Zaak 53: Koninklijke RoofkunstOf het nu groot of klein is, anoniem of niet, eenmalig of maandelijks, elke bijdrage helpt ons om dit fascinerende verhaal voort te zetten en meer verborgen verhalen aan het licht te brengen: https://fooienpod.com/kunstmaffiaZeer veel dank mochten jullie iets voor onze podcast over hebben! Show notes – Eind 18e eeuw vlucht stadhouder Willem V het land uit en neemt een uiterst kostbaar 534-delig porseleinen servies mee. In Engeland moet hij dat verkopen om in zijn kosten te voorzien.Een eeuw later belandt een deel van het exclusieve servies in de verzameling van een Duits-Joodse bankier, die gedwongen wordt zijn kunstcollectie te verkopen aan de nazi's. Lange tijd blijft dit servies spoorloos, tot Kunstdetective Arthur Brand het in 2014 op het spoor komt.Picture this: the late 1930s, where a German-Jewish banker finds himself in a real pickle thanks to the Nazis, who are insisting he sell off his prized art collection just to snag a visa outta dodge. Among the treasures was a super exclusive porcelain set that once graced the tables of a Dutch stadtholder. Fast forward to post-war chaos, and guess what? That exquisite porcelain goes missing, poof, just like my last good pair of socks after laundry day. But hold onto your hats, because in 2014, an eagle-eyed researcher spots a plate from that fabled collection in a Dutch museum, sparking a thrilling chase to uncover the lost pieces of history. This episode of Kunstmafia takes us on a wild ride through art theft, deception, and the ongoing quest for restitution as we unravel the story of a rare 18th-century Meissen porcelain service. It's not just about the china; it's about the legacy, the families torn apart by war, and the relentless pursuit of what was stolen. Buckle up as we venture into the murky waters of art history, where each piece tells a tale of loss and recovery, and where every auction catalog holds secrets waiting to be discovered.https://www.femkefataal.nl/roofkunst-paleis-het-loo-moet-terug-naar-joodse-familie/Takeaways: In de jaren '30 dwongen de nazi's een Duits-Joodse bankier zijn waardevolle kunstcollectie te verkopen voor een visum. De zoektocht naar verloren kunstvoorwerpen uit de Tweede Wereldoorlog blijft doorgaan, met meer dan 100.000 items nog steeds spoorloos. Tijdens deze aflevering bekijken we de geschiedenis van een uniek 18de-eeuws Meissen servies dat onlangs werd teruggevonden. Herbert Gutmann, een grootverzamelaar, werd door de nazi's gedwongen zijn kunstcollectie te verkopen en vluchtte naar Engeland. De ontdekking van roofkunst in musea heeft geleid tot een hernieuwde zoektocht naar gerechtigheid voor de erfgenamen. Het Meissen servies, dat ooit toebehoorde aan Willem de Vijfde, onthult de complexe geschiedenis van kunstroof en restitutie.

In this episode of the SCCM Podcast, host Diane C. McLaughlin, DNP, AGACNP-BC, CCRN, FCCM, is joined by Heather Meissen, DNP, FCCM, to discuss the importance to nurses of publication and navigating the academic publishing process. They discuss how nurses at the bedside are uniquely positioned to identify trends and gaps in patient care that can be addressed through research and publication. This podcast aims to raise awareness for nurses and other critical care practitioners wanting to enter the research and publishing fields. This unique professional development topic is designed for healthcare workers at the beginning of their research and publishing journeys. Dr. Meissen stresses that publishing is vital for advancing nursing practice and improving patient care, urging clinicians to “just get started” on their research and writing journeys. She emphasizes the importance of finding a mentor to help refine research questions, structure projects, and navigate challenges. She provides practical advice on identifying a research topic, conducting a literature review, and selecting the appropriate journal for submission. The discussion also highlights imposter syndrome among new writers and how overcoming self-doubt is crucial to getting published. The conversation touches on the peer review process, including how to handle feedback constructively and spot predatory journals that seek publication fees without legitimate editorial oversight. Dr. Meissen also discusses the role of AI in writing and research, cautioning against its misuse while acknowledging its potential benefits. Finally, she encourages nurses to participate in the Society of Critical Care Medicine (SCCM) Reviewer Academy, which aims to train a community of trusted, skilled, and diverse peer reviewers to perform high-quality reviews for the SCCM journals (Alexander P, et al. Crit Care Med. 2023;51:1111-1123). Learn more about the SCCM Reviewer Academy at sccm.org/journals. Diane C. McLaughlin, DNP, AGACNP-BC, CCRN, FCCM, is a neurocritical care nurse practitioner at University of Florida Health Jacksonville. She is active within SCCM, serving on both the APP Resource and Ultrasound committees, and is a social media ambassador for SCCM. Heather Meissen, DNP, FCCM, is a nurse practitioner and associate clinical professor at Emory Healthcare in Atlanta, Georgia.

Die deutschlandweit erfolgreichste weibliche A Capella Band “Medlz” hat einen Ausstieg eines ihrer Gründungsmitglieder zu verzeichnen: Silvana Mehnert singt in Meissen ihr allerletztes Konzert mit den “Medlz”. Im aktuellen Podcast spricht die Musikerin über die Gründe für ihren Ausstieg nach 25 Jahren in der Band: “Tatsächlich ist das ein Prozess, ein Reifeprozess. Ich bin 25 Jahre bei den Medlz gewesen, das hast du schon richtig erwähnt. Und wer die Medlz kennt und ich glaube, das tun viele Hörer, weiß, dass wir A Cappella singen und dass wir immer so Show-Konzepte haben, wo wir uns hauptsächlich ein Thema nehmen und dazu Songs suchen. Also es sind Cover-Shows sozusagen. Das habe ich halt 25 Jahre gemacht und habe aber schon vor, ich würde sagen mittlerweile 15 Jahren, gemerkt, dass mir das nicht reicht und habe immer meine Fühler ausgestreckt nach rechts und links und viel angefangen, eigene Songs zu schreiben. Und einige wissen das auch, ich hatte ein Soloprojekt namens Miss Rockester. Da war so, glaube ich, das Größte, was ich gemacht habe, das Album mit der Elbland Philharmonie Sachsen, diese Orchesterplatte. Das war wirklich auch ein Kindheitstraum, den ich mir ja damit erfüllt habe. Und ich habe aber dann jetzt auch zum Schluss auch gemerkt, ich habe mich musikalisch ja auch in der Zeit jetzt weiterentwickelt. Und auch in meinem Soloprojekt am Anfang habe ich englischsprachige Musik gemacht. Deswegen, da kam auch der ursprüngliche Name her und dann hat sich das ins Deutsche gewandelt, weil ich gemerkt habe, dass mir meine Muttersprache doch sehr nahe liegt und dass ich bestimmte Feinheiten nur da wirklich auch formulieren kann, so wie ich es empfinde. Und dann habe ich mich der deutschen Sprache immer mehr zugewandt. Und irgendwann gab es dann eben auch die Diskrepanzen, dass Veranstalter gesagt haben, also der Name und das, was du dann machst, irgendwie geht das nicht so zusammen. Und ich hatte dieses Gefühl auch, dass ich diesen Schuhen so langsam entwachsen bin. Und das ist ja auch das Schöne am Künstler-Dasein. Du darfst dich kreativ neu erfinden. Und es ist auch gut, weil du ja wächst und mit deinen Erfahrungen wächst und immer am gleichen Standpunkt zu stehen, da kommen keine neuen Sachen zustande. Und deswegen hat man sich, glaube ich, irgendwann mal für den Job entschieden. Und mit der Entscheidung, jetzt auch die Mädels zu verlassen, um einfach die Kraft und auch die Möglichkeiten zu haben, mich meinem Solo-Projekt zu widmen, in dem Atemzug habe ich gedacht, jetzt mache ich alles neu. Jetzt ist genau so eine Zäsur, wo ich sage, okay, 25 Jahre schließe ich ab. Und ich nehme das als Neuaufbruch, als Neuanfang und packe das quasi den Koffer neu, mit neuem Namen, neuem Image. Und ich hatte mich auch schon musikalisch in diese Richtung entwickelt, so in diesen deutschsprachigen Retropop-Soul-Bereich. Und dann habe ich gedacht, jetzt ziehe ich das in Gänze durch. Mein Herz schlägt sehr dafür, hat es schon immer getan. Und jetzt habe ich auch so das Handwerkszeug an der Hand, das zu machen. Das war jetzt so der grobe Werk gegangen. Nun ist es nach einem Vierteljahrhundert in einer Band gewesen zu sein, ja sicherlich nicht einfach. Weil es ist ja sehr unkomfortabel, da plötzlich so ins kalte Wasser zu springen und das auch noch alleine zu machen.” Über ihre neuen Solopläne und die erste Single unter dem Namen “Smilla” spricht Silvana im aktuellen Podcast “Axel trifft”.

Ausserhalb von Sachsen gilt Sächsisch als ein Dialekt. Innerhalb von Sachsen ist den Menschen klar, in jeder Ecke des Freistaates wird ein anderer Dialekt gesprochen. In der Lausitz klingen die Menschen ganz anders als im Leipziger Tiefland, rund um Meissen wieder ganz anders als rund um Chemnitz und das Erzgebirge hat seine ganz eigene Ansammlung von Mundarten. Tina Goldschmidt ist gebürtige Chemnitzerin, ist in Leipzig aufgewachsen, hat in Bremen Sozialwissenschaften studiert, in Oxford ihren Master gemacht und in Stockholm promoviert. Jetzt lebt sie wieder in Sachsen, im Leipziger Land und startet in diesem Frühling so richtig durch mit kleinen, lustigen Videos, in denen es ums Sächsisch sprechen geht. Auf Instagram folgen ihrem Profil “Schnappatmig” mittlerweile über 114.000 Menschen, auf Tiktok sind es auch schon über 60.000 Follower. Im aktuellen Podcast “Axel Trifft” erzählt Tina, wie sie von der Soziologin zur Influencer wurde, worum es in ihren Videos geht, und was sie vom “Sächsisch Sprechen” hält.

Internationally, Germany is known for its elegant Meissen porcelain dishes and traditional salt-grazed beer jugs and steins. To identify the different porcelain styles within each of these genres, collectors have to analyze the porcelain marks. Identifying marks on a piece of porcelain is generally the first step in determining the overall value of an antique. However, if you are new to antiques, you may not know how to identify antique German porcelain marks. This detailed guide carries vital information on how to differentiate antique German porcelain from fakes and copies.

If you ever come to Dresden, and if you like art, architecture and history, you very much should, you may want to turn into Augustusstrasse right by the Residenzschloss. What you fnd there is the largest porcelain artwork in the world, 102 metres long and made from 23,000 Meissen porcelain tiles. This is the “Fürstenzug”, the procession of princes. It was made to celebrate 800 years of the House of Wettin who ruled over what we now know as the land of Saxony. It portrays 35 margraves, electors, dukes and kings from 1127 to 1904. Being essentially a 19th century artwork, it depicts all these Saxon rulers as powerful military leaders surrounded by their fighting men and important nobles, all in contemporary costume. There are 94 depictions and only one female figure in the whole procession. So, was the lasting rule of the House of Wettin built upon their martial prowess? Well they did fight a lot, but the true source of their power is depicted in one of the very last figures of the procession coming after the princes, the army, the intellectuals and the artists and largely obscured by the images of the carpenter and the builder involved in the project. What that figure represents and what lay at the heart of the Wettiner success, we will find out…The music for the show is Flute Sonata in E-flat major, H.545 by Carl Phillip Emmanuel Bach (or some claim it as BWV 1031 Johann Sebastian Bach) performed and arranged by Michel Rondeau under Common Creative Licence 3.0.As always:Homepage with maps, photos, transcripts and blog: www.historyofthegermans.comFacebook: @HOTGPod Twitter: @germanshistoryInstagram: history_of_the_germansReddit: u/historyofthegermansPatreon: https://www.patreon.com/Historyofthegermans

Die Erfolgsautorin Romy Fölck ist bekanntgeworden durch ihre Elbmarsch Krimireihe. Warum die Schriftstellerin diesmal das Krimigenre verlassen hat, um ein "Wohlfühlbuch" zu schreiben, das erzählt sie im aktuellen Podcast "Axel Trifft". Ausserdem verrät sie, was es für ein Gefühl ist, mit dem "Die Rückkehr der Kraniche" aus dem Stand in die Spiegelbeststellerliste gestürmt zu sein: "Ja, verrückt...also, ich konnte es gar nicht richtig fassen, weil es ja ein Genrewechsel war bei mir, dass das tatsächlich so gut geklappt hat. Also, ich bin ganz happy. Die Autorin, gebürtige Meissnerin, hat in Dresden Jura studiert, dann Karriere in der Wirtschaft gemacht, um vor ziemlich genau 10 Jahren nach Hamburg zum ziehen und dort als Schriftstellerin zu arbeiten. "Die Rückkehr der Kraniche" spielt wie ihre Krimis auch in der Elbmarsch, das Buch allerdings als grosser Familienroman angelegt, es geht um mehrere Generationen Frauen einer Familie, die in ihre Heimat zurückkehren, um die alte Mutter zu pflegen. Romy Fölck erzählt mit viel Liebe zum Detail die Lebenswege der Frauen, ihre Konflikte und ihre gemeinsamen Familienmomente. Ihre Bücher schreibt sie meist in einem ganz normalen Arbeitstag von 9 bis 18 Uhr in ihrem Haus bei Hamburg: "Manchmal ist wirklich wie 8 Stunden Aufsatzschreiben, also, nicht wie sich das viele vorstellen, abends mit einem Glas Rotwein auf der Couch sitzen und dann mal so bis Nachts tippen. Der Typ bin ich nicht, den gibts sicherlich auch. Aber ich bin wirklich ein Tagschreiber. Ich brauche einen ganz normalen Arbeitstag. Ich geh morgens laufen, dann gehts an den Schreibtisch, ich mache Mittagspause und abends 18 Uhr, 18:30 Uhr, mache ich dann Feierabend." Im aktuellen Podcast gehts auch um Romys Kindheit und Jugend in Meissen, welche Rolle Musik in ihrem Leben spielt und natürlich auch um die Entstehungsgeschichte von "Die Rückkehr der Kraniche".

Kencan Dengan Tuhan - Sabtu, 8 Oktober 2022 "Aku mau bersyukur kepada TUHAN dengan segenap hatiku, aku mau menceritakan segala perbuatan-Mu yang ajaib." (Mazmur 9:2) Renungan: Sejak lahir Karl May buta karena kekurangan gizi. Neneknya sering menghibur Karl dengan bercerita atau mendongeng. Ternyata cerita dan dongeng dari neneknya menumbuhkan imajinasi Karl. Saat ia berumur 5 tahun, Karl kecil menjalani operasi mata dan berhasil. Matanya kini dapat melihat lagi. Ayahnya mendidik dengan keras, menanamkan sifat ulet dan tangguh. Berkat nenek dan ayahnya, Karl di kemudian hari menjadi penulis hebat. Karl May meninggal dunia di Meissen pada 30 Maret 1912, dalam usia 70 tahun. Pada masa kini kegiatan mendongeng dan bercerita mungkin sudah jarang dilakukan para orang tua kepada anak-anaknya, karena mereka terlalu disibukkan dengan gadgetnya masing-masing. Padahal dengan bercerita atau mendongeng dapat mendekatkan anak-anak dengan orang tuanya, apalagi kalau orang tua bercerita tentang Tuhan dan cinta kasihnya. Pemazmur mengungkapkan isi hatinya, "Aku mau menceritakan segala perbuatan-Mu yang ajaib." Sungguh luar biasa. Bukankah banyak hal ajaib dan mukjizat telah kita alami di dalam Tuhan yang patut kita ceritakan dan teruskan kepada orang-orang di sekitar kita secara khusus anak dan cucu kita? Mari kita kumpulkan kesaksian hidup kita di dalam Tuhan, kemudian kita ceritakan pada banyak orang, secara khusus orang-orang terdekat kita atau anak dan cucu kita, agar sejak dini mereka mendengar dan mengalami kasih Tuhan yang luar biasa melalui kehadiran kita. Kesaksian hidup kita di dalam Tuhan akan semakin memantapkan iman orang-orang yang ada di sekitar kita, sehingga mereka dapat tetap setia pada Tuhan walau banyak godaan yang berusaha menjauhkan mereka dari kasih Tuhan. Tuhan Yesus memberkati. Doa: Tuhan Yesus, aku ingin menceritakan segala perbuatan-Mu yang ajaib kepada orang-orang terdekatku, agar mereka juga bisa mengalami kasih-Mu yang luar biasa. Amin. (Dod).

