![]() ![]() The song is a triumphant embrace of the nihilistic idea that life only has the meaning that we give it - it is, ultimately, a road to nowhere. ("but they'll make a fool of you / and it's all right, baby it's all right".) The city he envisions that is growing day by day is the community that we build, bit by bit, as we connect with other human beings. You're invited to come travel the road to nowhere, to help him sing this song, and fuck the haters. I've always understood this song to be about life and the meaning we find in it through the meaningful connections - friends, family, loved ones - that we make along the way. I, uh, somehow never made this connection? It's obvious now, reading the lyrics: the road to paradise, the "city in my mind" is Heaven/the afterlife, "it's very far away / but it's growing day by day", the repeated assurances that it's alright, etc. Sing an arms-open paean to the inevitability of death. This article on the recording of Little Creatures, with a specific focus on Road to Nowhere, is a superb insight into Eric Thorngren’s techniques and thought processes and is very much worth a read: Whatever the truth, the effect is an instantly memorable opening, with the intimate-but-strong gospel choir - augmented by at least 3 different vocal tracks from Byrne - combining to sing an arms-open paen to the inevitability of death. However, years later in an interview album engineer Eric Thorngren also implied that he was the clever one to have suggested the choral opening. Yet the arrangement never feels cluttered or overblown, with each individual contribution perfectly integrated.ĭavid Byrne has stated more than once that, shamed and/or embarrassed that his song was ‘only 2 chords’ (there are actually five chords, but the E and the C#minor do get a good work out) he tacked on the gospel-style choir part which opens the song and serves it so effectively as a scene-setter. The recording manages to find parts for no less than 5 backing vocalists (with Jerry Harrison and Tina Weymouth further adding their voices to the mix), 2 additional percussionists (Talking Heads stalwart Steve Scales on tambourine, and Andrew Cader’s washboard), a horn chart from Lenny Pickett and an accordian part originally suggested by Harrison and performed by Jimmy Macdonell (Macdonell’s playing in particular adds much in terms of the song’s colour and character). Road to Nowhere is an optimal example of a well-loved late-career Talking Heads song that manages to combine critical acclaim with commercial appeal. ![]() ![]() The weight of critical opinion decrees that Talking Heads entered an irreversible period of decline after the exhausting triumph of their Stop Making Sense tour/film - but Road to Nowhere emphatically refutes that assertion. I rank them pretty high overall.ġ0: Masterpiece, magnum opus, or similar terminology. I enjoy it quite a bit.Ĩ-9: Really enjoyable songs.

Red: Red is a colour associated with blood, war, strength, bravery, hardiness, bloodshed, revolution and Communism. Not that a charge or insignia in no way has to be symmetrical, but the field and basic design should be, whether horizontally or vertically. Symmetry: A symmetrical flag is a good flag, as it encourages simplicity. Look to the flag of the Central African Republic, which is so complicated and colourful that it is known to induce Epileptic fits. Note that over-complicated insignia on a flag can also do the same thing. They reduce the memorability of a flag, and thus reduce its efficacy. Some forms can be used, most notably on the flag of Saudi Arabia, with the Shahada.Ĭolours: Beware of too many colours on a flag, as they can often be unnecessary, and over-complicate a design. It also provides problems for repeating the flag's design on the reverse of the flag. Text: Text on a flag is discouraged, as it makes the flag messy, over complicated, and non-symmetrical. This helps keep the flag sensible and eye-catching. A metal is either gold, silver or white, and could not touch another metal, just as two colours could not touch. A 'colour' and a 'metal' were the two main colour components. Heraldry: Heraldic rules apply to Coats of Arms and occasionly to flags in general. 1:2 ratio indicates a flag twice as wide as it is high.

