Chapter 5: Epilogue

The day after.

Aubrey, Stacie, and Bella brought Beca and Chloe's little ones home. Stacie and Aubrey can tell Chloe is moving rather "gingerly". Bella and Sophie found the family dog, Buster, playing with a "pink chew toy". Beca is desperate to get to it before Stacie does...

Just a normal day in the Mitchell-Beale household :))

Buster Bros. Collection (PS1)

I used to hate this look but I think I’ve come around on it, I think they perfectly intentionally did the pre-rendered thing for this sort of over-the-top goofy effect. ^ _^

in a complete fantasy world whwre your reboot gets made, full length and complete creative control, what meduim would you pick? 3d animation, 2d, live action...?

OUGHDHHDHHFGDHHDHH DID DHDHHDHDHHEHEHHDHEHEHEJWJWOW

the ideal animation style to me would be something similar to into the spiderverse where it meshes comic book aspects with animation, as an ode to mirage & because i think comic books are sort of like. a grand representation of childhood. colorful and creative and clever and full of dreamer ideals and such. i can’t quite describe it well but comics always seem like a good representation of being a kid. and that’s what this story is about, at its core- four brothers being kids who happen to save the world, but more importantly, each other. plus, it’s really a comic-esque adventure- it’s introspective in nature but it IS very much an action series. there’s a bazillion fight scenes. i think incorporating comic book aspects (framing, little sound effects, etc) during fight scenes is SO COOL.

i think 3-d where it’s also treated as 2-d, where they’re not afraid to get a little wacky, is SUPER fun. i honestly really liked the tmnt2012 models, at least for the turtles- they remained super expressive, unique, and the fighting sequences were fucking AWESOME. my only complaint was that because they had a limited budget New York, the city that never sleeps, always looked so empty (and i also think some of the human models were a little meh). so like if 3d was done i don’t want the background of things to always be so barren; i like that rise has a lot of shots of new york where it looks like it’s bustling with life and i want to be certain that not only are the characters well animated, but their environment is ALSO well cared for and detailed. so if the series had the budget transformers prime did and the materials and care and live to do it justice, then i think a strong 3-d style that mimicked a comic book would be my complete ideal

but if we had to be realistic, 2D would be the way to go. i just don’t really think 3D kids animation is all that great (like im not really impressed with miraculous ladybug, for example) which is fair, because it’s a limited budget over the course of many episodes. i think 2d, probably a similar cartoon style to either Steven universe/adventure time or an anime-esque look would be good enough for me! i do so love 2-d

#master emerald brothel #UGHHGGGGHHH i stare longingly at block busters like spiderverse & puss in boots & mitchells (?) vs the machines #SO GOOD. i’d love a whole tv show of that animation #also transformers prime had the best cgi animation i’d ever seen in a show and it still holds up to this day #the DETAILING of like scratched paint and the lighting and the expressions . HOLY GRAIL OF ANIMATION RIGHT THERE #anyway. yearning.#mirrored mutation

Vaudevisuals interview with Lee Andrews ~ 'Academy of Clown Arts'.

Vaudevisuals interview with Lee Andrews ~ ‘Academy of Clown Arts’.

Beginning in 2011 a small group of dedicated professional clowns gathered and created a place where anyone interested in clowning could come and study. The Academy of Clown Arts is now in its 11th year and this summer it will be at it again with over 20 professionals to teach and guide the inspired clowns of tomorrow. Lee Andrews heads up the Academy of Clown Arts. I had a nice talk with him…

A compendium of references to Portugal in Japanese video games

The beginning of the historical relations between Portugal and Japan dates to the year 1541, when a Portuguese ship washed ashore at Jingujiura. Nearly sixty Japanese words are of Portuguese origin. A variety of Japanese traditions and culinary delights were introduced by Portuguese traders, sailors and missionaries. But in what way has this cultural exchange extended to the more recent phenomenon of Japanese digital games? As a portuguese devotee of Japanese culture, the topic seemed relevant enough to merit some additional exploration.

To my knowledge, the first significant reference to Portugal in Japanese video game is found in Koei's The Age of Discovery from 1990, a game published in the west under the title Uncharted Waters. The main character is a disgraced Portuguese nobleman named Leon Ferrero who resorts to maritime exploration, trade and naval warfare to restore his family's good name and prestige.

Its 1993 sequel, known in the west as New Horizons, diversifies the base game structure of the original by including multiple characters to select from, each with their own story and mission. Among them is the tale of João Franco, the son of the original episode's protagonist Leon, who sets out to discover the mysterious location of the fabled Atlantis, no less.

Another meaningful reference can be found a year later in ArtDink's 1991 strategy game The Atlas, in which the player takes on the role of a 15th century explorer with a five year contract with the King of Portugal to discover and chart lands around the Iberian Peninsula.