In 2021 kocht het Rijksmuseum Meissen porselein uit de collectie Oppenheimer. Een bijzondere aankoop, want de stukken waren eerder al in het Rijksmuseum aanwezig en in 2019 gerestitueerd aan de erven van het echtpaar Franz en Margarethe Oppenheimer. Onder het nazi-regime werden zij gedwongen te vluchten en verkochten zij hun indrukwekkende verzameling Meissen porselein. Hoe ging hun vlucht? Hoe kwam de collectie vervolgens in het Rijksmuseum terecht? En hoe gaat zo'n restitutie naar nabestaanden in het werk? Presentator Astrid Sy gaat met experts van het Rijksmuseum Mara Lagerweij en Femke Diercks in gesprek over het bijzondere verhaal achter dit echtpaar en hun verzameling. Wil je meer weten?

Hvis der var valg i Tyskland i morgen, ville oppositionspartiet CDU blive det største parti. Tyske medier skriver, at partiets leder Friedrich Merz har held med at drive den tyske regering rundt i manegen på spørgsmål om krigen i Ukraine og energikrisen. Men hvor meget af æren kan Angela Merkels 'efter-efter-efterfølger' tage? Vi undersøger også, hvorfor CDU har få kvindelige medlemmer. Senere ser vi på de kilometerlange køer ved den dansk-tyske grænse, som har fået Stefan Seidler fra Sydslesvigsk Vælgerforening til at klage til Danmarks ambassadør i Tyskland over den danske grænsekontrol.

The porcelain makers of Meissen in the city of the same name, in Saxony, have been producing fine porcelain for over 300 years. And Meissen is one of the oldest and best-known luxury brands in Germany.

Die Aufnahme dieser Podcast-Folge war etwas ganz Besonderes für Philipp: Er war zu Besuch bei seiner Lieblingsmarke aus der Kindheit und hat mit dem Marketing- und Vertriebsleiter gesprochen - Thomas Rost von Wendt & Kühn. Die Aufnahme hat sogar im Wohnzimmer von Olly Wendt stattgefunden, in dem ihr Spirit noch weiter lebt. Wendt & Kühn aus Grünhainichen stellt seit 1915 einzigartige Figuren aus Holz her. Der wichtigste Markenbotschafter ist, wie Thomas berichtet, der 11 Punkte Engel (Grünhainichener Engel®). Thomas erzählt von seinem Werdegang und von seiner aktuellen Lieblingsmarke sowie der aus der Kindheit. Beim Sprechen über die Marke Wendt & Kühn kommt Thomas selbst ganz ins Schwärmen. Sie steht dafür, Freude zu bereiten. Um die Kontaktpunkte so gestalten zu können, wie sie es sich vorstellen und ihren Werten treu zu bleiben, haben sie das Händlernetzwerk ganz schön ausgedünnt. Ein mutiger und emotionaler Schritt. Es geht außerdem darum, wie Wendt & Kühn die Markenkommunikation den aktuellen Bedürfnissen angepasst hat, ohne dabei die Werte zu verletzen. Es geht um Kooperationen, bspw. mit Meissen, die Wendt & Kühn Welt, in der die Marke spürbar wird und darum, wie sich KundInnen in die Marke verlieben. Wie schafft man es eine Traditionsmarke zu werden und länger als 100 Jahre auf dem Markt zu bestehen? Wie kann eine Fangemeinde aufgebaut werden, die nach so vielen Jahren sogar noch wächst? Genau diese Fragen beantwortet Thomas in seinem sehr kurzweiligen Gespräch mit Philipp, der mit leuchtenden Augen aus Ollys Wohnzimmer gegangen ist.

Choques entre manifestantes y miembros de la fuerza pública en Usme, sur de Bogotá, dejaron dos menores de edad heridos.

