  In this episode of Explain Me, critic and curator Antwaun Sargent joins us to discuss the effects of the pandemic and Alex Greenberger's Zombie Figuration, a confusing essay that appeared earlier this month in ARTnews. In the first half hour we discuss the disparate effects of the pandemic and general politics. Then we move on to art, zombies,  race,  and why art has limits.    BIOGRAPHY Antwaun Sargent is an art critic and a writer who has contributed to The New York Times, The New Yorker, Vice and more, as well as essays to multiple museum publications. His first book, “The New Black Vanguard: Photography between Art and Fashion” (Aperture) is out now. In April he announced a new partnership with Gagosian that will include working on four exhibitions and contributing features to their magazine.  Follow him on Twitter and Instagram.    LISTENER ADVISORY: In this episode, Paddy Johnson occasionally repeats Antwaun Sargent's words when his audio cuts out. This leads to periodic moments when Johnson and Sargent speak at the same time.    LINKS First There Was Zombie Formalism, Now There is Zombie Figuration Met Apologies to Glenn Ligon Noah Davis Barkley Hendricks Kehinde Wiley  Cinga Samson Peter Saul  Alice Neal Jordan Casteel Jordan Casteel at the New Museum EARLY WHITNEY BIENNIAL REVIEWS  Paddy Johnson Andrew Russeth Linda Yablonsky   Find us on Spotify, Stitcher, and Apple Podcasts

Show Notes 2:47 - Wes tried Cloudflare Workers Also this is so cool: Hey Wes, just listened to the latest Syntax episode on the serverless setup. Not sure if it’s an episode idea or not, but if you wanna do a bit of a dive on Cloudflare’s service workers, I’m currently leading an “invisible infrastructure migration” right now from a legacy WordPress setup to a new Storyblok/Netlify setup. We’re using Cloudflare’s service workers to basically “stitch” the headers/menus/footers from the old WordPress site into our new Netlify pages, but serving the page back as if it was part of the normal domain. This means we can migrate from the old to the new slowly without massively disrupting SEO, doing a lengthy/costly rebuild, etc. A word on Digital Ocean Kubernetes + FAAS allows you to scale up/down 13:54 - Secret management Some have a great UI Some have a CLI Some only have production Some have dev/staging/prod 16:24 - Vendor lock-in Two kinds of vendor lock-in Lock into a low-level provider (Like AWS, or MongoDB) Lock into a framework Questions to ask: Can I go, take my app as-is, and host it on another provider? Can I refactor the config and run my code as-is? Do I need to refactor my code for it to run on other platforms? Next.js will only run on Now There is a community package Begin all runs on Arc.codes Firebase is locked in? 25:12 - Sharing dependencies Each function will have its own package.json, which can be a pain Publish utils a private module AWS Layers Import/export Bundle and tree shake 30:26 - Local development Now dev NPX sandbox Wrangler for Cloudflare workers 36:40 - Existing applications Difficult to move with many routes, but easy to move a Graphql API that has one single route Maybe do piece by piece instead of all at once Begin has http express method 45:21 - Data Any DB you want Dynamo DB integrated into many Firebase KV Storage for Cloudflare workers Fauna 48:14 - File storage Generally files go in the associated file place like Amazon S3, Backblaze B2, Cloudinary Many also have this integrated as well 52:18 - Auth Serverless is ephemeral and stateless JWT likely as sessions will work, but doesn’t really make sense Links Cloudflare Workers Akamai MongoDB Stitch Hitler uses Kubernetes Digital Ocean Kubernetes Firebase Google Cloud Architect Next.js Now.sh Begin Netlify Now Wrangler Apollo Federation Monaco Postman Codesandbox DynamoDB Amazon S3 Backblaze B2 Cloudinary ××× SIIIIICK ××× PIIIICKS ××× Scott: The Power of Bad by John Tierney Wes: Socket Organizer Shameless Plugs Scott: Animating React with Framer Motion - Sign up for the year and save 25%!

