Having a Confab About All Things Vintage, Retro & Upcycling

There is a movement to repurpose, re-use, and transform the old and once forgotten. What we discard can be reimagined into new and beautiful forms.&nbsp;&nbsp; There is a fondness, a nostalgia for eras gone by and seems to resurface from generation to generation. This sentimentality appears to be a uniquely human.&nbsp;&nbsp;Perhaps it reminds us of our own impermanence or comforts us as we age. Join us as we chat about the love of period costume, upcycling fashion and breathing fresh life into old technology through art. Let's revamp our old way of thinking, and discover a new mantra: In with the old, and out with the new.

Uncovering the Mystery of the Abandoned with Fiona Thornton of Luximos Christie's International Real Estate

The words ghost town commonly conjure images of empty narrow streets of wooden buildings with dusty verandahs support blackened, gaping windows, and if you wander far enough, you might come across a rickety old saloon or perhaps a general store. Abandoned villages are not just forgotten remnants of a time gone by.&nbsp; People flee their homes, sometimes overnight or over decades, when it no longer makes sense to stay. Ghost towns are often left behind to the passage of time but sometimes they can be revived and reconstructed, home again to new life. Explore the potential renaissance of an abandoned village in Portugal with our guest, Fiona Thornton, International Manager of the luxury brokerage Luximos. So let’s cast off our assumptions, and excavate the derelict, the deserted and the desolate ghost town.

In Conversation with Dr. Margaret Grant

It is believed that Charlemagne once said that to have another language is to possess a second soul. Language connects us, binds us, but is also a vehicle for social and cultural norms.&nbsp;Language can define our values, express our ethics and establish boundaries of behaviour. Explore the science of language with Dr. Margaret Grant, professor of linguistics and cognitive science at Simon Fraser University in British Columbia. Let's not mince words, and have real talk about the fascinating subject of language. **Oops!
