  • TREE of CLUES: a Packet for Popheads
    TREE OF CLUES: a packet for popheads Written by Kevin Kodama 1. In one song by this artist, a background clicking noise slows down as she sings “I found another way / To caress my day”. One of this artist’s videos is a single shot of her as both a giant goddess and tiny dancers that slowly zooms out. A track by this artist that she described as “a medieval march through the destruction of a relationship” laments “I never thought that you would be the one to tie me down”. This artist asks “Why don’t I do it for you” in a video that showcases her pole-dancing skills, and she explained a part of her name as “a selection of letters that sounded... masculine and strong”. For ten points, name this artist who released “Cellophane” for her 2019 album MAGDALENE. ​ ​ ANSWER: FKA twigs (accept Taliah Debrett Barnett) ​ ​ ​ ​ 2. This song’s heavily ad-libbed bridge includes the James Brown-inspired lyric “Good God! I can’t help it!”. In the music video for this song, the artist crawls on the ground sporting white polka dotted lipstick. This song begins with a series of tongue clicking and a breathy “yeah” along with some funky guitars. The video for this song uses pink, purple, and blue lighting in a scene where the artist runs between a male flirt and Tessa Thompson. This song’s artist describes herself as “an emotional sexual bender”, which is a nod to her pansexuality. For ten points, name this top r/popheads track of 2018, a Janelle Monae song that was the lead single for the album Dirty Computer.

  • Grimes Partners with Wetransfer to Activate the Creative Community with Collaborative Art Project
    ⏲ 01 April 2020, 11:55 (CEST) Grimes partners with WeTransfer to activate the creative community with collaborative art project Musician, Grimes, shares raw files of her new single to inspire creators to make their own videos. UNDER EMBARGO UNTIL 11am PT / 6pm GMT / 7pm CET (Los Angeles, CA - April 1, 2020 - 11am PT) Today, Grimes released the video for “You’ll Miss Me When I’m Not Around”, a track from her latest album, MISS ANTHROPOCENE, which was released last month. Grimes has announced an open call to creatives in isolation to create their own version of her music video, in collaboration with WeTransfer to distribute her raw video files. Grimes grew up on bootleg sampling and DIY creation and considers it a vital part of exploring personal style and creativity. She shares her new video in front of a green screen, encouraging creators to generate their own videos, as part of a collective art project, using the raw files and audio stems she is making available to all. Grimes shares, “Because we’re all in lockdown we thought if people are bored and wanna learn new things, we could release the raw components of a music video for anyone who wants to try making stuff using our footage." WeTransfer’s Head of Music, Tiff Yu adds, “Grimes has always been a fan of collaboration and open source creativity. This project is a great opportunity to let your mind run wild and free, within any creative field. With no limitations, timing or restrictions, she’s made a project for where creatives can be truly creative, without worrying about any red tape or timing.” WeTransfer is embedded within the creative industries and is helping Grimes activate the creative community through their audience.

  • Psaudio Copper
    Issue 107 MARCH 23RD, 2020 Cover: violinist Jascha Heifetz (1901 - 1987). Many consider him to be the greatest violinist ever. He was one of the most influential performing artists of all time and in his later years became a teacher and an advocate of causes he believed in, including clean air and the establishment of 911 as an emergency phone number. Stay safe. Be careful out there. Maintain social distancing. Wash your hands frequently. Familiar phrases in these tough times. To those I’d add: listen to music. Read a book or magazine. Watch a movie. Play your instrument. Surf the web. Don’t let the endless barrage of TV news make you crazy. Ignore (except to debunk) misinformation on Facebook and social media. Call or video chat with a family member, friend or loved one. Though we may be temporarily separated, we’re all in this together and we’ll help each other stay strong. In this issue: Anne E. Johnson gives us incisive looks into two of the modern era’s greatest artists: Frank Sinatra and the Kinks! John Seetoo contributes his CanJam NYC 2020 Part Two report. J.I. Agnew continues his series on linearity in audio, with clear explanations of this technical topic. Tom Gibbs gives unrestrained opinions on Brandy Clark, King Crimson, Charlie Parker and Tame Impala. Professor Larry Schenbeck enthuses about Sanctuary Road, a new oratorio. Dan Schwartz asks: why don’t musicians use audiophile speakers? Veteran broadcaster Bob Wood shakes his head over the state of today’s commercial radio. Wayne Robins provides a step by step operating manual for Miss Anthropocene by Grimes.

Clarence Darrow CONTENTS Page Realism in Literature and Art .............................. 3 Robert Burns ............................................................ 26 George Burman Foster ............................................ 47 . Some Paragraphs Addressed to Socialists........ 55 I i. REALISM IN LITERATURE AND ART Ifan is nature's last and most perfect work, but, however high his development or great his achievements, he is yet a child of the earth and the rude forces that have formed all the life that exists thereon. He cannot separate himself from the environment that gave him birth, and a thousand ties of nature bind him back to the loqg forgotten past and prove his kinship to all the lower forms of life that have sprung from that great universal mother, Earth. As there is a common law of being, which controls all living things, from the aimless mo- tions of the mollusk in the sea to the most per- fect conduct of the best developed man, so all the activities of human life, from the move- ments of the savage digging roots, to the w0r.k of the greatest artist with his brush, are con- trolled by universal law, and are good or bad, perfect or imperfect, as they conform to the highest condition nature has imposed. The early savage dwelt in caves and cliffs and spent his life in seeking food and provid- ing a rude shelter from the cold. He loolred upon the earth, the sun, the sea, the sky, the mountain peak, the forest and the plain, and all he saw and heard formed an impression on his brain and aided in his growth.
