Dear Cathy, Ma, Alden, Steve, Annie, Sandy, All,

Recently found these articles about the symphony you created in Pendleton, Oregon (in 1986!) ... Super to read this history too here ...

(Pic of Steve ...)

"PENDLETON Oregon East Symphony to present ‘Sunrise Mass’ "

https://www.eastoregonian.com/community/news/pendleton-oregon-east-symphony-to-present-sunrise-mass/article_0b4caa53-5aab-5b06-bcd8-845e9910f413.html


"Playing For Keeps: Pendleton's String Education Program" ...

...

"Flutist and charter symphony member Cathy Muller recalls talking with her husband, Steve, about the need for a regular musical activity for adult players they knew.

"It's very difficult to have the self-discipline to practice and make music when there isn't a goal or a reason to," Muller said. "We just sat down and made a list of all the people that we knew who would potentially be interested in playing. And they came from Boardman and Irrigon and Hermiston and Umatilla, and all around the region.” ...

https://www.opb.org/radio/article/pendleton-string-education-program/

What was having the Norwegian composer, Ola Gjeilo, like and when he conducted Sunrise Mass, Steve?

Warmly, Scotty


PS

More about aging reversal and longevity genetics' research here in the /longevity label with a George Church focus - http://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2022/01/balsam-fir.html ... Found it interesting that he says his thinking about aging reversal doesn't point toward Immortality but it could :) kinda wild ... And worthy of skepticism ... 


PPS

And a couple of upcoming proposed Longevity Genetics' papers and projects in significantly updated home page - ScottMacLeod.com ...

Agreed, Terri: I'd characterize the first culture giving rise to internet as 
'1. technomeritocratic' (from a course I teach on Soc & Info Tech - http://socinfotech.pbworks.com/w/page/17175617/Oct%2010%202007%20Soc%20and%20Info%20Tech%20course%20transcript) 2: Hacker 3: Communitarian & 4: Entrepreneurial, as sociology not business 'theory' (http://worlduniversityandschool.org/InfoTechNetworkSocGlobalUniv.html)

Ed,

Thank you for 'The Overstory.' Welcome back to the SF Bay Area too.

Interesting review here - 

The Novel That Asks, ‘What Went Wrong With Mankind?’

Richard Powers’s climate-themed epic, The Overstory, embraces a dark optimism about the fate of humanity.

By Nathaniel Rich

https://www.theatlantic.com/magazine/archive/2018/06/richard-powers-the-overstory/559106/


Have you read it? I appreciate it's focus on trees!

Fond regards, Scott

Ed, 

Thank you again for "The Overstory" so much! Am enjoying this book - http://www.richardpowers.net/the-overstory/ - by Richard Powers which you gave me - 8 or so main characters, some 'tree hugging' environmentalists & activists - reminding a bit of my being involved in the Cathedral Forest Nonviolent Action Group in Portland, Oregon, and on the MIddle Fork of the Santiam river in the Cascades too, in the first half of the 1980s, and of the hippy environmentalist alternative culture in the air re Reed as well, and re the Portland Quaker Meeting (Multnomah Monthly Meeting) at the time too. I hadn't heard about anything called 'the late twentieth-century Timber Wars of the Pacific Northwest and beyond' ... but which strikes me as possibly apt now, and I'll learn more as I read further. Thanks so much again, Ed, 

Fondly, Scott

PS 
And as this coronavirus pandemic non-Epidemic winds down ...  I continue to call for abolition - 
http://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2022/01/balsam-fir.html (and see Minute 8 and what Google may be doing in this Minute too)
 of the illegal sex trade ... & Homepage is updated significantly, (STEM) research and creative wise and in so many other ways - ScottMacLeod.com - and search on the word 'abolition' on it too. Yet to add Immortality but 'Longevity Genetics' is there too, as is 'aging reversal' :)


How are you? And are we heading for a hike in Marin this weekend? It would be nice to see you!

Hi Ed, 

For some reason, and for the first time ever - and right in the middle of attending a Federal National Science Foundation office hours (regarding potential grant application) - Navin Dosh,i just earlier, had a box of lemons from tree put, by the gardener, by his Ganesh statue at the front of the house. Unfortunately, the gardener has occasionally been using RoundUp, or similar herbicide, I've noticed ... and this concerns me, safety and health wise. (And re "The Overstory' environmental activism too).

Am curious if moving back into 670A Ridgecrest Road, Canyon is an emerging possibility, and whether another reason would be for safety from insecticides around 1749 Arlington (along with that this 'safe house' isn't really safe either .. from the latent networks of violence among the intl illegal sex industry ... and in my ongoing calling for abolition of this too, for example). 

Thoughts, suggestions, questions, ideas? ... and do you have any insight as a retiring KP MD into what might be developing in Canyon, and regarding my moving back there (having written the Federal USPO form in renewing WUaS's PO Box in Canyon, that I am living in a safe house)? Thank you!

See you this weekend potentially! :)

Fond regards, 
Scott

Good to have met face-to-face Alexandra Medina-Borja, senior NSF Program Admin -  and some of her colleagues.

to me
Hi Scott,

Back to reading email.  
Thanks for the Atlantic article about Overstory.  As for embracing its “ dark optimism about the fate of humanity,"  I haven't gotten thorough the dark part yet.  
I set it down on the coffee table one sleep-deprived night at 2 a.m. and haven't touched it since.  I went back to bed, to sleep, and found myself sobbing.  It woke Valerie up!  She was a little alarmed, but she is acquainted with my episodic grief about the "fate of humanity" and went back to sleep.  

Anyhow, I've had a run of 4 or 5 nights now of sleeping straight through the night.  Still, arranging a later starting time for our hike sounds wise.  Waterfalls & trees. 

See you soon!
Ed

Hi Ed,


Thanks for the article and text message too - https://www.theatlantic.com/magazine/archive/2018/06/richard-powers-the-overstory/559106/. ... Sunday morning at 10:30 am at Good Earth in Fairfax possibly? (I recall coming back from Scotland in between age 16 & 17 I think and sobbing a lot - I think I was a bit like a fish out of water, culturally somehow, in Edinburgh at Fettes between my junior and senior years in high school studying in the 1st year 6th Form of A levels ... Talk more?).

I looked up Joergen Hoel from The Overstory' in the 1860s, fascinating character depiction, found - https://www.litcharts.com/lit/the-overstory/characters/jorgen-hoel

See you soon!

Scott

Ed, 

Found another review of 'The Overstory' which book I'm enjoying a lot ... 

https://www.scotsman.com/arts-and-culture/book-review-overstory-richard-powers-301503 ... From The Scotsman in Edinburgh ... 

(The review is too blunt, but it's another 'roadmap' into the book like The Atlantic's ...) Is there a review of Book Reviews' genre? Is there Scottish thinking in this one somehow too? Interesting to read that El Cerrito is mentioned in The Overstory, in this review too. Interesting to see too that Powers is a MacArthur foundation recipient ... Am enjoying the eco-activism ideas he shares in it as an excellent writer :)

Thank you again for the birthday gift! (if I may call it this:)

Are you reading this (and did I understand this correctly?) at the moment?

Fond regards, Scott
