Shop official merchandise, music and more in the Jerry Cantrell Online Store. Lead singer Amy Taylor is the charismatic lightning, while guitarist Declan Martens, bassist Gus Romer, and drummer Bryce Wilson are the locomotive thunder. With the disregard of Iggy, the venom of Lemmy, and power of Angus, their live performances are tornadic events. Regardless of tempo, danger lurks in their every note and word. During Australia’s Covid shelter-in mandate, the frenzied foursome locked themselves in their home once again to pen 13 rambunctious-yet-buffed jams that combine blazers with slow burns. And their Australian Recording Industry Award-winning (Best Rock Album) self-titled full-length debut is a sweltering, swaggering, scallywag’s set of 11 songs that clock in at 30 minutes. Legend has it they knocked out their debut EP, 2016’s Giddy Up, from start to finish in just 12 hours in the band’s shared home. They rock fast and write and record even faster. #JERRY CANTRELL GUITAR RIG MANUAL#Whether you’ve been playing for three months or thirty years, the Elements was designed for those that care about tone and don’t care to read an entire manual to get the show on the road.Īmyl and the Sniffers are pragmatic. ![]() Like the rest of our pedals, each Elements device is hand-built right here in our shop using the same high-quality through-hole parts as everything else. Each Elements pedal is designed to work with a variety of amps of all costs and wattages, ensuring compatibility with whatever you’re rocking. However, don’t be fooled by the simplicity each circuit was designed and internally set to the sweet spot so you only have to worry about the volume level, just bring your amp and guitar. #JERRY CANTRELL GUITAR RIG SERIES#While we can’t streamline the amp setup process for you or take the guesswork out of your existing pedals, we can give you the next best thing: a series of stompboxes that have just one knob for a streamlined setup process, giving you that feeling of satisfaction each and every time you plug in. Whether you have a rig with two amps, 30 pedals or just one, there is something to be said about turning on and rocking without having to twiddle hundreds of knobs every time. Regardless of skill level or technical chops, or sheer amount of gear, this is a feeling whose greatness is 100 percent agreed upon. After hitting Europe and Israel, the band will start a second leg on August 22 in Vancouver.Few things in life can compare to plugging in a guitar and playing your go-to riff on a gear setup that just works. So we take advantage of that.”ĪLICE IN CHAINS has just completed a short spring tour that finished up on May 19 in Philadelphia. Regarding the five-year gap between records, Cantrell remarked: “We’ve been really fortunate in most of our career to be able to make music when we feel like it rather than having to be on somebody else’s schedule, which is really nice. The new LP follows up 2013’s “The Devil Put Dinosaurs Here”. There’s a lot of edgy stuff there, a lot of rocking stuff, a lot of weird stuff, and some pretty stuff in there too.” The title has not yet been revealed.Ĭantrell added about the new disc: “I wouldn’t say that the rest of the record sounds like, but that’s a good indicator of what the rest of the record kind of feels like. “The One You Know” is taken from ALICE IN CHAINS‘ upcoming sixth full-length studio LP, which is due out later this year. It’s a good aggro riff and it’s got the classic ALICE IN CHAINS chorus, with a weird kind of trippy middle part.” First, some info on Alice In Chains: Formed in 1987, when Jerry met Layne Staley (Vocals) at a party.

