- Jeg tenker at det eneste riktige å gjøre er å gå for det man brenner mest for, sier billedkunstner Ole Martin Lund Bø (48). De siste årene har hans kunstpraksis hatt et tydelige skifte i både form og metode. Før jobbet han konseptbasert med skulpturelle installasjoner og fotografi, mens han de siste årene har brukt tiden sin på å male abstrakte malerier. Ole Martin har hatt en aktiv kunstnerkarriere helt siden han gikk ut fra Kunstakademiet i Bergen for 20 år siden. Han har en rekke utstillinger bak seg, blant annet på Astrup Fearnley museet, Bergen Kunsthall, Fotogalleriet, Kunstnerforbundet og Melk. Verkene hans er kjøpt inn av blant annet Stavanger kunstmuseum, Kode, og Kulturrådet. Christina snakker med ham om å konstant tenke på kunst, om den skapende prosessen som de kommer frem til at minner om en trapp, om motgang og grubling og om å si ja til ting man ikke kan. Episoden er laget i samarbeid med Oslo Open, en årlig Oslo-happening hvor nesten 400 kunstnere ønsker publikum velkommen inn i aterlierene sine. I 2022 skjer det helgen 23-24 april.

It's Halloween, and like the man said: "Ve vant to spin your winyl!" Well, we're spinning our winyl anyway, and they're all rather spookity in honor of the season. First, Jeremy brings new meaning to the season of chilling with a rather cool rendition of Resident Evil with RE:Mixed [The Save Rooms], which is the kind of compilation we always wanted but then didn't want but then secretly totally really wanted. We suppose synthwave might have limited breadth but it's always fun and we pick some fan favorites to show off. Next, Anthony takes us to the weird intersection of horror and feng shui with Kowloon's Gate, a 1997 horror game that defies classification. The game's soundtrack by Kuniaki Haishima is similarly tough to comprehend but we stare into the mouth of its madness with our ears, and marvel at Haishima's liner notes, an absolutely epic manifesto of existence. Finally we shift into horror of another kind: moral panic, with our long-overdue coverage of Night Trap from Ship to Shore Records. We compare and contrast the music of Sunny Blueskyes and Martin Lund with the gameplay, and place it all in the context of the US congressional hearings of the 1990s. No, it doesn't make any more sense now than then. Finally, we fill your trick-or-treat bag with all the new releases in the world of game music on vinyl, but we're going to take our dad tax because it's just how this holiday works.

In Unstable Masks: Whiteness and American Superhero Comics (Ohio State UP, 2020), Sean Guynes and Martin Lund have assembled more than fifteen chapters that interrogate our thinking about superheroes, especially those written and created in the United States, and how those heroes participate in reifying the whiteness of American politics, culture, and worldview. Even as we have seen attempts to diversify the representation within the superhero genre, there is a continued reinscribing of the normative whiteness that frames not only the narratives themselves, but the ideas and images conveyed by the authors, artists, and producers of these works. As Lund and Guynes note, much analysis has been done about the superheroes, especially paying attention to those heroes who deviate from the norm in terms of race, gender, and sexuality. But what has been missing in a great deal of the scholarship is an analysis of the predominant whiteness of superheroes and how the constructed narrative of the genre, of defeating a threat to a particular way of life, country, people, continues to reaffirm the overarching whiteness of this genre. As Lund noted in conversation, the marquee superheroes are unhyphenated, they are simply the normal, everyday superhero, and they are also, by default, white. Whereas Black, or LatinX superheroes are classified as such, and they are thus distinguished from the “normal” superhero. It is not only the characters themselves, in the panels, but also the structure of the story that complies with an understanding of whiteness, and a hierarchy that is often racially structured. The superhero is tasked with fighting for the “good” – but who defines that good, and who benefits from that preserved good? This very understanding of the job of the superhero, to fight for “truth, justice, and the American way” builds on the basis that truth is the same for all members of the society, justice is equally distributed, and the American way is quite clear. Except that none of these are accurate depictions of the reality for those living in the United States (or elsewhere). How we discuss the goals that the superheroes pursue is tied into what it is that we anticipate being restored by a superhero who confronts an enemy. The chapters in Unstable Masks explore this dynamic, focusing on the exceptions as well as those who make up the vast majority of this imaginary space, examining how whiteness informs the understanding of the superhero. The contributing authors not only examine different superheroes at different periods, but they also reach back to examine the way that the superhero genre fits within the American cultural and literary tradition of the western, detective fiction, and the conquest of the frontier where individuals imposed “law and order” on “ungoverned” or “unstable” parts of the continent. This is a fascinating collection; taken together, this edited volume an impressive consideration of the superhero genre, those who created these characters, and the audiences who consume and interact with these ideas. Lilly J. Goren is professor of political science at Carroll University in Waukesha, WI. She is co-editor of the award winning book, Women and the White House: Gender, Popular Culture, and Presidential Politics (University Press of Kentucky, 2012), as well as co-editor of Mad Men and Politics: Nostalgia and the Remaking of Modern America (Bloomsbury Academic, 2015).

