From Mr. Stewart, The Daily Poligraf
The Sahara of Snow Plusieurs développements, dont une surprise majeure, dans le dossier Weed la semaine dernière. Malheureusement, je n'ai plus le temps de vous en parler aujourd'hui (je blogue dans le désordre) car je dois me préparer à partir en direction d'Expo-Cité pour le match de ce soir. Rendez-vous demain !


Pas de rencontre poligrafique la semaine dernière : nos horaires ne nous le permettaient tout simplement pas. Encore une fois, si tout se déroule comme prévu, la reprises des activités est prévue pour mercredi soir.


À classer dans la catégorie "Tiens, tiens" : à la fin janvier, j'ai recommencé à penser au projet d'hommage à ELP sur lequel j'avais travaillé, jadis, naguère, autrefois. Quelques jours plus tard j'ai reçu un appel de Stéphane, qui tient le rôle du E, et qui est toujours à la recherche d'un bassiste-chanteur pour jouer le rôle du L. Bref, on s'est rencontré jeudi et j'ai recommencé à travailler quelques pièces question de mesurer mes progrès. Les résultats sont plutôt encourageants alors je vais tâcher d'y consacrer un peu de temps dans les prochaines semaines question de voir où ça mène.


2 nulles en 2 matches la semaine passée : lundi, les Nordiks semblaient se diriger allègrement vers une victoire, mais leur avance de 7 à 3 a fondu dans de l'huile chande de Chicken Wings et la rencontre s'est terminée 7 à 7. À peu près le même scénario jeudi soir alors que les Skywalkers n'ont pas réussi à tenir le coup devant la Grimace qui est revenue de l'arrière pour égaliser la marque à 5. Sauf que dans le cas des bleus, il n'y a pas de doute que c'est la fatigue, conséquence d'un alignement privé de plusieurs réguliers, qui a jouée dans la balance. Mes succès offensifs se sont poursuivis et j'ai ajouté un 3ème tour du chapeau à ma fiche pour porter mon total à 21 buts. Comme à l'habitude, les résumés des récents affrontements sont disponibles sur le blogue du DBFC. La joie footballesque se poursuit dès ce soir et c'est au tour du L.A. de se mesurer aux Nordiks.


Fripp and the world of music :

Scott's posting is a good example of how, when one applies the rules of one world to another, in the expectation that the other world is bound by the same rules, we often miss what is valuable and available; even when this what asks of us only that we open our hands and accept what is freely on offer. The governing world that Scott assumes is the world of commerce. In that world, music is a commodity; and in the world of commodities, Scott suggests, the temptation is to create more & more commodities. Almost. In a world of things, sufficient is enough. In a fallen world of things, more is better, or I'm stuffed: I'll have some more to quote the Gaucho aphorism.

In the world of music, (it appears to us that) the musician creates the music. It is more accurate to say that music creates the musician. For a musician, it is not a "temptation" to be present & involved when music becomes available to enter the phenomenal world: it is a matter of being & doing who & what we are. A musician who undertakes the professional life enters a life of grief and pain: what has value is accorded a price. But when a musician believes that music is a commodity, music has just died in them.

All 'the World is a Vampire'
NYC Fall Fashion Week: Oakley Show.

"The world is a vampire" this famous opening line to the Smashing Pumpkin's song, Bullet with Butterfly Wings, signified the beginning of the Oakley Show, along with an extreme snowboarding video clip projected onto the walls of the Atelier. Proceeding down the runway were models who looked "vampiristic"with their hair pulled back tightly and wrapped in black (resembling a spike) - an effect that culminated with the sleek sunglasses worn by each model.

The hard edge - signifying a serious, fierce sports philosophy - permeated the show.

Overall, the collection was sporty, but not athletic: the designs were not practical or even conducive to the sports they were associated with, but rather represented the street style of each athletic category. Much of it seemed like what you would imagine Vail hipsters to traipse around in after a day on the slopes (but, except for the ski goggles, not what they would wear on them).

The collection was almost exclusively black, white and grey, which added even more edge to this blend of sports and punk.
