Cinematic Karma - Stanley Kubrick's A Clockwork Orange WatchThis fan and BuyMeACoffee contributor, Alan Lamberg, suggests this week's title, Stanley Kubrick's 1971 controversial (masterpiece - ?), A Clockwork Orange. In the late 60s and early 70s the cinematic landscape was changing and evolving into a very different creature. Arthur Penn's Bonnie & Clyde and Sam Peckinpah's The Wild Bunch would usher in a new era of cinematic violence. Stanley Kubrick would soon pick up the baton and create one of the most polarizing and controversial films ever made. From the novella by Anthony Burgess, Kubrick would create a dystopian England that would change the attitudes and expectations of film audiences. With a powerful and compelling performance by Malcolm McDowell, A Clockwork Orange has riveted audiences since its premiere in 1971. Fifty plus years later we have to ask ourselves if the film continues to offend and frighten as it did those many years ago. Mr. Chavez & I definitely have our opinions and are thrilled to lay it out for you the listener. Sit down, download, and enjoy a spirited discussion on the film, its role in cinematic history, and Kubrick's continuing power as a filmmaker. It's a fun time.

The book is shocking, disturbing, entertaining, and unbelievably thought provoking all at once - no wonder Stanley Kubrick decided to turn the book into a movie (which is a must-watch classic in its own right). It's also an unforgettable masterwork of language, as the narrator, Alex, and his droogs speak in slang that is somehow entirely novel and comprehensible at the same time.As always, no spoilers until the end when we get into the full plot explanation and discussion.

Crossover episode from my other podcast, Alienating the Audience: Brian Brushwood and I discuss the ethics of punishment and rehabilitation in "A Clockwork Orange" by Anthony Burgess.
Under a full moon and with a pint of Guinness in hand, WAKE welcomes our very first Dublin-based reader, as correctly-accented Sarah Kane joins Toby and TJ to kick off Chapter 3.3. Sarah tells us all about participating in Bloomsday as a neophyte Joycean (“a lifeguard that can't swim”), slips into a Joyce fugue state regardless of best laid plans, and reminds us that a cold read is really just what the kids nowadays call Rawdogging. With the glorious Irishness of it all to bring us through, we discuss Joyce reading groups, Sweny's Pharmacy, Anthony Burgess, and, in a bombshell twist none of you saw coming, TJ's authentic Irish heritage. This week's readers: Sarah Kane, Toby Malone, TJ Young Progress: 496 pages complete, 132 pages to go; 78.98% read.

Long before Manchester gave the world titans of industry, comedy, music and sport, it was the cosmopolitan Roman fort of Mamucium. But it was as the ‘shock city' of the Industrial Revolution that Manchester really made its mark on the world stage. A place built on hard work and innovation, it is no coincidence that the digital age began here too, with the world's first stored-program computer, Baby. A city as radical as it is revolutionary, Manchester has always been a political hotbed. The Peterloo Massacre is immortalised in British folklore and the city was a centre for pioneering movements such as Chartism. Suffragette Emmeline Pankhurst hailed from here and the city still treasures its wilful independence. Manchester's spirited individuality has carried through into its artistic output too, bringing the world Anthony Burgess, L.S. Lowry, Jeanette Winterson, Joy Division and Oasis. Mention United or City almost anywhere and you'll find fans, and opinions. Until Made in Manchester: A People's History of the City That Shaped the Modern World (Harpernorth, 2024), this magnificent city did not have its definitive history. From Brian Groom, the author of the bestselling Northerners, this work of unrivalled authority and breadth tells the story of a changing place and its remarkable people. This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose new book focuses on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.

