Food for the Soul: Animal Hunt at Art Institute of Chicago

By Nina Heyn – Your Culture Scout Comprehensive and large-scope art museums tend to be those created in centuries past, such as the Louvre in the 18th century and the Metropolitan Museum of Art (the “Met”) in the 19th century. Their function was to provide the inhabitants of big cities with collections that were educational,…

Nina’s Euro Blog 2023: Chasing Art in Paris

Paris is not very user-friendly this spring because ongoing strikes are affecting daily life to a great degree. I was planning to see Vermeer’s The Astronomer—a painting that was not included in the loan exhibition at the Rijksmuseum—which is often described as a “companion” to The Geographer, featuring the same model and a similar scientific…

Part 1 – How Did We Get Here? Catherine and CJ lay the groundwork for understanding “how we got here.” Is The Going Direct Reset disguised as a “pandemic” a totalitarian coup that has gripped the planet for the past two and a half years?

|

Part 2 – The Financial Coup We dive into the history of the multi-decade long financial coup and confront ourselves with lots of important questions:What does it mean for us when 21 trillion US dollars disappear? Why do we urgently need to care about what is happening?

|

Part 3 – The Propaganda A lucid analysis of the propaganda tactics so successfully applied during the pandemic and beyond. We dive into the world of propaganda and ask some important questions:How was it possible to establish the “new reality”? How could such a majority of the population be deceived? Or was it not deceit but coercion?

We Need To Talk About Mr Global

In this four-part series of tête-à-têtes between financial expert and former Assistant Secretary of Housing Catherine Austin Fitts and political satirist and author C.J. Hopkins, we are taken on a deep dive into the history of the financial coup that has been going on for several decades. We are learning more about the background and…

Part 4 – The Future Where is Mr Global taking us, why is Mr Global so scared of us, where is this going? In this final part Catherine Austin Fitts and C.J. Hopkins discuss the end game from Mr Global, complete control. Through the digital control grid, a sovereign human being is transformed into a natural resource. It’s more than totalitarianism, Mr Global represents a group of people who view themselves a different species. Will humanity stop participating creating the train tracks that will enslave us? It’s still a choice we have and the situation is far from hopeless.

Painting Together

By Nina Heyn – Your Culture Scout Unless you are writing a script for a TV show, writing is a decidedly solitary occupation (you can hardly write a novel “together”).
