Chapter 1 What's No Wave by Thurston Moore"No Wave" by Thurston Moore is a profound exploration of an avant-garde music movement that emerged in New York City during the late 1970s. Characterized by its experimentalism, No Wave rejected the conventions of traditional rock and punk, opting instead for dissonance, noise, and a radical approach to sound. The genre was notably influenced by the harsh urban environment of New York, corresponding with the socio-political turmoil of the time. Artists associated with No Wave, such as Sonic Youth, Swans, and James Chance, embraced elements of free jazz, minimalism, and punk, creating an abrasive and confrontational experience.Throughout the text, Moore illustrates how No Wave was more than just a musical genre; it was also a cultural movement that intertwined visual art, film, and performance. He brings attention to key venues like CBGB and The Kitchen where No Wave artists showcased their work, and mentions the collaborative spirit among musicians, which was essential for the movement's evolution. The book maintains that No Wave's legacy continues to influence contemporary music and art, illustrating its lasting impact on the creative landscape.Chapter 2 No Wave by Thurston Moore Summary"No Wave" is a musical movement and artistic style that emerged in the late 1970s in New York City, characterized by its avant-garde approach to punk rock. It sought to break away from the conventional structures and sounds of typical rock music by incorporating dissonance, noise, and unorthodox performance styles. In his exploration of No Wave, Thurston Moore, the guitarist and vocalist of the iconic band Sonic Youth, reflects on the genre's influence on music and art. Moore emphasizes the genre's raw, experimental nature and its rejection of traditional melodies and harmonies. Bands associated with No Wave, such as Swans, DNA, and Mars, utilized feedback, atonality, and unconventional song structures to challenge listeners and redefine what music could be.The movement was not merely musical; it also encompassed visual art and performance, bringing together artists like Jean-Michel Basquiat and performance artist Laurie Anderson. Moore discusses how No Wave represented a response to both the commercialization of the music industry and the cultural dynamics of New York City during that era, highlighted by tensions around race and politics. In summary, Moore's insights reflect a deep appreciation for the No Wave movement as a pivotal point in the evolution of experimental music, underscoring its legacy as a profound influence on future genres and artists who continue to push the boundaries of sound.Chapter 3 No Wave AuthorThurston Moore is an American musician, songwriter, and author, best known as the guitarist and co-founder of the influential alternative rock band Sonic Youth. He is a prominent figure in the underground music scene and has played a significant role in the development of the No Wave movement, which emerged in downtown New York City in the late 1970s.

Robert Longo talks to Ben Luke about his influences—from writers to musicians, film-makers and, of course, other artists—and the cultural experiences that have shaped his life and work. Born in 1953 in Brooklyn, Longo was a key figure in what was called the Pictures generation of artists, which emerged in New York in the late 1970s. After that initial burst of attention he has since met with wide acclaim with his translations of everything from reportage photographs to historic paintings into vast charcoal drawings. By rendering the images in this way, he reinforces the impact of the original sources and yet prompts questions about the meaning and the power structures within and around them. By expanding their scale, he also transforms them. Up close—as we are overwhelmed by the analogue artisanship involved in the drawing—these dramatic images are abstracted. He talks about why he favours the term “collision” over “collage” and reflects on the concern with violence in his work. He discusses being, as he puts it, “an abstract artist working representationally”. He explains the process behind his responses to major works of art by everyone from Jackson Pollock to Rembrandt and Manet, and talks about the influence of Gretchen Bender on his newest Combine pieces. And he details the breadth of inspirations for his 1980s Men in the Cities series, from James Chance, frontman of the Contortions, to Rainer Werner Fassbender's An American Soldier. Plus, he gives insight into studio habits and rituals and answers our usual questions, including, “What is art for?”Robert Longo: Searchers, Thaddaeus Ropac, London, 8 October-20 November; Pace, London, 9 October-9 November; Robert Longo, Albertina Museum, Vienna, until 26 January; Robert Longo: The Acceleration of History, Milwaukee Art Museum, Milwaukee, Wisconsin, US, 25 October-23 February 2025.

