Zolang er al verhalen zijn, worden ze herverteld, bewerkt en aangepast. Met elk nieuw medium worde oude verhalen opnieuw verteld en met elke nieuwe cultuur worden verhalen vertaald en aangepast. Toch is de hendendaagse populaire cultuur nadrukkelijk een plek van hervertellen: prequels, sequels, franchises, de musical, de film, de serie, de reboot en cinematic universes - er is een hervertellingsindustrie ontstaan die herkauwt en bepaalt welke versies van de verhalen in de canon passen en drie vrije bewerkingen met copyrightclaims bedreigt. Omdat vermaak een industrie is en industrie grote investeringen en grote wisten nodig heeft, zijn hervertellingen een veilige keuze die niettemin volledig ingedekt moet worden, betoogt Lindsay Ellis, video-essayiste en schrijfster. Films zijn vaak te duur om te falen, dus worden er oude publiekslievelingen van stal gehaald en in een markt gezet, afgestemd op een rendabele doelgroep. Zijn hervertellingen in essentie altijd heroriëntaties op een ander publiek? Zouden we meer nieuwe verhalen moeten hebben, bijvoorbeeld met diversiteitsquota's, of is trouw blijven aan de fundamentele verhalen van onze cultuur juist belangrijk? Hoe blijven oude verhalen domineren, ook al zijn ze soms problematisch? Te gast is Lieke, mediëvist, net als in aflevering 4 over de vrouwelijke held en aflevering 11 over de Female Gaze. https://youtu.be/rhhLhb-acUI Verwijzingen Intro Lindsay Ellis. “That Time Disney Remade Beauty and the Beast.” 2018. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vpUx9DnQUkA.

Writer, performer, director and producer Kathe Koja rejoins the show to talk about her new story collection, VELOCITIES (Meerkat Press). We talk how she's coping with the pandemic, the importance of having a good working relationship with chaos, and why Russell Hoban's Riddley Walker is more apropos than ever. She gets into her work in immersive theater and how it needs to be reimagined in this era of social distancing, while teasing out details of her new project, Dark Factory. We also get into the upcoming reissue of her cult novel The Cipher this September, why she's bingeing on Babylon Berlin, the one thing she hoarded when things went sideways, why it's important to be open to the messages the world sends us, and what to do when you find a pill lying on the floor in a hospital cafeteria. • More info at our site • Support The Virtual Memories Show via Patreon or Paypal

A commentary for the series 3 episode Blink, after the usual protracted preamble. The book John likes is Riddley Walker by Russell Hoban, available from all good and wicked bookshops. We like the ones who pay their taxes best. https://www.waterstones.com/book/riddley-walker/russell-hoban/9781408832240   The brilliant book podcast that has recently covered Riddley Walker is the Backlisted Podcast: https://www.backlisted.fm/episodes/9-russell-hoban-riddley-walker Una McCormack is in it, and she's one of us.   Lawrence's recommended time travel books are the Lightbringer Trilogy: https://www.fantasticfiction.com/l/samantha-lee/lightbringer-trilogy/   The film John chunters on about is Christopher Smith's excellent horror movie Triangle:  https://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/1212111_triangle  And the film in Smith's oeuvre that John can't quite bring to mind is the excellently silly horror comedy Severance.        

Russell Hoban's extraordinary novel Riddley Walker (1980) is the subject of this episode recorded live at the Port Eliot Festival in Cornwall on Friday July 26th 2019. Joining John and Andy to discuss the book are Max Porter, author of Grief is the Thing With Feathers and Lanny, and New York Times best-selling sci-fi novelist Una McCormack. (Apologies for the sound on this episode, which is muffled at points, we had a few technical hiccoughs. And read the book!)

Russell Hoban’s Riddley Walker was originally published in 1980.  The novel is set in Kent some two or three thousand years after a nuclear holocaust which has destroyed the land, plunging society back to iron-age levels of technology.   Its foundational myth, the Eusa story, grown out of the scattered fragments of ancient history, is the story of how technological progress led to the nuclear war and the long dark age which is referred to as “Bad Time.”  After the death of his father in an accident at work, Riddley, our narrator, eventually finds himself leaving the community and heading out alone on a quest to rediscover and perhaps return to prosperity of the ancients.  The story is told in an imagined, future dialect of English which, though rugged and decayed, has its own alien poetry.  Over the course of the episode, we discuss Hoban’s invented dialect, his plundering of English folklore, what it means to create a mythology, and the pivotal significance of the figure of The Green Man.

Tolkien's The Return of the King, the third part of The Lord of the Rings. Andy also talks about Russell Hoban's classic Riddley Walker, while John has been reading Crudo, the acclaimed new novel by Olivia Laing.
