    Episode 50 - Ridge Vineyards - David Gates

    David Gates

    50 Episodes! In this milestone episode, I was chatting with Dave Gates, Head of Vineyard Operations and VP at Ridge Vineyards in Northern California.

    We discussed his interesting route into wine from his home farm in Central Minnesota, through agriculture in Southern California, to eventually Viticulture in UC Davis.

    Dave is now in his 34th year in Ridge and his encyclopaedic knowledge of vineyards, soils, climates, fruits and the wines they are able to produce is simply awe inspiring.

    I asked him about his favourite site (‘’like choosing children’’) and what excites him about Zinfandel in particular, as it is the grape most associated with Ridge (65% of production).

    Of course, we mentioned the legendary Paul Draper, founder of Ridge, now in his mid-80’s, who is still involved in some key events in the winery’s calendar.

    we also talked about the challenges of water shortages, the old, engrafted zinfandel vines, his experience as a wine blender and as tradition of the podcast dictates, his Desert Island wines of choice. Enjoy!

    Il fantasma di Azzurrina

    Il fantasma di Azzurrina
    Nel castello di Montebello di Torriana, in provincia di Rimini, si racconta di come il fantasma di una bambina albina di nome Azzurrina, vissuta nel medioevo, si manifesti periodicamente e sia stato addirittura possibile documentarne l’esistenza. Quanto c’è di vero in questa storia?

    Ep 53: How to read an Audiogram

    Ep 53: How to read an Audiogram

    An audiogram is a graph of information of someone's hearing abilities.

    When you see the graph, on the y-axis (left-hand side), you'll see your hearing levels in decibels. On the x-axis (right side) you'll see the frequencies in hertz.

    When you get to a hearing aid dispensers office and take your hearing test you'll see a blue and red line. The red line represents your red line and the blue line represents your left ear.

    In terms of the hearing levels:

    0-20 is considered normal hearing

    20-40 you have a mild hearing loss

    40-70 you have a moderate hearing loss

    70-90 is severe hearing loss

    90 and above is considered a profound hearing loss.

     

    Chis will also go over a sample of a few examples if hearing exams so you can get a better understanding.

    Ep 43: Top 3 Questions When Buying Hearing Aids

    1) What's the best hearing aid for me?
    This will depend on your hearing test results and your lifestyle. These devices shouldn't be purchased based on looks. You should choose the ones that fit your lifestyle.

    At our office, when it comes to standard items you can get them the same day! Custom devices take on average a week to come in.

    Professor Elizabeth Prettejohn: The Transhistory of Art?

    Professor  Elizabeth Prettejohn: The Transhistory of Art?
    Professor Elizabeth Prettejohn (University of York) The Transhistory of Art? After a period in which the academic study of the history of art has concentrated overwhelmingly on contemporary contexts, there are signs of new thought on the longer histories of artworks, including a novel attention to the changes they undergo as material objects. These concerns -- in part revivals of interests held by the great art historians of previous generations, in part new ways of thinking -- are in my view welcome, but they raise questions both urgent and highly likely to be contentious about how art history is to be practised as an academic discipline. In this talk I will outline the issues that seem to me most challenging, and illustrate them with an example from my own work on the modern reception of ancient sculpture.

    Professor Iain Fenlon: Mobile Madonna: The History of a Venetian Icon

    Professor Iain Fenlon: Mobile Madonna: The History of a Venetian Icon
    Professor Iain Fenlon (University of Cambridge) Mobile Madonna: The History of a Venetian Icon The Madonna Nicopeia is one of a large number of religious images and sculptures brought to Venice from the Middle East during the Middle Ages, much of it booty captured during the Fourth Crusade. It was believed that this icon, which consists of a central image of the Virgin framed by sixteen small enamels, had brought good fortune to those who had carried it in battle in Asia Minor, and the Venetians venerated it in the hope that it would bring similar blessings upon the Republic. Throughout the centuries, it was the Nicopeia that was publicly carried in procession to ask for deliverance from the plague, and it was her image that graced the title-pages of editions of the Litany of the Blessed Virgin Mary recited ‘in time of war’. This paper charts the undulating process of renewal and re-invention that accompanied the evolution of the cult surrounding the icon, and its consequences for musical composition.

    Professor Bronwen Wilson: Art (History) Matters

    Professor Bronwen Wilson: Art (History) Matters
    Professor Bronwen Wilson (Sainsbury Centre for Art, University of East Anglia) Art (History) Matters Responding to the premise that our historical distance from artworks renders our engagement with them variable and contingent, this talk considers dynamic relations between making and viewing in paintings by Giovanni Battista Moroni, Annibale Carracci, and Caravaggio. The works considered here solicit viewers’ involvement with them through the crafted materiality of their surfaces, and through the blurring of boundaries between genres. Activating responses by individuals to them, and fostering communication and debate about matters of concern, these works attest to how the past impinges upon the present.

    Dr Astrid Swenson: Context in International Context

    Dr Astrid Swenson: Context in International Context
    Dr Astrid Swenson (Brunel University) Context in International Context The paper will look at how ideas about the 'right' context for art and architecture evolved in relation to international relations since the French Revolution. The Revolutionary Wars and their unprecedented destruction and art looting had a formative effect on debates about context (not least in forcing the internationally community to find a common solution towards either accepting the change of context or creating the mechanisms for restitution), but the debates continued long after the Congress of Vienna affecting the definition of art and heritage till the present.

    Professor Philippe de Montebello: Change as Constant

    Professor Philippe de Montebello: Change as Constant
    Humanitas Visiting Professor in the History of Art 2012-13 The Humanitas Chair in the History of Art has been made possible by the generous support of J E Safra. Professor Philippe de Montebello (Philippe de Montebello (Director Emeritus, The Metropolitan Museum of Art, Fiske Kimball Professor, Institute of Fine Arts, New York University) will give a series of three public lectures on The Multiple Lives of the Work of Art and participate in a concluding symposium. In his third and final lecture, Change as Constant, Philippe do Montebello will talk about how intrinsic and extrinsic factors account for the transformations in works of art over time as well as the receiver's responses. The lectures are free to attend and no registration is required. Information about the concluding symposium on Thursday 22 November will be posted shortly. Abstract The lectures, constructed around a number of case studies, look at works of art from a curatorial point of view; that is, one focusing primarily on their properties as objects. They will examine how the changing contexts of works of art and their transformations over time and space affect the viewer’s response(s) to them. A premise of these lectures is that no work appears to us today as it was originally conceived. It may undergo many transformations in the course of its life, from deliberate alterations to natural degradation, and at the same time, any response at historical distance is necessarily variable and contingent.
