In a world that often expects musicians to release the same record over and over again, LUMP are explorers on a mission forcing them through unexplored pathways, and Animal suggests that there is plenty of searching still left to be done. Initially thought to be a one off, Laura Marling and Tunng’s Mike Lindsay have structured a quest for alternate universes where the rules are completely different. As a result, LUMP continue to grow and change as they discover new parameters.
The sequencers that open ‘Bloom At Night’ establish a foundation while Marling invokes a Biblical fantasy: “Those who find themselves acclaimed go to God to get renamed/ it took one God seven days to go insane.” The insanity fragments with multiple Marlings singing “insane” while the bass comes in and moves the song into full bore as drums and bass are added to the mix, suggesting that this LUMP is a very different beast to the first.
Segueing into ‘Gamma Ray’, a heavy dose of percussion takes over creating a darker, primal groove. A disaffected, almost distracted Marling sings, “Licked with fire/ those old desires/ that live within.” Shifting towards a more human and humane voice she later adds, “The agony/ the fantasy/ something to be caged.” Warping beats and shifting lyrics develop most unsettlingly. By the end, Marling’s processed vocals add to the ever-shifting theme.
Written for her solo efforts, ‘Oberon’ was never able to find a home, but as the next to last track on Animal Lindsay gives it a gentle loving touch that works well as it moves into the finale, ‘Phantom Limb’. Not far from a bossa nova, the piece offers a fitting close. Tying things all together, Marling again recites the closing credits just as she did on the initial offering.
As a repository of influences that don’t fit within the constraints of their day jobs, Laura Marling and Mike Lindsay use LUMP to move farther afield, examining realms that may not be quite as fan friendly. Yet Animal proves that there is much to be gained from excursions that move into more uncharted territory.
At the end of a sizzling day the judges convened to deliver their verdicts on the best paintings in Bagni di Lucca’s 9th extempore painting competition last Sunday.
It’s not an easy task and, frankly, if the judges agreed among themselves, the spectators often had differing views. But this is the nature of art. Van Gogh never sold a painting in his life and who remembers much of the once popular Millais today?
Artistic Creation is certainly not an exact science and for us the real winners were those who organised the competition, the goodly affluence of people present, the lovely weather and the sheer energy of those artists who’d take the trouble to come along to Bagni di Lucca, some of them for the very first time, and so spread news to the rest of the world of our lovely part of the world.
There was real disagreement among us as to the winners, although each painting was seriously considered with an account of why it was chosen by the jury to receive a prize.
The children competing all won first prize just for entering. I think, anyway, that a prize should be offered to everyone who had the boldness to enter – although, of course, the prize winners did get a cash prize amounting up to four hundred euros.
Next year it’s going to be a very special year for the Extempore Art Competition. It’s its tenth anniversary. So all you budding Turners and Canalettos don’t forget to enrol!

Although corporate social responsibility is a relatively new concept for the Middle East, Booz & Company’s in-depth research illustrates how this complex undertaking can significantly contribute to regional development.

Sustainable economic development in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) will depend on job creation, education, poverty alleviation, and careful environmental management. While government, civil society organizations, and academic institutions should be involved in this effort, companies have a particularly important role to play. They must be involved and contribute to the betterment of the societies in which they operate. And, they can do this through corporate social responsibility (CSR) initiatives that align with national development objectives.
In line with this, Management consulting firm Booz & Company has conducted extensive interviews – and drawn on its work with CSR leaders in the Middle East – to define what CSR means in the region; study how CSR is practiced; identify best practices among CSR leaders; and propose how to build the corporate capacity for sustainable CSR practices.
Governments, private companies, civil society organizations, and academia will need to coordinate and commit themselves to sustainable development if the MENA region is to achieve its economic potential.
Indeed, the World Economic Forum estimates that to keep employment at 2011 levels, the region needs to create 75 million jobs by 2020 – a 43 percent increase on the number of jobs in 2011.
Moreover, job creation is not the only aspect of sustainable development that leaders must confront. There is also the environmental impact of a growing population and increased economic output on a fragile ecosystem. The Arab states have over 60 percent of the world’s oil reserves, but only 0.5 percent of its renewable fresh water resources. Consequently, most countries in the region suffer from severe water shortages, waste management and poor air quality.
The European Commission defined CSR in 2002 as “a concept whereby companies integrate social and environmental concerns in their business operations and in their interaction with their stakeholders on a voluntary basis.” Today, CSR needs to become a mainstream corporate principle in