This very understanding of the job of the superhero, to fight for “truth, justice, and the American way” builds on the basis that truth is the same for all members of the society, justice is equally distributed, and the American way is quite clear. Except that none of these are accurate depictions of the reality for those living in the United States (or elsewhere). How we discuss the goals that the superheroes pursue is tied into what it is that we anticipate being restored by a superhero who confronts an enemy. The chapters in Unstable Masks explore this dynamic, focusing on the exceptions as well as those who make up the vast majority of this imaginary space, examining how whiteness informs the understanding of the superhero. The contributing authors not only examine different superheroes at different periods, but they also reach back to examine the way that the superhero genre fits within the American cultural and literary tradition of the western, detective fiction, and the conquest of the frontier where individuals imposed “law and order” on “ungoverned” or “unstable” parts of the continent. This is a fascinating collection; taken together, this edited volume an impressive consideration of the superhero genre, those who created these characters, and the audiences who consume and interact with these ideas.

William S. Knudsen er den danskfødte person, der med sine evner og enestående indsats, nok bidrog mest til, at 2. verdenskrig til sidste blev vundet og ikke varede længere end seks år. Erhvervsmanden var et produktionsgeni hos bilgiganten General Motors og kæmpede ikke selv med våben i hånd for at besejre aksemagterne. I stedet stod han i spidsen for produktionen af størstedelen af de våben, som de allierede magter skulle bruge allerede fra 1940, hvor især Storbritannien blev tvunget i knæ af Nazityskland. Knudsen måtte helt fra bunden omlægge USA's industri fra produktion af forbrugsvarer og maskiner til våbenindustri. Det skete i et omfang og på så kort tid, at det er umuligt at overvurdere hans bidrag. I bogen ”BIG BILL” – produktionsgeniet, der satte de allierede i stand til at vinde 2. verdenskrig fortæller journalist Martin Lund historien om københavnerdrengen, der endte som bilbyen Detroits store søn og trestjernet general i spidsen for at USA med præsident Franklin D. Roosevelts ord blev ”demokratiernes arsenal”. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Det er duket for delte meninger i guttegarderoben når lavkulturtantene jazzer om Billy Budd-oppsetningen på Den Norske Opera & Ballett. Mens enkelte er klare for å stupe måke langs planten av ren begeistring, er andre forvirret og litt skuffet over det de trodde skulle være et sjøslag av en shantykor-kavalkade. Ingen av oss har noe særlig forutsetninger for å synse om opera, og det beviser vi på pinligst mulig vis gjennom en hjemmesnekret opera-quiz. Egentlig bør alle være fornøyde med at vi klarer oss gjennom så å si hele episoden uten å bryte ut i sang for å formidle de kruttsterke følelsene våre.Lik oss på Facebook Følg oss på InstagramAndre stikkord: Psychobitch, Aldri mer 13, Skam, kulturell appropriasjon av ungdomskultur og teenagernes skam og sosiale medier, Tik Tok, sportsfilmer, Martin Lund, Emir alias Onge Sushi Mane, Luksusfellen, Camp Kulinaris, Hallgeir Kvadsheim, Jonas Bakkevig, Silje Sandmæl, I lomma på Silje, Tore Petterson, Jenny Jensen og museflettene hennes, Septimus, forbrukerjournalistikk og testing av matnyheter, Grandiosa, Pepsi Max, Tryllefløyten med Atle Antonsen, Delibes’ Lakmé, Kirsten Flagstad, Herman Melville, Moby Dick, Ahabs Wife av Sena Jeter Naslund, Benjamin Britten, War Requiem, alskens fokkeslasker, shantykor, Ashanti-kor, Storm Weather Shanty Choir, Slogmåkane, dokumentaren Arbeidssanger og viser fra seilskutetiden, The Village People, Turboneger, Aftenpostens Slik blir du en operaelsker-guide, Leoncavallos Pagliacci, Seinfeld, MasterChef Australia, YouTube-kanalen Bon Appétit, pulled pork, cronuts, Pringles, Snickers, gips, Rowan Atkinson og Kim Bodnia og alle de andre støttekontaktene til Saga Norén i Broen.

Den norske filmen "Mer eller mindre mann" fikk med seg ikke mindre enn to priser hjem fra den tradisjonsrike filmfestivalen i Karlovy Vary i Tsjekkia i helgen. Regisør Martin Lund kunne hente trofeet for beste film, og skuespiller Henrik Rafaelsen for beste mannlige hovedrolle. "Mer eller mindre mann" hadde sin verdenspremiere på festivalen i Karlovy Vary. Det norske kinopublikumet må smøre seg med tålmodighet og kan først nyte prisvinneren i september. Martin Lund, du har regisert og skrevet manus til filmen. Gratulerer!
