Today's episode is a heavy yet necessary topic: creativity as activism. When two Black Democratic lawmakers were expelled from the House of Representatives in Tennessee for joining a peaceful anti-gun violence protest, I began to reflect on the ways I have used my creativity as activism. In this episode, I share a poem I wrote during the height of the Black Lives Matter movement (TRIGGER WARNING: death) and I share my thoughts about how to care for your mental health as a creative activist.

He will dive and discover with us and himself into the unknown and exciting deep ocean of the creative mind. In this podcast Schlich talks with singer and songwriter Matthew Robb. Robb's lyrical style of song poetry developed from a love of old-time country blues and his early years as a spoken word performance artist. Alongside his distinctive take on the americana genre coupled with intelligent and thought provoking songwriting he regularly tours and performs internationally with his band but also solo when called for. Matthew has up to now released three well-acclaimed albums and currently lives with his family in Cologne, Germany in a self-built home made from reclaimed material. Albums can take time to ripen. For around thirty years the Cologne-based singer-songwriter has been making music. Now at the age of 48, he is releasing his first record. But the waiting was worthwhile. Bob Dylan himself could learn a thing or two from these 9 finely crafted songs. Influenced by the country blues, Matthew Robb's musical arrangements grab your attention with their sheer simplicity. His voice, guitar and harp awaken the great traditional folk music of the American West. Without exception though, it's the profound scope and depth of his lyrics that really make the compositions so contemporary and outstanding, Like a thread running through the album, the song poet speaks to the disillusionment of people living amongst the greed, procrastination and general malaise of a materialistic society, with themes as varied as modern-day slavery and the death of a close friend from alcoholism. However, despite this melancholic backdrop, Robb's songs radiate a great hope that within mankind there lies a strength to lay that burden down.As in the River, which says “There is a river that runs through you”Erik Prochnow https://folker.de/rezis/rezensionen.php?ausgabe=201706®ion=euSchlich is Visual Artist, Film Maker and Ritual Designer, living and loving in West Cork and best known for his Essay about the Cause and Effect of Shamanism, Art and Digital Culture and the video installation of Transodin´s Tragedy.

Dietfried Dembowski, ein echter Ermittler, und sein DID-Team, um Allround-Experte Justin Hagenberg-Scholz und (vielleicht bald nicht mehr Internationalisierungsikone) Miriam Wu haben in den vergangenen Jahren an der wichtigsten Neuerung im Weltfußball gearbeitet. Das DID POWER RANKING macht den Fußball jeden Tag ein wenig vergleichbarer. Aufgrund unterschiedlichster, nicht zu manipulierender Faktoren erstellen die Daten-Wizards Woche für Woche einen Überblick über den aktuellen Stand der Dinge in den Top-Ligen Europas.

Keiner hat darauf gewartet, endlich ist er da: ein weiterer Podcast. Worum geht’s? Um die Bruchstellen unseres Lebens. Keine Panik, nichts Dramatisches. Es geht um die kleinen, alltäglichen Risse im Alltag. Neues, Fremdes, Unbekanntes, Zufälliges und wundervoll Kaputtes. Eben um alles, was wir sonst ignorieren, schnell wegbügeln oder uns nicht die Zeit nehmen, die Chance darin zu erkennen. Mithilfe großer und kleiner Vordenker, ungewöhnlicher Perspektiven und hoffentlich neuen Brillen, tauchen Hirad und Marc in diese Bruchstellen ab – und fördern für dich das Gold darin zutage. Zum Auftakt wollen wir gemeinsam mit dir die Weihnachts-Legoburg umtreten und zwischen Kniffel, Korn und Christstollen ein wenig “radical christmas” feiern. Also sperr die Lauscher auf für eine Mischung aus Trash und Literatur, Pop und Philosophie, Podcast und Spoken Word-Performance. Lass uns gepflegt umperfekt sein. Wir gehen mit gutem Beispiel voran und haben für aufmerksame Hörer/innen direkt ein Sound-Problem in die letzten Minuten dieser Episode eingebaut. Wir hätten es nochmal aufgenommen, aber wir mussten zum Flieger. Viel Vergnügen mit der Premiere von Fugengold.

Peteh Muhammad Haroon, affectionally known as Brotha’ P, is an inspirational Spoken Word Performance and recording artist and native of New Orleans, LA. Brotha’ P has been performing his unique style of poetry since 1995 as a member of Nommo Literary Society. After leaving Louisiana in 2005, Brotha’ P moved to Jonesboro, Arkansas, where he was reconnected to the world of agriculture–a world he was introduced to as a child. As a student of Arkansas State University, Brotha’ P, along with others who were interested in growing their own food, established a Student Garden Organization. The intentions of the organization were for the garden to grow into a place where students without an agricultural background could have a place to experience a hands-on food growing course and learn to start and maintain a home garden. After being elected and serving as the first President of the organization for a year, Brotha’ P decided to return to New Orleans to pursue his burning passion to establish gardens throughout local neighborhoods. Spending countless hours under the sun volunteering at the Village Ova da River and the Teche Street Garden, he was offered the opportunity to serve as a landscaper with Common Ground Health Care Clinic. Currently, Brotha’ P is working with New Orleans Food and Farm Network and others local organizations such as the Backyard Gardener’s Network to create sustainable green spaces throughout the city of New Orleans. For more information, Brotha’ P can be reached by email at anotherfamilyproduction@yahoo.com. This episode is sponsored The Hearst Ranch. “I’m looking forward to getting back into [New Orleans] and helping them, I grew up with those people . . .it is my full intent to help any backyard garden in the lower 9th Ward.” –Brotha’ P on Greenhorn Radio

Der deutsche Shooting Star Jonathan Meese, der im Essl Museum in Klosterneuburg bis 3. Februar 2008 mit der sehenswerten Ausstellung Fraeulein Atlantis vertreten ist, Karlheinz Essl jun., der die Soundinstallation zu dieser Ausstellung schuf und Alfred Krondraf von Kulturwoche.at trafen sich gegen Mittag des 20. September 2007 zu einem Gespraech. Das Gespraech handelte von Tierbabys, von der Zusammenarbeit zwischen Kuenstlern, von der Demut und was Kunst alles sein kann. Am Abend desselben Tages eroeffnete Jonathan Meese die Ausstellung mit einer mehr als einstuendigen Spoken Word Performance, die ihn an den Rand der physischen Leistungsfaehigkeit brachte und in der er an "der Kunst lutsche wie an einem Lolly".