Sports enthusiasts from around the world will soon be glued to their nearest viewing screen, watching the action unfold during the international Summer Olympic Games in Paris. But how much do you know about the finer points of photographing elite level competition, or about the lightning-fast, high-tech journey these images make from inside a camera to a remote editing workflow, and then onward to be enjoyed by you, the viewer? In today's podcast we've got the inside track on how these visual delicacies are brought to life and served up to global audiences. Our guests are Getty Images Chief Photographer Maddie Meyer and Managing Editor James Chance, who runs Getty Images' editing operations in Europe. We start with Maddie, who details the advance preparations and complex logistics required to ensure the success of 60 Getty Images photographers on the ground in Paris, alongside a sizable amount of remote and robotic gear. In the show's second half, James describes the impressive synergy between the photographers on site and the massive team of photo editors he's assembled to work remotely from London and in other locations around the world—a complex infrastructure that's a first for the agency. Immerse yourself in the passion for sports and learn what it takes to capture images that set you apart from the pack. As Maddie Meyer sums up, “That's where the real challenge comes in. And that's where I would say it's really difficult. But that's where knowing the athletes comes in, knowing the way they move, knowing their rituals before they get in the pool, knowing some of the dynamics between the athletes, where you can really kind of pick up on the minutia to try and make something special.” Guests: Maddie Meyer & James Chance Episode Timeline: 3:37: Maddie's college internship at Getty Images, and her experiences as a woman shooting sports. 8:30: Plans for covering the Paris Games, and details about the Getty Images team. 11:56: Maddie's aquatics specialty and details about photographer assignments. 16:23: A question of shooting strategy: going for maximum volume vs anticipating more and shooting less. 22:37: Dedicated cameras vs remotes and robotic equipment, plus Maddie's go-to gear: A Canon R3 mirrorless and 28-70 mm f/2 lens. 28:23: Episode Break 29:35: The synergy and trust between photography and photo editing teams. 33:28: Logistics of staff photographers, remotes, and robotic cameras on the ground to capture the Paris Games 38:28: Details about Getty Images remote photo editing staff in the UK during the Paris games, and their three-stage editing process. 43:33: The technical tools—hardware and software—powering the Getty Images workflow and file management process. 1:00:58: The most important qualities in a Getty Images photo editor. Guest Bios: Maddie Meyer is a chief photographer for Getty Images based in—but not geographically limited to—Boston, Massachusetts. She joined the Getty Images team in January 2015, after earning a Bachelor of Science degree in photojournalism from Ohio University. Maddie's assignments range from covering New England's professional sports teams to international travel covering events such as the Men's and Women's World Cup, the FINA World Swimming championships and the Olympic Games in Rio and Pyeongchang. Her pictures are continually published in major metropolitan newspapers, magazines, and websites worldwide, including ESPN, the New York Times, Sports Illustrated, the Washington Post, among many other media outlets. Equally skilled as a photographer, James Chance began his editing career as a freelancer in London. He currently serves as the managing editor for Getty Images Europe, the Middle East, and Africa. He works to train and schedule the editing team, as well as plan editing for major events such as the Women's World Cup in Australia, and the Paris Olympic Games. James helped to create the vision for Getty Images remote editing plan, where photo editors will be working out of the company's London office, while the photographers will be in Paris.

In this episode we welcome John Doran and Luke Turner to downtown Hammersmith and invite them to talk about their much-loved and newly-revamped Quietus "webzine". (That's Noughties-speak, for all you kids out there.) The intrepid duo look back on the 2008 birth of their baby and reflect on its survival and evolution over the subsequent 16 years. Quotes from pieces they wrote about Kanye West (2008) and Britpop "fakestalgia" (2014) prompt thoughts on such much-missed Quietus writers – and RBP contributors – as S(teven)Wells, Dele Fadele and Neil Kulkarni. Mention of a recent Quietus piece about Yoko Ono leads us to clips from Mark Kemp's 1992 audio interview with the pioneering avant-gardist whose life and work are celebrated in an exhibition at London's Tate Modern (15 February to 1 September, 2024). Ardent fans of Ono's woefully-overlooked solo albums, John and Luke talk about the relentless racist/misogynist abuse she's suffered as "the woman who broke up the Beatles" [sic]. Staying in the demi-monde of downtown New York transgression, we pay tribute to departed jazz-punk No Waver James Chance, another Quietus anti-icon, before Mark winds up the episode with quotes from newly-added library pieces about the Beatles (1963), the Temptations (1970), Kurtis Blow (1981), Jerry Dammers (1990) and Glen Campbell (1999). Finally, Jasper rounds things off with remarks on Atlanta's overshadowed rappers Goodie Mob... Many thanks to special guests John Doran and Luke Turner. Read the Quietus at thequietus.com, and find their books, including Jolly Lad and Men at War in all good bookshops. Pieces discussed: Kanye West: Sensitive Soul, Modern Life Isn't Rubbish: The Trouble With Britpop Nostalgia, Yoko Ono audio, Q: Why Interview James Chance? A: Because He's There, Bow To The Devilish Prince: James Chance Interviewed, Downtown icon James Chance cuts loose, It's the Beatles! Part 5: How To Avoid The Stage Door Crowds... Enter Through The Roof, Temptations: no trouble pleasing their audience, Kurtis Blow: Rap-sody in Blow, Mandela's Day — The Journey To Freedom, Glen Campbell: "I could have gone the same way as Elvis" and Goodie Mob: World Party

On today's episode, I talk to musicians Pat Place and Cynthia Sley of Bush Tetras. Both art students, Cynthia and Pat moved to New York in the 1970s and were soon sucked into the music scene. Pat became one of the founders and the guitarist of James Chance and the Contortions, and then in 1979, the two formed Bush Tetras. Their debut 7-inch EP, "Too Many Creeps", was released in 1980 on 99 Records, and even though they only stayed together for another three years, the band was an integral part of the downtown New York no wave scene. The band has reformed twice since then, once in the late-'90s and most recently in the mid-aughts, and they've been going strong since. Their latest album They Live in My Head was just released at the end of July on Wharf Cat Records, and it's fantastic!

