  • Full Comments Submitted by All the Respondents 1. GEORGE
    Full comments submitted by all the respondents 1. GEORGE ATANGA (WARD 12 RIDEAU-VANIER) I fully agree and thank you for this opportunity. 2. MARC AUBIN (WARD 12 Rideau-Vanier) If elected, I will advocate for making achieving architectural design excellence a top priority for City of Ottawa projects. AUBIN: I wholeheartedly agree with this statement. Particularly here in ward 12, the historic heart of the Nation's capital, where we have had bestowed upon us a number of landmark buildings from our forebears, we must find ways to press the private sector into a much higher standard of architectural excellence for new projects. This is all the more urgent now as we seem to be in the midst of a barrage of proposed new high rise projects in this ward. I would support the use of design competitions for significant municipal projects. AUBIN: Yes, I believe this is a requirement for significant municipal projects. It is through design competitions that we stimulate the creativity required to come up with the kind of results we need. Attaining carbon-neutral status for all Ottawa buildings by 2030 is a key priority for me. AUBIN: I am strongly supportive of such an initiative. The facts are clear that close to half of our greenhouse gas emissions in our City's climate are generated from our buildings and our buildings are with us for a long period of time. It is here that we have the biggest opportunity to address this environmental challenge. If elected, I will be an advocate for Ottawa's built cultural heritage.

  • In Search of Lost Chords: Joni Mitchell, the Last Waltz, and the Refuge of the Road
    103 5 In Search of Lost Chords: Joni Mitchell, Th e Last Waltz , and the Refuge of the Road Gustavus Stadler Murray Lerner’s fi lm Message to Love: Th e Isle of Wight Festival 1970 documents Joni Mitchell’s confrontation with an unruly crowd at an increasingly chaotic three-day concert, where an audience of 200,000 watched performances by acts like Jimi Hendrix, Th e Who, and Th e Doors. Her few minutes on screen will never fi t as neatly with glib proclamations of the “end of the 60s” as the events at the free concert at Tracy, California’s Altamont Speedway, organized by the Rolling Stones and documented in the far more canonical fi lm Gimme Shelter . But Message to Love’s depiction of Mitchell’s confrontation with the festival audience carries some of the same force. In both fi lms, dreams seeded at the Woodstock Music & Art Fair of 1969 turn into nightmares. Like Gimme Shelter , Lerner’s fi lm charts the breakdown of business-as-usual at a huge, outdoor, multi-artist concert. But in Message to Love , Woodstock’s shadow looms more literally; just aft er Mitchell fi nishes playing her eponymous anthem of tribute to the already legendary aff air, her microphone is commandeered by an apparently acid-baked hippie named Yogi Joe, who rather incoherently attempts to speak up for a group of people protesting outside the festival, demanding that it be made free. 1 Mitchell’s manager fi nally pulls Joe off stage, prompting a chorus of boos and jeers from the audience.

  • Chinese Whispers: Jimi Hendrix, Fame and “The Star Spangled Banner” 1
    49 th Parallel No.17, Spring 2006 Chinese Whispers: Jimi Hendrix, Fame and “The Star Spangled Banner” 1 Marios Elles * Macquarie University, Sydney, Australia ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Drawing on Halbwach’s notion of collective memory the paper reassess some of the key turning points in Hendrix’s legacy. Highlighting the contingent nature of Hendrix’s rise to fame through to its peak in 1968, the paper illustrates how, despite the fact that Hendrix continued to grow as a musician, from 1969 onwards his business and personal affairs were increasingly in disarray. In fact he was telling Rolling Stone in May of that year, that he needed to take a year off ("Hendrix's One Year Retirement Plan"). Secondly, I show that Hendrix’s Woodstock performance did not represent the high point of the festival either artistically or in terms of crowd numbers, and that rather than being regarded as iconic at the time, Hendrix’s rendering of the anthem was regarded as controversial by his opponents and as a theatrical display of music virtuosity by his supporters. I also demonstrate how Hendrix’s flirtation with the American anthem represented part of a wider cultural phenomenon at the time. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ * Marios Elles is a PhD student at Macquarie University, Sydney, Australia. He is currently researching and writing his thesis on Jimi Hendrix. He has presented papers on Hendrix at the 6 th Conference of the ESA Research Network for the Sociology of the Arts , The Art of Comparison, Rotterdam, The Netherlands in 2004 and at The Australian Sociological Association (TASA) Tasmania University, Hobart in 2005.
