	9:10am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: got today off - tho must do much: 'Veranda..' reminds me of 'Ohm' by Yo La Tengo: ever heard of those guys around here - ??...
	♥ 9:18am Liz Berg: Love "Ohm" by YLT! That tune was a hit around these parts, and that's sayin' something!
	9:18am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - you are podcast ! Interesting.

	♥ 9:23am Webhamster Henry: These are some nice FMA selections, Liz!
	♥ 9:31am Liz Berg: We're quietly trying to raise money to purchase some gear for our new performance space, Monty Hall. Please hit the pledgeometer at the top of the page and toss us a few coins! Help me hit 33% by noon!
	9:34am bobdoesthings: ooooooooooooo!! head bopping now
	9:39am genericPlacebo: gR8 gleaning of thee FMA !
	♥ 9:41am Sem Chumbo: Sure sounds good in here. That you cooking, Liz? Good morning, and hello Lizners all.
	♥ 9:41am Rev. Turnip Druid: .............................
	♥ 9:42am Liz Berg: I see more of you are waking up! Welcome sleepy peeps!
	♥ 9:44am common: sooooooo sleepy. music is helping.
	9:49am mb: This Peacock Ball sounds like Clutch. And thats a great thing.
	♥ 9:50am Rev. Turnip Druid: Post-festival snoozy down here. Nothing builds character like prolonged sleep deprivation.
	9:52am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - not being a regular listener to this timeslot: ...you bring them great ambient electronic beats (if you'll pardon my ElectroGenre illiteracy) - but you seem to have an ear for gittar tones as well...
	9:56am Cecile: Hi, all! Rev, what festival did you partake of?
	♥ 9:56am Liz Berg: Yes Rev, do tell about the fest!
	♥ 9:58am Rev. Turnip Druid: sonic circuits fest., outside DC. Had a good dose of NYC noisemakers mixing with the local heroes. Great stuff.
	♥ 9:58am Rev. Turnip Druid: Haven't seen GenKen Montgomery since late '80s... Brilliant.
	10:00am Cecile: that sounds awesome
	10:03am Cecile: I think someone could do an amazing doctoral thesis about how Contemporary Christian music (mainstream and cult-like) has influenced music (mainstream and cult-like) in the twenty-teens.
	10:05am Cecile: Okay: I have three potential final papers to write in History of Graphic Design: 1) Mucha vs. John Dyer Baizley 2) Alvin Lustig vs Elaine Lustig Cohen or 3) 20s surrealism vs Hipgnosis album covers. I was kind of set on the Baizley one, but now I'm not sure.
	10:05am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...wull - most of the Darkest Metalheads were Catholic School victims : ) ...
	10:06am Cecile: I used to be afraid of Slayer until I learned 1/2 of the band were practicing Catholics.
	10:07am Cecile: no, it's just all this music out there that sounds like it should be sung in a mega church with 8000 other people, mainstream and otherwise.
	♥ 10:07am Rev. Turnip Druid: Cecile: no.3 sounds like a winner.
	10:08am Cecile: I kind of think so now. I kind of don't want to give it to someone who's not going to appreciate it.
	10:09am Cecile: except, I'm not that huge a fan of 20s surrealism. I am a huge fan of Hipgnosis.
	♥ 10:11am Sem Chumbo: @Cecile: are you thinking re: #1, that Mucha's kinda Johnny One Note and just not that interesting?
	10:12am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...one defintion of Rock'n'Roll might be Gospel w/ Dirty lyrics... - Hipgnosis seems very Magritte to me ; has been said that Horror just rips Surrealism out of context too - to put it uncharitably... - have mused that: Psych is Surrealism + R&B - Mod is Futurism + R&B - Punk is DAdA...+ R&B...
	10:12am Cecile: No, I think he's fascinating and I like his sense of beauty, even though it's pretty stylized. And he was a definite influence on Baizeley (dude who plays in baroness and does art for them, Metallica and a ton of other people)_
	10:13am Cecile: "Vs" means compare/contrast. Whoops, it does sounds like a battle royale. Didn't mean to do that.
	♥ 10:14am Sem Chumbo: I just had a look at some work by John Dyer Baizley, and he is an apt Mucha pupil, alright, but that death and darkness stuff is fairly worked over, too. ...
	10:14am Cecile: oh, rev, do you still have that sheet of Baby Teeth lettering?
	10:16am Cecile: he also has elements of Pushead in there, as well. I like his stuff because while Art Noveau hinted at decadence, Baizley is the flip side: The worms are crawling over everything.
	10:17am still b/p: I see a Mucha female figure walking the ring and holding aloft the perfect card displaying the number of each round of the fight.
	10:18am Cecile: Awesome, sbp.
	10:19am Cecile: there's no breeze, and yet her clothing flutters.
	♥ 10:19am listener james from westwood: Wow. Who knew there were T'Pau covers out there? Good find!
	10:20am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - so yeah: I think you could make a pretty good Thesis out of Pop/Rawk Movements being like earlier European Art Movements alloyed to Black American Music generally/broadly...
	10:20am Cecile: Yeah, Greil Marcus kind of did that in Lipstick Traces.
