[Erykah Badu lobby promo/ movie]
Video recording from The Black Academy of Arts and Letters shown in promotion of Erykah Badu preforming at the academy in March of 2008. The tape would have been played in the lobby of the theatre. The footage shows clips from various music videos starring Badu, advertisements for concessions and sponsors, and seating instructions for ticket holders
Erykah Badu hat collaboration
The bedrock of Flora McLean’s research is through physical making, much in line with the conservatory-style art school culture at the Royal College of Art. Her material explorations occur within her own studio alongside the Footwear, Accessories, Millinery and Eyewear studio at the RCA. She challenges standard construction techniques (instead using welding, melting, moulding), expected use of materials (preferring plastic gardening mesh, acrylic, Perspex), and creative intentions (mounting pieces on external stone statues, headpieces that read brainwaves). She very rarely uses traditional millinery materials like sinamay, felt or Paris net, for example. For McLean, hats are well beyond adornments. They are multi-faceted expressions captured within three-dimensional worn artefacts. Key collaborations have also sparked experimentation and are a feature of McLean’s practice. The niche of her aesthetic was recently picked up by the equally individual singer/songwriter/actor Erykah Badu. After connecting through Instagram, Badu expressed a keen interest in McLean’s fashion aesthetic. McLean was subsequently invited to New York to bring several pieces and attend Badu’s performance. Although originally intended to be a hat protector, Badu purchased one of the transparent plastic covers (the Crystal Crown) as a piece unto itself, thereby further extending the reach of McLean’s work. Badu can be seen wearing it during her large-scale shows and in the press. Badu’s artistic vision and fashion sense are continually evolving, very much aligning with McLean’s pursuits. Badu has since visited McLean’s London studio where, during the three-hour visit, she spoke of her life of music and selected a crocheted beanie, which is now part of her personal collection. They met in Tilburg (The Netherlands) to discuss the February 2020 launch of Badu’s online fashion platform Badu World Market. The visit concluded with a 60-piece order from House of Flora. InStyle Magazine also photographed Badu in one of McLean’s crocheted pieces (S. Cristobal, October 2019). That McLean’s work within hat making is a visual diagram for her parallel research interests in music and rhythm also helped to solidify the creative connection

Replication Data for: Seroprevalence, Risk Factors and Impact of Toxoplasma gondii Infection on Haematological Parameters in the Ashanti Region of Ghana: A Cross-Sectional Study
Abstract:
Background: Toxoplasma gondii is an obligate, intracellular, apicomplexan parasite that causes toxoplasmosis. Although the global prevalence of toxoplasmosis has been estimated to be approximately 30%, there is limited seroprevalence data in Ghana, with dearth of information on the impact of T. gondii on haematological parameters in exposed persons.
Method: Questionnaires were administered to 300 consenting individuals to obtain demographic information and assessment of their risk of exposure to T. gondii. Participants were asked to donate 3 mL of venous blood for serological testing and full blood counts. Using anti-T. gondii IgG/IgM combo test kit, seropositivity to parasite-specific IgG and/or IgM was determined. A haematological analyzer was used to measure haematological parameters.
Results: The participants included 58 males and 242 females, and ranged in age from 6 months to 84 years, with a mean age of 27 years. There was an overall seroprevalence of 50.3% (n=51), with 50% (n=150) of the study participants seropositive for IgG and 1% (n=3) testing positive for IgM. Furthermore, the observed seroprevalence among pregnant women was 56.4% (n=62). With regards to the different communities in which the hospitals were located, a seroprevalence of 55.6% was observed in the rural community, 50.6% in the peri-urban community and 47.1% in the urban community. The study identified cat ownership, contact with cat litter [RR (95% CI: 1.76 (1.23-2.53), 1.66 (1.03-2.67), 1.25(1.00-1.57)] and age (p<0.001) as risk factors for infection. Analyses of haematological data revealed significant differences in the red blood cell counts (p=0.038) and mean corpuscular volumes (p=0.0007) of seropositive and seronegatives.
Conclusions: About half of the study population, including a significant number of women of reproductive age carried antibodies against T. gondii, raising questions about the risk of congenital toxoplasmosis. In addition, there were significant differences between seropositive and seronegative individuals in terms of red blood cell count and mean corpuscular volume, though the functional significance of these findings is still unclear at this time. We, therefore, recommend that screening for Toxoplasma gondii be included in the routine screening of pregnant women seeking antenatal care and future studies investigate the impact of T. gondii infection on haematological parameters
