WAVES THROUGH TIME (100 cm x 120 cm, Acrylic on canvas.) My painting depicts Professor Jocelyn Bell Burnell, originally from Co. Armagh, who discovered pulsars in 1967. In the background is a statue of Lord Kelvin who was born in Belfast, became Professor of Natural Philosophy at Glasgow University, and is famous for his work on thermodynamics and the first transatlantic telegraph cable. The visible bandwidth of the electro-magnetic spectrum, in a "beam" suggested by the perspective of Kelvin's plinth, symbolises the role of radio waves in the work of both scientists, uniting them across time: the robed, patriarchal Victorian and the brilliant young woman of the swinging 1960s. Also shown is the constellation of Vulpecula ("the little fox") in which Bell discovered her pulsar, a rotating neutron star emitting bursts of electromagnetic radiation over interstellar time and space. This painting reflects my interest in local history, science and nature. #science #astronomy #astrophysics #thermodynamics #glasgow #belfast #lurgan #pulsars #jocelynbellburnell #lordkelvin https://www.instagram.com/p/ChbxyaID4nP/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Lord Caine Launches Operation Banner Exhibition in NI

Lord Caine launched an immersive Operation Banner exhibition at Brownlow House in Lurgan, showcasing military and police artifacts from the Troubles to commemorate the Armed Forces' service and sacrifices.  

Background of Operation Banner

Operation Banner represents the British Army's longest continuous deployment, spanning from 1969 to 2007. Over 250,000 personnel served during this period, striving to uphold democracy and the rule of law amidst a highly volatile environment. The exhibition not only honors their bravery but also educates the public about the complex and challenging nature of their mission. Without their efforts, the Peace Process, which paved the way for the current stability in Northern Ireland, would not have been possible.   Details of the Exhibition The Operation Banner exhibition is meticulously curated, featuring an array of regimental and police uniforms, personal kits, and deactivated and replica weapons. These artifacts were used by members of the Armed Forces and security personnel during the Troubles, offering a tangible connection to the past. Informative panels provide context, explaining the significance of each item and the role it played in the conflict. The immersive nature of the exhibition allows visitors to gain a deeper understanding of the challenges faced by those who served.  

Lord Caine’s Visit

Lord Caine's presence at the launch underscored the importance of the exhibition. In his speech, he paid tribute to the service and sacrifice of the Armed Forces. “It was a privilege to attend the Operation Banner exhibition and remember the service and sacrifice of our Armed Forces during the longest continuous deployment in the history of the British Army. Without their contribution and that of other members of the security forces including the Police, there would have been no Peace Process, and for that, they command our enduring respect,” he remarked. His visit highlighted the government's commitment to honoring those who served and ensuring their contributions are remembered.   Educational and Historical Importance The exhibition, organized by the office of the Northern Ireland Veterans’ Commissioner, serves as an important educational resource. It aims to foster a better understanding of the Troubles, particularly among younger generations who may not have lived through the conflict. By showcasing the real-life experiences of the Armed Forces, the exhibition helps to contextualize the historical events and the path to peace. The initiative also aligns with ongoing efforts to address the legacy of the Troubles and promote reconciliation.   Controversies and Reactions The launch of the exhibition comes at a time when the legacy of the Troubles remains a sensitive and contentious issue. The UK government's proposed Troubles legacy legislation has sparked debate, particularly its provisions for potential immunity from prosecution for those who cooperate with information recovery efforts. Critics argue this undermines justice for victims' families, while supporters believe it is a necessary step towards reconciliation. Lord Caine actively involves himself in discussions with victims' groups, seeking to balance the need for truth and justice with the aim of fostering long-term peace.   Closing Thoughts The Operation Banner exhibition at Brownlow House stands as a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by the Armed Forces during one of the most turbulent periods in Northern Ireland's history. By providing an immersive and educational experience, the exhibition ensures that the legacy of those who served is honored and remembered. As visitors engage with the displays, they gain a deeper appreciation for the complexities of the Troubles and the enduring importance of peace and reconciliation. The exhibition not only commemorates the past but also serves as a beacon of hope for a more peaceful future.   Sources: THX News, Northern Ireland Office & Lord Caine. Read the full article

@seafearing some songs in gaeilge for yooouuu

[warrior-wordsmith]

Are some TG Lurgan adaptations more direct than others? I feel like I was able to follow their version of When I’m Gone pretty well but some others like their Some Nights seemed to be pretty different from the English lyrics—I caught Oisin’s name and I know he’s not mentioned in the original song

[duine-aiteach]

You don’t want to know how many times I’ve listened to this cover in the past week. Absolutely nothing against Lil Nas X (I think he’s great) but this has wormed its way into my brain in a way the original hasn’t.
