Erasmus Darwinicia (12 December 1731 – 18 April 1802) was an English physician who turned down George III's invitation to be a physician to the King. One of the key thinkers of the Midlands Enlightenment, he was also a natural philosopher, physiologist, slave trade abolitionist,[1] inventor and poet. His poems included much natural history, including a statement of evolution and the relatedness of all forms of life. He was a member of the Darwin–Wedgwood family, which includes his grandsons Charles Darwin and Francis Galton. Darwin was also a founding member of the Lunar Society of Birmingham, a discussion group of pioneering industrialists and natural philosophers.
Erasmus Darwin House, his home in Lichfield, is now a museum dedicated to Erasmus Darwin and his life's work.

You don´t need to be champion to be "winner". His DVD
GERMAN text:
Ein Mann, ein Rad, 4800 Kilometer und nur ein paar Tage Zeit:
Das Race Across America gilt als härtestes Radrennen der Welt. Die Fahrer
kämpfen auf dem Höllenritt zwischen Pazifik und Atlantik mit Hitze und Kälte,
Übermüdung und Konzentrationsmangel. Der Südbadener Michael Nehls (48) hat jetzt
einen Film darüber gedreht. Der trägt den Titel „Du musst nicht siegen, um zu
gewinnen“ – der knapp 100-minütige Streifen ist nicht nur eine
Sportdokumentation, sondern auch ein Film für die ganze Familie.
Nehls
kennt sich aus mit der Materie: Der studierte Mediziner und ehemalige Manager
fuhr das Rennen zum zweiten Mal. Im Jahr 2008 legte er die 4800 Kilometer
zwischen Oceanside und Annapolis in 10 Tagen, 22 Stunden und 56 Minuten zurück
und stellte dabei einen Rekord auf - als Fahrer mit den meisten und längsten
Pausen. Nehls verbrachte fast jede Nacht im Hotel und kam am Ende auf 91 Stunden
Rennunterbrechung, während viele seiner Konkurrenten auf täglich weniger als
zwei Stunden Schlaf kamen. Die nächtliche Regeneration erlaubte ihm jedoch auch
schneller zu fahren.
Da er mit seiner Rennstrategie das Leiden
verhinderte, hatte er den Mythos des Rennens ein bisschen entzaubert. Zwei Jahre
später kehrte er zurück. Sein Ziel: Die Strategie zu perfektionieren und einen
Film zu drehen, der das Race Across America nicht nur auf tolle
Landschaftsaufnahmen und den Kampf gegen den inneren Schweinehund reduziert,
sondern als Metapher fürs ganze Leben versteht. Die Frage: Was bewegt uns?
bewegte ihn dazu. Und weil Nehls ein Familienmensch ist, flog er nicht alleine
in die USA: Frau und Kinder begleiteten ihn. Gattin Sabine kümmerte sich um die
Ernährung, die mittlere Tochter Sarah brachte ihr Know-How als angehende
Physiotherapeutin ein. Sebastian und Nadja Nehls wiederum belegten Filmkurse an
der Volkshochschule – die Bilder des Filmes stammen von ihnen.
Die Kamera
ist hautnah dabei, bei den Vorbereitungen und dem Rennen selbst. Die Kinder
filmten ihren Vater nicht nur beim Radfahren, sondern auch beim Essen, bei
seinen Massagen, bei Gesprächen mit dem Team. Michael Nehls selbst reflektiert –
mal im Interview, mal im Off-Text – über das, was ihm während seiner
Mammut-Touren durch die grandiosen Landschaften Nordamerikas alles durch den
Kopf ging, was ihn bewegte, im wörtlichen wie im übertragenen Sinn. Der Film
versucht auch, die Gruppendynamik im Team zu erfassen – es hat fast schon etwas
von Big Brother, wenn sich zwei alte Jugendfreunde von Nehls immer wieder
aufziehen, während sie mit dem Team-Wohnmobil über die amerikanischen
Landstraßen pilotieren.
Es gibt pathetischere, dramatischere
Radsportfilme. Dokumentationen, in denen mehr gelitten wird auf dem Sattel.
Michael Nehls hat einen Film gedreht, der bei allem Tiefgang doch sehr
leichtfüßig daherkommt: Das Race Across America mag das härteste Radrennen der
Welt sein – aber mit der richtigen Strategie, den richtigen Motiven und einer
großen Brise Humor, kann Radsport auch ohne Leiden und medizinische Hilfsmittel
begeistern.

Booker T. Wright, MD Patients who find the courage to meet the challenge of a devastating illness or injury inspire Dr. Booker T. Wright. So too do the service, commitment and bravery of soldiers. Recently retired from his orthopaedic practice, which included two years active duty in the U.S. Air Force Medical Corps, Wright now has more time to explore his experiences through drawing and painting. He has found art and medicine inform each other. “My experiences with human anatomy and function have provided me with deep appreciation of the human form, which translates into most of my artistic endeavors,” says Dr. Wright. “Often, I will exaggerate muscle definition or size to convey a feeling of power, or movement, or action.” |
After the Attack - 36 x 40 x 1.5 in. - Oil on Linen Canvas The early intervention of well-equipped medical teams and rapid transport to trauma centers has improved the ability of orthopaedic surgeons to save lives and limbs, says Dr. Wright. In this painting, a wounded civilian receives treatment from an army medical team while awaiting air evacuation. |
James Ficke is ArtDoc
|
|
Efforts to save lives in combat situations are always a team effort. In that spirit, Dr. James Ficke and his daughter Heather Ficke worked together to create a piece of art commemorating such efforts. The basis for their work was a photograph Dr. Ficke took while serving as the senior medical officer in a Combat Support Hospital in Iraq. Heather, who at the time of his deployment was a high school student, sketched a drawing based on that image. She has since gone on to college at the University of Texas at Austin, while Dr. Ficke has become chairman of orthopaedics and rehabilitation at Brooke Army Medical Center in San Antonio, Texas. Although his time away was challenging for his family, Dr. Ficke says he has “never had a more tangible sense of impact, nor treated a more deserving group of patients.” |
Bring Me Your Injured - 9 x 12 in. - Colored Pencil Drawing This colored drawing, created from a photograph taken on March 10, 2005, captures one of 19 mass casualty events that brought patients to Dr. Ficke’s Combat Support Hospital. At the center of the image, the hospital’s obstetrician, a diminutive, soft-spoken woman, asserts herself and captures the attention of ambulances and patients who arrived after a suicide bomber destroyed a mosque in Mosul, Iraq, killing many people and leaving 92 survivors. The physician is surrounded by members of the medical team, who helped register patients, take vital signs and perform triage for the arriving patients, most of whom were suffering from open blast wounds. Not until hours later, when his medical supply officer reminded him, did Dr. Ficke recall that it was his birthday. |