Get the book here: https://amzn.to/3Y0f19v - One of Esquire's 50 Best Sci-Fi Books of All Time“A brilliant novel.… [A] savage satire on the distortions of the single and collective minds.”―New York Times In Anthony Burgess's influential nightmare vision of the future, where the criminals take over after dark, the story is told by the central character, Alex, a teen who talks in a fantastically inventive slang that evocatively renders his and his friends' intense reaction against their society. Dazzling and transgressive, A Clockwork Orange is a frightening fable about good and evil and the meaning of human freedom. This edition includes the controversial last chapter not published in the first edition, and Burgess's introduction, “A Clockwork Orange Resucked.”
¡Vótame en los Premios iVoox 2024! Autor La naranja mecánica: Anthony Burgess. ¡Espero que me acompañes en este viaje literario y cinematográfico mientras exploramos juntos "La naranja mecánica" en sus distintas formas artísticas y compartimos nuestras impresiones y opiniones al respecto! ¡Gracias por unirte a esta aventura!🥛🥛El episodio especial que antes estaba disponible solo para nuestros fans ahora está abierto para todos . Además, he remasterizado el audio para ofrecer una experiencia de sonido aún mejor. Prueben esta porción dulce o escúpanla. ¡¡Son libres. Drugos míos!! Anthony Burgess.🥛🍊 ¡Queridos Drugos! Hoy quiero compartir mi emoción por la famosa película "La naranja mecánica" y mi interés en sumergirme en varios capítulos de la novela original escrita por Anthony Burgess. En mi opinión, la película dirigida por Stanley Kubrick es una obra maestra cinematográfica que logra captar de manera impresionante la esencia provocadora de la novela. La película esta basada en lo que le sucedió en realidad al autor del libro la naranja mecánica Anthony Burgess en el año 1944, durante la segunda guerra mundial cuatro marines estadounidenses asaltaron, violaron y golpearon a su esposa que estaba embarazada y perdió a su bebé por todo aquello. Tanto en la película como en el libro hace un guiño a este suceso, ya que el hombre de la casa estaba escribiendo un libro titulado la naranja mecánica. Además, la inspiración para crear a los drugos la tomó de la mano de los temibles Teddy Boys ingleses y de las pandillas violentas rusas que se vestían con un estilo muy diferente a lo normal para ese entonces y que estaban en contra del orden social y eran generalmente apolíticos. Los oyentes del capítulo final deben decidir por sí mismos si mejora la película que presumiblemente conocen o realmente se trata de un cap. prescindible. La intención del escritor era que el libro concluyese de esta manera, pero tal vez no era el correcto. Los escritores raras veces son sus mejores críticos, y tampoco son críticos. lo que está escrito, escrito está. Podemos destruir lo que hemos escrito, pero no podemos borrarlo. Con lo que el doctor Johnson llamaba fría indiferencia expondré lo escrito al juicio de ese 0,00000001 de la población norteamericana al que le importan esas cuestiones.

Burgess wants us all to know that he'd disown this story if he could, but if we're going to read it, we might as well get the ending as originally intended.This episode is sponsored by the PBS American Masters: Creative Spark, find it on your favorite listening app.Our theme music was composed by Nick Lerangis.Follow @overduepod on Instagram and BlueskyAdvertise on OverdueSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
El escritor valenciano Paco Cerdà si que estuvo presente en la Biblioteca de Antonio Martínez Asensio en Hoy por Hoy, y no ausente como José Antonio Primo de Rivera , protagonista de su nueva novela "Presentes" (Alfaguara). El ya conocido como nuevo exponente de la no ficción española publica una novela sobre el traslado del cadáver del fundador de falange entre Alicante y El Escorial en noviembre de 1939. Fue el mayor acto de propaganda del régimen franquista. Once día , diez noches y 467 kilómetros a pie para trasladar el cuerpo del mártir del franquismo por territorios que hacía pocos meses eran afines al bando republicano. Paco Cerdá juega con ese tiempo para contarnos lo que ocurría en aquella procesión nacional y a la vez las vivencias de los perdedores en el exilio, las cárceles, los trabajos forzados , las torturas o los fusilamientos. Las dos españas en 11 días de