Ready for a choose-your-own cosmic adventure? On this episode of Key Change, co-hosts Anna Garcia and Olga Perez Flora make way for old friends and new. Andrea Fellows Feinberg returns as guest host to introduce the creative team behind the intergalactic opera NOVA, a subversive meditation on responsibility and personal choice set against the end of the world––featuring Composer Brent Michael Davids, Librettist Marcie Rendon, and Music Director Sara Jobin. “We're gonna mess with the traditional opera genre of tragedies and comedies, do something interesting with it, and make two different endings,” confides Brent. He also messes with ideas around conventional sci-fi protagonists and cultural stereotypes. NOVA, for instance, is a brilliant Native American astrophysicist and head of NASA, the Native American Space Agency. Accompanying NOVA are her chief medical officer, Doc, and KID, a bionically modified mischief-maker. Brent hopes these narrative elements will inspire and empower Native youth. If the premise for NOVA sounds vaguely familiar, we teased its development in 2023. Back then, this Opera For All Voices commission was known as Interplanetary Opera. A lot has changed since then, notably the addition of Marcie and Sara, plus Andrea as the production's dramaturg. What hasn't changed is the show's existential ruminations or its humor. “I think that's something I love about this piece and that people might not expect,” notes Sara. “There's a lot of humor in it.” “It's Native humor,” Marcie clarifies. “I wasn't sure that anybody would get it.” A recent run-through alleviated her fears. “People did,” she says, “and that was great!” KEY CHANGE RECOMMENDED EPISODE Connections Across Time and Space: Opera in the Cosmos FEATURED IN THIS EPISODE Brent Michael Davids - Composer Marcie Rendon - Librettist Sara Jobin - Music Director Andrea Fellows Fineberg - Dramaturg and Key Change Guest Host  MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE Hidden Figures Minnesota Children's Museum Red Eye Theater Clue  Christopher Hitchens Key Change is a production of The Santa Fe Opera, Department of Community Engagement & Education.

Red Rising fans are torn on whether book one or book two - "Golden Son" - are the better story. The Busy Girls are in agreement, though. What was sort of like "Game of Thrones" is now an outer space adventure and no character is safe. Video: https://youtu.be/yIzRCosoZLw

Tout ce que vous avez voulu savoir sur le genre littéraire du Steampunk avec l'essayiste Arthur Morgan, auteur de l'essai A Toute vapeur ! Le Steampunk en question. Coup de rétro sur le Steampunk Plébiscité depuis les année 2000 par les communautés numériques mais aussi par le fandom de l'imaginaire, le genre du Steampunk fêtera bientôt ses 40 ans. Lancé en 1987 par trois romanciers de fantasy et de science-fiction (James Blaylock, Tim Powers et K.W. Jeter), le terme steampunk (« punk à vapeur ») désigne des aventures naviguant entre les genres de l'imaginaire dans la révolution industrielle de l'époque victorienne. Inspiré par les oeuvres de Mary Shelley, Jules Verne et HG Wells mais aussi par d'autres oeuvres télévisuelles comme Les Mystères de l'Ouest ou graphique Le Démon des Glaces de Tardi, ce genre qui ne cesse d'évoluer avait déjà une proto-existence avant de connaître une définition. Arthur Morgan revient dans notre podcast sur les influences et l'évolution du Steampunk mais aussi sur la sympathique communauté des vaporistes. Hébergé par Ausha.

How should we relate to the more fantastic elements in Confederation philosophy like contact with extraterrestrial entities, the effects of the pyramid structure, and UFOs/UAPs? How do we know what's real? Is any of it required study for our spiritual progress? What role does it play in our lives, our faith in the Creator, and ability to polarize and serve others? Jamie Liestman joins Jeremy to discuss how seekers might work with these less philosophical parts of the philosophy, recounting their personal experiences with the sublime, the supernatural, and where service fits into that.Note: My audio is not as good as it could be, I'm out of practice setting levels.
