But no. This was precisely the time to make a fuss, with every means available: so that people who are always thinking about other things, who don’t read much and don’t read well, and even then are only interested in their own patch, could be told how the State is capable of organizing a massacre and at the same time organize the mourning, the public outrage, the medals for the widows and orphans, and official funerals…

Pedagogy, like language itself, can either liberate or imprison ideas, inspire or suffocate constructive thinking.

And may have inadvertently created a warp drive in the process.
NASA scientists have reported that they’ve successfully tested an engine called the electromagnetic propulsion drive, or the EM Drive, in a vacuum that replicates space. The EM Drive experimental system could take humans to Mars in just 70 days without the need for rocket fuel, and it’s no exaggeration to say that this could change everything.
But before we get too excited (who are we kidding, we’re already freaking out), it’s important to note that these results haven’t been replicated or verified by peer review, so there’s a chance there’s been some kind of error. But so far, despite a thorough attempt to poke holes in the results, the engine seems to hold up.

Mulatu Astatke - New York–Addis–London: The Story of Ethio Jazz 1965–1975 (2009)
“Ethio jazz. That’s what Mulatu Astatke called his style of music when he invented it back in the 1960s, and it means exactly what it implies: Ethiopian melodies played on Western instruments with room for improvisation. Astatke was a pioneer for his country’s modern music. His concept of instrumental music as an end in itself was a bit foreign in his homeland, where singers rule the popular music sphere, and he was among the very first musicians from Ethiopia to learn about music while abroad. He started playing as a teenager at school in Wales, and after a stint at London’s Trinity School of Music, he jumped the Atlantic for a brief stay at Boston’s Berklee College of Music, ultimately winding up in New York City in the mid-60s. There, he was exposed to sounds he simply couldn’t have heard back home in Addis Ababa, and his exposure to jazz and Western harmonic concepts led him to formulate Ethio jazz, the perfect hybrid of the traditional and the modern. …”

A Snowy Winter Landscape with Woodcutters and Figures Before a Bonfire in a Gothic Ruin by Jules Cesar Denis van Loo
Lala Abaddon combines traditional practices of weaving, photography, and painting into her brilliantly colored woven prints. When first featured her work, Abaddon took us behind the scenes into her New York studio, where she works quietly alongside her parakeet Poquito, and showed us how she uses a stationary rail cutter to make the compositions of her largescale weaves out of her own photographs, images inspired by complex backstories.

The Birds of New Guinea and the Adjacent Papuan IslandsÂ
by JOHN GOULD
The Birds of New Guinea and the Adjacent Papuan Islands, Gould’s last great work. With only about 250 sets made it is amongst the rarest of all Gould’s works and was completed after his death by Richard Bowdler Sharpe, Gould’s protégé and devoted friend. Sharpe then in charge of the of the bird collection at the British Museum, assumed the authorship halfway through the series in 1881, after the twelfth part had been issued. Sharpe was more than forty years junior to Gould, whom he had meet when he was only fifteen, and they both shared a passionate interest in ornithology. In his last years, although an invalid and often in pain, Gould was always pleased when Sharpe visited him to look at his collection of skins and discuss the latest bird discoveries.