In 1998, ArtDink recreated the game for contemporary systems and published as Neo Atlas. The protagonist is a Portuguese trading company owner seeking business expansion opportunities in remote territories, as well as discover and chart hitherto unknown parts of the globe. A similar premise is found in a later sequel, Neo Atlas III.

Apart from nautical strategy games, a few other titles exist where mentions to the Portuguese territory, language and culture can be traced.

Atlus' futuristic vision of Earth in Maken X includes a most unexpected tour of Europe, with a mandatory stop in Lisbon. Inexplicably, the developers got its geographic location wrong and moved to all the way to the northern Spanish region of Léon. The level, itself, boasts a reasonably accurate depiction of one of the city's oldest quarters, Alfama, and the architectural styles found therein.

Although I could not discern any actual references in the game itself, the Grandia II soundtrack by the veteran composer Noriyuki Iwadare contains two themes whose lyrics are written in Portuguese: A Deus, a double-entendre that can be translated to both farewell and to God; and Canção do Povo, meaning People's Song. Also, the name of the official soundtrack is named Melodia, which translates to Melody as you'd expect. Both themes were performed by guest singer Kaori Kawasumi, who took on the composer's challenge to sing them despite her not knowing the language.

She was coached and assisted by José Álvarez and Motoi Sato from the Portuguese Arts and Culture Center in Japan, whom she thanks in the acknowledgement section. The Grandia II Special Package edition booklet contains a page with two photos of Portugal, one for the Jéronimos Monastery in Lisbon and the other, seemingly, for the Moorish Castle in the nearby town of Sintra.

The last Pomping World (a.ka. Buster Bros/Pang) that Mitchell Corporation ever produced before shutting down was the 2010 DS European exclusive Magical Michael. It includes two levels set in Portugal, one in Lisbon by the Belém tower, a nautical landmark, and the other in the Sintra National Palace. Their representation is at once pleasingly stylized and true to life.

This final reference is found in Spike Chunsoft's third installment of their successful visual novel series, Nyūdanganronpa V3 Minna No Koroshiai Shin Gakki. Among the dozens of MonoMono machine items that can be acquired, one is a weathercock styled after a traditional Portuguese folktale hero, the Galo de Barcelos, meaning the rooster of Barcelos, a town in Northern Portugal.

As per the description, this animal became famous through an age-old tale involving a man wrongly sentenced to death who seconds before his execution remarked he was as certain to be innocent as it was certain that a nearby rooster would sing. Because the bird did crow, much to everyone's amazement, he was exonerated. Thus, the black rooster became a symbol for truth.

I would like to thank @diogojira and @DanielOlimac for their assistance in making this article possible.

Storia Di Musica #311 - Emily Remler, East To Wes, 1988

Il filo che lega le storie di musica di Febbraio me lo ha dato la radio: qualche giorno fa in un programma mattutino di Virgin Radio, alla domanda della presentatrice "cosa vorresti fare per diventare famoso?" una ascoltatrice ha risposto "vorrei diventare una virtuosa della chitarra, perchè non ve ne sono di famose". La presentatrice ha ribattuto che non era affatto vero, ma l'unico nome che le venne in mente al momento è quello di Sister Rosetta Tharpe, cantante e chitarrista statunitense, pioniera della musica gospel e conosciuta anche con il nomignolo di Madrina del Rock'n'Roll: sulle qualità storiche e tecniche di Rosetta Tharpe niente da dire, ma non è tra i primi nomi che vengono in mente pensando alla chitarra rock in generale. Il mio spirito da piccolo filologo musicale tende a dire che l'ascoltatrice avesse ragione, cioè che vi sono pochissime chitarriste famose, che allo stesso tempo non vuol dire che non vi siano state straordinarie chitarriste nella storia della musica. Per questo, ricordando che in questa rubrica già si è parlato di chitarriste (la sublime Joni Mitchell, le Runaways di Joan Jett e Lita Ford tra le altre), le storie di musica di questo mese verteranno su grandiose chitarriste.