Look, we recorded this one around Christmas, so today's episode has a certain theme to it. A certain sort of motif. And we're not saying it's "eat the rich." That's not the theme. We're definitely not landing on that one. Boot the rich? Now THERE'S a theme. Besides, who has time to hate on rich folks when we're too busy grilling indoors, storing change in our water bottles, and doing puzzles that our just for boys. Certainly not us. And all at 1hr 6min too. It's a Christmas ... what's the opposite of a miracle? Shitshow? That one.

There's nothing worse than Christians who develop an urging to debate minutia. We're not talking about the folks out there, like the apologists, who debate real issues for a living - or a ministry - we're talking about dumb discussions and debates over bible versions, dinosaurs and other silly things that have no earthly (or heavenly) meaning. Then there's the debates that Christians get into with non-Christians. Now THERE'S a Faith Buster!

At first glance, Tracey’s house looks like it just returned in time from an episode of “Back to The Tiny House Future”. Honestly, we have never seen anything like it and her story is just as original as her vision. If your taste leans towards Modern Minimalist and you’re not a fan of all the barn wood encrusted, cabin-like tiny houses you’ve seen, you’ll LOVE the ideas and materials she has incorporated in her ultra-modern tiny house on wheels. External insulation? Yep! TWO breaker boxes? Check! A porch and stairs to dream about? Got it! An Incinolet toilet? It’s in there. Listen in this week while we chat about how her new life is everything she dreamed about while growing up in an RV with her family. Now THERE’s a storyline twist we didn’t expect.

Grab your headphones—and maybe a beer. Prefer wine? We can do that, too. We're happy to introduce the first episode of a new podcast, which we're calling the LSB Marketing Toddcast, hosted by our very own Todd LaBeau. For the first Toddcast, Todd's guest is Lindsay Ferris, SVP and Chief Marketing Strategist here at LSB. What you'll find in the episode The notion of ad formats is dying. Sure, you may see some :30 TV commercials, print ads, or banner ads. But they're not driving what we do anymore. In the past, a a client would come to an agency with a specific need: We need a TV spot. It will have a beginning, middle and end and a clear call-to-action. Now? There's an explosion of channels. Apps, branded content, social media content ... there are so many ways to consume media and content, those old formats are hardly relevant. What will happen if the advertising industry doesn't change? Well, just look at the music industry for a tip. So what are some of the ways things are different? Co-creation of content Start by thinking about what American Express did with Seth Meyers. Consider Stephen Colbert's brand integrations. Because while traditional formats may be disappearing, brands still need to market themselves. But they need to find new ways of doing so. Paid, earned and owned media Traditional campaigns relied heavily on paid media—they were often almost 100 percent reliant on paid media. Your classic paid advertising placements. Modern campaigns, however, use earned and owned media aggressively, as well. What's earned media? It includes traditional PR, as well as more organic impressions that appear on channels you don't control, including social media. Owned media are the channels a brand controls—websites, apps or blogs. The critical mass comes when brands use these three media types symbiotically. The idea. AKA Story-doing, not story-telling. What really drives a modern campaign is an idea. Not a tagline. An idea like: What if you could stay the night inside a Van Gogh painting? That's an idea. It's not just a story you tell, it's a story you do. Modern campaigns essentially should be story-boarded. What's your social object? What kind of media coverage (earned media) can you garner about said object? Don't forget trade media. How can you use paid support to drive more traffic to your earned media hits? What's next—can you leverage your owned channels to support the campaign? Yes, this can be scary. There's freedom in modern campaigns. But freedom can also be terrifying. The important thing to remember is that these ideas don't need to cost millions of dollars.

