"The shadows are long, Masaru Sato’s score is jazzy, and the crises that the players must face, though criminal in nature, are also existential": Koreyoshi Kurahara's I AM WAITING (1957) part of Radiance Films' World Noir 1 Blu-ray set. https://lwlies.com/art.../what-to-watch-at-home-in-december/
@JV3MJD Some were faster than others to arrive at this point.
@stueytheround You can also find "Build your own theremin" sets for not a lot of money and can give it a go. But the true deal is watching someone play the theremin - body language translated into music. I have once seen in the Southbank Center a concert of 30 theremin players. @raspberrypanda
@LiberalLibrarian So, the endpoint will be "Only Harvard grads with legacy admissions will have their debt canceled"? Or has life made me too cynic?

Be careful when you follow the masses. Sometimes the “M” is silent.
@raspberrypanda And you should give Clara Rockmore a try; I think you will like what she does.
@raspberrypanda But I am sure you heard theremins before. SciFi films of the 50s often used them to imply the otherworldly nature of aliens, e.g., Bernard Hermann in "The Day the Earth Stood Still"
Pre #Brexit: "After we have left the EU, we decide who will come to the UK and who will benefit from our free trade deals."
Post Brexit: "Wait, what? The other party has a say in these decisions, too? Why do they hate us?"
@Gardenthymeherbs Maybe @th3j35t3r has a suggestion on how to use CoSo on Kindle devices?
My Christmas gift to myself: Being happy to have left academia. Queen Mary was always the worst employer in London, if not the UK.

Does anybody here use OpenOfficeImpress for presentations?
I've noticed that when adding background music tracks, the option to play across all slides is not available, as it is in PPT. Meaning when you move to the next slide, the music stops! Bit of a pain when you're trying to provide lyrics across several slides!
Anyone know a workaround *or* a different windows compatible (not MS) presentation app which will allow me to do what I need?
