From a different angle

2010-01-01T22:31:00.001Z

This time Izabela Barber is interviewing professor Maciej Smolenski. Don't be fooled by his British accent! Maciej Smolenski was born in Poland in 1931 where his father Jozef Smolenski was working for Polish military intelligence. At the age of 8 his family fled Poland because of the World War II, the family eventually settled in England. After 35 years he was offered a post of singing professor in Royal Irish Academy of Music in Dublin. It's been 35 years since coming to Tallaght. Professor's talking about his life, opera singing career, Irish-Polish Society and the book about his father “Belina's Eighth Cavalryman” – a broad publication of Jozef Smolenski's memoirs, letters, documents and pictures. At the end professor Smolenski sings a traditional Polish Christmas carol.

On the 10th of January the Polish community in Dublin will celebrate the 18th Finale of
“Wielka Orkiestra Świątecznej Pomocy”. The Great Orchestra of Christmas Charity is the biggest and most prosperous charity organization in Poland.

AND ON THAT NOTE

2009-10-17T14:11:00.009+01:00

Radio Tallaght presenter Shane O'Fearghail from local band Caruso is in live session with singer - song writer Thom Moore from Pumpkinhead and Cork based Congolese jazz musician Niwel Tsumbu.

Thom Moore was born on December 6, 1943, in California, the third son of a heavy-equipment operating engineer from the island of Santa Catalina, off Los Angeles. His mother, who was by nature a romantic and a reader of Isak Dinesen and Lawrence Durrell, persuaded her husband to take employment in East Africa and the Middle East, so he spent his formative years in Ethiopia (1950-53) and Lebanon (1955-61).

After graduating from the American Community School in Beirut, he entered the U.S. Navy and served three years as a journalist on the staff of the Pacific Fleet commander in Pearl Harbor, Hawaii. He entered the University of California, Los Angeles, after getting out of the Navy in 1965, not soon enough to avoid service in Vietnam. He took a bachelor's degree Magna cum laude in Slavic Languages and Literatures in 1969 and a master's in 1970.

He moved to Ireland in 1971, settling near Sligo in the northwest of that country. He formed the band Pumpkinhead in 1973, performing original material and Irish traditional music. Their only recording was released in 1975, the very first release (LUN-001) of the Bothy-Band house label Mulligan, but the band itself was dissolved a year later. He then founded a new group, Midnight Well, which also recorded in Ireland with Mulligan Records (LUN-011) in 1977. Vicissitudes of various shapes and sizes ensued at this point, among them his divorce from his first wife in 1978 and the breakup of Midnight Well shortly after. He returned to California in 1979 at the behest of his manager, Paul McGuinness, but instead of furthering his musical career, he found himself an instructor of English grammar, punctuation, and vocabulary at a machine-stenographers' school in Van Nuys, a position he held until July 1987. The only explanation that suffices for this turn of affairs is that his material is probably not appropriate to most existing American markets.

Then the looming Intermediate Nuclear Forces treaty (1988) convinced him to refresh his Russian language capabilities, which he did courtesy of the U.S. Navy Reserve, after which he went to work for the newly formed On-Site Inspection Agency (OSIA) as an interpreter-escort for Soviet inspectors coming through Travis Air Force Base in northern California. But the entire period he was in California in the 1980s he was writing songs and performing weekly with an Irish-music band, Train to Sligo. One of his songs from this period, The Crooked Road (Carolina Rua), was made popular by the Irish singer Mary Black in the summer of 1989, and he decided to return to Ireland and resume his musical career in the fall of that year. Fate intervened again in the form of an offer of a job as an interpreter-inspector at the INF permanent-monitoring site in Votkinsk, a manufacturing city in the Udmurt Autonomous Republic, on the European side of the Ural Mountains in what is now once again Russia. Not wanting either to give up this opportunity to live and work in Russia nor his intention to return to music in Ireland, he spent as much as possible of his frequent time off from the Votkinsk job in music circles in Ireland.

