Live From Old York: Mark Lockheart, King Courgette, La Mer Trio & YO1 Festival
The National Centre For Early Music
April 25, 2014
The music of Duke Ellington might represent an oft-traversed path across the jazz firmament, but the English saxophonist and composer Mark Lockheart can justify such persistent attentions. During the last decade, this tenor man has principally been associated with Polar Bear, those champions of skittish alternative jazzelectro sounds. In the 1980s, though, he established his reputation as a member of big band Loose Tubes, those recently re-united masters of organized anarchy. This was followed by Perfect Houseplants in the 1990s. The pieces that have sprung out of Lockheart's Ellington In Anticipation project (and accompanying 2013 album on Subtone Records) could be deemed reincarnations, rejuvenations or re-jiggings of those hallowed Duke works. So much so, that some of them are not even immediately recognizable as being their originators, at least not until some minutes into a given reading.
This gig assembled the entire original recording personnel, with Lockheart joined by Polar Bear's drummer-leader Sebastian Rochford, bassist Tom Herbert, pianist Liam Noble, alto saxophonist Finn Peters (with occasional flute), clarinetist James Allsopp and violist Margrit Hasler. This is an ensemble that resides in the mid-ground between small group and orchestra, armed with a sufficient palette to evoke Ellington, yet compact enough to focus terse soloing energies.
Even though this gig was quite well attended, given the extreme paucity of jazz shows in York played by out-of-towners, it was disappointing that it wasn't sold out, as is often the case with the NCEM's global music inclined performances. The pickings in town are so slim here that non-York combos appear only a handful of times during the year. These scarce opportunities ought to be seized with more enthusiasm by potential attendees.
As a result of his previous appearance in this converted church, Lockheart elected to perform in acoustic fashion, apart from a pair of small amplifiers for viola and bass. "It Don't Mean A Thing (If It Ain't Got That Swing)" was an easy ramble into the terrain, but still nevertheless re-structured into a post-bebop, almost-free jazz abstraction, a flight that could suddenly hit the ground, skidding and trouncing along with an earthy momentum. The progress of "Caravan" was much trickier, only alighting on its familiar melody towards the climax. Although Lockheart has arranged these diversions, he makes their genesis sound completely organic and spontaneous. The band has developed a deep rapport by now, seamlessly throwing solos to each other, taking up the riff-slack once their own spotlight run has concluded. Or perhaps paused for contemplation, before bursting into flames once again. A softly-spoken "Come Sunday" glided into "Satin Doll," which became "Jungle Lady" under the Lockheart quill, another moderately radical re-christening. Its twin saxophone blow-out was a highlight of the evening, sublimely followed by a cooling bass clarinet solo. "Azure" was given a 1920s period sheen, even though it was composed a decade later than that, whilst a pointillist "Take The A Train" managed to rocket off into a near jazz-funk zone, with Lockheart delivering a juicy tenor solo. "I'm Beginning To See The Light" appeared to twist into "Wade In The Water," then "Mood Indigo" manifested itself as a bassy tribal rumpus. This band could just as engagingly apply their unique approach to further jazz masters, but for now, there's still an abundance of hidden glitter to be mined within those deeply sumptuous, velvet-lined Ellington shafts.
King Courgette
The Friargate Theatre
May 2, 2014
Here we had a bunch of presumed Yorkshiremen pretending to be sons of the Appalachian mountains, simultaneously struggling with an urgently acquired Frenchness. It was the launch of the French Fries performance season to herald the coming of the transposed Tour De France to these parts, and the band's selection could just about be deemed justified when the chaps pelted into their clutch of Louisiana Cajun numbers. Down on the Clifton Delta, identities had been vigorously shaken into a vegetable smoothie, in the name of a night's fun hoe-down. Stylistically, King Courgette skilfully hopped between bluegrass, jazz, blues, skiffle and all manner of sub-graftings between these genres. It was American music viewed through rebellious English eyes, where all styles were equally ripe for harvest.
