Detour on Route to a Movie Dudendance Theatre, 2019, duration 30 minutes. Shot on location in Argentina, Detour stems from a project originally shot in 2002. Loosely based on Jean Genet’s The Maids, the very minimal action follows a day in the life of a manservant. The relationship of the servant and his mistress unfolds through the layering of the protagonists’ voices. The footage is framed in small, claustrophobic spaces giving the characters a theatrical presence. Live and recorded sound will be interwoven during the film’s premiere screening; sound score and live musical collaboration by Fabiana Galante.

  • Reflections on the Delmar Hotel and the Demise of the Catskills
    Reflections on the Delmar Hotel and the Demise of the Catskills pp. 198-213 in Philip Brown, edited, In the Catskills: A Century of the Jewish Experience in “The Mountains.” New York: Columbia University Press, 2002. Jerry A. Jacobs 727 S. Latches Lane Merion, PA 19066 610-664-7132 [email protected] For many years I rarely discussed my parents’ hotel, but lately I find myself mentioning it more often. As I settle into my forties and watch my two little girls grow up, I wonder how to tell them what it meant to me to grow up in the Catskills. When I had the chance to read Phil Brown’s book, Catskill Culture, I admired his ability to come to terms with this period in his life. I thought that perhaps it was time to take a stab at it myself. And to try to understand how the Catskills vanished so quickly and so completely that an archive had to be established to ensure that some traces survive. In our family there was often talk about writing a book about the hotel. But how to capture the zaniness, the colorful characters, the exhausting routine and the special camaraderie that made up the Delmar Hotel? We would try organizing it around a day-in-the-life. My mom rose at six to begin to prepare for breakfast, first for the staff, then for the guests. My dad bantered with a guest who was up at dawn waiting to complain about something askew. The day ended at 11 PM as the nightly performance in the casino drew to a close and the last trays in the tea room, where guests would repair after the show, were put away.

    The Waterboys L’électron libre du rock irlandais Good Luck, Seeker Cooking Vinyl Contact scène Naïade Productions www.naiadeproductions.com 1 [email protected] / +33 (0)2 99 85 44 04 / +33 (0)6 23 11 39 11 Biographie The Waterboys est un groupe de musique créé en 1983 par Mike Scott. Les membres du groupe, passés et présents, sont essentiellement écossais et irlandais. Le groupe voyagea et élut domicile dans différentes villes telles que Londres, Dublin, An Spidéal, New York et Findhorn. The Waterboys a abordé différents styles musicaux durant son existence, mais la majeure partie de sa musique peut être décrite comme un mélange de musique folk celtique et de rock ‘n’ roll, ou folk rock. Après dix années d’enregistrements et de tournées, la formation musicale se sépara au début des années 90 et Mike Scott poursuivit une carrière solo. Reformé en 2000, The Waterboys reprit son rythme d’enregistremens d’albums et de tournées. Le leader du groupe souligna lui-même une continuité entre le groupe The Waterboys et son travail personnel, affirmant que « pour moi, il n’y a pas de différence entre Mike Scott et The Waterboys; ils signifient tous deux la même chose. Ils sont à la fois moi-même et ceux qui m’accompagnent durant mes tournées musicales ». Leur quinzième album Where The Action Is est sorti le 24 mai 2019 et a annoncé le retour des Waterboys sur scène. A l’été suivant, le groupe a parcouru de nombreuses scènes françaises pour le plus grand plaisir du public ! « Pour moi, il n’y a pas de différence entre Mike Scott et The Waterboys; ils signifient tous deux la même chose.

  • George Macdonald As Rock Star? John Pennington

John Pennington Follow this and additional works at: http://digitalcommons.snc.edu/northwind Recommended Citation Pennington, John (2006) "George MacDonald as Rock Star?," North Wind: A Journal of George MacDonald Studies: Vol. 25 , Article 10. Available at: http://digitalcommons.snc.edu/northwind/vol25/iss1/10 This Notes and Queries is brought to you for free and open access by the English at Digital Commons @ St. Norbert College. It has been accepted for inclusion in North Wind: A Journal of George MacDonald Studies by an authorized editor of Digital Commons @ St. Norbert College. For more information, please contact [email protected]. N&Q George MacDonald as Rock Star? John Pennington e all remember the chapter “Nanny’s Dream” from At the Back of Wthe North Wind: Nanny finds herself inside the moon where she looks at “such lots of stars, all so big, and shining as hard as ever they could!” Diamond tells her that “the little girl-angels had been polishing them,” which prompts Nanny to state: “What nonsense you do talk!” Maybe I am talking a bit of nonsense equating MacDonald to a rock star. But there is one rock star who aligns himself with MacDonald, finding inspiration for his music in the Victorian writer. So maybe MacDonald is a rock star after all! Mike Scott, the leader of the Scottish band The Waterboys, has been channeling MacDonald’s spirit into his music for years. In its 2003 album Universal Hall, The Waterboys sing in this library I could lose myself transports, gateways on every shelf dark words, bright words or ice and fire as if an angel did descend and use the writer as a pen for here are “avalon of the heart” “flight into freedom” macdonald’s “lilith” and “fantastes” [sic] lewis’s “perelandra” The refrain of the song is the following: “ i sacrifice my power on the altar of your love / that it may be born again on another world.” The song also uses the images of the stairs and tower, which is most certainly a homage to MacDonald.

  • Jacques' Proposal for Huntly
    Science of Place A brief methodology: Consulting the community of Huntly Keeping to the objective of searching for a valid brand identity for Huntly, I would like to follow a methodology that remains true to my normal mode of work and try to steer away from the clichés often found in the marketing industry. I have drawn up some flexible guidelines: An open-minded approach. Going to a strange place gives one the advantage of experiencing it with fresh eyes. To strengthen this element, I am going to consciously ignore any preconceived expectations of Huntly. I suggest spending at least the first week merely observing town life and settling in without forcing any agendas. Close consultation with the project partners. Only after allowing the first week of “clean” observation, to sit down and get a clear vision of what it is that the ATP and Deveron Arts want to achieve with this project. Is the idea to position Huntly as a fashionable getaway destination, a rural family town, a business hub, a cosmopolitan community, a “green” town or a boomtown, or a combination of all the above (or none of the above?). What would be viable and realistic and what are possible concerns or expected pitfalls. Embracing ordinary, day-to-day life. To get an insight in the dynamics of the Huntly “family scene” and the various age groups thereof by engaging the community with my wife and children. Asking questions without questionnaires. Rather focusing on informal conversation while socialising. (What do people really think of their town?) Creating means for community participation.

It implies two very dangerous presumptions: one, that people are generally unhappy with who they are (dangerous because it might be true), and two, that there are people out there who we might actually look up to (dangerous because it might not be true). Let's focus on the latter idea: it basically says that there are no role models for us. A depressing concept, but not nearly as depressing as the idea that people don't like themselves. Oddly enough, the two may be connected: if you have a role model to emulate, you see the positive characteristics of the model in yourself.
