Eestlus (Estonianness) is a state of being, identity, and feeling that has a multiplicity of variations. This time, we’re fortunate to hear about it from an Estonian-Australian point-of-view.

Coming from Sydney, Australia, Lachlan Bell is an artist and designer, a researcher in the field of folkloristics and heritage, and a community leader. This past summer, he was in Ontario, Canada getting to know the present-day and historic activities of Estonian summer camps. And what he’s seen in Canada has instigated an insightful conversation about life in Australia, a place with uncanny similarities to Canada, as he puts it.

In this episode, Lachlan talks about:

☀️what he hopes to bring home from his time at three Estonian summer camp locations in Canada

⏱️the presence of Estonians in Australia going back as far as the 1920s

🌱revitalizing the Estonian niche wall section in the southern hemisphere’s largest cemetery

🇪🇪and much more!

Can you silently perceive music? Our columnist Otepää Slim recalled his ability to conjure a concert C, no humming required, after tuning into a deep-dive episode of EstoCast (co-created by Eesti Elu and VEMU ) about the connection between mind, music, and math.

From visualizing Bach's mathematics to the structural physics of a collapsing bridge, the latest column breaks down the surprising resonance between music and the precise science of math, plus plenty of recommendations for your listening and reading pleasure.