Constant instrument-swapping ensued, with quick-witted banter covering the transitions. Around halfway through the gig, the band's banjo man and upright bassist swapped roles at their respective stage-ends. Harmony vocals rang out from most of the band's keening throats. National steel guitar was swapped for fiddle, mandolin or guitar for accordion, the tunes switched from blues to bluegrass. The night was diced up into three sets, so the event turned into quite a marathon given that local troubadour David Ward Maclean had already opened with a 45 minute solo voice-and-guitar sequence. It's testament to the energetic Courgette entertainment abilities that this was sustained with admirable gusto, the final sequence upped into a foot-clacking party, led by ace percussionist Zucchini Bill Hickling. Not satisfied with his washboard, triangle, tambourine and suitcase bass drum, he shunned all these to simply hoof on a board, using sand-spillage for added percussive scrape to his metal soles. King Courgette amply succeeded in mashing a mulch of wildly diverse Americana strains, sometimes with authentic verve, and at others, ridiculously and deliberately faked. The intimate Friargate 100-seater theatre provided an ideal environment for whipping up the capacity mini-throng.
La Mer Trio
York Unitarian Chapel
May 3, 2014
La Mer Trio featured Renate Sokolovska (flute), Maja Wegrzynowska (viola) and Hannah Stone (harp), making up perhaps the ultimate sensitive chamber music combination. This was to be an evening of delicately spatial pieces, all of them short in duration. The London trio began playing together in 2010, their very nature rooted in the demands of Claude Debussy's 1915 "Sonata For Flute, Viola And Harp." Toru Takemitsu's "And Then I Knew 'Twas Wind" opened, leading into a solo harp piece by Salvatore Sciarrino, made up of minute, high note scribblings, blooming out into shimmering flourishes, alternating and returning, then concluding with gentle middle-string palm-slaps. Composer Michael Parkin was in attendance for this gig, his "Courting Rites Of Cranes" starting with Sokolovska vocalizing into her alto flute. Wegrzynowska plucked her viola, fast-stroked into a solo spell, then all three players coincided with shades of Indian classical music, although perhaps a Japanese feel was intended by the composer. After two solo harp shorties, it was prime time for Debussy's "Syrinx" for solo flute. Hipster-types might be more familiar with the subsequent "Density 21.5," which had Edgard Varèse paying homage to this work. Timothy Raymond was also present, for the premiere of his "Memorae," which was fortunate to be accompanied by actual birdsong outside the chapel, sensitive to its liquid, linear passage. In a moment, it became suddenly fragmented into shards, riddled with overblowing and bow-dragging. The concluding "Between Earth And Sea" was the most starkly dramatic work of the evening, composed by Sally Beamish. Ultimately, this concert possessed a dark sensitivity, dominated by somber and elemental moods.
YO1 Festival
The Knavesmire
May 4, 2014
This was the third YO1 Festival, a smaller one-day cousin to its larger relatives. Its multi-stage, multi-tent nature was a compacted version of what's expected from a larger-scale weekender. Even though the eight stages were relatively close to each other, noise spillage wasn't so much of a problem, due to a sensible approach to general volume levels. Loud enough inside, but not so much that this interfered with surrounding tents. Besides major hip hop headliners De La Soul, the main thrust of the fest was to feature all the various facets of the York music scene, with leading venues or promoters hosting stages and programming the day's line-up. Interestingly, some of the city's more alternative joints were prominent here, notably the Bison coffee shop and the Irie Vibes reggae sound system. It soon became apparent that these two tent-spaces were the most hospitable surroundings, rather than the larger mainstream house and techno spaces.
The Renegade Brass Band, from Sheffield, aped the popular Stateside style of merging hip hop stance with old school New Orleans parading, to moderately convincing effect. They've recorded with singer Harleighblu and rapper Rodney P, who followed on the same Night Vision stage soon after. In between were Soundsci, a punchy pair of MCs with a confident thrust. Harleighblu sounds fine on her Tru Thoughts label debut, but this set fell distinctly flat, partly due to the extreme sparseness of the crowd, but also a certain lack of projection on her part. Rodney P seemed to be sensitive to the situation when he joined Harleighblu onstage, switching plans a few times, boosting the speed of the beats and changing the set list. The pair didn't manage their stage time efficiently, as their intended duo closer had to be aborted due to the fest's strict changeover regime. The shrunken crowd for this last set prompted musings on possible restrictions on site capacity, as it seemed that the festival was sold out, or very nearly sold out, but most stages appeared to be nowhere near optimum fullness at any time. When De La Soul was playing, half of the main tent was empty. Perhaps the health and safety regulations were set at their accustomed level of absurdity.
