Lisa Rein interview on Music for America

Lisa Rein interview on Music for America 12/11/2003 02:25 PM
Here's a great Music for America interview with activist/musician/geek Lisa Rein, whose open-invitation concert/party is this Saturday in San Francisco.

I believe that music is a good way to approach the emotional side of these controversial political issues. I believe that the cultural aspects of, for instance, copyright -- and the common man's loss of our history and heritage in exchange for big business to make more money on it's intellectual property -- are explained better through song.

I also believe that music is a good way to raise awareness about important issues. If you can write a song that's good in its own right, in that it's a catchy tune and people like it no matter what it's about -- that they might eventually read the lyrics and learn more about the issue you're singing about.

I try to follow John Lennon's model in raising awareness. He was able to eventually stop the vietnam war with this song and the feeling of love and community that he was able to bring to people at large. I hope to do the same thing and encourage others to climb on board.

Lisa Rein -- XML wonk, activist, writer, musician -- is holding a giant, open party on Dec 13 in San Francisco at which she will be performing her music. Admission's free!

This party is basically a chance for me to present my music and catch up with old friends. I've wanted to have a party for some time since I moved back to San Francisco in October 2001, but I kind of know a lot of people, and wanted to invite all of them, and still have enough room for the people I don't know personally yet to come by and say hi and hear my tunes.

Jerry Lobdill writes with this interesting story about a remix culture now regulated:

This is an example of the kind of art flamenco is--or was. And I speak particularly about the guitar here. The roots of flamenco are lost in the mists of time. They go back at least into the late 1700s, but probably farther. At this time there are over 40 distinct forms which are each characterized by a specific repetitive rhythmic pattern termed "compas", a specified musical mode (major, minor, or phrygian), and certain signature resolution phrases or other unique musical features.  I have played flamenco guitar for 47 years. When I was learning to play, the current versions of the forms could be traced back to a few virtuosos who came on the scene as early as 1905 or thereabouts. Every form is played as a series of sections that are distinct in melody and are sandwiched between more or less standard rhythmic sections characteristic of the form. The melodic sections are called "falsetas". The sections are played in whatever order a player chooses and players spend spare time trying to invent new falsetas or modifying old ones. Most players know the genealogy of their falsetas to some extent, but anything that is older than a couple of generations is usually of unknown origin.  Lore has it that great flamenco guitarists invent falsetas on the fly during performance. This is nonsense. But that's another story. Hardly any guitarist can read music and/or uses any kind of notation to commit falsetas to paper. In the cante (song) the verses (letras) and the melodies are generally very old though most are associated with the name of the originator.  Through the 1950s it was expected that players would play mostly traditional things with minor additional innovations. The falsetas of a particular player did not usually evolve from one recording to the next, and, indeed, players had favorite falsetas that they played for years. But as soon as recording industry moguls got involved all that changed. Nowadays they are claiming copyright on everything that is recorded, even the traditional portions that have been played since antiquity. Guitarists such as Paco de Lucia are pushed and prodded to innovate, and he has said publicly that the creation of new material is the most difficult part of what he does in this modern environment. Yet even his innovations (when he plays flamenco instead of the bastardized watered down stuff he mostly plays these days) contain traditional resolution phrases and rhythmic sections that define the forms and are ancient anonymous creations. Spanish copyright has gone crazy locking up the public domain along with the new in recent years. I have reams of manuscript transcripts of fabulous flamenco guitar music that will never be published because of the abuse and tyranny of copyright law. Like many non-Spanish flamenco guitar players, I play what I consider to be the best--just like Spaniards did before commercialization of the art. It's sad that all this will never be published for the enjoyment of the world.

Lisää Karpelan sensuurista

Lisää Karpelan sensuurista 04/03/2005 08:14 PM
Enter-lehden 3/2005 pääkirjoituksessa päätoimittaja Tuomas Kilpi suomii ankarasti ministeri Karpelan sensuurihanketta (linkittäisin suoraan pääkirjoitukseen, mutta sitä ei löydy verkosta. Mikä on jotakuinkin tyhmää - tokko kukaan lehteä ostaa lukeakseen pääkirjoituksen, mutta verkossa pääkirjoituksille löytyisi luultavasti enemmän vastakaikua.)

Juuri näin. Kun yritin ottaa selvää, millä perusteella blogiani sensuroidaan, vastauksena oli "se on ehkä tekninen vika". Todellinen vastaus on, ettei kukaan todella tiennyt, eikä ketään oikeasti kiinnostanut. Ja se on pelottavaa.

Lähetin tämän kirjeen Suomen Kuvalehden lukijapalstalle. Ehkä sillä on jotain vaikutusta. Luultavasti ei, mutta köyhän pitää yrittää.

(Ensin sensuroidaan raaka porno, sitten pehmeä porno, sitten laittomasti levitetyt elokuvat, sitten MP3:t, sitten väärät uskonnot, sitten eriävät mielipiteet, sitten Linu x... Kaikelle löytyy aina hyvä perustelu.)

Have I told you how cool it is to bring your family to a conference? Assuming you get a god babysitter - your sife gets to join you and we can have quality time together AND get worlk done.

So here's Lisa rapping to Richard Erickson of Bryght at VIDfest.

Meanwhile Mimi and Lucy are up in the hotel room with a sitter.

So for all of you road warriors who spend half their time schmoozing at conferences around the world - I highly recommend you take your families with you (Doc?)

A BoingBoing art exclusive: the latest watercolor from Moira Hahn, whose illustration work has appeared in Time, the New Yorker, and elsewhere. About this remix of classic ukiyo-e art -- which depicts a backyard conflict between cats and birds -- Moira says "Kuniyoshi was an influence, the primary Edo period ukiyo-e artist who regularly depicted cats... [but] most of this composition has been changed from various Edo and Meiji sources. The original figures were human, patterns were different, and there was no owl." [Ed. note: Dude, is that Waldo from Hatebeak on the far left?]
