  • Indie Mixtape 20 Q&A Is with Del Paxton, Who Just Wish That People Would Think Their Band Was from the '90S
    :: View email as a web page :: On Friday, My Morning Jacket finally released The Waterfall II, an album recorded in the mid-2010s. On The Waterfall, My Morning Jacket sounded determined to remind fans of the monolithic jams they made their name with in the ’00s. The sequel, however, carries no such pretenses. Even the hardest rocking track, “Wasted,” which settles on a surly guitar groove accented with punchy horns, feels more like an invitation to explore the darkest corners of innerspace than a call to party. In that way, The Waterfall II feels (apologies for using a corny term) more honest. Much of the record is composed of bleary-eyed, pedal steel-laced ballads that dwell ruefully on loss and aspire gorgeously to a state of healing, creating an all-too-relatable vibe of heartsick restlessness driven by a desperate desire to believe that tomorrow will somehow be better. So we guess it really is relevant to our endless now after all.

  • A “Live Documentary” Collaboration by Sam Green & Yo La Tengo
    R. BUCK- MINSTER FULLER A “live documentary” collaboration by Sam Green & Yo La Tengo CONTACT: [email protected] www.buckminsterfullerfilm.com CAN ONE PERSON CHANGE THE WORLD? END POVERTY? END WAR? Buckminster Fuller, twentieth-century futurist, architect, engi- neer, and inventor—he called himself a “comprehensive an- ticipatory design scientist”—experimented tirelessly for fifty years to find out just what a single person can do on behalf of humanity. R. BUCKMINSTER FULLER The Love Song of R. Buckminster Fuller is a new hour-long “live documentary” from Academy Award–nominated filmmaker Sam Green exploring Fuller’s utopian vision of radical social change through a design revolution. Originally commissioned by the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art’s Design and Ar- chitecture Department, the project is a collaboration between Green and the legendary indie band Yo La Tengo. At each screening, Green narrates the film in person and cues imag- es while Yo La Tengo performs their original score. The film’s unique form draws inspiration equally from old travelogues, the Benshi tradition, and TEDtalks. 2 Buckminster Fuller was a grandiose and generous thinker, teeming with ideas. He once put together a lecture series called “Everything I Know”—it was forty-two hours long. No notes. He was an early proponent of conservation and environmen- tal stewardship as social justice; Fuller was interested in “doing more with less,” so that everybody could have enough. He redesigned human structures from cars and bathrooms all the way up to entire cities, inspiring figures as diverse as the industrialist Henry Kaiser, John Cage, and Stewart Brand.