![]() He added: “Seeing a group of people like the whole team behind ‘Blair Witch’ succeed at the level they did back then was an injection of adrenaline as filmmakers.”Īttempts to turn “The Blair Witch Project” into a franchise were less successful. “Everyone now can afford a camera - has a camera in their pocket - and can, if they think out of the box properly, do something very new,” said Aneesh Chaganty, the director of the breakout thriller “Searching,” from last summer. (Hi8 is analog video, used in a hand-held camcorder.) Their surprising success inspired many young filmmakers to view amateur equipment as an opportunity, not a limitation. To make the film, Myrick and Sánchez used only Hi8 and 16-millimeter formats. “All of a sudden, you could edit on your computer.” Audiences seemed willing, he added, to accept “these new types of media and new types of stories that were being told.” “For us, video was about to become as good as film,” Sánchez said. It also allowed for an extremely low budget. That convergence primed viewers for a low-fi aesthetic that, in the right hands and with the right idea, could lead to something novel. ![]() “There was something in the air in 1999 that made us acutely aware that technology could be linked to some kind of vague, chaotic unknown, and ‘Blair Witch’ tapped into this at exactly the right moment.” “In many ways mainstream moviegoing audiences simply forgot horror could be scary in this way,” said Alexandra Heller-Nicholas, author of the book “Found Footage Horror,” in an email. “Blair Witch” could also be just plain scary - in a way that tapped perfectly into the trends and anxieties of the moment. And it was a ubiquitous part of pop culture, spawning myriad imitators and spoofs, in turns inspired by and mocking its shaky cinematography and selfie-style confessionals. It exposed new possibilities for marketing in the internet age. Its amateur aesthetic prompted a generation of filmmakers to pick up a camera, however low-tech. Produced for $60,000, the film went on to make $248.6 million at the global box office, an indie record at the time. #Blair witch project cast movie#Today, “Blair Witch,” released 20 years ago this week (and streaming now on Hulu), remains an inflection point for the movie industry. “The prime directive we had was that the film had to look completely real,” said Eduardo Sánchez, who conceived and directed the entire thing with Daniel Myrick, from the manufactured legend to the film itself. ![]() But a lot of viewers didn’t know that going in. What eventually emerged - a feature-length film made of spliced together scenes of shaky home video footage - made the demise of its three characters seem all the more authentic and terrifying. ![]() The hype, intrigue and skepticism surrounding the account, fueled by the internet’s advent, grew through the movie’s premiere, in July 1999. The online message boards began to buzz, with questions about the story’s veracity. Their footage was recovered a year later, providing evidence to support a disturbing legend. More than a year before “The Blair Witch Project” hit theaters and became a cultural phenomenon, its central mystery had already gone viral.Īccording to the movie’s fledgling promotional website, which presented itself as a real investigative project, three film students - Heather, Mike and Josh - had ventured into the Maryland woods in 1994 to shoot a documentary and then disappeared. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() But if publishers make money from these books, capitalising on their celebrity status, that may enable them to take risks with other Irish titles. We are conscious that while publishers may make money from these titles, translations are often risky undertakings. Most unusually, Normal People is one of the few books to have been translated into Basque, Galician, Catalan and Spanish. We are astounded by these publishers’ resilience. All three of Rooney’s books have been published in Ukraine, with the latest, Beautiful World, Where Are You, printed and distributed by The Old Lion Publishing House since the war began. Her writing has captured something to which not just Irish readers respond. More seriously, her depiction of the psychological challenges that young people often experience nowadays has resonated with readers from Stockholm to Bucharest, presenting valuable opportunities for discussion. The development of an international readership for Irish literature in translation, which captures the colour and culture of the country, is a powerful way to make friends for Ireland - Rooney’s books do that. The powerful images portrayed in Rooney’s books of life in Ireland, whether on a boisterous GAA playing field in Sligo or in the lively lecture halls in Trinity, connect people emotionally and imaginatively with this country. Literature Ireland has supported the translation of all three Rooney titles, with 38 editions in 21 languages supported to date. Sally Rooney’s writing has struck a chord across the world, with readers clamouring to have access to her latest works in their own languages. #SALLY ROONEY MAC#Sinéad Mac Aodha, Director of Literature Ireland These international collaborations and events allow translators from around the world to have their voices heard, often for the first time, about the art of translating literature into different languages. In its mission to bring the best of Irish literature to the world and the best of world literature to readers in Ireland, the centre works closely with bodies like EUNIC Ireland, a network of 18 cultural institutes and embassies working to build trust and understanding in the post-crisis society of Europe and the world through cultural engagement. Translators Vesna Velkovrh Bukilica (Slovene), Inga Pellisa (Spanish) and Mihaela Buruiană (Romanian) discussed the delicate and complicated art of translating Sally Rooney for readers of other languages, while Rooney described her reaction to seeing her work in translation. A collaboration between the Trinity Centre for Literary and Cultural Translation and EUNIC Ireland (European Union National Institutes for Culture), the event featured a discussion between Rooney and three of her translators on the interplay of their work in bringing great literature to the world. Last night Sally Rooney was joined by three of her translators at an event in Trinity College Dublin to celebrate literature in translation. So, having already been translated into as many as 47 languages so far, her three novels, Conversations with Friends, Normal People and Beautiful World, Where Are You, give us a special chance to ask on World Translation Day (September 30th) what goes into translating great Irish literature for the world. Though literature is undoubtedly one of Ireland’s greatest exports to the world, there are few Irish authors who have become literary sensations as quickly as Sally Rooney in recent years.

