When Things Fall Apart Not Causing Harm June 14, 2020 When Things Fall Apart Not Causing Harm June 14, 2020 540 S. Commonwealth Avenue, Los Angeles, California 90020 Telephone 213.385.1341 – www.FCCLA.org The Gathering of the People First Congregational Church of Los Angeles is a safe place for all people, and we celebrate our diversity of race, creed, gender, religion, cultural background, sexual orientation, gender identities and expressions...We extend a warm welcome to all this morning and especially those who are worshiping with us for the first time. Your presence both enriches us and this time of celebration together ~ Prelude on the Great Organs of First Church Dr. Christoph Bull, Organist-in-Residence When Bach met Kraftwerk: Autobahn-Toccata (Johann Sebastian Bach, Ralf Hütter, Florian Schneider, Emil Schult; arr. C. Bull) Fugue in F Major, BWV 540/2 (Johann Sebastian Bach) What’s Going On (Al Cleveland, Renaldo Benson, Marvin Gaye) Over The Rainbow (Harold Arlen, E.Y. Harburg; arr. C. Bull) Words of Welcome Rev. Laura Vail Fregin Chiming of the Hour Words of Gathering Rev. Michael Lehman It is into a world of wonder that we tumble as we make that first gasping grasp for life. Our separation from whatever beauty came before is as certain as our separation from the one who, with a final push, sent us out into this world. We cannot remember the pools of life from which we came. We cannot imagine the whirling mists into which we shall all go. Yet we journey on, yearning to make whole our experience of life, so that the mysteries that it holds might unfold for us, and we might know what Holy, truly means. Blessed be the break of day. Blessed be the journey. Blessed be the Spirit of Life around us, among us, and within us. May it be so, O God. May it be so for us! Gathering Hymn “We Sing Your Mighty Power, O God” ELLACOMBE Prayer of Awareness Rev. Fregin O God, for your love for us, warm and brooding, which has brought us to birth and opened our eyes to the wonder and beauty of creation, we give you thanks. For your love for us, wild and freeing, which has awakened us to the energy of creation: to the sap that flows, the blood that pulses, the heart that sings, we give you thanks. Holy One, on this day, we celebrate that your Spirit of Life is present deep within us, and at the heart of all life. Forgive us when we forget your gift of love made known to us in Jesus, whose Way draws us evermore into your presence. Amen. [adapt/IonaCommunity] Introit “Dove Descending Breaks The Air” IGOR STRAVINKSY LAUDE, DR. DAVID HARRIS, DIRECTOR “The dove descending breaks the air With flame of incandescent terror Of which the tongues declare The one discharge from sin and error. The only hope, or else despair Lies in the choice of pyre or pyre To be redeemed from fire by fire. Who, then, devised the torment? Love. Love is the unfamiliar name Behind the hands that wove The intolerable shirt of flame Which human power cannot remove. We only live, only suspire, Consumed by either fire or fire.” ~T.S. Eliot The Lord’s Prayer Raúl Rojas You are invited to pray the traditional words or to use the inclusive text below: Our God…who art in heaven, hallowed be thy Name, thy kingdom come, thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, forever. Amen. Gloria Patri Glory be to God, and to the Christ, and to the Holy Ghost. As it was in the beginning, is now and ever shall be. World without end, Amen, Amen Blessing of the Children Rev. Hoeger Prayers with the People Rev. Michael Lehman Invitation to Prayer Silence Prayer of Confession Gracious, Loving God, we open our hearts to you. We confess there have been times when we have turned away from you. There have been times when we have hurt and rejected our neighbors. Sometimes it has been difficult to love and accept ourselves. Forgive us for the systemic oppression we have allowed to be part of our culture – racism, sexism, homophobia, and economic elitism. Give us the courage to stand up for the dignity and rights of all our siblings. Make us willing, O God, to live our lives in response to your call to love all your children as you have loved us. Words of Assurance The Holy One, helps us find the courage to let go of our fears, accept the challenges before us as we open ourselves to the still, small voice - we know to be grounded in holiness. May this truth help our