Come vede il mondo una persona autistica? Perché fa tutti quei gesti? Come si sente? È felice? Sono in molti a porsi simili domande sull'autismo; eppure le risposte, di norma, provengono da persone non autistiche. Gli studi scientifici, infatti, hanno sempre preso avvio da un'interpretazione basata sul quadro di riferimento dei «neurotipici», inducendoci a considerare l'autismo da una prospettiva esterna e, pertanto, priva della coerenza necessaria per comprenderlo veramente. Questo libro, invece, dà finalmente voce all'autismo - grazie alla testimonianza diretta di Brigitte -, offrendo ai non autistici la possibilità di confrontarsi con un quadro di riferimento coerente: un'interpretazione molto più rispettosa dell'autismo e delle persone che ne sono affette. Con il contributo di Kim Thúy.

A new understanding of autism spectrum disorder.

In 2019 the musician, instrument maker and activist for those with albinism Lazarus has received international notoriety, released a full album, been the subject of a documentary and his own Afropop CloseUp.This week, the soundtrack for that documentary was released, but you could almost think of it as a remix album. Produced by The Very Best's Johan Hugo, much of the soundtrack is built on samples of Lazarus's vocals, drumming and homemade banjo-made-from-a-can—the canjo. Hugo was introduced to Lazarus's music while in Senegal where Mumford and Sons, who Hugo has produced, was playing with Baaba Maal. Ben Lovett, from the folk band, plays on the soundtrack as well.

Robert Dethier admet avoir enseveli et camouflé pendant trop d’années ses origines « Je ne suis ni blanc ni indien. Ma recherche identitaire passe désormais par ma musique. » , Robert Dethier se tourne vers des rythmes plus proches de sa nature natale: « Je viens du nord, du Lac Labelle où les montagnes et les lacs m’ont vu grandir. »Depuis qu’il a commencé à jouer de la batterie à l’âge de trois ans et fait siens les rythmes amérindiens et sa culture, Robert Dethier a développé une véritable passion pour la musique.

From opener ‘Boneshaker’ to closer ‘Rock ‘n’ Roll For Life’, a song held together with safety pins an’ sweat, Airbourne take us on a (wooden) rollercoaster ride devoid of anything that might slow the pace or stop the heart from pumping. With ‘Weapon Of War’ they touch on territory that demands a more reflective approach, but this does nothing to make the rock less potent, quite the opposite. At a time when the hard rock world is seeking a shot in its tattooed arm, Airbourne deliver a taut body of work cut with greater swagger, groove and conviction than ever before.
