  • From the Books to the Social Justice Warriors: The Muggles of Dumbledore’s Army

    May 8, 2015
    by Tessel Rijneveldshoek, WB Column

    We all know that there is something about books that changes you – perhaps only for a little while, when you are reading the book. In other cases the influence of a book, or several books, stretches much farther than “just” the appreciation for a story. Sometimes, books activate people to do great things –…

    Recent Ouija: Lamenting Between Artifice and Reality

    May 4, 2015
    by Art, Ilona Roesli, Reviews

    Although the majestic works of Henri Matisse have been luring numerous visitors to the Stedelijk Museum, it is its basement that confirms the experimental and contemporary course that the museum has set out to follow when Beatrix Ruf took up position as director last November. Titled Recent Ouija, the exhibition of the works of Ed…

    Revolution in the Bed: In Defence of Sleep

    April 26, 2015
    by Essay, Isabel Harlaar, WB Column

    Meet the white-crowned sparrow. Although it might look like any regular North American bird (albeit very cute and fluffy), the zonotrichia leucophrys has a distinguishing factor that sets it apart from our Dutch mus: its ability to stay awake for seven days during its migration. Over the past few years, various American universities and research…

  • Highlander – There Is Only One

    Highlander – There Is Only One

    April 23, 2015
    by Film, Jules Schlicher, Reviews

    Everyone has fond memories of a lot of films from their childhood that raise those films above and beyond everything they see afterwards. For many, those films are products from the masterminds at Disney, or the work of directors like Spielberg. Then there are the more obscure titles that just happened to be in the…
