Then stand it up “and just slice down the sides straight down to get the four cheeks off,” says Leith. The fruit is ready to cut any way you like.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>🫚 Use a spoon to peel your ginger. \u003c/strong>“Ginger is so difficult to peel because it’s a funny, odd shape,” says Leith. To make it easier, grab an ordinary teaspoon, stick it under the skin of the ginger and start scraping. When you get to the nubby bits, just use a little more elbow grease. (Watch the video above to see how Leith does it!)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Leith loves to use ginger in drinks “to give it a bit of a kick,” especially ginger beer with a little lime juice.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>🍦Bring back over-whipped cream with a bit of cream. \u003c/strong>If you see that your cream has started to go grainy and “suddenly gets a bit too stiff,” stop whisking and add in a little cream to try and rescue it, she says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If your over-whipped cream has “lumps of what is in fact butter,” she says, the trick won’t work. But don’t throw it away. Keep whisking to turn the rest of the cream into butter, then add herbs — “and you’ve made a sort of maitre d’hotel butter.” It’s perfect on top of steak.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>🧁 Prevent your cupcake and muffin liners from getting greasy with a little bit of uncooked rice. \u003c/strong>“Just put one teaspoon of dry, uncooked rice in between the muffin liner and the tin. It will absorb any kind of grease or fat,” she says. It also makes the baked muffin easy to pull out of the tray.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>🍌 Turn your overripe banana (even its skin) into a smoothie. \u003c/strong>Instead of chucking that banana into the compost bin, wash it, cut the two hard ends off and “liquidize the whole thing, including the skin” in a blender, says Leith. The black skin of a banana has loads of good stuff in it: fiber, polyunsaturated fats and amino acids. As you whizz it up, add milk and lots of cinnamon. “If you really want a treat, put a blob of vanilla ice cream.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_13968265\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1372px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-13968265\" src=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/11/prue-smooth.png\" alt=\"A senior woman wearing colorful clothes and accessories pours a milky liquid from.a blender into a glass.\" width=\"1372\" height=\"2000\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/11/prue-smooth.png 1372w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/11/prue-smooth-800x1166.png 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/11/prue-smooth-1020x1487.png 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/11/prue-smooth-160x233.png 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/11/prue-smooth-768x1120.png 768w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/11/prue-smooth-1054x1536.png 1054w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1372px) 100vw, 1372px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Prue Leith makes a smoothie using overripe bananas — skin and all.

The fruit is ready to cut any way you like.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>🫚 Use a spoon to peel your ginger. \u003c/strong>“Ginger is so difficult to peel because it’s a funny, odd shape,” says Leith. To make it easier, grab an ordinary teaspoon, stick it under the skin of the ginger and start scraping. When you get to the nubby bits, just use a little more elbow grease. (Watch the video above to see how Leith does it!)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Leith loves to use ginger in drinks “to give it a bit of a kick,” especially ginger beer with a little lime juice.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>🍦Bring back over-whipped cream with a bit of cream. \u003c/strong>If you see that your cream has started to go grainy and “suddenly gets a bit too stiff,” stop whisking and add in a little cream to try and rescue it, she says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If your over-whipped cream has “lumps of what is in fact butter,” she says, the trick won’t work. But don’t throw it away. Keep whisking to turn the rest of the cream into butter, then add herbs — “and you’ve made a sort of maitre d’hotel butter.” It’s perfect on top of steak.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>🧁 Prevent your cupcake and muffin liners from getting greasy with a little bit of uncooked rice. \u003c/strong>“Just put one teaspoon of dry, uncooked rice in between the muffin liner and the tin. It will absorb any kind of grease or fat,” she says. It also makes the baked muffin easy to pull out of the tray.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>🍌 Turn your overripe banana (even its skin) into a smoothie. \u003c/strong>Instead of chucking that banana into the compost bin, wash it, cut the two hard ends off and “liquidize the whole thing, including the skin” in a blender, says Leith. The black skin of a banana has loads of good stuff in it: fiber, polyunsaturated fats and amino acids. As you whizz it up, add milk and lots of cinnamon. “If you really want a treat, put a blob of vanilla ice cream.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_13968265\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1372px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-13968265\" src=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/11/prue-smooth.png\" alt=\"A senior woman wearing colorful clothes and accessories pours a milky liquid from.a blender into a glass.\" width=\"1372\" height=\"2000\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/11/prue-smooth.png 1372w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/11/prue-smooth-800x1166.png 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/11/prue-smooth-1020x1487.png 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/11/prue-smooth-160x233.png 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/11/prue-smooth-768x1120.png 768w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/11/prue-smooth-1054x1536.png 1054w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1372px) 100vw, 1372px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Prue Leith makes a smoothie using overripe bananas — skin and all.