Fate again intervened when he fell in love with and married Lyubov Gennadyevna Koroleva, a Russian interpreter-escort that he worked with, and perforce quit the restrictive circumstances of the government job, finding employment in 1993 as a professor of English at the Udmurt National University in Izhevsk. He continued this practice of working in Russia and playing music in Ireland until his removal back to Ireland with his new family in November, 1995. His creative work, which he considers more literary than musical, shows the distinctive influence of the various countries and cultures of his experience. But the most serious influence of his life has been and will always be the rich instrumental-music tradition of Ireland, upon which he bases an ever-increasing amount of his work.

Niwel is the fifth child of a family of six, born in 1982 in the Democratic Republic of Congo (ex Zaire). Growing up in Kinshasa he was a shy boy and devoted himself to school, until one day his brother Coco Ngoma brought a guitar home which he used when he played with a local band. A week later Niwel's cousin Papy Makaya who taught him his first piece on the guitar was amazed with the sixteen year old's ability to learn and play his homeland music- Soukous and Rhumba.
Three months later his schoolbag was under his bed and the guitar took its place: instead of studying he stayed up all night playing the guitar; went to school with one copybook and no pen, humming melodies and thinking of the fingering on the guitar.
Niwel's mother Georgina was crying and blaming Coco for Niwel losing path, as she thought her clever son would become an engineer or lawyer. And that's when the guitar was banned from the house. However this did not stop the seventeen year old, but opened up doors for him to go out and meet other musicians and play with them.
Niwel still did not own a guitar so he borrowed his friend's and had to climb over the back wall and sneak it into his house. He would then lock himself into his room and play for the day.
He was then introduced to Crispin Ngoy: a very talented musician who passionately taught Niwel jazz. This became a way of discovering many other types of music.
Niwel's love and passion for different kinds of music and instruments increased more and more, and so at the age of seventeen he secretly enrolled himself into a music college for a year. Niwel wanted to play the saxophone but the school only had one which was broken - this however did not stop him.
Niwel still did not have his own guitar, and after walking an hour to school, he would then walk an hour and a half to watch his friend Dju rehearsing with a jazz band, then walk two hours home, drop his schoolbag, walk another thirty minutes to borrow a guitar, and then walk a further forty minutes to Crispin's house for a jam. On school holidays he would get up in the mornings and be in Crispin's house for nine and play until the night.
Niwel moved to Ireland in 2004 where he quickly made friends with the Irish music scene. He began playing with many local bands and formed the groups Sumu, Jazzmu and Motema.
He has played on many stages- from diversity, cultural awareness and charity gigs- to both the Cork and Bray Jazz Festivals, the Festival of World Cultures in Dun Laoghaire 2005, and the Spiegeltent for the last two years in Cork.
Niwel has supported the likes of Kila, The Wailers, Horace Andy from Massive Attack, and Cameroon virtuoso bass player Richard Bona as part of the Bulmers World Music Festival in Cork.

For starters this program hears from Richard Burton who is a nutritional therapist based in Bray. Richard explains how important diet and lifestyle are in staying healthy and explains that our genes perhaps aren’t as important in determining health as was once thought. Richard gives us some basic tips on what plants to grow in the garden that are healthy for us to eat. Richard is a director and founder of The Irish Institute of Nutrition and Health which is a clinic and also a college offering courses in the field of holistic nutrition. www.iinh.net
Richard’s interview establishes one of the pillars of this series in terms of thinking of food as medicine and not just something tasty to fill a big hungry void.
So go and buy some seeds instead of pills!
If you just want to hear Richard Burton’s piece: Richard Burton, Nutritional Therapist
Then for the main course we visit FEAST which is a “growing, cooking and eating project” happening in St Annes School, Fettercairn in Tallaght.

Scarecrow Disco

Scarecrow Disco is the new name chosen for Dublin Rock and Roll band The Murder of Crows. After being together since school, and playing lots of gigs to lots of friends, they realized that the music had changed so much that it needed a new outlook, and a new name. Since the start of this year, the band has been experimenting, writing and recording in a house in Dunboyne where two of the lads live. Looking forward to summer and the festival season, they plan to get back gigging, backed up by an EP release, and finish their debut album. If teddy bears can picnic, scarecrows can disco.