Welcome to remnant revolution podcast is Gary Duncan, your host, and I've got a very exciting a guest with me today. As you know, we've been going through a lot of edicts and mandates and all the things with this Coronavirus and the vaccine. Well, I don't call it a vaccine. It's a biological weapon. But that's beside the point. This jab that we're being required to take a lot of the businesses are adopting what our government has pushed out there to fight this disease, which really is the best way to fight is through prayer, and through natural immunity. And we'll get into that later. But my guest, Nick, cat around Oh, is that correct? Nick,you got a Gary, that'sokay.You nailed it. If you want to get a little extra, right, you give it the fingers up.As you see on the screen, folks, and if you're listen to the podcast, I've got his websites called goofy vaccine. He is a Disney employ. And let me bring you in here. And welcome Nick, I appreciate you coming on the program and tell us what's you know, to tell us what's going on with these edicts and the things that you're just you're running into. So tell us a little bit about Oh, first of all, I got ahold of you just by reading an article I saw that pop times had done an article and I saw you in there and I thought, well, this is interesting. This guy's standing up. He's a Christian. You know, he loves God. And he's standing up for what's right and I think that's why you're on the show your spirit warrior. And we love spirit warriors. So Nick, tell us a little bit about you know, how long you've been with Disney and a little bit about the background so people can catch up to what's going on. Gary, thanks for having me on. Yeah, we've had some really good conversations when you reached out originally and we talked you know we just right away got into it. You know, there's so much that like minded Christians right now can talk about forever but my name is Nick catarratto I am a server at Disney World I've been there 16 years I was a shop steward and a committee leader which means I was a little bit higher up than just average and in helping with worker issues and things like that and it was really rewarding to be involved with these mandates of course, I it's been so much leading up to this right it It hasn't just been the mandates it's just been a steady decline of reasonableness. And what they're asking us you know, it's almost don't believe your lying eyes. And you know, they're inverting everything that's right and wrong, you know, the right the riots are peaceful, you know, two years to flatten the curve. China's trying to shutting down Wuhan you can't get anywhere in China but they can fly all over the world and somehow that makes sense and nobody questions that there's just been so many things that build up to it. And then coming up to the mandate it felt like it was too big too big of a train to get in front of it I didn't imagine I was going to try to fight it what could one guy do? But I also felt it was really interesting how God was leading me this whole time because I all through the to 2020 I kept asking God What do I do? What do I do the urgency I see the country falling apart. I see Marxist ideologies coming on everywhere. I know I know the the hate towards the church, CRT theory. There's a great book by voti Bachmann if anybody has heard of od Bachmann I recommend you read that if you really want to understand he's been sounding the alarm for about 10 years. I think you all the data research and the facts in there on my one of my episodes is with kind of a replay with voting Bachman top. Not a speech, what do you call him? Kind of a sermon. And I replayed that. And that's one of my best showing. Best playing podcast because it is I mean spot on for CRT he takes you through the history of it. It's very, very good as if you want to, you want to know in about 45 to 50 minutes the history of how we got to where we're at and what the church needs to do. That's a good one to listen to. So yeah, he's he's definitely body boggling. For those who don't know, is a black pastor. He's from Compton, LA, and are born there. So he, he tells a story in the book because he never really shares it. But he wants people to understand he's just, he's not being propped up. He's been in this battle a long time. And he was kind of on the other side of the fence, not really understanding things. But as he's matured, and understands the gospel more, he's been warned sounding the alarm. So I recommend you do do I recommend voting Bachmann on those and he's, he's got a new book out called faultlines. Wow, that's incredible. Yeah. So you know, definitely, I'd love to have him on the show as well. But Beside that, so now, Call me when you do I want in on it. Okay. Yeah, we could do a zoom meeting thing. Hey, on the lines of what you were talking about with, with seeing all this coming down the line? Let me ask you real quick for I forget how, how does when you start feeling that way? Is it? Is it because you're because I get this comment a lot people see me as too political and in this to this, you know, and it's not good to be political in the church. Can you talk about politics, and I'm like, you know, we got to change that. Because it's, this is why we're here is because we don't get involved in government. We don't get involved in this public square. We don't get involved in the school system. So as you saw this starting to happen, do you feel like God, like you said God was was taking you down this road? Because that's exactly where I was five years ago, started seeing stuff, you know, with Brett Kavanaugh, you know, when they went after Brett Kavanaugh, like they did, I'm like, you know, because I'm self employed. And I thought that could be anybody. It doesn't have to, it doesn't have to, it could be a lie can destroy a man's career. A lie could come out about you or me. And if there's enough people that jump on it, they could try to destroy it, they could actually destroy our business. Here. Look what happened at the border recently, the crisis at the border with all these migrants at the bridge wasn't addressed. I don't think they really care. But they did care when they had the lassos on the horses. And now they're saying with a straight face that there were whips and and there's no retraction they run with it, they find that that is a lie that will stick and it's red mean for their base. Yeah, just like the assault weapons, you know, the assault weapons when they're really just a rifle with lots of fancy dressing on it lipstick on a rifle. And it's an assault rifle now, so we got to ban all rifles, right? Yeah. And they and with that particular, I heard last night they're taking away the horses. So they're tying the hands of the people and the President is talking about the Maxine war. Maxine, is it Maxine Waters, but a lot of political are speaking up like this actually happened that they were whipping these people with their reins on their horses. It's a distraction. It's a distraction, but but it's absurd that and that they get away with it. And all the media that they the media knows they're looking at the video, but they they just repeated anyway. And for anybody. It's amazing that that I'm finding as I'm speaking out, and a lot of people are coming forward and sharing their stories with me. It's there's other people, but it's mostly Christians that are realizing, wow, this is really bad and something's wrong. And and I have heard the same thing about not being political. I will say, when I watched the whole Trump thing I felt I felt, you know, God, for those of us who are believers, or those people that, you know, how many times would we stand out 16 hours in the rain for Jesus. And they were doing that for Trump. And I would have Trump any day over what we got. And I supported him and I still support them. But we can't let anybody or anything be an idol. We can't depend on people. And I think I think that's where Christians get confused. They think it's all one thing or the other. And I think the danger is when we idolize any man, you're going to fall into an up to a bad place. So, you know, it's okay. You know, I'm involved with a group here in Polk County in Florida. And it's they're called CCDF. County citizens defending freedom. And they are basically rallying on their local communities to affect change from the top from the bottom up. And they're doing a wonderful job supporting me and supporting the nurses that are fighting against the mandates. And I don't believe for a second that God wants us just to lay down at this time. I think I think we had a prayer before and you had a wonderful prayer before we started. And we talked about, you know, your prayer was about God, how would you want us to do this and help us to have the right spirit because You need a level of anger, but you don't want to come across as angry, you know, we should be be angry and sin not, Paul says. So we need to be angered and inspired to fight against these things. But we definitely want to still have love in our hearts for our neighbors, even when they disagree with us. And I definitely think I was one of those who think we shouldn't be in the political process. But a lot of that was because they murky the waters of separation of church and state. And you know, when you dig deeper into that, what they tell us is separation of church and state is not, it just meant that the state cannot mandate a religion, it didn't say that we couldn't have faith involved in our public square, it doesn't mean we can't pray in the open, it doesn't mean you know, you can't have prayer in schools, or you can invoke prayer in court like they're trying to do and stuff like that, or putting your hand on the Bible. It just meant because of prior history, people were, you know, if it was King James or, or, or queen, Elizabeth, or different, different rulers in those times, they would subject their subjects to a particular religion, if it was called cism. Or if it was, you know, the Episcopal Church or King Henry did. So the separation of church and state was that it wasn't that we couldn't have our faith in the public square. And I think they fooled A lot of us and we bought into that. And what what, you know, what, you what, you see, they're teaching our kids in school today and what's being allowed? How, how, how can we justify as Christians not being about protecting our children? And if that doesn't, if that doesn't rile up some amount of anger, and an unjust, it's unjust, and it's makes you angry, but as Christians, we can come we can come with righteous saying, you know, just like a parent, you know, when we believe in corporal punishment, you take a you know, go out to the tree and grab a little twig and you start whacking on the backside a little child because he was being an idiot. And you know, because I happen to me a lot when I was a kid, you know, it wasn't, I was, they weren't being angry and hating me, they were loving me, because if you spare the rod, you spoil the child. Well, if we spare the rod to America, it's going to be sold. And guess what, it's bold, because we didn't, you know, I don't, you can say God, I don't know how to approach it. But we've we've been acting like our country has been run, like a bunch of children, Daddy has not ruled our country. And when daddy Trump I say his daddy, the only person that really looked like a daddy that came in and start saying, we're not gonna do this, this is not going to happen. And then the children threw a tantrum. And they throw tantrums by burning buildings down and calling you racist and every name in the book and all that stuff. So you know, the whole purpose of my podcast is to find out what's the church going to do Who are the people that are acting in a righteous way but also whipping the baby and telling you know the kid you know, you get your butt in the house Don't ever let me Don't ever let me see you do that again. And we serve God we don't serve man those kind of things. So sorry interrupt if I could. degress Yeah, I know we're covering a lot so I think a lot of what's happened to is you have people that are real have really abused their children and they've used those examples that reason not to do to do anything and and the problem is we need to be adults. And and and it's not one or the other there there are variables and we need to address those and that we see that in politics. But I also wanted to share a quick story I have a friend of mine he is about six four, he's a big old big old boy. And nice nice guy. And and I asked him I said how do you turn out so nice, you know, use a rough looking guy and he was a lumber guy. And he says, Well, you know, I thought I was I was hot shot, you know, played football. I was big young. My dad was about five, five, and I mouthed off to him one time too many. And he said I want to teach you a lesson son and you're gonna learn it. And he said he'd beat my butt from sunrise to sundown all over the yard than that day and it changed it changed the projection of my life. And in disciplines necessary discipline is necessary and not because anybody wants to punish anybody but because it helps to guide us and we know God disciplines us as believers. And he says he doesn't he doesn't love us that he's not disciplined as he does it for our own good so so just getting into that part. We'll move on but yeah, I was thinking on those things. Alright, so back to Disney because that's where that's where you're employed and with the with the mandate so you, you start you saw saw this coming down the pipe, you saw all the things that we're doing On, take me take me a little bit further into that as, as you're seeing all these things happen. And it's like, I've got to do something. I mean, that's what I think is so cool, but you're one guy that said, I've had enough. Yeah, people, I hear a lot about how brave I am. And my joke and partially true is I just got fed up. I got they, they took me to the brink. And you know that that was definitely a factor in me stepping up. I had gotten call from union leadership, which I was involved with. And and we had new the non union employees were now mandated, but they had a just sprung it on the union that they would be negotiating with the union. And I was told that your union, Disney is going to do this. Absolutely. There's no stopping it. And they have a right to do it. legally. Somehow, they believe that and they were going to work out the religious and medical exemptions. I being pretty much the lone conservative on that. On that group. I voiced my concerns for mandates. I went down the whole list and how absurd it all is. But I was not. I knew it was too big. And it was a train moving too fast for me to stand in front of so my choice wasn't going to make a difference. Interestingly enough, my wife tested positive for COVID the next day. Tuesday, we were separating, but I have some pre existing health conditions. We were We were quarantining in the house to hopefully to have me avoid getting COVID but of course we you know, being having it hit home after it hadn't hit us home and after that whole wave where everything was like it was quieting down and it actually seemed like maybe these vaccines were working. We didn't know what the reasoning was behind it. But you know, you start thinking well, maybe these vaccines are working and things requiring down we're going to get back to normal. But then we got hit with it and it made me dig back into the data. It made me start to to look at look at treatments I heard of ivermectin out there, I had no idea what it was because I had stopped looking into it. I was busy go back to work and working on other things. Tuesday about three o'clock my heart started to race at about 150 beats a minute, and it would fluctuate and then 141 55 after about six hours of that a cousin of mine who's a nurse says you should really just out of precaution, get to the hospital, with with the concerns, health concerns you have and I was out I was praying the whole time going god why why is this happening and I felt my prayers hitting the ceiling, which was really strange thing, but I would understand later which was a big thing. I get to the emergency room. The admitting nurse checks me and they do the COVID test. They they do the EKG and everything on me they see my heart's racing but it was they were loaded with COVID patients but the admitting nurse says it's the COVID you and I you got COVID and that's what's causing your heart to race and my fever went to 103 the aches and chills everything came so in the waiting area was seven hours and I was just squirming in a chair you know just with uncomfortability but I finally got an emergency room and you know got in there and they put me on an IV and anti inflammatories and fluids got my heart rate down to about 100 finally a day later it would it would go back to normal but when the doctor came in very nice guy very concerned and he was concerned for me in my in my health concerns that I was dealing with he warned me there's nothing we could do for you right now. But you know you need to go monitor your oxygen take Tylenol and when you go into crisis It was like you've when it happens you need to come back and that was it. That was it. And my mom was a nurse for 32 years I got family in medicine never in my life that I hear of anybody being as sick as I was you know prior to COVID that they would just send me home and told me to take Tylenol I would have gotten a z pack. So you know so here I go home and for a couple days I think well we're you know we're taking our supplements we kind of know all the things to take. We were doing well we were getting weak we were getting out there and getting some sun every day. But then my wife's cough was getting really bad and her chest was hurting from the cough and I started to step out of precaution. I was reaching out I got ahold of my doctor finally who I guess they were overwhelmed. And he told me about the flcc web CCC website frontline doctors, and he recommended that protocol and he got us the steroids. The wreath of Meissen and he said he highly recommends the ivermectin I said let's do it. And we could only get the ivermectin that night it was late and they told me to come back in the morning for the for the other two things. from two hours after we took the ivermectin my wife's cough started to subside our chest released two days later we were fine. I don't know if we would have gotten better anyways, but we I noticed the ivermectin helped it quick and it worked. And since then, we saw Joe And I'll try to move through a quick since then we saw Joe Rogan, the famous podcaster. He You know, when everybody heard he got sick, they wrote his obituaries they want they were wishing him to die. He took the ivermectin he got better, and they lost their minds. And they wrote the hit job where they were taking the horse dewormer out in Oklahoma. And that turned out to be a false story and the Rolling Stone and Rachel Maddow and everybody ran with it. And it turns out the doctor would didn't even work there anymore. And there was nobody coming in Odeon. And then the funny thing is here after we have stood up, the local paper, Orlando Sentinel did a story on us and I talked about my experience with ivermectin and they said, horse, the warmer we took the horse dewormer disproven horse dewormer and they know better I mean, as of 2015 and won a Nobel Prize for outstanding work in humans. It's been deployed all over in Peru when they when they use it on a national level, it dropped the the death rates by 14 times. And then when the next administration came in and took it away, it raised them 13 times. So ivermectin is working and works in India right now. It's working all over the world. And I've been using it they've been using it in Africa for I think 15 years or so there's a there's a looked at when I heard about things like that I went in start doing my research. So I looked and I found out that they've they have treated people in Africa, it's for malaria, thanks what they were using it for, since the early 80s and 90s 75 million people have been treated with avermectin for parasites in Africa, okay. And nobody has died. I mean, I go to the source I don't you know, when I hear something I start looking at and so you look at the you can go on all the different government websites, and they'll all the different trial studies and all those things. And I'll start looking at that and reading it for myself. And I was looking at this trial and conference and comments about it. It was an article I think, from one of the trials that refer referenced the study, and the use of ivermectin in Africa, and I'm thinking 75 million I posted on my Facebook 75 million people have been using this stuff. So why you know, and it's what, three cents appeal there's your answer it's three cents appeal a dose versus $3,000 for REM disavowal or whatever they call it it's in the hospitals and it's in the protocol they may so you know, that's where my little red flag my discernment from the Holy Spirit tells me that okay Don't believe everything you hear trust in the Lord and when I start following through with that things just don't add up they're not adding up and that was that was a big alarm belt for me because when I when I saw these these data points Gary and like you're sharing I realized they're killing people that killing people they're that the doctor from frontline doctors peer quarry, if you listen to him speak brilliant guy. And he really cares and he spoke to the Senate last year he said your protocols are failing. This is working look at all the data and the research and they make a million excuses and yet they're they're fighting and now here we're fighting in Polk County for right to try. And pharmacies are refusing to fill the prescriptions that the doctors are writing and there's such a concerted effort to start early treatment stop early treatments with things that work and I put the pieces together and it's just common sense I said if they know these things are working and they're so against it and they're saying sends and people are dying why when they you give them the right to try it and why are they trying so hard to stop it and it becomes obvious it's money it's it increases our power increases hospitalization and death rates. Hospital and death rates are the stick they used to beat everybody into submission in fear and you take you take you you bring out early treatments at the government this anthesis doing the hospitalization rates went off a cliff as soon as he put these Mana monopol antibody clinics all over the state and and they want to stop that, you know, they've changed they've changed the wording now you know you the AMA has come out with guidelines for doctors to use and they they told doctors to quit using the word hospitalization and to use death. So there's a there's a template that shows all the different words they're supposed to stop using when you start using new. So and and here's the thing. What we need to realize is that Fauci said it himself. He was asked point blank, I think it was somebody maybe on CNN, he they asked him, is this a Has this ever been used on humans? And he said no This has never been used on humans, you know that he snow a vaccine? Well, this so called vaccine, this has never been used. Okay. So what he meant by that what he was saying is that we didn't run it through the typical trials that you do on humans, the trial is what's being injected in people, we and everybody that is taken that backs that jab is the trial, they're not there, this is they're still figuring this thing out. So the fact that, legally they can't be doing that, because you can't give somebody a trial. As a widespread correction, this doesn't. And I think we will get into this or we're talking about now, the vaccine, so called vaccine is not a vaccine, because vaccines prevent you from getting a disease. This this, and I think people still believe that this vaccine keeps them from getting COVID which it doesn't, it helps you reduce the effects of the disease. And, and I was gonna say, even at Disney World, on the website, Goofy vaccine calm, I wrote an op ed to Disney. And I could have covered a lot more but I tried to go over these basic points. at Disney the other day, a cast member fully vaccinated, died. There's a lot of cast members that are getting sick. And even last night when when I was listening to the news on the Orange County, employees here in Orlando, a lot of them I think there were nine deaths. Three were fully vaccinated for were fully vaccinated. I mean, it doesn't have the the idea to mandate a vaccine. I believe in freedom of choice. If people feel vaccines, their choice, I will try to try to tell them how I feel about it and why. But if that's their choice, I respect their choice. But to mandate it, under the circumstances that this thing's falling apart right before our eyes and it and I'd like to give a little, a little bit of more data on what I learned the other day in India. I thought it was 5%. But I heard it's up to 13% fully vaccinated in the country of India. But they are have ivermectin going through the country right now. And they're actually suing one of the who representatives that's in India, who put a try to put a stop to it and the desperate started going up again. And now the the Indian bar suing her, but the depth that the 23 it's 23 per million right now have COVID in the in the country of India, United States with its vaccination rate about half they say is about 450 per million. Israel, which is now on his third and fourth boosters, fully vaccinated. 85% of the country, they are over 1000 people per million the highest in the world. Common Sense should kick in and go. Okay, we hoped it was going to be good. We believed it was going to be good. We gave it the best effort. But you would think at some point if people were sincere, honest, common sense would just kick in and go well, we need to stop. I mean, the swine flu vaccine program that that vaccinated 25% of the population back under the Ford administration, I think killed 26 people and for safety concerns. They halted that right away. And here we are at open veers and we know it's way under reported. 15,000 deaths 750,000 adverse reactions. And I got I got an interview for NPR and the guy was attacked started attacking me on it was safe and effective and who was it to talk out against it? And I said well have you looked at open veers he says I don't even know what open veers is. Talking about the anger, the anger came up on me and I started yelling at them. Your reporter reporting on mandates and vaccines don't know what our open beers is. Oh my gosh, that was it. That was the end of the interview. Because I was just I was amazed that a reporter could be covering that subject, and not even understand and know what open veers was. So it's just the the willful ignorance, or the outright lying is just incredible. It's off the chains right now. Right? And they're using the, you know, CDC and all these people they're using, well, it's not been under enough trials. It's not been studied enough. We don't need to study it. It's proof. We've got proof. We don't need studies. We need to show all the history of people being helped by this medicine. That's all we need. Well, yeah, we're not going to get it so and then there's no trials for you know what was interesting to me. I was watching Tucker last night and he brought on can remember the doctor he comes on all the time. Right now it slips my mind with the glasses. And they were talking about early treatments and they talked about the antibody treatment and, and vitamin D and stuff. But he said Merck is creating a medicine right now and he was all excited and it stops the viral load and it stopped in its tracks, and I was like that's ivermectin, exactly as described ivermectin, but Merck is going to make the version of it. And it's probably going to be $50 a pill, I'm sure or more. And that and to me, and Tucker is such a sharp guy, and I commend and God bless him for, you know, not taking prisoners on all sides most of the time. But I was surprised that that that that pass the smell test, because ivermectin already exists, it's safe and effective. Not like the vaccine being safe and effective. And now they're talking about Merck doing the same thing. It here's the thing. I noticed, I didn't see that interview, but a couple of weeks ago or something, something triggered in me to think, to hear I heard you know, yes, the report that they were coming out with a thing that was gonna stop COVID and all that. And it happens to be the same company that created right Madonna didn't Madonna, invent or create ivermectin? Who whoever, whoever, remember? Yeah, whoever's drug it is, I think it's one of those. For ivermectin, that same company now has come out saying that they're working on a formula that's going to stop it. And and you know, the sin a cynical part of me, or maybe just the common sense. investigative part of me says, oh, hmm. Oh, there's a thought that came to my mind. Is there gonna? It might it not, it might not be the same. It might be a dangerous, they might throw something in there. I hate to feel that way. But oh, I didn't go that direction. But that's the thought. The direction I went was okay. So they've already produced ivermectin. And it's three cents appeal. Okay. And it's being used and everybody's getting better. That's using it. Well, and here I can see these guys sitting in the back office go Well, why don't we create ivermectin again, rename it something else? So now we can go, we'll partner with the government, like we always have, and sell it for $50 appeal. And we can make billions? And, you know, I guarantee you, man, I guarantee you, they will come out with a medicine. And now that I'm thinking it might be Merck that created are coming up with a new one. So yes, yes, the same company came out. Yeah. And so so here we are probably six months from now, a miracle drug that's gonna blow everybody away and make everybody better, is the exact same pill that people have been taken for 1520 years, that it's an A, you just follow the money. It's just follow the money. And Gary, they might actually make let it come to market. After they've already pressured, I just had a phone call. And those here in the studio with me, can vouch for it. Where the lady says there were there were 10 of her and her the 10 of them in her department, and Disney that didn't want the vaccine, they were all against it. And there were 11 and 10 of them caved and took the shot because they were worried about their job and providing for their families. And I think I think the strategy is there pushing off once everybody's vaccinated for whatever their reason is, right? Whatever their reason is, once are vaccinated, yeah, give them an ivermectin Who cares? You know, I think you know, and I'm, I'm seeing it, I saw record people send me I don't know how much you trust it. She said it was verified acid verify it, that in, they're going to deploy early treatments in Europe now. And they're going to be everywhere, and you're not going to need to take the vaccine. And maybe the common sense is the strategy is over, they've already forced so many people to take it, whatever their goal is, they've achieved it. And now Sure, let the people have ivermectin it's like a release valve. You know, and, and they seem to do that they give you a little release valve, and you feel like things have gotten a little bit better. But they, they've accomplished what they wanted to, and they'll just squeeze you down the road. They, from what I understand and looking at social engineering and things like that. You put the pressure on, you get people to push the envelope on them. And then you ease up and you give and that's kind of what we had, right? We had COVID back down, people felt good and safe again. And then you you bring the fear on again. And and that's that's sort of how they do it, it seems. Yeah. And we need to wake up to that. And what I would say here is that, like you said, What are they? What's the reasoning behind it? I think that where the church needs to come into this is to really seek the Holy Spirit to understand God revealed to me rough start revealing to the Christians and that's my Irish prayers that God start revealing to the Christians what the demonic scheme is, and start exposing it that's that that's really what we should be doing as Christians is exposing them where you're doing it, you're exposing, we're learning stuff, we're learning more. I'm asking the Holy Spirit to give us more insight, more wisdom, into just like, you know, when we see something we hear something that doesn't add As the Holy Spirit says, Yeah, that's because it's evil. There's an agenda behind it, and it's wrong. And and, unfortunately, the problem I'm seeing is when we do since that, like you since it, I'm sensing it, other people are sensing it, and we start to bring that out within our church, our local churches, you know, that's political, we can't talk about it, or you get shunned for it. And so, you know, that creates strife within the church, because you have one faction that believes vaccine is the greatest thing, and the other, believe that now I'm seeing stuff that's not adding up, it's dangerous. And now you have people within the church this or did or disagreeing. And again, the whole model podcast is, is branched off of Ephesians, 610. Through 2612. You know, we wrestle against principalities and, and in the heavenlies, and the evil in the heavenly. And there we are, man, we are, it is here it is within this culture. And I think that's the approach that I'm trying to continue to stay prayerful in is that this is a war we're in, we're actually getting physically attacked, we're getting spiritually attacked. And it's straight from the devil. You know, the the pharmaceutical companies, they're being run, but by Satan's minions, you know, in the heavenlies. They're perpetrating thoughts of these people that are running the country running pharmaceutical companies that run in the medical field, who do we trust anymore? You know, we used to hurt it the other day. When did we? Why should we be trusted in the medical field period, we put all of our hope and faith in doctors, okay. I'm not bashing doctors, but our hope and faith is in Jesus Christ. We We bless the doctors, because they're understanding if they know Christ, but when we put our all of our hope in medical, we're seeing what's happening, because we've put all of our hope in that, oh, they're doctors, they know everything. Well, now we have a lot of people in the medical field that are being God, pharmaceutical companies are being God there being God with this vaccine, when it gets down to the DNA level of our bodies, and they're manipulating that, to the extent that they are, they're creating. Gary, they're presenting it as a savior. You know, yes, yeah. I know, there's a lot of Christians who, who feel it was the best choice they feel. It was, you know, they wanted to protect their loved ones and stuff. And for some, it might work perfectly. Right. And I and I appreciate for those who did in those things. And those reasons, but when it comes right down to it at this point, when they're coercing people to take it against their conscience, they're presenting the vaccine as a savior, and, and everybody who refuses to take it as rejecting that Savior. And that's, that's just how, and if there's no other, there's another way to look at it. And you talked about the scripture in Ephesians, the one that rally me in my heart, and excuse me, Yeah, I got some right here. The one that rallied me, was Ephesians, five, one, have nothing to do with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather expose it. And when I came to that point, where I realized that we're literally knowingly killing people, by suppressing the truth of early treatments, and it seemed that the agenda was to just drive up the fear, to keep the power, and to get people vaccinated, we had to speak out. And for all those people in church, I can't worry about them anymore. If there's anybody out there that disagrees with that. We know when Elijah was running, you know, he ran he ran from Joseph Hall after he defeated to 450 profits about and he ended up in the cave, and God came and spoke to him. And he says, I've reserved 7000 people that have not bound and need to bail. And Paul repeats it in Romans again, he still has his people. And I think the best thing we could do, who God has already woken up to these things, is we got to be brave and stand even if we're by ourselves, even it's just a few of us. It's our responsibility to stand and speak the truth and pray, Lord willing that we could stay in as much spirit of love as we can. But with that righteous indignation fueling us because we're fighting against an evil, and we know we're not wrestling, wrestling against flesh and blood, we're wrestling against principalities and spiritual wickedness in high places. So we, those of us who stand and you know, some people are followers, some people are leaders, God, it's ultimately God. It's the Holy Spirit, responsibility to waken people to it and even bring people to Christ, right? We do our part. We remain obedient, and he'll take care The rest, and maybe he has a reason for the process. You know. And now as we see more and more information coming out, people are going to be I know people that are beginning to wake up. And I said something a month ago that that stuck with them. And you know, so we do our part, we can look back, Jesus says, anybody who puts the hand to the plow and looks back, it's not not worthy of Him. And I, and I take that with this situation. We just, if we, if we know I hate to, I hate to relate to us. This is not the gospel message. But it sure seems I I kind of I believe that all truth is part of God, anything related to truth goes back to him because he is the source of all goodness and truth. So when you're dealing with such darkness, and the issue, this issue that we're on the side of right now, is the truth in the face of darkness. Well, that's part of him. And I think by standing up, we're standing up for the truth in him, you know, my motive is because of that, and I put my hands in the plow now and there's no turning back. And you know, there's a lot of fear involved. When you start, you count the cost, and you realize what you're about to do. But once you, you know, a lot of it had to do God prepared me and he brought me, you know, he brought me to the promised land in a different way. But he brought me to the He brought me there, and he says, you can see the giants, but are you going to have faith I brought you this barn, all these things in your life. And like Joshua and Caleb, I said, Okay, I don't know how this is going to work out. I don't know. But I know you can. And I've said it from the beginning. I know God is able, he doesn't need, you know, if we don't praise Him, the rocks will cry out. We don't need. We don't, he doesn't need any of us. He uses us and we get to be a part of that. And by not speaking up when God brings you to that point. You're denying yourself, not only you're denying the glory of God, and faith in what everything he's able to do, you're denying yourself to be a partaker in that and the joy that comes with it, I'm exhausted because I've been going so, so much and so fast. But I have a piece that has come over me and and a so many amazing moments in so many amazing interactions that God has brought me in with. And I sit down and people I didn't even know that were Christian, who are who are seeing the same exact things I'm seeing, you know, all of a sudden, I met with the firefighters in Gainesville after we won that victory against the mandates over there. And I was with them and I went to lunch with a group of them. And we had fellowship, it was like a like a party because we were all in agreement with all these things. And that was really wonderful. So I think Christians you're denying yourself if God is bringing you to the point. And like Esther, you're there for such a time as this. Are you going to approach the king? Are you going to are you going to step out in faith? And like me Shaq? Me Shaq be Shaq and abednego and Daniel Misha? Yeah, yeah. I met I met the one little side note here I met the the Africa was at that show back in early 90s with the three old ladies and his name was Miss Shaq. Anyway, I won't go into I met the guy because I asked him I said, well, where'd you get your name? Because, you know, you think of this story? Me Shaq Bendigo and the other dude, whatever his name was, you know, I've got all Thomas. And he told me that's where he got his name. His parents named him out of the book out of that story. So it's got us on our honeymoon. My wife we actually got on a talk show back early 90s. We were down in San Diego for a honeymoon. And we got our Los Angeles we got on this on this late night TV show. And he was the guest and we got to be picked ask the question live on national television. It's pretty cool. It's really yeah, it's something so simple, right? Yeah. Well, who knows the testimony that that gave? Yeah. Oh, I didn't think about that. Yeah, because he and what's really funny is in the last interview, in our studio here we have Josiah Josiah helps us with All Things tech and I were asking him his name because I don't know personally anybody named Josiah is faster his father's a pastor and they name all how many kids for four kids and they're all got big biblical names so it's good and a nice to see that I got you in twice today. Well, if we got a few more minutes let's get it let's actually get into it a little bit more about the Disney connection here. And with the firefighters I know you're being you're kind of becoming an activist and helping people and in fighting against so let's get into that part about what what's going on with the Disney part and and these people potentially losing their job. When's the date for this to actually happen? Because I'm just wondering, had to get their first shot with Pfizer and Madonna already to be compliant. The j&j shot is October Six to be compliant on October 22. I'm being told that people are being cast members employees are being told to have their vaccination cards on them. So I don't know how Disney is going to determine when I think they I heard they were extending that first shot for a few people that they would commit to. I'm getting the shot kind of thing and sign off on it. So So It's here. It's here, but we've done a few good victories. Our our attorney here at CCDF. Jeff Childers got the victory and the injunction. Gainesville. Oh, let me tell you. Yeah. I'm glad to sit man. He has got one of the best blog posts I've ever read. Recently. It's on coffee and coffee. Beans and COVID. I think the name of it. Yeah. Oh, it is so good. He's, he's a great guy. He's, I want to get him on the show. He's my next. He really? Yeah, I've actually reached out to him left a message yesterday. Okay, you got a connection. Hook me up. Yeah, cuz I want to go over that article. It was so right on. Yeah, I'll text you. I'll text you the phone number. Jeff gave me a phone number for okay. And I've got it. I've got it right here. See this? That's part of it. That's one six, I think is part number two. Let me just read this because this is a song about spirit of fear, says here's the thing, a spirit of fear is a spiritual problem. It's not a medical problem. It's not a biological problem. It's not a political problem. And it's not a scientific problem. It's a spiritual problem. If we only had some kind of worldwide organization that was devoted to addressing spiritual problems, we sure could use something like that for a time like this. Let me know if you think of one. I love his humor. Yeah. And I mean, he's so right on. And he takes you know, he, he makes he puts a hard hit on on pastors. He puts a hard hit on Christians. He challenged them. Yeah, very much. So and I'm like, Ron, brother. I was fortunate. I was fortunate to have him on the team. When I decided and to step forward. And, and his his words, he was really encouraging in a lot of ways. But one of his words, were you now you're no longer lukewarm. Okay, yeah, he does speak about that as well. So if with with the, with the mandate, if, if everybody that didn't want to take the jab, just walked out? Would that hurt Disney would that what would that possibly cause them not to be able to run a park or run a ride or cause enough disruption that they would start thinking about what they're doing? Sharing earlier, there's a lot of people and a lot of people I know that are folded already, but against their conscience. And there will have gotten this shot. And I think Disney is counted on that. I know they've hired people and they got them in the wings just waiting to step in. I think prior when this fight started, and just kind of doing some numbers, and because they had offered to pay, and at the time when I had inside information, I think the number was as high as 40% of employees had not reported their vaccination status, and they were paying getting paid like 300 100 bucks to do it. And they weren't reporting. But let's say that was 25%. For people that just didn't want to report it. And then you add to that people that don't want boosters you add to that people that are vaccinated that are standing for freedom, I think the number is somewhere around 40%. We seeing it in the police departments and fire departments as high as 40% 45%. City of Anaheim, the police department we heard from their police union, directly yesterday was 80% of their police officers. So I think 80% don't want to take that don't want to take it. So the numbers are way higher than anybody expects, but they've done such a good job of isolating us keeping people scared to talk out by doing that. And, and I had an interesting conversation about Nicki Minaj, the rapper who's who just asked him what everybody attacked her. And somebody suggested like that was just show I said, What do you mean? Well, by get her getting attacked, and people seeing that attack, you know, that keeps them in check. It keeps people in check. And when I talk to people, they're just scared I had a family reach out to me that wanted me to help them and they were willing to do an interview and we set up a press conference last week and they were no shows. And when I called them I said we need you you know we need we have the whole Haitian community is a large one and they feel betrayed by their pastors in their churches, they feel betrayed by Disney and by the unions. And yet nobody shown just you know, not not the representation that they that that people and when one of the people who was was the late liaison, he talked to me after and I could hear this fear in his voice that I didn't hear and there's just this irrational fear spirit of fear that's taking over people because they realize they can lose everything. Right and and And I understand when you got family, you got kids. But this is the time where faith is everything. And like about these people coming across the border, they're willing to risk everything to come to this country, everything, their lives everything, America, people like us, we've got too much to lose to fight. And that's the problem. We don't, we've lost, we're in a culture, we've raised a bunch of people in the last 50 years, that aren't willing to lose it all. And that's unfortunate. We're the generation of the wars and all that, you know, there's a segment of our military that still is willing to give it all. But in general, we're, you know, I can't say anything great right now, because it just upsets me that heard a good sermon one time ellerslie I think his name, and it was called chocolate soldiers. We've raised a bunch of chocolate soldiers, it's part it's partly my fault for, you know, I've got good kids and stuff. But, you know, we're not massive activists are standing strong, and all that we're doing, we're doing what we can. And as Christians, I think they depend, you know, we want it to be good people, we didn't round and people that don't, we don't want to offend anybody. We don't want to offend anybody. And we get along, you know, we want to live a quiet life, raise our kids, you know, go to work, be an example, be a light in the world about love. We got to love everybody. But we forgot to be salt. We forgot to be salt. And the other side has totally taken advantage of that. And talking about the military. They're purging the military of anybody who disagrees with them right now. And they're getting everybody else to surrender. And why do you think that is? Well, what happens when all the good people are gone, all the conscious objectors and all the Christians, all the people that will not stand for injustice, when they're gone out of the military, and the police departments and out of school systems, and they're making prime, right, they're defunding the police crime is rampant across the country, that numbers came out yesterday in the city, and the police are retiring or committing suicide in many of these places. When it gets so bad. It's not that these people at the top are against policing. They just want the policing the type they want. So as soon as you get rid of, of all the policing enough people, and people are clamoring and needing protection, you send in the military, I mean, I'm I at this point, I don't care anymore speaking the truth. And that's just the obvious, that's just the obvious plan. I mean, it's it's not hate to say it, it's Nazi Germany, that's a cliche, but um, you know, these are, this is how they do it, and they never started full blown. They just kind of implemented things piece by piece. And it seems to be quite a strategy. And, and supported by media, and supported by people that no longer can critically think, just falling in line and perpetuating this. And God help them they better wake up because they're not going to like the results of it. Right? I think learning I'm taking class through Patriot, patriot university, I think it is with Rick green in his group, through our friends of our church, we're, we're taking a constitutional class. And so we're learning about our history, we're understanding our Constitution. And one thing I was gonna say is that the Christians, if you're listening to this, you need to start understanding our history. Go back and understand what our takes, what, 1520 minutes to read the Constitution. Go back, read that. There's a video on YouTube out with William fetter. And he does an excellent job. It's a three part series on understanding the culture and he liked vodi Bachman, he goes through this whole history of socialism, communism, and how all this has a plan. I mean, it's pretty much written now. I mean, it we're, we are step by step in line with everything that happened in Nazi Germany, and everything that happened with the Bolsheviks and all that stuff. Somebody said, we were at six of 10. Yes, justify extermination. And he goes through them, and I don't remember what they were, but we're there and i and i read them and looked at him and thought about it, and he was absolutely right. And as Christians, we need to be awake to that and we need to bring we need to help others understand what God purpose is and what God's plan is for the Christians who really are convicted about loving people. How much love as we talked about earlier, how much love is it that we allow innocent people conscience to be stepped on to children to be taught things that they should not even be aware of for many years? How loving is it and it's in people are being killed by the suppression of early treatments and and the truth behind that? There's no there's nothing loving in any of this that's going on and and stop hiding behind that if you're hiding behind that. You're being you're lukewarm, and you're worse than lukewarm, you're perpetuating the problem. And, and I wish you just I hate to say this, I wish you leave the church. Leave the church because you're you the truth, you don't want the truth. And God has already warned us if we don't love the truth, we're going to believe a lie is going to send a strong delusion. It will spit us out of his mouth tomorrow. And I he was strong. So I guess I can be strong, right? Yeah, yeah, you know, it, this is the time, this is the time and you know what we're supposed to be part of a body. And if you're not stepping into place now to help us fight, we're missing an arm, we're missing an eye, we're missing. We're missing some vital parts to do this. If we don't stand up now, at this juncture, what's going to happen? 10 years from now, when our grandkids are facing atrocities that we just your I don't think we get 10 years? Yeah, I don't think we get 10 years. The UK just back down. But they'll bring it back. They wanted to do the vaccine passports by China, created by China run by China. That doesn't make any sense, right? But they're doing that we in Australia, you got to the government calls you you've got to have your phone on you. You better show your face and your geolocation is going to say you're where you're supposed to be. Oh my gosh, I mean, this is not this is not we're not being alarmist, this has happened in China, you say something that you disagree with the government, maybe you don't get to leave your town, maybe you don't get leave your house, you get a social credit score. They're conditioning people everywhere, and they would love to do it to us. Yeah, this is the you know, this is the land of the free home of the brave, but we are now right we got to be brief. Now let me ask you are you with with you saying that? So we have Disney we have other companies saying you have to take the jam? Are you expecting to get released fard let go because of your stance right now. I back up against the Red Sea, God says go forward. Doesn't matter doesn't I tell my wife every day one day at a time, I will not be falling I'm resolved not to file any exemptions because I don't feel I it's it's justified. Or the efficacy under the data of these these jabs doesn't make any sense. And I don't want to attribute any credence to what they're doing. So they're gonna have to fire me. And I already know of class action lawsuits that are all being put into place right now around the country. And they're everybody's going to get it at all angles. I don't think they care about losing business or losing money or not having enough people because I think they want to destroy and rebuild. And it doesn't it doesn't, it doesn't seem like they care. We think, well, they're going to suffer. There's not enough people. It doesn't seem like they got to know that. I don't think they care. I don't think you've got a plan in place, probably. Right? They just want to get it done. Why do you think the borders open? Any rash, you know, I mean, the borders open to bring more people in to take the jobs of people that have worked for 2030 years that have stood strong. Now we've got more people that will come in and fill those spots on the ground, and straining resources and bringing violent people that you don't know, because good people and bad people are coming through there. And unlike Trump, I you know, he said he talked about skilled immigration. And, and I agree with that, to a certain extent, I also believe in compassionate immigration from those, you know, my family was not skilled. And thank God, they came here from Cuba and my wife's family from Vietnam. And I love our country for it. But you cannot have open borders, just like you can't take the hinge the doors off the hinges at your home. Exactly. expect that everybody that walks past your house is going to be good, you take the hinges off your door, sure enough, somebody is going to walk by and think I'm walking in there and seeing what I could pull out of there. And you know, or cause you harm. And I think that's what we're getting at the southern border. So any rational person wouldn't let any of this happen. It's just if you can't see it by now. I don't know what you need. That's all so so what are you what are you into at this point with? With the website and with your fight is with Disney? I mean, where's this going for you? We are you know, it's a dual mission. It started just as a simple taken a stand. The mission is the simple mission is just to get I tell everybody I'm not fighting against Disney. I'm fighting against the narrative that holds up a mandate that makes no sense. So I wrote the op ed on the goofy vaccine comm website. And it's also turned into encouraging people around the country. People are asking me how do you organize how, how can we take a stand, there's So many of us that are scared out there and other people that need support, I'm up, my wife is here in the studio with me. And she'll tell you I'm up late into the hours just trying to respond personally to these emails, because people need encouragement right now. And I encourage other people encouraged. So I'm, I'm hoping to be an example. And I can't say that I'm the only one I would I decided to personally take a stand. And when you do that, you'll be surprised that people that come by your side, and some people will fall away fast, but other people will stick to you. And I'm just trying to encourage people to do the same thing for our country for all our jobs for you know, because it's not going to stop with just your job. It's it, you know, France, they don't in some, some grocery stores, and I'll let you in with a vaccine. There was a group of us last night from CCDF in Florida. In Miami, I heard that went in without a mask, and they were arrested at a some kind of mirror meeting doesn't stop there. And it's so irrational. So it doesn't mean it's going to get better just because you got the vaccine there, they're going to continue, people, people without God, always think they are God. And they always find their self righteousness based on what they agree with. So if they agree with the vaccine mandate, they ultimately baptize that and bless that as what needs to be done for everybody because I am righteous, I know better. And who are you? And when I was attacked, I think I shared with you on national radio by brian ross, one of his one of his attacks, where Who are you to know better than the experts? And I'm thinking, Oh, my gosh, Bob so many times, you know, and I said which experts you know, and that's those are the the arguments and he had such righteous indignation when he punched me. So you imagine the people at the very top that have been very successful and pull the levers of the world and economics and everything. They don't believe in God, many of these people, whether they are openly or not, are satanic in nature, because they reject Christ. They think their God and and we're allowing them but to get away with it and our battle again, our battle is we are I think it's in First Corinthians, we our job is to bring down every stronghold that that exalts itself over Christ, that's a command that sounds like from Paul, that's our job is to bring it down and we're not wrestling against flesh and blood. I am not advocating any physical physical things in these battles but we know God's void never comes back void. So we need to stand up we need to speak up and let God handle the rest. And so so with that said, that's the fight and we're also doing the rally Sunday here in Orlando if you go to the website you'll see where it's at. We will be doing it's Sunday at 3pm well we're get we're getting together with the firefighters first responders are frontline workers, the nurses and in Anaheim. We have a small group of people out there that are wanting or organizing and wanting to people to come out and they are going to be at 10am 1500 South harbor Boulevard which is right by Disneyland I'm not sure where but my counterparts in organizing over there so that's a good area to be in and they'll be there at 10am but if you go to the website of goofy vaccine calm you'll see that and we're just asking people people that support Disney people that are against the vaccine citizens of all types. Everybody come organize, come get together with us Let's stand up together and send the message that we don't agree with these mandates. So is this it right here? That's actually some fight for freedom. Sunday September 26 in Orlando, Florida there's on the website 3pm and then we got Sunday the 26th again in California 10am and coast to coast to get together and show their support for freedom of choice and stand against the mandates and awesome Nick I guess that's a good place to wrap up I know we could probably go all day talking and and I've enjoyed it I really enjoyed it especially talking from from a faith perspective because you know all this is rooted in spiritual, spiritual things. It's a spiritual battle it may be manifested in the flesh but it's a spiritual battle right and and as I heard one of the things Moti Bachmann said is that I can only speak about himself I can only stand on this portion of the wall and and and defend this portion of the wall you're defending a portion of the wall defending a portion of wall so we're, we just encourage all the Christians to to go to your secret place. Listen to what God is telling you where to defend but we have to defend the wall. Actually the you know, it's his I've heard it said he, there's evil at the gate. And I'm unfortunately I believe the gates been opened and there's no defense and we have to take a place ever. Just like in Am I building the wall, they built it with one hand on a trial and the other hand with the sword. So we have to be in a position, a frame of mind, a, a position of war, because this is the time for war, we're in a war at the highest levels of spiritual demonic forces upon this country. And I think it's imperative everybody. Everybody takes some part of the wall and stand on it, and I appreciate what you're doing. God bless you for your standing strong, I pray that your job will will be intact, you will not lose your job through this. But if it if you do, there's bigger and better things, I'm sure. And so thank you again, Nick, for such a strong stance. And we hope that you know, there's victory in this for sure, because we know Christ. Yeah. Thank you, Gary. Thanks for having me on. And thanks for doing your part as well on the wall. And I look forward to giving you some good news soon, Lord willing.  