Julia Gorton in conversation with David Eastaugh http://www.juliagorton.com/coming-new-products/nowhere-new-york With a synthesis of imagery, metaphor and feeling, in a space located between attraction and angst, Julia Gorton's photos of New York's No Wave scene, 1976-1980, capture a fleeting time with unique style. 192 pages and 170 photos. Her beautiful vision of downtown Manhattan, in the moments before AIDS, crack, Disney and condos changed everything forever, focus on subjects including musicians and friends; Debbie Harry, Patti Smith, Tom Verlaine, David Byrne, Lydia Lunch, Iggy Pop, James Chance, Richard Hell, Anya Phillips and many others less well known, but certainly just as memorable.

Desde o Roxy Music, onde todos os integrantes eram formados em artes, até o desenvolvimento da ambient. Partindo do glam rock, desenvolvendo depois a melhor estirpe da música de elevador, a gente vai falar justamente desse momento de transição de um artista, que para esse que vos escreve são sempre os mais interessantes.A gente vai falar de "Before and After Science", de 1977. Esse disco reúne toda a alquimia musical de Eno: Funk com Krautrock alemão, ecos bem leves ainda glam, pós-punk e new wave (estilos novatos em 77) e ambient music. Diferente do anterior que quebrava com o glam para mergulhar muitíssimo na ambient, esse parece que retrocede nesse sentido um pouco, pois a ambient music está lá mas não é o centro. O centro é uma alquimia rica, um todo acessível e experimental ao mesmo tempo. Disseco no podcast também por que Eno se classificava como um “non-musician”.Esse episódio disseca algumas referências fundamentais para Eno e para a Ambient music e algumas referências-livre-associações fruto da interpretação do podcaster. Falamos de Erik Satie, Kurt Schwitters, William Burroughs, Byron Gysin etc. Falamos um pouco do Roxy Music, mencionamos a relevância de Eno como produtor, engenheiro de som etc. Um cara que produz bandas que se inserem no cenário mais pop como U2 e Coldplay, mas também obras como "No New York", que revelou todo o cenário do punk mais underground/conceitual/ da No Wave reunindo bandas como DNA do Arto Lindsay, James Chance and the Contortions, Teenage Jesus and The Jerks da Lydia Lunch.

For the past five decades, the British-born, New York–based artist Jamie Nares has been capturing the passage of time, the physics of motion, and the essence of self through a wide variety of mediums, including film, painting, music, photography, and performance. Many of Nares's films, such as Pendulum (1976) and Street (2011), play with rhythm and speed as they distill the streets of New York City and the movements of its inhabitants. Nares's vast body of work shares a common theme: the recording of a specific moment in time that gives the viewer an intimate look into a human experience. Her famous brushstroke paintings are both powerful and delicate, capturing the mere seconds of a single, continuous bodily motion using a repeated swooping gesture. One of her recent projects, “Monuments,” pays homage to the workmen who, centuries ago, chiseled marks in the huge granite blocks of downtown Manhattan. As life speeds up following the pandemic lockdowns of 2020 and 2021, Nares's work serves as a beautiful reminder to slow down, and to more deeply explore the many movements around us.On this episode of Time Sensitive, Nares talks with Andrew about her decades of work exploring time, rhythm, and movement; her journey transitioning to womanhood at age 65; and why her daughters and the next generation give her hope for the future.Special thanks to our Season 6 sponsor, L'ÉCOLE, School of Jewelry Arts.Show notes:Full transcriptJamie NaresKasmin Gallery[03:32] Street[15:43] Pendulum[25:26] Red-Handed[27:29] A New Vein[31:10] James Chance and the Contortions[38:18] Ramp[38:36] No Wave Cinema[39:21] Monuments[50:02] “Nares: Moves”
Tripp Nasty takes us deep into the strange and scary world of Denver's alt music scene. Tripp discusses his history as a computer programmer(??) and future physicist(???) before recently going for his masters in accounting(????) all while developing a deep appreciation of sound and Moog's synthesizers. He also talks about landing in jail for two days during the pandemic (?????) and a Denver industrial band that landed in jail themselves after a prolonged harassment campaign of Tripp and other local musicians that involved fake tours, tear gas, and home break-ins(?????????????). Because Tripp's connections in the underground run deep and Brandon and I already name drop so many bands that range in obscurity, I've included short clips interspersed and laid under as bed music throughout the episode for some additional context for people like Jennifer. The episode opens with Tripp Nasty's "Western Pride" and closes with "On a Snowy Afternoon," both off his recent album Making the Pythons Dance. Other clips in order of appearance include Shonen Knife, the Disco Biscuits, Echo Beds, William Basinski, Sun City Girls, Crash Worship, James Chance & the Contortions, Yonatan Gat and the Eastern Medicine Singers, Harry Pussy, Tripp Nasty's "Snowy Afternoon," the Forbidden Planet soundtrack, Delia Derbyshire, various modular synth clips from Tripp Nasty Sounds on Instagram, Ezra Buchla, and more from Tripp Nasty Sounds. I'm not gonna post song titles since I'm not trying to get us unlisted. You can find Tripp Nasty on his website, his bandcamp, and twitter. Jennifer C. Martin also has a new fiction piece up influenced by her new relationship. Give that a read at Olney Magazine.
Walt Disco is a young stylish band from Glasgow. Over the last two years they wrote, recorded and self produced their debt album, Unlearning (Out April 1st on Lucky Number Music). In this episode Joe talks with 2 members of the sextet, singer James and keyboardist/guitarist Finley. James and Finely share the process of making Unlearning , why they wanted it to sound "scrappy", how that forced them to think differently and why self producing gave them a sense of childlike wonderment. We learn what drives them to have a strong stylized aesthetic and they share a couple stories from their experience playing the Celine show in Paris. They also discuss the influence of new wave AND no wave and tell us what they love about touring. We hear a couple tunes from Unlearning. https://waltdisco.bandcamp.com/musichttps://www.luckynumbermusic.com/releases/https://www.izotope.com/https://us.minorfigures.com/