"content": "\u003cp>Patrick Radden Keefe’s book \u003cem>Say Nothing\u003c/em>, a history of The Troubles in Northern Ireland, is heavy in a few ways. On top of its subject matter, it’s more than 500 pages long — though a quarter of that is notes, a proportion that reflects both the depth of Keefe’s research and the sprawl of the story.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The 2018 book begins with the abduction and murder of Jean McConville, a widowed mother of ten who was taken from her home in 1972 by operatives of the Irish Republican Army and never seen alive again. It follows several historical figures through decades of The Troubles: Gerry Adams, a radical who became a politician (who insists to this day that he was never part of the IRA); Brendan Hughes, an IRA member nicknamed The Dark; and many participants in IRA operations, some of whom spent long periods in jail. Some died on hunger strikes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside postid='arts_13940076']But Keefe’s most compelling character is the woman who appears with her face half-hidden on the book cover: Dolours Price, who began working with the IRA as a teenager, and who eventually spent years in jail for a series of car bombings in London. And it is Dolours who centers the new FX series that tries to wrestle this perhaps unadaptable book into a nine-episode scripted series.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Played as a young woman by Lola Petticrew and as an older one by Maxine Peake, Dolours is raised to be a radical alongside her sister, Marian (Hazel Doupe). Their aunt has already given her hands and eyes to the cause as a bomb-maker, and while the girls start out in nonviolent protest, they soon join the ranks of those whose commitment to the cause of removing the British from Northern Ireland includes using bombs and guns. And that doesn’t extend only to the use of violence against British soldiers and police; it includes attacks on Belfast Catholics who are believed to be traitors or informants. And eventually, as the series tells it, Dolours comes up with the idea to set off the bombs in London that sent the sisters to prison. (According to the book, it was more complicated than that.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FhxvEJV9xos\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>The challenge of distilling history in a scripted series\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>As a show, \u003cem>Say Nothing\u003c/em> is well-executed and features excellent performances (Peake’s is perhaps the strongest). Yet the series can’t be expected to do the same work as the book — a scripted show is not a history lesson. There is a patience and thoroughness to Keefe’s explanation of the underlying dynamics that led to the Troubles that the series cannot match. Decades (and more) of history can’t be easily condensed into a scene or an image. So what comes through more clearly are the things that \u003cem>do \u003c/em>translate well to dramatization.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Indeed, in early episodes, \u003cem>Say Nothing\u003c/em> often feels like a caper movie, following Dolours and Marian and their compatriots on missions where they prove they are up to the same jobs that young men they know can do. Those missions turn grim when Dolours begins to drive initially unsuspecting men — some of them people she knows well — to the places where they will be killed by their allies for their believed transgressions. Creator Josh Zetumer has said that one of the things he wanted the series to capture is that radicalism can be romantic and exciting for young people, and \u003cem>Say Nothing\u003c/em> certainly does that.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The difficulty is that Dolours’ time as an operative, when she still sees the conflict and her work for the IRA as quite simple, are the least emotionally rich part of the story. But they occupy a great deal of the on-screen real estate across these nine episodes.. For instance: Dolours and Marian’s harrowing hunger strike is one episode out of nine in the show. But it’s one chapter out of 30 in the book.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_13968086\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 2000px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-13968086\" src=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/11/gerry.png\" alt=\"A white man with dark hair and beard stands with arms folded in front of 1970s-era wallpaper.\" width=\"2000\" height=\"1333\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/11/gerry.png 2000w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/11/gerry-800x533.png 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/11/gerry-1020x680.png 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/11/gerry-160x107.png 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/11/gerry-768x512.png 768w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/11/gerry-1536x1024.png 1536w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/11/gerry-1920x1280.png 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2000px) 100vw, 2000px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Josh Finan as Gerry Adams. \u003ccite>(Rob Youngston/FX)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Necessarily, when some things take up more space, others will take up less. There is limited attention until late in the series to the McConvilles, who spent the decades after their mother’s death dealing with her absence. Other than Brendan Hughes and Gerry Adams, there’s little about other IRA members (or alleged members), particularly Bobby Sands, an important figure in the book who died while on a hunger strike in prison.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Reckoning with the past\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>[aside postid='arts_13891175']The book is less about recounting actions than it is about contextualizing choices and consequences, and so perhaps it’s unsurprising that the series is at its best when it does the same. The last two episodes, the most successful ones, are focused on two stories. One is Dolours’ struggle, as an older woman, with her past actions (though she remains a staunch believer in her cause itself). It is only when she’s older, and when she feels that the revolution she hoped to be part of has largely failed, that Dolours can reckon with her own actions — including her role in the murder of Jean McConville. The show is not meant to be a condemnation of Dolours’ radical youth, but only a presentation of it as a choice made out of desperation with outcomes she could not fully anticipate.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The other story is about the agony of the McConville children, who are now adults, who long for the barest peace they hope to find in properly burying their mother’s body. This is where the thesis of the book comes through best: This conflict was devastating and intolerable, and for many people, it never ended.