Auf der Elbe zwischen der Sächsischen Schweiz und Meissen sorgt der Musiker Driftwood Holly momentan für viele Stauner. Er ist auf dem Fluss unterwegs mit einem kleinen Hausboot, das an Huckleberry Finn erinnert. Holly heisst eigentlich Holger, stammt aus dem aus dem erzgebirgischen Oberwiesenthal, ist vor über 20 Jahren nach Kanada ins Yukongebiet ausgewandert und macht regelmäßig mit dem Bassisten der Band Silly, Jäckie Recnizek. Die Coronazwangspause hat Holly auf die Idee gebracht, mit dem Hausboot die Elbe stromabwärts zu fahren, überall, wo es passt, vor Anker zu gehen und Konzerte zu geben, von der sächsischen Schweiz bis hin nach Hamburg, wenn sich die Pläne unterwegs auf dem Fluss nicht nochmal ändern. Mit der Hausbootkabine, die nur eine Fläche von 2x 3 Metern hat, kommt der Musik bestens zurecht…. “Ach, da kannst Du locker mal 3 Gäste haben. Das ist wunderbar. Das reicht mir bei weitem aus. Ich mag die kleinen Systeme. Ich hatte auch schon große Systeme. Ich habe schon in richtig großen Systemen gewohnt. Da war mein Bad so groß wie jetzt mein Haus. Und das hat trotzdem nicht fürt mehr Entspannung gesorgt. Ist klar, wenn Du jetzt permanent irgendwo wohnst, dann siehts das schon wieder anders aus. Aber ich bin ja eh ein bissel nomadisch veranlagt und da ist das Boot ganz schön groß. Ich meine, ich habe mein Fahrrad mit an Bord, ich kann rundrum laufen , ich hab zwei Riesenliegestühle, das ist schon sehr, sehr spacy, würde ich sagen.” Was ein Konzert auf festem Boden von dem auf einem kleinen Hausboot auf der Elbe unterscheidet, wie er erst nach der Wende auf den Geschmack in Sachen Ostrock gekommen ist, das erzählt Driftwood Holly im aktuellen Podcast “Axel trifft….”.