Neste programa destacamos um momento histórico cultural muito interessante passado especialmente em Nova Yorque nos meados/final dos anos 70 que teve curta existência: a “No Wave”, um fenômeno underground e avant-garde multiartístico abrangendo a música, o audiovisual, artes cênicas, entre outras. O nome cunhado do contraponto e rejeição com a comercial New Wave, estilo musical mainstream vigente na época, com inspiração em outros gêneros não comuns: post-punk, funk-punk, industrial, noise e experimental. Produção e apresentação do nosso colaborador internacional Fabian Fernandez, que de algum da costa brasileira elaborou essa playlist (sem ordem cronológica de execução): 1 – “Baby Dee” – Konk – surgida em NY em 1980 imersa na sonroridade pós-punk, new wave e disco-funk, liderados pelos saxofonista Dana Vlcek. Segundo consta Richard Edson foi baterista da primeira formação da celebre Sonic Youth . 2 – “Blonde red head” – DNA – foi a banda do famoso músico e compositor americano Arto Lindsay (natural da Virginia), surgida em 1977 com músicas de carater experimental. 3 – “Contort Yourself” – James Chance – outro famoso no movimento, cantor, compositor e saxofonista nascido no Wisconsin. Gravou muitos álbuns com diversas bandas entre as quais o The Contortions. 4 – “You Make no sense” – ESG – grupo formado por duas irmãs do Bronx, responsáveis por instituir o disco-punk. A ideia da banda foi da mãe das adolescentes com intuito de afastá-las da barra pesada que era o bairro. 5 – “Reduction” – Material – banda experimental criada em 1977 pelo famoso baixista e produtor Bill Laswell. 6 – “Wawa” – Lizzy Mercier Descolux – cantora e compositora francesa que se mudou para NY no final dos anos 70 onde fundou a ZE Records responsável por lançar artistas da cena No Wave e underground da cidade. 7 – “Optimo” – Liquid Liquid – banda dance-punk de NY com curta existência – 1980-1983. Em 2008 o quarteto retomou as atividades com a mesma formação original. 8 - “Button Up” – The Bloods – banda funk/punk de garotas de Nova Iorque. 9 – “Atomic Bongos” – Lyndia Lunch – Ainda adolescente chegou em NY. cantora, poetisa, compositora e escritora, considerada um dos grandes nomes do movimento No Wave, formou com James Chance a banda Teenage Jesus and The Jerks. Na época ganhou esse sobrenome por roubar comida para levar aos colegas artistas. 10 – “Bleeding” – The Method Actors – banda de Athens na Georgia surgida em 1979, única da lista sem ligação direta com a cena de NY.

Adele Bertei - Contortions, Peter Laughner & Why Labelle Matters - in conversation with David Eastaugh Bertei began her career playing guitar and singing in the Wolves, her first band with Laughner. She left Cleveland for New York City in 1977 shortly after Laughner died prematurely of complications due to alcoholism. Bertei quickly became a prominent figure in the no wave art and music scene in NYC, playing Acetone organ and guitar in the original line up of the Contortions fronted by James Chance. While working as personal assistant to Brian Eno in 1978, Bertei took him to a series of concerts at Artists Space in New York, which resulted in Eno producing the iconoclastic LP No New York for the Virgin/Antilles label, featuring the Contortions and three other no wave bands.

