In this episode of High Theory Nasser Mufti talks with us about Brutalism. A twentieth century architectural style featuring imposing structures made of a lot of concrete, brutalist structures tend to provoke strong reactions. People either love it or they hate it – you never get a middling conversation about brutalism. Often used for government buildings, university libraries, and hospitals, Nasser suggests it represents the architecture of the state itself, massive bureaucratic structures in which we get lost, but also perhaps, nostalgia for a state that actually takes care of its citizens. Before we recorded the episode, Nasser sent me this article about the Brutalist campus at the University of Illinois where he works, which is full of beautiful black and white images. In the episode he refers to a line in Charles Dickens's Bleak House (1853), which describes Chesney Wold as “seamed by time.” And he reminds us that verb form “decolonizing” is quite new, even Ngũgĩ Wa Thiong'o Decolonizing the Mind: The Politics of Language in African Literature (1986) only uses the gerund in the title. The neologism “decolonizing” is distinct from the world historical project of decolonization and the historiographic method of decolonial analysis that comes from Latin American studies. Nasser Mufti is an associate professor of English at the University of Illinois, Chicago, where his research and teaching focuses on nineteenth century British and postcolonial literature and theory. He is especially interested in literary approaches to the study of nationalism. His first book, Civilizing War: Imperial Politics and the Poetics of National Rupture (Northwestern University Press, 2018) argues that narratives of civil war energized and animated nineteenth-century British imperialism and decolonization in the twentieth century. You can read it online, open access, which is pretty damn cool! He is working on two new projects, the first, tentatively titled Britain's Nineteenth Century, 1963-4, looks at how anticolonial and postcolonial thinkers from the Anglophone world turned to nineteenth century British literature and culture as a way to think decolonization. The second, titled “Colonia Moralia,” examines the dialectics of postcolonial Enlightenment through comparative readings of T.W. Adorno and V.S. Naipaul. The image for this episode is a photograph of Boston City Hall, a Brutalist building mentioned in the episode. The black and white photograph shows an interior courtyard of the building, a large concrete structure with many windows, located at One City Hall Square, Boston, Suffolk County, MA.

“One of the things I think about a lot is this. I vividly remember the desire throughout pretty much most of my twenties and certainly my teen years to be a famous artist and win big awards. And when you dig down into what you actually want from that, it's connection. The teen brain, in particular, is extremely geared toward connection and gets different brain chemical payouts for different things than adults. So certainly, when I think of like teenagers, I think of that drive for connection and fitting in and being accepted is so strong. And that was a part of my artistic output or desire as well was like, okay, if I write, you know, something world-changing, like then it could be like a really well-regarded composer and get that respect. Or if I go more of the songwriting and film route, I can be beloved or have people love my music and have this emotional experience with my music. There were all these dreams that I had that I think largely boiled down to just wanting to be accepted. And you can get that outside of your career and outside of the arts.”How can we learn to flourish because of who we are, not in spite of it?

The conversation explores the post-war architectural movement (commonly referred to as Brutalism) and the groundbreaking concrete structures that re-imagined the City of Boston during the 1960s and 1970s. Beyond a mere architectural trend, this period reflects an urban transformation driven by public investment, resulting in a diverse array of civic, cultural, and academic landmarks that epitomize concrete modernism. The discussion unveils some of the era's most iconic structures, like the Boston City Hall and Harvard's Carpenter Center, while tackling the period's troubled urban histories and the challenges of preserving these landmarks in the face of contemporary pressures for development and renovation.

Episode 14 with Boston-based painter & muralist, Cyrille Conan. Cyrille Conan was born in 1973 and grew up in Queens, NY to French immigrants. He is first generation American and is bilingual. He has dual-citizenship and identifies both as French and American. This duality is apparent in his artwork. The graphic nature and grit of the work derives from growing up in NYC in the 70s & 80s and the love of nature and natural forms distilled in him from Celtic/Breton culture have transformed into a minimal, organic, geometrical abstraction. Cyrille graduated with a BFA in Painting from the Hartford Art School before planting his roots in Boston in 1998. While his primary practice is still painting, he works in a variety of mediums and scales. He's produced site-specific installations and murals in numerous states as well as local galleries and public spaces in Boston, including The Cyclorama, The Museum of Fine Arts, Boston and Boston City Hall.   In this conversation, we explore the intersection between studio painting and murals, the inspiration behind his work and what it's like inhabiting the felt in-between space of being first generation French American.  This is a conversation about nature, Breton culture, symbolism and moving on from Act 1 in life via a meandering path to living in his dharma now.  Give Cyrille a follow on Instagram and check out his work here. Please Subscribe to the show, leave a review and share this episode on social media or with friends!

So, today we're bringing you one of those pieces while Team Common works on some reporting we're really excited to share with you soon. Today's story comes from reporter Walter Wuthmann. Boston's City Hall building is pretty polarizing. Some love it, but not everyone is into 1960s Brutalist architecture. Still, it's a 55-year-old landmark that needs a lot of repairs, and Walt spent a day looking into what it takes now, and what may be needed in the future, to keep this building running.