souls to be filled with the awe of who we are called to be, as we give thanks for the one who is the light of God’s love and the one who is always calling us home. Meditation Anthem “The Road Home” STEPHEN PAULUS GMCLA’S AFTERSHOCK, ERNEST HARRISON, DIRECTOR LUCIO MARAMBA AND ED CARLO ARAFILES, AV TEAM Aftershock is the a capella ensemble of the Gay Men’s Chorus of Los Angeles. First Church is proud to serve as the rehearsal home of GMCLA and a host of other richly diverse musical groups from across Los Angeles. The Reading from the Hebrew Bible Will Green Paraphrased from Exodus 1&2 Sermon “When Things Fall Apart: Not Causing Harm” Rev. Hoeger Invitation to Offering Rev. Fregin This morning we have gathered together, turned our hearts to praise, willed that we might be moved to live out the wholeness of love in this broken world. We have seen the places in this world where the living of that wholeness is so needed. But we cannot stop there. We cannot pretend that to gather, be moved, notice pain and injustice is anywhere near enough. Together, we must push ourselves further – push to know the completeness of love in our own lives, push to recognize what it means, push to work miracles in its name. Even though we have a long way to go, this is a space where the miracles are working as we continue to open our hearts to the pain, and the possibilities, of this our sacred time and place. We invite you to join us in the work, by giving from your talents, gifts, resources, and your continued presence. Offertory Anthem “True Colors” STEINBERG & KELLY RA’ED SAADE, SOLOIST Doxology Praise God from whom all blessings flow; Praise God, all creatures here below; Praise God above, ye heavenly host; Praise Father, Son, and Holy Ghost. Amen. Offering Prayer Rev. Fregin Spirit of Openness and Affirmation, we dedicate these gifts to the ministry of love and acceptance in the world. May we ever seek to use all of our resources to create a world, and a church - where all are welcome and honored, loved and fully known. This we pray as we follow the One whose welcome and love, still shows us the way. Amen. Passing of the Peace Rev. Lehman In this place… We believe in the precious nature of each individual. Peace to the people who respect their challenging and devoted neighbors. We believe in Justice for all people. Peace to the people who support the right for people to be accepted, and celebrated, for who they are. We believe in the acceptance of our siblings of whatever sexual orientation and gender identities. Peace to the people who speak out against persecution, bullying, verbal, and physical abuse of individuals and groups of people. We believe in an Inclusive Church. Peace to the people who, with their love and desire for wholeness of humankind, create communities and churches where we are all enabled to worship in the spirit of diversity, honesty, and love. [adapt/gduncan/England] This morning, may the peace of God, and the peace of this place of this place, be with you. And also with you! Words for the Journey Rev. Hoeger In Christ we experience our wholeness, we are God’s beloved creation. As you have received God’s grace, go now and dare to reach out to others, to help others reconcile and make new. And the presence of God, who is our Creator, Christ, and Sustainer, will go with you. [adapt/kturney] May it be so. May it be so for us! Choral Benediction Response “Amen” KELLY MCCANDLESS LAUDE Hymn for the Journey “Rejoicing, Reclaiming, Our Life-Giving Call” FOUNDATION Organ Postlude Autobahn-Toccata - Elektrische Reprise JOHANN SEBASTIAN BACH, RALF DR. BULL HÜTTER, FLORIAN SCHNEIDER, EMIL SCHULT; ARR. C. BULL Inside the Music “I’ve always been drawn to Stravinsky’s “Dove Descending”, set to Eliot’s powerful poetry. The poem speaks of peace via the metaphor of the dove carving a clear line of choice for humanity. Both will consume us. Whether we choose to love or live outside of love, we will be taken over, the choice is ours to hang back and be consumed by terror, or move forward into love that will take us over for love’s sake. Stravinsky, who famously spoke about artistic freedom stating that “my freedom will be so much the greater and more meaningful the more narrowly I limit my field of action,” chose one of the more confining modes of composition to convey Eliot’s message by writing a twelve-tone composition.

