Podcasts about sewing machines

Today: In 1979, Nurse With Wound entered a UK recording studio with no musical training whatsoever and created an album called Chance Meeting on a Dissecting Table of a Sewing Machine and an Umbrella, which promptly was awarded a rating of five question marks from Sounds Magazine. Since then, NWW has confounded critics and listeners alike, both pioneering and mining the areas of improvisation, Krautrock-influence, electroacoustic experiments and more, with unparalleled sense of invention and quite often humor. Today, Brian Turner reflects back on the massive body of work by this shifting ensemble, digging out a rare interview he did with its central figure, Steven Stapleton, from his Irish goat farm.NURSE WITH WOUND - Rock N' Roll Station - Rock N' Roll Station (United Dairies, 1994)NURSE WITH WOUND - Fragments I - Who Can I Turn To Stereo Etc.

I might think of this as the first piece of my National Poetry Month observance this year, or as a piece the follows on from my Alice Dunbar Nelson "I Sit and Sew"  performance earlier in March.  "She Dreams of Sewing Machines"  is part of my set of Memory Car sonnets dealing with a daughter's experience of her mother's dementia.  The Parlando Project combines various words (mostly literary poetry) with original music in differing styles. We've done over 800 of these, and we will be adding several more as part of our April  #NPM2025 participation.  You can hear any of our previous audio pieces and read about experience performing them at our blog and archives, located at frankhudson.org

We're back with the first episode of the spring 2025 season! We chat about our sewing machines - the ones we learned on, the ones we have today, and the ones we want in the future. Plus: we catch up about what we did on our winter break, name our fave sewing machine features and pet peeves, and share what our machines are named! Show Notes

A lot of sewing techniques being taught and used today came from the mind of one innovator: Helen Blanchard.

Isaac Singer's iteration of a mechanised sewing machine received US Patent Number 8294 on 12th August, 1851.  By refining an existing design by Elias Howe, and improving it with a straight-line shuttle and straight needle, Singer's prototype produced 900 stitches a minute, compared to 40 stitches by hand, drastically reducing the time it took to make garments; a beacon of efficiency that slashed production time from hours to mere minutes. In this episode, Arion, Rebecca and Olly explore the racier chapters of Singer's private life; marvel at his Steve Jobs-level business acumen; and explain how he turned his initially business-to-business product into a hitherto unprecedented multinational corporation… Further Reading: • 'How Singer Won the Sewing Machine War' (Smithsonian Magazine, 2015): https://www.smithsonianmag.com/smithsonian-institution/how-singer-won-sewing-machine-war-180955919/ • ‘Business: Red S' (TIME, 1929): https://content.time.com/time/subscriber/article/0,33009,737940,00.html • ‘How the Sewing Machine Changed Daily Life' (Henry Ford's Innovation Nation, 2020): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i3kh2CDAccU This episode first premiered in 2023, for members of

The old sewing machine clacks busily under your guidance. Stitch after stitch, you are creating something original. It feels good to be productive. Don't worry that the needle sounds a bit wobbly every now and then; that's just part of the process. Beauty resides in those distinctive imperfections. Sometimes, they become a signature, setting you apart from the crowd. Stay motivated, and embrace what makes you unique. ---

We asked Articles of Interest host Avery Trufelman to help us find the answer.Got a question that's got you in stitches? Send it to us at BrainsOn.org/contact, and we'll help thread the needle!

Adrian and Leon share an album with each other. Adrian loves the album he shared with Leon and the same goes for the album Leon shared with Adrian. However, the person sharing the album has carefully chosen an album that the other will hate. The exercise is to choose an album that will cause extreme irritation and displeasure by listening to it. The joy of this chat is hearing the different ways that each person hears the same album. Adrian has recommended Aja by Steely Dan and Leon recommended Chance Meeting on a Dissecting Table of a Sewing Machine and an Umbrella by Nurse with Wound. What do you think of these albums?
