"My entire philosophy of choral music is that of all forms of music it is the one that has the capacity to produce a state of transcendence, and as a composer that is my primary function. Bear in mind, I don't write music for choirs; I write music for people. If you perform the music correctly, it can open a gateway, a higher state of consciousness."Born in 1964 in Dublin, Ireland, Michael is a composer of music and lyrics, film maker and runs the three connected vocal ensembles that he founded ANÚNA, M'ANAM and Systir. Michael's music combines elements of modality and contemporary compositional practices. He specializes in the composition of music for voices.His extensive output includes a number of pieces that have entered the standard repertoire of choirs all over the world. His settings of Irish language texts in particular fuse modality, alternating time signatures and medieval tonal colours in a unique fashion that is instantly recognisable as his work. While he is deeply passionate about creating music in the Irish language his music is expansive, spanning genres, languages and exploring the links between film making and musical creativity. Michael's music spans a huge range of textures, encompassing larger scale occasional pieces such as “Agnus Dei” (2005) commissioned by Chanticleer, and “Maalaulu” (2021), commissioned by Tampere Vocal Festival. Many of his compositions have entered the standard choral repertoire for choirs across the world including “Incantations”, “Dúlamán”, “One Last Song” and “Hinbarra”. In 2017 Michael was the recipient of the University College Dublin Alumni Award in Arts/Humanities and was visiting Eminent Scholar at the Music Department of Florida Atlantic University (2011-2013). In 2019 he became part of the UCD Creative Fellows. He was Artistic Director of the Tampere Vocal Festival (2021) and in 2022 was invited to give a presentation on the genesis of his compositions at the Nordic Choral Directors Conference in Reykjavík. His film “Mutability and Transcendence” was premiered at the World Symposium on Choral Music 2023 in Istanbul. Michael has produced and recorded nineteen albums for ANÚNA and M'ANAM. ANÚNA (1993), Celtic Origins (2007) and Christmas Memories (2008) have featured in the US Billboard Charts. Deep Dead Blue (1999) was nominated for a Classical Brit Award and went top five in the UK Classical Charts.

#66 BELLA RUNE – STRING REVOLUTION Snöret är en av mänsklighetens viktigaste uppfinningar, och sömnad och textil bland dess mest centrala teknologier. Det menar konstnären Bella Rune. Hon ser själv inga gränser eller motsättningar mellan uråldriga teknologier och dagen digitala dito, och arbetar gärna med exempelvis appar, 3d-utskrivna objekt och mohairtråd i samma andetag. Rune tog med Susanne Skog på en runda i sin pågående utställning - en visning och ett samtal vindlande mellan teknologier, konst, idéer och historiska förlopp. Utställningen String Revolution visas på Kulturcentrum Ronneby konsthall fram till 21 maj 2023. Verk av Bella Rune som nämns i avsnittet: Vertical Network Performance, är ett samlingsnamn för en grupp av skulpturer alla verken har individuella namn. Vertikala mohairskulpturer, pågående serie.

Grandpa Bill today explores the saying Everyone knows a politician will use the mutability of the truth to his advantage. So How does this translate to Gold & Silver? The Immutability of God is an attribute that "God is unchanging in his character, will, and covenant promises." The Westminster Shorter Catechism says that "[God] is a spirit, whose being, wisdom, power, holiness, justice, goodness, and truth are infinite, eternal, and unchangeable." Those things do not change. An immutable type is a type of which its properties can only be set at initialization. Once an object is created, nothing can be changed anymore. An immutable property is simply a read-only property. Objects whose value can change are said to be mutable; objects whose value is unchangeable once they are created are called immutable.

Critics have concurred in the opinion that the anonymous hero of the poem is Shelley himself, who feared that he too would become an "inheritor of unfulfilled renown." Today, the poem is considered to be the first major work of Shelley's maturity. Appended to the collection were a number of shorter pieces: 1) To Coleridge 2) Stanzas — April 1814 3) Mutability 4) The pale, the cold, and the moony smile 5) A Summer-evening Church-yard 6) To Wordsworth 7) Feelings of a Republican on the Fall of Bonaparte 8) Superstition 9) Sonnet from the Italian of Dante 10) Translated from the Greek of Moschus 11) The Daemon of the World The final poem is a reworking of the first two cantos of a much larger work, Queen Mab, which was first published in 1813.

