Liên hoan nhiếp ảnh quốc tế Arles (Les Rencontres de la photographie d'Arles ) tại thành phố Arles ở miền nam nước Pháp là một sự kiện vốn được mệnh danh là Liên hoan Cannes của nghệ thuật nhiếp ảnh. Tại Liên hoan Arles lần thứ 55 ( 01/07 - 29/09/2024 ), công chúng đã có dịp khám phá các tác phẩm của nghệ sĩ Pháp gốc Việt Hứa Như Xuân thực hiện với đồng nghiệp gốc Ấn Độ Vimala Pons trong khuôn khổ cuộc triển lãm mang tên "Thiên đường và Địa ngục ( Heaven and Hell "). Các tác phẩm của Như Xuân Hứa và Vimala Pons là sự kết hợp giữa nghệ thuật sân khấu, biểu diễn và nhiếp ảnh, trong đó họ đặt câu hỏi về đối tượng nữ trong nhiếp ảnh, thể hiện qua 9 biểu tượng, từ tài tử Mỹ Drew Barrymore đến tay đua thuyền người Pháp Florence Arthaud hay Mel C của nhóm nhạc nữ Spice Girls của Anh Quốc. Trả lời RFI tại Liên hoan nhiếp ảnh Arles, nghệ sĩ Hứa Như Xuân cho biết:“Tôi thực hiện dự án này với Vimala Pons cũng chính là vì cả hai chúng tôi khao khát đưa vào nghệ thuật khái niệm gánh nặng của cảm xúc. Đối với tôi, những người mang gánh nặng đó thường là những người mẹ. Tôi muốn nêu lên trải nghiệm của cá nhân với tư cách một phụ nữ Pháp gốc Việt, nhưng cũng qua đó tôn vinh những người phụ nữ trong gia đình tôi, nhất là vai trò của mẹ tôi trong việc xây dựng cuộc đời của tôi, trong việc hình thành hành trang nghệ thuật của tôi cho tới nay.Dự án với Vimala Pons chính là dựa trên những trải nghiệm của chính hai chúng tôi trong cương vị phụ nữ. Điều này không có nghĩa là chúng tôi loại trừ một giới tính nào, nhưng chỉ là thể hiện mong muốn thầm kín về những gì mà chúng tôi đã trải qua và tiếp tục tôn vinh những phụ nữ đã có sự hy sinh rất lớn, dù đó là những thần tượng có thật hay hư cấu.”Nhờ công trình nghệ thuật độc đáo đó mà Hứa Như Xuân và Vimala Pons đã nằm trong số những người được đề cử cho giải thưởng của tạp chí Pháp Madame Figaro 2024 dành cho các nữ nhiếp ảnh gia có tác phẩm được trưng bày ở Liên hoan nhiếp ảnh Arles ( Giải này sau đó được trao cho Tshepiso Mazibuko, nữ nhiếp ảnh gia người Nam Phi ).Những yếu tố nào đã thúc đẩy Hứa Như Xuân đi theo con đường nghệ thuật, con đường mà thường các bậc cha mẹ trong những gia đình người Việt ít khuyến khích? Cô thổ lộ: “Tôi nghĩ có lẽ do bản chất của tôi người luôn tranh đấu, có nhiều tham vọng. Khi có ai nói là tôi không thể làm được điều gì đó, thì phản ứng của tôi là phản ứng trước một sự bất công, mà sự bất công đầu tiên đối với tôi đó là sinh ra là con gái.Tôi biết rằng vì thương tôi hoặc vì muốn tôi có một cuộc sống an toàn, hồi còn nhỏ, gia đình tôi thường cấm tôi làm điều này, điều kia. Với tâm lý thích nổi loạn, tôi muốn chứng minh là tôi có khả năng làm những điều đó, chứ không bị hạn chế bởi giới tính của mình.Ngoài ra, cha tôi cũng là một nghệ sĩ, đến Pháp sau chiến tranh, nhưng đã không thể sống bằng nghệ thuật, nên có lẽ ông cũng sợ con mình sẽ giống vậy. Ông không ngăn cản tôi đi vào con đường nghệ thuật vì bản thân ông cũng muốn làm nghệ sĩ, nhưng ông vẫn có nỗi lo về tài chính, lo rằng vì ông đã không làm được, thì chắc tôi cũng sẽ không làm được.”Hiện đã trở lại Paris sau một thời gian sống ở Luân Đôn, Hứa Như Xuân là một tên tuổi quen thuộc trong ngành nhiếp ảnh thời trang, vì cô đã cộng tác với các thương hiệu hàng đầu như Dior, Maison Margiela, Kenzo et Gucci và là nhiếp ảnh gia thời trang cho các tạp chí nổi tiếng như Time