Mostly, I Write

Ogni tanto una buona notizia. A maggio ci sarà una puntata speciale di “Friends” https://www.ilpost.it/2020/02/22/friends-reunion/

Intervista allo scomparso Larry Harvey, fondatore del festival The Burning Man. Money quote: "I was raised to be radically self-reliant I was raised on a farm; my parents were farmers, though my father was a carpenter by trade. He regarded any unnecessary conversation as mouth-flap. I would have put my arm in a fire to get praise from my parents but I never felt I pleased him. But what I learnt to do was stand on my own two feet." https://www.independent.co.uk/news/people/profiles/larry-harvey-the-founder-of-the-burning-man-festival-on-adoption-uncontrollable-rage-and-how-freud-9083511.html

Da una vita sono affascinato dal concetto di esposizione universale e dal suo derivato, il parco tematico così come l'aveva immaginato Walt Disney. L'intersezione tra questi due mondi è la pianificazione - organica e molto più strutturata da parte del gruppo di lavoro di Disney. Un nuovo libro la racconta nel dettaglio. Money quote: "In the new book "Walt Disney’s Disneyland", architecture historian Chris Nichols retraces the long road from idea to the media empire’s first park. To hear one animator tell it, Disney first hatched his idea for a play land while plugging away on Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs in 1937. At the film’s premiere, Disney himself made it a kind of reality superimposed atop Los Angeles. Guests strolled along the median of Crescent Heights Boulevard, which had been reimagined as “Dwarfland” and crowned with a charmingly ramshackle cottage and a cast of costumed characters." https://www.atlasobscura.com/articles/urban-planning-disneyland

L'ultimo messaggio di Amelia Earhart e la piccola Betty Klenck Money quote: "Close your eyes and imagine yourself in St. Petersburg, Florida in the summer of 1937. Now, step into the sitting room at the Klenck house, where you'll find 15-year-old Betty Klenck seated on the floor in front of her family's radio. Her father has set up a long-wire antenna measuring about 60 feet (18.3 meters) long that runs across the backyard to a pole outside the house. It's strong enough to capture transmissions from much farther than a radio normally could. It's a good thing Betty was so interested in cruising the airwaves — not to mention that she still describes herself as "crazy about airplanes." Otherwise, she might not have reacted so strongly as she sat there that July afternoon, doodling pictures of fashionable women and writing down the lyrics to pop songs, when she heard a voice come over the radio saying "This is Amelia Earhart. This is Amelia Earhart."" https://curiosity.com/topics/a-15-year-old-girl-heard-amelia-earharts-last-transmission-curiosity/

Dalla parte delle "brave ragazze". Che però raccontano storie sostanzialmente diverse da quelle dei "bravi ragazzi". Money quote: "Notice anything about all the stories above? They have one important thing in common. These women talk about feeling angry, entitled and delusional, just like “nice guys.” The difference is, they say they didn’t take it out on anyone—they just turned the toxic feelings on themselves. Of course, these women are telling their own versions of the stories. They may be unreliable narrators. We haven’t heard from the men who got Nice Girled." https://melmagazine.com/the-female-version-of-a-nice-guy-isn-t-what-you-think-6a0192346506

Conservare le cose. E conservare il suono delle cose. Interessante. Money quote: "»Conserve the sound« is an online museum for vanishing and endangered sounds. The sound of a dial telephone, a walkman, a analog typewriter, a pay phone, a 56k modem, a nuclear power plant or even a cell phone keypad are partially already gone or are about to disappear from our daily life. Accompanying the archive people are interviewed and give an insight in to the world of disappearing sounds. »Conserve the sound« is a project form CHUNDERKSEN and is funded by the Film & Medienstiftung NRW, Germany." https://www.conservethesound.de/en/