noviembre de 1939. Paco Cerdà, además de su libro, nos donó otros dos para la biblioteca radiofónica: "Llibre de merevelles" de Andrés Estellés (Editado por Tres i Quatre ) "El libro del desasosiego" de Fernando Pessoa (Seix Barral). También han entrado en nuestra colección los libros de actualidad de Antonio Martínez Asensio "Doña Bárbara" de Rómulo Gallegos (Cátedra) , "La historia de un muro" de Nasser Abu Srour (Galaxia Gutemberg). En cuanto a novedades Pepe Rubio nos trajo "Como un latido en un micrófono" de Clara Queraltó (Anagrama) y "Mapas y perros" de Unai Elorriaga (Plasson and Bartlebom) . El libro perdido en la redacción lo rescató Brian Pérez y fue "Como anillo al cuello" de Purificació Mascarell (Editado por Ariel). "Un libro, una hora" nuestro programa hermano de la SER nos donó "Moby Dick" de Herman Melville (Anaya) y , por último, los oyentes donaron "La hora de la cerveza" de Anthony Burgess (Alfaguara) y "Como una novela" de Daniel Pennac (Anagrama)
Welcome back to another electrifying episode of Metal Maniacs Podcast, hosted by the ever-passionate Jay Ingersoll and Modd! In our 59th episode, we continue our deep dive into the career of the legendary Sepultura, picking up right where we left off. This is the second part of our comprehensive two-part special, focusing on the band's journey from the tumultuous split with Max Cavalera to their triumphant evolution under Derrick Green, covering their albums from "Against" through "Quadra." Our episode begins with the dramatic events of 1996, when frontman Max Cavalera parted ways with the band following the release of "Roots." We delve into the reasons behind this monumental split, exploring the tensions and conflicts that led to Max's departure. Enter Derrick Green, the powerhouse vocalist who joined Sepultura in 1997. We discuss the audition process and how the band discovered Derrick, a Cleveland native with a voice that could carry the weight of Sepultura's legacy. ### "Against" (1998) Released in 1998, "Against" was the first album to feature Derrick Green on vocals. This album represented a rebirth for Sepultura, showcasing their determination to forge ahead despite the upheaval. ### "Nation" (2001) Next, we dive into "Nation," released in 2001. This album saw Sepultura expanding their musical horizons, incorporating diverse influences and exploring themes of unity and resistance. ### "Roorback" (2003) Released in 2003, "Roorback" marked a return to a more straightforward, aggressive sound. ### "Dante XXI" (2006) Inspired by Dante Alighieri's "The Divine Comedy," "Dante XXI" was released in 2006 and represented a conceptual high point for Sepultura. We'll explore how the band translated the epic poem into a metal masterpiece, with tracks like "Convicted in Life" and "Ostia" showcasing their ability to blend narrative depth with musical ferocity. ### "A-Lex" (2009) Continuing their trend of concept albums, Sepultura released "A-Lex" in 2009, inspired by Anthony Burgess's novel "A Clockwork Orange." ### "Kairos" (2011) "Kairos," released in 2011, saw Sepultura reflecting on their own history and the concept of time. ### "The Mediator Between Head and Hands Must Be the Heart" (2013) In 2013, Sepultura released "The Mediator Between Head and Hands Must Be the Heart," an album that revisited darker, more aggressive themes. This album showcased Sepultura's ability to remain relevant and vital in the ever-changing metal landscape. ### "Machine Messiah" (2017) Released in 2017, "Machine Messiah" was a critical and artistic triumph for Sepultura. We'll explore how the band incorporated orchestral elements and progressive influences into their tracks l ### "Quadra" (2020) Our episode culminates with "Quadra," released in 2020. This album was a tour de force, blending elements of thrash, groove, and progressive metal. We'll discuss how tracks like "Isolation" and "Means to an End" encapsulate the band's mastery of their craft and their ability to continually evolve. "Quadra" received widespread acclaim and cemented Sepultura's place as one of metal's most enduring and influential bands. As always, we love hearing from our listeners! We'll be sharing comments, questions, and stories from Sepultura fans around the world. Your insights and experiences add a personal touch to our exploration, making it a true community celebration of one of metal's greatest bands.