Ray Nayler has been widely hailed as one of the up-and-coming masters of speculative fiction. He has published over fifty stories in preeminent magazines across the realms of science fiction and fantasy, and he is also an established poet, mystery and crime thriller novelist, and comic book author. Not to mention his daily life as a husband, father (of both humans and cats), and as a multi-lingual foreign service officer in Kosovo. His work in Kosovo builds on nearly two decades of service in countries like Russia, Turkmenistan, Tajikistan, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Afghanistan, Azerbaijan, Vietnam.I first encountered Ray through his short story, "Fire in the Bone," published in Clarkesworld Magazine in January of 2019. It is both a beautiful, suspenseful story and a stark examination of the ways in which imperial culture, colonialism, and slavery brutally injure the humanity of both the oppressed and the oppressors. The story knocked me out of my chair. Watch out for that cutting twist at the end, or it might just do the same for you ;)What you'll hear today is a wonderful conversation exploring culture, humanity, and identity. We unpack how to move from binary thinking to triadic thinking, and what becomes possible when we approach who we are, what we are, and how we are with more nuance, depth, and creativity.Listening to Ray is a study in mutability; what it is to change the world and be changed by it in equal measure. I hope that, after hearing this, you'll spend time with his remarkable writings. He's remarkably creative and talented, and just an incredibly smart and thoughtful human being.

What's this? a Special Edition? Believe it or not, we do focus on technology at Elemental Collision, sometimes a bit more directly than not. As we look at the role data has in community, it becomes important to understand the ways that data is "mutable;" that is, changeable. If you can't trust the data you're given, what good is it? This podcast attempts to explain some of the issues with data, mutability and social impacts as a consequence.

It's two thousand and four and I don't know a soul who doesn't feel small among the numbers. Razor small. Look down these days to see your feet mistrust the pavement and your blood tests turn the doctor's expression grave. Look up to catch eclipses, gold leaf, comets, angels, chandeliers, out of the corner of your eye, join them if you like, learn astrophysics, or learn folksong, human sacrifice, mortality, flying, fishing, sex without touching much. Don't trouble, though, to head anywhere but the sky.

The scriptures state that God does not change. We examine what some possible interpretations of this are. There is one extreme of Classical Theism where God cannot change at all and therefore can't really be affected by prayer or humanity. We discuss the option that perhaps this refers to God's Character and his resoluteness to fulfill his promises. We then turn to God and his ability to be affected emotionally. Can God suffer? Well Jesus did and we examine the implications of that and much more. Enjoy! Topics Discussed: • Defining Changelessness • Immutability in Nature • Immutability in Will • Immutability and Mutability in God’s Knowledge • Divine Passibility in Feeling 1. The Argument of Divine Love 2. The Argument from Immanent Omniscience 3. The Argument from Worshipworthiness

In the midst of a social tragedy like the aftermath of the earthquake that hit L'Aquila in Italy, it is hard to believe that history keeps on turning along its inevitable orbit. In The mutability of all things and the possibility of changing some, 2012, the continuous transformation from one state to another means the appearance and, at once, the ultimate end of all temporal structures.

The mutability of all things and the possibility of changing some, 2012 se basa en la tragedia social acontecida tras el terremoto que golpeó L'Aquila. La cineasta narra cómo pese a ello la historia sigue girando de manera irremediable. La continua transformación de un estado a otro es, a la vez, la apariencia y el fin último de toda estructura temporal.

This first episode introduces the Nature's Lead podcast by explaining the format, establishing a couple baseline concepts, and defining its purpose.

In this Open Valley, I read William Wordsworth’s sonnet entitled “November 1.” This Open Valley is a Reading, something I haven’t done before, meaning I’m just going to read and not add a lot of commentary. Now this poem reminded me of something I wrote years ago, and so I’m going to read that as well. I don’t share, very often, things that I’ve written, but the subjects of both of these writings are very similar.

In "The Truth about Truth," I discuss the meaning of truth and read a wonderful passage from Emerson's "The Transcendentalist."

In this Open Valley, I simply read one of Robert Frost’s most famous poems, “Birches.”

In this Open Valley, I read from William Blake’s famous "Songs of Innocence" and "Songs of Experience" and briefly discuss an alternate view.

In "Technology as Destination," I talk about the problem of treating technology as a destination, and I make an analogy to “A Descent into the Maelstrom” by Edgar Allan Poe.

In this Open Valley, I read a poem from Emily Dickinson and explore thoughts about shared, natural empathy existing within us and Nature.

In this Open Valley, I share my experience of getting locked inside of Rome's Protestant Cemetery where Keats and Shelley are buried.

In "Economic Individualism," I talk about recognizing our personal economies, and I read from Emerson for some guidance and inspiration.

In "Reality is Only Feelings," I talk about the movie, The Graduate, and how it unearths a true reality below the weight and confusion of society's institutions and traditions.

In this Open Valley, I discuss the surprisingly intricate structure of the sonnet poetical form and read from Wordsworth and Shakespeare as examples.