1002-1018 AD Once king Henry II has established his rule, he has to face up to a new and increasingly powerful rival. Duke (later King) Boleslav the Brave of Poland has created a large and coherent polity to the east of Germany. When he takes over the counties of Meissen and Lausitz and even Bohemia, war becomes inevitable. Hampered by his own barons being tied to Boleslav by political interest and family ties, Henry II shocks the world by getting into an alliance with the pagan Slavs. In the meantime the Italian nobles have elected one of their own, Arduin of Ivrea to be king, defying Henry's rule. Henry fights his way to Pavia but after the coronation the locals rebel leading to a massacre and the burning down of the capital of the Lombards.

As Otto III's dead body is brought home by his friends, all his dreams and policies collapse behind him. The Emperor had died aged 22 without an heir and he had no brothers or even uncles left. So who should be king? Will it be Hermann of Swabia, from the eternally loyal Konradiner family, Otto of Worms, the dead emperor's closest relative, Count Ekkehard of Meissen, the mighty warrior, Count Ezzo, the nouveau riche husband of Otto III's sister, or Henry of Bavaria, son of a rebel, grandson of a rebel but great-grandson of king Henry the Fowler and therefore the male heir of the dynasty. How do you become emperor?

August de Sterke, keurvorst in Dresden, wilde voor zijn 18de-eeuwse paleis een dierentuin van porselein. Vogels, apen en andere zoogdieren, allen levensgroot én levensecht. Een wonderlijke opdracht, omdat in Europa nog niet was ontdekt hoe porselein wordt gemaakt. In Dresden lukte dat wel en het resultaat van die porseleinen dierentuin is deels aanwezig in het Rijksmuseum. Jörgen Raymann spreekt over een van deze dieren, een aap met snuifdoos, met Hoofd Toegepaste Kunst Femke Diercks. Wil je weten hoe het werk eruitziet?

publisher: Princeton University Press, 30 Jun 2020 "This is a history of porcelain as a business and consumer product, from the eighteenth century to the present day. Many books have been written on Chinese porcelain as an exotic import from Asia, but this book tells the history of the Central European reinvention and mass production of the material. Porcelain was first invented in medieval China, but the evolution of what its first producers called "white gold" was set in motion by Saxon king Augustus the Strong. Augustus obsessed over owning a personal alchemist, Johann Bèottger, whom he imprisoned in his castle, first to make gold, and when that failed, to make porcelain. Trained in chemistry by an apothecary, Bèottger took advantage of the king's obsession with porcelain and eventually produced the first European ceramic vessels whose delicacy and strength resembled those of Asian imports. Augustus funded the creation of a Saxon royal manufactory, which became the famous Meissen factory, and which to this day stands for the highest quality in porcelain. By the time of Bèottger's death in 1719, Meissen porcelain had become famous throughout Europe and the world, its wares in high demand by other monarchs and aristocratic consumers. Soon after the porcelain maker's death, his secret recipe was stolen, and dozens of Central European princes opened their own manufactories. Here, author Suzanne L. Marchand shows how the story of European porcelain is an intertwined history of the mercantile state policy that built these factories, the luxury trades that sustained them, the debates about what counted as "art," and the changes in consumer and material culture driving the business. Throughout the eighteenth century, porcelain production was an industry of competitive, mercantile production under royal ownership. By 1850, however, after only a few state-backed firms survived the financial crises of 1815-1830, the Central European porcelain industry had become the domain of mass producers and trademark forgers. Marchand then traces the story of Central European porcelain into the twentieth century, exploring the new challenges of cartelization, the rise of Japanese and Czech competition, and the impact of the two world wars, following several porcelain firms through the Nazi era and the Russian seizures of companies in the German East. At each point, Marchand uses the history of porcelain to link the businesses, and the states that helped sustain them, to the broader history of culture and consumption"-- --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/pbliving/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/pbliving/support

Peter Marigold is a London-based product designer who originally studied sculpture at Central St Martins before changing tack and enrolling at the Royal College of Art in 2004. Since then he has created gallery pieces for the likes of Libby Sellers and, more recently, Sarah Myerscough, had furniture and shelving manufactured by SCP and others, as well as creating a porcelain collection for Meissen. Best known for his use of wood, in 2015 he launched a new product FORMcard, essentially a small piece of bio-plastic which can be heated and then moulded, allowing users to mend their own products. His work has been exhibited at New York’s MoMA, Design Miami, Design Museum Holon, the V&A, and the Design Museum in London. He has also created commissions for the likes of Paul Smith, Bloomberg and The Museum of Childhood. And if that wasn’t enough, he teaches design at London Metropolitan University. In this episode we talk about: his issues with passive consumption and sustainability; his collecting habit; why he has an odd relationship with wood; his problem with art; and the joy of keeping a pet giant snail. Perhaps most importantly, we discuss FORMcard, and how it can be used to ‘make, fix and modify the world around us’. Support the show (https://www.patreon.com/materialmatters)

“La fabrique de l'extravagance” Porcelaines de Meissen et de Chantillyau Domaine de Chantilly – Grands Appartementsdu 5 septembre 2020 au 3 janvier 2021Extrait du communiqué de presse :Commissariat :Mathieu Deldicque, conservateur du patrimoine au musée CondéLe XVIIIe siècle fut celui de la course à la porcelaine, considérée comme un « or blanc ». Deux princes, Auguste le Fort, électeur de Saxe et roi de Pologne, et Louis-Henri de Bourbon, prince de Condé, premier ministre du roi Louis XV, atteints de la même « maladie de la porcelaine » et amateurs de céramiques importées à grand prix depuis l'Extrême-Orient, souhaitèrent tour à tour créer leur propre manufacture pour rivaliser avec les productions asiatiques et, ce faisant, asseoir leur prestige tout en assouvissant leur passion. C'est cette histoire comparée et inédite de deux des plus importantes fabriques de porcelaine de la première moitié du XVIIIe siècle, celles de Meissen et de Chantilly, qui sera explorée au Domaine de Chantilly, du 5 septembre 2020 au 3 janvier 2021.Pour la première fois, une exposition d'ampleur se propose d'éclairer le dialogue entre des productions qui ont marqué les arts décoratifs du Siècle des Lumières. Organisée au sein des prestigieux Grands Appartements du château, datant eux-mêmes du XVIIIe siècle, et servie par une scénographie spectaculaire de Peter Marino, elle permet d'admirer des pièces d'une virtuosité technique rarement atteinte et d'une somptuosité assortie à la légèreté du siècle de l'art de vivre.Meissen et Chantilly, un dialogue inédit au sommetLa rareté, l'exotisme de leurs formes et de leurs décors, la translucidité et la pureté de leur blancheur rangeaient les porcelaines parmi les objets les plus recherchés des amateurs de la première moitié du XVIIIe siècle. Grâce aux importations de porcelaines chinoises puis japonaises effectuées majoritairement par la Compagnie hollandaise des Indes orientales, les productions asiatiques emplissaient les boutiques des marchands merciers et les cabinets des collectionneurs.C'était le cas à Dresde et à Chantilly, chez nos deux princes collectionneurs. L'exposition donnera à voir parmi les plus beaux exemplaires de porcelaines asiatiques amassés par Auguste le Fort, encore conservés à Dresde. De même, pour la première fois, les plus belles porcelaines chinoises et japonaises présentes à Chantilly jusqu'à la Révolution française vont revenir au château, dans les lieux mêmes où le prince les disposait avec goût !Nos deux princes collectionneurs ne s'arrêtèrent pas là et voulurent à leur tour créer leur propre fabrique. Meissen, en Saxe, fut ainsi la première manufacture à produire de la porcelaine à pâte dure en dehors de la Chine et du Japon, dès 1710. Lorsque la manufacture de porcelaine tendre de Chantilly fut créée en 1730, sous le patronage du prince de Condé, c'était d'ailleurs pour entrer en compétition avec la grande fabrique à succès de l'époque, celle de Meissen.L'esthétique développée par Meissen et Chantilly était résolument tournée vers l'Extrême-Orient : ces manufactures jouèrent un rôle de premier plan en faveur du développement de la chinoiserie dans le domaine des arts décoratifs. La porcelaine, matière exotique par excellence, en était l'un des principaux vecteurs. À Chantilly comme à Meissen, c'était notamment aux productions japonaises de style dit Kakiemon qu'il fallait faire référence, avec des motifs japonisants stylisés, disposés sans symétrie ni perspective, mettant en valeur la blancheur de la porcelaine.L'exposition s'attardera sur ces échanges incessants avec les modèles asiatiques, sur le dialogue entre les productions de Chantilly et de Meissen, mais aussi sur la créativité de ces dernières, qui s'appuyait également sur des recueils de modèles. Des assemblées de riantes pagodes, ces statuettes d'inspiration bouddhique bedonnantes et hautement exotiques, inviteront le visiteur – à l'instar de l'amateur du XVIIIe siècle – à une Chine de fantaisie. Les animaux n'étaient pas en reste : les singes de porcelaine regagneront leur singerie, tandis qu'une ménagerie et d'extraordinaires volières de porcelaine vont susciter la surprise et l'émerveillement des visiteurs.Ce sera un véritable événement que de voir présentés à Chantilly parmi les objets les plus spectaculaires du siècle, les oiseaux en porcelaine de Meissen grandeur nature créés par les Johann Joachim Kändler, provenant de la galerie des animaux d'Auguste le Fort au Palais japonais de Dresde, et exceptionnellement prêtés par les Staatliche Kunstsammlungen de Dresde et le musée national de Céramique de Sèvres.L'histoire de la porcelaine est aussi celle du commerce du luxe. Bien des marchands merciers parisiens vendaient à la fois les productions de Chantilly et de Meissen, les acclimatant au goût des amateurs par le biais de montures en bronze doré. On combinait porcelaines de Chantilly ou de Meissen avec de riches montures en bronze doré et des fleurs en pâte tendre, pour former pendules, cartels, écritoires, flambeaux, fontaines, etc. D'éminents collectionneurs particuliers ont prêté leurs plus belles pièces montées pour permettre de se plonger dans un univers de luxe et de raffinement, où le goût de l'objet d'art fut porté à son sommet.Une scénographie spectaculaireLe château de Chantilly conserve le décor unique en France des appartements du prince de Condé qui créa la manufacture de Chantilly. C'est dans ces pièces rocaille, aux boiseries blanches et or, que seront exposées les porcelaines, sur un mobilier d'époque de premier ordre, comme au temps des princes. Le visiteur sera ainsi invité à une expérience de visite immersive, pour découvrir, voire apprendre à apprécier, des pièces qui prennent tout leur sens dans leur environnement de présentation originel.Le grand architecte new-yorkais Peter Marino a mis toute sa créativité au service de cette ambition en imaginant une scénographie extravagante, inspirée par les dispositifs de présentation d'époque.Grâce aux prêts de musées nationaux et internationaux, et d'un grand nombre de pièces exceptionnelles provenant de collections privées, l'exposition, par ailleurs l'une des seules jamais consacrées en France à l'extraordinaire production de la manufacture allemande de Meissen, permettra de redécouvrir des trésors d'art et de technique, et de s'immerger dans un monde aussi extravagant que raffiné.Catalogue aux éditions Monelle HayotCatalogue de l'exposition sous la direction de Mathieu Deldicque, conservateur du patrimoine au musée Condé, Domaine de Chantilly Voir Acast.com/privacy pour les informations sur la vie privée et l'opt-out.