Véritable météorite arty, la no wave s’est développé dans les lofts et les clubs du Lower East Side, au coeur de Manhattan vers 77. Malgré une existence très courte, seulement 5-6ans et bien que l’essentiel du mouvement n’ait été consignés que sur d’obscurs labels à faible tirages assez mal distribués, la no wave a eu une influence considérable dans de nombreux genres musicaux. Notamment dans la scène free jazz avec John Zorn, ou dans la musique contemporaine avec Arthur Russell, Rhys Chatham et Glenn Branca qui ont eux-même participé à sa genèse. On retrouve aussi l’héritage de no wave dans la noise avec des groupes comme Harry Pussy ou Prurient. Le terme No Wave souligne le caractère expérimental de la musique : la musique No Wave n'appartenait à aucun style ou genre fixe. À bien des égards, la No Wave n'est pas un genre musical. Bien que prolongeant le punk à sa manière, la no wave, n’aura aucun porte étendard. Toutes les formations que l’on regroupera sous cette étiquette n’auront ,comme pour le post-punk britannique, assez peu de points communs, en dehors d’un rejet commun envers la structure traditionnelle de la chanson. Il y a cependant certains éléments propres à la plupart des groupes de cette scène au son très particulier, les guitares bruitistes souvent atonales, les rythmes déstructurés, le chant hurlés ou atone, la tendance à mettre l'accent sur la texture musicale plutôt que sur la mélodie pour beaucoup, la NO WAVE, c'est avant tout ça. Elle est souvent mieux défini en termes d'environnement artistique. Les musiciens s'inspirant fortement de l'art de la performance à la fois très théâtrale et minimaliste. Cette scène n'aurait sans doute pas eu autant de résonance sans Brian Eno qui décida d’enregistrer les artistes qu’il avait découvert lors du festival underground à l'Artist Space en mai 78. Il les enregistrera pendant les séances de mastering du deuxième album des Talking Heads. Sa compilation NO NEW YORK sort en 1978, avec des titres de D.N.A., Mars, James Chance et Teenage Jesus & The Jerk et donnera un véritable coup de projecteur à ses groupes éphémères mais tellement important. Pour finir deux citations qui résume bien le mouvement et la vie artistique de l’époque à New-York. Celle de Brian Eno : « Je savais que les groupes que j’avais produits sur No New York allaient se séparer dans la foulée de l’enregistrement. Pourtant j’avais dans l’idée qu’ils marqueraient les esprits aussi durablement que les mouvements esthétiques du début du 20ème siècle. » Enfin celle de Anita Sarko, à l’époque Dj, dans le livre New York Noise : « La vie avait des allures de performance artistique continuelle, mais débarrassée de toute prétention crispante. Tu pouvais faire ce que tu désirais. Si tu voulais peindre, tu peignais. Si tu voulais être musicien, tu prenais ta putain de guitare ».

With seminal releases from Suicide, James Chance, Lydia Lunch, Was (Not Was), Kid Creole and the Coconuts, the Waitresses, and many others, ZE Records was described by John Peel as "the best independent record label in the world." UK-born Michael Zilkha founded the label alongside Michel Esteban in 1978, after running the short-lived Spy Records with John Cale. After the label closed in 1984, Zilkha left New York for Texas, where he now is in the renewable energy business.In this interview, we talk to Michael Zilkha about his early musical influences, his coming to New York immediately after school, and the formation of what would become one of the most acclaimed record labels of the era. Recently, Zilkha revived the ZE brand to release "The Future Is Mine" featuring Bun B and Mr. Biggs:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ITdsUr4tDeo
The Chance Brothers and Company glassworks began producing glass in 1824 at their facility in Smethwick, West Midlands, England. Before too long, the company became known as the best glass manufacturer in Britain. In addition to producing sheet glass, Chance Brothers perfected methods of manufacturing optical glass for telescopes. In 1848, Chance Brothers began working on the manufacture of Fresnel lenses for use in lighthouses. A first-order lens was created and displayed in the Crystal Palace at London’s Great Exhibition of 1851. James Chance worked with Trinity House to adjust the lenses already in British lighthouses so that they were more efficient. The Chance Glassworks and canal. courtesy of Chance Heritage Trust. The company’s lenses were eventually used in approximately 2500 lighthouses worldwide. The lenses were all sizes, including 13 hyper-radial lenses, which were the largest ever used. Chance Brothers also became involved in the production of prefabricated cast-iron lighthouse towers. In addition, they made lanterns and other components for lightships, and clockworks used to drive the rotation of lenses in lighthouses. Interior of the Crystal Palace showing the Chance Brothers first-order lens, 1851. (U.S. Lighthouse Society) Mark Davies The Chance Brothers factory in Smethwick was officially closed in the early 1980s. Today, the Chance Heritage Trust is working to restore the remaining buildings at the nine-acre Chance Glassworks site in Smethwick. The plan is to convert the site to a combination of residential units, educational space, a heritage center, a café, and archives facilities.

