![]() Her sternum is rigid beneath a thick, open-shouldered fur coat. Beyoncé hails imagined others off screen: “Pray I catch you whispering, I pray you catch me listening.” Beyoncé’s carefully rendered, wide ranging personas begin to suggest not only a self-portrait, but also feelings and modes of comportment we may share.īad-ass in the style of 1970s funk singers like Betty Davis, “Don’t Hurt Yourself” telegraphs Beyoncé’s sentiments through highly marked physical gestures. But it’s Lemonade’s spoken-word poetry that directs us to listen carefully. Summoning CommunityĪll of Lemonade’s parameters-from sound effects to cinematography-work to incorporate an ever-widening community. Lemonade embodies opposites: love and hate, engagement and alienation, forgiveness and revenge. Besides the narrative of Beyoncé’s marriage (expressing anger, fear, grief, reconciliation and reintegration), Lemonade develops historical strands about Africa, the Middle Passage, slavery, reconstruction, lynching, neo-liberalism and the disinvestment of black neighborhoods at the beginning of the 1970s, Hurricane Katrina, and the police murders of African-Americans. Two overlapping genres-music video and experimental film-provide Lemonade with a means to hold the past, present, and future together. Finally, by drawing on music-video and avant-garde aesthetics, Lemonade showcases multiple story lines and strands simultaneously. Its elaborate structure demands we discover sonic and visual connections across sections. ![]() Second, Lemonade encourages the listener-viewer to make sense of a complex whole. ![]() Instead it incorporates its viewers as well as the performers depicted in the frame and heard on the soundtrack. While Beyoncé appears in every music video and many of the interludes, the film never devolves into autobiography. But it is equally about African American history. Lemonade focuses on difficulties with marriage and monogamy the popular press has described it as a commentary on Beyoncé’s marriage to Jay-Z. Beyoncé’s Lemonade is a 56-minute film composed of twelve music videos with interludes comprised of spoken-word poetry, concrete sound, and visual tableaux. ![]()

![]() There were songs I wanted to write and record, and not just have it be ‘Here’s a demo I wrote.’ Every decision I’ve made since I was 16 was made in a democracy. Here’s five things we learned about Harry Styles’ new album. Harry Styles reveals the inspiration behind his new music. The band changed my life, gave me everything.” Styles remains a One D advocate: “I love the band, and would never rule out anything in the future. Fans were traumatized by the band’s decision, but were let down easy with a series of final bows, including a tour that ran through October. You realize you’re exhausted and you don’t want to drain people’s belief in you.”Īfter much discussion, the band mutually agreed to a hiatus, which was announced in August 2015 (Zayn Malik had abruptly left One D several months earlier). “If you’re shortsighted, you can think, ‘Let’s just keep touring,’ but we all thought too much of the group than to let that happen. “I didn’t want to exhaust our fan base,” he explains. It was in a London studio in late 2014 that Styles first brought up the idea of One Direction taking a break. ![]() But as he recounts the events leading up to his year out of the spotlight, the layers begin to slip away. Today, Styles is a game but careful custodian of his words, sometimes silently consulting the tablecloth before answering. Often in the past there was another One D member to vector questions into a charmingly evasive display of band camaraderie. He’s here to do something he hasn’t done much of in his young career: an extended one-on-one interview. We arrive at a crowded diner, and Styles cuts through the room holding a black notebook jammed with papers and artifacts from his album, looking like a college student searching for a quiet place to study. As we weave through traffic today, the album no one has heard is burning a hole in his iPhone. ![]() Drake and Rihanna have recorded there, and it’s where Styles produced the bulk of his new LP, which is due out May 12th. He’s full of stories about the two-month recording session last fall at Geejam, a studio and compound built into a mountainside near Port Antonio, a remote section of Jamaica. I hadn’t done that before.” There isn’t a yellow light he doesn’t run as he speaks excitedly about the band he’s put together under the tutelage of producer Jeff Bhasker (The Rolling Stones, Kanye West, “Uptown Funk”). The number-one thing was I wanted to be honest. “I wanted to write my stories, things that happened to me. “I didn’t want to write ‘stories,’ ” he says. ![]() Styles’ car stereo pumps a mix of country and obscure classic rock. He’s lived here off and on for the past few years, always returning to London. “Honest,” he says, a year later, driving through midcity Los Angeles in a dusty black Range Rover. (He quotes the Clash’s Paul Simonon: “Pink is the only true rock & roll colour.”) Many of the details would change over the coming year – including the title, which would end up as Harry Styles – but one word stuck in his head. A bold single-color cover to match the working title: Pink. ![]() A song cycle about women and relationships. What would a solo Harry Styles sound like? A plan came into focus. For Styles, it was a search for a new identity that began on that bench overlooking London. For many, 2016 was a year of lost musical heroes and a toxic new world order.