  • Dai Kraftwerk All'arte Contemporanea: Emil Schult L' “Andy Warhol Tedesco” a Palazzo Ducale
    1 Dai Kraftwerk all’arte contemporanea: Emil Schult l’ “Andy Warhol tedesco” a Palazzo Ducale di Redazione 17 Luglio 2018 – 17:03 Genova. Uno dei padri fondatori della musica elettronica, e artista multimediale, Emil Schult, componente dei celebri Kraftwerk, sarà venerdì 20 luglio a palazzo Ducale, nella sala del Munizioniere, per presentare la sua performace Transhuman Art Critics con Emma Nilsson. L’appuntamento è alle 19e30. Transhuman Art Critics, già presentato in città come Berlino, Düsseldorf, Hagen, ad eventi come il Reading Fringe Festival (UK) e persino in Cina, è una prima assoluta in Italia. Esplora l’evoluzione della musica elettronica fino a fonderla in un percorso che unisce reperti archeologici e arte digitale. L’evento è a cura di Virginia Monteverde e Paolo Tarsi e organizzato da ART Commission Events e Anitya Records, in collaborazione con Goethe- Institut Genua, Acanto Publishing, Farmhouse Studio e Ventura Edizioni. Emil Schult (1946) è un artista visivo, poeta e musicista, il cui lavoro spazia da opere nello spirito di Fluxus fino a testi e copertine di dischi che hanno cambiato la storia del pop. Durante i suoi studi all’Accademia d’Arte di Düsseldorf si forma con Dieter Roth, Joseph Beuys e Gerhard Richter, personalità di grande rilievo che hanno sostenuto l’approccio poetico di Schult alle arti. Negli anni Settanta costruisce strumenti elettronici ed entra a far parte dei Kraftwerk, inizialmente come componente effettivo della band, in seguito come membro esterno.

  • An Exhibition Organized by Diedrich Diederichsen & Christopher Müller
    Cosmic Communities: Coming Out Into Outer Space – Homofuturism, Applied Psychedelia & Magic Connectivity an exhibition organized by Diedrich Diederichsen & Christopher Müller feat. Marcus Behmer, Stefan George, Rainer Werner Fassbinder, Hans Henny Jahnn, Lutz Bacher, Hans Kayser, Ludwig Gosewitz, Jordan Belson, Hapshash and the Coloured Coat, The Fool, Rogério Duarte, The Red Krayola/Mayo Thompson, Walter de Maria, Sigmar Polke, Emil Schult, Isaac Abrams, John McCracken, Pedro Bell, Kai Althoff, Henrik Olesen, Öyvind Fahlström, Karlheinz Stockhausen, Sun Ra, Hartmut Geerken, Albert Oehlen, Jack Goldstein, Jutta Koether, Isa Genzken, Palermo, John Coltrane, Tony Conrad 2 November 2017 – 13 January 2018 In General This exhibition looks at a constellation of historical phenomena that branched out and evolved in various directions. Artists who formulated strong, almost violent, and widely impactful and inspired claims, and who in this sense still bore out the myth of the artist hero, but did so always with the commanding need to form groups, families, or even monastic orders. They sought to change the world through artisanal disciplines, “life reform”-related practices and strict internal rules–yet always in connection with liberating or covertly liberating intentions. We begin with a phenomenon in German literature in the early twentieth century: male collectives, often but not always homosexual but usually homosocial in character, that were interested in aesthetically and often magically based alternative world orders. Among these, we are here primarily addressing the special cases in which the supposed cosmic laws, the musical and mathematical harmonies of planetary orbits, and the numerical ratios that can be found in both nature and music serve as justifications for recasting interpersonal, societal, but also sexual relationships.

This model was expanded upon by musicians in England and Germany during the late-1970s who developed the popular music style called Industrial as a fusion of experimental popular music sounds, performance art theatricality, and avant-garde composition.