On top of its subject matter, it’s more than 500 pages long — though a quarter of that is notes, a proportion that reflects both the depth of Keefe’s research and the sprawl of the story.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The 2018 book begins with the abduction and murder of Jean McConville, a widowed mother of ten who was taken from her home in 1972 by operatives of the Irish Republican Army and never seen alive again. It follows several historical figures through decades of The Troubles: Gerry Adams, a radical who became a politician (who insists to this day that he was never part of the IRA); Brendan Hughes, an IRA member nicknamed The Dark; and many participants in IRA operations, some of whom spent long periods in jail. Some died on hunger strikes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

And it is Dolours who centers the new FX series that tries to wrestle this perhaps unadaptable book into a nine-episode scripted series.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Played as a young woman by Lola Petticrew and as an older one by Maxine Peake, Dolours is raised to be a radical alongside her sister, Marian (Hazel Doupe). Their aunt has already given her hands and eyes to the cause as a bomb-maker, and while the girls start out in nonviolent protest, they soon join the ranks of those whose commitment to the cause of removing the British from Northern Ireland includes using bombs and guns. And that doesn’t extend only to the use of violence against British soldiers and police; it includes attacks on Belfast Catholics who are believed to be traitors or informants. And eventually, as the series tells it, Dolours comes up with the idea to set off the bombs in London that sent the sisters to prison. (According to the book, it was more complicated than that.)\u003c/p>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutube'>\n \u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutubeInside'>\n \u003ciframe\n loading='lazy'\n class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__youtubePlayer'\n type='text/html'\n src='//www.youtube.com/embed/FhxvEJV9xos'\n title='//www.youtube.com/embed/FhxvEJV9xos'\n allowfullscreen='true'\n style='border:0;'>\u003c/iframe>\n \u003c/span>\n \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003ch3>The challenge of distilling history in a scripted series\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>As a show, \u003cem>Say Nothing\u003c/em> is well-executed and features excellent performances (Peake’s is perhaps the strongest). Yet the series can’t be expected to do the same work as the book — a scripted show is not a history lesson. There is a patience and thoroughness to Keefe’s explanation of the underlying dynamics that led to the Troubles that the series cannot match. Decades (and more) of history can’t be easily condensed into a scene or an image. So what comes through more clearly are the things that \u003cem>do \u003c/em>translate well to dramatization.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Those missions turn grim when Dolours begins to drive initially unsuspecting men — some of them people she knows well — to the places where they will be killed by their allies for their believed transgressions. Creator Josh Zetumer has said that one of the things he wanted the series to capture is that radicalism can be romantic and exciting for young people, and \u003cem>Say Nothing\u003c/em> certainly does that.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The difficulty is that Dolours’ time as an operative, when she still sees the conflict and her work for the IRA as quite simple, are the least emotionally rich part of the story. But they occupy a great deal of the on-screen real estate across these nine episodes.. For instance: Dolours and Marian’s harrowing hunger strike is one episode out of nine in the show.

The last two episodes, the most successful ones, are focused on two stories. One is Dolours’ struggle, as an older woman, with her past actions (though she remains a staunch believer in her cause itself). It is only when she’s older, and when she feels that the revolution she hoped to be part of has largely failed, that Dolours can reckon with her own actions — including her role in the murder of Jean McConville. The show is not meant to be a condemnation of Dolours’ radical youth, but only a presentation of it as a choice made out of desperation with outcomes she could not fully anticipate.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The other story is about the agony of the McConville children, who are now adults, who long for the barest peace they hope to find in properly burying their mother’s body. This is where the thesis of the book comes through best: This conflict was devastating and intolerable, and for many people, it never ended. People do awful things in war, they take orders, they commit and do not look back. But that doesn’t mean that, many years later, they are not haunted. And the twin hauntings of Dolours Price and Helen McConville, who was 15 when her mother died, are the most tragic and piercing chapters of this story.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_13968085\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 2000px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-13968085\" src=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/11/delours.png\" alt=\"A red headed woman rests her head on her left hand while reclining on a couch.

