THERE IS NO MAESTRO!

the lecture for maestro was on last week... from what i've read it doesn't sound like a lecture as such, more of a book appreciation thing so i just skipped it... would be keen to know how people found it though!

Ohh, are you serious? LOL, I was imagining it to be some tsfx-like lecture thingo haha

[man0005]

not sounding too great if it just a "book appreciation" thing

[pi]

I'll just watch the videos they put on their site later

Haha don't quote me on it, but yeah I'm pretty sure it's not a lecture-lecture, someone correct me if I'm wrong (:

I went yesterday for the crucible. There not specific enough for year 12 knowledge, especially for context books I would advise not to go. For actual texts perhaps it would be good. I quote the guy saying "it's about celebrating texts as more as the study design,"

'Celebrating' Ransom. Is that even possible?

[man0005]

are you gonna go rohit?

[pi]

are you gonna go rohit?

Might not, based on chelseaFC's comments, I'll just go for the video they'll put online afterwards. It'll have all the talking and info, and I can watch it on public transport to and from school. Saves me a bit of time.

Why hasn't the 'Year of Wonders' video been released yet ?

I went to the Cosi one last year, the guest was the person who acted as Roy in the first production . The talk itself was more about background of Cosi but the questions raised by the audience was rather helpful.
