  • C’MON C’MON – You Have To Keep Going

    May 9, 2022
    by column, Film, Julia Kaczmarek

    I used to watch plenty of movies, tv-series, and interviews with actors and directors, but since I started busy uni life – a combination of studying, meeting people, going to great places and working part-time as well, the time in front the cinema screen slowly disappeared from my life before I had the chance to…

    May 2, 2022
    by Arthur Mulder, column, Music

    Despite how personal some popular music may feel, it is almost always a group effort.

    Last time I went on a bit of a romantic tangent talking about Kid Icarus 1986 and how it adapts the Greek myth of Perseus, leaving the more obvious comparisons to other Greek myths for this piece. Namely how the protagonist of the series, Pit, looks a lot like Eros, better known by his Latin…

    Burnout’s Long Shadow

    April 14, 2022
    by column, Life, Reinier van der Plas

    Photo credit: borchee, iStock. If there is anything that can be called the affliction of our time, it is burnout. We all know burnout in one form or another, either having experienced it ourselves or knowing others who have. When faced with the question ‘how are you?’, ‘tired’ seems to be as acceptable an answer…