Another cooking zone was the small BBC Radio York tent, dedicated to introducing fresh talent. The stripling Ceiling Demons were shambolic, possibly even intentionally so, but possessed a relaxed confidence, even when they all removed their deathly masks, rapping at the borders of the unconventional. Local duo Viewer were one of the day's stand-outs, augmented by guest vocalist Toastie Tailor, whose ragga/d'n'b stylings formed a stark contrast with spindly contorter A.B. Johnson's more perversely poetic couplets, the latter graduating more from the Mark E. Smith academy of rap. Two articulate rhyming languages, easily complementing each other, wired up for tension. Electronicist Tim Wright was more visible than usual, actually mid-stage and facing the audience. Normally, the band's pulsingly minimalist visuals will dominate, but this mid-afternoon set courted an alternative response. It was great to witness a cluster of dancers locking onto the beats, an activity that often isn't possible when Viewer play at smaller indoor venues. Wright infiltrated the pert beat-progressions with outbreaks of distressed extremity, and just about kept on the electro-pop leash.
Across at the Irie Vibes tent, ska combo Dandy & De Lions maintained a jogging pace, adding nothing new to the genre, but playing with an appealing brightness. Then, the stylistic coin was flipped by the Dub Barn Collective, lunging slowly and deeply. They played live instruments rather than emulating reggae deconstruction electronically. And who should that be on percussion, but Zucchini Bill Hickling from King Courgette, revealing another facet of his musicality? An amble to the Bison encampment revealed Muttley Crew, caught in a prime intersection of their garage-y post-Velvet Underground riff-churning, with angular lead guitar solos bursting out at surge-rising peaks. Following them, the ever-morphing Boss Caine was found in trio formation, with fiddle and lead guitar surrounding subterranean vocal croons. Depending on musical orientation and spontaneous choices, this could have been a very different festival for numerous beings, as there was no shortage of house, techno and indie-pop, but that's simply the desired result of a day's spontaneous musical piggery.

Jellyfish sting four Molokini snorkelers
Jellyfish stung four people snorkeling near Molokini on Tuesday, and the U.S. Coast Guard medically evacuated the victims, officials said.
Coast Guard officials on Maui received a call from a charter vessel operator reporting that an adult and three children had been stung at the popular visitor destination in waters off South Maui, the Coast Guard said.
A crew aboard a 25-foot boat responded to the scene from Coast Guard Station Maui. The crew arrived at the scene at 10:10 a.m., took the victims aboard and transported them to the Kihei Boat Ramp, where an ambulance crew was waiting, officials said.
The adult was in shock, and the three children sustained minor injuries, the Coast Guard said.

Protect Those Eyes
Students design and build prototypes for protective eyewear. They choose different activities or sports that require protective eyewear and design a device for that particular use. Students learn about the many ways in which the eyes can be damaged and how engineers incorporate different features and materials into eyewear designs to best protect the eyes.
Building Tetrahedral Kites
Working in teams of four, students build tetrahedral kites following specific instructions and using specific materials. They use the basic processes of manufacturing systems – cutting, shaping, forming, conditioning, assembling, joining, finishing, and quality control – to manufacture complete tetrahedral kites within a given time frame. Project evaluation takes into account team efficiency and the quality of the finished product.
Can You Catch the Water?
Students construct a three-dimensional model of a water catchment basin using everyday objects to create hills, mountains, valleys and water sources. They experiment to see where rain travels and collects, and survey water pathways to see how they can be altered by natural and human-made activities. Students discuss how engineers design structures that impact water collection, and systems that clean and distribute water.
Who's Down the Well?
Students learn about several possible scenarios of contamination to drinking water, which comes from many different sources, including surface water and groundwater. They analyze the movement of sample contaminants through groundwater, in a similar way to how environmental engineers analyze the physical properties of groundwater to predict how and where surface contaminants travel.
