| Kinetik Festival official statement on Rachel Haywire / Haywire Experiment |
[6th,Dec., 2009|03:25 pm] |

NEQ: 1164635469

Object : Rachel Haywire / machineKUNT Records / Experiment Haywire
Montréal, November 29th 2009,
Kinetik Productions wishes to bring to your attention the continual attack from Ms. Haywire against the Kinetik Festival and Kinetik Productions company image. Over the past 3 years, we have asked several websites to remove her harmful and derogative comments concerning the Kinetik Festival and the musical acts present during the festival.
Unfortunately, she had made a personal business to attack the festival and some bands performing during Kinetik festival, without investigating the alleged facts. She tried to put down the festival based on her statements. The severity and frequency of her false allegations gives us no choice but to warn you against Ms Rachel Haywire.
For the past three years, we had to get in touch with Ms Haywire in order to ask her to stop these repeated, intrusive and unwanted words, intended to adversely affect the reputation of the bands and the Kinetik festival. She, unfortunately, neglected to answer our demands and continued attacking the festival and its acts.
The Kinetik festival mission is to cultivate originality, innovation and diversity in the musical performance arena. During this event, several emerging and well-established artists gather in Montreal to celebrate. We have worked hard to bring together this dream and cannot tolerate Ms Haywire incessant and derogatory comments.
The Festival past editions have shown the audience, the industry and the musicians how professional, distinguish and well organized the festival is. In collaboration with the major labels, production companies and bands, Kinetik Festival is pleased to bring together the largest North American electro-Industrial festival.
With this letter, we wish to raise the concern and bring to your attention this abnormal situation, as some of you may have worked in collaboration with Ms. Haywire in the past.
In many occasion, Ms Haywise made disparaging comments concerning the Kinetik Festival and among other, the band Terrorfakt. Erroneously giving them a Neo-Nazi / white power denominate. She opened numerous website and posted several comments in order to gain some visibility and credibility with these disparaging remarks and trying to affect the festival.
Being officially recognized by the Canadian government and other governmental institutions, we cannot, under any circumstance, endorse this form of harassment. We trust that you will take similar action and no longer work with her on any level.

Final report of the commercial starship Nostromo, third officer reporting.
Let you all be advised of the forthcoming closure of this journal. It has served its purpose. To be honest I've been cheating on all of you with another livejournal account.
I will be remaining in touch with some of you, either because I know you in real life (shock! horror!) or because we associate on other online fora.
If any of you are interested enough to keep in touch you'll find a way.
This journal will be stripped for parts in the coming months then set adrift.
I've had something to learn from all of you and appreciate having shared this little patch of cyber-real estate with you.
This is ![[info]](http://l-stat.livejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif?v=91.7) prenna, last survivor of the Nostromo, signing off. |

| European Commission's president insults the whole of the UK |
[1st,Dec., 2008|09:39 pm] |
Talking about adopting the Euro:
"I know that the majority in Britain are still opposed, but there is a period of consideration under way and the people who matter in Britain are currently thinking about it," he said. |

| Writer's Block: Autumn Begins |
[23rd,Sep., 2008|01:37 pm] |
I've never done a QOTD so here I go. Autumn was six months ago here. I'm still slightly screwed up by the seasons (all two of them we get in QLD). When movies are advertised as being "Winter 2009" I'm always stunned before re-gaining my bearings and realising they mean June.
Back in Europe, Autumn was my favourite season. Everything about it from the changing colours to the temperature was just perfect. Here in QLD, the changes in season are much more subtle. I've started to notice an increase in rustling of lizards in the undergrowth and the turtles are back in the creek. Oh and it's too fucking hot already.
Further South in Australia has proper seasons apparently. |

| Veganism and Spirituality |
[12th,Sep., 2008|12:48 pm] |
This might be of interest to people in the Brisneyland area, vegan or not (it's not me putting this on btw):
Spirituality and Veganism.
People have different reasons for being vegan. During the last forty years:-
* Peter Singer wrote Animal Liberation and started the ethical debate.
* Health professionals have raised health concerns.
* The environmental and conservation groups raised environmental issues.
Yet for many centuries there has been humanitarian, spiritual and religious motivation for living a vegan/vegetarian lifestyle. It has a profound effect upon the individual’s physical and spiritual health, the creatures and the environment.
Any reason is a good reason for being vegan.
I have organized this meeting in order to share my motivation for being vegan - from the spiritual perspective.
My intention is to stimulate mutual learning and discussion amongst the group.
This meeting is about spirituality rather than any particular religion, belief or dogma. We are all different. We can share our beliefs, but let us agree to avoid imposing them upon others.
Agenda
* Short talk by Clive Davis, Spiritual healer/Counsellor
* Group discussion
* Meditation: On behalf of the creatures.
The Venue
* Meeting room 4D is on the fourth floor of the State Library. I will post a map to the website.
* We have the room for two hours – 1pm to 3pm. Sunday 14th September.
* There are 16 chairs in the room, so numbers are limited.
* It is a nice quiet meeting room with a view of the river.
* We can have refreshments at the ground floor cafe - Togninis before and/or after our meeting.
* Bonus is that it is a central location and we can visit the gallery or museum on the same day! smile
Looking forward to seeing you there.
Clive

| Hurricane Hanna |
[8th,Sep., 2008|07:16 pm] |
I don't have a TV or read newspapers so events in the spectacle tend to escape me. The recent hurricanes battering the US have come to my attention. Gustav and Ike eh? Well immediately I thought "They've missed one" (knowing that hurricanes are named alphabetically). So I decided to look it up and was introduced to Hurricane Hanna.
Now, as far as I've seen, the media have been pretty quiet about poor old Hanna. She happens to be the most deadly tropical cyclone in the Atlantic basin since hurricane Stan in 2005, killing 535.
Can I be cynical for a moment and suggest that the reason why so little coverage has been given to Hanna is that she only killed 6 people from the US, while the rest of the 535 deaths (not to mention the 48000 displaced people) occurred in Haiti and the Dominican Republic? Can I be even more cynical and suggest that this might have something to do with the skin colour of the majority of the victims?
No. Now I'm just being silly, surely? |