This is why the #define statements were used at the top of the code. The if-statement on line 45 independently controls the strobing of the active LED. It makes sure to disable both LEDs before setting a state, so one does not get “stuck on.” The first if-statement (line 36) checks to see if it time to switch the active LED. The millis() loops should be self-explanatory, after reading the millis() multitasking tutorial. millis() if-statementsīoth of the millis() if-statements make use of millis() rollover handling, instead of trying to reset millis(). This variable determines the rate at for the currently strobing LED. This variable tracks the millis() value needed before switching between the Red and Blue LED. #ARDUINO AS TIMER FOR STROBE LIGHT CODE#The #define statements are optional, but make the code easier to follow later on (Around line 46). ![]() Using a couple of #define statements, this variable tracks which LED should be strobing at a given time. #ARDUINO AS TIMER FOR STROBE LIGHT UPDATE#Each iteration of loop() will update the LEDs with a digitalWrite() based on this state variable. This allows logic inside the loop() to determine when the lights should be turned on or off.

What you’ll have to do is to leave the AC adapter plugged in all the time. The LEDs don’t go on immediately when the power comes on because the processor has to start up and prepare to do its thing (it flashes the LEDs itself normally.) The output from the transformer doesn’t shut off immediately when you disconnect it from AC. The key point is that your string of LEDs is microprocessor controlled, and that you seem to be controlling it by switching the AC power on and off. The only “specifications” available are whatever the seller feels like putting in his advertisement. This is a consumer article rather than something you would buy from an electronics supplier. That’s on and off at 23 times per second, so the relay should be fast enough. It should take at most (3*(1 second / 60 Hz)/2 +1 millisecond)= 26 milliseconds to turn off. You are using a 210B relay, so it should take it at most ((1 second / 60 Hz)/2 +1 millisecond)= 17 milliseconds to turn on. If you buy your parts from proper suppliers, they will provide dasheets for things like your relay.Ĭhecking the datasheet for the relay,we find this bit of information on the switching time: So please try to spell out all terminology and concepts the best you can.

In fact, from testing it, the most I can do is ~every 1 second on and. The problem is, I can’t flash on and off the lights every. However, I tried it with a solid state relay and a strobe lights and its not working. 1 seconds a new signal (1 or 0) is passed from the arduino digital pin 3 based on a numerical analysis of the song data I preformed previously.

The Floyd have dealt with such themes before, from The Dark Side of the Moon to Animals, but never with such bitter passion.Today the focus is on programs for the Apple Macintosh. ![]() This is a long, uneven work that seems to lose direction on the confusing third and fourth sides, and it veers uneasily between crazy indulgence and nihilistic brilliance. But shows that those members of the new wave who attacked the band because of their vast concerts and use of elaborate technology, had really missed the point. This album will either be praised or damned. It’s a strong, frightening statement that shows why the Floyd never were – yes, and are still not – redundant, in spite of their wealth and success, because they still question themselves and the world around them. Roger Waters, who wrote almost all of The Wall, has never sounded less complacent or more suicidal. The first bombastic passage shows that he will be questioning his own role with the Floyd, rather than just the alienated society he sees about him. There’s a parody of Floyd’s famous stage-show special effects, and he asks “is this not what you expected to see?” The question is not answered until the song is repeated on side four, by which time his vision has become so wild that a neo-Nazi gang are on stage in place of the Floyd, checking “where you fans really stand” and taking gays, blacks and Jews from the audience. And that comes after a whole depressing life and death “Wall” saga. No, this is not easy listening.Īlbum cover of Pink Floyd’s The Wall, 1979. The most accessible, central part of the work is contained on the first two sides. From the first sounds of a baby crying to the final suicide note, Waters describes the “wall” that he sees built around people, cutting them off from each other and leaving them frightened and lonely inside. #Devonthink to go trial fullSound effects from bird song to random television noise build up the feeling of alienation, while the music uses the full range of the Floyd’s long-established talents, from grand melodic themes to gentle acoustic patches, held together by the mesmeric, jangling choruses of Another Brick In The Wall (in which a London children’s choir perfectly follows Water’s clipped vocals).