Singapore animation has reached a major milestone — with a local film selected for the main competition at the Annecy International Animation Film Festival, the first time in the festival’s 65-year history. Behind that recognition lies a more complicated reality. It took close to a decade, cross-border partnerships, and significant public funding to bring a single project to life — and even then, it may not have been possible on purely commercial terms. On Industry Insight, Lynlee Foo speaks with Justin Deimen, Executive Producer of The Violinist and Executive Director at Singapore’s Intercultural Theatre Institute, to examine what it really takes to build animation at scale — from financing structures and talent constraints to the role of international co-productions and distribution.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Improvisation is considered a high art form for an instrumentalist, but what about for a composer?  Is it even possible to create a piece of music for an ensemble, and to hear it performed in real time?  How would you go about that? You would have to have an entire group imagining together.  Lawrence "Butch" Morris did it by creating a compositional language that allowed him to convey musical ideas using physical gestures.     His system, which he called "Conduction," was immediately transformative.  He created compositions in real time that were shaped by the musical language and the performances of the participating musicians.  It was an unprecedented musical spontaneity.    Butch Morris died in 2013, but Conduction is still making new breakthroughs in the hands of successive generations of musical thinkers.  Violinist/composer Mazz Swift, who worked with Butch Morris, is one of them.  New forms and ideas continually emerge, and Butch Morris endures as a shaping influence.     This Monday (Jan. 19), Mazz Swift joins host Mitch Goldman for a Deep Focus on Butch Morris.  Do the vast WKCR archives contain live, unreleased recordings of Butch Morris?  We certainly hope so!  Tune in to find out.   Deep Focus this Monday (Jan 19) from 6p to 9p NYC time on WKCR 89.9FM, WKCR-HD, or wkcr.org.   Or join us when it goes up on the Deep Focus podcast on your favorite podcasting app or at https://mitchgoldman.podbean.com/.  Subscribe right now to get notifications when new episodes are posted.  Just like WKCR, it's ad-free, sponsor-free, all free, totally non-commercial.  We won't even ask for your contact info.   Learn more about Deep Focus at https://mitchgoldman.com/about-deep-focus/ or join us on Instagram @deep_focus_podcast.   Photo credit: Butch Morris - photo by Anthony Barboza - nmaahc.si.edu/object/nmaahc_2014.157.7 fair use under Section 108 of the U.S. Copyright Act.   #WKCR #DeepFocus #ButchMorris #LawrenceButchMorris #MazzSwift #JazzRadio #JazzPodcast #JazzInterview #MitchGoldman   Deep Focus is a production of Small Media Large.

gently broken by the lights, which cast a warmer glow over the sharp edges of the building's architecture.No: Stemmen inni Eirik fortalte ham at dette var kvelden han skulle overvinne sin frykt.En:

his head said this was the opportunity he needed.No: I stedet for å la muligheten gå fra seg, gikk Eirik stille fram i mørket, fiolinen hans var som en forlenger av sjelen.En: Instead of letting the moment pass him by, Eirik quietly moved forward in the darkness, his violin like an extension of his soul.No: Han satte buen til strengene og lot musikken flyte.En: He set the bow to the strings and let the music flow.No: Den akustiske lyden fylte det mørke rommet.En: The acoustic sound filled the dark room.No: For Eirik var det som om tonene fortalte historier om kjærlighet, håp og tap, mens de vakre melankolske melodiene svevde gjennom katedralen.En: For Eirik, it was as if the tones told stories of love, hope, and loss, while the beautiful melancholic melodies floated through the cathedral.No: Det føltes som om tiden sto stille.En: It felt as if time stood still.No: Publikum, fanget av den uventede skjønnheten, satt musestille og lyttet.En: The audience, captivated by the

om fremtiden.En: With newfound confidence and self-acceptance, Eirik firmly grasped his future.No: Kvelden på katedralen ble ikke bare et vendepunkt som fiolinist, men et livsforandrende øyeblikk som menneske.En: The evening at the cathedral was not just a turning point as a violinist, but a life-changing moment as a human being.No: Og idet den samiske nasjonaldagen nærmet seg sin slutt, var

Professional violinist Joy Black attributes her career to a "Fateful Dream" at age 13. This vision served as the blueprint for her journey from a bullied teenager to a global performer. On The Ash Said It Show, Joy discusses the surreal experience of "living the vision," emphasizing that her success is a result of radical persistence and manifestation. Joy Black navigates the intersection of R&B, Hip Hop, and Classical genres by treating the violin as a versatile vocal instrument. When collaborating with major artists like Latto, she strategically selects a specific "voice" for the violin—choosing between the grit of electric strings for Hip Hop or the soulful resonance of traditional acoustic for R&B to match the artist's energy. As a composer, Joy Black utilizes a melody-led approach to achieve immense emotive depth. Rather than starting with a pre-defined emotion, she allows the melody to dictate the narrative. This organic process ensures that the music resonates spiritually with the audience, often serving as a catalyst for mental and emotional release. Joy Black is a vocal advocate for representation and shattering barriers in the classical music world. By appearing on global stages as a Black woman with natural hair, she directly challenges traditional stereotypes. She uses her platform to prove that the violin is a universal tool for expression, redefining the "classical" aesthetic for the next generation of musicians. For her "intimate and immersive" Valentine's event in Atlanta, Joy is curating a setlist that balances romantic intimacy with her trademark high-energy style. The performance is designed to be multi-sensory, moving from soft, spiritual compositions to explosive rhythmic arrangements that define her signature sound.
