  • 'Fab' Tribute to Puppet Genius Gerry Anderson
    P News Release RS 6 December 2010 ROYAL MAIL PAYS ‘FAB’ TRIBUTE TO PUPPET GENIUS GERRY ANDERSON AND THUNDERBIRDS ARE GO, ON ‘MOVING’ MINI SHEET The puppet characters in Stingray, Joe 90, Captain Scarlett and Thunderbirds have enthralled millions since they first arrived on our TV screens in the 1960s, and they are now set to visit our homes again as Royal Mail pays tribute to their creator in a new set of special stamps. Issued on 11 January, FAB: The Genius of Gerry Anderson marks the 50th anniversary of these ground-breaking programmes, which began with Supercar in 1961. The set of stamps also includes Royal Mail’s first ‘motion stamps’ on a miniature sheet which using microlenticular printing reveals the Thunderbirds take off when tilted back and forth. Gerry Anderson said: “I feel incredibly proud that my work has been chosen to appear on a set of commemorative stamps and to see actual animation of the opening scenes of Thunderbirds on motion stamps, for me, is wonderful.” The stamps, split between 1st Class and 97p values, feature six of his most popular shows: Supercar, Fireball XL5, Stingray, Thunderbirds, Captain Scarlet and Joe 90, highlighting the ingenious characters and incredible vehicles created by Anderson. For many of course, it’s his most celebrated creation, Thunderbirds, that we remember, especially its dramatic 5! 4! 3! 2! 1! opening sequence. Now people can relive that moment through a four-stamp miniature sheet. The countdown begins with Thunderbird 5 - the Earth-orbiting space station keeping a watchful eye from within the miniature sheet’s border, whilst a moving image of lift off is revealed for Thunderbirds 1, 2, 3 and 4.

  • THUNDERBIRDS Written by Peter Hewitt, William Osborne & Michael
    THUNDERBIRDS Written by Peter Hewitt, William Osborne & Michael McCullers Animated scenes of the Thunderbirds on various rescues begin to play as some of the cast and crew names show up. NARRATOR From a secret island in the South Pacific, the courageous Tracy family run an organization called International Rescue. When disaster strikes, anywhere in the world, they are always first on the scene. They go by the name they gave their incredible machines, the Thunderbirds. (Counts down numbers and shows corresponding Thunderbirds) Five, four, three, two, one. Thunderbirds are go! Cuts to live action, Alan Tracy is looking out a school window. But in this family of heroes, there is one son left behind. TEACHER So, gentlemen, we all know that A2 plus B2 equals... C2, that's right. But what happens when we bring in Leonardo Da Vinci's E, F and... (Teacher notices Alan looking out window and not paying attention to the lesson) Mr. Tracy! FERMAT Alan. Alan! Alan's head jerks back from the window and to the teacher who is now standing in front of him. TEACHER How kind of you to come back from outer space, Alan. I trust re-entry wasn't too rough? (Chuckles sarcastically and continues sounding even more annoyed) Here on Earth we've been discussing the Pythagorean theorem. Did any of that happen to sink in? ALAN TRACY I was just... TEACHER Apparently not (she picks up his notebook which he has been doodling in) "Thunderbirds are go." Well, I hope you aren't going anywhere special over spring break, Alan.

