The Lunchbox 2020-04-22: Happy Earth Day

Posted on 2020-04-22 by encaf1 Posted in The Lunchbox

On today’s show:

  • CHSR will be offering free advertising to local businesses in the Fredericton area that have been negatively impacted by the current pandemic. To participate, send a message including the name of the business and what services are available during the social distancing era to advertising@chsrfm.ca .
  • Out of the Cold Shelter needs towels. There is an URGENT and IMMEDIATE need for towels at the Out of The Cold Shelter in Fredericton. Since moving its operations from Brunswick Street to the Fredericton High School the number of homeless guests has more than doubled. The supply of 30+ towels brought to FHS from the Shelter is grossly inadequate for the 60+ guests.

    If you have any “usable” towels you are willing to donate please place them in a plastic bag and drop them off OUTSIDE the front doors of the Oromocto Baptist Church. They will be picked up daily, laundered and cycled into the rotations at FHS.

    The greatest need is bath towels but hand towels and face cloths would also be put to good use.
  • Interview: Richard Hornsby, on Remembering the Great War Through Music (2016)
  • Interview: Lois Macdonald-Laden, Felt Artist, recorded at the Odell Park Lodge (2019)

COVID-19 update:

  • The province announced no new cases of COVID-19 yesterday afternoon, leaving the total number of cases at 118. 
  • 102 people have recovered from the virus, leaving 16 active cases. 
  • Dr. Jennifer Russell announced public health is launching an online tool for residents to find their own test results instead of waiting for a call from public health. 
  • The federal and provincial governments announced more support for community organizations and non-profits. 
  • Fredericton Chamber of Commerce has released the application form for their scholarship. The deadline is May 29th at 4:00 PM.

On the show:

  • UNB Art Centre presents: Design Works Wednesdays – Create at Home Series
    Join the UNB Art Centre on Facebook for a series of FB LIVE workshops, Wednesdays 10:00 am – 11:00 am with our new ‘Create at Home’ series.

    First Session begins April 29th.

    Jody McLeary will be your teaching guide sharing a number of creative, fun, and easy skills for kids and kids at heart. With a passion for art and learning, Jody’s spunky style and unlimited creativity will introduce you to a whole new world of art exploration.  All projects will be made from supplies you already have in your home. Not only can you stay at home, you can create at home!

    Stay tuned to UNB Art Centre’s Facebook, Instagram and Twitter, as we post upcoming creative projects and the supplies that you will need weekly. Let’s make our stay at home more creative and productive!

    The UNB Art Centre galleries at Memorial Hall on the UNB campus are currently closed until further notice as a result of the Covid-19 emergency.

    Please follow our exhibits and programs on-line.
  • Imagining the Green New Deal – Thursday, April 23, 8pm
    Join the Council of Canadians Fredericton Chapter in imagining a Green New Deal. In this session we will look at a few bold proposals for real transformations in our response to COVID-19, and in our public services.

    You’ll hear from George Nickerson from Fredericton Local 054 of the Canadian Union of Postal Workers about their campaign called Delivering Community Power, which proposes to vastly reshape the services of Canada Post to include postal banking, clean energy generation, seniors’ care, and a made-in-Canada electric fleet of vehicles. 

    Green Jobs Oshawa organizer Rebecca Keetch will address her group’s bold and urgent proposal to retool the mostly vacant GM factory in Oshawa, Ontario, so it can produce medical equipment immediately, and over the longer term transition to manufacturing electric vehicles.

    We need to start imagining how we can rebuild our post-pandemic society so that it works for everyone and the planet. We can start now by supporting these two exciting proposals and start to think about creating our own bold proposals in our communities.

    REGISTER FOR THE WEBINAR HERE:  https://zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_NP579OgBTBOHEkR1KQn4aA

Although the session will be facilitated from a visual arts perspective, all creative disciplines are welcome to participate.

    Please join us at 7pm on Wednesdays and 3pm on Sundays, for as long as necessary.

    Upcoming sessions:

The Lunchbox 2020-04-20: COVID-19 update; NB Acts Dramaturge Announced; STU Journalism COVID-19 Documentary; music by Towanda and Scientists of Sound

Posted on 2020-04-21 by encaf1 Posted in The Lunchbox

On the show:

  • NOTABLE ACTS PLAYWRITING CONTEST DEADLINE APPROACHING AND DRAMATURGE IN RESIDENCE ANNOUNCED

    “There’s just [a few days] remaining before the deadline for this year’s NotaBle Acts playwriting contest (April 23 for the regular contest, May 22 for the school categories). While we are currently living in uncertain times due to the coronavirus, our contest is still on and operating as per usual. It’s too soon to predict how the pandemic might affect plans for this year’s summer festival, but perhaps the most important work that NotaBle Acts does takes place behind the scenes and out of the spotlight: the play development process that pairs our playwriting contest winners with one of Canada’s leading playwrights every year, allowing emerging playwrights to have their scripts mentored by an experienced professional. This is work that can take place under any conditions, including the physical distancing realities now in place, and therefore will proceed no matter what happens this summer.

    To that end, NotaBle Acts is thrilled to announce that our 2020 Playwright/Dramaturge in Residence, joining us through the generosity of artsnb‘s Artist in Residence program, will be Vern Thiessen. Based in Edmonton, Vern is one of Canada’s most acclaimed and accomplished playwrights, as well as an experienced dramaturge, director, actor, and theatre educator. Read more about Vern below, and for everything you need to know about our playwriting contest, check out the information elsewhere on this site. We look forward to receiving your plays soon!”
  • Bondo Picks Towanda: Another Bridge Burned
  • Alexandre Silberman, as part of his STU Journalism program, created this documentary on the impact of COVID-19 on the province.
  • Song: Scientists of Sound: The Beginning (Of the Beginning of the End)

COVID-19 update:

  • The province announced no new cases of COVID-19 yesterday afternoon, leaving the total number of cases at 118. 
  • 92 people have recovered from the virus. 
  • Dr. Jennifer Russell urges New Brunswickers to practice good mental health.
  • Prime Minister Trudeau extended the border closure for 30 days.

HitG 039: Stealing From Other Systems

Posted on 2020-04-15 by encaf1 Posted in Head In The Game

There’s probably no such thing as a perfect tabletop RPG system. Just about all of them make certain choices, compromises and sacrifices in order to express a core way to play, the mood and atmosphere of the game, and so forth.

Or maybe they just didn’t think of everything!

Fortunately, there are a lot of systems out there, and every once in a while, brand new mechanics are introduced. And, even better: you can incorporate them into your game!

This week, we talk about some of our favourite mechanics that came from other systems, and how we used them — as well as a few caveats.

Host: Mark, Chris