Magazine, Vogue hay Dazed Beauty, đặc biệt chính cô đã chụp hình nhóm nhạc K-pop nổi tiếng BTS của Hàn Quốc cho bìa tạp chí Time. Vào năm ngoái, tạp chí Vogue đã xem Hứa Như Xuân là một trong năm nữ nghệ sĩ “đang làm một cuộc cách mạng trong nghệ thuật nhiếp ảnh”. Vogue nhìn thấy nơi Hứa Như Xuân “một phong cách độc đáo, một phong cách mà sau đó cô đã mở rộng thêm bằng cách thực hiện nhiều bức ảnh cá nhân hơn. Hứa Như Xuân đã thử nghiệm nhiều ngôn ngữ, trộn lẫn các kỹ thuật khác nhau, thử nghiệm các hình thức mới... Chủ đề chung của cô vẫn như cũ: sự biến đổi hiện thực dưới tác động của ký ức, thể hiện qua những hình ảnh mờ ảo một cách tinh tế, vì chúng đã bị thời gian làm tiêu tan. Cô cố gắng xây dựng lại những gì đã bị lãng quên: về cá nhân cô, gia đình cô, tổ tiên cô.” Vào năm 2022, Hứa Như Xuân cho ra mắt tập ảnh “Tropism”, được Liên hoan xuất bản nhiếp ảnh độc lập Rolling Papers vào năm đó mô tả là “một cuộc điều tra độc đáo vào trung tâm mê cung ký ức rộng lớn”. Thông qua một album gia đình được sáng tạo lại, Hứa Như Xuân “hiện thực hóa những biến động của những ký ức khiến chúng ta lãng quên chúng.” Trong bức thư-bài thơ viết kèm theo những bức ảnh trong “Tropism”, Hứa Như Xuân viết: “Nhớ lại chính là chấp nhận rằng một cái gì đó đã bị lãng quên, một cái gì đó đã bị mất và một cái gì đó đã được sở hữu cần phải được tìm lại”.Trong người nữ nghệ sĩ này luôn chất chứa nỗi khát khao tìm lại ký ức gia đình, như tâm sự của cô: “Nỗi khao khát không phải là nảy sinh từ trong nghệ thuật, mà là cái gì đó rất thầm kín, rất riêng tư. Tôi đã sống 10 năm ở Luân Đôn. Tôi đã rời khỏi Paris vì thấy rằng văn hóa Pháp không tạo những cơ hội để tôi khám phá những gì tôi muốn khám phá về mặt nghề nghiệp cũng như về mặt cá nhân.Khi đến Luân Đôn, tôi đã khám phá một xã hội hoàn toàn mang tính đa văn hóa, trong đó mọi người gắn bó với văn hóa của mình, biết mình từ đâu đến. Qua những cuộc gặp gỡ, chính bản thân tôi cũng tự đặt những câu hỏi cho riêng mình. Khi người ta hỏi tôi đến từ đâu, một cách vô thức, tôi trả lời mình là người Pháp, trong khi người ta chờ đợi một câu trả lời khác. Chỉ đến khi ông bà tôi qua đời và chúng tôi phải rời bỏ căn nhà gia đình, tôi muốn nhận thức được rằng sự mất mát đó sẽ dẫn đến những hậu quả, dẫn đến sự lãng quên. Từ đó tôi bắt đầu đặt những câu hỏi, tôi mới kết nối trở lại với câu chuyện của đình tôi. Trong 6 năm qua, trong công việc của tôi, cuộc tìm kiếm ký ức, nỗi mong muốn không lãng quên điều gì, chính là xuất phát từ sự qua đời của ông bà tôi, từ việc chúng tôi phải rời bỏ căn nhà gia đình, nơi lưu giữ 30 năm kỷ niệm gia đình. Bản thân tôi cũng là một người rất hoài niệm và cũng rất lãng mạn. Những điều đó có ảnh hưởng rất lớn đến các tác phẩm nghệ thuật của tôi, những yếu tố đó thường xuyên xuất hiện trong các bức ảnh của tôi, dù đó là các dự án cá nhân hay dự án được đặt hàng. Ngay cả trong các bức ảnh thời trang của tôi cũng chen lẫn vào đó một sự hoài niệm, nhưng một cách rất tinh tế.” Chính là qua nhiều chuyến trở về Việt Nam mà Hứa Như Xuân đã kết thúc cuộc hành trình tìm về ký ức: “Lần đầu tiên tôi trở về khi đã đến tuổi trưởng thành là vào năm 2016. Trước đó tôi đã về khi mới 10,13 tuổi, chưa ý thức được đất nước này là như thế nào, ngoài việc đây là nơi mà bố mẹ tôi lớn lên. Tôi nghĩ là chúng tôi đã sinh trưởng giống như nhiều người con cùng thế hệ của