ART SEEN - Meissen Porcelain at the Ariana by WRS

“I, Khan, the emissary of the heavenly king, to whom he gave power over the earth to lift up those who subject themselves to me and lay low those who resist, am amazed at you, king of Hungary – that when I will have sent you envoys thirty times, you do not send any of them back to me, and send me neither your messengers nor letters. I know that you are a wealthy and powerful king, that you have many soldiers under you, and alone you rule a great kingdom. And, therefore, it is difficult for you to submit yourself to me voluntarily. However, it would be better and more beneficial if you were to voluntarily submit to me! I have understood, in addition, that you are keeping the Cumans, my slaves, under your protection, for which reason I command you not to keep them with you any longer, and do not have me as your enemy because of them! It is easier for them to escape than you because they, lacking houses and migrating about with tents, might perhaps get away. But you, living in houses, having castles and cities – how will you escape my hands?”   So reads the famous ultimatum sent by Batu, grandson of Chinggis Khan, to Bela IV, King of Hungary. Our previous two episodes have covered the rapid Mongol campaign across the western steppe from 1236-1240, conquering the Volga Bulghars, the Alans, the Cuman-Qipchaqs and the Rus’ principalities. Having just taken Kiev in December 1240, Batu and mighty Subutai cast their eyes to Eastern Europe: Poland, the Hungarian Kingdom and beyond. I’m your host David, and this is Kings and Generals: Ages of Conquests.   The man standing between Europe and the Mongols was Bela IV, King of Hungary, a great power of Europe. The Magyars, as the Hungarians call themselves, came to Europe as nomadic horse archers like the Mongols, conquering the Pannonian Basin -Hungary- in the 8th century and raiding western Europe. At Lechfeld in 955 they were defeated by the Holy Roman Emperor Otto I and some fifty odd years later these pagans officially adopted Christianity with the baptism of Stephen I, first King of Hungary, on Christmas Day 1,000. In the following centuries they abandoned the old ways, but with a still formidable military the Hungarian Kingdom emerged as the lead power between the Holy Roman Empire in Germany and the Rus’ principalities to the east. Controlling not just modern Hungary but large swathes of Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, Croatia and Bosnia, the Hungarian monarch controlled a diverse realm, the crossroads between Catholic and Orthodox Christendom.   Bela IV made few friends after his coronation in 1235. Born in 1206, the same year Chinggis Khan declared his Empire in distant Mongolia, Bela had a rocky relationship with his father King Andrew, whose decentralization of the kingdom through rich land rewards to the nobility frustrated Bela. Their tension progressed, Bela essentially making himself an autonomous monarch in Hungary’s Croatian territory. With Bela’s marriage to a Byzantine princess, Andrew urged the Pope to annul the union and forced Bela from the Kingdom. Ultimately he let his son return, making him ruler of Transylvania in the 1220s, where Bela came into regular contact with the Cumans. Cuman presence increased with the eastern upheavals from Mongol expansion, Cuman Khans fleeing to Hungary for asylum and baptism. Bela was drawn to the Cumans as a pillar of support against his father, while also boosting his reputation as a good Christian ruler by encouraging missionary work among them, styling himself King of the Cumans. Bela’s first years as King after 1235 saw the reclamation of crown lands and reduction in privileges of the nobility while expanding the Kingdom. Border territories were taken from Bulgaria and in 1238 Bela’s brother Coloman extended their rule in Bosnia by force. Bela’s efforts made him unpopular among the aristocracy of the kingdom, who felt their rights trampled upon.When a large body of Cumans under Khan Kotjen sought refuge in Hungary in 1239, Bela was only too happy to welcome them. 40,000 skilled mounted archers loyal directly to Bela provided him a massive bodyguard against a possible uprising from the barons of the kingdom, and Bela heaped rewards and rights to them.   Bela was not unaware of the Mongols’ western expansion. One contemporary author, Thomas of Spalato, records that the Hungarians had heard so many rumours of impending Mongol invasions that when news came of their arrival in the 1240s, it was treated as a joke. Bela certainly had up to date information from refugees like Kotjen Khan and Mikhail Vsevolodovich (Vsye-vo-lod-o-vich), Prince of Chernigov, and the Domincian Friar Julian returned with letters from Batu demanding Bela’s submission, preceding a number of Mongol envoys.  Contrary to popular depictions and contemporary accusations, Bela was not a monarch sitting idly on his hands; he had foreknowledge and some measures were enacted. Passes through the Carpathian mountains, the shield dividing the Hungarian plain from the Eurasian steppe, were blocked with wooden barriers and fallen trees, and some fortresses in Transylvania were refortified. The crux of his defense relied on the Cumans; their horse archery and experience in steppe tactics were a mighty aid to the already formidable Hungarian army. Bela was the only monarch in Europe preparing for their arrival. Of course, nothing went to plan. Tensions flared between the Cumans and the kingdom’s sedentary population. The sources speak of anger at Cumans herds allowed to roam through peasants’ fields, distrust at the close proximity of pagans, all encouraged by Hungarian lords eager to undermine Bela’s powerbase, to dire consequence.   On the fall of Kiev on the 6th of December, 1241, Batu and Subutai moved their army west and broke off into columns. The total force for the invasion of Europe is difficult to gauge, estimates of around 50-60,000 troops being common. Intelligence was carefully collected, strengths assessed. Batu was fearful of being outflanked by the enemy, and it was deemed necessary to send a portion of the army into Poland, at that time divided into five duchies- Bela IV’s sister was married to a lead Polish Duke. Despite some modern comments, the whole campaign was no mere raid. Structurally it differed little from the previous years of campaigning and the Mongol belief in world hegemony was well established. At the borders of Hungary and Poland at the start of 1241, Batu anticipated a conquest of both, and likely expected to push into Germany as well.   The army split into two main theaters. One group under Orda and Baidar was to strike Poland, preventing the Polish duchies from aiding the Hungarians. The main army was to conquer Hungary, certainly intending to use its grassland as a forward base for further operations. Batu and Subutai lead the main army, sending three smaller detachments to penetrate various passes along Hungary’s Carparthian frontier, allowing them to surround the enemy.  We’ll deal first with the Polish invasion.    In January 1241 the first Mongol scouts entered Polish territory, followed by Orda’s main force in February, generally estimated around 10-20,000 men. Orda, Batu’s older brother, moved quickly in two main divisions under himself and Chagatai’s son Baidar. The attack on Poland was swift and ferocious: by the 13th of February, Sandomierz, capital of a Polish duchy, was taken. An engagement at Tursko saw the Polish knights get the better in the initial clash, only to be destroyed when the Mongols regrouped and surprised them. From Sandomierz they followed the Vistula River, sending contingents north to harass, pillage and burn, causing confusion as to their movements and hampering the already slow Polish response. On the 18th of March, the army of Boleslaw V, ‘the Chaste,’ Duke of Sandomierz, was destroyed at Chmielnik (Hhe-myel-nik); shortly afterwards, the Mongols sacked the Polish capital, Krakow. Boleslaw V fled to the kingdom of his brother-in-law, Bela IV.   The Polish High Duke at that time was not in Krakow, but in his home duchy of Silesia. Henry II the Pious was the lead member of the fragmented Piast dynasty, duke of Silesia and High Duke of Poland since 1238. His preparations were slow and by the time he readied his army, the Mongols were in Silesia, western Poland.  Henry was supposed to wait for aid from his brother-in-law, King Vaclav I of Bohemia, but found the Mongols approaching too quickly, following the Oder River to the Silesian capital of Wroclaw [Breslau]. On the 9th of April, 1241, Henry’s army met the Mongols under Orda and Baidar at Legnica, better known as Liegnitz or Wahlstatt [German, ‘vahlstaht’], west of Wroclaw.    The Liegnitz battle is not recorded as well as Mohi, and a considerable amount of details were added by later authors. Illustrative of this is the notion that a contingent of Teutonic Knights under their Grand Master Poppo von Osterna were present, and that Qadan or Qaidu led Mongol contingents there. In reality, Poppo von Osterna was not Hochmeister until 1253 and the Teutonic Order provided no troops for the battle- though the Templars provided 500 peasants from their landed estates. Qadan, a son of Ogedai, was not present, as he led an army into Transylvania, and Qaidu, the grandson of Ogedai famed for his conflict with Kublai Khan, was certainly absent, as he was only about 10 years old!   Liegnitz is often presented as the Mongols easily overwhelming the Polish and German forces of Henry II, but the medieval chronicles demonstrate that the Europeans made a good show of themselves. A Polish Fransciscan reported that another Polish friar, Benedict, was told by the Mongols that they were on the point of retreat when Polish resistance collapsed. The 15th century Polish writer Jan Dlugosz describes the Poles holding their own against the Mongols in the first half of the battle. But the Mongols had a trick: a standard bearer waved his banner violently and sent forth a smokescreen, so foul the Poles lost order. Stephen Haw postulates that this poisonous smoke was gunpowder, or perhaps firelances. For the Poles who had never encountered such devices, it was overwhelming. Polish order collapsed and they were overrun. Nine sacks of ears were said to have been filled, and Duke Henry was decapitated, his severed head paraded on a lance before neighbouring cities. The suburbs of his capital at Wroclaw were destroyed, though the citadel held out.   Mongol losses may have been high, as they were unwilling to meet King Vaclav of Bohemia’s army. Small parties were briefly sent into eastern Germany where the town of Meissen, just west of Dresden, suffered an attack, but Orda and Baidar moved south to link up with Batu, cutting through the Bohemian Kingdom, modern Czechia. Stiff local resistance in Bohemia proper convinced Orda to pass through Bohemian controlled Moravia. Fortified points were bypassed for speed, but villages in the countryside suffered. Through the Vlara Pass they entered the Hungarian Kingdom on its northwestern border in May 1241. As that takes us to Hungary, let skip back a few weeks.    After the deparuture of Orda and Baidar in February 1241, Batu and Subutai took the rest of the army to Hungary, dividing their forces to overwhelm their foe at multiple points. On March 12th, Batu and Subutai crossed through the Verecke Pass, the northeastern route the Magyars themselves first took to enter Hungary. Ogedai’s son Qadan took his contingent through the Bargo Pass into northern Transylvania. One of Tolui’s sons, Bojek, took his force through the Oituz pass into central Transylvania, and the noyan Burundai diverted far south, coming up through the Tornu Rosu Pass into southern Transylvania, linking up with Bojek at Alba Iulia.    At the beginning of March King Bela IV began gathering his forces at Pest, one half of the city which forms modern Budapest. His requests to foreign rulers for aid were largely ignored. Bela had in mind an orderly countermarch against the Mongol army. But things quickly slipped from his hands. Some of the nobles held their forces back, refusing to come in the first place. The Mongols broke through the Carpathians quicker than anticipated and news came in of nobles going ahead to face them without support. Denis, the Kingdom’s Palatine, fled to Pest, having failed to repel the Mongols on their exit from the Verecke. Bishop Ugrin of Kalocas (Kalots-ash) defied Bela’s order and likewise marched ahead to engage the Mongols, and only barely escaped with his life. The Duke of Austria, the quarrelsome Frederick II, came to Bela’s call for aid, defeated a small Mongol party in a skirmish near Pest and withdrew. The Bishop of Varad fought the Mongols near Eger, where he was defeated and Eger destroyed. Reports kept coming to Bela of his forces allowing themselves to be destroyed piecemeal by the Mongols, while yet more Mongol forces kept showing up from new directions and rumours swirled of destruction in Poland.    On top of that the tensions between Cumans and Hungarians had not abated. News of Cumans among the Mongol forces led to cries that Bela’s Cuman allies were spies for Batu. Bela placed the Cuman Khan Kotjen and his family under guard in Buda, but in an assault led almost certainly by Hungarian and German nobles, Kotjen and his retinue were killed. In turn, this prompted a pogrom from Hungarians in the area against the Cumans. The remaining Cumans refused to risk their lives for ‘allies’ who treated them such, and abandoned the Hungarians, leaving a trail of destruction as they flew en masse to Bulgaria, some making their way to the Latin Empire of Constantinople. This was just a goddamn mess for Bela, but he was forced to action. At the start of April a Mongol army approached Pest and Bela marched out. The Mongols fled and for a week Bela pursued them, reaching the village of Mohi on the Sajo (shah-yo) River, finding a larger Mongol army arranged on the opposite bank, a single bridge across the only passage. It was the 10th of April, only one day after the Mongol victory at Liegnitz.   Bela had just followed Shiban, Batu’s younger brother, into ground of Batu’s choosing. Batu and Subutai commanded a force estimated around 20-30,000 men, the rest of the army still ravaging Poland and Transylvania. The village of Mohi, where the Hungarians made camp, sat near the Sajo River in the northern edge of the great Hungarian plain, flat rolling grassland ideal for cavalry, while the thick trees along the river kept much of the Mongol army hidden. When Shiban’s messengers ran ahead with news of the size of the Hungarian army, Batu was unnerved, climbing a mountain to convey with Eternal Blue Heaven for a day and night to pray for victory, urging the Muslims in his army to likewise pray.  As the Hungarian army settled into their camp at Mohi, Batu viewed them from a nearby burial mound. Seeing how the Hungarians had packed themselves tightly within a laagar, a wagon fort, Batu was not impressed, likening them to sheep trapping themselves within a pen.    Batu had hoped King Bela would try to cross the bridge, but by digging in at Mohi, Bela was forcing Batu to act. Thomas of Spalato wrote that a Rus’ prisoner escaped the Mongols and warned the Hungarians, and Bela stationed a guard at the bridge. Frustrated, Batu had to force a crossing- neutralizing his army’s mobility and playing to strengths of the Hungarian’s heavier armour. But Subutai came up with a plan. While Batu took his men over the bridge, under the cover of night Subutai would take a force downstream and build a pontoon bridge to cross and outflank the Hungarians.    It didn’t go well. The waters downstream were deep and in the darkness, progress on the pontoon bridge was slow. Too slow for Batu, who in his impatience or belief Subutai was on schedule, ordered an assault, sent a close comrade in a heavily armoured elite unit to push the Hungarians off the bridge. The Hungarians held firm, crossbowmen proving deadly. Bela’s brother Coloman, the Bishop Ugrin and the Master of the Knights Templar in Hungary led the counterattack and repulsed the Mongols. Coloman was said to have personally thrown the Mongol commander off the bridge. The Mongols were forced back, and the Hungarians returned to their camp jubilant. Both European and Chinese sources written from Mongol documents indicate Mongol losses were heavy- as an aside, Mohi is the first battle on European soil described in any detail in a Chinese source. This source, the Yuan Shih, indicates the princes among Batu’s forces were greatly perturbed by the losses, and desired to withdraw and replan. The Polish friar C. de Bridia wrote that the Mongol vanguard actually broke on the bridge and fled. Batu was furious at Subutai’s failure to cross the river, though Subutai was not to be swayed. In response to voices urging retreat, Subutai told them “If my lord wishes to retreat, then retreat by yourself. Until I reach the Magyar city on the Danube River, I will never return!”   The Hungarians left a light guard on the bridge while the distant Hungarian camp slept soundly. Only a few hours after the initial clash, early on April 11th before dawn, the Hungarian bridge guard was rocked by the sudden crashing of stones descending on them from the darkness. The Mongols had set up their Chinese catapults and were ‘shelling’ the enemy position. Demoralized with losses mounting, when the Mongols charged they broke through the defenders. Survivors ran back to the camp, shouting alarm, but the Hungarians were slow to rise, not having anticipated an attack so soon. Subutai’s forces crossed his pontoon bridge, and by 6 A.M. the Hungarian camp was surrounded.   Though Bela’s decision to circle the camp with a wall of wagons offered some protection, the space was too small for the large army. Panic set in as thousands of men woke to cries of anguish and Mongol arrows raining among them, while the Mongols tried to set the wagons on fire. In the densely packed camp men tripped over tents and tent ropes, crushing each other in the fray. Confusion now reigned, and Bela’s fortifications trapped his men. Prince Coloman, the Bishop Ugrin and the Templars rode out to force back the Mongols but were unable to rally more men to join them. Coloman and Ugrin were seriously wounded while the Templars, despite brave efforts, were killed to a man.    A cry ran out. An opening! The Mongols had left a gap, and many ran to take it. This was a trap. Men surrounded with no escape will fight to the death; but provide an avenue for survival, and they’ll take it. In the disorganized rout no formation or protection was to be had. As if herding their sheep, the Mongols followed along both sides of the Hungarians, ensuring none veered off trail. Once the prey was exhausted, the Mongols fell upon them. Survivors were led directly into a marsh where many drowned, encumbered in their armour, weak from injuries and exhaustion. The Bishop Ugrin met his end in these waters, one among many of the nobles, bishops and archbishops of the kingdom who fell. Bela and his brother Coloman barely escaped, with Coloman seriously injured. So ended the battle of Mohi, the back of organized  Hungarian resistance broken.      Hungary, and the rest of Europe, now seemed open to the Mongols, but just under a year after the victory at Mohi, Mongol armies departed from Europe. Why was this? What did they do in that year in between? Since most popular accounts cut from the Mohi victory straight to the Mongol withdrawal, we will give you, our dear listeners, more detail on the what the Mongol presence in Europe actually looked like beyond these battles, and the consequences for Hungary. If it wasn’t Ogedai Khaan’s death in December 1241 which caused the Mongol withdrawal, then what was it?  Theories have abounded from a lack of pasture, poor weather, to a gradual conquest having been the intention. While we will return to Hungary’s fate and later interactions with the Mongols in future episodes, we will also be interviewing Dr. Stephen Pow in a forthcoming episode to discuss the theories, and his own thesis, around the Mongol withdrawal in more detail, so be sure to subscribe to the Kings and Generals podcast and to continue helping us bring you more outstanding content, please visit our patreon at www.patreon.com/kingsandgenerals.