[originally published on Patreon Oct 12, 2021] Today's all about novels as spycraft. I introduce the premise, the different classifications, and then briefly discuss Ian Fleming, George Viereck, Robert Ludlum, John le Carré, George Orwell, Anthony Burgess, and then Aldous Huxley. First I talk about Thomas Henry Huxley, Aldous's grandfather, the X Club, the rise of Darwinism and Social Darwinism, its connections to Rhodes, Milner, and the Fabians, and HG Wells.

On this edition of Parallax Views, Simon Matthews, author of Free Your Mind!: Giovanni 'Tinto' Brass, 'Swinging London' and the 60s Pop Culture Scene, joins the show to discuss the life and career of European filmmaker Tinto Brass. Brass is perhaps most well-known today for his erotic/softcore features as well as the epic, star-studded effort Caligula (starring Malcolm McDowell and Helen Mirren among others), that was re-edited at the behest of Penthouse's Bob Guccione to the point of butchering Brass' original vision. Matthews, however, hones in on the works of Brass as they relate to the the era of mod culture in the days of London's swinging 60s. With a foreward by the legendary actor Franco Nero, Free Your Mind! explores such Brass efforts as Nerosubianco (aka Attraction), The Howl, The Vacation, and The Dropout and their relation to 60s pop culture and counterculture. We'll also be discussing such Tinto Brass movies as the controversial Salon Kitty about Nazi Germany (part of the Nazi chic boom of the 60s/70s film industry), the spaghetti Western Yankee, and Brass in relation to contemporaries like Russ Meyer and John Waters. We'll look at the politics of Tinto Brass and why his filmography, especially in Britain, has been overlooked. If you're unfamiliar with Tinto Brass this will fill you in on an interesting auteur in the world of filmmaking who hasn't gotten his proper due despite working with heavyweight actors like Vanessa Redgrave and the aforementioned Franco Nero. We'll also discuss the unmade films of Tinto Brass including the adaptation of Anthony Burgess' A Clockwork Orange that he almost made and a project that never materialized with Jim Morrison of the legendary rock 'n' roll band The Doors. All that and more on this edition of Parallax Views.

Gabriele D'Annunzio was an Italian writer, journalist and poet who wrote himself irrevocably into history in 1919. In the chaotic aftermath of World War One, D'Annunzio led a small band of irregular Italian forces to the Free City of Rijeka (Italian name Fiume), and seized it in the name of Italian irredentism. D'Annunzio proclaimed the Free City to be the new Italian Regency of Carnario, with himself as Comandante and Duce. My guest's stories about what happened in The Regency of Carnaro during its short existence make Anthony Burgess' descriptions of London in A Clockwork Orange sound gentile, with sex, drugs and a glorification of violence impossible to ignore.Though the Regency quickly fell apart, D'Annunzio's bombastic political style rolled the pitch for the fascist takeover of Italy in 1922, with Benito Mussolini proclaiming D'Annunzio "The John the Baptist of Italian fascism". My guest today is Lucy Hughes-Hallett. Lucy is a British historian who has written books about a variety of different historical figures, including Cleopatra, Sir Francis Drake, Achilles, and our subject today. Her book on Gabriele D'Annunzio is The Pike, for which Lucy won the 2013 Samuel Johnson Prize for Nonfiction, and the Costa Book Award.