"WHO'S THE GOOD GUY?!"If I were to choose a hymn to go with the Scripture today - Luke18:9-14. in which the hated tax collector is shown mercy and the selfrighteousness religious leader is sent away without any, I would chooseAmazing Grace.Growing up as we do in a tit for tat world, where the good shouldbe rewarded and the bad should be condemned, we just don't understandthe way God does things. God saves those we would damn, and setsfree those we would capture. God restores those whom we might leavebroken. While we set about to be righteous and look down upon thosewho have not climbed to our heights, God is busy blessing the unrighteous,and calling our self righteousness into question. God's Grace IS amazingand downright disgusting - depending upon where we placedourselves in the Scripture. God's Mercy is unfathomable exceptperhaps to those who need it most.The wretched tax collector who collected from his fellow Jewswhat taxes Rome required and a lot more that he could get away with tokeep for himself, finally had his guilt catch up with him, confessed that hewas a wretched sinner - in contrast to a former member of our churchwho would not come to church if we sang Amazing Grace. "I amNOT a wretch!" He would vehemently declare - and he wasn't, he wasa very good guy, but his name did rhyme with Warlock - which I believe isa male witch! (I threw that in, just so you'd know how seasonally relevantI am!) "Amazing grace, how sweet the sound, that saved aWRETCH like me!"God seems a little prejudiced toward the sinner if the truth betold! In so many of the parables, the supposed "bad guy" is the good guyand the bad guy - the good - thus the sermon title, WHO'S THE GOODGUY?!Today's Scripture Lesson from the Lectionary usually results in uslooking down our noses (we Christians are VERY good at that!) - lookingdown our noses at the self-righteous Pharisee which puts us in the exactcategory we seek to disavow! Oh, ow!Is it possible only to be deemed "good" by being bad? Are wemissing a real opportunity here to live it up? What IS going on with thisScripture?We're not the only ones to wonder. The early disciples who firstheard the words couldn't believe what they were hearing. For them, it isutterly unseemly, almost laughable to think someone who does what thetax collector does would even dare to PRAY for mercy. They found itscandalous that grace is offered to such a scoundrel so easily. Wherewere the works of absolution? Where were the terrible nights of anguishthat prove his remorse is not short-lived? Where were the years of goingabout righting wrongs, returning the extra fees collected that made himrich while he watched his neighbors struggle to survive?What we have to come to is the truth that mercy is at God'sdiscretion, forgiveness is available to all who ask for it and righteousnessis a gift, not an accomplishment.We are imbued with what the theologians call work righteousness.The Apostle Paul tried to warn us to clue us in: "For by grace are wesaved though faith, not works, lest any person should boast." And,he asks a good question, "Shall we sin that grace may abound?!"Now THERE'S an idea! But we won't be practicing THAT any time soon.Essentially, this parable is about judging - or rather, not judging.Let's not cast aspersions on what God wants to do in the forgiving business.We may need some of that blanket forgiveness ourselves at some futuredate.But in the meantime, our job as Christians is not to judge but tojoin those who are recipients of God's Grace - to invite them to join us.They don't need our judgement - they don't need to see us looking downour noses at them - as all the "righteous" people of Jesus time looked atthe tax collector.A few years ago, I decided to be in my office five days a week,not six as I had done for thirty years. Still, I wanted to be of service onthat extra day I now had off - so I went to a Rotary Club - in Ft. Lauderdale,near my home. The president was very welcoming, but I can't say theclub was. They had some get togethers, but no projects where you coulddo what Rotarians do - not in the weeks that I was there. It was a prettyritzy club, meeting in a ritzy environment and I didn't see why I should beexcluded..I had a ritzy house and a ritzy car and I could afford the ritzypriced breakfast. . The fact was it was not about me at all. They werehaving such a good time with the people they already knew and liked, thatalthough I was there, I was there and not there. They didn't see me andfind me wanting, they didn't find me at all - they didn't see me at all. I wasnot a member of their club. I continued to attend for several weekswhen that fact became painfully obvious.I went to the district meeting of Rotary which members of Rotaryclubs all over the district attended. Unfortunately, no one from my RotaryClub of Miami