Can business school support an entrepreneurial venture? [Show summary] James Chance, a 2019 London Business School MBA graduate, reveals how his experience at LBS impacted his path as an entrepreneur, along with how he’s transforming online privacy protection through his startup, yourself.online. Learn how entrepreneur James Chance launched his start-up while at London Business School. [Show notes] James Chance graduated from the University of Bristol in 2011 with a degree in mechanical engineering. He then worked as a strategy consultant for Accenture UK, until he joined Google in 2016. He earned his MBA at London Business School in 2019, which is where he also launched yourself.online, his startup. We're going to learn more about James's MBA path and experience, as well as about the launching of yourself.online and how it can help you maintain your privacy. Can you tell us a little bit about your background, where you grew up, and what you like to do for fun? [2:03] I grew up in Central London, not too far from the City, the financial district, right in the center, quite close to St. Paul's. That was a real eye-opener in terms of this very fast-paced world, and growing up, I was fortunate enough to, from that experience, see a lot of things, arts, culture, different businesses, all sorts of different stuff as a kid and as a teenager. When I reached the end of secondary school, then I decided I wanted to get out of London and go to the University of Bristol, as a change of scenery. In terms of what I like to do for fun, I've always been really passionate about traveling. I was fortunate enough to have a few occasions where I've traveled for work and worked in different countries, the US, Australia. But then I’ve also done more adventurous travels as well. I was fortunate enough, with a friend of mine in 2011, after I graduated from college, to drive halfway around the world from London to Mongolia in a car we bought on eBay for just under a thousand dollars. It's an adventure called the Mongol Rally, which was great fun. And I've always been trying to find those sorts of, not quite as adventurous, but trips that are a little bit off the beaten track. But unfortunately that's all on hold this year, but big plans for next year, hopefully. Next year, post-pandemic, I'd really like to do more of South America, since it's not really somewhere I've explored much. I'd really like to do some of the Argentina, Brazil, bits of Peru as well. You worked as a strategy consultant for Accenture for almost four years, then for Google as an analytical consultant, and also in e-commerce for a family business in Norway. With all these different experiences, why did you decide you wanted or needed an MBA? [3:50] I first started to think about doing an MBA when I was in consulting. This is something throughout, really: I had come into business coming from an engineering background, so coming from a technical background, where my quantitative skills and analytical skills were good, but I didn't have that much grounding in terms of finance, management, stuff like that. And I was fine for probably, I would say, the first few years of my career. But I found when I was at Google, I was fortunate enough to be brought into some really high-profile meetings with some of our senior clients, the CMOs of some of the largest e-commerce companies in the world, and stuff like that. Fantastic experience, but I was sitting at some of these meetings and I thought, I don't know how you work out marketing ROI. There were things that I just didn't have the fundamental business knowledge around. I could do the maths and things like that, and solve problems, but there were broader things I'd like to expand my skill base at and expand my fundamental background knowledge. LISTEN: Encore: Is an MBA Worth It, or Is the Sky Falling Down on the MBA Degree? >> And then on top of that, I'd always had throughout my business days a kind of back-...
One thing that Jazz and Circus have in common is that--unlike way too many things that we see in our daily lives--you can't fake them. You cannot pretend you're an expert among circus or jazz artists… If you are not … it'll show! And this authenticity may be one of the reasons why they seem so precious in this age of disposable fakeness. Here we continue our exploration of the connections between jazz and circuls with a dolly shot of circus acts, fire eaters, mimes, jugglers and many more. Enjoy the show, and don't forget that jazz never fails to be our safety net when we fall off the trapeze because the other guy didn't bother reaching out for us... The playlist features Rusty Bryant, Tuatara, Hypnotic Brass Ensemble, Mathilde Santing, Paolo Fresu, Rez Abbasi, Trio Grande & Matthew Bourne, Django Bates, Phillip Johnston, James Chance, Nucleus, Noël McGhie and Charlie Haden.

Jeff Klingman joins a special and somber episode of the podcast discusses the passing of Ze Records and No Wave icon Cristina. A proto-Madonna, Cristina embodied the DIY nature of the NYC-based No Wave scene, bringing insouciance and noise to pop. We also discuss Ze labelmates like James Chance and Kid Creole, and compare her music and that movement to the electroclash blip of the early 2000s. RIP Cristina, hope you got your ticket to the tropics. For supplemental listening, Jeff Klingman created a Cristina-specific playlist https://open.spotify.com/playlist/7at0ooMo5bDBfBOiE5EIrY?si=niVSsEtqRIaedSzj0xiAjA and one featuring Ze Records' Greatest Hits https://open.spotify.com/playlist/1FmYfrWc6o6wsTQDV4CTVg?si=U0srmeo5SOOYvEoYUFlwGw

