Roller String

US $1.25
Whether you've planned one event or hundreds it's happened to you: someone runs up in a panic because they need _______ and they think you'll have it because you're the event planner. That's right, __blank__, they'll ask you for anything and everything and they need it NOW! Thumb tacks, scissors, glue, a hammer, needle and thread, batteries, or Tylenol - you name it and as far as they're concerned their crisis is far more important than anything you could be dealing with at the registration table or backstage. Well, after a few instances like this I decided to make sure the next "ask" would be met with an assuring "yes". So I created THE EVENT KIT. It's an emergency kit that has everything anyone could ever ask for while at an event. Exhibitors, performers, caterers, attendees, limo drivers, and volunteers - I'm ready for all their 9-1-1's.
This was the most fun I have had shopping in a long time. I went on a shopping frenzy to Staples, Home Depot, and a few other stores (spent about $1,000 in total) and prepared the most amazing emergency event kit that I've every seen. We're talkin' the grand daddy of event kits here. I started off with a Pelican Case because I wanted something durable (I also have a bit of gear envy and this was my way of trying to be cool like my photographer and A/V friends). I bought some small organizers to make sense out of the little bits, and then I tackled the extremely difficult task of making it all fit. Now, when I show up on event day I feel armed and prepared to help everyone with their mini-emergencies.
Someone asked me the other day if I got the idea from watching The Wedding Planner (Jennifer Lopez) and I laughed out loud right in their face. I felt bad. Nope, I didn't steal it from a movie. I don't really remember any sort of brain wave - inspiration didn't really come into play on this one. I've seen other planners with kits before but they've always been small tool boxes or sewing kits and I just wanted to take it over the top.

String Quartets $17.99 This CD was recorded at WDR Cologne and Immanuelkirche Wuppertal.Peter Ruzicka's string quartets are distinctively postmodern. Rather than building themes and weaving them together into a unified whole, Ruzicka's music revels in its fragmentation. Constantly stopping and starting, the pieces are built not on themes so much as moods, each fragment touching upon an aspect of the emotion.'...?ber ein Verschwinden' ['...Beyond a Void'] embodies much of Ruzicka's introverted tendencies, juxtaposing an eerie silence with solitary, high-pitched strings. However, the swelling stings of 'Klangschatten' ['Sound shadow'] and the frenzied undulations within the second movement of '...fragment...' show a turbulent undercurrent within his creativity. The variety found within the latter piece puts the listener on an emotional roller coaster--it juxtaposes serenity and cacophony from movement to movement, each note and rest more potent than the one preceding it.The Arditti Quartet captures all the subtleties of these compositions, quite a feat considering the highly intellectualized structure and abrupt nature of the passages. The result is a fascinating study into the postmodern.REVIEWS:New York Times (8/6/00, p.30) - "...Between sharp gestures that hang in air like the strokes of a Chinese master calligrapher and pools of silence, the speaker is heard in snippets of text in several languages by a handful of mandarins of modern prose..." |
