A viking ship appears on the horizon, a likeness of Alice Coltrane carved into its bow. Rare birds flock together to sing Francoise Hardy as soul hits. A sunset of blips and bleeps fills the air.

“The possibilities that lie in the future are infinite. When I say ‘It is our duty to remain optimists,’ this includes not only the openness of the future but also that which all of us contribute to it by everything we do: we are all responsible for what the future holds in store. Thus it is our duty, not to prophesy evil but, rather, to fight for a better world” (Karl Popper, The Myth of the Framework, 1994)

I have just read two books set after different iterations of American revolutions. One is much more hopeful ... or maybe just set at a more post-revolutionary inflection point, where mutual aid is the law of the land and the last strongholds of reaction have been broken, a retrospective look back at the revolution from the perspective of twenty years on. Framed as an oral history.

The other is set in a much more broken place, with the U.S. gone and the landmass divided into rump capitalist states (the Northeast and central Midwest), the United Christian States (the South, broadly), the Republics of Texas and California (soft socialism, it seems like), Cascadia (same), several resurgent Indigenous nations, the Kingdom of Albuquerque, and the Heavenly Kingdom, an EVEN MORE reactionary theocratic state that carves out territory from the UCS and Republic of Texas. Most of the book is about a war between HK and Texas. And about trauma.

So, two looks at two post-revolutionary points. Been on my brain lately. Just hoping the revolution comes before I'm too old to help out.

For the next few years remember this: Don't Take The Bait

Greenland, renaming the gulf, taking Canada/Mexico.

It's meant to exhaust you, it's meant to cause distraction, it's meant to cause excitement in his base.

You can't change the wind but you can adjust your sails. And if you think I stole that from Dav Pilkey's Dog Man comics, yes yes I did as that series is fantastic and is an example of what you can do.

Seek out and support artists that stand against fascists, volunteer where you can, donate to food banks/shelters. Check in on friends or neighbors. Do what you can to pass kindness to others.

But do not take the bait. Bastards survive off an enraged population, they die when they're ignored.

This is one reason why I’m taking a break from the news for a few weeks.

I wonder if trying to assign value to it is talking in terms of the conquerors. I mean, all art is made under capitalism and nothing is clean and we all do what we can. But I worry that asking about what it's value is is speaking in their language instead of sticking with art for what it is: a thing that isn't trying to sell you something, the opposite of a commercial. Yes, artists gotta eat, and you have to sell your art, but the creation, the Ding an sich, is in some ways a rejection of conversations about value. Or could be?

I have a friend whose philosophy work deals with art that "rescues us *into* emergency" -- art that strips back the blinders of the political theater as already mentioned in this chat to force us to confront the underlying and eclipsed emergencies that all the fake ones are designed to conceal.

Maria is quite a bit better than the average biopic because its director, Pablo Larain, is quite a bit better than the average filmmaker. Jolie was passable, but it essentially boils down to the filmmaking (which includes the storytelling).

On the "value of art" topic.... I've created a lot of music and computer-based art over the decades... most of it has never been seen or heard except for by friends. I've never tried to sell anything because I've always had a day job. The most valuable thing, to me, was the music that was made with other people, not just me sitting in a room by myself. Improvising with other people, creating together in real-time, is a pretty intense way of coming together that is intrinsically valuable. As Fredericks said, Jazz requires listening to others. For me, the value of art is the interpersonal connection it can foster.

This is exactly me: BP and anxiety. Used to be a three–Diet Coke person, with maybe a coffee. Sleep definitely got better after tapering off to just one, once in a while, plus maybe for emergency/driving alertness.

Nice. I sometimes get pigeons under my AC unit, but not so much this year as an owl has started using it as a hunting perch at night. My bedroom faces into the concrete courtyard/appliance graveyard of my building which has a large drainage grate -- apparently rodents of various sorts are highly visible against the concrete. There's a pocket park across the street with actual trees that they roost/sleep in. Owls are SO quiet it's spooky. I only knew one was there when I heard it hoot --probably someone else horning in on "his" courtyard. I did a very tentative peek (so as not to scare it away) and caught a large shadow.

I was thrilled to hear Trouble mention her mission of waking up the world’s listenership to the magic of reggae. In that vein, if you haven’t started your Sunday mornings with the Reggae Schoolroom lately - or possibly ever – please give it a shot. DJ Jeff Sarge spins the best reggae and dub gems - you'll marvel! (wfmu.org...)

A recent development there is that there is now a real-time, active playlist during the show, which I’m honored to say I’m helping to provide each week. Also, I’m chipping away at past shows that did not have playlists made when the shows were first aired. I’m almost done with 2023, and 2024 is complete. Okay great, see you there!

Respectfully, I… how do I put this? The first track each week is great! The rest… not so much. Would love to hear an hour FMU show of just the first-track styles every week.

Too much Christian reggae. Too much adult contemporary reggae. Too much sappy schmaltzy stuff.

What were those big plastic Eastern European (I believe) cameras that had light leakage so the shots all came out kinda ghostly?

Kamasi is great. And if all he's doing is keeping the Pharoah Sanders style and tradition alive, that's enough. But I think he goes beyond that.

I saw Kamasi last year in downtown LA, and I think it is great that he has found an audience for a large jazz band featuring group improvisation... so I don't want to diss him, but yeah, it sounds like a shadow of pharoh sanders and the avant garde to me...

It’s not like I dislike it. I guess that I just read a lot of stuff about how revolutionary The Epic was supposed to be and I just didn’t hear it. On the other hand, if he gets anybody new listening to jazz, I’m all for it.

I agree Ike – well said. I’m not a gigantic fan of what I feel is a bit an over-emphasis emphasis on Christian reggae, and DJ Sarge does air some kind of sappy schmaltzy stuff too, as you mention. I find it a bit tough as well. I do like it though when true roots-reggae is played, which happens frequently.

The goal, though, was to fill the playlist void so I’m very happy to do that. Thanks for commenting.