  • It Always Gives Watching: the Nothing and the Parahuman in Rilke's Duino
    Filozofski vestnik Volume/Letnik XXVI • Number/Številka 2 • 2005 • 161–171 IT ALWAYS GIVES WATCHING: THE NOTHING AND THE PARAHUMAN IN RILKE’S DUINO ELEGIES Miglena Nikolchina A well known story has it that Rainer Maria Rilke heard the first sentence of what was to become the first of his Duino Elegies while a strong Bora was blow- ing up from the sea. It was January 1912 and Rilke was staying at the Duino Castle on the Adriatic as a guest of Princess Marie von Thurn und Taxis- Hohenlohe. It is she who provides the anecdote according to which, while Rilke was walking by the sea, it seemed to him that in the raging of the storm a voice had called to him: ‘Who, if I cried out, would hear me among the angelic orders?’…. He took out his notebook, which he always carried with him, and wrote down these words …1 A voice from the storm – a disembodied voice without a source – cries out a question to Rilke. Instead of answering – and, indeed, although an- gelic perception of the world will run as one of the persistent queries of the Elegies, whom and in what capacity could Rilke answer regarding the hearing of angels? – Rilke writes the question down. The question does not expect an answer and in a way hopes that there would be no answer: for, we are told, if by any chance an angel would press the poet to his heart, the poet would be consumed in the angel’s stronger existence. The question cried out at the poet by nobody is reflected back as the poet’s own question to nobody.

  • In the Great Tradition of Postponed NASA Launches, the York Maze
    THUNDERBIRDS ARE GROW! A Thunderbirds fan has created an amazing tribute to 50 years of the iconic show by producing the World’s biggest ever Thunderbird 2, carved into an 15 acre field of growing maize plants near York, England. Tom Pearcy came up with the idea after hearing about the 50th anniversary. Says Tom Pearcy, “As a kid I remember watching Gerry Anderson’s great TV shows like Stingray & Captain Scarlet, but Thunderbirds was my favourite. I wanted to do something big to mark the 50th anniversary. As a child Thunderbird 2 captured my imagination, I think it’s the most iconic of all the Thunderbirds and being green it works perfectly carved into the field of maize plants!” Measuring over 350m (1150ft) long, Thunderbird 2 has been painstakingly carved out of over 1 million living maize plants. It took Mr Pearcy and his team of helpers nearly a week to cut out the 6km of pathways in his 15 acre field near York to form the giant Thunderbird image together with the words ‘Thunderbirds Are 50’. The pathways in the field form an intricate maze for visitors to explore. The York Maze is believed to be the largest maze in Europe and one of the largest in the world. Jamie Anderson, son of Thunderbirds creator the late Gerry Anderson, was so impressed when he heard about Mr Pearcy’s amazing maze that he had to come to York to see it for himself. Jamie took a helicopter flight over the giant 15 acre maize maze to see the design.

  • Rites of Passage: Dionysus and the Chorus of Satyrs1
    Universidade de São Paulo, JOHN C. DAWSEY São Paulo, São Paulo, Brazil. RITES OF PASSAGE: DIONYSUS AND THE CHORUS OF SATYRS1 ABSTRACT At the origins of Greek tragedy, in the chorus of satyrs of Dionysian theater, Greeks stared into horror. This observation by Nietzsche is the start- ing point for a discussion of rites of passage and, particularly, of liminal experience. Contribu- tions from contemporary performance and the- ater highlight aspects of this experience. So also, the studies of Julia Kristeva deserve attention. A hypothesis inspired by the writings of Walter Benjamin emerges at the end: vital elements of rites of passage and Dionysian theater have to do with what may be called “margins of margins”. keywords In focus, the double removal of masks (everyday rites of passage, and extraordinary), the subterranean regions of margins of symbols, and the experience of f(r)iction (with margins, f(r)iction, the r between parentheses) in relations between astounding or masks and bodies. Paraphrasing Pascal, the body extraordinary has its reasons of which culture knows not. At everyday margins of margins a double optic is formed: the experience, astounding (or extraordinary) everyday, no sur- corpoiesis prise in the astounding. 1. This article results from research developed as part of the Project “Mother images: drama and montage” (Imagens de mães: drama e montage), Processo CNPq 308691/2012-1. 159 São Paulo, v. 1, n. 1, p. 159 -178, june (2016) I. DIONYSUS AND THE CHORUS OF SATYRS: STARING INTO HORROR I would like to invite listeners on a trip: a discussion about rites of passage.2 Our guide: one of the gods of Ancient Greece, the god of wine Dionysus.