And the more you reuse them across games, the stronger they get.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Kidd also says that throughout the years, Nintendo has positioned its new, young composers to work alongside veterans of the industry. He points to composer Toru Minegishi, who contributed tracks to \u003cem>The Legend of Zelda: Majora’s Mask\u003c/em> alongside Koji Kondo in 2000, and then served as lead composer for \u003cem>The Legend Of Zelda: Twilight Princess\u003c/em> in 2006.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://youtu.be/WXJiltJDlq4?si=hxeviNFmNYlzGyKa\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>The broad appeal of video game music\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>The Nintendo Music app owes its early success to more than just Nintendo music itself.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For years, people have been listening to video game music on other platforms, like YouTube.

Her 2013 middle-grade children’s book \u003cem>Rooftoppers \u003c/em>drew inspiration from her own adventures as an undergraduate at Oxford, where she climbed brick walls and scaled drainpipes to take in the views of that “city of dreaming spires” from on high. More recently, Rundell has written \u003cem>Super-Infinite\u003c/em>, an acclaimed biography of the metaphysical poet John Donne, as well as a bestselling fantasy novel, called \u003cem>Impossible Creatures\u003c/em>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside postid='arts_13967439']In short, Rundell is something of a Renaissance woman who writes with the elegance and erudition that distinguished that era. \u003cem>Vanishing Treasures\u003c/em> is a bestiary, a collection of creatures, both odd and mundane — all of whom are more astonishing than you might expect; all of whom, as Rundell tells us are “endangered or [contain] a subspecies that is endangered — because there is almost no creature on the planet, now, for which that is not the case.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Rundell begins her book with an epigraph from an author whose reputation is itself approaching extinction: the British essayist and mystery writer, G.K. Chesterton: “The world will never starve for want of wonders; but only for want of wonder.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>What follows are 23 very short essays on creatures ranging from the wombat to the spider; the raccoon to the tuna. For anyone whose capacity for wonder could use a jumpstart, Rundell’s essays are essential reading. Listen, for instance, to these sentences from the opening paragraph of her essay on the swift — a common creature so named because it’s the fastest bird in flight:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\n\u003cdiv>\n\u003cp>The swift is sky-suited like no other bird. Weighing less than a hen’s egg, with wings like a scythe and a tail like a fork, it eats and sleeps on the wing. … [Swifts] mate in brief mid-sky collisions, the only birds to do so, and to wash they hunt down clouds and fly through gentle rain, slowly, wings outstretched.\u003c/p>\n\u003c/div>\n\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>As you can hear, Rundell’s essays are no mere Wikipedia entries about the natural world; rather, they’re deeply-felt, lyrical, often witty, and occasionally grisly evocations of the living marvels she’s surveying. Her essay on “The Hermit Crab,” for instance, begins with a jolt: “It was, perhaps, a hermit crab that ate Amelia Earhart.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Rundell goes on to explain: It seems that the uninhabited island in the Western Pacific where \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2024/01/29/1227574179/amelia-earharts-lost-plane-howland-island\">Earhart’s plane\u003c/a> may have gone down and where 13 (but, only 13) human bones were discovered that matched Earhart’s size is to this day also “home to a colony of coconut hermit crabs: the world’s largest land crab. … The oldest [crabs] live to more than a hundred, and grow to be up to 40 inches across: too large to fit in a bathtub, exactly the right size for a nightmare.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside postid='arts_13967643']The interconnectedness, both savage and beautiful, of the animal and human world is the message thrumming through these essays. Earhart’s possible fate notwithstanding, it’s, of course, nonhuman creatures who suffer most from their contact with us. “The greatest lie that humans ever told is that the Earth is ours, and at our disposal. … We must cease from telling that lie because the world is so rare, and so wildly fine.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Vanishing Treasures\u003c/em> makes readers see, \u003cem>really see\u003c/em>, some of the miraculous creatures we still share this fragile world with. Like any wise environmentalist, Rundell also leavens terror with possibility. I leave you, then, with Rundell’s tribute to the Greenland shark, “the planet’s oldest vertebrate”; an animal who can live over 500 years. Rundell says:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\n\u003cdiv>\n\u003cp>… I find the very idea of them hopeful. They will see us pass through whichever spinning chaos we may currently be living through, … and they will live through the currently unimagined things that will come after that: the transformations, revelations, the possible liberations. That is their beauty and it’s breathtaking: they go on. These slow, odorous, half-blind creatures are perhaps the closest thing to eternal this planet has to offer.\u003c/p>\n\u003c/div>\n\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cdiv>\n\u003chr>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>‘Vanishing Treasures: A Bestiary of Extraordinary Endangered Creatures’ by Katherine Rundell is out on Nov. 12, via Doubleday.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003c/div>\n\n",