Ĭharge: An emblem or insignia that is added onto the flag's basic design.Heraldry was the art of producing and recording Coats of Arms in the middle ages and had strict rules, and as such flags developed in a very unique way in Europe, and also makes states without heraldry, typically outside Europe, the ability to make far more complex flags.Ĭanton: Any quarter of a flag, but most often refers to the top-left quarter of the flag. Most flags in the modern world are now designed to the rules of heraldry, or the rules of Coats of Arms. Soon, the Arabs developed what we would call a true flag, as it was attached to a vertical pole at the hoist. For example, the Vexillum, was used by Roman cavalry, and gave its name to the study of flags. Each unit of the Roman army had cloth banners, with the insignia of the unit stitched on them. Flags were later adopted by such peoples as the Ancient Greeks and Romans, whereupon the Romans popularised them, as they made most use of these. cloth banners, are from China, used for identifying Chinese armies.

According to the official webpage for the opera, "Klingon opera uses the principle of musical combat. Henri van Zanten, the Master of the ScreamĪs depicted in Star Trek, the Klingons are passionate opera lovers. As Klingon characters became more important in later Star Trek films and television series, Okrand continued to expand the language, and it has become a spoken language with a number of fluent speakers. Okrand designed the language to sound "alien", using a number of typologically uncommon features. The producers hired linguist Marc Okrand for the sequels to expand this into a full-fledged language with its own unique vocabulary, grammar, and idioms. He created some harsh-sounding words to be spoken by Klingon characters. The Klingon language was first conceived by actor James Doohan, who played Montgomery Scott ("Scotty") in the original Star Trek television series, for Star Trek: The Motion Picture (1979). The premiere of the opera in The Hague on 10 September 2010 was a success, and the opera has been revived since then. ![]() The story of ʼuʼ is based on the epic legend of " Kahless the Unforgettable", a messianic figure in the history of the fictional Klingon species. It was composed by Eef van Breen to a libretto by Kees Ligtelijn and Marc Okrand under the artistic direction of Floris Schönfeld. ʼuʼ (, beginning and ending with a glottal stop) is the first opera in the Klingon language, billed as "The first authentic Klingon opera on Earth".

They are carried to sea as scout craft aboard a ship where they are prepared for diving by high skilled technicians. Submersibles on the other hand are not so independent. They can provide all the necessary protection and supplies for the crew. ![]() Submarines are able to function and carry people at sea completely by themselves working under their own power. Now the difference in nautical types here between a submersible and a submarine is in their size and power. It’s a 23 feet long, weighs 17 tons and can dive to 14,800 feet, which is more than the depth of the Titanic which is 12,500 feet down. Ballard used a submersible to explore the wreck called Alvin, which has been in service since 1964. He had discovered it while on a separate exploration of two lost US Navy submarines using sonar equipment that he had developed. That expedition was led by Doctor Robert Ballard who had also found it on the same expedition. The first exploration dive to the Titanic was in 1986, a year after it’s discovery. Deep sea exploration is not something for the faint hearted and the effectiveness of their experimental Titan submersible proves it. However I do not hold in high regard the company OceanGate for their tourism enterprise to give rich people risky visits to the wreck. I was shocked to hear about the demise of the submersible and the death of crew, for which I hold them in my thoughts and I give my condolences to their families. My interest in the Titanic has been revived following the recent disaster of the Titan submersible that imploded as it descended to the wreck with five adventurous sightseers. It is a hallmark of my passion for adventure and discovery and I even have my own ambitions to visit the wreck of the Titanic some day. ![]() I have admired these with great enthusiasm from watching them on TV and film in the format of dramas and documentaries. What I find fascinating about it is the stories of the people who travelled aboard the ship and the engineering marvel that it is. I have been a big Titanic geek and I have owned models and books about the ship. The Titanic is the most famous ship in the world and has a legendary status in the history of ocean liners. For this special Science Saturday our grand geek Charlie Keeble is covering the science of the disaster itself and his own views on the Titan submersible. For the past few weeks there has been a tragic loss of life in the Atlantic Ocean. ![]() ![]() ![]() They are excellent conversationalists too. People with this Venus sign have many interests.
