"When Music, heavenly maid! was young" the ancients celebrated her with all that fervour and felicity of expression for which they have been so universally and so justly famed; and the moderns, no less ambitious, though more feeble, have offered her all homage, notwithstanding the hoydenish tricks and caprices she has of late dis- played, to the deep regret of all her rational ad- mirers. For my own part, never having tasted of the Pierian spring, and therefore possessing only the cacoethes scribendi, (the zeal without the learning,) I must content myself with observing, in my own plain manner, that in writing an Ac- count of the General State of Music in England — VI PREFACE.

  • He's All Right
    HE’S ALL RIGHT, or a moment, i thought jack Johnson and I were going to pull it off. A co-authored song with a strum-strum, chicka-chicka beat falling into our laps like a big, fat Fmango. All we had to do was find a couple of hammocks and two guitars, and we might have nailed it. Still, we managed to come up with the opening lines together: The prettiest girl I’d ever seen (Jack’s line) She took me to places I’d never been (that line was mine) Before we start riffing, Jack has been talking about the golden moment he first laid eyes on Kim, the woman who would one day become the mother of his three children. It was 1993, and he was in the cafeteria of the University of California, Santa Barbara (UCSB) when fate an- nounced itself. “Yeah, she was the prettiest girl I’d seen,” he says, “not just in the cafeteria but the whole time I’d been at school. I don’t know. I was just really attracted to her right off the bat, and she became my wife.” Johnson was 18 and studying film at UCSB when his rosebud walked by. Remembering the advice a friend had recently given him – “If you like a girl, don’t take your eyes off her” – Johnson did exactly that. “We just locked eyes,” he recalls. “It was out of He’s a wave-riding, a movie.

  • Consuming Nirvana: an Exploration of Surfing Tourist Space
    Consuming Nirvana: An exploration of surfing tourist space. A Thesis Presented By Jess Ponting BSc. M.M. Submitted to the Graduate School of the University of Technology, Sydney in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY January 2008 CERTIFICATION I Jess Ponting, certify that the work contained in this thesis has not been submitted for a degree at any other institution and that it is the original work of the candidate except where sources are acknowledged. 31st January 2008 ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I am grateful to many people who made this inquiry possible. In particular I wish to thank the following. • The University of Technology Sydney’s School of Leisure, Sport and Tourism which provided me with a scholarship that enabled me to research full time. • Vice-Chancellor Ross Milbourne who took a personal interest in my work and who went out on a limb to allow me to carry out field work in Indonesia in the months following the 2002 Bali Bombing. • The Mentawai surf tour operators who provided extremely generous in-kind support for this study, in particular Daniel Spirn, Earnest Egan, Christie Carter and Paul King. • Jossi and Andi from Surf Aid International who were invaluable in locating research participants. • The 29 participants in this study who generously gave their time and spoke frankly and honestly about their social realities. • My supervisors Stephen Wearing and Matthew McDonald. Dr Robert Whelan for world class proof reading. • My wife Sun-Ah Cynn who never bored of discussing the finer points of social constructionism, who indulged my need to consume Nirvana as frequently as possible, who coped with my obsessively long hours of writing and tendency to turn our whole house into my office, and who provided me with love and support throughout.

  • Solar-Powered Pop Star the Hawaiian Singer Jack Johnson Talks About Surfing, Saving the Earth and His New Album, to the Sea by Craig Mclean, June 9, 2010
    Jack Johnson: solar-powered pop star The Hawaiian singer Jack Johnson talks about surfing, saving the earth and his new album, To the Sea By Craig McLean, June 9, 2010 At Jack Johnson’s Kokua Festival in Hawaii, the environmental message hits you before you make it through the gates. ride a bike – help power a school says the sign on the bicycle valet-parking enclosure outside the Waikiki Shell, an outdoor auditorium on the outskirts of Honolulu. A van emblazoned with the logo of styrophobic.com flags up the biodegradable credentials of the food utensils at the annual festival, which was established in 2004 by Johnson and his wife, Kim. And every fan of Johnson is encouraged to buy carbon- offsetting credits with their ticket. The festival, which features Johnson and his band as the headline act, attracts 20,000 concert-goers over two nights. All proceeds go to Johnson’s Kokua Hawaii Foundation, a non-profit organisation that supports environmental education in schools and communities in the islands. 'Eighty-five per cent of the islands’ food is imported – that’s crazy,’ Johnson says. 'That’s one of those statistics that made us start up Aina In Schools – aina means land in Hawaiian, and it’s an acronym for Actively Integrating Nutrition and Agriculture. Teaching pupils about growing their own food and supporting farmers is the kind of local activism that is important.’ For Johnson, 35, who was raised with his two older brothers in a backwoods Hawaiian idyll of boat trips, long hikes, camping expeditions and self-sufficiency (spearing fish, making boat masts from the native hao tree), 'it’s about trying to give children the same experiences I had.
