hi acorn, cover versions of songs can be unsettling to some people. I think different versions are interesting. when teaching ‘fair use’ to analysts I would play a clip from the 2 live crew version of ‘Pretty Woman’ a subject of a legal case in which the Supreme Court found that a parody rap version could qualify as fair use.

I do not know why an artist would choose to express art in a particular personal way. but I greatly appreciate the expression. Some new versions I like and some I don’t. Repetition bores me. The video had a stark beauty and I interpreted it as a reminder to see the beauty in life even if the dark cold winter is freezing the joy right…[Read more]-

Laura, I regret making you the accidental target of my attack on the whole modern attitude to music. Please don’t give up posting links to music.
Here’s one of J S Bach’s harpsichord works played beautifully on a modern piano.

Hi Peter, nice to think of me. I enjoyed the way the your Bach piece slowed down in the middle. I liked the Vikingur post because because it was both complex and soothing. It invites discussion and listening when context is provided with a posting. I appreciated the Víkingur Ólafsson version of Bach: Organ Sonata No. 4 because it was c…

hello everyone. here is a gentle and peaceful rendition from Iceland.
Víkingur Ólafsson – Bach: Organ Sonata No. 4, BWV 528: II. Andante [Adagio] (Transcr. Stradal)
-
1. It’s organ music. Why play it on an instrument for which it’s neither intended nor particularly well suited?
2. It’s abstract music. Why turn it into a movie soundtrack?
3. Why does Mr Ólafsson interpret “andante” as “adagio molto tedioso”?As an antidote, here’s Marie-Claire Alain:

Here is a light one from Mendelssohn: Symphony 3 with an emphasis on the wind instruments. I found it a rather happy listen.

I was wanting some music while I finished up my morning chores and viola found your post Laura. Thank you.

Loved! both of the other two you posted. What a great band.
Thanks Laura!

i may regret posting this… but this champagne bubble of a tune motivated me to go up to the third floor where I can look out over the snow-laced tree tops and scattering flurries and then look down on a ready to be sorted or trashed, tchotchke memorabilia treasure cache. -

hope I didn’t violate your safe space by bringing up the issue of ascribing a gender to an AI service. I thinking giving a machine a gender is fascinating but I understand how others may not agree. I always have liked learning what french nouns were masculine or feminine.-
Nah, no worries, I don’t have a safe space (nor, in general, do I tend to warm to those who advocate them). What made me bristle was the thought that identity politics might be invading even technology and discussions of AI.

we have misogyny IRL and female AI.

I don’t get the current obsession with sex and gender in all things. I thought we were past seeing humans through the lens of sex, gender, sexual orientation, race, etc., and now it’s not just humans, but objects. And then when there are actual problems in real life, well, ideology comes first and reality takes a backseat. It’s nuts. I…

with respect to the risks, for me, calling in other beings is at this point beyond my intentions or knowledge. I like to think about generating light energy via chakra meditation and purging any thought energy not focused on enhancing a healthy life for everyone. I am interested in thoughts on these issues and efforts. -

an article from William Henry
LOVE AND THE ANGELIC UPRISING : THE GREAT RESET AND THE ULTIMATE REVOLUTIONARY ACT
-
It was interesting (and encouraging) to read about that lady whose group tried to generate an egregore to protect Britain during WWII. Her group “was not able to meet in person because of wartime travel restrictions,” yet their group intention presumably still worked.
-
Described in “The Magical Battle of Britain”, who lived for a time in Glastonbury.
-
maybe a group project for us? anyone interested?
-
I don’t know anything about group-based intention. I do remember hearing somewhere that it can be counterproductive if done the wrong way. If Gizars with knowledge/experience with it want to provide guidance and participate in such a project, I will.
-
I could lead it. its just a matter of focused intent, agreed upon.
-
Kudos for taking the initiative. I don’t know how/what other Gizars or Dr. Farrell might feel about such a project or about members discussing it in this forum. I’ll wait for additional feedback.

i whoa!- no Golem stuff lol didn’t realize that’s what it was talking about. Angelic stuff would be lovely and aspirational on the other hand. I have no desire to create self fulfilling monsters, but interestingly, isn’t that what fiction authors do, on a small scale?
-
Nor would I suggest or be involved in anything potentially negative or dangerous. As I say, I’m a complete novice at anything to do with group intention, which is why I wouldn’t get involved without informed, trusted guidance…

Do you listen to the Higherside Chats? Check out the episode with Lynne McTaggart. It’s mainly in reference to intention and health, but there’s seemingly no reason why it couldn’t be used for grander objectives.

Good advice… Yes, I listen to the Higherside Chats, and I’ve listened to Lynne McTaggart’s first-hour interview a couple of times. Her material is brand-new to me, but very interesting.

In these matters, you have to know how to walk before you can run, for example by fostering a harmonious local environment. This in itself has a positive resonant effect.

Thanks much, Dana. I suspected something like that might be the case. I’m still at the crawling stage.

That was an interesting article. I couldn’t help but think of the tens of millions of people who are focusing on President Trump somehow overcoming this diabolic coup to overturn the election results. These people are very passionate in their support for this President. I’ve never seen anything like it in my 64 years of life. Maybe it…

would not a state of equilibrium singularity create a channel where creation would flow. The frequency channeled operates as a sympathetic resonance made manifest? A tone Ment?

Sounds like they’re really clutching at straws for “explanations”. Though the reference to ancient genetics is curious.
-
Some have claimed that the low numbers in Africa are due to the fact that malaria is endemic, meaning that many people take chloroquine or HCQ. They might be grasping at straws to deflect attention from that hypothesis. However, I do find the reference to ancient genetics interesting indeed.

No 5G/6G. No fluoride in water. Glyphosate? GMO’s? High altitude micro particle spraying? High vitamin D production due to equator/sun whereas dark skin in northern climates have low vitamin D production due to poor sun exposure. (Why Blacks have had a higher “death rate” in the US.)

In order not to become a false positive AI target, one must adopt several ‘normie’ interests and avoid trigger words. I follow and comment on sports and sweet aphorisms, which I like but appear safely mundane. this way edgy comments are diluted for AI purposes. Have a great day!-
“The study found that Twitter users who shared stories from reliable news sources often tweeted about their personal life, such as their emotions and interactions with friends. This group of users often posted tweets with words such as ‘mood’, ‘wanna’, ‘gonna’, ‘I’ll’, ‘excited’, and ‘birthday’.” I think I’m gonna be in a good mood tomorro…