Beach was there so I sat down with my Rotary friendsfrom my "extra day" club. "Sorry," one of them said, "this area isreserved from members of our Club." I went to another table, but Inever went back to THEIR club.Years ago, this church made a decision not to be a Club. It decidedto be welcoming to everyone despite the fact that some of the memberswanted the leadership and membership to be essentially white, anglosaxon,country club people. Those same members, di not want Blacks,Latins, gays or children in the church - i.e. children not white and anglosaxon.The Chairman of the Board, a young man, Doug Bischoff wasadamant that the church should be open and welcoming to all. I rememberhim saying, "It's o.k. for my country club to be a country club, butit's not o.k. for my church to be a country club."Up until that effort began, people in the community believed thatthis church was for the rich only. In fact an outstandingly talented flautistwho played here with the Symphony of the Americas lived in Miami Beachas a child, told of playing jacks on the front steps of the church, wonderingif she would "ever be rich enough to be allowed to go in."It was a club and a clique-y one at that. The problem is, and whatwe are being asked to see is that without meaning to be, we are still TheClub in our own way - we are the Pharisee judging anyone who is differentfrom ourselves.Years ago I read this in the Saturday Review. It shows the dangerin insisting that everyone be just like ourselves.In cobra country, a mongoose was born one day who didn'twant to fight cobras or anything else. The word spread frommongoose to mongoose that there was a mongoose who didn't wantto fight cobras. If he didn't want to fight anything else, it was hisown business, but it was the duty of every mongoose to kill cobrasor be killed by cobras."Why?" asked the peacelike mongoose, and the word wentaround that the strange new mongoose was not only pro-cobra andanti-mongoose but intellectually curious and against the ideals andtraditions of mongooism. "He is crazy" cried the youngmongoose's father. "He is sick," said his mother. He is a coward,"shouted his brothers. "He is a mongoosexual, whispered hissisters.Strangers who had never laid eyes on the peacelikemongoose remembered that they had seen him crawling on hisstomach, or trying on cobra hoods, or plotting the violent overthrowof Mongoosia. "I am trying to use reason and intelligence," saidthe strange new mongoose. "Reason is sex-sevenths of treason,said one of his neighbors. "Intelligence is what the enemy uses, "said another.Finally, the rumor spread that the mongoose had venom inhis sting, like a cobra, and he was tried, convicted by a show ofpaws and condemned to banishment.Moral, Ashes to ashes and clay to clay. If the enemy doesn'tget you your own folks may - those in "The Club" that seek to keepeveryone else out.So here we are on a Sunday - confident in our spirituality, enjoyingthe fellowship of the church - meaning enjoying all the people we alreadyknow and love - and, unfortunately - not seeing, not welcoming thenewcomer, the stranger, the person not yet a part of that fellowship, theperson who is different from us - not like us - but hurting for a word ofwelcome.When we hear about the Pharisee, let us be totally aware of howvery much in danger we are of becoming the very thing we look down ournose at, because of the subtleties by which we can get into that realitybefore we even realize it.It isn't that we're bad or mean, we're simply caught up in theenjoyment of being together with people we know and love. Yet thechurch exists not for the people in it, but for the people not in it yet. That'swhere our focus should be on Saturday morning when we have theopportunity to invite people to come with us on Sunday, and Sunday afterchurch where we can seek out the stranger and the guest.Every member and friend of the church - every regular attendershould be what we call in church growth parlance - a new person spotter- who then becomes a new-person welcomer - otherwise we have heardthe parable but missed the very point that Jesus wanted to make by tellingit.We are not the important, VIP, "Country Club" people - we arethe servants of God intent upon widening the circle of God's House toinclude others than ourselves.We are not to be the Pharissee, who felt that he was better thanothers, nor do we want to be. He went home not right with God. "Peoplewho make themselves important will be made humble, but thosewho make themselves humble will be made important.""There were some people who thought they were very goodand looked down on everyone else. Jesus used this story to teachthem." Once to every man and nations comes the moment to decide, ifwe will learn the lesson or not. WHO'S THE GOOD GUY?!Sermon Notes(Not edited nor proofed)The Rev.
