Podcasts about 2015a

Suraj speaks with Amirtha Kidambi about her work as a singer, musician, bandleader, and composer in the creative music/avant-garde scene in NYC. Amirtha talks about how her upbringing as a first-generation Indian-American affects her artistic process, how she (and other musicians) arrived at the term “creative music” to describe the music she sings/plays, and how colonization has had an adverse impact on fully experiencing music. Also, FYI, Amirtha is Suraj’s second cousin! For subscribers on podcast apps, see additional show notes and links on the AIAIF website! Link below.Because this week’s episode is a little more “in the weeds” on topics like modern jazz and experimental film, I’ve made a more extensive list of show notes. Amirtha was talking about so much great artistic material — a lot of artists and works that I didn’t know — and I just HAD to include it all in the episode! Show Notes and Links: Amirtha Kidambi’s website — Lots of great videos and links to her work here, HIGHLY RECOMMENDAmirtha’s albums with her band, Elder Ones — “Holy Science” (2019) and “From Untruth” (2018)Amirtha Kidambi & Lea Bertucci’s “End of Softness” (2020)Mary Halverson’s “Code Girl” (2018) — Amirtha is a member of this band!Understanding the concept of Indian “Raag”NY Times obituary of Kadri Gopalnath, Indian alto-saxophonist — There’s a wonderful video of Mr. Gopalnath’s music that is a great introduction to the music Amirtha discusses in the episodeOrnette Coleman’s “Free Jazz” (1961)John Coltrane’s “Impulse! Records” Discography — Every one of the albums is worth listening to, with “A Love Supreme” (1964) and “Duke Ellington and John Coltrane” (1962) being two great starting points, in my opinion. Pitchfork review of Albert Ayler’s “Spiritual Unity” (1964)Lydia Goehr’s “The Imaginary Museum of Musical Works” (1992)NY Times obituary of Fred Ho, Asian-American composer and musician — Another obit that I think is a good jumping-off point for discovering of Mr. Ho’s music.George E. Lewis's book “The AACM and American Experimental Music” (2008) A NY Times article on the AACM at its 50-year anniversary in 2015A guide to the discography of Anthony Braxton, alto-saxophonist and composerA NY Times article on Vijay Iyer and a link to his NEW album “Uneasy” (2021) — Few jazz musicians today excite me as much as Vijay Iyer. Amirtha and I discuss the paradoxes of the word “accessible” when referring to music in the episode, but if you want to hear Iyer sticking to a more recognizable harmonic palate, check out his album “Accelerando” (2012). He does a version of Michael Jackson’s “Human Nature” that is groovy beyond belief.Alice Coltrane’s recording of the “Sai Bhajan,” “Prema Mudhita” and her albums “A Monastic Trio” (1968) and “Journey in Satchidananda” (1971)Website of Ravi Coltrane, Alice and John’s son, a current jazz saxophonistSuneil Sanzgiri’s website — filmmaker that Amirtha collaborated with on two film scoresIndian film director Satyajit Ray’s “Apu Trilogy” in the Criterion Collection, Roger Ebert’s review of the trilogy, and an interview with RayAn article from Vox on Iranian film director Abbas Kiarostami and a link to “Taste of Cherry” (1997) in the Criterion CollectionAn article on Charlie Chaplin filming “Modern Times” (1936)Robert Bresson’s “Pickpocket” (1959) Get on the email list at artinallitsforms.substack.com

Do you think I’m pretty.No one likes me. I hate my life. I wish I had a friend.It was the mantra of fourteen-year-old Sherokee Harriman, who in September 2015 faced her alleged bullies in a small Tennessee public park and pulled out a concealed kitchen knife. She drove the knife into her stomach as the horrified teens watched.Local media focused on sensationalism rather than truth. The word “bullicide” was used, meaning bullying drove Sherokee to kill herself.The story of Sherokee’s death flew through social media, broadcast for all to see. Sherokee had shared her secrets online where privacy disappears with a slight movement of a computer mouse.A product of a family doing their best with little resources, Sherokee was passed through the mental health system as far as it would take her, shuttled through an overworked and underfunded education system supervised by government agencies with no real answers. She was sent to “Stop Bullying” school programs unprepared to assist, exasperating the problems.Sherokee Rose Harriman November 7, 2000 – September 5, 2015A community began to question the laws and definitions regarding “bullying.” Should schoolyard bullies be held legally responsible for causing a suicide? Can a rough family history guarantee a tragedy? And just what is bullying, anyway? Perhaps Sherokee’s death was an accident … perhaps there was a sinister truth that has yet to be told.

Crowdfunding has been around for a while, as early as 2003. In the early days, musicians and filmmakers were the main forces driving the industry.   However, recent years have shown it to be a truly viable source for funding creative and business projects alike.  Past campaigns have raised millions of dollars for everything from a smartwatch to video and board games, movies and now the acquisition of non-performing loans. Joining the podcast to discuss crowdfunding in the NPL space is Jorge Newbery, Founder and CEO of American Homeowner Preservation LLC or AHP.  AHP utilizes Regulation A+ to crowdfund the purchase of nonperforming mortgages then provides sustainable solutions to struggling homeowners. AHP's current 2015A+ fund has acquired over 2,500 first mortgages with principal balances of over $138 Million in less than 20 months; over 800 investors have supported this effort with as little as $100.