The Telstra Mobile Network offers 4GX in all major and regional cities and in over 1,600 towns and communities around Australia. Public mobile networks must not be relied upon as a primary method of emergency communication at sea. Devices such as the Telstra Mobile Smart Antenna may assist to improve indoor coverage where it would otherwise not occur.įactors beyond Telstra's control such as the weather, tides, sea conditions and your antenna installation (type and height of antenna above sea level) can significantly influence the actual user experience of coverage, data speed and performance in offshore locations. For example, the following things may reduce or block indoor coverage: basements, lifts, underground car parks, concrete buildings, tunnels and road cuttings, steel framing and metallic window film. Indoor coverage is highly variable and there may be locations where indoor coverage is indicated, but your device will not work due to local building density, physical structures and building materials. This is as accurate as we can make it based on what we know. The Telstra mobile coverage checks also provide an indication of the availability of indoor coverage at locations searched, where this is predicted. Geographic features that may reduce or block outdoor coverage could include formations, such as hills and mountains or even trees. For example, actual outdoor coverage could be degraded or not existent in specific locations due to certain geographic features or as a result of the device used. This is a common characteristic of wireless systems. This means that while the footprint of outdoor coverage for a particular location is generally accurate, there may be some areas described as being within the outdoor coverage area proximate to locations searched where your device will not work. We have not individually tested every particular location within the identified outdoor coverage areas for coverage. ![]() The Telstra mobile coverage checks have been created using tools that predict the likely areas of outdoor coverage. ![]() Outside of 5G coverage, 5G devices will continue to use our fastest available 4G, or 3G where 4G is unavailable.

As a player, you can see rainwater dripping from the trees after the sun breaks through clouds and hear deer moving softly through the woods. The game’s virtual world is extraordinarily detailed.

![]() As Peter, I explained the human concept of heaven to Drax, and he explained the beliefs of his own people. Canonically, these characters’ pasts aren’t exactly the same as the James Gunn Marvel movies, but there is at least one constant: Peter Quill and Drax the Destroyer have both lost their families to tragedy. Dialogue options appeared and we began to chat. I eventually stumbled upon Drax staring into a great cosmic void. For the first time, I was apart from my teammates, and it’s to this game’s credit that I actually felt lonely. I stepped out into a space station, and within minutes, we had all gone our separate ways. Gamora was depressed for unknown reasons. ![]() Rocket and Star-Lord were in the middle of an argument. About halfway through my adventure, everyone on the team was feeling a bit disenfranchised. However, Eidos Montreal understands its source material and knows that arguments and internal drama are essential to the Guardians’ dynamics. Guardians nails such a strong sense of camaraderie that when one member is absent from combat, I feel the loss. Groot is great at binding enemies with his roots, while Gamora excels at dealing heavy damage to individual enemies. Sometimes the game pops up with a typical “Rocket will remember this” prompt, and sometimes my input just adds a bit of flavor.Ĭombat occasionally interrupts the exploration, and as Star Lord, it’s my job to not only fight but to command the rest of the team as well. While bumbling around, I can hit one of the shoulder buttons during key moments to select a dialogue option, steering conversations in one direction or another. Most of the 16 chapters feature the Guardians making their way through a new planet, ship, or space station, shooting the shit, launching into cutscenes, and solving environmental puzzles with Drax’s strength or Rocket’s hacking skills. But, at its best, the bridges and walls in Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy are, in a sense, purely metaphorical, and your relationship with your crewmates is paramount. The game’s quieter moments have you exploring the weirdest parts of Marvel’s galaxy, selecting dialogue options and using your allies to break down walls or create bridges out of branches. The game takes you and your squad to a variety of planets where you’ll need to blast enemies with your dual guns and command the rest of the Guardians to perform special moves in combat. Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy is a third-person action game where you play as Peter Quill, AKA Star-Lord, the ’80s-obsessed captain of the titular mercenaries-turned-heroes. ![]() ![]() If you want to see the very best of the best for your platform(s) of choice, check out Polygon Essentials.