Stephan Ajuvo (@ajuvo) vom damals(tm) Podcast, Damon Lee von der Hochschule für Musik und Sebastian Ritterbusch trafen sich zu Gulasch-Programmiernacht 2019 des CCC-Erfakreises Entropia e.V., die wieder im ZKM und der HfG Karlsruhe stattfand. Es geht um Musik, Mathematik und wie es so dazu kam, wie es ist. Damon Lee unterrichtet seit einem Jahr an der Hochschule für Musik und befasst sich mit Musik für Film, Theater, Medien und Videospielen. Im aktuellen Semester verwendet er Unity 3D um mit räumlicher Musik und Klängen virtuelle Räume im Gaming-Umfeld umzusetzen. Auch im Forschungsprojekt Terrain wird untersucht, in wie weit räumliche Klänge eine bessere Orientierungsfähigkeit im urbanen Umfeld unterstützen können. Die Idee zu dieser Folge entstand im Nachgang zur gemeinsamen Aufnahme von Stephan und Sebastian zum Thema Rechenschieber, da die Musik, wie wir sie kennen, auch ein Rechenproblem besitzt, und man dieses an jedem Klavier wiederfinden kann. Dazu spielte Musik auch eine wichtige Rolle in der Technikgeschichte, wie beispielsweise das Theremin und das Trautonium. Die Klaviatur eines herkömmlichen Klaviers erscheint mit den weißen und schwarzen Tasten alle Töne abzubilden, die unser gewöhnliches Tonsystem mit Noten abbilden kann. Der Ursprung dieses Tonsystems entstammt aus recht einfachen physikalischen und mathematischen Eigenschaften: Wird eine Saite halbiert und im Vergleich zu zuvor in Schwingung gebracht, so verdoppelt sich die Frequenz und wir hören den einen gleichartigen höheren Ton, der im Tonsystem auch gleich benannt wird, er ist nur um eine Oktave höher. Aus einem Kammerton a' mit 440Hz ändert sich in der Tonhöhe zu a'' mit 880Hz. Neben einer Verdopplung ergibt auch eine Verdreifachung der Frequenz einen für uns Menschen angenehmen Klang. Da aber der Ton über eine Oktave höher liegt, wird dazu der wieder um eine Oktave tiefere Ton, also der Ton mit 1,5-facher Frequenz betrachtet. Dieses Tonintervall wie beispielsweise von a' mit 440Hz zu e'' mit 660Hz ist eine (reine) Quinte. Entsprechend des Quintenzirkels werden so alle 12 unterschiedlichen Halbtöne des Notensystems innerhalb einer Oktave erreicht. Nur gibt es hier ein grundsätzliches mathematisches Problem: Gemäß des Fundamentalsatzes der Arithmetik hat jede Zahl eine eindeutige Primfaktorzerlegung. Es ist also nicht möglich mit mehreren Multiplikationen mit 2 zur gleichen Zahl zu gelangen, die durch Multiplikationen mit 3 erreicht wird. Somit kann der Quintenzirkel nicht geschlossen sein, sondern ist eigentlich eine niemals endende Quintenspirale und wir müssten unendlich viele unterschiedliche Töne statt nur zwölf in einer Oktave haben. In Zahlen ist . Nach 12 reinen Quinten erreichen wir also nicht genau den ursprünglichen Ton um 7 Oktaven höher, doch der Abstand ist nicht sehr groß. Es ist grundsätzlich unmöglich ein endliches Tonsystem auf der Basis von reinen Oktaven und reinen Quinten zu erzeugen, und es wurden unterschiedliche Strategien entwickelt, mit diesem Problem zurecht zu kommen. Wird das Problem ignoriert und nur die letzte Quinte verkleinert, damit sie auf den ursprünglichen Ton um sieben Oktaven höher trifft, so entsteht eine schlimm klingende Wolfsquinte. Auch im Cello-Bau können durch Wahl der Verhältnisse der Saiten und der Schwingungsfrequenzen des Korpus fast unspielbare Töne entstehen, diese werden Wolfston genannt. In der Musik wird die erforderliche Korrektur von Intervallen auch Komma-Anpassung genannt, die beispielsweise bei Streichinstrumenten automatisch, da hier die Töne nicht auf festen Frequenzen festgelegt sind, sondern durch die Fingerposition auf dem Griffbrett individuell gespielt wird. Bei Tasteninstrumenten müssen die Töne aber im Vorfeld vollständig in ihrer Frequenz festgelegt werden, und hier haben sich historisch verschiedene Stimmungen ergeben: Nach vielen Variationen, die immer durch die Wolfsquinte unspielbare Tonarten beinhalteten, wurde ab 1681 in der Barockzeit von Andreas Werkmeister die Wohltemperierte Stimmung eingeführt, in der zwar jede Tonart spielbar, aber jeweils individuelle Stimmungen und Charaktäre vermittelten. Diese Unterschiede sollen Johann Sebastian Bach bis 1742 zum Werk Das wohltemperierte Klavier inspiriert haben, wo er die jeweiligen Eigenheiten aller Tonarten musikalisch umsetzte. Die heute am häufigsten verwendete Gleichtstufige oder Gleichmäßige Stimmung verkleinert alle Quinten statt 1,5 auf den gleichen Faktor , so dass alle Töne auf die Frequenzen festgelegt sind. Damit sind alle Tonarten absolut gleichberechtigt gut spielbar, sie klingen aber auch alle gleich, und haben alle den gleichen kleinen Fehler. Da aber gerade bei Streichinstrumenten natürlich passendere Frequenzen gewählt werden, klingen gerade synthetisch erzeugte Streicher unrealistisch, wenn sie der exakten gleichstufigen Stimmung folgen. Während bei der Klavierstimmung die Töne durch die Spannung der Saiten eingestellt werden können, so werden metallische Orgelpfeifen mechanisch mit einem Stimmeisen in ihrer Frequenz angepasst. Die Porzellanorgel ist eine ungewöhnliche unter anderem in Meissen hergestellte Form, deren Pfeifen natürlich auch mit Luft und nicht durch Vibration, wie beim Schlaginstrument des Vibraphons klingen. György Ligeti, populär bekannt durch Filmmusiken in 2001: Odyssee im Weltraum und Eyes Wide Shut, hat sich in seinem späteren Schaffenswerk auch mit exotischeren Tonsystemen auf Basis reiner Intervalle mit Streichern befasst. Beispielsweise sollte Continuum, für Cembalo, mit Mitteltöniger Stimmung gespielt werden. Um in der herkömmlichen Notation auf der Basis von 12 Halbtönen auch feinere Tonschritte bezeichnen zu können, wurden die Zeichen Halb-Kreuz und Halb-b eingeführt, die auf die Viertelton-Musik führten. Hier stellt sich die interessante Frage, ob eine Erhöhung auf 24 Tönen pro Oktave bei reinen Intervallen sich der Fehler reduziert. Diese Frage beantwortet die Berechnung des entsprechenden Faktors aus Quinten mit dem nächsten Faktor aus Oktaven und die Berechnung des relativen Fehlers, der korrigiert werden muss. Bis 53 Quinten haben folgende Kombinationen einen Fehler von weniger als 7%: Quinten n 5 7 12 17 24 29 36 41 46 48 53 Oktaven m 3 4 7 10 14 17 21 24 27 28 31 Fehler5,1%6,8%1,4%3,8%2,8%2,5%4,2%1,1%6,6%5,6%0,2% Ein sehr primitives Tonsystem kann also mit 5 Tönen aufgestellt werden, aber offensichtlich treffen 12 Töne deutlich besser. 24 Töne ermöglichen zwar mehr Tonvielfalt, verbessern aber den Fehler nicht. Erst ein Tonsystem mit 29 Tönen würde bei gleichstufiger Stimmung einen exakteren Klang als bei 12 Tönen ermöglichen. Noch besser wäre dann nur noch ein Tonsystem mit 41 Tönen pro Oktave, eine extreme Verbesserung ergibt sich bei 51 Tönen pro Oktave bei entsprechenden Problemen beim Bau einer solchen Klaviatur. Dazu haben Tonsystemerweiterungen in Vielfachen von 12 eine höhere Kompatibilität zum herkömmlichen System, und die Nähe der besseren Tonsysteme mit 29 zu 24 und 53 zu 48 zeigt, dass die Vielfachen in der Aufführung als Näherungen zu den besseren Darstellungen betrachtet werden können. Gérard Grisey (z.B. Les espaces acoustiques) und Tristan Murail sind Vertreter der Spektralisten, die in ihren Partituren erweiterte Tonsysteme verwenden. Hier sind die Tonangaben jedoch harmonisch statt melodisch gedacht, sind also in der Aufführung entsprechend zu interpretieren. YouTube: Gérard Grisey - Vortex Temporum - Ensemble Recherche Natürlich dürfen die Töne von Instrumenten nicht nur mit ihrer Grundfrequenz betrachtet werden, sondern erst das Zusammenspiel aller Harmonischen und Obertöne in Vielfachen der Grundfrequenz machen den charakteristischen Klang eines Instruments aus. Durch eine Fourier-Analyse kann mathematisch ein solches Frequenzspektrum eines Geräusches oder eines Tons berechnet werden. Oft ist hier eine überraschende Anzahl von Obertönen zu sehen, die von Menschen nicht unabhängig vom Grundton gehört werden. In der Ottoman Musik finden sich oft für west-europäische Ohren ungewohnte Harmonien, die aus ihrer langen orientalischen Geschichte andere Formen der Komposition und Tonsysteme entwickelt haben. In der Audioelektronik wurden ab etwa 1912 Röhren für Verstärker und insbesondere in der Musik verwendet, und die exakte Bauform der Bleche und Elektroden hatte deutliche Auswirkungen auf die Übertragung und Erzeugung von Spektren und Audiowellen durch Verzerrungen. Die Hammondorgel war eine sehr beliebte elektromechanische Orgel, wo anstatt von Pfeifen rotierende Zahnräder vor elektrischen Abnehmern die Töne erzeugten. Mit Hilfe von Röhren wurde in der DDR versucht, Silbermann-Orgeln als elektronische Orgeln auf Basis des Prinzips der Hammondorgel nachzubilden. Die Klangfarben der Silbermann-Orgeln wurden hier durch elektronische Rekonstruktion der Obertöne nachempfunden. Was als angenehmer Klang empfunden wird, ist eine persönliche Sache. Jedoch ist auffällig, dass der harmonische Grundklang eines Dur-Akkords einen sehr mathematischen Hintergrund hat: Die Quinte integriert den Faktor 3, bzw. 3/2, also 1.5, die große Terz den Faktor 5, bzw. 5/4 also 1.25, und die Quarte zur nächsten Oktave mit Faktor 2 ist der Faktor 4/3. Ein Zusammenspiel von so kleinen Faktoren wird bei kleinem kleinsten gemeinsamen Vielfachen wieder periodisch und ergibt einen gleichmäßigen Klang. Das persönliche Empfinden kann physiologisch mit dem Aufbau der Hörschnecke zusammenhängen, wird aber auch stark durch Erfahrungen geprägt. Musik besteht aber nicht aus einem Klang, sondern einer zeitlichen Abfolge von Konsonanz und Dissonanz, und das gilt nicht nur für neue Veröffentlichungen alter Meister von Wolfgang Rehm. So spielt Ornette Coleman mit den Erwartungen der Hörenden bis ins Chaos. YouTube: Ornette Coleman Solo - Rare! Im Google-Doodle zu Ehren von Johann Sebastian Bach hingegen versucht aus eine Vorgabe mit einem neuronalen Netz gerade die erwartete Vervollständigung im Stil von Bach zu komponieren. Eine Regelmäßigkeit oder Überraschung in der Musik kann auch im Sinne eines Informationsgehalts interpretiert werden: Sehr regelmäßige Formen sind vorhersagbar und enthalten wenig Information, die unerwartete Wendung hingegen trägt viel Information. Die als algorithmischen Komposition bezeichneten Werkzeuge werden in vielen Programmen und Geräten angeboten, beispielsweise als automatische Begleitung. Die Ergebnisse erscheinen aber nicht sehr kreativ. Bei der Verwendung von künstlichen neuronalen Netzen für die Komposition ist es leider nicht möglich im Nachhinein zu analysieren, warum und wie bestimmte Passagen erzeugt wurden: Auch wenn sie mit existierenden Beispielen mit Backpropagation trainiert wurden, arbeiten dann als Black Box, aus der nicht direkt abstrakte Entscheidungsgrundlagen reproduziert werden können. Alles Lernen setzt voraus, dass es ein Maß für die Güte gibt, was ist demnach die Qualität einer Komposition, was unterscheidet Kreativität vom Zufall und wo stimmt dies zwischen unterschiedlichen Menschen überein? Wie an prähistorischen Instrumenten zu erkennen, ist Klangerzeugung und Musik mit der Stimmbildung eng mit der Evolution des Menschen verknüpft. Recht spät entstanden Techniken zur Kodifizierung von Tonfolgen, wie beispielsweise in der Gregorianik. Es ist anzunehmen, dass der gesellschaftliche Einfluss auf die Kompositionen ihrer Zeit sehr groß war, und es jeweils auch besondere Auswirkungen wie die Blue Notes gegeben hat. Heute wird Komposition in vielen Schritten gelehrt: Angefangen von der Musiktheorie, Erlernen von Instrumenten und Musikgeschichte wird dann in Kompositionstechniken unterschiedlicher Musikepochen eingeführt. Ausgehend von den Techniken von Josquin Desprez im 15. Jahrhundert zur Verwendung des Kontrapunkt im 16. Jahrhundert, oder wie Johann Sebastian Bach den Kontrapunkt im 18. Jahrhundert nutzte. In den Notenblättern von Ludwig van Beethoven ist zu erkennen, wie er von Joseph Haydn das Komponieren auf Basis von Kontrapunkten erlernte, und auch heute mit seinen inzwischen vom Betthoven-Haus umfangreich digitalisierte Werk die Musikforschung begeistert. Ein Lehrkanon kann sich wie Kompositionstechniken über die Zeit ändern, so wie in der Mathematik früher das Riemannsche Integral Standard war, so sehen wir inzwischen den Übergang zum mächtigeren und der Wirklichkeit näheren Integralbegriff nach Lebesgue. So wie heute häufiger der neuere Begriff zum Einsatz kommt, so ist es sinnvoll und gut, auch frühere Techniken, wie auch frühere Kompositionstechniken, zu kennen und daraus lernen zu können. Im Berufsbild einer Komponistin oder eines Komponisten ist es heute meisstens nicht so, dass der Kreativität freien Lauf gelassen wird, sondern die Arbeit erfolgt in interdisziplinärer Zusammenarbeit in einem Team. Besonders für Videospielmusik oder Filmmusik wird die Komposition auf besondere Situationen hin entwickelt und erarbeitet. Wie Kreativität, Teamwork, Künstliche Intelligenz und Programmieren zu neuen Lösungen zusammenwirken kann, war auf der Gulaschprogrammiernacht auch in der Projektion der Schlangenprogrammiernacht zu sehen, wo verschiedene Programme als Schlangen in einer virtuellen Welt miteinander lebten. Der spielerische Umgang mit Algorithmen wie bei Schere, Stein, Papier führt schnell auf Spieltheorie und Herausforderungen im Hochfrequenzhandel. Literatur und weiterführende Informationen C.-Z. A.