Engineering in Reverse!
Students learn about the process of reverse engineering and how this technique is used to improve upon technology. Students analyze push-toys and draw diagrams of the predicted mechanisms inside the toys. Then, they disassemble the toys and draw the actual inner mechanisms. By understanding how the push-toys function, students make suggestions for improvement, such as cost effectiveness, improved functionality, ecological friendliness and any additional functionality they determine is an improve
Oceans, climate and weather
What is the difference between weather and climate? What do the oceans have to do with them? Weather is the day-to-day state of the atmosphere and its short-term (minutes to weeks) variation. Climate is typically described by the regional patterns of seasonal temperature and precipitation over 30 years. The averages of annual temperature, rainfall, cloud cover, and depth of frost penetration are all typical climate-related statistics. The oceans influence the worlds climate by storing solar ener
The Relationship between Science and Technology
In this lesson, Students will discuss the technology(ies) that powers satellites and enable(s) them to move through space. They will be introduced to the concept of "attitude control" and the role technology has in the design of spacecrafts, as well as engage in an angular momentum experiment.
Factory Farms and Organic Alternatives
Modern farming has helped feed the world, but along the way, the land has suffered, according to this video adapted from the series Race to Save the Planet. When farmers grow too much too fast, topsoil is depleted. Farmers can work around this problem with fertilizers, irrigation, and pesticides, but these create new problems. Pesticides can harm wildlife, linger on fruits and vegetables, or wash into water supplies. Farmers are now finding new approaches to raising food, like diversifying crops

On Wednesday the U.S. Senate voted 47-52 to reject President Barack Obama's nomination of former NAACP Legal Defense and Educational Fund attorney Debo Adegbile to head the Justice Department's Civil Rights Division—with seven Democrats joining Republicans to prevent the president's pick from moving forward.
Obama called it a "travesty based on wildly unfair character attacks."
But a senior Democratic Senate staffer was more blunt, calling Adegbile's treatment part of a "recurring pattern," and telling The Root that it has become clear that black nominees are being held to a different standard than white nominees.
"What I see here happening," he said, "is that for African-American nominees, the bar has been raised to such a high level that it's impossible for any African-American nominee to seemingly clear it with Republicans." The staffer cited the extraordinarily contentious confirmation proceedings for former Rep. Mel Watt (D-N.C.), now in charge of the Federal Housing Finance Agency; Jeh Johnson as the new secretary of homeland security; and Robert Wilkins, confirmed as a justice on the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit, but said that Adegbile's confirmation process stands out as potentially the most egregious case of racial bias.
Shortly after Adegbile's nomination was officially dead, RH Reality Check's Jessica Mason Pieklo wrote that "racism is the best explanation" for why the confirmation failed. And one reason Adegbile's story is sparking allegations of a double standard is the explanations given by opponents of his nomination for why he was deemed unqualified for the post for which he was being considered.
Adegbile previously served in various capacities, including acting president at the NAACP LDF, an organization once led by the revered first black Supreme Court justice, Thurgood Marshall. But in his role at the LDF, Adegbile was involved in the death-penalty appeal of Mumia Abu-Jamal, a black man convicted of murder in the killing of white police officer Daniel Faulkner in 1982. The Abu-Jamal case has long been racially charged, and despite success in the case in 2011—getting Abu-Jamal's sentence changed from death to life in prison—Adegbile's involvement earned him criticism from Republicans like Sen. Pat Toomey (R-Pa.), who called the lawyer an "extremist, radical."
The Fraternal Order of Police also harshly criticized Adegbile's role in the Abu-Jamal case, writing to Obama that "the just sentence—death" of "the country's most notorious cop-killer" was "undone by your nominee."
Senators opposing Adegbile's confirmation cited his role in the Abu-Jamal case as rendering him unfit to run the Justice Department's Civil Rights Division, despite the fact that the rationale being used to thwart his appointment was not deemed a good-enough reason to prevent a previous (Republican) Supreme Court nominee's Senate confirmation.