Her 2013 middle-grade children’s book \u003cem>Rooftoppers \u003c/em>drew inspiration from her own adventures as an undergraduate at Oxford, where she climbed brick walls and scaled drainpipes to take in the views of that “city of dreaming spires” from on high. More recently, Rundell has written \u003cem>Super-Infinite\u003c/em>, an acclaimed biography of the metaphysical poet John Donne, as well as a bestselling fantasy novel, called \u003cem>Impossible Creatures\u003c/em>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Chesterton: “The world will never starve for want of wonders; but only for want of wonder.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

For anyone whose capacity for wonder could use a jumpstart, Rundell’s essays are essential reading. Listen, for instance, to these sentences from the opening paragraph of her essay on the swift — a common creature so named because it’s the fastest bird in flight:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\n\u003cdiv>\n\u003cp>The swift is sky-suited like no other bird. Weighing less than a hen’s egg, with wings like a scythe and a tail like a fork, it eats and sleeps on the wing. … [Swifts] mate in brief mid-sky collisions, the only birds to do so, and to wash they hunt down clouds and fly through gentle rain, slowly, wings outstretched.\u003c/p>\n\u003c/div>\n\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>As you can hear, Rundell’s essays are no mere Wikipedia entries about the natural world; rather, they’re deeply-felt, lyrical, often witty, and occasionally grisly evocations of the living marvels she’s surveying. Her essay on “The Hermit Crab,” for instance, begins with a jolt: “It was, perhaps, a hermit crab that ate Amelia Earhart.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Rundell goes on to explain: It seems that the uninhabited island in the Western Pacific where \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2024/01/29/1227574179/amelia-earharts-lost-plane-howland-island\">Earhart’s plane\u003c/a> may have gone down and where 13 (but, only 13) human bones were discovered that matched Earhart’s size is to this day also “home to a colony of coconut hermit crabs: the world’s largest land crab. … The oldest [crabs] live to more than a hundred, and grow to be up to 40 inches across: too large to fit in a bathtub, exactly the right size for a nightmare.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Earhart’s possible fate notwithstanding, it’s, of course, nonhuman creatures who suffer most from their contact with us. “The greatest lie that humans ever told is that the Earth is ours, and at our disposal. … We must cease from telling that lie because the world is so rare, and so wildly fine.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Vanishing Treasures\u003c/em> makes readers see, \u003cem>really see\u003c/em>, some of the miraculous creatures we still share this fragile world with.

I leave you, then, with Rundell’s tribute to the Greenland shark, “the planet’s oldest vertebrate”; an animal who can live over 500 years. Rundell says:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\n\u003cdiv>\n\u003cp>… I find the very idea of them hopeful. They will see us pass through whichever spinning chaos we may currently be living through, … and they will live through the currently unimagined things that will come after that: the transformations, revelations, the possible liberations.