Agradece a este podcast tantas horas de entretenimiento y disfruta de episodios exclusivos como éste. ¡Apóyale en iVoox! Autor La naranja mecánica: Anthony Burgess. 🍊 Las naranjas mecánicas no existen, excepto en el habla de los viejos londinenses. La imagen era extraña, siempre aplicada a cosas extrañas. «Ser más raro que una naranja mecánica» quiere decir que se es extraño hasta el límite de lo extraño.🍊 ¡Queridos Drugos! Hoy quiero compartir mi emoción por la famosa película "La naranja mecánica" y mi interés en sumergirme en varios capítulos de la novela original escrita por Anthony Burgess. En mi opinión, la película dirigida por Stanley Kubrick es una obra maestra cinematográfica que logra captar de manera impresionante la esencia provocadora de la novela. La película esta basada en lo que le sucedió en realidad al autor del libro la naranja mecánica Anthony Burgess en el año 1944, durante la segunda guerra mundial cuatro marines estadounidenses asaltaron, violaron y golpearon a su esposa que estaba embaraza y perdió a su bebé por todo aquello. Tanto en la película como en el libro hace un guiño a este suceso, ya que el hombre de la casa estaba escribiendo un libro titulado la naranja mecánica. Además, la inspiración para crear a los drugos la tomó de la mano de los temibles Teddy Boys ingleses y de las pandillas violentas rusas que se vestían con un estilo muy diferente a lo normal para ese entonces y que estaban en contra del orden social y eran generalmente apolíticos. Los oyentes del capítulo final deben decidir por sí mismos si mejora la película que presumiblemente conocen o realmente se trata de un cap. prescindible. La intención del escritor era que el libro concluyese de esta manera, pero tal vez no era el correcto. Los escritores raras veces son sus mejores críticos, y tampoco son críticos. lo que está escrito, escrito está. Podemos destruir lo que hemos escrito, pero no podemos borrarlo. Con lo que el doctor Johnson llamaba fría indiferencia expondré lo escrito al juicio de ese 0,00000001 de la población norteamericana al que le importan esas cuestiones. Coman esta porción dulce o escúpanla. ¡¡Son libres. Drugos míos!!

It's a double header with friend of the show Seth Vargas (Movie Friends Podcast). Seth sits in while we explore two rule-breaking essentials. First up is the rarely-seen Canadian film Crime Wave (1985) which is a totally different movie from Sam Raimi's Crimewave (1985). This one is a surrealist comedy written, directed, produced, and acted by Winnipeger John Paizs. There's something in the water, or snow, over there. It's like nothing you've ever seen before. On the other end of the spectrum, we chat about Stanley Kubrick's anarchic touchstone picture, A Clockwork Orange (1972), how we experience film in different phases of our life, and how the movie compares with the Anthony Burgess novel. This week on The Twin Geeks, it's a double bill and an awful lot of fun.A production of The Twin Geeks | Join our Discord
Hey, Q-Balls!We're back this week with a movie I swore I'd never watch again and a movie I have watched more times than I can count: A CLOCKWORK ORANGE & THE PARALLAX VIEW. We talk a whole lot about A CLOCKWORK ORANGE and I talk a little bit about THE PARALLAX VIEW.After a long Christina & Quinn Chat wherein we discuss Quinn's birthday, favorite childhood authors, ouija boards, meditation, progress vs. perfection, midlife and quarter-life crises, feeling jealous of young, talented people, and the differences in our personalities, we do get into it (Skip to minute 23:53 if you want to get right to the movies).Content Warning for A CLOCKWORK ORANGE. Violence including sexual violence.There are two sexual assaults depicted in the movie and we talk about knowing your limits when it comes to content vs. condemning art if you bail on it.We had a nice ramble about the plot, Malcolm MacDowell's face, Kubrick's calling cards and techniques, low-budget techniques used in the film, the design and costuming, and the many misuses of power demonstrated in the film.Of course, we have lots of Trivia and Letterboxd goodness! Thanks, for listening, WoHos & Q-Balls!Stuff we spoke