It's Wednesday, August 10th, A.D. 2022. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard at www.TheWorldview.com. I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Jonathan Clark Nigerian Muslims kill 7 Christian farmers, injure 2 On August 1st, between 7:00 pm and 7:30 pm, radical Muslim terrorists in Nigeria's Plateau State killed seven Christian farmers and injured two others in communities where there is no access to good roads and other social amenities, reports International Christian Concern. Armed with AK-47s and machetes, the Fulani Muslim militias attacked them in the Danda Chugwi village. In a separate incident, Muslims killed two Christian farmers in the Lamigo village. One survivor said. “I escaped by God's mercy. The Fulani were four in number with guns and machetes. They destroyed our crops and grazed their cattle on our farms.” The country's president, Mahamadu Buhari, has failed to protect Christian farmers. Rather, he keeps silent when Christian farmers are attacked. Hungarian leader: Liberals want to eradicate Christian values Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán  addressed the Conservative Political Action Conference in Dallas, Texas last Thursday. Orbán said Americans and Hungarians face the same threat: progressive liberals who want to eradicate Christian values. ORBÁN: “The horrors of Nazism and communism happened because some Western states in continental Europe abandoned their Christian values. And today's progressives are planning to do the same. They want to give up on Western values and create a new world. A post-Western world.” Orbán also said conservatives must build Christian culture and that politics is not enough. “Politics, my friends, are not enough. This war is a culture war. We have to revitalize our churches, our families, our universities, and our community institutions.” Isaiah 58:12 says, “Those from among you shall build the old waste places; you shall raise up the foundations of many generations; and you shall be called the Repairer of the Breach, the Restorer of Streets to Dwell In.” Biden's $280 billion tech bill On Tuesday, President Joe Biden signed a $280 billion tech bill. The bill includes over $50 billion for U.S. companies in an attempt to boost computer chip manufacturing. Today, the U.S. produces about 10% of the world's chip supply, down from 37% in 1990. Most semiconductors now come from East Asia. The Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company alone controls over half of the global chip market.  Florida to ban doctors from transgender drugs, surgeries for kids Last Friday, Florida's Board of Medicine voted to start a process that could ban doctors from offering puberty blockers and mutilating surgeries to children pretending to be the opposite sex. Florida Surgeon General Joseph Ladapo supports the new rule as well. During a press conference last week, Florida Republican Governor Ron DeSantis said doctors who provide so-called “gender-affirming care” should be sued. DESANTIS: “They talk about these very young kids getting ‘gender-affirming' care, but they don't tell you what that is. They're actually giving very young girls double mastectomies. They want to castrate these young boys. That's wrong! “So, we've stood up and said, both from the health and children wellbeing perspective, you don't disfigure 10,12, 13-year-old kids, based on gender dysphoria. 80% of it resolves anyways by the time they get older. So why would you be doing this? I think these doctors need to get sued for what's happening. I'm sorry.” (applause) The good and bad sides of the Indiana anti-abortion bill Indiana is the first state in the U.S. to pass abortion restrictions after the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade on June 24th. Indiana Republican Gov. Eric Holcomb signed a near-total abortion ban last Friday. Unfortunately, the law does allow for exceptions in cases like rape and incest. In addition to the rape and incest exceptions, Hoosiers4Life lists eight objections to this new law including loopholes which allow abortions for any reason, taxpayers will now pay for abortions, and the law defines pregnancy beginning at implantation, not at conception. Citing Isaiah 10:1-2, Indiana Republican State Rep. John Jacob, who has urged women in person to choose life outside abortion mills, explained why he voted against this bill. JACOB: “I'm voting no on this bill, but not for the same reason that my Democratic colleagues are probably going to vote no on this bill. “I'm voting no on it, because it is a weak, pathetic bill that still allows babies to be murdered. God says, ‘Woe to those who enact unjust statutes and to those who constantly record harmful decisions so as to deprive the needy of justice, and rob the poor among my people of their rights.' “And if we're unclear, we enact statutes in here. We enact law. This bill is an unjust statute.” Already, one Indiana abortion mill is planning to shut down next month. Christian flag raised over Boston City Hall And finally, activists raised a Christian flag over Boston City Hall last Wednesday after five years of litigation.  In May, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled unanimously in Shurtleff v. Boston that the city violated the rights of Christians to publicly fly the flag.  City officials said the Christians could raise the flag as long it was not called a Christian flag. However, Hal Shurtleff, the founder of Camp Constitution, refused to lie and call the flag anything other than what it was—a Christian flag. During the flag raising, Shurtleff said, “God's hand was in this from the beginning. To God be the glory.” Proverbs 3:5-6 says, “Trust in the LORD with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct your paths.” Close And that's The Worldview in 5 Minutes on this Wednesday, August 10th, in the year of our Lord 2022. Subscribe by iTunes or email to our unique Christian newscast at www.TheWorldview.com.