"content": "\u003cp>Inspiration can spark in the most mundane circumstances. In 1964, a young composer named Terry Riley was on his way to work — playing ragtime piano at San Francisco’s Gold Street Saloon — when he had a light bulb moment that would alter the American musical landscape. A tiny, hiccuping, 2-note seed unexpectedly came to him.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I was riding to work on the bus when I heard this first line come into my consciousness like somebody was playing it to me,” Riley recalls. “And I got quite excited, so as soon as I got off work that night, I went home and wrote down the first line.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qzmi7Wm10Y0\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That seed blossomed into \u003cem>In C\u003c/em>, a piece which essentially launched the musical movement later known as minimalism.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the early ’60s, Riley was among a cohort of free-thinking West Coast musicians experimenting with music, especially tape loops, and psychedelic drugs. The rest of \u003cem>In C\u003c/em> came to him quickly, but even after he had gathered all the musical ingredients, the piece wasn’t quite ready for prime time.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“When we first started rehearsing it, nobody, including me, knew how to play it,” Riley says. “I had a kind of idea of how it should sound, but to rehearse it and actually turn it into music took a bit of doing.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It took some doing because one of the things that makes \u003cem>In C\u003c/em> innovative is that it carries so few guidelines. And that’s the idea — the composer gives up control to the performers. The score is just a single page containing 53 short musical “riffs” that any number of musicians can play in order, but at their discretion. Every performance, by design, will sound completely different.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside postid='arts_13967652']One challenge the players faced in those early rehearsals was the lack of a solid pulse, a kind of click track to keep the players together. Enter Steve Reich. He was among the musicians who helped Riley introduce the piece, along with other soon-to-be-legendary composers Morton Subotnick and Pauline Oliveros.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>William Robin, a University of Maryland music professor, has written about the history of the music in his book \u003cem>On Minimalism — Documenting a Musical Movement\u003c/em>, co-authored with Kerry O’Brien. He believes Reich’s contribution to \u003cem>In C\u003c/em> can’t be overstated. “Reich makes a simple but profound suggestion: What if a pianist simply plays two Cs high on the keyboard in octaves to start the piece and go continuously throughout?” Robin notes. “Basically it functions as a human metronome.” That pulse, he adds, is fundamental to the sound of \u003cem>In C\u003c/em>, giving it an infectious groove.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_13967715\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 2000px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-13967715\" src=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/11/riley.png\" alt=\"A young man in a shirt and vest plays a piano inside a bar.\" width=\"2000\" height=\"1488\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/11/riley.png 2000w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/11/riley-800x595.png 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/11/riley-1020x759.png 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/11/riley-160x119.png 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/11/riley-768x571.png 768w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/11/riley-1536x1143.png 1536w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/11/riley-1920x1428.png 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2000px) 100vw, 2000px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Terry Riley in 1961 at San Francisco’s Gold Street Saloon, where he played ragtime piano. Three years later, on a bus ride to the Saloon, he first formed the idea for ‘In C.’ \u003ccite>(Terry Riley Archives)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Finally, on Nov. 4, 1964, Riley and his group of like-minded musicians debuted \u003cem>In C\u003c/em> at San Francisco’s Tape Music Center, a haven of electronic and new music. Four days later, the headline for a review of the concert in the \u003cem>San Francisco Chronicle\u003c/em> read: “Music Like none Other on Earth.” The reviewer, Alfred Frankenstein, ended by declaring \u003cem>In C\u003c/em> “the evening’s masterpiece.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Cellist Maya Beiser agrees. She first heard \u003cem>In C\u003c/em> as a 17-year-old high schooler who stumbled across the LP in a record shop. “I immediately felt that it was such a genius thing, akin to E=mc\u003csup>2\u003c/sup>,” she says. “The idea of an open score was just so beautiful and revolutionary. I was blown away by that simple idea and by the notion of freedom that it presented.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside postid='arts_13967625']Beiser released her own unique version of \u003cem>In C\u003c/em> earlier this year. Her experiment began as an off-the-cuff gift for Riley, then after his blessing, it blossomed into a recording.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Appropriate to Riley’s improvisatory way of thinking, Beiser and her recording engineer began with a mostly blank slate, just Riley’s spartan score. “We started to kind of loop all those melodic modules and I literally found my way into it as I was going because I deliberately didn’t want to decide anything,” she recalls. Armed with just her cello, a looping machine and a pair of percussionists, Beiser emphasizes the deep, sometimes headbanging, grooves inherent in the music.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“She broke it down into sections and integrated each section very distinctly,” Riley says. “Something I hadn’t thought of doing myself. There’s always somebody finding new ways to use these materials.” In Beiser’s rendition, there’s a grungy section with whiffs of Led Zeppelin’s “Kashmir,” a vocal passage interlacing her voice and cello in a nod to the medieval hocket style of singing, and plenty of lovely droning with the low C string of Beiser’s processed cello ricocheting off the drummers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kMXABhDw5zw\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video\">\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Unlike Beiser’s mostly solo approach, \u003cem>In C\u003c/em> is usually played by at least a dozen or more musicians, which emphasizes its communal powers. “One of the things that \u003cem>In C\u003c/em> has done over the years, has helped to connect people of different backgrounds,” Riley says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That connection mushroomed in 1968, when Riley recorded \u003cem>In C\u003c/em> for Columbia Records. Suddenly, this strange new music was catapulted directly into the mainstream, while taking aim at the new, youthful counterculture. \u003cem>In C\u003c/em> was on the map, with an album that actually \u003cem>contained\u003c/em> a map to the piece itself.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This was an incredibly popular recording,” Robin says. “It stayed in Columbia’s catalog, unlike plenty of other avant-garde records. And one of the cool things is that it actually prints the full score for the piece on the sleeve of the record. So they were empowering people, potentially, to actually organize their own performances of this piece.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This was at a time, Robin points out, “when a lot of American composition is extremely inaccessible in terms of the musical language — composers writing highly atonal, cerebral scientific music.” \u003cem>In C\u003c/em>, in its singular way, thumbed its nose at the academy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside postid='arts_13967509']“Terry just came into it from a completely different place,” Beiser notes. “Because he studied in India, he was influenced by Indian classical music, by African music, by all these other non-Western traditions, and of course, free jazz improvisation.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Improvisation is at the heart of much of Riley’s music. And one way in which \u003cem>In C\u003c/em> takes a page from Indian classical music is that within strict parameters there’s room for the player to make their own decisions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“What makes \u003cem>In C\u003c/em> such a landmark work is that it is kind of right at the center of pushing the boundaries of what music could be,” Robin says, “while also having this incredibly rich and attractive soundscape that’s groovy in a way that pop music was groovy in the mid-’60s.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>In C\u003c/em> has been groovy enough to attract a surprisingly wide array of musicians. A brief survey of recordings includes: an\u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YGCp4PPaRSg&t=181s\"> orchestra of Chinese instruments\u003c/a> from Shanghai,\u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iDd9WY9ddDs\"> musicians\u003c/a> from West Africa, a Swiss\u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fQpHLbDI-b4&list=PLOpS8ze-MAmFecrwk9N0szxKWr4A5O0rS&index=8\"> industrial band\u003c/a>,\u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gO5xa01tfV8\"> Indian musicians\u003c/a> from Brooklyn, Japanese\u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fH0ml4yp-Rs\"> acid rock\u003c/a>, a group of\u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z7FmozBZBG8\"> 10 harpists\u003c/a> in Holland and an orchestra of\u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LmttdbOW3Ys\"> electric guitars\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LmttdbOW3Ys\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Riley’s piece also works perfectly in amateur settings. With his students, Robin organizes annual performances of \u003cem>In C\u003c/em>. “It is just one of those joyful experiences as a musician,” he says. “The nature of the music — it is at once fully notated, but it has the sound, the ethos, of this kind of communal jam session, where musicians are repeating these little riffs over and over and over again.” At Robin’s most recent performance in May, bassoon, tuba and piano traded riffs with banjo, vibraphones and Robin’s own alto sax, amid a wash of another dozen players.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Even at the beginning, Riley understood how \u003cem>In C\u003c/em> was influential. “Other composers were taking an interest in what I was doing,” he remembers. “So I knew that it was going to have some significance.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside postid='arts_13967351']It turned out to be game-changing. Both Philip Glass and Steve Reich quickly embraced Riley’s evolving repetition. It’s hard to imagine minimalist classics like Glass’\u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pRerJeYmUgY\"> \u003cem>Einstein on the Beach\u003c/em>\u003c/a> from 1976, or Reich’s\u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3ou9J844io0\"> \u003cem>Music for 18 Musicians\u003c/em>\u003c/a>, completed that same year, without \u003cem>In C\u003c/em>. And today, the music is all around us, from Taylor Swift’s song “\u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HpxX4ZE4KWE\">Peace\u003c/a>,” with its copycat Riley pulse, to music for television, film and\u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JAFIWlEUXoQ\"> commercials\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While we’re not living in the same counterculture-fueled moment as Riley was when he wrote his most famous piece, there is a strong appetite today for ambient and electronic music you can bliss out to, and for performances of \u003cem>In C\u003c/em> itself. “People want to go hear an hour of transcendent music,” Robin suggests. “And it’s a tribute to this lightning rod moment for Riley, where he put it all down to the endurance of minimalism as an artistic movement that’s been so profoundly influential on popular culture.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At 89, Riley still composes every day, with a view of Mount Fuji from his home in Japan. And he doesn’t mind looking back to that bus ride so long ago, and the spark of inspiration that helped ignite a musical movement with a piece of music that, after 60 years, continues to fascinate new audiences and evolve in the hands of anyone who plays it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“\u003cem>In C\u003c/em> is like one of your children,” he says with a wry chuckle. “They went out, became famous, did some good things, met some other people. And turned out to be something different than you imagined at the beginning.”\u003c/p>\n\n",

