Filosofía Y Cultura Popular Cine, Series, Música Y Literatura Desde Las Humanidades COLECCIÓN PUENTES CP La Filosofía queda a veces asociada con sistemas complejos CP y jergas técnicas que progresivamente se alejaron de la vida cotidiana para refugiarse en la biblioteca de los especialistas. Este volumen muestra la distorsión profunda de esta idea y pone en primer plano la vitalidad de la reflexión filosófica que se cuela en todos los intersticios de nuestro entorno invitan- do al cuestionamiento de todo aquello que parece obvio. Las figuras de la cultura popular en su arco de producciones aso- ciadas con el cine y la literatura ofrecen un material rico en este terreno y los ágiles y sutiles estudios que aquí se ofrecen develan las capas de sentido que llevan cifrados modos de Sonna (coord.) y Rodrigo Illaraga Valeria expresar nuestra época, del mismo modo que la épica, la tra- gedia y la comedia fueron en la antigüedad una manera de expresar la identidad y las fracturas que atraviesan toda cultu- Filosofía y cultura popular ra.

Los resultados no fueron los mejores, hay que reconocerlo, pero algunos de los términos que usamos y oímos a diario surgieron de escritos filosóficos emblemá- ticos y cobraron en esta tierra un nuevo significado. Es co- mún, por ejemplo, escuchar a muchos hablar de “una pieza trascendental” para hacer referencia a una obra de teatro en la calle Corrientes, que hace que la platea lagrimee y se sienta compelida a reflexiones profundas después, mien- tras se come una porción de pizza de mozzarella. Tampoco sorprende que se hable de una “banda paradigmática” para hacer referencia a un conjunto musical que representa muy bien a un género o que en un artículo periodístico un ana- lista mencione un “giro copernicano” en el discurso de un político en campaña. Nunca sabremos qué dirían Kant o Kuhn de estos giros del lenguaje, pero parece seguro afir- mar que se sorprenderían. Y es que, sin dudas, la cultura popular local tomó mu- cho de los grandes escritos filosóficos, incluso cuando fue 7 para resignificarlos o interpretarlos de modo capricho- so o antojadizo. La tentación de abordar desde el llano lo que parece grandilocuente es alta y difícil de resistir pero siempre deja un sabor amargo. Ya lo dejó cifrado Charly García cuando cantó, nada más y nada menos que en Filosofía barata y zapatos de goma, aquello de que “ni esta mentira te hace feliz”. Gracias, Charly, por esto de “filoso- fía barata”, es el análisis de época y la unidad de análisis que Nietzsche no llegó a dejarnos. Es este panorama el que vuelve tan necesario a este vo- lumen y el que convierte a su salida en algo tan auspicio- so. Luego de haber sido ultrajada tantas veces, al fin llegó el momento en que es la filosofía la que se asoma a la cultu- ra popular. Pero es importante que lo haga con sus reglas, siendo curiosa, inquieta, rigurosa… y un poquito pretencio- sa. Desde House of Cards hasta Batman, pasando por la lite- ratura manga, las distopías de Alan Moore y la irreverencia de Lamborghini, todo pasa por el prisma de estos jóvenes filósofos. El búho de Minerva vuelve a levantar vuelo cuan- do el sol cae. Pero la noche recién comienza. 8 Tomás Balmaceda Introducción Valeria Sonna y Rodrigo Illarraga ¿Por qué filosofía y cultura popular? ¿No es la filosofía también parte de la cultura popular? Ciertamente la filoso- fía se ha vuelto más popular en nuestra época de lo que lo fue en siglos anteriores. Hay filósofos mediáticos y progra- mas de filosofía que se transmiten por televisión. Y, segura- mente, es la televisión el medidor más certero de lo que es o no es popular. No obstante, esta popularidad no parece haber alcanzado los contenidos filosóficos, y la filosofía –la académica, al menos– parece quedar relegada a un ámbito muy reducido. Desde la Universidad muchas veces nos encerramos en temas hiperespecializados que solo manejan un par de per- sonas en el mundo: mal que nos pese, esa es la forma en que hoy se construye el conocimiento. No obstante, creemos que partiendo de la Universidad, las Humanidades tienen mucho para decir sobre las cosas que nos gustan y que nos rodean todos los días. Cines, series, películas, libros, video- juegos: las cosas que nos divierten hoy no tienen nada que envidiarle a La Ilíada o a La Odisea de Homero –el Game of 9 Thrones en tiempos del surgimiento de la filosofía– si nos quitamos la venda romántica de nuestros ojos. Filosofía + Cultura Popular es nuestra manera de sacar la filosofía a la calle. Filosofía en su acepción más amplia: las Humanidades puestas a hablar sobre lo que nos rodea todos los días, la música que escuchamos mientras viajamos en subte, las series y películas que vemos para relajarnos al fi- nal del día, los libros que leemos en el “bondi”. Lara Encinas y Catalina Monjeau, intentan con éxito dar- le una vuelta de tuerca a las críticas del mundo intelectual habituales hacia revistas como Cosmopolitan. Olvidando ob- jeciones trilladas, Lara y Catalina reconstruyen las comple- jidades tragicómicas de la subjetividad de nuestro tiempo. Verdad, Ser, Filosofía, Heterosexualidad, todas las ma- yúsculas Hegemónicas que responden a la lógica del Falo, son puestas en cuestión en la deconstrucción contemporá- nea. Agustina Arrarás, lectora perversa, nos conduce por los pliegues de las resistencias lamborghianas y derredianas. El film La bicicleta verde es abordado por Pamela Abellón desde el pensamiento de Simone de Beauvoir. Pamela ex- hibe, con profunda sensibilidad y agudeza, la problemática existencial de Wadjda, una niña musulmana de diez años de edad, cuyo deseo es reprimido a causa de su condición de género. Mariana Gardella explora de manera lúdica las con- secuencias de la hipótesis de la convencionalidad lin- güística en una divertida comparación entre el Crátilo de Platón y Canino (Kynódontas), la película del griego Giórgos Lánthimos. Mariana, como buena cinéfila, desnuda a través del film, no sin una cuota de humor, las terribles relaciones entre lenguaje y poder. Rodrigo Illarraga nos invita a realizar una lectura del egoísmo pragmático de Frank Underwood en la serie House of cards, trabajando a partir de las nociones de mentira y 10 Valeria Sonna y Rodrigo Illarraga autodominio. Rodrigo, nerd a morir, nos propone una alter- nativa para comprender la serie como una invitación a re- pensar la política a la manera de una herramienta de cambio.

