Chicago Humanities Festival

Chicago Humanities Festival

The Chicago Humanities Festival connects people to the ideas that shape and define us, and promotes the lifelong exploration of what it means to be human. As the Festival approaches its 30th anniversary, we have grown from a one-day celebration of the humanities into a year-round festival of arts and ideas. We present over 130 events annually, in venues across the Chicago area (from Evanston to Englewood, the Loop to the South Shore), including two festivals (Fall Festival, Spring Festival), and partnerships with the region’s most prestigious cultural institutions and universities. Our hope is that audiences leave Festival programs transformed-inspired by a shared experience and with new insights and perspectives.

    If Jimmy was white, nobody would know his name. Listen to all his recordings on youtube, I don't get it. He wrote 6 or 7 great songs but most of live recordings are pretty rough. Sorry.

    I love the guy, have been a big fan since the Twang Bar King and Discipline era (well shortly thereafter. I found him around 1985). So this isn't just typical internet criticism, but - Couldn't he find a more choice shirt for this very public appearance!? It looks like he was under the car, when someone reminded him "Hey, you've got that talk at the CHF in an thirty minutes." "I do!!?? Holy schlitz!!" Looks like he's just come from an episode of "Cops" if anyone recalls that (awful) show.

    Temple Grandin. Much of what you say is so good for all sorts of people. So good for learning how to sell yourself, how to prepare for getting a job, or how to treat children as children. All sorts of children, as all sorts have different learning skills.

    Temple Grandin. I did pianting at university, went to Chelsea Art School, a degree course. Well, I learnt when painting that the eye zooms in so much on details you look at, changing its light reading so as to see the detail properly that you imediately see say, the leaves on the tree outside a window and when you go back to looking at the inside of a room you change light reading, pupil size, so fast without even realising you have adapted to lower light levels, so that you can see the inside of the room perfectly. Another part of this is that a person, unlike a camera puts together the two bits of the picture, outside the window and inside the room, in your head, so that the redulting image comes out with the whites outside the window seeming to be the same as those within, when the light within is so much darker. This maybe useless information to you. We dont see like a cameras do at all. The fotographed window comes out bleached out just white, while the room comes out how you see it as being or the roo, unless you set the camera for what is boutside the window, in sunlight, then then what is in he room comes out comes out too dark but the things outside the window comes out perfectly. I have heard that some autists are very good at distinguishing differences in tone, which colour is lighter and which darker when the difference is small, and their being somewhat different colours makes this hard to decipher. This gives these autists some specialist jobs.

    They used to also say that autists are narcisists. As in cannot see anyone but themselves or so it is inclined to seem as they dont appear to react to people, because they were bad at looking at, mirroring people, using facial expresions to express themselves. Are to busy noticing how others feel to cope with responding to them, ditto. Get too excited to do any more than try to cop with their own emotions. That is how I remember thngideas on autidm being in the sixties. The result of us all deciding that autist were narcisists was, that they started to make them stop stimming to try to oblige them, who can be so sensitive to others in a quiet way, be sensitve and loving or, what they were but did not show. It is so very wrong I think to say that they are not aware of others because they dont respond to others. Guy Shahar talking of his autist son in a TED talk, son who at six mounths or some such, sat and put food in his mouth but at a year old had to be spoon fed and spent his time lying on the floor pushing his toy car back and forward and growling at anyone who came near. Guy Shahar, His father looked up centers to help his son and sent him to one such in Israel whose mother branch started in Switzerland, where they had his son sitting in a chair eating on his own in twenty four hours! How? They organised for spaces in which they gave such children therapy, To be free of the things that bother the neuro divergent. Flickering lights, too much light, sounds, etc, that they cannot bare and also .... they had the adult therapusts who looked after each child, they helped children on a one to one basis in their own room, being people who, while with the autist children they do therapy with, kept their emotions positive, had good vibs. So, good vibs is part what such children really need. Suppose the children have to learn to deal with some bad vibs in the long run. It seems that autists are very sensitive to others without making any exterior demonstration of this. The importanceof mentioning this andbitbis great, is that the idea that autists are narcisists, and have to be obliged to think of others instead of stimming, lead therpists to use aversion therapy on them for stimming in an attemot to make tgem lve for others as well as themselves. This use of aversion therapy leadin some cases to such tremendous cruelty that in one which in one Baptist center, I heard on, CNN I think it was, it lead to them giving the autists electrick shocks with a taser or some such machine, as 'Aversion Therapy'! In this center the taser or some other electrick shock machine which they used was working badly and giving them bigger electrick shocks than they should ever have recieved, supposing they should recieve any, and tge use of electrick shocks to train autists still happens. I listened to the TED talk of the super attractive autist, Noah Bretton, who talked of a center where they are still giving autists electric shocks as aversion therapy! The idea that they are narcisists has been so awful for them and persists so in the eyes of those who know little about them, that it should be remembered and decried publicly. We still need to fight against autists being given aversion therapy. Some autists are extremely given to trying make a good atmosphere for those around them, for trying to give them good vibs, though ithey do so in a pretty invisible sort of way for The neuroo normal or, neuro boring, for. those who express themselves verbally. An autist told me that those who are like that who are extrmely internaly given to helping otgers are one type of autist, and said tgat such can also quietly take the agressive and help stop the agressive.