các gia đình cộng đồng người Việt, tức là chối bỏ văn hóa của mình và tự xem mình là người Pháp. Bản thân tôi đến năm 2016 mới thật sự bắt đầu cuộc hành trình mang lại rất nhiều điều cho tôi. Tôi nhớ rất rõ khi lần đầu tiên trở về Việt Nam, lúc cửa máy bay mở ra, tôi cảm nhận trở lại các mùi. Đến quầy kiểm tra hộ chiếu, khi lần đầu tiên nghe nhân viên đọc tên tôi đúng theo kiểu Việt Nam, tôi đã bị sốc vì cảm thấy như mình được kết nối trở lại, cảm thấy như đang ở nhà mình. Từ đó tôi quyết định trở về mỗi năm để tìm hiểu về lịch sử của đất nước, lịch sử của gia đình tôi cho đến nhiều năm sau khi tôi cảm thấy đã thấm nhuần đầy đủ gốc tích của mình để không còn cần quay trở lại nữa để tìm hiểu thêm. Lần cuối cùng tôi về Việt Nam là khi được mời tham gia các triển lãm.Nay tôi cảm thấy mình đã thành công tìm lại được nguồn gốc của mình mà tôi đã tìm kiếm vào đầu giai đoạn khủng hoảng bản sắc.”

RAW Rolling Papers Caught in a Web of Deceit The January 31, 2023 court ruling forbids HBI International from marketing or stating any of the following: That HBI and/or RAW® contributes its funds or proceeds to a charitable entity/foundation dubbed the “RAW Foundation” That RAW® Organic Hemp rolling papers are “unrefined” That RAW® Organic Hemp rolling paper adhesives are made from natural hemp gum That RAW® Organic Hemp rolling papers are the world's first or only organic (or organic hemp) rolling papers That RAW® Organic Hemp rolling papers are made in Alcoy, Spain That HBI International shall not include a packaging “stamp” using the word Alcoy or referring to Alcoy That RAW® Organic Hemp rolling papers utilize wind power That RAW® Organic Hemp rolling papers are made from the center of hemp stalks That HBI or its founder Joshua Kesselmen invented rolling paper pre-rolled cones That OCB® Organic Hemp papers are knock-offs, “RAWnabees,” copies, or fake versions of RAW® rolling papers Raw® Organic Hemp Rolling Papers are an unrefined and all-natural smoking accessory that are manufactured in Alcoy, Spain. These rolling papers are made from the fibrous center of hemp stalks, and their adhesive is derived from natural hemp gum. As a result, RAW® Organic Hemp Rolling Papers have been deemed as the world's first organic hemp rolling paper. In order to ensure that their product is eco-friendly, manufacturers HBI International have decided that no packaging using the word “Alcoy” or referring to that specific location will be included in any of the production. This is in addition to the fact that during manufacturing processes RAW® utilizes wind power instead of electricity to power their machines. Moreover, HBI International would also like it to be known that they were the innovators who invented pre-rolled paper cones as part of their product line up. The company has also expressed discontent with other brands such as OCB® Organic Hemp papers since they feel these products are knock-offs, “RAWnabees” (or fake versions) of original RAW® rolling papers. With this information in mind, those looking for an eco-friendly smoking solution can rest assured knowing that RAW® Organic Hemp Rolling Papers will not only provide them with a chemical free option but also contribute towards making a cleaner environment due to its production process which doesn't rely heavily on electricity or hazardous materials.