In "Love is Yours," I talk about beauty and love, and I read one of Shakespeare’s most famous sonnets.

In this Open Valley, I share my theory on a potential hidden code in one of Whitman's most famous poems, "When I Heard the Learn'd Astronomer."

An Open Valley is not a typical episode. It's a way for me to give you an update on the podcast, an update on personal items, or some info on other items that wouldn't fit into a normal episode. In this first Open Valley, beyond the house keeping stuff, I do briefly mention what a Rendevous was in the Rockies early in the 19th century.

In "Music's Emotional Manifest," I explore the idea of music's direct emotional effect on us while reading a famous poem from Wordsworth, and I'll also share a couple piano pieces I wrote.

In "Reinventing Intelligence," the idea of intelligence is approached again and this time I'll look at a movie character who helps flesh out a reinvention.

In "Hearing the Unheard," I talk about our buried sense of hearing, and I read some insightful lines from Emerson.

In "Jumping the Gap," I look at how the world we've manufactured for ourselves brings up many questions, and I'll recite some words from Thoreau and Wordsworth.

In "The Power Of Positive," I talk about some of the nuanced wealth in being positive around others, and I read a poem by Wordsworth that illustrates this idea.

In "One Year of Nature's Lead," I celebrate one year of the podcast and talk a bit about myself and Nature’s Lead.

In "A Moment's Miracle," I read a poem by Whitman that captures the essence of how we should approach each moment.

In "The Breeze of Happiness," I look at the transient potential of happiness and read from a beautiful poem by Coleridge.

In "The Great Fortune of Rough Emotions," I read a poem by Keats that helps me reflect on the power of rough emotions, and I also tell my humorous cemetery story.

In "The Deception of Progress," I talk about how the ideas of advancement and progress in society can be misleading, and I highlight a few lines by Emerson on the subject.

In "Finding the Needle in Noise," I read from James Joyce's "The Dead" and talk about how important it is to find underlying truth below the noise of social gatherings.

In "Reflecting a Raindrop," I look to the rain as Nature's active pursuit of our hearts, and I read some excerpts from Thoreau.

In "Open to Inspiration," I emphasize the need to be open to various sources of inspiration in our lives. As an example of this, I look at the famous movie, Citizen Kane.

In "Everything is Alive," I approach the intelligent, innocent idea of our youth that there is life in the inanimate, and I look at some of Wordsworth's lines from the famous poem "Tintern Abbey."

In "Defending Against Information," I explain why I think allowing ourselves too much free flowing information in our lives can be hazardous, and I talk about a famous quote from Wordsworth.

In "Nature's Delicate Immensity," I read from Emerson's work, "Nature," which both defines Nature and speaks of its significance to humanity.

In "Human Gravity," I talk about the need to gain perspective on the power that is pulling us together, and I look at some lines from a work by the Romantic poet, Lord Byron.

In "The Nature of Creativity," I'll examine the natural power of creativity and look at the way some Romantic writers approach the idea.

In "Unlocking Our Genius," I'll read many quotes from Emerson's famous "Self Reliance" which focuses on our inherent, internal genius.

In "Our Silent Breathing of Nature," I read a great poem by Walt Whitman that encourages our direct relationship with Nature, and I’ll touch a bit on how science is proving out this theoretical connection.

In "Assimilation of Spirit," I dip into some excerpts from Ralph Waldo Emerson's "Man the Reformer" which discusses our suspect world of business and luxuries.

In "Forever Looking to Learn," I talk about the need to create situations and experiences that allow our minds to grow. I’ll share a thought by Michelangelo, and I’ll talk about a pleasant experience I had last week.

In "Nature's Stinging Truth," I share a moving, personal experience from last week that illuminates the rough reality of nature.

In "The Greatest Known Fact," I share a quote from Thoreau you've probably never heard, a quote that I feel is the most valuable quote you could ever know; and I also touch on the idealism of the Romantics.

In "The Problem of Perfection," I address the flaw many of us have in so often, unknowingly, expecting perfection, and I look at how this is illuminated in part by Samuel Johnson's Rasselas.

In "To Change is To Live," I describe how change is essential to living, and I take a look at a poem by Shelley entitled "Mutability," which means the abiliy to change.

In "Leaping Heart," I look at a poem by Wordsworth that helps establish a central theme of the value of innocence in the Romantic era.

In "The Beauty of One," I talk about seeing the beauty of the individual, and I touch on our connection with Nature.

In "Our Obsession With Ourselves," I talk about society's intense focus on itself as marked by Wordsworth, and I try to separate society's view of what's important from the individual's view of what's important.