about on the podcast:Anne of Green Gables IS on Scribd.com. I'm downloading it now!Paul Zindel's book WAS called The Undertaker's Gone Bananas (but is NOT on Scribd.com).According to an Interview at The Washington Post, Joseph Heller said, "The way 'Catch-22' began is that I'd just turned 30, and one day I decided maybe I was ready to write a novel".https://www.washingtonpost.com/archive/lifestyle/1984/10/08/catching-up-with-joseph-heller/34a76576-696f-415b-b1d7-efb0c398f065The Evolution of Horror covers THE LAST HOUSE ON THE LEFT & A CLOCKWORK ORANGEApple or SpotifyI couldn't find any specific artist who used mouths for eyes. Apparently, it is an Instagram filter. Who knew? I didn't.A Clockwork Orange GlossaryOf course, I meant that obscure indie film by a guy named Quentin Tarantino? RESERVOIR DOGS. (Cue rolling eyeball emoji).At time marker 1:50:13 (I KNOW!), I talk about THE PARALLAX VIEW, a film that, for me, has everything: Fantastic cinematography, political intrigue, a paranoid rage-filled, and down-on-his-luck investigative reporter with luxurious '70's hair, an assassination plot, an amazing cast including a glorified cameo by Paula Prentiss, shadows, surveillance/voyeurism, a homophobic small town sheriff, an awkward joke from a pretty woman, and connections (Get in touch and tell me how solid you think they are) to KILL LIST and A CLOCKWORK ORANGE. I hope you will give this film your time. It holds a special place in my heart.We discussed THE KILLING on Episode 37. We discussed KILL LIST on Episode 93.Are you still reading this, You Sweet WoHo?

Miles is joined by Carole Sweeney (Goldsmiths University, London) and Joe Darlington (Futureworks Media, Manchester) to discuss a range of authors who emerged post-World War 2, inspired by the works of the high modernists and the French Nouveau Roman. They were writing at the same time as Murdoch, but in very different modes and genres. Do they even form a real grouping? Authors discussed, or mentioned, include: Brigid Brophy, Anthony Burgess, Christine Brooke-Rose, Angela Carter, Eva Figes, B.S. Johnson, Anna Kavan, Ann Quin, Muriel Spark, as well as those in their circles, and those who published them. Joseph Darlington is the author of The Experimentalists (Bloomsbury, 2021), as well as Christine Brooke-Rose and Post-War Literature (Palgrave, 2021), and British Terrorist Novels of the 1970s (Palgrave, 2018). He was editor of BSJ: The B.S. Johnson Journal and now co-edits the Manchester Review of Books. https://www.bloomsbury.com/uk/experimentalists-9781350244405/ https://www.waterstones.com/book/christine-brooke-rose-and-post-war-literature/joseph-darlington/9783030759056 Carole Sweeney is Reader in English Literature and Goldsmith University, London and focuses on the intersections of race, class, sexualities and gender in modern and contemporary literature and culture. Her first book, From Fetish to Subject: Race, Modernism and Primitivism, examined how the colonial iconography of the black body was deployed in cultural modernism and how anti-colonial and decolonising cultural movements emerged in opposition to this aesthetic racialisation. She followed up this work by publishing widely on Francophone-African writing, in particular by women writers and then by examining racism, anti-feminism and misogyny in contemporary fiction. Her most recent book Vagabond Fictions: Gender and Experiment in British Women's Literature 1945-1970 examines the evolution of feminism and sexual identity in post-war Britain. Carole's current research project is on the continuing battleground for women's bodies and sexualities in contemporary literature and culture and will include work on feminist creative criticism. https://edinburghuniversitypress.com/book-vagabond-fictions.html Carole and Joe both appear in this excellent collection: https://link.springer.com/book/10.1007/978-3-030-72766-6
En este episodio exploramos un poco la ultraviolencia, según acuñada por Anthony Burgess en A Clockwork Orange. Asimismo, abordamos el rol de los medios en la difusión de la violencia, concepto trabajado en la filmografía de Michael Haneke. Disfruten de esta violenta conversación.
