Finally read this.

Amazing. Depicts a concise, comical & shocking POV about Muslims identity of all generations.

It’s written in such an open-minded way. Really highlighting that simple identities as a Muslim is a thing of the past. We’re so complex now.

And that is the message and energy I’ve been putting into my one-man play.

I’m gonna make it stand-out. That’s a promise.

But aye, would absolutely recommend The Burqa Master by Cid Andrenelli to anyone!

Oliver The broken Bear, Free After 30 Years In A Bear Bile Farm In China

what can I say, spare a few bucks to help animal asia?

One Person, One World.

Oliver The Broken Bear:

Oliver was one of 10 bears rescued from a bear bile farm in Shandong province, China. 33 years old, he had spent 30 of those in this cage, with a heavy metal jacket and daily painful bile extractions…  

Oliver the brown bear have a stunted body, arthritis and mobility problems. His stiff old limbs can never extend normally like a healthy bear. He has compressed lungs from wearing a full metal jacket so tightly around his chest for decades on the farm, and an enlarged heart as a result of it working harder throughout these years. His teeth are broken , and an eye with lens luxation which made him blind and causing him pain, so it had to be removed by surgery. 

When Animal Asia rescued him they were very concerned about the state of him. His long, misshapen body was flat to the bottom of his…

Finding Zero (Review)

Great article. i’m getting this book, thanks for the tip.

Personally, I consider mathematics to be a rather useful albeit, dry, intimidating field of study.  In public school, my grades in arithmetic and math were terrible.  I finally found a truce with the subject in college when I aced Algebra 101.  A few years ago, I started an independent study of Trigonometry that more or less, still continues.  To me, mathematics is difficult and requires a great deal of discipline for a follow-through.

That is why I was surprised to find an attractively packaged slim volume about mathematics on the new books shelf at the Norfolk (Nebraska) Public Library.  The dustcover of Finding Zero: A Mathematician’s Odyssey to Uncover the Origins of Numbers by Amir D. Aczel is reminiscent of Buddhist philosophy publications. The drawing of a right palm immediately made me think of a classic Mudra or gesture of the Lord Buddha.  The juxtaposition of the illustration with the…

Black comedy is in style

Cid Andrenelli, Artist and Writer

Finding an enigmatic artist and activist whose talents cross multiple mediums is rare to find. Italian artist, writer and playwright Cid Andrenelli is one of these unique talents.

Examining Andrenelli’s paintings is hypnotic and mesmerizing. Some of her work has hints of similarity with those of Mexican artist Frida Kahlo’s self-portraits. Their artwork is passionate, raw, vivid and yet quietly disturbing. In another medium, Andrenelli stretches her artistic wings in her stage play, The Burqa Master which was recently adapted into a novel. Andrenelli’s writing is best described as wickedly colourful, black humour that peeks into the satirical aspects of cultures and traditions. Digital Journal had the opportunity to interview Andrenelli for this article.
