AsiaRooms.com - Owl City to Perform in Seoul in October

American indie music sensation Owl City will be performing at Seoul's AX Hall on October 24th 2011.

2011-09-16

SEOUL, SOUTH KOREA, September 16, 2011 (Press-News.org) Popular US music act Owl City, otherwise known as Adam Young, will be performing to audiences in Seoul as part of his global tour next month.

The singer-songwriter and multi-instrumental performer will be playing to crowds at the AX Hall venue on October 24th, beginning at 20:30 local time.

A native of Minnesota, Young has been performing as Owl City for a number of years, but only hit the big time in 2009 with the release of his major label debut album Ocean Eyes.

The record spawned the quadruple-platinum single Fireflies, which topped the charts in 24 countries, thus paving the way for Young to become a major global recording artist, releasing his new album All Things Bright and Beautiful this year.

This record will be the focus of Owl City's latest tour, meaning attendees are likely to be able to enjoy ethereal tracks such as The Real World, Honey and the Bee, Hospital Flowers and Dreams Don't Turn to Dust.

Owl City's Seoul date will be followed by concerts in Manila, Jakarta and Honolulu, before he returns to the US in November.

Music lovers can find a wide selection of Seoul hotels at AsiaRooms.com, with the IP Boutique Hotel Itaewon among them.

In rapidly warming seas, some fish lose while others gain

2011-09-16

Rising temperatures in the northeast Atlantic Ocean have already led to major shifts in the abundance of commercially important fish stocks. That's according to a report published online on September 15 in Current Biology, a Cell Press publication, that is the first to consider the absolute abundance of species as opposed to their presence or absence alone. "We see many more southerly, warm-water species faring well on the European shelf than more northerly, cold-adapted species," said Stephen Simpson of the University of Bristol. "This means more small-bodied, faster-growing ...

New insight into immune tolerance furthers understanding of autoimmune disease

2011-09-16

It is no easy task to preserve the delicate balance that allows us to maintain a strong immune system that can defend us from harmful pathogens, but that is sensitive enough to correctly identify and spare our own cells. Therefore, it is not surprising that the mechanisms that underlie immune activation and tolerance are not completely understood. Now, a new research study published by Cell Press in the journal Immunity and available online on September 15th provides intriguing insight into the complex immune regulatory mechanisms that underlie immune tolerance.

Journey to the lower mantle and back

2011-09-16

The theory of plate tectonics is at the centre of our understanding of how the Earth works. It has been known for decades that new crust is formed at mid-ocean ridges and that this crust is subducted as plates dive underneath other plates in regions such as the Pacific Ring of Fire and descend into the Earth's mantle. What is not so well known is the fate of these subducted plates. In this week's edition of the journal Science, scientists from the University of Bristol (Prof. M. Walter, Dr. S. Kohn, Dr. G. Bulanova, Mr. C. Smith), Universidade de Brasilia (Prof. D. Araujo), ...

Diamonds show depth extent of Earth's carbon cycle

2011-09-16

Washington, D.C.—Scientists have speculated for some time that the Earth's carbon cycle extends deep into the planet's interior, but until now there has been no direct evidence. The mantle–Earth's thickest layer –is largely inaccessible. A team of researchers analyzed diamonds that originated from the lower mantle at depths of 435 miles (700 kilometers) or more, and erupted to the surface in volcanic rocks called kimberlites. The diamonds contain what are impurities to the gemologist, but are known as mineral inclusions to the geologist. Analysis shows compositions consistent ...

Science is published by AAAS, the non-profit, international science society.
