Having already resigned myself to, at some time , losing my job, its fascinating having a front row seat to this. And yeah, it’s pretty crude depending on your view. -

An example of what I’m sure will be one of a myriad of techniques of social crediting, I work for a giant corporation, weekly testing is mandatory but vaccines are not, at least not yet. However, if you get it there’s an online form you’re supposed to fill out indicating you took the jab with details about it. Those people will have an icon next…[Read more]

God help us. You must leave the corporate den of Satan. The exodus is now.

Social engineering at it’s finest. Egads how crude.

Almost 30 years ago, before I got hired by a corporation in the Pacific Northwest, my “boss” was an elderly lady who took the advice of a man who was known to beat women, and though he was married, he had many ladies who would lay with him, even though he abused them. He told her, “He is not one of us” (I found this statement revealing),…

At the risk of stating the obvious, social media and the sharing economy have been conditioning people for this kind of social pressure for years now. Blue checks… star ratings on Uber… the examples are endless. I always wondered why that had become such a craze. Now I see.
I feel a bit like what Tom said: I’ve reconciled myself to the…

My grade primary teacher was stingy about giving us stick on gold stars but she was a childless old batch anyway. So, we didn’t care and just waited for the buzzer to sound…day after day. Perhaps even as 5 year olds we were more patient back then.

He was a complex guy, a true outlier that resulted in some important observations. Also,whether you appreciate his music or not, he was a gifted musician. -

Yeah, can’t wait to see what kind of coercion my company comes up with, that’s if it’s not just a requirement for employment. -

For anyone wishing to pursue the concept of Affektenlehre further I would suggest the Netherlands Bach Society’s web site. If you click on the ” All of Bach ” link it will bring you to a page with a few dozen videos of live performances. With that are descriptions of certain passages explaining the intent of the music, hinting at Affektenlehre. I…[Read more]

Random question but does anyone know the symbolism of the twisted columns in the back round ? I’ve always wondered about them. -

I enjoy the vids you post with the scores included, gives the music another dimension, a shape I suppose. -

The opening Herz und Mund und Tat und Leben is nothing short of exhilarating.

All of the cantatas are little miniature oratorios, little miniature masterpieces. Decades ago, Nicholas Harnoncourt recorded all of them on vinyl, and while that series isn’t my favorite, the one nice thing about it was that they included the complete scores in miniature of each cantata, which would now cost a fortune.

To me the scores allow you to watch these genius minds as they create. I always listen to music both without, and then with, and the without the scores… constantly back and forth

This is just a thought I occasionally chew on, how the masses have been entrained to perceive and think about everything as a dialectic, binary thinking. Concurrent with that, scientists are feverishly at work
creating AI, teaching computers to function beyond the binary. That’s quite the inversion and , if successful, it’s easy to see how…[Read more] -
