Every show rocked with pandemonium at the end. Then people wouldn't leave. Our 12 singers and musicians joined an audience that became a party that became a town hall meeting.

The “repetition” of the song’s “melody-tone tempo,” she explains, provides a shared sonic “meeting place” and “stage” where our emotions can temporarily liberate individual identities.

The scientists who reported what weather to expect based on computer mode…

The storms and wildfires and floods are a daily apocalypse that we mistake for sense-surround blockbusters.
