JONAH THE DOG IN THE BOAT by BRIDIE STRINGERBroadcast: Tuesday 7th May 2024, 3:30pm About the Writer: Following careers in telecommunications and NHS management, I undertook academic postgraduate studies in pastoral theology and was awarded a doctorate in 2010. I then became a university lecturer in reflective practice courses for those working in chaplaincies, and also for candidates in formation programmes for the ordained ministry of permanent deacon. I have actively participated in parish, deanery and diocesan pastoral councils over many years and been a catechist for children, young people and adults. I find creative writing helpful in pastoral ministry as it frees people to engage imaginatively with faith rather than burdening them with doctrine and orthodoxy which they might find difficult to engage with. Finally, I am a wife, mother of two loving daughters and grandmother of two amazing grandsons. In short, I am a good example of St John Henry Newman's saying: ‘To live is to change and to be perfect is to have changed often.' Perfection still eludes me!

"Manifesto hacker" di McKenzie Wark, un testo che ha continuato a influenzare il modo in cui vediamo il mondo digitale e l'attivismo. Vent'anni dopo la sua pubblicazione, i concetti trattati sono ancora sorprendentemente rilevanti.TRASCRIZIONE [Eng translation below]Se cercate nel dizionario inglese-italiano la parola hacker, probabilmente troverete hacker, cioè non lo traducono per niente, oppure troverete qualcosa tipo pirata informatico. Però vabbè, a parte la figura romantica del pirata, gli hacker fanno anche attivismo che si chiama aktivismo, ed è proprio di questo che voglio parlare nei 3 minuti grezzi di oggi perché ricorre il ventesimo anniversario dalla pubblicazione del 'Manifesto hacker' un volume che all'epoca veniva conosciuto da pochi, già internet ce n'era poca in giro e c'erano pochi siti però le persone che studiavano o che comunque bazzicavano il mondo internet conoscevano il manifesto hacker scritto da McKenzie Wark.Cos'è questo questo libriccino? Nel suo contenuto abbastanza semplice, le idee fondamentali sono abbastanza alla portata di tutti, cioè dice che oggi nel mondo, parliamo di vent'anni fa ma ancora non fa ancora una piega tutto questi concetti, ci sono due aspetti importanti: quello delle idee astratte e virtuali e quello delle cose invece pratiche. Il fatto è che le cose virtuali, come l'informazione, ma anche la poesia, la matematica, influenzano cose molto concrete che sono i paesi, gli eserciti, le aziende, le comunità. Quindi, come il virtuale ha un impatto molto reale sul mondo che ci circonda.E l'obiettivo del libro è quello di spiegarci chi sono le persone che stanno creando questo nuovo mondo e come vengono trasformati i dati in idee che poi ci portano a stare da un lato o dall'altro.Il manifesto degli hacker parla anche di un altro problema, di come alcune aziende, soprattutto quelle farmaceutiche, vogliono proteggere le loro idee e non vogliono invece la condivisione. Si pensi un po' ai brevetti per i vari vaccini, per le medicine che vengono prodotte e vengono vendute a prezzi altissimi. Quindi si parla anche di proprietà intellettuale. Ci sono due due fazioni opposte: le persone che vogliono usare le informazioni o vogliono che le informazioni siano libere, e quelli invece che vogliono tenere tutto per sé e che non vogliono condividere.Diciamo che è un libro che ha vent'anni, ma non li dimostra affatto, perché se andiamo a leggere vediamo che gli stessi problemi ce li troviamo ancora davanti. Vi metto un link perché è molto interessante e sicuramente in questi giorni se ne parlerà appunto perché sono vent'anni che McKenzie Wark l'ha pubblicato.TRANSLATIONIf you look up the word hacker in the English-Italian dictionary, you will probably find hacker, meaning they do not translate it at all, or you will find something like digital pirate. But whatever, apart from the romantic figure of the pirate, hackers also do activism which is called aktivism, and that's exactly what I want to talk about in today's podcast because it's the 20th anniversary of the publication of the 'Hacker Manifesto' a volume that was known to few people at the time, already the internet was little around and there were few sites however people who were studying or otherwise hanging out in the internet world knew about the hacker manifesto written by McKenzie Wark.What is this little booklet? In its quite simple content, the basic ideas are quite within everyone's reach, that is to say it says that in the world today, we are talking about twenty years ago but still, it still does not make a dent in all these concepts, there are two important aspects : that of abstract and virtual ideas and that of things instead practical. The fact is that virtual things, such as information, but also poetry, mathematics, affect very concrete things that are countries, armies, companies, communities. Thus, how the virtual has a very real impact on the world around us.And the goal of the book is to explain to us who the people are who are creating this new world and how data are being turned into ideas that then lead us to be on one side or the other.The hackers' manifesto also talks about another problem, how some companies, especially pharmaceutical companies, want to protect their ideas and do not want sharing instead. Think a little bit about the patents for various vaccines, for medicines that are produced and are sold at very high prices. So we also talk about intellectual property. There are two opposing factions: people who want to use the information or want the information to be free , and those who want to keep everything to themselves and do not want to share.Let's say it's a book that is 20 years old, but it doesn't show it at all, because if we go to read it we see that the same problems are still in front of us. I am putting a link because it is very interesting and certainly these days it will be talked about precisely because it is 20 years since McKenzie Wark published it.LINK:A hacker manifest https://theanarchistlibrary.org/library/mckenzie-wark-a-hacker-s-manifestoUn manifesto hacker http://www.tecalibri.info/M/MCKENZIE-W_hacker.htm

