Go set a watchman is the superior book, Lee had to agree to the edits that went into “to kill a mockingbird” so that white audiences had a purely heroic figure they could identify with in atticus finch

There’s a lingering feeling that meaningful culture HAS to be shaped by an upper middle class patriarch/paternalist, be that tony wilson, Malcolm McClaren or the author of energy flash and retromania

There’s the whole “is paternalism patriarchy?” argument too- the idea that creativity was only fostered by people on the dole and the educational remit of television, the idea that people can’t develop critical faculties without a “benevolently” patriarchal paternalism.

The more I think about this the more it works- I think that to understand quantum wave mechanics you probably need empathy and compassion

Yes- the joke was more me slightly mocking myself for still thinking that he’s in any way fringe

I think we can all agree that it would be much easier to understand quantum mechanics if Stacey Dooley interviewed one or more of the fundamental particles of matter:-

I’m wondering if the “no fuck that” contingent you and I belong to are more niche than we think. I was listening to a louis Theroux audiobook where he talks about listening to a joe rogan podcast like that’s a normal thing to do..

Kraftwerk taught us to save money on expensive drum machines by recording yourself saying
“Boing! Boom - Tschk!
Boing! Boom - Tshck!” on a loop.

As I mentioned in the Kayla interview on BMTatR, I've rarely been happier DJing than this moment when I got to warm up for Alex Paterson in the foyer of the Cube Cinema in Bristol. Can you IMAGINE?

Whatever his hypnotherapy background, at least Polanski recognises the seriousness of the moment. Goodall seems to be clinging to a long dead British sense of fair play-which ultimately ends up appeasing and empowering fascists.

I saw a ridiculously hectoring interview that the news agents’ lewis goodall gave to zac Polanski. He took issue with Polanski calling Farage a fascist calling it ridiculous.

You get the feeling that the highlight of Goodall’s life to date was being asked to do the register by his form tutor.

This is important OK. You should read these conversations.
And where the stuff lives is interesting - there was a point where it felt like some of that stuff was verging into quite dry territory, just for some of those acts the gigs would be in art galleries, concrete spaces, whatever, and therefore it was pulling away from the rave a bit and stuff. But at the same time, people listen to this music for pleasure. And it IS pleasurable to the senses, even hedonistic. It's not just cerebral, right? Yeah, I do think that people do make that... divide? Just like they distinguish between, I think music for clubs, electronic music for clubs, and electronic music for... well, soundtracks is the other thing that I get a lot like, "Oh, your music would work well as a soundtrack" and you think, hmm, well OK. Or gallery - definitely someone might say that. But you think, well that's weird, isn't it? Because like you say, it isn't just that. People listen to it to enjoy it. And it's not necessarily doesn't need to be accompanied by film or be in a specific space, like... but I wonder if it's just someone's point of reference, like they haven't quite understood that you could just listen to that, and people really do just listen to that as it is. And maybe that's just the thing that will happen over time with someone. I don't know. But yeah, I do, I do find that slightly strange. There used to be a comment I got a lot actually at universitiy that, "Well, where's your stuff gonna sit? It's not gonna work in a nightclub like main room, so is it going to be a B room thing? If so, it needs to be more like X, Y and Z. Or actually, is it just a gallery thing thing? What the hell! Like, can I not just make music? So I did, I just did it anyway. And you know, I have played in the Tate which was cool. But also I have played at the 02 Academy in Leeds, which was also cool. So it's like... it's fine. Colour portrait of Kayla Painter with BASS, MIDS, TOPS "stickers" Yeah, I think we just haven't even got the rulesets. Us critics don't have the rules. There's a lot of people very stuck in the second half of the 20th century where it revolved around club music, punk, indie music, you know, these well-defined things that sort of circled around a particular point in time as well. Artists were defined around those poles, and if they weren't one thing then they were "maverick" , whereas obviously, ever since - well, I kind of pinned it down to Napster arriving in 1999, that was the meltdown point - since that, all of that is dissolved into flux because people have access to so much at once, so you can't get everyone making the same choices at the same time. Maybe it's impossible. Maybe we can't come up with categories again. Maybe everyone is maverick now, heh. Well, yeah, well, that's what Ambient Owl Core I is about, isn't it? It's just like, look, there's no genres or there's five million genres. It doesn't matter. Like, you can't... you can't... there's so much now because of the internet and what we're able to do with accessible production - and music IS accessible, which is great in terms of making it and listening to it. So that kind of idea of rock and pop, classical jazz, whatever, with boundaries, you know, is it's just changed so much, isn't it? And it's... you get these niche, niche, niche genres. And it's like, perhaps we don't have the language for it, so we create it. And then it... I don't know, it is funny that we do need the rest of I guess the rest of the industry to catch up or the rest of the society to catch up with that. But but it's so fast changing, it's almost impossible.

Herzog already working on the sequel “Marx, Landed gentry and royalty- my dome-headed twin.”

In this film, Prince William reads out Yanis Varoufakis’ Marxist critiques of capitalism- and Varoufakis reads out William’s future plans for a slimmed-down future monarchy.

Herzog has a new 8 hour film out soon called “Human, Penis?.

In this bleak monochrome masterpiece, Varoufakis stands in the sea on a wintry windswept beach, wearing a suit - and telling the story of his time as Greek’s finance minister- and his time in Syriza as the tide slowly rises to his chin.

Oxford PPE is the diagnostic criteria for psychopathy

If the government really wants to scrap degrees which deliver no value to the UK and indeed have led to £ billions in damage to the economy and culture of the UK then it just needs to scrap the Oxford PPE degree and arrest everyone who has taken it.

I mean you could argue that Chappell Roan’s “Good luck babe” is lesbian erasure, it sounds like something that would fit on “the innocents“, maybe after “Phantom bride” and before “Chains of love.”
