  • Election Night Soundtrack: Serving up Fresh Hot Biscuits,Jelly Side Down&
    Creating Unity in Community: How PVD performers create connection in virtual space and what they’ll take with them into physical space When I sat down (virtually), with three Rhode Island musicians, I had no idea their takeaways from navigating pandemic life would overlap as much as they did. For all three, Dylan Block-Harley, Chachi Carvalho and Roz Raskin, what’s most important is creating art and community in Rhode Island and beyond. This three-article series explores how having to pivot to engage with virtual programming has impacted and inspired them. The first interview in this series is with Dylan Block-Harley (MisSter Dylan), a dedicated creator and long-time Providence musician who comes from a family of performers and storytellers. When I asked him about performing in virtual spaces, he talked about a show he did with his dad Bill Harley (hands down his number one influence) and his brother Noah Block-Harley (of the Horse-eyed Men), which was livestreamed from the Columbus Theatre. Mayté Antelo-Ovando: What has the experience of performing virtually been like? Dylan Block-Harley: From talking to [my dad] it seems like the big challenge is changing your mindset from performing to an audience that’s a living creature — in the room with you, [to being] online, [where] that is removed. I think it can feel like a vacuum. The job is to switch the mentality to more of a TV sort of mindset. That’s what my dad said, “The person you’re performing to is right there.” So it’s this direct like, “Hi! How are you? You know, how are YOU doing?” Which, if you think about it, is actually a really powerful, totally different opportunity and way to connect with people.

  • Il Cinema Dei Fratelli Coen: Declinazioni Del Vuoto 1
    Il cinema dei fratelli Coen: declinazioni del vuoto Introduzione Joel e Ethan Coen esordiscono come registi negli anni Ottanta, epoca in cui è lo stesso concetto di autore – e quindi anche quello di regista – a tornare di moda, ma al tempo stesso si trasforma: l’artista non è più creatore, ma imitatore, in un momento storico in cui si riconosce di non aver più nulla da dire. Come infatti sottolinea Buccheri, “non cerca una voce personale, ma uno stile che gli dia visibilità, un’estetica come marchio e come look – si mette in scena, offrendo il proprio corpo allo “scandalo evangelico”, in una deriva dell’autobiografismo politico degli anni Sessanta”1. E in questo giudizio di valore sono coinvolti anche i fratelli Coen che, come Brian De Palma, o Woody Allen, sono spesso stati definiti manieristi; termine inteso in questo contesto come imitatori prima che della natura, di altro cinema a sé precedente. Tuttavia, nonostante critici come Paolo Cerchi Usai abbia riportato, su “Segnocinema”, come “il loro cinema sia senza motivo, ma abbiano deciso di fare ugualmente cinema nel nome della sua inutilità”2, l’attitudine dei due registi è in realtà profondamente critica riguardo al materiale usato: dietro all’apparenza leggera infatti, si nasconde una critica radicale agli stereotipi e simboli della vita americana e in generale alla vita contemporanea, come il consumismo, la ristrettezza mentale della provincia, la ruralità, la libertà dell’arte, la controcultura stessa. I personaggi che portano in scena hanno corpi sgraziati, spesso grotteschi (si pensi a quelli interpretati da Steve Buscemi, uno degli attori feticcio del cinema dei due fratelli), e sono destinati ad un’irrimediabile alienazione, che arriva a distruggerli, persi nelle rete delle rappresentazioni e leggi sociali.

As of the 2010 census, the population was 916,924,[2] making it Illinois' second-most populous county. Its county seat is Wheaton.[3] County County of DuPage With a population nearing one million, DuPage County has become mostly developed and suburbanized, although some pockets of farmland remain in the county's western and northern parts. The county has a vast socioeconomic profile; residents of Hinsdale, Naperville, and Oak Brook include some of the wealthiest people in the Midwest. In 2010, Midwest Living voted Hinsdale the Midwest's second-wealthiest town, the first being Fairway, Kansas.