  • „Computer Für Das Eigenheim“ „Kraftwerks“ Musikalische Vision Eines Elektronischen Lebensstils (1981)
    „Computer für das Eigenheim“ „Kraftwerks“ musikalische Vision eines elektronischen Lebensstils (1981) Andreas Greger Kraftwerk, Computerwelt, Text und Musik: Karl Bartos, Emil Schult, Ralf Hütter, Florian Schneider (1981). „There is no reason for any individual to have a computer in his home.“ Diese Einschätzung Kenneth H. Olsens, seinerzeit Präsident der Digital Equipment Corporation (lange eine der führenden amerikanischen Computerfirmen), stammt aus dem Jahr 1977. Die gesellschaftliche Vorstellung von Computern war damals eng mit Großrechnern verknüpft, die lediglich durch Spezialisten bedient werden konnten. Dieses Paradigma stellten Spielekonsolen wie „Pong“ von Atari allerdings bereits 1975 in Frage. Andere Branchengrößen wie IBM hatten weiterhin Bedenken, ob die Leistung der Großrechner auf einem Schreib- tisch Platz finden könne. Unternehmen wie Commodore oder Apple bewiesen ab 1977, dass dies möglich war, indem sie kompakte, sofort nach dem Kauf verwendbare Rechner auf den Markt brachten und sich somit an die Spitze Zeithistorische Forschungen/Studies in Contemporary History 9 (2012), S. 340-345 © Vandenhoeck & Ruprecht GmbH & Co. KG, Göttingen 2012 ISSN 1612–6033 „Computer für das Eigenheim“ 341 der Computerhersteller katapultierten. Sie setzten damit eine Entwicklung in Gang, die sich zu Beginn der 1980er-Jahre beschleunigte: IBM definierte mit dem „IBM PC 5150“ ab 1981 einen Standard im Bereich der Heimcomputer. Sony und Philips brachten die Digitalisierung im Audiobereich voran und leg- ten die technischen Spezifikationen für die Compact Disc fest.1 Im Jahr 1979 beschäftigte der Gedanke der Digitalisierung auch vier Düssel- dorfer Musiker, die sich besonders ab Mitte der 1970er-Jahre in eine themati- sche und musikalische Vorreiterposition gebracht hatten. Die Gruppe „Kraft- werk“, die 1970 aus der zwei Jahre zuvor gegründeten Gruppe „Organisation“ hervorgegangen war, hatte zu Beginn der 1970er-Jahre Alben veröffentlicht, die mit konventioneller Instrumentierung wie Schlagzeug, Violine und Flöte einge- spielt waren.

  • ZEBRA #2: „Music As a Carrier of Ideas“ Max Dax in Conversation with Emil Schult I Tourstation at Museum Brandhorst
    ZEBRA #2: „Music as a Carrier of Ideas“ Max Dax in conversation with Emil Schult I Tourstation at Museum Brandhorst Munich, July 8th, 2019 - Painter, poet, musician: Emil Schult combines various forms of artistic expression in his work. Already during his studies at the Düsseldorf Art Academy, various companions and teachers supported Schult's poetic approach to art - even before the student of Joseph Beuys, Gerhard Richter and Dieter Roth joined the Düsseldorf band Kraftwerk at the beginning of the 1970s. Within a decade, with "Autobahn", "Taschenrechner" and "Das Model", he not only wrote some of the central lyrics for the globally influential pop band, but also created groundbreaking conceptual graphic identities with covers for albums such as "Radio-Aktivität" and "Computerwelt". An extensive painterly oeuvre from the past five decades combines the 72-year-old's interest in epochal change with his fascination for nature, science and technology. „It Will Always Continue I Music as a Carrier of Ideas“ (Kaftwerk) On July 16th, Emil Schult will talk to the author and journalist Max Dax (Alert, Spex, Electronic Beats, etc.) in Munich about his cross-medial, collaborative art practice and the significance music holds for his visual work. In the rhythm of media change and appropriation, mutual inspiration, curiosity and interest in the strategies and methods of others, the conversation stops at various stations: from Düsseldorf to the west coast of the USA, from the Bahamas back to the Rhineland. A (sound) track leads to Hamburg. "Emil Schult is a kind of fifth Kraftwerk member, but above all the designer of its groundbreaking album "Autobahn," summarizes Dax, who developed the concept and curated the current exhibition HYPER!
