Equally at home with landscape art, psychological experiments, policy making and planning, the author brings us a step closer to understanding how our experience of city and country life can and should be improved. Unique in scope, the book dovetails concepts, methods and practice from disciplines as varied as architecture, art history, biology, environmental studies, forestry, geography, landscape design, law, literature, philosophy, psychology and urban planning. This is the first comprehensive account of the new interdiscipline of environmental aesthetics. Discussing the psychology of human-environment relations and the influences of literary, legal and artistic activism, the author concludes with an analysis of the essential roles of public policy and planning. ![]() The book traces the history of aesthetic thought and practice, examining basic aesthetic concepts and the resultant implementation of aesthetic policy in the landscape. 2 ENVIRONMENTAL AESTHETICS Why have our public environments become ugly wastelands or banal blandscapes? How important is an aesthetically pleasing public environment to personal well-being? Environmental Aesthetics explores the contributions made by a wide variety of disciplines to the conceptualization, conservation and design of environmental beauty in cities, rural areas and wilderness in the Western world.

![]() One week before his mixtape We Love You Tecca 2 is slated for release, Tecca opened his set with a throwback to his first WLYT tape with “Did It Again.” It’s a unique opportunity for an artist that’s still a teenager to evoke nostalgia out of a crowd with their music, but Tecca has been in his bag for more than three years now. Summer smash □□ /9Y1yA31Nhm- glaive AugLil Teccaġ8-year old rap phenom Lil Tecca gave the penultimate performance at the SPKRBX stage on Friday’s set list. Ultimately, Glaive stole the show Friday - and rightfully so. Performing “1984,” “bastard,” “detest me” and more, Glaive’s intimately raw vocals were perfect for Lenny’s confined space, as the North Carolina native’s set was swarmed with fans from the rail to the back patches of grass. After all, he’s a kid at heart, and seeing him perform a lights out set filled with charisma and candor further proved his place among the new wave’s most talented artists. Off the back of releasing his debut project all dogs go to heaven, Glaive seemed in his element performing - hopping up on speakers, letting loose and connecting with the audience in a unique way. With a crowd of a few hundred, Glaive certainly left a presence at Summer Smash. “I was terrified that no one would show up… but F*CK!” said the 16-year-old star Glaive walking out on stage at Lenny’s Tent. His stage presence and performance were stellar, as Kenji strives to become one of the new wave’s brightest stars on his way to the top.Ī post shared by Our Generation Music □ Glaive With a few hundred fans in attendance, Kenji ignited moshpits with tracks in “IM RICH NOW BITCH,” “Save Me,” “INSANE,” “Kill Cupid” and more. Along with performing at Rolling Loud and HIVE Festival earlier this summer, Kenji bolstered his rockstar persona further by taking the stage at Lenny’s Tent with refined poise and energy.

Merch tents scattered throughout the park, as an arcade, hundreds of vendors and Cole’s signature Lyrical Lemonade brought forth an overall enjoyable experience. The SPKRBX and Lyrical Lemonade stages both allowed for bigger acts to thrive with more open space, while Lenny’s Tent provided an intimate setting for lesser known acts to go crazy with their fans. Thanks to Cole Bennet’s artistic vision, Summer Smash saw a huge turnout ready to turn up at every stage. love you all- Cole Bennett August 23, 2021 ![]() learned a lot this weekend and I’m thankful for that. there are a lot of areas to improve on and we are excited to grow and get better in these areas. it was amazing to see everyone back together.

