As part of the retro game roadshow organized by SORG (Southern Oregon Retro Gamers) at the 2019 MCC, thousands (yes thousands) of archaic arcade games will be available to play on gaming systems from: Konami, Hudson Soft, Bandai, SNK, Tradewest, HAL Laboratory and the iconic Tecmo. Play Pong, Pac-Man, Donkey Kong and so many more at the Medford Comic Con on April 27 and 28. “This year’s MCC theme is Fandoms Unite, so having a video game room was a natural addition to the Con,” says co-organizer and Medford Library Branch Manager, Terra McLeod. “I had been wanting something like this for a couple of years.” But where to get such classic games? Enter Kurt Liedtke of SORG, who has continually donated the use of his personal collection to populate the pop-up gaming suite. “My all-time favorite game is Tecmo Super Bowl, circa 1991,” says Liedtke. “It was the first sports game to track player stats throughout a season and included a customizable playbook with real NFL players. The fact that annual Tecmo Super Bowl tournaments are still held shows just how much of a landmark game it was.” A few years back Liedtke found Klamath County Library’s monthly retro game night. As a new member of the community, he generously offered the use of his personal gaming collection. This soon grew to the current roadshow which has become popular not only on the Comic Con circuit, but Oregon’s Tech Con as well. Liedtke explains, “An enormous subculture surrounding retro gaming has grown over the past decade. I believe that part of the popularity

  • T Think I've Forgotten' Director John Pirozzi Talks Cambodian Rock and Roll Film
    'Don't Think I've Forgotten' director John Pirozzi talks Cambodian rock and roll film May 5, 2015 By RAFER GUZMÁN [email protected] John Pirozzi, the filmmaker behind the acclaimed documentary, "Don't Think I've Forgotten," about the lost history of Cambodian rock and roll. Photo Credit: Nick Hahn It wasn't just London that was swinging in the 1960s, according to the new documentary "Don't Think I've Forgotten: Cambodia's Lost Rock and Roll." Directed by John Pirozzi, the film paints a picture of Cambodia's capital, Phnom Penh, as a vibrant city teeming with garage bands and rebellious rockers -- until the Khmer Rouge took over in 1975. In just a few years, the regime wiped out nearly 2 million Cambodians and almost all evidence of the country's once- flourishing music scene. Pirozzi pieced it back together by tracking down old albums, rare footage and surviving musicians; the movie ultimately took him 10 years to make. He'll show it in person Wednesday night at Huntington's Cinema Arts Centre. (It is also playing at Sag Harbor Cinema.) Pirozzi sat last week to discuss his labor of love. How did you discover this music? I'd always been fascinated by modern Cambodian history. I worked as a camera operator on "City of Ghosts," the film Matt Dillon directed about Cambodia, in 2001. I remember shooting a scene with [James] Caan, who was supposed to be singing a Cambodian song, lip-synching. I thought: "What is this weird music?" When I got back here, a friend of mine sent me a compilation, "Cambodian Rocks." When I heard the music, I thought: This is a way to tell the history.

  • Popular Songs, Melodies from the Dead: Moving Beyond Historicism with the Buddhist Ethics and Aesthetics of Pin Peat and Cambodian Hip Hop
    religions Article Popular Songs, Melodies from the Dead: Moving beyond Historicism with the Buddhist Ethics and Aesthetics of Pin Peat and Cambodian Hip Hop Jeffrey Dyer Department of Musicology and Ethnomusicology, Boston University, Boston, MA 02215, USA; [email protected] Received: 1 October 2020; Accepted: 9 November 2020; Published: 22 November 2020 Abstract: This article illustrates how the aesthetics of two types of Cambodian music—pin peat and Cambodian hip hop—enact Cambodian–Buddhist ethics and function as ritual practices through musicians’ recollections of deceased teachers’ musical legacies. Noting how prevalent historicist and secular epistemologies isolate Cambodian and, more broadly, Southeast Asian musical aesthetics from their ethical and ritual functions, I propose that analyses focusing on Buddhist ethics more closely translate the moral, religious, and ontological aspects inherent in playing and listening to Cambodian music. I detail how Cambodian musicians’ widespread practices of quoting deceased teachers’ variations, repurposing old musical styles, and reiterating the melodies and rhythms played by artistic ancestors have the potential to function as Buddhist rituals, whether those aesthetic and stylistic features surface in pin peat songs or in hip hop. Those aesthetic practices entail a modality of being historical that partially connects with but exceeds historicism’s approach to Buddhism, temporality, and history by enacting relations of mutual care that bring the living and dead to be ontologically coeval. Such relational practices bring me to conclude with a brief discussion rethinking what post-genocide remembrance sounds like and feels like. Keywords: popular music; efficacy; musical aesthetics; historicism; Buddhist ethics; ontologies of living–dead relations; post-genocide remembrance 1.