We start out 2019 with an explosion not a bang. Our guests are award-winning investigative journalist May Jeong, award-winning writer/stand up comedian Josh Gondelman and singular blues punk rock n’ roll bad ass musician Shilpa Ray. Along with special surprise guest Mitch The Enthusiasm Coach and Megan Fitzpatrick Gets It Off Her Chest. Christian and Shonali catch up on the holidays, mom talk, Nancy Pelosi, Howard Schulz' signature and the opportunity which 2019 will hopefully bring. Their first guest is investigative journalist May Jeong. May is a wunderkind. She's spent years living in Afghanistan covering the war and received high accolades for reporting from there. We discuss her courage, smarts and as she calls it being "young and dumb" in terms of saying yes to every opportunity to get the real story. Look for her upcoming work in the New Yorker regarding another explosive ground breaking story. Shonali's new 2019 positive attitude is due to the new man in her life, Mitch The Enthusiasm Coach. Mitch who also wears two headbands at one time shows Christian how to get inspired about the year and take charge of his life. The second guest in the lineup is award winning writer and stand up comedian Josh Gondelman. He was a former writer for Last Week Tonight with John Oliver and currently write for the new late night show on Showtime with Desus and Mero. What Christian and Shonali find most interesting about Josh is that he is from Boston, has no accent AND was a former preschool teacher. 2019 is going to be a big one for Josh. He just recorded a one hour comedy live special and has written a new book "Nice Try - Story of Best Intentions and Mixed Results" to come out this year. Oh and Desus and Mero's show debuts on February 21st. Get It Off Your Chest with audience member Megan Fitzpatrick. She comes forth with martini in hand. Our problems stem mostly from the weather and inconsiderate people. Whew, don't you feel better. Our last guest is the amazing multi-instrumentalist, singer-songwriter punk rock blues musician Shilpa Ray. Wow. Shonali bonds with Shilpa on being Bengali Female Desis who play rock n' roll. Unbelievably she had a music pageant dad who had to force her to practice her harmonium and vocals at a young age. Believably he also still wants her to go to med school. Shilpa says she is actually shy which is shocking. Shilpa kindly answers Christian's template musician question beautifully. Please go see Shilpa play live at El Cortez on February 8th with James Chance to find out why people call her god. Shilpa performs two songs live on piano in the Red Room, 1) Same Sociopath and 2). Cry For the Cameras Enjoy! Happy New Year! Also special thanks to Matt Hunziker for coming in a crushing it as Mitch the Enthusiasm Coach!

James: This is the story of the Gamekeeper's Family. Once upon a time, not so very long ago, there lived a couple in a wood. Andrew: The husband was a gamekeeper at the local estate. James: His wife was a housekeeper for the same. Andrew: They had lived in their little cottage very happily for the last fifteen years. James: But ... they longed for a child. Andrew: They had tried many things, been to doctors, healers and priests but without success. James: They had traveled the world looking for witches that might be able to cure their barrenness, but all in vain. Andrew: After many years of searching and hoping, they had resigned themselves to their situation and were content to mind the children of their neighbours and fellow workers. James: But one day, as the gamekeeper walked home through the forest paths, he came across a basket. Andrew: Attached to the basket was a note, read, “please take care of me” and inside wrapped up in blankets there was a tiny baby. James: He rushed home to his wife to show her what he had found. Andrew: They spent a long time discussing whether or not it would be right for them to keep this child. Who had left it there and why? James: Eventually, they chose to consult the local vicar who assured them that with all of their experience helping to look after their neighbours' children and given that almost everyone else in the village already had children of their own, the right thing would be for them to keep it and raise it as their own. Andrew: This they did, with great success and a fine healthy young man was the product of their labours. James: They had named him Benjamin, after the wife's father and as Benjamin grew in stature, he also grew in the love given to him, not only by them but by others in the village. For everyone enjoyed his outgoing and pleasant company. Andrew: As the years passed the time came for him to take over his father's job as gamekeeper on the estate and this he did. James: He had spent his childhood growing up amongst the forest and knew how to look for the different types of woodland animal and also how to protect them. How best to defend them from poachers and so forth. And so, continuing the charm of his childhood as he started his job, he proved to be more than adept as a gamekeeper and was rapidly promoted until he became head gamekeeper. Andrew: After many years, his parents passed away in a peaceful old age and he moved back to the cottage where he had grown up. James: By this time, he was himself, married, although as with his parents, he and his wife Amelia, had not been able to have a child. Andrew: One day, while out walking in the estate, completing his rounds and jobs, Benjamin too came across a basket with a note attached. James: The note, as the note on his own basket, said “please take care of me” and inside was a tiny child that he took home to Amelia and which as with his parents before him, they decided it was right to adopt. Andrew: Now, the listener will not know that Benjamin's parents had not chosen to share with him the story of how they had found him in a cradle in the woods. And so, it did not occur to him that there was anything unusual about this coincidence. James: As Benjamin and Amelia's daughter, Susanna, grew, she also, much like Benjamin was much loved around the village and when it came time for her to start working, she took over Amelia's job as housekeeper, as Amelia had taken over the job of Benjamin's mother before her. Andrew: And so it was that this story played out from generation to generation. Susanna had a son named Robert. Robert had a daughter named Barbara. Barbara had a son named Tom. James: And always, down through the generations, the same jobs were passed from father to daughter, from daughter to son, across the generations, gamekeeper and housekeeper both. Andrew: But why? Why was it that these popular, lovable, outgoing people were never able to have children of their own? And where was it that the mysterious foundlings were coming from? James: For that, dear listener, we must go back to the first gamekeeper and housekeeper, Benjamin's parents, and see their story from another angle. Andrew: Once upon a time there was a magical forest where there dwelled many sprites and pixies. James: Chief among them was a fairy who had lived for many hundreds of years, spending her time looking after the non-magical creatures of the kingdom. Andrew: Now, many fairies have an ambiguous and complicated relationship with human beings, seeing them somewhat like a tree sees a fungus growing on its bark. James: At times, the fairy would help humans through stumbling difficulties in their lives, but at other times she would punish them for what she saw as a transgression against the magical forest. Andrew: She was, to our eyes, capricious in her whims. Sometimes kind, sometimes cruel. James: One day, the gamekeeper, while walking home through the forest spied a rogue pheasant which had somehow escaped from, as he thought, the forest that he managed. Andrew: What appeared to be a pheasant to his eyes, was in fact the fairy, wandering through her domain. James: He carefully set a trap and as she did not consider him a threat, she walked right into it and was quickly bound and trussed with him carrying her home towards the pot. Andrew: He was not by nature a sentimental person, having spent his life working with the wild animals of the forest. But, there was something about the way this bird fixed him with a seemingly knowing stare as he set it down on the kitchen table that made him think twice about instantly wringing its neck. James: In the moment that he hesitated, the fairy, as fairies sometimes do, cast a spell, not only for her to be released and free but also so that he would forget having ever encountered her. And, as fairies are also sometimes wont to do, she cursed him at that moment, annoyed and upset that she had ignominiously been bound and walked over the forest. She cursed him that he should never have a child to love him. Andrew: Sometime later, the fairy observed his wife walking through the forest and weeping and lamenting her lack of children. James: Unaware that this woman was in any way related to the gamekeeper she had previously cursed, she cast a beneficial spell over the housekeeper that she would have a child that she so clearly desired. Andrew: The child of course, was easy to provide for fairy folk often have children which they need to be raised in the human world. James: And no one ever questioned from Benjamin through Susanna, through Robert, through Barbara, through Tom, why, when their feet touched the ground in the forest, flowers grew in their footsteps. Andrew: And from generation to generation, they continued to live, in the small charming cottage in the middle of the wonderful magical wood.

