    1994 Surat Plague – A Forgotten Case Of Bioterrorism
    1994 SURAT PLAGUE

     

    The plague outbreak in the western Indian city of Surat in 1994 has been mired in controversy just as COVID-19. The origin of the outbreak is still a mystery. Indian defense establishment believes the 1994 Surat Plague is a case of bioterrorism. Numerous media outlets at the time reported the involvement of American Center of Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). It was suspected that the germ with an extra protein ring was developed by a CDC lab in Almaty, Kazakhstan.

  • Ben Kingsley In «Gandhi»

    Ben Kingsley In «Gandhi»
    Synopsis

    The screenplay of Gandhi is available as a published book. The film opens with a statement from the filmmakers explaining their approach to the problem of filming Gandhi's complex life story:
    “No man's life can be encompassed in one telling. There is no way to give each year its allotted weight, to include each event, each person who helped to shape a lifetime. What can be done is to be faithful in spirit to the record and to try to find one's way to the heart of the man...”

    The film begins with Gandhi's assassination on 30 January 1948, and his funeral. After an evening prayer, an elderly Gandhi is helped out for his evening walk to meet a large number of greeters and admirers. One of these visitors - Nathuram Godse - shoots him point blank in the chest. Gandhi exclaims, "Oh, God!" ("Hē Ram!" historically), and then falls dead. The film then cuts to a huge procession at his funeral, which is attended by dignitaries from around the world.

  • Holi

    The world is fascinating. People and cultures inspire us. Sadly, the fast paced lifestyles of our generation result in many not taking the necessary step back to soak in the existing world around us. Our goal with this film is to help viewers further appreciate and take notice of the beauty in life & culture that lies within our world...

    ...so the next time you notice something that strikes you as interesting, stop for a second, start powering on your camera, think about why it's unique, and snap the shot before you miss it. Life is extraordinary. Embrace it.

    Holi is a religious spring festival celebrated by Hindus, as a festival of colors. It is primarily observed in India and Nepal. It is observed by the minority Hindus in Bangladesh and Pakistan as well in countries with large Indic diaspora populations following Hinduism, such as Suriname, Malaysia, Guyana, South Africa, Trinidad, United Kingdom, United States, Mauritius, and Fiji.

    It is also known as Phagwah and Festival of Colours, or as Doajata in Orissa and Dol Jatra or Basantotsav ("spring festival") in West Bengal. Holi is of particular significance in the Braj region, locations traditionally connected to the Lord Krishna: Mathura, Vrindavan, Nandagaon, and Barsana, which become tourist destinations during the season of Holi.

    Holi, also known as Dhuli in Sanskrit, or Dhulheti, Dhulandi or Dhulendi, is celebrated by people throwing scented powder and perfume at each other. Bonfires are lit on the eve of the festival, also known as Holika Dahan (burning of Holika) or Chhoti Holi (little Holi), after which holika dahan prayers are said and praise is offered. The bonfires are lit in memory of the miraculous escape that young Prahlad accomplished when Demoness Holika, sister of Hiranyakashipu, carried him into the fire. Holika was burnt but Prahlad, a staunch devotee of god Vishnu, escaped without any injuries due to his devotion. Holika Dahan is referred to as Kama Dahanam in South India.

  • INDRA [Electronic, Space Ambient]

    Loading the player...

    Его музыка - проявление сознания. Осмелюсь назвать этого, на удивление малоизвестного ветерана электронной музыки - румынским Клаусом Шульцом. И вполне обоснованно, ведь INDRA, настоящее имя Дан Бозару (Dan Bozaru), c ранних лет своего творческого пути являлся сторонником ранней берлинской школы электронной музыки, ещё с 80-х вдохновляясь звучанием легендарных мастеров вроде Klaus Schulze, Pink Floyd, Vangelis, Jean-Michel Jarre.

    Слушая его ранние альбомы, начинаешь думать что это Клаус Шульц, однако в более поздних своих работах, музыкант пошел по своему пути, определяя свои уникальные вибрации и направление.

    Если попытаться дать какое-то определение музыкальному стилю ИНДРЫ, можно его воспринимать как симбиоз старой берлинской школы электроники с эмбиентом, и элементами new age.

    Музыку ИНДРЫ рекоммендуется слушать, позволив уму быть в атмосфере её звучания.

  • Istvan Sky - The Song Of The Butterfly

    The healing sound is born in a deep meditative state. Just sit in silence in nature. Let the ancient cosmic harmony probe deeply into your heart. Breathe slowly and listen to the songs of trees, plants and birds. Breathe together with spring, be the unfolding flower, breathe together with summer, with the miracle of completeness. Breathe together with autumn, with the passing of time and breathe together with the quiet stillness of winter.

  • Josh Hamilton In «Outsourced»

    Josh Hamilton In «Outsourced»
    Synopsis

    “Outsourced,” in which a Seattle call center manager named Todd (Josh Hamilton) is fired and then dispatched to India as a consultant to train his own replacement, is a wonderful surprise.

    At first it threatens to be just another fish-out-of-water story. The film’s director, John Jeffcoat, and his co-writer, George Wing, hit expected marks, from the moment when a street urchin swipes the hero’s cellphone to the bit where Todd learns why Indians don’t eat with their left hand to the scene where Todd realizes that his sharpest employee, an outspoken young woman named Asha (Ayesha Dharker), is gorgeous and has a crush on him.

    Gratifyingly, though, the filmmakers treat Todd’s story as a springboard for a smart look at the effect of cultural difference on work, friendship and love, and the global economy’s impact on national and personal identity.

    Todd, being American, has no sense of himself as an American. He has an allergic reaction to Indian culture (embodied by the intestinal distress he suffers after eating local food). He is also taken aback by Indians’ emphasis on family ties and social obligations, and they in turn are politely aghast at Todd’s disconnection from his own relatives.

    Todd’s trainee, the polite, 40-ish Puro (Asif Basra), lives with his parents and is surprised that Todd lives alone and rarely visits his own mother. He insists that Todd forgo his prearranged hotel room and stay at his home, where his mom cooks up a storm and grills Todd on why he isn’t married yet.

    Mathias мастерски гипнотично гудит, инкрустируя произведение дополнительными инструментами, настоящий амбиентый шедевральный опус.

     

    О музыке Drone (Drone Ambient):

    Для Drone характерны монотонные низкочастотные гудения, разноритмовые вибрации, создающие в сумме сплошной звуковой ландшафт (soundscape), а так же мистические и паранаучные идеи. Изначально источниками звука были электрогитары, позднее к ним прибавились природные (звуки ветра, воды) и синтезируемые звуки.

    Too Little, Too Late? India Stands Up to the CDC
    INDIA PUTS THE CDC ON NOTICE

     

    For some reason, the US CDC was secretly funding research on a highly dangerous weapons-grade biological pathogen at an under-qualified research facility in India.

    In early May, the US Centers for Disease Creation and Propaganda (CDC) announced a $3.6 million grant to “further strengthen and support the Indian government’s efforts to increase laboratory capacity for SARS-COV-2 testing.” But just days later, it was reported that the grant may be delayed because the CDC was placed on a “watch list” by the Indian Ministry of Home Affairs last December.

    Wait, what? The Indian government placed the CDC on a “watch list” last year? Why?