Der Niederländer Jan Konst heiratete in eine Familie aus Meißen ein. Nun hat er deren Familiengeschichte nacherzählt, und beschreibt gleichzeitig eine Zeitreise durch das 20. Jahrhundert.

Fin dai primi anni del Settecento l’antica città di Meissen, in Sassonia, custodisce il segreto della raffinata arte della porcellana, una delle più brillanti espressioni della ricerca del bello.

Does a discussion about dinnerware just include the work of either skilled potters or gifted designers? When beauty and function intersect with a certain type of (possibly twisted) visionary genius, anomalies and curiosities of dinnerware are created. Illustrative of the short list of 20th and 21st century artists who took standard plates, cups and saucers, place settings, and teapots, and elevated each to the level of an anomaly and curiosity and perhaps a masterpiece never to be forgotten, includes (but is not limited to), surrealist Meret Openheim, Pop artist Roy Lichtenstein, modernist Constantin Brancusi, feminist artist Judy Chicago, conceptual artist Howard Kottler, photographer Cindy Sherman, noted artist and epicure Kitaoji Rosanjin, and contemporary artists such as Katie Parker, Guy Michael Davis, and Dirk Staschke. This wild and creative genius can also be seen when examining the works of well-known companies that produced basic dishes and then went one step further to produce memorable, even unforgettable tureens, teapots and sauce boats, such as Meissen, Minton, and Wedgwood. Through the imagery and stories shared in this presentation, the audience will witness inspirational makers, mentors and milestones.

On arranged marriages among royalty. How does porcelain represent a royal marriage? When Maria Amalia of Saxony married Carlo, King of the Two Sicilies, in 1738, she brought Meissen porcelain with her to Naples. Her grandfather had founded the first European porcelain factory in 1710 and the Saxon court often presented porcelain to ambassadors and others who helped them to broker strategic political marriages.

Doing the hard work never sounded so good. We turn to some veteran creatives this week for the antidotes to antic times.Drive-By Truckers' "American Band" Takes On A Mad World - 1:48Ever since coming together in Athens, Georgia, in 1996, The Drive-By Truckers have reinvented southern rock and its assumptions about identity and tradition. While the band has seen plenty of personnel changes over the years, the heart of the Truckers' sound is the musical partnership between Mike Cooley and Patterson Hood. The band played their entire new album, "American Band," for a lucky audience in the OPB studio, and talked about some of the stories and recent events that drove the song-writing. Contest Time: Flash Fiction From Tin House's Master Book Of Plots -14:54Portland/New York publisher Tin House is re-publishing an astonishing writers’ tool from 1928, called “Plotto: The Master Book of All Plots.” Author William Wallace Cook detailed some 1,462 plots to help struggling writers. Tin House held a national contest a few years ago with the first re-publication, and they’re doing it again this month to celebrate the paperback. For five weeks, beginning October 19th, Tin House will post a new plot each Wednesday, and writers will have until the following Monday to write a 500-word story based on it. The five winners will read their stories on State of Wonder, and we'll announce the grand prize winner. PAM's Big New Modern Building -20:40The Portland Art Museum announced a splashy capital project to build the Mark Rothko Pavilion between its existing two buildings. This $75 million expansion and endowment will be dedicated to painter and one-time Portlander and art museum student Mark Rothko. Equally exciting: Rothko's children have offered to loan rotating major works by the modernist master over the next 20 years.PNCA President Don Tuski on Challenges Facing the College - 21:52The new President of PNCA had barely been on the job two months when the college announced the suspension of its Critical Theory and Creative Research MFA program. Think Out Loud spoke with Tuski about why the move was made just days before classes were scheduled to begin. Tuski also addresses the need to boost student enrollment, the benefits of an art education, and his approach to making the most of PNCA's new home at 511 Broadway. Artist Malia Jensen on "Ground Effects" -27:31It's been great having contemporary artist Malia Jensen back in town. Since her return from an eleven-year stint in New York, she's shown work at Reed College's Case Works, Wieden + Kennedy, and collaborated with the dance ensemble Body Vox. Jensen's practice crackles with ideas and wit, delivered with a high level of craftsmanship. We talk to her about her October exhibition, “Ground Effects,” on view at Elizabeth Leach Gallery in Portland.Chloe Eudaly and Steve Novick Cross Swords On Housing -36:46The race for Portland City Council is heating up. Steve Novick, previously an environmental lawyer and political advisor, is seeking another term. Challenger Chloe Eudaly is an owner and co-founder of the ‘zine and bookstore Reading Frenzy. Ceramics Meets Rock & Roll at the LH Project -38:45Located at the base of the spectacular Wallowa Mountains, the LH Project has been called the Shangri-la of ceramics. Jakob Hasslacher founded the residency to bring world-class artists to one of the West's most stunning landscapes, but one group that's especially close to his heart returns year-after-year: veterans.Art Beat Serves Up Chris Antemann's Forbidden Fruit -48:17Ceramicist Chris Antemann has developed a gorgeous, eye-popping style of porcelain figures that shatter the dainty, mannered image of Neoclassical porcelain. Her alliance with the legendary German porcelain manufacturer, Meissen, has pushed her onto an international stage and a wider world of collectors.

Neil MacGregor focuses on how 18th century German chemists discovered the secrets of Chinese porcelain, known then as 'white gold' - translucent, fine-glazed, and much-coveted. Porcelain became a lucrative source of income, and was used for prestigious diplomatic gifts. The Meissen porcelain factory remained one of the most prestigious parts of German manufacturing right up until 1945. Producer Paul Kobrak.

WITH GUEST CO/HOST THE BEAUTIFUL  TONI REDD Jerry Butler was accorded the nickname "The Ice Man" by a Philadelphia DJ who once called Butler's show "the coolest thing I ever saw." That was in the early ‘60s after Butler had left the Impressions, with whom he'd scored the doo-wop hit "For Your Precious Love." More than 40 years later, he's still the Ice Man, but you can call him "Commissioner Ice Man," as he is Cook County Board Commissioner in his native Chicago.

La plus ancienne manufacture de porcelaine d’Europe après Meissen fut fondée à Vienne en 1718. La porcelaine était à l’époque un objet de collection coûteux et fort recherché, mais elle n’était pas jugée digne de garnir la table impériale, hormis pour le dessert. C’est tout compte fait grâce à la conversion de l’argenterie de la Cour en monnaie pour les besoins de la guerre qu’aux environs de 1800 la porcelaine put enfin être présentée sur les tables de la Cour. En 1803, l’empereur François commanda pour la table impériale un service en porcelaine de 120 pièces, dont 60 assiettes à dessert illustrées et 24 assiettes à soupe. Ces assiettes d’une qualité exceptionnelle sont appelées « assiettes panorama ». Les motifs choisis sont patriotiques et romantiques à la fois. Les convives pouvaient admirer, entrecoupant les bords dorés, des volcans en éruption, d’arides paysages de glaciers ou d’impressionnants exemplaires de l’architecture viennoise. Chaque assiette présente trois paysages : une vue d’Autriche, une de la Suisse et une de l’Italie, d’après d’anciens modèles des meilleurs peintres sur porcelaine de Vienne. Il fallut 5 ans pour réaliser ce travail. www.hofburg-wien.at | Download Tour-Guide (PDF)© by Schloß Schönbrunn Kultur- und Betriebsges.m.b.H.

En 1710 fut fondée à Meissen la première et pendant bien longtemps la meilleure manufacture de porcelaine d’Europe. Le service en porcelaine de Meissen réalisé aux environs de 1775 est recouvert de magnifiques peintures florales. La forme des pièces illustre parfaitement le « classicisme baroque » : alors que les soupières ventrues, avec leurs boutons en forme de fruit semblent encore appartenir à l’époque baroque, le panier à pain ajouré rejoint déjà le classicisme inspiré de l’Antiquité. www.hofburg-wien.at | Download Tour-Guide (PDF)© by Schloß Schönbrunn Kultur- und Betriebsges.m.b.H.

The first – and for many years the best – porcelain manufactory in Europe was established at Meissen in 1710. This Meissen service made around 1775 is striking for its exquisite floral painting. The shapes of the individual pieces are good examples of “Baroque Classicism”. While the bulbous tureens with finials in the shape of fruits still seem to belong to the Baroque era, the perforated fruit basket already displays elements of Classicism with its predilection for the formal repertoire of Antiquity.www.hofburg-wien.at | Download Tour-Guide (PDF)© by Schloß Schönbrunn Kultur- und Betriebsges.m.b.H.

A Meissen fu fondata nel 1710 la prima (e a lungo migliore) Manifattura europea di porcellane. Il Servizio di Meissen, realizzato intorno al 1775, è interamente cosparso di magnifici motivi floreali. La foggia del servizio è un pregevole esempio di „classicismo barocco“. Mentre le zuppiere panciute con il pomello a forma di frutto sembrano ancora nel segno del barocco, il cestino traforato da frutta appartiene già al classicismo, con la sua predilezione per il tesoro formale dell‘antichità classica. www.hofburg-wien.at | Download Tour-Guide (PDF)© by Schloß Schönbrunn Kultur- und Betriebsges.m.b.H.

En Meissen se fundó en 1710 la primera y durante largo tiempo la mejor manufactura de porcelana de Europa. El servicio de mesa Meissner, que data del 1775 aproximadamente, está dominado por espléndidas pinturas florales. Estas formas son buenos ejemplos del “clasicismo barroco“. Mientras que las soperas abombadas con el pomo de fruta todavía parecen pertenecer a la época del Barroco, el cesto de frutas se decanta por el Clasicismo con su gusto por las formas de la Antigüedad. www.hofburg-wien.at | Download Tour-Guide (PDF)© by Schloß Schönbrunn Kultur- und Betriebsges.m.b.H.

The second-oldest porcelain manufactory after Meissen was founded in Vienna in 1718. Although at that time porcelain was a sought-after and costly collector’s object, it was not yet considered worthy of being used at the imperial table, except for the dessert course. The fact that it became acceptable at court around 1800 is also due to the court table silver having been melted down to produce coins during the wars. In 1803 Emperor Franz ordered a porcelain service comprising 120 items for the court table, including 60 pictorial plates for dessert and 24 “panorama” soup plates of exceptional quality. The choice of motifs was both patriotic and Romantic. Framed by gold rims, the scenes include erupting volcanoes, icy glacier landscapes or imposing Viennese architecture – each plate displaying three views from Austria, Switzerland and Italy, executed by the best porcelain painters after old engravings, a painstaking task that took five years.www.hofburg-wien.at | Download Tour-Guide (PDF)© by Schloß Schönbrunn Kultur- und Betriebsges.m.b.H.
