  • Ecoanic Meditation [Black/White Box/Cube]
    83 Ecoanic meditation [Black/White Box/Cube] Peter Mahr I’ll sleep in this place with the lonely crowd; Lie in the dark where the shadows run from themselves. Bruce/Brown 1968 Since 1900, the relation of science and art has continuously been sub- ject to diverse investigation in artists’ work and from the artist’s point of view. This is true of the entire spectrum of the sciences: psychology, psychoanalysis, logic, phenomenology, psychopathology, anthropology, linguistics, mathematics, economics, sociology, art history, film studies, and the study of literature. Foster and his colleagues demonstrated as much in their survey on the 20th century. The natural sciences have also been granted the status they are due. Recalled is the concept of entropy, for example, and the way that it played a role during the 1960s in post- minimalist art as well as in semiotic aesthetics. It was Umberto Eco who interpreted entropy in his aesthetics based on the theory of information, and thus responded to the philosophical quest for a rich theory of art as the epitome of the arts. As Eco states at the beginning of his central chapter “Openness, Information, Com- munication” in the first, 1962 edition1 of his key aesthetic work ”Opera aperta”, the work of art is determined by the viewer’s contributive recep- tion and material reconstruction. Yet the starting point of this theory of aesthetic activity remains information. According to Shannon – to whom Eco refers primarily – the process- ing of messages runs from the source, via the transmitter, the signal sent, the channel with possible interfering noise, to the signal received, receiving apparatus and finally to the destination/receiver.

    March27 May 2001 2005 Getting the Band Back Together Appeared in - The Adelaide Review Cream Royal Albert Hall, London 5 May When it was first announced in the English press that the 1960s cult group Cream was reforming for four nights at the Royal Albert Hall there was an outpouring, you might say, of dairy metaphors. Would they be as fresh as they were thirty seven years ago? Would the old enmities between mem- bers sour the occasion? Would they blend, or remain somehow colloidal? Would they prove to be long life, or go to powder? Word of the reunion first came from the guitarist, Eric Clapton, when he blurted the news on Radio 2 back in December last year, and, when tickets went on sale in March, all four concerts sold out in a matter of hours. Since then, rumours have been rife of tickets on e-Bay going for upwards of two thousand quid. On the night I attended there were dozens of scalpers briskly pacing the circumference of the Albert Hall looking to buy, sell and trade the hottest ticket in London. There are many reasons why a Cream reunion should be such an event. Hailed as the first supergroup - meaning, the players came from already successful bands - Cream, modestly named by Clapton to indicate their calibre, were, in 1966, something completely different. Their first album, Fresh Cream, with a cover depicting the band in aviator leathers while the title graphics formed a white psychedelic droplet in the right hand corner, suggested a new hybrid - musicians with peerless blues credentials (Alexis Korner, John Mayall, Graham Bond’s Organisation) were also pick- ing up signals from the acid rock scene in the American West.

  • Classic Rock in the Year of Revolt: Using the Illusion of Life to Examine the Hits of 1968
    IAFOR Journal of Arts & Humanities Volume 5 – Issue 2 – Autumn 2018 Classic Rock in the Year of Revolt: Using the Illusion of Life to Examine the Hits of 1968 Thomas G. Endres, University of Northern Colorado, USA Keynote Presentation at the European Conference on Media, Communication & Film 2018 July 9, 2018 Unabridged version Abstract This is not the first generation facing a fearful future. Exactly fifty years ago, 1968 – nestled between the Summer of Love (’67) and Woodstock (’69) - was known as the year of revolt. From Vietnam protests and Civil Rights marches, to the assassinations of Robert Kennedy and Martin Luther King, American culture, like that of countries around the world, was awash in struggle yet alive in activist ideology. In particular, Classic Rock of the era served as a reflection of the times, a call to action, and eventually offered enduring insight into the qualities of effective protest music. Using Sellnow’s Illusion of Life methodology, which examines music as rhetoric, this essay analyses the top ten hits of that year (per http://ultimateclassicrock.com), including such timeless masterpieces as Joplin’s “Piece of my Heart,” Cream’s “White Room,” Hendrix’s “All Along the Watchtower,” and the Rolling Stones’ “Sympathy for the Devil.” The humanistic methodology begins by identifying first the patterns found in the songs’ virtual time (music) and virtual experience (lyrics). Analysis then delves into the use of strategies such as congruity and incongruity to get across meaning. Interpretations are offered on the impact such works had on their original generation, and concludes with applications for today.

  • SAIICHI SUGIYAMA BAND EPK (Oct 2015)
    SAIICHI SUGIYAMA BAND EPK (Oct 2015) Saiichi Sugiyama Band is a 4-piece rhythm and blues band hailing from Surrey/London, formed in 2010 by the guitarist/composer Saiichi Sugiyama, who has a career spanning 25 years as a solo artist in the British blues scene. The current line up features Rietta Austin (lead vocals), Ben Reed (bass guitar) and Mune Sugiyama (drums). Having released the studio live album “the Smokehouse Sessions” in January 2014, the group has spent the past 18 months working on their new studio album in various recording studios, lovingly crafting broad church rhythm and blues tracks drawing from wider range of influences of CSN&Y, Ann Peebles, Aretha, Motown Funk Brothers, Dave Mason, Carole King, Debussy, Chuck Berry, George Harrison and more with the passion and flare of British blues groups such as Blues Breakers, Cream and Free. Having already been met with critical acclaim from greats such as Free’s Andy Fraser and the Cream lyricist Pete Brown, the both of whom were involved in production of the forthcoming album, it seems things can only get better for Saiichi Sugiyama Band with the new release.