Per iniziare ho scelto una storia emblematica di uno dei problemi di essere musiciste in un mondo, quello della musica pop, che è sempre stato per lo più maschilista: "Così tanti leader di gruppi mi hanno detto in faccia che non potevano assumermi perché ero una donna", lo diceva, in una intervista al magazine People nel 1982 una grandiosa musicista, Emily Remler. Originaria del New Jersey, la sua vita cambia quando ha 10 anni: al fratello maggiore venne regalata una chitarra, una Gibson Es 330 rossa, che Emily ogni tanto strimpellava. Si capì subito che riusciva a memorizzare i suoni e le veniva naturale suonarla, tanto che anni dopo fu ammessa al prestigioso Berklee College of Music di Boston, che è la scuola di musica più grande del mondo, i cui illustri ex alunni hanno vinto oltre 300 Grammy Awards. Si diploma a 18 anni, si appassiona al jazz e inizia a suonare nei locali. Nel 1978 va a New Orleans, dà lezioni, suona in pubblico in ogni occasione che trova, si mette deliberatamente in situazioni che la spingono a dare il massimo e a migliorarsi. Fa di tutto per incontrare quanti più musicisti può. Tra questi, nel 1978, incrocia Herb Ellis, che diventerà il suo mentore (gli dedicherà un bellissimo brano, di chitarra solo, di cui parlerò tra poco). Grazie a lui inizia ad essere una richiestissima sessionista, pubblica il primo disco da solista, Firefly del 1981 (in copertina una sua splendida foto con la chitarra rossa del fratello, strumento che non abbandonerà mai), partecipa alle musiche di un grande musical, Sophisticated Ladies, con le musiche di Duke Ellington e tra le cose più belle che vive c'è la sua partecipazione ai tour di Astrud Gilberto che le aprono le porte delle musiche sudamericane e caraibiche. Nel 1981 sposa il pianista Monty Alexander, con il quale farà un favoloso tour insieme prima di divorziare nel 1984. Remler è una grandiosa musicista, con un senso innato del tempo e della ritmica, e ha un carattere forte e lucido: nella stessa intervista a People disse "Posso sembrare una ragazzina carina del New Jersey. Ma dentro sono un uomo nero ben piazzato di 50 anni con un gran pollice, come Wes Montgomery».

E proprio il grande chitarrista di Indianapolis è il faro della musica di Emily. Gli dedica questo disco, del 1988, suonando insieme a tre colossi colossi, Hank Jones al piano (uno dei grandi pianisti del jazz, e passato alla storia anche perchè suonava lui il piano di accompagnamento quando Marylin Monroe cantò Happy Birthday Mr President nel 1962 a JFK), Buster Williams al contrabasso (che suonò nel gruppo di Herbie Hancock e nel gruppo Sphere specializzato nelle musiche di Thelonious Monk) e Marvin "Smitty" Smith, come lei allievo della Berklee e batterista per grandi musicisti, nonchè batterista della band dello show di Jay Leno per 14 anni. East To Wes è un tributo atipico, perchè Remler non riprende in toto brani famosi di Montgomery, ma ne sceglie alcuni che suona "come li avrebbe suonati lui", con la famosa maestria del suo pollice: leggenda vuole che Montgomery, che di giorno lavorava in fabbrica e la sera imparava a suonare la chitarra, per non disturbare moglie e vicini non suonava con il plettro, ma con il pollice, una delle caratteristiche che resero il suo suono unico e distinguibile per sempre.

Nel disco prodotto da Carl Jefferson, fondatore della Concord Records che era specializzata in famose chitarre jazz, Remler sceglie un repertorio memorabile, composto da standard e da tre sue composizioni. Tra gli standard, riprese spettacolari di Hot House di Tad Cameron (è stata la prima chitarrista a proporre il brano per chitarra jazz), uno dei picchi dell'era be-bop, Daahoud di Clifford Brown (una delle grandi promesse del jazz, morto nel 1956 in un incidente stradale a soli 25 anni), Snowfall, uno dei più grandi standard del jazz, scritta nel 1941 da Claude Thornhill e una ripresa di Softly, As In A Morning Sunrise dal musical New Moon di Sigmund Romberg (musiche) e Oscar Hammerstein II (testo). C'è anche una versione strumentale di Sweet Georgie Fame di Blossom Dearie, che nella sua versione originale aveva il testo scritto da Sandra Harris, e la canzone è una dedica alla cantante jazz inglese Georgie Fame, una canzone scritta da donne per una donna. Tra le proprie composizioni, tre gemme: Blues For Herb, dedicata all'amicizia con Herb Harris suo mentore, una Ballad For A Music Box e la canzone, delicato e sentito omaggio al suo mito, East To Wes. Il disco è un gioiello, consacrato anche dalla critica, uno degli apici creativi del talento di Remler.

Un talento che si è sempre scontrato con un grave problema: la sua dipendenza dall'eroina. Dipendenza che fu la causa, drammatica, di un attacco di cuore mentre era in tour in Australia nel 1990 che si porta via un talento della chitarra jazz a soli 32 anni. Una chitarrista fenomenale, che amava dire: Quando suono, non so se sono una ragazza, o un ragazzo, un cane, un gatto o altro. Sto solo suonando. Quando scendo dal palco, è lì che la gente mi ricorda che sono una donna.

Aca-spells (and other witchcraft)

eolhceB143

Chp 1/? Words 1820

Beca and Chloe relax after a wonderful night trick-or-treating with their twins. After hearing noise from the girl's bedroom, Beca is sent to corral their "monsters". She is roped into telling a "scary story". Beca Mitchell is one hell of an aca-storyteller...

To quote Aubrey Posen - "I'm going to haunt her aca-dreams. And you're about to become an aca-widow, Chlo!

The title could very well be 'The First Time the Magic Yellow Cup saved Princess Rebeca'. This is going to be the first in my Magic Yellow Cup series.
