Bobble in Basel!

Earlier this month, Bobby McFerrin and a cast of 20 incredible singers from around the world dazzled the Stimmen Festival in Basel with their performance of Bobble, Bobby’s new improvised opera with a wordless libretto. The performance retells and reimagines the biblical tale of the Tower of Babel, and our endless search for common language and true communication. This beautiful photo was taken by the Festival’s Artistic Director, Helmut Bürgel.

    A seabed of shipwrecks рутор зеркало The Great Lakes have the most shipwrecks per square mile among all bodies of water in the world largely due to the high shipping traffic in the 19th century and the lake’s volatile weather. Researchers know about the wrecks because reporting any commercial ship that sails on the lakes is required; from the early 19th century to the 20th century about 40000 ships sailed the Great Lakes Baillod said. There are about 6000 commercial vessels on the seabed of the Great Lakes lost to storms or other issues. In Lake Michigan alone there are over 200 shipwrecks waiting to be discovered according to Baillod who has created a database of these ships over the past three decades. https://rutorsite3s7oalfxlcv5kdk6opadvkoremcoyrdm75rgips6pv33did.net rutordeepeib6lopqoor55gfbnvh2zbsyxqpv5hnjg2qcji2x7sookqd onion Wrecks in the Great Lakes have been found since the 1960s but in recent years the rate of these finds has accelerated greatly in part due to media attention clearer waters and better technology Baillod said. Some wreck hunters and media outlets call this the golden age for shipwreck discoveries. “There’s a lot more shipwreck awareness now on the Great Lakes and people are looking down in the water at what’s on the bottom” he added. Part of the reason it’s easier to see in the water is thanks to quagga mussels — an invasive species that was introduced in the 1990s. The mollusks have filtered most of the lakes turning them from their old greenish hue which allowed for only a few feet of visibility to clear blue. Now the lakes have visibility of up to 50 to 100 feet 15 to 30.5 meters Baillod explained. “Tourism has popped up around paddle boarding and kayaking and these shipwrecks are visible from the surface because the water is so clear” he added.

The bones of its crew reveal what life was like And then there are advancements in technology. “Side-scan sonar used to cost 100000 back in 1980” he said. “The one we used to find this shipwreck was just over 10000. They’ve really come down in price.” The National Oceanographic and Atmospheric Administration or NOAA has a project in the works to map the bottom of the Great Lakes in high resolution by 2030. If the organization succeeds all shipwrecks will be found Baillod said. In the meantime Baillod said he hopes he and his team will continue to discover missing shipwrecks from his database in the coming years and bring along citizen scientists for the ride: “I keep looking and I don’t doubt that we’ll keep finding.”

    Elusive shipwreck found in Lake Michigan over 100 years after sinking rutorcoolfldlmrpalkmfklw3nyzad6b6fycdtof3xbnixkerr47udyd onion A “ghost ship” that sank in Lake Michigan nearly 140 years ago and eluded several search efforts over the past five decades has been found according to researchers with the Wisconsin Underwater Archeology Association. The wooden schooner got caught in a storm in the dead of night and went down in September 1886. In the weeks after a lighthouse keeper reported the ship’s masts breaking the lake surface and fishermen caught pieces of the vessel in their nets. Still wreck hunters were unable to track down the ship’s location — until now. https://rutorcoolfldlmrpalkmfklw3nyzad6b6fycdtof3xbnixkerr47udyd.net rutordark63xripv2a3skfrgjonvr3rqawcdpj2zcbw3sigkn6l3xpad onion Earlier this year a team of researchers with the Wisconsin Underwater Archeology Association and Wisconsin Historical Society located the shipwreck off the coastal town of Baileys Harbor Wisconsin the association announced on Sunday. Named the F.J. King the ship had become a legend within the Wisconsin wreck hunter community for its elusive nature said maritime historian Brendon Baillod principal investigator and project lead of the discovery. “We really wanted to solve this mystery and we didn’t expect to” Baillod told CNN. “The ship seemed to have just vanished into thin air. … I actually couldn’t believe we found it.” The wreck is just one of many that have been found in the Great Lakes in recent years and there are still hundreds left to be recovered in Lake Michigan alone according to Baillod. The ‘ghost ship’ Built in 1867 the F.J. King plied the waters of the Great Lakes for the purpose of trans-lake commerce. The ship transported grains during a time when Wisconsin served as the breadbasket of the United States. The 144-foot-long 44-meter vessel also carried cargo including iron ore lumber and more. The ship had a lucrative 19-year career until that September night when a gale-force wind caused its seams to break apart according to the announcement. The captain William Griffin ordered the crew to evacuate on the ship’s yawl boat from where they watched the F.J. King sink bow first.