    PORT AUTHORITY: THE SOUL OF THE NAVY BAND COUNTRY CURRENT TURNS 45 SPOTLIGHT ON MASTER CHIEF MUSICIAN KEVIN DINES t’s been an incredibly productive and rewarding couple of months for the Navy Band and Navy Music to kick off 2018. The Concert Band toured 12 states, performing in 21 cities and covering nearly 5,000 miles. IThe Sea Chanters wowed audiences in three states on their national tour. Already we’ve had Navy bands connecting with people all over the world, including a historic visit by the aircraft carrier USS Carl Vinson with the U.S. 7th Fleet Band to Da Nang, Vietnam. It’s awe inspiring to witness the great work our musicians do each and every day telling our Navy’s story. Our Music in the Schools program is headed in an exciting new direction. In this issue, Chief Musician Randy Johnson talks about our first adventure taking our educational outreach programs into schools around the world, thanks to a partnership with Defense Media Activity. Reaching out to young people and showing them the benefits of hard work and dedication is always a highlight for us. In May, we’ll be celebrating the 45th anniversary of Country Current with a special concert featuring former members of the group at Schlesinger Hall in Alexandria, Virginia. Country Current, always a crowd favorite, mixes flawless country and bluegrass playing with a down-to-earth performance style that never ceases to impress. We’re all looking forward to this opportunity to celebrate the decades of service this group has given our Navy.

    For Guy, Lestat’s biggest challenge was simply the amount of time it demanded. “It just never ended!” he laughs. “A show like that is a constantly evolving process. One thing always hinges on another—for example, the music might get changed, not because it isn’t working as music, but because it’s not working with whatever is going on onstage.” Babylon started work on Lestat in 2003, when Elton John began composing the score. “He’d come into the studio early and write a song, and then I would spend the rest of the day creating an arrangement,” he recalls. “Elton’s guitar player, Davey Johnstone, was also involved in that process. So it was basically Elton, Davey, and me in the studio with an engineer. We made pretty elaborate demos of all these songs. In fact, if you listen to the demos from beginning to end, it sounds like an album.” Guy also had a hand in crafting arrangements for the final production. “Since I was with Elton when he wrote the songs, I had first crack at the music,” he explains. “But overall, I’m just a small part of a team of people. We all did whatever it is we specialize in to make the show as good as possible. I was one of three orchestrators, along with Steve Margoshes and Bruce Coughlin. I also worked with an assistant programmer, John Roggie. But Lestat’s music director, Brad Haak, really had the most creative input.” As a longtime user of Yamaha Motif keyboards, Guy knew they’d be perfect for Lestat .