Current Supreme Court Chief Justice John Roberts was once in Adegbile's shoes. As a trial lawyer earlier in his career, he helped defend John Errol Ferguson, a convicted serial murderer, back in the 1970s. When Ferguson's case came before the Supreme Court in 2012, the chief justice recused himself from the matter.
Senators didn't hold Roberts to the same standard that they held Adegbile, and the chief justice was ultimately confirmed as the top judge in the country. But senators denied Adegbile the post of assistant attorney general of civil rights for acting in essentially the same capacity as a criminal-defense lawyer.

How do you reposition a telco to meet the needs of the Netflix generation?
Yes Illustration by Gemma O'Brien
It's 2016. Australia is the world's biggest Game of Thrones pirate, telcos are considered a commodity and Netflix has transformed the way people watch TV.
Optus, Australia's second largest telco, is embarking upon an aggressive change strategy, expanding from delivering telecommunications to creating rich customer experiences with an emphasis on entertainment. Re was asked to create a new brand, fit for this bold new world. The new positioning places Optus's iconic 'Yes' in the hands of its customers. The brand is shifting from saying 'Yes' to creating 'Yes Moments' for customers. When Optus gets things right, the response from the customer is 'Yes'. Conceived as a digitally native brand, the new identity pares back design elements to let entertainment speak for itself. The brand expression feels bigger, bolder and lives through music, sport and TV content. With a brand as relevant and compelling as the content it delivers, Optus is rewriting the rules on what a telco can be. The new brand strives to inspire people with what Optus can make possible.See more
Optus is the second largest telecommunications provider in Australia offering mobile, fixed and broadband services to consumer and business customers. In 2013, Re introduced a new brand for Optus. As an antidote to the market leader Telstra, the new brand focused on righting the wrongs of telco and being the consumer champion. It disrupted the category with its playful typography and Olly – a character who played the role of the customers' wingman. This rebrand achieved its goal of reenergising Optus as the challenger to Telstra and helped regain significant market share.
Typography in collaboration with Dave Foster.
Yes Moments
In 1992, Optus introduced their brand promise, 'Yes', in the face of Telstra's no. Today, 'Yes' is still a strong brand asset but over time has lost meaning. For the rebrand, we elevated 'Yes' to give it a more defined role. When FedEx CEO, Frederick W. Smith, realised it wasn't packages they were delivering but peace of mind, that's when the Fedex brand started to make sense; and it's the same for Optus. Rather than delivering gigabytes to mobile phones, they deliver 'Yes Moments' to customers. Those moments in life when you feel more excited and more alive.
Amplifying Yes
To give Yes a stronger presence, we decoupled it from the logo and made it a brand expression all of its own. The 'Yes mark' represents the voice of the customer, hence being rendered as a hand drawn script. If Optus makes 'Yes Moments' happen for their customers then the response will be Yes. In short, Yes is the answer to everything customers want – even before they know it. Importantly, Yes is not a logo – it's a brand expression. Similarly to Toyota's 'Oh, what a feeling' and the Nike swoosh, it's an expression used to amplify the feeling of the brand – 'Yes'. Representing the customers' excitement, the 'Yes mark' is incredibly free, playful and expressive. It's emblazoned across our communications, it wraps itself around things it loves and even dances in animation. Creative agencies are encouraged to be playful and expressive with its application.

Artist installations
During launch week, we commissioned four Australian artists to produce live Yes murals in flagship stores across Australia. Gemma O'Brien, Bafcat, Numskull and We Buy Your Kids were asked to interpret the 'Yes mark' in their own way to produce large canvas that will later be used across on carrier bags and other brand assets.

A new direction for Optus.
Flash forward to 2016 and Optus is changing again in light of a major business transformation. Since 2013, the market has shifted. Telco technology is now viewed as a commodity rather than a differentiator. If they stay the same Optus risks being seen as the 'pipe' that carries content for other players. For Optus it's no longer good enough to just deliver data to mobile phones at better value. They need to focus on creating meaningful experiences for customers, putting innovation front and centre. For Optus this means a big focus on entertainment. To support this new direction, Optus has forged relationships with Netflix and Stan, launched its own set-top box (Yes TV by Fetch) and made huge news in the media by buying the exclusive rights to the English Premier League (that's soccer for any Americans reading). Optus is on a mission to forge a new kind of category where telco meets broadcaster. Re was engaged to transform the brand to signal a significant transformation. The new brand needed to be more tonally diverse, more entertainment focused and less playful. Optus doesn't want to be associated with other telcos – it wants to hang with the cool kids (Netflix, Facebook, Spotify). Olly and his charming world had fulfilled their purpose of positioning Optus as a customer champion. Now it was time for Olly to step aside.