    Jeffrey S. Cramer's footnote (214): "Despite descriptions to the contrary by various authors, Thoreau, with few exceptions, referred to his domicile as a house, including in the first sentence of the book. He called it a homestead once, a cabin and a hut twice, a lodge and an apartment three times, and a dwelling four times."

    Great content … but .. Ritchie Blackmore was contemporary with all of them in the 60’s (the three usual suspects plus Jimi) … he was a way better player … now forgotten apparently. He was the genius who drove two huge influential bands Deep Purple and Rainbow .. lest we forget .. as he perhaps may be gone in a few years. ✌🏼

    I am a 48 year old trauma and sex therapist. I have just awoken to the idea that I am on the "spectrum." this week. I wish I had known this sooner in life, but maybe if I had known how society would label me I would not have been brave enough to become a counselor. I hope that I can use my difficulties in life to make life better for others. That has always been my goal as a counselor. I am so grateful to Temple Grandin because I can relate to what is being said. I didn't even understand that thinking in pictures is different. I have a lot of ideas from my 15 years of being in human services that I think could really make a difference. I think I could help people in the mental health crisis arena in a way that would save more lives and be more cost effective. I wish I knew how to get decision makers to hear my ideas. Maybe if I try my best I can find a way to be heard. Thank you Temple Grandin for helping people like me and also people in general. Helping people is noble.

    I hope this doesn’t come off as offensive, but I’ve noticed that the earlier a parent knows about their child’s autism, the more likely they are to be low functioning. Idk maybe I’m crazy for thinking this- it just seems like the parents either baby the kids or treat the kid like they’re stupid when they clearly aren’t. I’m not sure if it also has anything to do with a surplus of information yet a lack of answers. Just trying to figure out a simple chemistry problem is so obnoxiously frustrating because all you get bombarded with are pay to get the answer sites! I want an article with a list of formulas, their relationships, what each letter means, their units, and other such important things!!! I think autism could be like play-doh perhaps. If you just take it out of the container and leave it there, itll dry out and without any accommodations whatsoever autistic children may feel bored or unaccomplished depending on the task. If you keep it in the container and never take it out it cannot be molded into a shape. Or if you over protect your autistic child they can’t grow at all when they may want to. If you however take the play-doh out and mold it before putting it back in the container, it won’t dry out and is now ready to be molded! Or if you let an autistic child explore and learn with the necessary aid (the container could be headphones or a language board etc.)

    As I am listening to this and her critic of the universities, I read the news on how hundreds of demonstrators have been arrested at university campuses across the US over the past 24 hours. Can you imagine the Iranian leader (a mass murderer on the level of a Hitler) has congratulated American students for protesting Israel! Camille is prophetic.

    I was raised by the Fonz, watching Happy Days in series and sitcom 8 times a day through the entire 70s as a kid. My morals now are pretty much the Fonz's morals (and probably also Gary Marshall) due to this. I even have the Fonz's phobias like liver, his disdain for over-indulging children, and admitting he is wrong lol. Lots of other things I now notice in adult life came from this.

    He said it right he’s not a good guitarist but he found his technique with pedals and computers, if you take all that equipment from him he wouldn’t even be average,but you have to acknowledge him on the technical side he is great, it’s all about sounds and this guy got all of them, unlike Hendrix he had two pedals, but if you took them pedals away he still was a great rhythm and lead guitarist, that’s why Jimi is goat of guitar players and Adrian is the goat of tech and computer sounds