Shock World Service #043 Genius is a Weapon by Neil Higgins 25/11/2011 London, United Kingdom Almost all the tracks in this mix were released between 1980-82. The outside world seemed to be full of confusion & danger: huger strikes, riots, hostages, assassinations, glue-sniffing & imminent nuclear wipeout. That paranoia & anger fed into the music, giving it this edge of urgency & anger. 1. Cabaret Voltaire - The Voice of America' (Intro) / The Cure - Three Almost all the tracks in this mix were released between 1980-82, with maybe a couple from 1979. The artists I love from this period were fusing punk, funk, reggae, disco and electronics, all in an un-self-conscious way, because the rules hadn't been written yet. Also, in the early 80s the outside world seemed to be full of confusion and danger: huger strikes, riots, hostages, assassinations, glue-sniffing and imminent nuclear wipeout. All that paranoia and anger fed into the music, giving it this edge of urgency and anger. If things continue to fall aaprt maybe we will get some of that back into music? Just a thought. 2. Virgin Prunes - Ulakanakulot Probably Ireland's leading art-goth-pagan-death-cult band of the early 80s. Actually, the only one. In conservative, catholic Ireland of the time the Prunes were an unbelievably confusing and unsettling presence. Gotta admire them for that. This track is from their debut LP ‘If I Die, I Die' and is a suitably sinister groove. 3. David Byrne & Brian Eno - Regiment In 1980 Brian Eno took a couple of months out from basically inventing ambient music to make the ‘My Life in a Bush of Ghosts' album with David Byrne. Cutting and pasting tape loops of African and Arabic vocals and percussion with found-sounds from US TV news and radio evangelists over edgy punk-funk grooves. In the process they pretty much invented a whole new approach to music production, one that paved the way for an era of leftfield sample-based music. The fusion of world music, electronics and dislocated voices sounds like an obvious formula now, but this was 1981 – there were no samplers, MIDI, or laptops. The sampled words ‘… his insane desire to use his genius as a weapon...' are referring to the silent movie director Erich von Stroheim, but they kind of capture the spirit of the music here. 4. James White & the Blacks - Irresistible Impulse If anyone deserves the ‘punk-funk' label, it's got to be James Chance. Another slice of danceable but menacing New York no-wave funk. From the 1982 Album Sax Maniac. I saw him live in London a couple of years ago and he was still on fire… 5. The Slits - Heard it Through the Grapevine ‘Heard it Through the Grapevine' was the b-side of The Slits first single in 1979 and follows a grand tradition of sarcastic punk versions of soul and funk classics. This slice of cynical joy mixes soul, reggae, pop and punk and delivers proper girl power. In fact there were loads of fantastic, strong and edgy female-led bands around at the time. What happened? 6. Bauhaus - Bela Lugosi's Dead Goth-Dub-Horror-Disco starts and ends with ‘Bela Lugosi's Dead' This classic was released in 1979 as a 6-and-a-half minute 12” with a disco-style arrangement, dub effects and unashamed Hammer House lyrics. It should be ridiculous but somehow it's majestic. Undead! Undead! Undead! 7. Yoko Ono - Walking on Thin Ice Yoko Ono ‘Walking on Thin Ice'. Legend has it that it was while returning from the final studio session for this track that John Lennon was shot and killed, and he died clutching the master tapes. The discordant lead guitar on this song was Lennon's last performance – a long journey from ‘I Wanna Hold Your Hand'. It gives Yoko's great song a whole extra level of mystery and significance. ‘When our hearts return to ashes – It'll be just a story…'
