#everywhere was a testament to artistic expression

Throwback to the time I stood inside a reconstruction of Cappelenstugu, a house where every single surface was painted with rosemaling, and nearly burst into tears because it's so fucking beautiful. The pictures I can find on the museum website don't quite do it justice, but it's just. staggering. artist Olav Hanssen did this around 1800, in an enclosed space without reliable strong artificial light, and covered every single surface in gorgeous, intricate artwork (featuring Adam and Eve hiding after eating the apple, among other things).

Looking at Scandinavian interior design and thinking about how much cooler the world would be if the nordic countries took the South American approach to decor

Blog Seven: Where is music in nature? Where is nature in music?

Upon reading this prompt, I immediately think of birds singing. It is very fascinating to understand that each and every single species of bird has its own unique call. Some birds have loud and short chirps, while others have quiet and long chirps.  

With this prompt I am taken back to several years ago to when I visited my cousin in Whitby, Ontario in the early springtime. My cousin and I visited Lynde shores, which is a piece of protected land along the shore of Lake Ontario. While walking through this piece of protected land, there were several species of birds which we encountered. Geese, blue jays, chickadees and cardinals are only a few of the avian species which caught my eye. I remember feeding the chickadee's out of the palm of my hand.  

Do you have a favoruite species of bird? If so, have you ever had the opportunity to feed that avian species with your hands?  

Upon writing about my previous experiences with chickadees, I am reminded of various encounters at my cottage where I could hear the family of loon’s communicating to one another. When you start to think about it, there really is music everywhere in nature!  

If you take a second to really think (beyond birds) there really are plenty of examples of music in nature.  

For instance, it might be the sound of the chipmunk as they call to their mate or taunt your dogs after they have tried to capture said chipmunk. Additionally, it could be the sound of the waves crashing against the rocky shore of your lake house on Lake Ontario.  

Just as music is everywhere in nature, nature is also everywhere in music.  

Most of the music we listen to is inspired by the nature around us. Just as Taylor Swift might have written various songs about heartbreak, there are dozens of other artists that have written about the environment around them.  

One of the most common environmental themes within music that I can think of is that of changing seasons. There are countless songs I can think of that express their change over time (and over the course of seasons). These songs make reference to leaves falling, which eventually became snow falling instead.  

One of the songs that takes me immediately back to a natural landscape is ‘Somewhere only we know” by Keane. I originally heard this song when watching a Grey’s Anatomy episode and immediately fell in love with it. The song tells the story of two people walking through a forest and knowing an exclusive spot. Only the two of these individuals know this exclusive spot (it is hidden to everyone else). This spot, in the forest, is a testament to their love for one another. A place where only the two of them are aware of. A place where they can freely love one another. This takes me back to a forest in Guelph where my partner and I had walked through. Eventually, we found ourselves very deep in the woods. There were various man-made structures and wildlife. I remember seeing a deer in the distance. I think of this song every time I pass this forest in Guelph because it reminds me of the place that only “we” know. “We” being my partner and me.

Harmonizing Trends: Music Meets Fashion

Fashion and music are two rhythmic forces moving together seamlessly, mirroring society's heartbeat through their closely linked components. This synergy dates back to when musicians turned into icons, setting styles that have influenced subsequent generations. As these artists rose to become cultural tastemakers, their clothing choices often ignited trends embraced by both designers and their followers.

Diving into the impact of music on fashion uncovers intriguing transitions across the decades. The counterculture movement of the 1960s saw performers like Santana and Joni Mitchell reshaping style with their free-spirited, colorful apparel. This period signified a seismic shift in sound and fashion, ushering in the legendary hippie look marked by bell-bottoms, love beads, and vibrant ensembles.

Transformations Through the Decades

The 1980s heralded the era of glam rock and new wave. Groups such as Poison and Motley Crue made flamboyant statements with extravagant hairstyles, detailed makeup, and leather clothing. This era was a testament to rebellion and excess, with new wave musicians accentuating bright, geometric charm.

The 1990s stood out for a fusion of grunge and hip-hop, two distinct but significant movements. Grunge icons like Nirvana spearheaded a trend with tattered flannel shirts and worn-out jeans, embracing a disheveled look. Meanwhile, hip-hop brought oversized athletic jerseys and branded sports apparel into the limelight, leaving a lasting imprint on contemporary fashion.

As we entered the 2000s, there was a unique mixture of earlier trends with fresh influences. A wave of Y2K nostalgia resurfaced, while performers like Billie Eilish—famous for gender-fluid and baggy styles—captured Gen Z's quest for individuality and inclusivity.

Impact of Music Videos and Modern Media

The rise of music videos ushered in a significant shift in music-inspired style. The MTV revolution of the 1980s highlighted artists' ingenuity, visually transforming the music and fashion experience. Memorable music video costumes frequently turned into cultural sensations, sparking global fashion trends.