Ecosophy - Radio Lecture with Aislinn O'Donnell

2009-09-19T11:17:00.015+01:00

Aislinn O'Donnell studied politics and sociology for her undergraduate degree at Trinity College Dublin, spending a year at the Institut des Sciences Politiques in Strasbourg. She then spent a graduate year at the Department of Government at Georgetown University specialising in political theory and philosophy. After an MA in Philosophy at University College Dublin, she completed a PhD at the University of Warwick in 2001, the title of which was "Subjectivity before the Subject".
Aislinn is committed to developing an engaged philosophy that retains its commitment to theoretical rigour. This has a loose affinity with 'applied philosophy' but seeks to think from singular situations and experiences rather than prescribing outcomes. She construes philosophy as a practice, both existential and political. For that reason, following completion of her PhD, she worked with asylum seekers and refugees in England and then spent six months in El Salvador working with grassroots organisations. This engendered a set of reflections around collective memory, violence, solidarity and trauma that she is continuing to develop. She then worked with Philosophy Departments at the University of Dundee and University College Dublin alongside teaching part time with the Departments of Education and Human Development at St Patrick's College, DCU, the Education Department at UCD, and the National College of Art and Design. During this time she also worked in a voluntary capacity at the drop-in centre and needle exchange programme at Merchants Quay, and spent a period of time working in India with two peer-led organisations. In 2007, she decided to return to India for a longer period to work with an Indian peer-led organisation working on issues related to HIV/AIDS and drug abuse, living and working in its men's drug rehabilitation centre in Delhi.
Her current research is born of her reflections on these experiences and her sense that philosophy needs to develop concrete and experiential forms of engagement with the 'other' of whom it often speaks. She writes out of the experience of being a participant worker working with marginalised groups in Delhi, Dublin and El Salvador, and she is developing a book-length project centered on the concept of 'active passivity' and 'passive activity'. This involves revising some of the ways in which we understand our vulnerability by challenging our pre-conceptual commitments to an autonomous self. It is structured as a series of meditations on the following themes: 'beatitude', 'attention', 'shame', 'intuition', 'love', 'dependence', 'compassion', 'genesis', 'violence', 'homelessness', 'surrender', 'attention' and 'memory'. She is also developing an innovative approach to critical pedagogy that brings philosophy and contemporary art and their practitioners into non-traditional learning environments.

Arne Naess’s definition of ecosophy

“By an ecosophy I mean a philosophy of ecological harmony or equilibrium. A philosophy as a kind of sofia (or) wisdom, is openly normative, it contains both norms, rules, postulates, value priority announcements and hypotheses concerning the state of affairs in our universe. Wisdom is policy wisdom, prescription, not only scientific description and prediction. The details of an ecosophy will show many variations due to significant differences concerning not only the ‘facts’ of pollution, resources, population, etc. but also value priorities.”

During the last thirty years philosophers in the West have critiqued the underlying assumptions of Modern philosophy in relation to the natural world. This development has been part of an ongoing expansion of philosophical work involving cross cultural studies of world views or ultimate philosophies. Since philosophical studies in the West have often ignored the natural world, and since most studies in ethics have focused on human values, those approaches which emphasize ecocentric values have been referred to as ecophilosophy. Just as the aim of traditional philosophy is sophia or wisdom, so the aim of ecophilosophy is ecosophy or ecological wisdom. The Practice of ecophilosophy is an ongoing, comprehensive, deep inquiry into values, the nature of the world and the self. The mission of ecophilosophy is to explore a diversity of perspectives on human-Nature contexts and interrelationships. It fosters deeper and more harmonious relationships between place, self, community and the natural world. This aim is furthered by comparing the diversity of ecosophies from which people support the platform principles of the global, long range, deep ecology movement.
