I play music that is old and that is new. Some of it is digital while some is analog. It is from many different countries; sometimes it is loud and at other times it is quiet.

I did a project 25 years ago which involved using Hangul - and I love Korean food so I've seen a lot of menus - but I forgot it all!

It was for an exhibit at the Taejon Science Expo '93, in the renamed Daejon Korea. jdpecon.com/expo/wftaejon1993.html
Avatar 12:14pm
Mayuko:

As far as I could tell from the Japanese subtitle in the music video for that Korean song, my impression of the lyrics was like it was illustrating an everyday life and the world breaking apart a little by little, in a subtle way even without knowing - it was rather movie-like, with small sketches of family etc, I guess not surprising since Lang Lee is also a film maker.

I didn't know there is a "google arts and culture"
Avatar Swag For Life Member 12:34pm
fred:

@Mayuko: Theirs are not typical theater performances though. This week's had a western setting with cowboys drinking, playing, fighting (with video game sound effects) while talking about depression, divorce, specism, and Thoreau. And that was only the first part
  12:34pm
rbrt:

really into these masks
Avatar Swag For Life Member 12:36pm

"google arts and culture" sounds vaguely ominous to me
Also, that Harry Bertoia track is great
  12:38pm

yeah fred unfortunately I kind of don't like the sound of it either, but it is nicely done

@Henry oh wow! are you allowed play his sound sculptures there or just to see?

@fred that description of the show sounds good to me!

@rbrt I thought it was funny too but when it happened it was not very funny, the record company couldn't even release it I think. Only officially came out in 21st century it seemed.

As a contrast to the Khmer Rouge LP title, this is the chorus from Smile by K'Naan.

(Smile) When you're struggllin' (Smile) When you're in jail
(Smile) When you dead broke (Smile) And the rent's due
(Smile) You ain't got friends now (Smile) And no one knows you
Never let 'em see you down, smile while you bleedin'

It's soon marathon time already, indeed! Speaking of raga, one of my co-hosts this year is scheduled to be the raga-fest master Bryce, though I'll see if that'll be confirmed. It'll be fun!

Hi, @mauri, just in from the garden. Well, we adapted some of the old coureur-de-bois songs, paddling songs of the French explorers and traders who traveled west, west, and more west, wherever the waters went ( or came from.) Rugged bunch, like Vikings in a way, I guess.