In the current digital era, social media hastens the merger of music and fashion. Platforms like TikTok and Instagram enable fans to rapidly connect with and imitate artists' looks, cultivating new fashion waves. Music-driven styles propelled by these platforms underscore the emotional ties between artists and their fans, evolving from passive observation to active involvement.

Fusing Tradition with New Trends

Worldwide music fashion trends weave a rich tapestry of cultural fusion. In countries like Canada and the U.S., vibrant cross-cultural discussions stem from lively music scenes. In European nations like France and Belgium, trends mature by melding local styles with haute couture. In the Middle East, places like Lebanon and Egypt blend Western trends with traditional garments, crafting a unique modern touch. This cultural fusion underscores the power of music and fashion to leap over borders.

For fashion buffs and industry experts, the evolving landscape of music and style presents thrilling opportunities. Tracking the evolving styles of musicians can anticipate upcoming fashion trends, with music festivals frequently acting as venues for unveiling new trends. Technology holds the promise of groundbreaking developments in customized styles influenced by music, as AI and data analysis unite artistic expressions with fashion.

With sustainability and ethics becoming priorities in production, and gender lines continuing to blur, the stage is set for unprecedented collaborations between music and fashion. With each new rhythm and design, a future enriched with creativity and unity lies ahead.

Sataura Monae Redefines Realness and Femininity in "Uncle Luke"

Sataura Monae is here to make her mark, and her latest single, Uncle Luke, is a bold anthem that unapologetically celebrates real women embracing their complexity. With a deep, gritty voice that commands attention, Monae tells a story that is as raw as it is empowering. The song is an ode to being unapologetically yourself—a faithful wife, a nurturing mother, a scholar, and, yes, still a bad bitch.

Born in Columbus, Ohio, and raised in the Chad Brown projects of Providence, Rhode Island, Monae’s journey to artistry is deeply personal. She started writing poems at just 10 years old as an escape from abuse and isolation, and her transition to rapping became a way to channel her pain into power. Uncle Luke is the culmination of years of self-expression, grit, and perseverance, reflecting her journey from black sheep to undeniable force in the hip-hop world.

A Song That Balances Grit and Playfulness "I’m kind of wild, I like to get loud, like every black girl that’s living."

With lines like these, Sataura Monae grabs your attention, unapologetically owning her identity as a black woman with a voice and presence that refuses to be silenced. The lyrics are both cheeky and empowering, balancing a playful edge with moments of raw vulnerability.

The chorus hits with a swagger that’s impossible to ignore: "I be in house coochie, no hoes you ain't Uncle Luke, I be in house coochie, only want me fucking on you, baby."

It’s bold, it’s catchy, and it flips the narrative on traditional tropes of womanhood in hip-hop. Monae challenges expectations, celebrating the duality of being a devoted partner while still owning her individuality and sensuality.

Visuals That Bring the Lyrics to Life The self-directed video, with cinematography by Alger "King Al Hefner" Johnson, takes viewers into Monae’s world—a space that’s equal parts intimate and electric. The video starts in a house where Monae, dressed provocatively, shares moments with her man, highlighting her sultry yet grounded energy. Her deep connection to the lyrics and her confidence make each frame magnetic.

As the video progresses, the scene transitions to Monae and her friends dancing and vibing in the same house. The energy is infectious, blending playfulness with empowerment. The chemistry is undeniable as Monae’s man and his crew join the fun, creating a scene that feels authentic and celebratory. The warm, gritty tones of the cinematography, coupled with the switch between intimate close-ups and dynamic group shots, pull viewers into the vibrant energy of the moment.

The Inspiration Behind "Uncle Luke" Monae shared that her inspiration for the video comes from real women—women who juggle being faithful wives, outstanding mothers, career-driven achievers, and unapologetic individuals. She represents a generation of women who defy stereotypes and thrive in their complexity.

"I wanted to bring light back to real women out here doing real things," says Monae. "Being real faithful wives but still a bad bitch. An outstanding mom but still a bad bitch. Graduate from college, top of my class in medical school—yup, I’m a nerd but still a bad bitch."

Her words reflect a movement, a celebration of multidimensional women who refuse to fit into a single box.

A Rising Star from Providence, Rhode Island Providence may be a small city, but Sataura Monae is proof that big dreams can emerge from humble beginnings. Growing up in the Chad Brown projects, she honed her street smarts and combined them with the book smarts she picked up in Ohio. Her journey to becoming an artist is a testament to resilience, talent, and determination.

With Uncle Luke, Monae sets the stage for her rise as a voice for real women everywhere—raw, unapologetic, and full of life.
