Little Rabbit Foo Foo Teaches Flute

One of The Goblins Gets It
for solo flute
Pre-performance set-up: Blow up an inflatable rubber hammer. When sitting ready to pay, the flute is held in one hand, ready to play the note indicated. The other hand holds the inflatable hammer above the player's head.
Performance: The aim of the piece is to play the whisper tone indicated without deviating even slightly from that pitch. If the player does deviate from the pitch, the moment after they do so, they must bop themselves on the head once with the inflatable hammer, whilst still maintaining the exact pitch.
Obviously, keeping the exact pitch indicated whilst administering oneself with a bop is challenging, and if the whisper tone pitc...

John Humphrys: The Terrier of Today, in conversation with Justin Webb
In September 2019 John Humphrys left the Radio 4 Today programme after 32 years of forensically grilling figures in authority. As a presenter, he inspires love and loathing in equal measure. The Observer’s television critic once wrote that if he ever found himself sitting next to Humphrys at a dinner party he would probably drive a fork through his hand. The Tory politician Jonathan Aitken accused him of ‘poisoning the well of democratic debate’, a comment which prompted an outburst of support for Humphrys, with the Daily Mail describing him as ‘one of the most brilliant journalists in the country’.
In autumn 2019, as Humphrys stepped down after 32 years at Today and published a long-awaited memoir, A Day Like Today, he came to the Intelligence Squared stage to give an exclusive, behind-t...

If a global dust storm envelops the Red Planet at a time when Webb could see it, the powerful space telescope could gather information about the storm, adding to data from spacecraft on or close to the planet's surface."
