Some Jazz

[hancockinstitute]

[Jazz] It's really about the human experience. It’s about the ability of human beings to take the worst of circumstances and struggles and turn it into something creative and constructive. That’s something that’s built into the fiber of every human being. And I think that’s why people can respond to it. They feel the freedom in it. And the attributes of jazz are also admirable. It’s about dialogue. It’s about sharing. And teamwork. It’s in the moment, and its nonjudgmental, at its best.

🎙️🔥 Black History Month & Singer Billie Holliday

Events leading up to Billie’s death.

—In 1939, Billie Holiday recorded the first great protest song of the Civil Rights Movement, ‘Strange Fruit’ —“Strange Fruit” was originally a poem written by Abel Meeropol, under his pseudonym Lewis Allan, as a protest against lynchings and later set it to music. First performed by Meeropol’s wife and their friends in social contexts, his protest song gained a certain success in and around New York

—The song soon came to Billie Holiday’s attention, and after so many frequent requests of that song, she closed out EVERY performance with it. The waiters would stop serving ahead of time for complete silence, the room would darken, a spotlight would shine on Holiday’s face, and there would be no encore

—Radio stations in the South wouldn’t play it, record labels wouldn’t record it, oa BUT YET, the song rose in the charts selling over I million copies. Despite the success, a government agency was determined to shut her down.

—One night in 1939, Holiday received a warning from the Federal Bureau of Narcotics to never sing the song again. This order was led by FBN commissioner Harry Anslinger, also known as an “extreme racist in the 1920’s”. He had a mission to eradicate all drugs everywhere, and believed jazz music was the problem. His attack on this genre of music was racially led.

—Holiday’s known struggles with alcohol, drugs, and vocal voice against white supremacy made her a target. He sent undercover agents after her, including arranging for her abusive husband to set her up.

—She was put on trial (The United States of America vs. Billie Holiday) just wanting to recover, but was sent to prison and her cabaret license was revoked. That didn’t keep her down. She continue to perform “Strange Fruit” even at a sold out show at Carnegie Hall

—In 1959, Holiday collapsed and was sent to the hospital with liver disease and goes into heroin withdrawal. Her friend managed to have the hospital give her methadone to help her recover.

—Arslinger’s team arrested her on her hospital bed cutting off her methadone medication after claiming to have found heroin in her bedroom. I0 days later, Holiday died.

In other words, they murdered her.

ITS RICO TIME!

This is Ricochet. She’s Jazz’s younger sister. Very wild and not very dimer. One hell of a force to be reckoned with too. Her and Jazz are on pretty okay terms and will meet up every know and again.

Looks wise she takes after Snowcat more then Punch. She’s bigger then Jazz but will often lower herself to make him feel better, she can really easily offend with her presence alone sometimes. (She considers his comfort more then he realizes. Her personality doesn’t take it super obvious.)

Jazz is a little bit suspicious of her cause she’s unpredictable. He really doesn’t like her poking around in places she shouldn’t be. Rico couldn’t give less of a shit.

Some close ups 👇

Type of person to spit in your face and then make you thank them for it.

Current lineup. Edited some of the bugs a bit, with two new additions!

Jazz-bug and Prowl!

I think they turned out super cute.

The next robot to be turned into a bug will probably be Ratchet…

Hollow Knight fixation reawakened so I thought I’d turn the funny robots into Hollow Knight bugs as a fun little thing

So far we got Bee (Hive Scout), Optibug, Bugatron, Buglita

Shockbug.

Dragonfly Trine: ThunderCharger, Bugscream, and FlyWarp

Soundweb and his weaverlings: Rumble and Frenzy, and Laserbeak and Ravage

(NOTE: I updated this image a couple times since I first posted it, but I think that’s about it for the first set of transformer bugs. Please lmk who else I should turn into a bug! :D)

EDIT: I imagine that they’re not so much taking the place of the bugs in Hallownest, as they exist as another kingdom of bugs out in the wastelands beyond Hallownest.

The Kingdom of Cybernest? Cyberhive?

I’ve been imagining hypothetical boss fights against these bugs also, might illustrate those later.