Author and film historian Sloan De Forest joins to discuss Stanley Kubrick's A CLOCKWORK ORANGE starring Malcolm McDowell. The 1971 dystopian science fiction film based on Anthony Burgess's novel follows a British teen Alex DeLarge and his gang of Droogs committing ultra-violence in a not-so-distant future. When convicted of a brutal murder, Alex is given an opportunity to submit to an experimental behavioral treatment, leading to unpredictable psychological damage. A CLOCKWORK ORANGE sparked controversy upon its release, some critics praising its visionary world-building, others decrying its depiction of rape and murder as irresponsible. Though labeled with an "X" rating, CLOCKWORK proved to be a box office hit and Best Picture nominee. After a series of alleged copycat crimes took place, the film was made unavailable in the UK for nearly three decades, but that only strengthened the film's reputation as a transgressive and singularly powerful work. On this episode, we take a long look into CLOCKWORK's artistry and infamy, as well as diversions into Working Girl, The Searchers, The Sopranos, Star Trek Generations, The Postman Always Rings Twice, Franklin & Bash, and much, much more! A CLOCKWORK ORANGE is currently available to stream with subscription to HBO Max.
We unfortunately can never watch a movie ever again, podcast cancelled, we apologize. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Synopsis The Stanley Kubrick film "A Clockwork Orange" opened in New York City on this date in 1971. The music was composed, and in some cases re-composed, by Wendy Carlos. As in his earlier hit, "2001: A Space Odyssey," Kubrick used classical music. This time, however, in keeping with the film's futuristic storyline, the classics were adapted and arranged for Moog synthesizer by Wendy Carlos. The Main Title music, which we're sampling, was Purcell's Music for the Funeral of Queen Mary. Carlos had just read the Anthony Burgess novel, "A Clockwork Orange," when she saw a notice in the New York Times that Kubrick was at work filming it. She immediately airmailed Kubrick two Moog synthesizer pieces, one original and one a classical arrangement. Kubrick wrote back, inviting her to London to talk, and the rest is history. Wendy Carlos had become an international celebrity with her earlier album Switched-On Bach, consisting of her Bach arrangements for synthesizer. It became the first classical recording ever to be certified "Platinum." Musical genius pianist Glenn Gould, whose own recording of Bach's Goldberg Variations was one of the biggest sellers of all time, said: "Carlos's realization of the Fourth Brandenburg Concerto is, to put it bluntly, the finest performance of any of the Brandenburgs—live, canned, or intuited—I've ever heard." Music Played in Today's Program Henry Purcell (arr. Wendy Carlos) Music for the Funeral of Queen Mary Wendy Carlos, synthesizers Eastside Digital 81362 J.S. Bach (arr.

Well...we're here. It's literally Jai's favorite film and she's been on edge waiting until we talked it here on the pod. It has been at least 20 years since I've seen this so it was a weird wild time revisiting it. In my previous watch I had no idea just how incredible the cinematography and production design was. While it's been inspiring creatives since the 70s, there is always something about the original that has to been seen. While me and Jai had differing views on the film as a whole, we still had a time! We get into the MANY behind the scenes deets, the FASHION, and just the overall weirdness that makes Kubrick a master and visionary of the visual arts. ----Get OVER 80 BONUS episodes on 90s & 00s TV and culture (Freaks & Geeks, My So Called Life, Buffy, 90s culture documentaries, and more movies...) and to support the show, join the PATREON for $5 a month! www.patreon.com/fashiongrungeHosts: Lauren @lauren_melanie & Jai @jai_stylefactoryFollow Fashion Grunge PodcastInstagram @fashiongrungepodTwitter @fgrungepodLetterboxd Fashion Grunge PodcastTikTok @fashiongrungepod
