How did it grow up? Tell me more about your activity there. And how did you face ‘goth’ music? Mary0: Well, I don’t know what to say… I work for the scene here in Slvakia more than 15 years. In the beginning there were the parties, then the fanzine/magazine called Stigma, radio show in the local radio station, concerts and so on. It’s a long time and a lot of work was done inbetween. Nattsol: Tell me more about Batcave.sk. What is it actually? Mary0: Actually it’s more or less just the monthly party including Live acts. However, we’re working on new visual of the webzine at the moment. Well, it’s always a question of time to work on the projects like tis. Especially when one has a family and regular job. Then the priorities change a bit… 3 Nattsol: The next question is just to Mary0. Now, looking back to your past activity as the dj, organizer and other, what were the most important moments? And were there some things that you’d like to change, or some curious situations, may be? Mary0: Well, of course there's always the things to change in the past but you can't do it anyway. So, I rather look forward. I organized some really cool bands and knew really cool people in all those years. I don't wanna say which band was the best one or which people are more friendly or nice. It's because I don't wanna forget anyone. Well, I also played really cool places as a Dj, too. It’s always interesteing to play the different places in the world and see how people react the music I play. Nattsol: So The Last Days of Jesus began to exist in 1992. What was the original conception of the band? What did you want to express for that time? Mary0: Hm, I can’t remember what was the original conception in that time. I know that I was talking something about the war, religions, stupidity, shortblindness and so on. It’s almost the same as today. Only the way of expression is different a bit. In those times I believed the man could be better and the way is to combine half to half the man’s and woman’s aspect. I’m afraid I lost some illusions in time… Nattsol: As I know, you began playing some metal stuff. Can you describe the band’s musical evolution? Fessy: It was caused mainly by our music influences in that time. We listened more Valor´s Christian Death, Superheroines etc. But I think this was fine for our future music skills, we were training so much that time :) Actually we started to play more punky from album Alien Road. Mary0: I don’t think we ever played metal… It’s a bullshit!!! We always experimented a lot. We combined a lot of musical elements like gothic – electro – industrial – punk – ska ‐ and metal at last as well… But I don’t think anyone could mark us as a metal band. Nobody who ever heard our old stuff, I mean ;) Nattsol: What were the breaking points in the band’s life? Vajco: Russian tour. After show in Voronezh I felt for a moment like an Ice Hockey Star – when audience screamed Slo‐va‐kia! (notice: We love ice hockey=we love Russia:o) Fessy: I think there were more important points in our history. First German tour with bands Marquee Moon and Forthcoming Fire in 1995. We were young band with no offcial CD and concerts in Berlin or Dresden opened us the doors towards main German labels. Very important moments were our first gigs at WGT and Bolkow festival as well. Maybe the last breaking point was the conclusion of contract with Strobelight records. Mary0: There were some more breaking points in the band’s life I’m sure. One of them was contract with the EMI in 2001 for example. Then there was the U.S. tour as well… This was not so good experience but important anyway. Nattsol: So, except two last albums, all the band’s releases are sold out. Do you have a plan to re‐release some of the old stuff? Vajco: We planned to re‐release album called “Songs from the Psycho TV”, because this album hadn´t chance to be sent to abroad listeners as other recordings because of contract between us and major label. 4 Nattsol: Now the question about two TLDOJ last works – ‘Alien Road’ and ‘Dead Machines Revolution’. These releases seem related, but there’s the difference as well. In your opinion – what has changed, and what has stayed? Vajco: Stayed: the band. Changed: Recording process. “Dead Machines Revolution” was recording longer than “Alien Road”. We also composed and recorded (both at the same time) for the first time a new song in studio – “Machine of Calm.” Fessy: I suppose the sound of DMR is quite better. There´s not so many sound foots and also songs don´t have so difficult structures in comparison with Alien Road. Nattsol: The next one is about your texts. It seems to me that most of them are about freedom and escape from routine and ‘the life machinery’. So can you say what kind of freedom is it? Is that the real one? And can you call yourself free? Fessy: It´s a difficult question. Your freedom ends where other´s freedom begins. The problem is if this is not in the middle of that way. Telling the truth mostly this is NOT real. But sometimes if I´m far away from people, on my bike in broad country, I feel my self really free :) Mary0: Believe me – if I know the answer on your question I’m the happiest man in the world! Just the simple answers: No, unfortunately, I don’t think I’m free. Every song is different. One is about everyday‘s rouitine at work, some kind of machinery. Then another one is about the stupid so called revolutionaries making the bombs in the streets and killing people. There is a song about the feeling overused man of nowadays. Nattsol: When should we wait for the next album? Vajco: Next long play (LP) album – at the moment no idea, sorry. I hope we can do it. But EP album is already in our minds, we will do something – maybe next year. Mary0: There is a plan to realize the new record in Spring of 2009. We already started the recordings in the studio. Nattsol: Of course, there’s the question about your Russian mini‐tour. :) Tell me your impressions about the shows, public, beer and everything that you want. :) Vajco: For me the most interesting impression – it was really something very special. Public: very open, very close to the band. Beer: good taste, a lot of kinds of beer, at this point much more better than in Slovakia (really). Fessy: Yes, our fans in Russia were amazing! We enjoyed every gig so much and we want return back definitely! Mary0: Every gig was different and special in some way. We really enjoyed our time spend there in Russia. We knew a lot of nice people!!! Hope we could stay there longer and cross the country even more. Nattsol: And your final words. Apart from your music activity, or not. Just what you want to say. Vajco: See you in Russia ;o) Mary0: THANX for the questions and sorry for the delay! Hope to cu soon! Questions: Pall ‘Nattsol’ Zarutskiy “Grave Jibes Fanzine” 5 Interview with Acid Bats http://www.myspace.com/acidbatsmx/ Bars‐Ursula: Tell us, please, where and when your band was formed? How has the collective structure been formed? What made you to play death‐rock? And what is the conception of the group? Acid Bats: Well, we started the band in October of 2007, since the beginning we three composed the band, Edy bat at voice, Gregor at Bass and johnnywitch at guitar. All of us are originally of Mexico City, more exactly from a part of the city which’s called Nezahualcoyotl into the metropolitan zone of Mexico City. Maybe is no important talk about, but it is a marginalized area of Mexico, it’s very difficult to live here, maybe that’s one reason, why we make post punk deathrock music, we have very difficult lives, and we see the world with punk eyes, with deathrockers eyes and with post punk eyes. At the beginning, the idea was play some kind of post punk, but no one of us can deny the influence that we have from the deathrock hehehe(laughter), but we don’t like the etiquettes or being classified in a kind of music, we just want to make music, to develop the darker thoughts of our mind and to denounce the evils of society in a subtle way, we feel really connected one to one for give a message, not only for deathrockers, even to all individuals who seek an alternative thinking, we don’t close ourselves, to the deathrock, we all the days want new concepts to make a good music and make a new good message.

