RE-imagine by TRILLION feat Andy Gibson (John Lennon Tribute)

Posted on by Dr Hitchcock

Merry ho ho and happy new ear Starlifter massive. Dr Hitchcock here! My friend Trillion has just released a John Lennon tribute song which came out on the 30th anniversary of his death. John is a great inspiration to me and to Trillion, here’s what he has to say about this video:

“30 years ago, John Lennon was murdered. I remember it clearly, i was 8 years old – i was really upset, and i collected all the newspaper articles about it. I also remember my dad drawing me a picture of John Lennon for my 7th or 8th birthday. I have been a beatles fan ever since i could put a record onto a record player…

this song came about after imagining a new version of ‘imagine’ with updated modern verses… i couldn’t think of anything because ‘imagine’ is still so relevant and already ticks all the boxes, so i just imagined people singing ‘imagine’ again… enjoy.

this song features the awesome Andy Gibson: http://www.andygibson.co.nz/

and contains a sample from ‘I Am Love’ by Global Chant, seen here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=47IRXZ…

thank you!”

I introduce to you, all the way from Estonia, Paljad Helid, or Bare Sounds as it translates to in english. According to the buzz they make ‘sounds that come directly from the source and relate to the soul.‘ My friend Eiko put me on to them and I’m really into it. They kinda remind me of Kings of Convenience from Norway but with more of a psychedelic flavour.

Enjoy,
Dr H

TEDxChCh – Linh Do – Defying Social Norms for Social Change

Posted on by Dr Hitchcock

In this talk, Linh Do asks some important questions: What is normal? And how abnormal do we have to be to effect social change?

19-year-old Linh Do is the founder of Change and Switch in Australia. Four years ago, Linh initiated the Change a Million Light Bulbs project in Melbourne to get people to switch from incandescent to LED or compact fluorescent light bulbs. The project later went Australia-wide under the name Change and Switch and, as of November 2009, incandescent light bulbs are no longer for sale in Australia.
Just three years ago, Linh was trained by Al Gore to be a Climate Project presenter and deliver the slideshow behind An Inconvenient Truth, and earlier this year, Linh was one of 250 international passengers to spend two months on the Ship of World Youth, an initiative by the Government of Japan to facilitate intercultural exchange.

Linh is currently studying for her Bachelor of Arts in International Politics and Environmental Studies, as well as the University of Melbourne’s Universitas 21 Diploma in Global Issues.