And he smells good, too.”īryce Dallas Howard, Netflix’s “Black Mirror”: “I have been in the past plagued by terrible, constant nightmares that range from ‘Walking Dead’ to ‘Black Mirror.’ I’ve actually done hypnosis to try to get read of these dreams. “He’s the meaning of the word ‘gentleman,'” says Taylor-Johnson. If it seems like a Tom Ford world is too beautiful to be true, consider that he actually lives it. Becoming one of the few self-defined filmmakers of this generation is no small feat, especially for a man who also continues to create headlines in the notoriously fickle fashion industry. When Adams tells me her character “lives in a very Tom Ford world,” I know exactly what she means. With only two films under his belt, Ford has already established his own cinematic signature. “It wasn’t in my comfort zone.” Though he is known for playing the introspective nice guy (even as a superhero in Kick-Ass) Taylor-Johnson’s Ray Marcus is, as he puts it, “this very charming, charismatic, magnetic guy who’s unpredictable and therefore really dangerous.” But Ford’s casting is never without purpose and, given the range offered by a character who’s unbounded by reality, the director’s endorsement could add new dimensions to Taylor-Johnson’s IMDb page in the future. ![]() “The role, for me, was really quite challenging,” Taylor-Johnson admits. This time around, Adams is joined by Jake Gyllenhaal, Michael Shannon and Aaron Taylor-Johnson, who portrays one of the characters imagined by Adams’s Susan. It’s hard to go wrong with Colin Firth and Julianne Moore, whom he cast for A Single Man, but in that film he also helped broker Nicholas Hoult’s transformation from that hot guy in the UK teen show “Skins” to one of Hollywood’s most sought after young actors. “It was fun to get to create this vulnerable, emotional person within this veneer of perfection.”įord is right to trust his actors his casting has been masterful. Juxtaposed against Ford’s impossibly beautiful universe, Adams’s raw performance is even more enthralling. “ has this attention to detail that is, as of course we all know, very meticulous and exquisite, but he was able to take that attention to detail, execute that and let us play in this very amazing world he created,” Adams says. It’s a complex, demanding role, and Ford, despite his exacting methods, leaves it in the capable hands of his star. As we bounce between Susan’s past, present and even the depths of her imagination, she gradually becomes undone. That woman, Susan, is a gallery owner played by Amy Adams, who finds herself wrapped up in a novel, written by her ex-husband, which appears to be a chilling metaphor for the dissolution of their marriage. Adapted from Austin Wright’s 1993 novel Tony and Susan, the film weaves together two unsettling narratives to paint a haunting portrait of a middle-aged woman in turmoil. ![]() For all the style, however, substance is not sacrificed. With Nocturnal Animals, which screened at the Toronto International Film Festival this week, the designer-cum-director solidifies his singular directorial vision, with each frame meticulously aestheticized and surreal flashbacks and daydreams par for the course. We may not have to wait to get our hands on Tom Ford’s latest collection - the decadent designs were available immediately following his splashy show at New York Fashion Week - but he certainly made us wait long enough for a follow-up to A Single Man, his acclaimed directorial debut from 2009. ![]() They verify tickets or passes, provide change when necessary, and ensure proper fare collection.
On October 23, 2009, this was replaced by Beta 3, which has the option to use dual players, a camera, trapdoor and deceleration lines. It includes a new feature that allows people to send tracks to other people via Windows Messenger. On July 1, 2008, the original Flash version was replaced by a new one written in Silverlight. In order to allow public viewing, the user must be logged into the website server. The storage is not on the Line Rider website, but on the user's hard drive, therefore allowing maximum storage implication and quicker access to stored tracks. The game does allow created tracks to be saved, and shown to the public (only if creator wishes to do so). Revision 6.2 of Line Rider was released in August 2007, and was optimized to run more smoothly, and to have a higher-powered zoom tool. Tracks are typically shared among users by uploading a video to websites, such as YouTube or Google Video. Others use background art to fill their tracks with hand-drawn mountain slopes and trees. Many tracks created by the community have been set to music, such as the video This Will Destroy You, timed completely to the entire self titled This Will Destroy You album. New tracks can consist of unrealistic tricks such as "flings" and "manuals" both on and off the sled. In spite of its simplicity, many complicated tracks have been created, which include loops and other stunts. The author has said that he prefers the description "toy" to "game", as there is no goal to accomplish, nor does it have an end. The game includes simulated physics, which means the track must be sufficiently smooth to prevent the character from falling off the sled. ![]() The basic concept is to draw one or more lines with the mouse on which a boy (referred to as "Bosh" by the creator ) on a sled can ride after the player presses the "Play" button. ![]() A two-page article about the game was published in Games for Windows: The Official Magazine. Line Rider was also selected by staff and voted by Jay is Games users to be the Best Webtoy of 2006. Line Rider received coverage from several outlets, such as Yahoo!, Time Magazine and appeared in several McDonald's commercials for the Snack Wrap in 2008. Soon after its initial appearance on DeviantArt, Line Rider became an internet phenomenon. It was originally created in September 2006 by Boštjan Čadež (also known as "fšk"), a Slovenian student. Line Rider is a browser game or software toy, with versions available for Microsoft Silverlight, Javascript, Windows, and Flash. ![]() As you quest through Zuldazar, High Prelate Rata tells you: ![]() Zandalari Prelates worshipped Rezan, the loa of kings.

