Caleb Kelly

Caleb Kelly (born Dunedin, 1972) is a curator, author and educator from New Zealand. His particular area of interest is sound and noise works by artists.

Directorships and curation

High Reflections was a monthly series of sound events started in 2009 and curated by Kelly and Alex White at Serial Space in Sydney. It ended in May 2011 with a mini festival at Red Rattler.

In April 2010 Kelly produced "caleb.k presents" for the ISSUE Project Room in New York.

Until 2006 Caleb was one of the three directors of Pelt gallery including Peter Blamey and William Noble. It was located in Chippendale, a semi-industrial inner city suburb of Sydney, Australia. The gallery specialised in exhibitions artwork for which sound was the primary medium or only media. During its period of operation it was the venue for most of the impermanent audio events (also curated by Kelly).

Between 2001 and 2006 Caleb Kelly curated impermanent.audio; an independent sound event primarily concerned with the performance of new musics, focused listening, the still contemplation of abstract audio and the act of listening itself. By the time it ended in 2006 Kelly had produced over 100 events and festivals.

Caleb

Caleb, sometimes transliterated as Kaleb (כָּלֵב, Kalev; Tiberian vocalization: Kālēḇ; Hebrew Academy: Kalev) is a figure who appears in the Hebrew Bible as a representative of the Tribe of Judah during the Israelites' journey to the Promised Land. A reference to him may also be found in the Quran, although his name is not mentioned.

Name

According to the Jewish Encyclopedia, "since "Caleb" signifies dog, it has been thought that the dog was the totem of [Caleb's] clan".Strong's Concordance states that "Caleb" is "perhaps a form of keleb (Hebrew: כָּ֫לֶב‎), meaning "dog", or else from the same root in the sense of "forcible", whereas the New American Standard Exhaustive Concordance states that keleb is of "uncertain derivation".

The original Hebrew name is pronounced /ˈkɑːlɛb/ or /ˈkɑːlɛv/; the modern English pronunciation /ˈkeɪləb/ is courtesy of the Great Vowel Shift.

List of Buffy the Vampire Slayer characters

This article lists the major and recurring fictional characters created by Joss Whedon for the television series, Buffy the Vampire Slayer. For detailed descriptions, see individual character pages.

Main characters

The following characters were featured in the opening credits of the program.

The show's titular protagonist, Buffy is "The Slayer", one in a long line of young girls chosen by fate to battle evil forces in the form of vampires and demons. The Slayer has no jurisdiction over human crime. This calling mystically endows her with a limited degree of clairvoyance, usually in the form of prophetic dreams, as well as dramatically increased physical strength, endurance, agility, intuition, and speed and ease of healing. There traditionally has been only one Slayer alive at any given moment, with a new one called upon the event of her death.

Xander is a close friend of Buffy. Possessing no supernatural skills, Xander provides comic relief as well as a grounded, everyman perspective in the supernatural Buffyverse. In another departure from the usual conventions of television, Xander is notable for being an insecure and subordinate male in a world dominated by powerful females.
