Welcome to the Trust in Tech podcast, a project by the Integrity Institute — a community driven think tank which advances the theory and practice of protecting the social internet, powered by our community of integrity professionals.In this sixth episode, Integrity Institute member Alice Hunsberger and Community Advisor Cassandra Marketos discuss digital spaces and community building. They discuss how to live in a world where community is not the default; whether being anonymous in online spaces is a good thing; and how product design and perception can influence the legitimacy of the content and community of a product. Cassandra “Cass” Marketos has a varied background and a diverse range of skills. She started out as a product manager for the music label Insound. Then she was the first employee at Kickstarter, where she worked on everything related to editorial and community. After her time there, Cass was deputy director of digital outbound during the Obama administration. And now she serves as Community Advisor on the Integrity Institute staff, making our community at the Integrity Institute feel like home. Cass has launched several non-profits including Dollar a Day, and now builds her local community with compost.Timestamps:0:00: Intro0:50 What is community2:30: Business and Community11:00: Being Idealistic and Realistic12:50: Is Discord the future?19:50: Anonymity in Online Spaces25:00: Universal ToS is Impossible31:20: Social Media as Road Rage34:10: Building Community in Real and Online life46:00: Urban Dictionary and Product Design Legitimizing Content51:20: Having a Community Advocate on your TeamCredits:Trust in Tech is hosted by Alice Hunsberger, and produced by Talha Baig.Edited by Alice Hunsberger.Music by Zhao Shen.

This show features several new releases from March 29. More information about the records is below.*Update!* I think I mentioned in this show that All Eternals Deck was the Mountain Goats third LP, which is obviously incorrect (ouch, indie cred!). What I meant to and should have said was that this is the third LP with a more rock-oriented trio. Sorry, ya'll.Beat City Radio #583 PlaylistDownload show (right-click, save target as): Beat City Radio #583Stream: A Few of This Week's New Releases The Mountain Goats released All Eternals Deck, which takes its name from a fictional set of tarot cards. The album shows that John Darnielle's songwriting is still quite solid and the rhythm section gets a boost from Superchunk drummer Jon Wurster.  Stream the album on NPR's website. Favorite tracks: Damn These Vampires, High Hawk Season, The Autopsy Garland, For Charles Bronson, Birth of Serpents.Hosannas is a duo from Portlandia who create sweeping and beautiful experimental dream pop tinged with cosmic spaghetti western sounds and shoegazing tendencies. They are back with a FREE EP, Thug Life Nicole, that follows the release of their third album, Together late last year. Find out more about the band and download the EP from the link above.Bonus mp3s:   Hosannas - Obsolete PeopleHosannas - Walroos From the Moon Duo website: "Moon Duo was formed by Ripley Johnson of Wooden Shjips and Sanae Yamada in San Francisco in 2009. Inspired initially by the legendary duo of John Coltrane and Rashied Ali, Moon Duo counts such variant groups as Silver Apples, Royal Trux, Moolah, Suicide, and Cluster as touchstones. Utilizing primarily guitar, keyboards, and vocals, the Duo plays space against form to create a primeval sound experience." This experimental psychedelic duo dropped Mazes this week on Sacred Bones Records.Bonus mp3s:Moon Duo - MazesMoon Duo - ScarsMoon Duo - When You Cut The Pains of Being Pure at Heart are a shoegazing bliss/gliss rock quartet from Brooklyn, NY. They released their debut self-titled album a couple of years ago to much critical acclaim. That record was very much rooted in the 80s, with elements of post-punk, dream pop, twee, and the C86 sound. It was a very saccharine heart-on-the-sleeve album, but balanced those elements with some darker tones and distortion. The sophomore album, Belong out on Slumberland Records, builds on the first album's elements and takes them further with a BIG and slick wall of sound production style, courtesy of Flood and Alan Moulder (Smashing Pumpkins, My Bloody Valentine, Depeche Mode). The overall sound of this album is early 90s guitar pop-rock, though there are some synth-washed tracks that recall Modern English and The Cure. Belong is a big-sounding, shimmering and slick, heart-breakingly blissful record that glides along beautifully and is enjoyable, though cloying at times. Favorite tracks: Heart in Your Heartbreak, My Terrible Friend,Anne With an E, The Body.Bonus mp3:The Pains of Being Pure at Heart - I Wanna Go All the Way (B-side of the Belong 7" vinyl single).We also played a new one from Swedish indie rockers Peter Bjorn and John's new album, Gimme Some and a couple from Dirty Beaches. We'll feature Dirty Beaches in another post.Enjoy!Bonus Video: The Pains of Being Pure at Heart - Young Adult Friction from The Pains of Being Pure at Heart out on Slumberland Records in 2009.

Sometimes the Spring season isn't as bright and cheery as it's supposed to be and post-winter seasonal depression kicks in. This angsty, psychedelia-tinged, shoegazing reverie of a show attempts to touch on that feeling, as well as the bi-polarity inherent in the start-stop-start-stop-again crawl of springtime, and the apprehension that sometimes accompanies the new beginnings, growth, and rebirth that occur during this time of the year. Plus, there are several tracks referencing the gaseous and incendiary sphere that we orbit, all the while knowing it will one day collapse and take everything with it.Beat City Radio #578 PLAYLISTStream:   Download show (right-click, save target as):Beat City Radio #578 - March 22, 2011 Bonus mp3s:Crystal Stilts - Flying Into the Sun  from In Love With Oblivion which drops April 12.