ZONE A: Religion/Family This section of the exhibition features a key work expanding on Ron Athey’s family and religious upbringing as a would-be Pentacostal minister: his 2002 live multimedia performance installation Joyce, which is named after Athey’s mother. It also includes elements from Athey’s archive relating to Joyce—including two costumes from the live performance—and his life within and beyond his fundamentalist origin family (such as unpublished writings from his period of recovery in the 1980s, and the numerous flyers advertising fundamentalist revivals he attended). The section is organized around materials that evoke the mix of religiosity and dysfunctional (sexualized and incestuous) family dynamics Athey experienced as a child and wrote about in some of his autobiographical writings that are included in the catalogue, including Mary Magdalene Footwashing Set (1996), which was included in a group show at Western Project in Los Angeles in 2006 and in the Invisible Exports Gallery “Displaced Person” show in 2012, a former gallery just around the corner from Participant Inc.’s location.

Smith Analysis of current pastoral care practice, particularly of Christian pastoral care providers and chaplains, reveals a contemporary lacuna in Christian theological frameworks which contributes to North American Christians’ inability to connect a theological understanding of death with the experience of their human finitude despite the presence of considerable literature on death and dying. This gap deprives many Christians of the possibility of finding a unique and specific source of hope and strength within their own faith tradition for facing crisis.

  • Edwards and Monnet 2Nd Pages.Indd
    6 “I’ll Be Whatever Gotham Needs Me to Be” Batman, the Gothic and Popular Culture Agnieszka Soltysik Monnet Batman fi rst appeared in 1939, close on the heels of the recently created and hugely successful Superman. The young comic book industry, just emerg- ing as a separate medium from the newspaper comic strip, and hitherto mainly defi ned by men in suits, now demanded more visually appealing (i.e. costumed) characters. Batman was born as a darker and more com- plex variation on the red-caped superhero: he is Superman’s Gothic dou- ble.1 Although many superheroes were created in the 1940s and since then, Batman has remained the darkest and most problematic, not least because his powers come not from a magical source but from the brooding inten- sity of a childhood trauma. Over seventy years later, Batman has grown to become bigger than ever, eclipsing even Superman in recent decades. Why has this been the case? And how did this happen? In addressing these ques- tions, I want to suggest that the main reason for the success of Batman in the twenty-fi rst century—a multi-billion dollar Batman industry—has been Christopher Nolan’s return to the darker roots of the Batman story. Like any enduring Gothic fi gure, Batman’s regenerative cultural power depends on his ambivalence, his ethical complexity and moral ambiguity. On a formal level, this ambivalence plays itself out in the tension between Bat- man’s camp aesthetics and the Gothic characteristics of the fi gure; that is, between the campy smirk of the “Caped Crusader” and the furrowed brow of the brooding “Dark Knight.” Historically, whenever Batman is camped to its limit, the Gothic creeps in, returning the character to a darker and more complicated fi gure within the narrative.
