRAHAM ST JOHN UNIVERSITY OF REGINA, UNIVERSITY OF QUEENSLAND Abstract !is article explores the religio-spiritual characteristics of psytrance (psychedelic trance), attending speci"cally to the characteristics of what I call neotrance apparent within the contemporary trance event, the countercultural inheritance of the “tribal” psytrance festival, and the dramatizing of participants’ “ultimate concerns” within the festival framework. An exploration of the psychedelic festival offers insights on ecstatic (self- transcendent), performative (self-expressive) and re!exive (conscious alternative) trajectories within psytrance music culture. I address this dynamic with reference to Portugal’s Boom Festival.

  • Nature in the Eastern Ore Mountains / Ost-Erzgebirge / Východní Krušnohoří
    Nature in the Eastern Ore Mountains / Ost-Erzgebirge / Východní Krušnohoří A short introductory guide to the Schellerhau conservation training Jens Weber, Grüne Liga Osterzgebirge e.V., [email protected] Diversity might be among the most obvious traits of the scenery in the eastern part of Erzgebirge/Ore Mountains/Krušnohoří. The variety of landscape is mostly made up by an alternation of forests and open spaces on relatively small scales, and the open spaces interspersed with lots of wooded and non-wooded biotopes. In contrast to other mountain ranges of Central Europe, only about 30 % of the region are compact forests. Very typical - and of great conservation value - are meadows, crossed by stone ridges ("Steinrücken"). This sort of landscape diversity offers room for biodiversity, too. The Eastern Ore Mountains are home for nearly 1000 species of vascular plants, about one quarter of plant species in all of Germany. A few of them have their only German occurrence here since the climate conditions resemble more those in central-east European mountain ranges. Because of their natural rarity, but far more because of rapidly changing ecological conditions, about 20 % of the plants got listed in the Red List of Endangered Species. Other groups of organisms show similar numbers: > 1000 species of fungi in the Eastern Ore Mountains (180 species on the Red List), 100 spp. butterflies (60 Red List), 130 spp. birds (40 RL), 60 spp. mammals (20 RL). To save the endangered plant and animal species requires conservation of the great diversity of habitats - created by geological history as well as human land use history.