If I have to switch computers for her to complete her work, she may as well use the 2nd one that works. I would like the teacher to wave the games if she simply completes more learning exercises, but that’s not how the grades are calculated. With my troubleshooting, she can now do all of the learning parts (90% of her schoolwork), but the games won’t play. Not sure if it’s EME restrictions, or if Google just wants you to buy their Chromebooks and force the apps to optimize for ChromeOS and crippling ChromiumOS intentionally.Īlso to note – bluetooth and wifi worked out of the box. Her school uses the Clever service for Imagine Learning and Dreambox apps.Īfter a day or two of installing webGL fixes and digging through SO, I’ve given up. I purchased a Raspberry Pi 400 for my daughter’s home schooling. No, you won’t get the simplicity and security that a Chromebook offers but you will get a low-cost capable computing experience. For students who are borrowing a parent’s computer or simply don’t have a computing device available to them, I’d say the Raspberry Pi 400 would be $100 well spent. In fact, I use one for my college classes now.īut I already had that Chromebook. Would I rather have a Chromebook for learning at home? Sure, I would. The Pi 400 has a few USB ports on the back so you can connect cameras or other peripherals. Note that the Raspberry Pi 400 doesn’t have a webcam, so for video classes, you’ll need to add one. And as long as you basically ignore all of the other apps, you’ll get a Chrome OS-like experience. Once these commands have completed, you should have the Chromium browser on the Raspberry Pi, where you can sign in to Google upon first launch. ![]() You open up the Terminal application on the Pi and then type these two commands, pressing enter after each one to let it do its thing. It’s relatively easy to manually download and install Chromium though. So I’m not sure you can install Chromium through a native app store on the Pi 400. I haven’t connected to my Raspberry Pi 4 in a while because it’s running as a HomeAssistant smart home server. You miss out on a few features, but you gain a big one: Synchronization of Chrome bookmarks, stored passwords, web apps, and other items that make switching between Chromebooks super easy. However, you can also download and install the Chromium browser, which is the open-source version that Google adds on to for Chrome and Chrome OS. That will get students to their online classroom documentation whether it’s hosted on services by Google, Microsoft or any other company. And while the software on the Pi 400 comes pre-installed with the Mozilla Firefox browser. For online learning with a Chromebook-like experience, you just need a browser. That adds some complexity but most of it can be ignored. Instead, it runs a custom distribution of Linux. It’s actually not that complicated, even though the Raspberry Pi 400 isn’t running Google’s Chrome OS. So how would you use it similarly to a Chromebook for school? And it will be supported and produced through January 2026, so your $100 will be a good investment over time. The $70 model is really for folks who already have the cables and power supply to run a Pi presumably, someone who owns a Pi.Įven for $100 with everything you need, minus the monitor, this is far less expensive than any recent Chromebook that you could find in stock right now. You can also get a $100 bundle that adds a matching mouse, power supply, cables, pre-installed software on a microSD card, and a Beginners Guide book. You simply connect it to a compatible monitor, add a mouse, power it up and you’ve got a basic computer. I’ve read reports about school districts and parents that can’t find a Chromebook for their kid’s remote school learning during the COVID-19 situation.įrankly, the Raspberry Pi 400 could suffice as a low-cost substitute.įirst, a quick description of what the Raspberry Pi 400 is.Įssentially, it’s an all-in-one computer that runs on a slightly upgraded Raspberry Pi 4 tucked inside the thin keyboard. I’m making a rare exception today because the just announced Raspberry Pi 400 computer starts at just $70 and because Chromebook inventory is so low. I normally don’t write about non-Chromebook devices here. |