Built to evolve at the speed of culture
The fast-moving nature of entertainment meant this brand would need to evolve at the speed of culture. The previous brand had such a strongly defined core aesthetic that it struggled to evolve with the needs of communications. For the rebrand, we took a new approach by introducing an additional layer outside the core identity which we call the playground. Governed by principles, rather than guidelines, the playground is where the brand gets to stretch its legs, play and push in new directions as the needs of customers and the business change. This meant leaving some parts of the identity open to evolution.
We achieved this with the idea of 'brand worlds' for different parts of the brand – essentially skins on the core identity, tailored to the audience they're trying to reach. For example Music feels different to TV & Movies which feels different to business, yet with a backbeat that's distinctly Optus. This way we can evolve the brand aesthetic over time without having to rebrand every few years.

Entertainment TVC By M&C Saatchi
Yes TV by Fetch
Your one-stop, non-stop world of entertainment
To cement their entertainment offer, Optus launched their flagship set-top box in partnership with local entertainment provider, Fetch. 'Yes TV by Fetch' allows you to watch, pause and record live TV, stream online content through Netflix and Stan and access premium on-demand and exclusive content through a variety of channels.
Another major piece of the entertainment offer is music. Nowadays, people consume music through streaming services yet this inevitably chews through data plans, leading to unhappy customers. Digital music is broken so to fix things Optus announced data-free streaming on Spotify, Google Play, Pandora, iHeartRadio and Guvera for pre-paid customers – an Australian first. Optus has also created a music portal in partnership with Universal Music to showcase Universal Artists.

Brands are living, breathing entities that live in the same world as consumers and seek our love and adoration. In order to engage their audiences and stay relevant, brands need to be built as evolving platforms for expression. The new Optus brand has been built to this philosophy. As a brand that's all about entertainment, this brand is plugged into the current. Always changing, always relevant, always surprising. This is a brand built to move at the speed of culture.
Love the Run – The Athletes Foot
Alongside M&C Saatchi we have just launched The Athletes Foot campaign 'Love the Run'. In an ongoing partnership with TAF we have helped reposition them as Australia's first choice for running shoes. Understanding that every runner is different: each has a different running style, runs a different route and needs a different shoe.
No two runs are the same and The Athlete's Foot celebrates all the types of everyday runs you get out of perfectly fitted running shoes – Love the Run and Love the Fit at The Athlete's Foot.

21 Years of M&C Saatchi
1995. The year two guys in a hotel room, with two clients – Qantas and British Airways – and the funding of a personal credit card launched M&C Saatchi Australia. Although industry pundits gave the pair less than 12 months, 21 years later M&C Saatchi continues to be a leading force in Australian advertising.
A landmark anniversary in anyones life, let alone that of an agency navigating the ever undulating commercial creative landscape, 21 years called for an apt celebration. Re: and M&C Saatchi set about compiling an anthology to showcase some of the best work the agency has set free into the world.
The black and white aesthetic, now synonymous with the agency's ethos of brutal simplicity, was employed to make this a bold, shelf-worthy piece of print. The limited edition book was edge printed and vacuum sealed so as to not give away what was inside, yet hint towards the significance of the contents. Sealed in a nickel coloured wrap, symbolic of the 21st anniversary, the block black un-printed cover brought an understated air of intrigue. And with just 1000 copies printed, the final piece was a fitting compilation for such creative heavyweights.

The family of nurse Jacintha Saldanha was "devastated" by her death and should be getting the kind of counselling being offered to the two Australian DJs who tricked her, a prominent British MP has said.
