On Concerts and Conflict

Yesterday and last night were very interesting. Down at The Embassy, in Kensington Market, I saw Henri Faberge and The Adoreables play live in a space not that much wider than my dorm room. I found out about The Adorables through a friend who is actually in the band. Her name is Ruhee and she plays tenor sax. She got the gig by emailing the band and auditioning. Pretty awesome I’d say.

If I were to describe the style of music that The Adorables play it would be pop rock (due to the happy, upbeat nature of most of their songs) with crazy instrumentation like clarinet and tenor sax. The Adorables just released their first record about two weeks ago, so I will definitely get it.

The Embassy deserves a little explanation. It is a long hole in the wall. The band is about midway along the length of the place, so people crowd on either side and in the case where I was (right in front of the band) tend to mosh about and even have the band mingle with the crowd during the show.

I had insane amounts of fun there and am considering going back again (The Adorables are The Embassy’s resident band, they play there the first Wendsday of everymonth) and this time bringing a super8 camera and doing an experimental film. I think that would be amazing, so does Ruhee and I just need to run it by the band. They are really good about people photographing their shows, seeing as other people promoting you is the cheapest.

Another thing happened earlier yesterday, the student group to “Stop the Israeli Apartheid” set up shop in Vari Hall. I watched as a man walked up to the display and started ripping down signs. I found that a rather shocking demonstration of the tention that exists between ethnic groups.

My first thoughts on this were what do they mean by apartheid? Are they fanatical people not bent on listening to reason? I hung around for while and listened to one of the reps talk. He was intelligent and unlike my earlier prejudices (let us call them what they are, but not all prejudice is bad if you make an effort to get educated). Their main objection was to the security wall the Israel is erecting. They feel that it is unfair to separate people like this. When I asked the man what his oppion on the wall and how one deals with a country (if you can call Palestine that, seeing as its ruling government does not have control over its militias or people) in which there are groups who publicly avow the distruction of another country, he was unable to give a satisfactory answer and quickly moved on. I also asked him what he thought of the two state solution. He said that is was possible, but he would rather see a one state solution. I found that almost as shocking as the guy who ripped the posters down.

There is a similar situation with the militia in Lebanon as there is in Palestine, the elected government is helpless to deal with well organized, well equipped (and in many cases, better equipped) militias. So how does one react, as a sovereign country, when a militia that the lawful government, of which those militia members are citizens, will not or cannot do anthing to stop crosses international boundaries and commits acts that if perpetrated by a country, would be an instant declaration of war? For all intents and purposes, Hezbollah is the de facto government in southern Lebanon so that puts Israel in a tough position when something like the kidnapping of the soldiers occurs.

For all you readers, I am curious to read your opinions on this matter.

University Marking, with subtle hints of bell curve

The end of my first month of university is approaching! Yikes it seemes to go by fast. And on the note of time fleeting away, the first two assignments in Film 1010 (Intro to filmmaking) are due this Monday. Thankfully I have them (pretty much) done because, *drum role please* they are worth a combined 25% of my final mark in that course. :(

I would have to say that the most shocking change in the transition from High School to University ( < –note the use of the capital to denote a proper noun) is the marking. In High School, one has at least a few attempts at a given task before the actual mark is recorded. If you are, or have recently gone to an Ontario high school than you are quite familiar with the concept of formative and summative, that is, to have first a practise attempt at a task, then to have the actual one count. I can not say that I am fond of either system, as when I was in High School, I would try hard for formative, do well and get bored with the summative (the “I’ve already done this, why do I need to prove it again”). Quite the opposite in University where, in most cases you have one shot at proving your proficiency in a task and for some majors/courses, your entire mark is based on one or maybe two exams.

I pity the foo who crumbles under exam pressure.

There is also the problem of bell curving a class. I am fortunate to be in a program where this is not common practise, but I have heard horror stories of programs, like psychology and others, where on the first day of class the professor told a little story:

“Look to your left and look to your right, one of those people, will fail…”

In the case of the bell curve, the professor will statistically fail one third of the students in any class. I find this ridiculous, as for example, if you bell curved an exceptionally bright class, one third of the students who met the course requirements to pass were failed because of statistics. I have heard several theories about the reason that some professors bell curve classes, the most believeable of which (in my opinion) is the desire for more tution money.

Well this ends a small dissertation on the university experience. In closing, I would like to note one thing in relation to time. Though it seems fleeting, I never expected to have as much free time as I do (free time for studying, reading endless amounts, doing assignments and maybe a little time for producing films). Not having class on Friday is great!

Welcome to University!: Frosh week in review

NOTE: this is being written at the end of the first week of classes

York is interesting in that, not only do it’s classes begin a week before most other universities, it’s frosh week also beings much earlier.

Frosh week was a blast; to start, on move in day, the frosh bosses carried all your stuff to your room. It is a really useful service when you consider that I live of the fourth floor and there are no elevators.

Probably the best event for Winter’s frosh (other than quad parties from 12 until 4 in the morning, then getting up at 8 ) was the downtown tour that we did. Most of that involved getting security called on us and being forced to disperse. Part of the downtown tour was going in front of the Much Music station during one of their live broadcasts, and getting the hosts to come out and interact with the crowd. Below is a video of said event:

Following that,the CN Tower was good and I got well acquainted with the glass floor (too bad I don’t have photos). For diner, a group of us went to one of the preeminent jazz clubs in Toronto: The Rex. For any jazz lovers, I highly recommend going there, the covers cheap (5 to 10 dollars), the food is good and the music is great. They have a live band every night and on Tuesdays, after the house band has played their set, the floor is open to who ever can play.

All in all, I would say that my experiences with Winter’s frosh was extremely positive and I will definitely apply to be a frosh boss next year.

Until next time!