Nostalgia, Ultra (stylized as nostalgia,ULTRA. and occasionally nostalgia/ultra) is the debut mixtape by American recording artist Frank Ocean. It was released on February 16, 2011. Ocean was inspired to make the mixtape, after Hurricane Katrina in his native New Orleans and his subsequent relocation to Los Angeles. After joining alternative hip hop group Odd Future in 2010, he self-released the mixtape, without initial promotion. Nostalgia, Ultra has a unique R&B aesthetic and features surreal themes and nostalgic lyrics. The songs mostly focus on interpersonal relationships, personal reflection, and social commentary. Following its release, the mixtape received rave reviews from music critics. The cover features a picture of a bright orange 1980s BMW E30 M3, Ocean's "dream car", in plain sight amidst lush greenery. In May 2011, Def Jam announced its plans to release the mixtape as an EP on July 26, 2011. However, the release of the EP was indefinitely delayed in July 2011 and has since been cancelled. Two singles were released from the aborted EP version: "Novacane", and "Swim Good". Both songs received music videos directed by Australian director Nabil Elderkin. Ocean embarked on a solo concert tour through North America and Europe to promote the record, playing a total of 7 shows. In addition, his 2012 performance at the Coachella Music Festival included several live renditions from the release including "Strawberry Swing" and "LoveCrimes". The mixtape appeared on several music critics' and publications' end-of-year albums lists. Controversy arose in March 2012 over the song "American Wedding", a remake of the song "Hotel California" by American rock band Eagles. Recording artist Kanye West was reportedly a fan of the mixtape, which led to Ocean appearing on the album Watch the Throne. Subsequently, Ocean collaborated with artists Beyoncé Knowles and Jay-Z after they were introduced to the mixtape through West. Following its release, both Ocean and the mixtape have developed a cult following. The mixtape was followed by the release of Ocean's debut album Channel Orange to similar critical acclaim in 2012. Frank Ocean was born in New Orleans, Louisiana. He made the decision to pursue a career in music at a young age, and as a teen, he did neighborhood chores to fund his early studio sessions. After Hurricane Katrina hit his hometown of New Orleans, Ocean moved to Los Angeles to pursue a recording career. He initially had problems maintaining a career while juggling a job, due to spending too much time in the recording studios, making him late for his jobs. He began to write songs and he sold them to other recording artists; selling his first song to Noel Gourdin at the age of 19. Discussing as to why he chose to write songs, Ocean commented that "I feel at a higher level of consciousness when I'm being creative." Eventually, he landed songwriting gigs for established artists like John Legend and Justin Bieber where he made substantially more money. In late 2009, he met producer Tricky Stewart, who helped Ocean sign a contract with Def Jam Recordings as a solo artist. However, he was initially unable to build a relationship with the company. In protest, Ocean joined the rap collective Odd Future which introduced him to artists such as Tyler, The Creator and Hodgy Beats. His debut song was "SteamRoller" on the Domo Genesis album Rolling Papers. Ocean garnered acclaim and generated interest while in the group, and Rolling Stone magazine's Jonah Weiner called him a "gifted avant-R&B smoothie". During his time with the group he recorded and self-released Nostalgia, Ultra without any pre-release promotion on his Tumblr account. The mixtape samples songs from Radiohead, Coldplay, MGMT, Mr. Hudson and The Eagles, which Ocean sings over. Ocean, when uploading the album to iTunes, labeled it as bluegrass and death metal, out of arbitrariness. When asked about why he uploaded the songs in that way, he replied; "I don't want to se --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/king-public-domain/support

Beau-Brandon Cleeton, Founder of Canadian Lumber, realized there were few Canadian rolling paper companies so he decided to start his own. Upon conducting research to produce the highest quality products, he uncovered that many papers on the market contain asbestos, bleach and chalk. This shocking discovery has lead Beau to ensure all Canadian Lumber products are all natural, unbleached, unrefined and conflict-free and educating the public on the dangers of the lack of regulations for accessory products.

After the success of his debut album, Rolling Papers, Wiz Khalifa became a full superstar, moved to LA and married Amber Rose. This led many of his original fans "Taylors" to think that the Pop sounds of Rolling Papers was his new sound and he was no longer making the music that won them over. Taylor Allederdice proved them wrong. This "mixtape" showed everyone that Wiz could combine all of his sounds into one cohesive body of work.