Keith Vaz, who met the family at their Bristol home and also greeted them with a hug at Parliament on Monday, said: "They simply cannot cope or understand what is happening. This is a small, loving family. When I was there they were having prayers for her and they will continue to love her and to cherish her until they take her to India where they wish to bury her, after they have ... reclaimed the body."
Vaz said police had been helpful and the family had been visited by a liaison officer but: "I am not sure that they are getting the kind of support that, for example, the DJs in Australia appear to be getting...
"The hospital has made it very clear it has supported Jacintha, which is what we would expect a good employer to do. I think that at a time of grief it's important to give the family that support, and I would hope very much that trained psychologists and others will be helping this family because they are obviously grief-stricken."
But he avoided answering a question about whether the family had known if Saldanha was very distressed after learning that she had passed on a hoax phone call to the Duchess of Cambridge's ward at her hospital last week.
"They are a very close-knit family and they had previously contacted her every day. It's for them to tell everybody what has happened over those crucial two days."
He said the family was grateful that the hospital had set up a memorial fund in Saldanha's memory, and that the local Bangalorean community had "rallied round".
The hospital said it had spoken to Saldanha's partner by phone on the day of her death and offered to meet him whenever he wanted.
An autopsy is due to be conducted on Saldanha's body later today. Her death is currently described by police as unexplained but not suspicious and is suspected to have been suicide.
As the global blame game over her death continued, the King Edward VII Hospital said the radio station that broadcast the call, 2DayFM, had not contacted the hospital's senior management or its press office in advance.
The station has claimed it called five times trying to seek permission to run the call in public.
Rhys Holleran, chief executive officer of the station's owner, Austereo, said on Melbourne radio: "We rang them up to discuss what we had recorded [before it went to air - absolutely. We attempted to contact them on five occasions because we wanted to speak to them about it. It is absolutely true to say that we did attempt to contact those people."
He did not explain why the prank went to air despite the station's failure to receive permission for it and said the tragedy that followed had been completely unforeseeable.
A hospital spokesman said its management was "extremely surprised" at the station's claim it had called because it indicated the broadcaster was well aware of its responsibility to inform the hospital of what it had done, yet went on to broadcast regardless.
British newspaper columnists have also questioned how it could have been legal to tape Saldanha secretly and then broadcast the exchange without her personal knowledge or permission.
Saldanha's brother, Naveen, told MailOnline that his devoutly Catholic sister was a "proper and righteous person" and would have been "devastated" by her unwitting role in the breach of medical confidentiality: "She would have felt much shame about the incident."
The two DJs, Mel Greig and Michael Christian, have apologised and said they were "gutted and heartbroken" by the tragedy.

Ok, let's share tips and tricks on how to keep our tummies happy. I have had some terrible evenings with tummy upset and indigestion. I think I need to eat smaller meals more often. What are you doing to appease the tummy gods?
Happy Tummy Thread
i dont have any now but with DS i had 4 days of nausea and i use to suck on something sour plus i noticed if i gagged (smells) in the morning it always set off my nausea so i tried to hold my breath on things that made me gag
Lemons help me a little.
I've had pretty bad nausea on and off for about 2 weeks now so I'll eat ANYTHING that sounds good because hardly anything does. That being said, I know really fatty or high sugar things will make my life miserable later so I try to avoid those.
Usually carbs makes my belly happy. Crackers, toast, baked potatoes, macaroni. All the really healthy stuff! Ha
When I was pregnant with my DD, I had morning sickness so bad, that I had to be hospitalized. And the morning sickness lasted the whole pregnancy. I had to get on meds. But, here is a list of things that seemed to help:
1) stay hydrated
2) suck on sour candies (I also used peppermints)
3) ginger tea / candy
4) Watermelon
5) salty foods like pretzel sticks
6) ensuring that I had some protein and some carbs before bed (toast with peanut butter was a good option)
7) keeping the room at a cooler temp
eating crackers and letting them settle for 10 minutes or so before I got out of bed
Lemon lime flavored seltzer water!! I didn't even discover it until this pregnancy, but it is awesome. Normal water just tastes weird right now, but the fizz and slight lime taste is great. Also, try to eat and drink at separate times. The tummy handles it better.