Synopsis Back in Bach's day, there were churchmen aghast at the thought that composers were trying to sneak flashy opera music into Sunday services. Church music was meant to be simple, austere, and, well , not “operatic.” So what would they have made of the three “church parables” – mini-operas, really, composed in the 20th century by the great English composer Benjamin Britten? The third of these, The Prodigal Son, debuted on today's date in 1968 at St. Bartholomew's Church in Orford, England. All three impart Christian values and were meant for church performance – scored for a handful of soloists, modest choir, and a small ensemble that would fit in front of and on either side of a church altar where church music was normally performed. But operas they are, and Britten himself let the “o” word slip when he commented in a 1967 interview that he was (quote), “doing another church opera to go with the other two, Curlew River and The Burning Fiery Furnace, to make a kind of trilogy.'” Britten took these mini-operas seriously, and dedicated The Prodigal Son to his new friend, the Soviet composer Dmitri Shostakovich, who in turn would dedicate his 14th Symphony to Britten.

We had the pleasure of interviewing Matteo Bocelli over Zoom video! Capitol Records released acclaimed singer/songwriter Matteo Bocelli's debut solo single, aptly entitled “Solo.” Over lush orchestral arrangements, delicate piano played by Matteo himself, and the vivid neons of modern pop production from GRAMMY® winner Jesse Shaktin, he sings passionately and clearly about lost romance, forging a new path and the void felt when a loved one is just out of reach. “Missing you with every breath I take,” he sings. “Wishing you were with me when I wake.” Matteo wrote the song with Fiona Bevan and Marco Guazzone. Download / stream “Solo” HERE. The accompanying video, which was also released today, is rich with symbolism and the natural beauty of the majestic Dolomites mountains, located in northeast Italy. It was directed by Gaetano Morbioli, who also helmed the official video for “Fall On Me,” a duet that paired Matteo with his father, opera legend Andrea Bocelli. View the official video for “Solo” HERE. Matteo Bocelli, who is graduating at the Conservatory of Lucca in Tuscany, says, “Over the past three years, Capitol Records has given me a rare opportunity – to have time, to study, to write new music, to rehearse – and I'm really proud to be able to release this first song.”Much of the world first heard Matteo on “Fall on Me,” the English/Italian song that he co-wrote for the elder Bocelli's acclaimed 2018 album, Sì, which topped the Billboard 200 and the UK Official Albums chart. The song, which has amassed nearly 300 million combined global streams, went on to soundtrack Disney's The Nutcracker and the Four Realms. The pair performed “Fall on Me” at Madison Square Garden and the Hollywood Bowl as well as on numerous television programs, including “Dancing with the Stars,” Colbert, “Good Morning America,” “Royal Family Variety Performance” and “Strictly Come Dancing.” It was a powerful introduction, yet Matteo's musical journey began when he was a child. By age six, he was learning piano, and at 18 he debuted on stage to sing Verdi at the Rome Colosseum. He's worked his whole life to master his craft. But the melodies that emerge whenever the young man opens his mouth feel real in a way that can't be explained by a classical education. He sings with a purity of expression that seems innate, with charisma and clarity of purpose. We want to hear from you!
