Once in a while, the network of musical relationships nurtured by jazz musicians bursts into flower under the auspices of a savvy sponsor. Such groupings answer the question one might pose to each musician involved: what's your dream project? SFJAZZ, presenter of the San Francisco Jazz Festival, offers such a fantastic flowering with its all-star octet, the SFJAZZ Collective, which plays Saturday, March 22, at the National Hispanic Cultural Center in Albuquerque. If you're really into the exploration of the world around us," said tenor saxophonist Joe Lovano, "the deeper you get into who you are, it's all about the relationships on the scene, in your moment, the different people you play with and encounter in your personal development and career.
[Christy Mitchell], who makes art lighting (Seen those lamps made from old radios and cameras? They're hers...), decorative tile assemblages and other "repurposed" items, says S.P.A.C.E. will also house studios for "strange doll" maker Beth Robinson, clay sculptor John Brickels and mixed-media sculptor Jake Rifkin. The group will host a "tentative meet-and-greet" this week for Burlington's First Friday Art Walk. On Saturday, August 15, 5-9 p.m., they'll throw a benefit art auction for the new collective.
There's a relatively new collection of essays making its way around Washington circles asking a provocative question that, I'm sure, many have acted out in their own personal lives yet never really pondered what it meant - a book titled "Is the Internet Changing the Way You Think? Gathered and compiled by editor John Brockman, publisher of Edge.org, the myriad scholarly contributors examine just how the Internet has altered the course of an individual's thinking. "A new invention has emerged, a code for collective consciousness that requires a new way of thinking," Mr. Brockman writes. "The Internet is the infinite oscillation of our collective consciousness interacting with itself. It's not about computers. .. It's about thinking"
To be invited into Michael and Ruby Kerr's downtown loft is to walk among a collection of collections. Hanging on the wall just to the right of the front door are the doorstops: dozens of wooden cut-outs of dogs and cats. Each was presumably painted years ago by a teenager in shop class, then discovered by the Kerrs at antique stores and flea markets.
Gathered and compiled by editor John Brockman, publisher of Edge.org, the myriad scholarly contributors examine just how the Internet has altered the course of an individual's thinking. "A new invention has emerged, a code for collective consciousness that requires a new way of thinking,'' Mr. Brockman writes. "The Internet is the infinite oscillation of our collective consciousness interacting with itself. It's not about computers It's about thinking. That's right, the Internet as we know it today started as a small Department of Defense project as early as 1969. Back then, the Pentagon was looking for an alternate way of communicating beyond the telephone system during wartime threats. The best plan was to communicate across a "web" of networked computers - a program that was to be r...
Twitter never ceases to both amuse and amaze me. Every time I log on, whether it's on my phone or my computer, I feel like I'm taking a dip in the collective consciousness of the Internet. Sometimes, it's something vitally important and exciting, like what's happening in Libya and Egypt. Sometimes, it's all about Charlie Sheen, and his tiger blood and fists of fire. And sometimes, it's about which potholes on which major thoroughfares in Greater Bangor are making people angry. By the way, there was a real humdinger on Main Street until very recently. Almost ate my tire.
With still a week remaining in summer -- at least if you go by the academic calendar -- and nearly three weeks remaining before the start of the college football season, it's easy for college basketball to get pushed out of the collective consciousness. But it'll be November before we know it, and Big 12 teams have scheduled plenty of prime matchups to make us pay attention soon after the season tips off. In this week's countdown, I'm taking a look at the top 12 nonconference games involving Big 12 teams.
Carrie Bradshaw sprang into our collective consciousness in the late 1990s, as a sly but sincere writer whose newspaper column - like the book, television series and movies that chronicled her fictional exploits - was called "Sex and the City. Carrie's creator, Candace Bushnell , is filling in the back story, with "The Carrie Diaries" published in 2010, and "Summer and the City" (Balzer + Bray, $18.99) out this month. Bushnell will appear at the Wolfchase Barnes & Noble store at 7 p.m. Friday , to sign her new book and take some questions.
Staff Writer In a basement room at Stahr Armory, a stack of bikes in a sad state of disrepair cries out for intervention, like an Island of Misfit Toys.