ETA: Make sure it's not the flavored drinks with sugar or artificial sweeteners. I'm talking about straight carbonated water with just a hint of natural flavoring to give it a hint of lemon lime.
tummy upset is a little different than what I'd do for nausea. For an upset tummy/indigestion I'd make sure to eat smaller meals and preferably earlier in the evening. Avoid spicy food, really fatty food, chocolate, soda and caffeine. High acid foods can also make indigestion/heartburn worse - so watch out for tomato sauces.
Sprite seems to help, and so does sucking on a piece of hard candy.

Hi my friend Kate and I are both outgoing and fun people. We work well with others and get along with everyone. We are both from Aldinga and currently live with Kate's parents. We like to game and go out places, and sleep. We clean u after ourselves and help out around the house we are at so we will be sure to do the same thing at our future house. We are also fine with having to share a room if that is required..
I am a clean, considerate and social person! I love to cook and look after those who are around me. I produce music and co run a UK record label online so i spend a lot of random hours due to International time zone differences infront of my studio set up (dont worry noise will not be an issue!) I have an amazingly beautiful gentle souled dog named Bosco who is my world! He is a 2.5year old American Staffy x Rhodesian Ridgeback who is fully trained and incredibly intelligent, quiet, very happy, intuitive dog with a crazy unique character! He will melt your heart even if you arent a dog lover i guarantee you will be best mates in no time!
I am honest, friendly and reliable, easy to get along with. I take pride in my appearance and my belongings. I'm always up to making my surroundings better, hard worker always on my feet, but keep to myself and always willing to lend a hand...currently installing air conditioners as a job...grew up in the hills, to the heart of Adelaide... Always outdoors enjoy good weather, having a run with my little man dog JD, who is great with kids, other dogs and pretty well trained...not shy and great personality
I am a friendly person and easy to get on with. I have a full-time job, I am a non smoker and have no pets. I am looking for a long-term rental in the above areas as I have family in Aldinga Beach so want to stay fairly close to them.
I'm a friendly, outgoing socialite but in my down time would love a drama free zone, so looking for preferably a male housemate that is happy to chill out and help me create a happy home. Easy going, tidy and healthy would also be positives :)
Looking for a quiet place to rent and have my own space.
hi i am very clean and tidy person looking for room.
I have an amazing personality and I love talking to others and meeting new people
Tell us something always pay on time, quite simply people. need granny flat because of price for 6 to 12 months to gain employment and get on our feet.
Friendly funny considerate and tidy
I am a happy, single male with a good sense of humour.I am 65 years of age and work as a security officer. The work is part time during the winter and full time during the summer. I am quite happy to assist in maintaining the property and assist and cooperate with the landlord.I have a high level of interest in a range of sports particularly AFL although I was originally from Scotland. A property in the southern suburbs of Adelaide would be ideal.

The Oceana County Sheriff's Office is seeking assistance from the public regarding recent gas drive-off's. According to Mlive.com, six drive-off's have occurred over the past two months and police believe they all involve the same car. Four of the incidents took place at Wilson's Party Store and two at Easy Mart Gas Station on Polk Road. The vehicle is described as a 2003 silver Ford Taurus. The car had a piece of blue tape covering the license plate, to avoid being seen by security cameras. Anyone with information is asked to contact the Oceana County Sheriff's Department at (231) 873-2121.
The President of West Shore Community College is arrested for operating under the influence of liquor. According to Chief David Bachman, Director of Public Safety of the City of Manistee, Charles Dillon was arrested last night in the parking lot of Olsen Grocery Store. Officers pulled him over around 9pm after responding to reports of a drunk driver. Dillon refused a breathalyzer test and had his blood drawn instead. Those results won't be available for another two weeks. He spent the night in the Manistee County Jail and was released on bond this morning.
A small plane runs off the runway in Manistee. The incident happened yesterday around 3:30p.m. and left part of the runway closed at Blacker Airport, according to 9&10 News. The Manistee County Sheriff says the plane was unable to gain altitude and went down after the nose of the plane clipped the airport fence. Four passengers were on board and two were taken to the hospital with minor injuries. The plane is completely destroyed. It's unknown what caused the accident.
