Le donne della musica classica

Multimedia   05.12.16  

La playlist del New York Times con opere di musica classica composte esclusivamente da donne; compositrici straordinarie troppo spesso eclissate dai colleghi uomini.

HIS MONTH AT the Metropolitan Opera, audiences can see and hear, for the first time there in over a century, an opera composed by a woman — Kaija Saariaho's "L'Amour de Loin." The milestone is shocking — and it can be explained, if not fully justified.

La nascita di South Park

Multimedia   25.11.16  

Iniziò tutto con una storia sul Natale e i regali. Enterteinment racconta la genesi della serie che ha ammazzato Kenny.

Matt and I were at the University of Colorado at Boulder [in 1992]. When you're in the film school, you're working on someone's film every weekend, so you're spending your weekends on set. Matt and I would always end up either running cameras or running sound or something. Shoots are so f--king boring, and we would just sit there doing voices for each other—that's where it actually started. We would always talk like these little kids and make each other laugh. So we had a year of doing little skits with the voices before we shot anything. The film department showed student films at the end of the semester. I was like, "There should be something Christmassy," because these screenings were a few days before Christmas. I had done one even before that, called American History, with construction paper cutouts, and I got a student award for it. So Matt and I just did this little Jesus and Frosty thing.

La canzone più rilassante del mondo

Multimedia   16.11.16  

Secondo una ricerca condotta dal dr. David Lewis-Hodgson, la canzone più rilassante del mondo è Weightless. Il brano è stato prodotto dalla band Marconi Union in collaborazione con la British Academy of Sound Therapy.

Studies found Weightless was 11 per cent more relaxing than any other song and even made many of the women "drowsy" in the lab.

It induced a 65 per cent reduction in overall anxiety and brought them to a level 35 per cent lower than their usual resting rates.

The song features guitar, piano and electronic samples of natural soundscapes.

It is pierced throughout by buddhist-like chants that induce a trance-like state.

Architettura horror

Multimedia   13.11.16  

8 film horror che hanno utilizzato l'architettura e lo sviluppo urbano per terrorizzare il pubblico.

Architecture can play an important role in good horror—dating all the way back to Horace Walpole's 1764 novel The Castle of Otranto. In cinema, the fiends tend to get all the attention, yet some of the best horror movies use environment and space as storytelling tools akin to monsters and villains. Some of these films are classics; others are relatively unknown. What unites them all, though, is that they aim to do more than just scare us—they aim to provoke thought about the built world in which we live.