In 1964, a young composer named Terry Riley was on his way to work — playing ragtime piano at San Francisco’s Gold Street Saloon — when he had a light bulb moment that would alter the American musical landscape. A tiny, hiccuping, 2-note seed unexpectedly came to him.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I was riding to work on the bus when I heard this first line come into my consciousness like somebody was playing it to me,” Riley recalls. “And I got quite excited, so as soon as I got off work that night, I went home and wrote down the first line.”\u003c/p>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutube'>\n \u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutubeInside'>\n \u003ciframe\n loading='lazy'\n class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__youtubePlayer'\n type='text/html'\n src='//www.youtube.com/embed/qzmi7Wm10Y0'\n title='//www.youtube.com/embed/qzmi7Wm10Y0'\n allowfullscreen='true'\n style='border:0;'>\u003c/iframe>\n \u003c/span>\n \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cp>That seed blossomed into \u003cem>In C\u003c/em>, a piece which essentially launched the musical movement later known as minimalism.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the early ’60s, Riley was among a cohort of free-thinking West Coast musicians experimenting with music, especially tape loops, and psychedelic drugs. The rest of \u003cem>In C\u003c/em> came to him quickly, but even after he had gathered all the musical ingredients, the piece wasn’t quite ready for prime time.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Enter Steve Reich. He was among the musicians who helped Riley introduce the piece, along with other soon-to-be-legendary composers Morton Subotnick and Pauline Oliveros.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>William Robin, a University of Maryland music professor, has written about the history of the music in his book \u003cem>On Minimalism — Documenting a Musical Movement\u003c/em>, co-authored with Kerry O’Brien. He believes Reich’s contribution to \u003cem>In C\u003c/em> can’t be overstated. “Reich makes a simple but profound suggestion: What if a pianist simply plays two Cs high on the keyboard in octaves to start the piece and go continuously throughout?” Robin notes. “Basically it functions as a human metronome.” That pulse, he adds, is fundamental to the sound of \u003cem>In C\u003c/em>, giving it an infectious groove.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_13967715\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 2000px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-13967715\" src=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/11/riley.png\" alt=\"A young man in a shirt and vest plays a piano inside a bar.\" width=\"2000\" height=\"1488\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/11/riley.png 2000w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/11/riley-800x595.png 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/11/riley-1020x759.png 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/11/riley-160x119.png 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/11/riley-768x571.png 768w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/11/riley-1536x1143.png 1536w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/11/riley-1920x1428.png 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2000px) 100vw, 2000px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Terry Riley in 1961 at San Francisco’s Gold Street Saloon, where he played ragtime piano.