Īs the wall is built and the figure inside gets more crazy, there are attacks on those he sees laying tile bricks - schoolteacher, mother, lover and wife. #Devonthink to go trial skinSide three includes a piece on the West Coast trendster who has everything but still gets no answer on the phone, a strange piece about Vera Lynn (complete with operatic chorus singing “bring the boys back home”) that presumably questions the disappearance of the cameraderie that existed in wartime, and an excellent song, Comfortably Numb, that leads back to the rock ‘n’ roll band theme.Lawyer: Good morning, Worm your honor The crown will plainly show The prisoner who now stands before you Was caught red-handed showing feelings Showing feelings of an almost human nature This will not do Call the schoolmaster!!! #Pink floyd the trial skinĪdd to this some classic Dave Gilmour guitar breaks, and lyrics like “love turns grey, like the skin of a dying man” and the first two sides are a chilling Floyd classic.īut there are two more sides to go, from which one presumably concludes that the suicide wasn’t real after all, or that the “wall” theme is now being localised to the Floyd’s own problems. ![]() ![]() They initially built a directory of PGP keys (cryptographic keys that you can use so that no one can decrypt your communication with someone else) that became popular through Twitter.

All I can say is that there should have been a special unlock for that, but I don't think the best ending of the game was the way to do it. The worst part is beating the game using no continues and no deaths. You have to find all five of these hidden gems in the game, which is not that bad. That is what you have to do to unlock the better endings in this game. Yes, they are hard, but they are all doable and there is no ridiculous task set in front of you that says if you don't die you get the best ending. I know that games have been hard in the past, look at the Souls series. The biggest issue with this whole game is just how darned hard it is and how it hides its story behind that difficulty. These things I quickly ignored because I knew that this game was supposed to be hard. My biggest gripe with this game is not about how the story is hidden behind this macabre wall, or even how some of the game parts feel cheap because of certain gameplay elements that are thrown in. Not because the story is sad, but because you suddenly realize just how good at this game you have to get. This is no more evident than when you think you have beaten the game and then you see the true goal that you are trying to achieve in the game, and then you weep. You may just think you are a little guy who jumps and kills enemies (no not Mario! COME ON!), but you play a much bigger part in the story that this game is telling. From the designs of bosses names to the levels themselves, everything has a story to tell. The elements of storytelling that are here will not change your life, however, they will make you realize just how excellent the developer was at crafting a story within a level. I was pleasantly surprised, however, when about halfway through the game some major events occur that push the game into having a story that was quite worth uncovering. I felt like I was going area to area with no real cohesion other than the areas would start to blend into one another and once in a while, my main character would meet up with some of the other characters from the beginning of the game. ![]() The reason I thought there was not going to be a story was just because of the arcade feel to the game. Not because the intro didn't introduce the world or anything of that sort because it does. STORYĪfter the first hour or so into the game I wasn't really sure if there was going to be a story to this game or not. Side note, the game has two names, I use Cursed Castilla when referring to it, as it is the technical name for the second release, but both Maldita Castilla EX and Cursed Castilla are correct titles. If you thought you were prepared to die, then think again, this is Cursed Castilla!Ĭursed Castillais available on Steam for $11.99. The difficulty is not lowered in this game, although it is easier than it's Capcom compatriot, due to unlimited continues and a healthy amount of checkpoints. Inspired by the Ghost's and Goblins series from the 80's Castilla invokes a sense of nostalgia and just good feelings from the beginning. ![]() Maldita Castilla EX will have you cursing and praising its difficulty from the very beginning. From boss fights that will challenge your very soul, to perfectly timed platforming. I respect a game that forces you to learn the in's and out's of its gameplay. A video game is only difficult to those who aren't willing to learn, at least that is what Maldita Castilla EX, would have you believe. ![]() |
