Whatever Happened…? llos Angeles 6ttmes I Pop Reviews Thomas Doi by Gives His Invigorating Mix a Bite ou could tell he's a Serious Techno-Freak because he brought his own sound sys- Ytem to the Roxy. You could tell he's a Certified New Wave Hitmaker because he received a self-serving on-stage introduction from KROQ deejay Richard Blade. And you - could tell he's an Arty Eccentric because he walked on stage in a top hat and tiny '60s-style sunglasses, looking like a rock 'n' roll Mad Hatter. But you couldn't tell just how adept Thomas Dolby has become at juggling his roles, personas and styles until he started playing music Wednesday at the Roxy. With his current band, the Lost Toy People, the Los Angeles-based Englishman has whipped up an invigorating mixture that finds him part the synth-pop whiz, part the more atmospheric experimentalist and part a brash, tongue-in-cheek funkster. Crucially, the latter took prece- dence for most of the show. Always an impressive technician, in the past Dolby sometimes became so quirky and self-consciously clever that he was downright annoying. But with a tough, funk-based rhythm section behind him, his music now has real authority and bite to go along with the playful mannerisms and satiric jibes. Dolby concentrated on the manic pop-funk of his recent "Aliens Ate My Buick" album. But he also played a fair sampling of his older material, ranging from such up- tempo hits as "Europa and the. Pirate Twins" to his haunting ver- sion of Dan Hicks' "I Scare Myself,". which led into a terrific closing segment. Here the grooves got harder, the performance more spirited, with the only drawback being that the tough, sassy assurance of new songs like "Hot Sauce" and "Air- head" made the set-closing "Hy- peractive" sound cluttered, frenet-· ic and . well, hyperactive. But maybe that's the point-and after all, it's not a bad dilemma to have new songs so good they make your "classics" pale by comparison. -STEVE POND Paris' Ghetto Blaster -Hooked on a Fela he Afro-French octet Ghetto TBlaster probably didn't need a lengthy post-set skull session to pinpoint the high spot of its local _deb .at.the la ing C lossus dub arresaa1 v-.~~~~~~~~~~ When Ben Sourisse kicked off "Na Waya" with a circular key- board riff, the band locked into a smoking performance that recalled the mid-'70s prime of Nigerian musical demigod Fela Anikulapo- Kuti. The proof was on the dance floor, where the intensity level among the sparse but enthusiastic crowd escalated dramatically from the polite swaying that had greeted the group's first songs. And the only time Ghetto Blaster seemed fully relaxed on stage came when the the group returned to a Kuti- influenced sound on "New Genera- tion." The band had just flown in from Paris and performed without a sound check, and bassist Willy N'For's had lost his voice-all of which might have contributed to the hit-and-miss nature of the generous, two-hour performance. The weak vocals lacked confidence and were all but swamped in the sound. Ghetto Blaster, formed in Nige- ria in 1982 and later transplanted to Paris, is a second-generation Afri- can-music band that adds contem- porary twists to traditional African pop styles. It was those modern touches-sparkling horn lines, forceful percussion and thrilling dynamic punctuations-that pro- vided the sparks Wednesday. But the group's Pan-African grab bag of styles-brightly tex- tured high-life, straight funk, an African-inflected blues boogie, the excursions into Fela territory- ultimately masked Ghetto Blaster's own identity. Still, there were enough promising elements in the band's performance to merit an- other listen under less adverse conditions. -DON SNOWDEN STAGE BEAT Continued from Page JO Ooh-la-la?

    through FILMS 70 years of European History through films is a product in Erasmus+ project „70 years of European History 1945-2015”. It was prepared by the teachers and students involved in the project – from: Greece, Czech Republic, Italy, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Spain, Turkey. It’ll be a teaching aid and the source of information about the recent European history. A DANGEROUS METHOD (2011) Director: David Cronenberg Writers: Christopher Hampton, Christopher Hampton Stars: Michael Fassbender, Keira Knightley, Viggo Mortensen Country: UK | GE | Canada | CH Genres: Biography | Drama | Romance | Thriller Trailer In the early twentieth century, Zurich-based Carl Jung is a follower in the new theories of psychoanalysis of Vienna-based Sigmund Freud, who states that all psychological problems are rooted in sex. Jung uses those theories for the first time as part of his treatment of Sabina Spielrein, a young Russian woman bro- ught to his care. She is obviously troubled despite her assertions that she is not crazy. Jung is able to uncover the reasons for Sa- bina’s psychological problems, she who is an aspiring physician herself. In this latter role, Jung employs her to work in his own research, which often includes him and his wife Emma as test subjects. Jung is eventually able to meet Freud himself, they, ba- sed on their enthusiasm, who develop a friendship driven by the- ir lengthy philosophical discussions on psychoanalysis. Actions by Jung based on his discussions with another patient, a fellow psychoanalyst named Otto Gross, lead to fundamental chan- ges in Jung’s relationships with Freud, Sabina and Emma.

Without these documents, the best investigative reporting in the world could not have produced a book, and the secrets of CIA mind-control work would have remained buried forever, as the men who knew them had always intended. From the documentary base, I was able to expand my knowledge through interviews and readings in the behavioral sciences. Neverthe- less, the final result is not the whole story of the CIA's attack on the mind. Only a few insiders could have written that, and they choose to remain silent. I have done the best I can to make the book as accurate as possible, but I have been hampered by the refusal of most of the principal characters to be interviewed and by the CIA's destruction in 1973 of many of the key docu- ments.