  • Don't Think I've Forgotten: Cambodia's Lost Rock and Roll
    PRESENTS DON’T THINK I’VE FORGOTTEN: CAMBODIA’S LOST ROCK AND ROLL Directed by John Pirozzi, USA/Cambodia, 2014, 106 minutes, In English, Khmer, and French with English Subtitles Bookings & Press: Jim Browne Argot Pictures 646-732-3725 [email protected] DON’T THINK I’VE FORGOTTEN: CAMBODIA’S LOST ROCK AND ROLL Through the eyes, words and songs of its popular music stars of the 50’s, 60’s, and 70’s, DON’T THINK I’VE FORGOTTEN: CAMBODIA’S LOST ROCK AND ROLL examines and unravels Cambodia’s tragic past. Combining interviews with surviving musicians and never-before-seen archival material and rare songs, the film tracks the winding course of Cambodian music as it morphs into a unique style of rock and roll. A vibrant musical culture that was nearly lost forever under the brutal Khmer Rouge regime is revived and celebrated. ABOUT THE FILM: During the 60’s and early 70’s, as the war in Vietnam threatened its borders, a new music scene emerged in Cambodia that took Western rock and roll and stood it on its head – creating a sound like no other. Cambodian musicians crafted this sound from the various rock music styles sweeping America, England, and France, adding the unique melodies and hypnotic rhythms of their traditional mu- sic. The beautiful singing of their renowned female vocalists became the final touch that made this mix so enticing. But as Cambodian society - young creative musicians in particular - embraced western culture and flourished under its influence, the rest of the country was rapidly moving to war.

  • The Sublime Frequencies of New Old Media
    The Sublime Frequencies of New Old Media David Novak A new world of world music was built on Cambodian Rocks. The CD was released on the New York City – based Parallel World label in 1996, and for most listeners, it was hard to find anything else like it. The com- pilation collected tracks from a number of legendary 1960s Phnom Penh bar bands, most of whose members were executed by the Khmer Rouge soon after the recordings were made. Their brief reinventions of garage rock powerfully echo the impact of the US presence in Southeast Asia and the global spread of record- ing and broadcast technologies during this period. On Cambodian Rocks, the Western listener hears the psychedelic sounds of Santana, James Brown, and the Animals anew through the ears of seemingly anonymous Cambodian musicians. The mystery of the music was amplified by the opaque presentation of its ori- gins. The compiler, Paul Wheeler, an American English teacher in Japan who had collected cassettes on a brief tour of Cambodia in 1994, provided no biographi- cal detail for the material, neglecting even track titles or artist names. Although several of these songs are beloved classics for Cambodians, the backgrounds and artistic intentions of the musicians were unknown for Western listeners. For those cognizant of Cambodian folk music styles, the mix of sounds might suggest the continuity of traditional vocal techniques and local song forms beneath the novel rhythms, reverb, and twang of imported rock music. But most North Americans, who heard this music for the first time in the 1990s, were surprised and intrigued I would like to acknowledge the Society of Fellows in the Humanities at Columbia University for support in writing this article.

  • Writing the Postcolonial City: Phnom Penh and Modernity During Sangkum Reastr Niyum, 1955-1970
    Writing the Postcolonial City: Phnom Penh and Modernity during Sangkum Reastr Niyum, 1955-1970 by Siti Galang Keo A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in History in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Peter B. Zinoman, Chair Professor Kerwin Klein Professor Penelope Edwards Summer 2019 Abstract Writing the Postcolonial City: Phnom Penh and Modernity during Sangkum Reastr Niyum, 1955-1970 by Siti Galang Keo Doctor of Philosophy in History University of California, Berkeley Professor Peter B. Zinoman, Chair This dissertation examines novels, essays, films and songs of the Sangkum Reastr Niyum period, 1955-1970, to explore the layers of meanings Cambodians held of Phnom Penh. After the Geneva Accords in 1954, Phnom Penh emerged as the capital city of a newly independent nation-state, the Kingdom of Cambodia. The city under French colonial rule was secondary to Hanoi and Saigon, but once Indochina dissolved, its population exponentially increased. Phnom Penh was at the center of Cambodia’s road networks, its banking system, and was home to the best universities and schools. The many jobs and opportunities attracted rural migrants to the city. The population boom was one of the many ways Phnom Penh transformed. Norodom Sihanouk, then the head of state, made Phnom Penh the epicenter of government modernization projects. Under his watch, the capital transformed from being a marshy, provincial hub into an exciting scene of cosmopolitan innovation. Urban Cambodians combined ideas from Le Corbusier with traditional Khmer architectural details to design their “modern” buildings.