Four days later, the headline for a review of the concert in the \u003cem>San Francisco Chronicle\u003c/em> read: “Music Like none Other on Earth.” The reviewer, Alfred Frankenstein, ended by declaring \u003cem>In C\u003c/em> “the evening’s masterpiece.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Cellist Maya Beiser agrees. She first heard \u003cem>In C\u003c/em> as a 17-year-old high schooler who stumbled across the LP in a record shop. “I immediately felt that it was such a genius thing, akin to E=mc\u003csup>2\u003c/sup>,” she says. “The idea of an open score was just so beautiful and revolutionary.

Her experiment began as an off-the-cuff gift for Riley, then after his blessing, it blossomed into a recording.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Appropriate to Riley’s improvisatory way of thinking, Beiser and her recording engineer began with a mostly blank slate, just Riley’s spartan score. “We started to kind of loop all those melodic modules and I literally found my way into it as I was going because I deliberately didn’t want to decide anything,” she recalls. Armed with just her cello, a looping machine and a pair of percussionists, Beiser emphasizes the deep, sometimes headbanging, grooves inherent in the music.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“She broke it down into sections and integrated each section very distinctly,” Riley says. “Something I hadn’t thought of doing myself. There’s always somebody finding new ways to use these materials.” In Beiser’s rendition, there’s a grungy section with whiffs of Led Zeppelin’s “Kashmir,” a vocal passage interlacing her voice and cello in a nod to the medieval hocket style of singing, and plenty of lovely droning with the low C string of Beiser’s processed cello ricocheting off the drummers.\u003c/p>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutube'>\n \u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutubeInside'>\n \u003ciframe\n loading='lazy'\n class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__youtubePlayer'\n type='text/html'\n src='//www.youtube.com/embed/kMXABhDw5zw'\n title='//www.youtube.com/embed/kMXABhDw5zw'\n allowfullscreen='true'\n style='border:0;'>\u003c/iframe>\n \u003c/span>\n \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cfigure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video\">\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Unlike Beiser’s mostly solo approach, \u003cem>In C\u003c/em> is usually played by at least a dozen or more musicians, which emphasizes its communal powers. “One of the things that \u003cem>In C\u003c/em> has done over the years, has helped to connect people of different backgrounds,” Riley says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That connection mushroomed in 1968, when Riley recorded \u003cem>In C\u003c/em> for Columbia Records. Suddenly, this strange new music was catapulted directly into the mainstream, while taking aim at the new, youthful counterculture. \u003cem>In C\u003c/em> was on the map, with an album that actually \u003cem>contained\u003c/em> a map to the piece itself.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This was an incredibly popular recording,” Robin says. “It stayed in Columbia’s catalog, unlike plenty of other avant-garde records. And one of the cool things is that it actually prints the full score for the piece on the sleeve of the record. So they were empowering people, potentially, to actually organize their own performances of this piece.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This was at a time, Robin points out, “when a lot of American composition is extremely inaccessible in terms of the musical language — composers writing highly atonal, cerebral scientific music.” \u003cem>In C\u003c/em>, in its singular way, thumbed its nose at the academy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

And one way in which \u003cem>In C\u003c/em> takes a page from Indian classical music is that within strict parameters there’s room for the player to make their own decisions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“What makes \u003cem>In C\u003c/em> such a landmark work is that it is kind of right at the center of pushing the boundaries of what music could be,” Robin says, “while also having this incredibly rich and attractive soundscape that’s groovy in a way that pop music was groovy in the mid-’60s.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>In C\u003c/em> has been groovy enough to attract a surprisingly wide array of musicians.