	10:21am Cecile: I'm just supposed to contast/compare two artists or movements over FOUR pages. I know I'm not going to go into any detail.
	♥ 10:27am Greg from Bloomfield: Morning, Liz & everybody!
	♥ 10:29am Rev. Turnip Druid: Cecile: I've got the babyteeth Chartpak™ sheets somewhere in a box, I'm sure. Plus endless sheets of dry-transfer zippotone & some very un-fashionable & badly dated type (copperplate, etc). A dead art, sadly.
	10:30am Cecile: I have to do a group project on Push Pin, etc. so I thought if you had them at your fingertips (don't go digging) you could scan 'em for me and I could use it in my PowerPoint.
	♥ 10:32am Liz Berg: Anyone else catch the Vaselines playlists in the NYT? tmagazine.blogs.nytimes.com...
	10:32am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...oh...a narrow focus can mean actually being able to research & learn something I guess : p - & Thx for the Marcus tip: he's so basic - embarrassing to say I haven't read 'im...
	10:33am Cecile: It's kind of a convoluted book. It's not the easiest read, but he does link several art movements together to explain how the Sex Pistols happened.
	10:37am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - wull - all the post-National Service Brits went to ArtSchool - & the rest is history ...nice to see Teardrop Explodes on their list ! - Everyone was playing Scottish music during the referendum ; very impressive once it's separated out from the Brits for people like me...
	10:39am Chris from DC: “I found this record on my brother’s turntable. Stole it.” Ha.
	10:39am Cheri Pi: Doctopus! Cecile! Liz! paps! and the rest of the family! I'm werkin' and lurkin'
	♥ 10:42am Liz Berg: Lurk it, gurrl!
	10:43am Cecile: hiya, Pi!
	10:50am Cecile: hey, Linotype still has Glaser Stencil pretty cheap. I think I might go that route.
	10:54am the gp: Liza and lizners, this show is making me tremble!
	♥ 10:58am Greg from Bloomfield: JENNIE THE CAT FOR MASCOT 2014! She is the change that America needs.
	♥ 10:58am Rev. Turnip Druid: Lurkin' & leanin'
	♥ 10:58am Webhamster Henry: Cecile, if you're doing some work on Push Pin Studios, I have a complete run of AUDIENCE magazines, the pushiest, pinniest hardbound magazine ever published!
	♥ 10:59am Rev. Turnip Druid: Propped up on caffeine and the evaporating fumes of forgotten youth...
	11:00am Cecile: wow, WH, that sounds awesome. I think I'm going to hit the library pretty hard, maybe our library has them too.
	♥ 11:03am Webhamster Henry: They are ad free, full of art , "new journalism", interviews and each issue is loosely "themed"!
	11:08am still b/p: I'd like to see Jules Feiffer's dance lady enjoying Robot Dance Party. Can someone call him?
	♥ 11:13am Liz Berg: Check out the WFMU Mascot Contestants: wfmu.org...
	11:13am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...I'm seeing Aubrey Beardsley in John Dyer Baizley...
	11:14am Cecile: Yes, him too. I was going to point out the Beardsley, Pushead and Mucha elements in that.
	♥ 11:14am Webhamster Henry: If you haven't put in an pledge for the October Invisible Marathon, please do!
	11:15am Robert: This piece is the sort of music that'd bore me if it were in English and played in any other setting. Somehow the combination of its being in French and the setting Ms. Berg gives it makes it at least tolerable, maybe even pleasant. That says something about the skill of the DJ: the ability not only to give us great entertainment, but sometimes to get a portion of the audience over what would otherwise be low spots.
	11:16am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - word.
	11:17am Robert: Looks like a left-handed compliment, doesn't it? But think about it. Nobody could possibly have someone else happen to pick out music that's your favorite pieces all the time, given the enormous variety in musical tastes. Someone who can keep us listening over the long run -- that's a skill we don't often recognize, but it's there.
	♥ 11:18am Webhamster Henry: WFMU is little more than an artful series of segues. That's actually a spectacular and more or less unmatched artistic achievement.
	11:22am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - quite.
	11:25am Robert: It's also great how Mondays have worked out. I don't know whether to credit Mr. Freedman, Mr. Turner, or the serendipity of when people were available, but the peppiness of Ms. Berg's program, which seems NEEDED on a Mon. morn, followed by the laid-back programming of Ms. Trudel, just fits wonderfully.
	♥ 11:28am Liz Berg: Though I've been on some modestly satisfying youtube excursions in music discovery, none of those journeys can hold a candle to the wonderfully unexpected nature of music discovery when guided by an actual human. I guess that's all why we're gathered here!
	11:29am mdffrnt: You might call it a "rhythm long journey" or some such.
	11:30am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: @ Cec: (too) many things come to mind: illustrators like Virgil Finlay, tattoo artists, the old-time San Francisco posters... - I think 'Brian in UK' says it well: ...'We are normal and we want our freeform, yes FMU is the home of radio that has grown up. A sophisicated system that hides behinds a seemimgly juvenile facade'....
	♥ 11:32am rsj: that last track was awesome, great show as usual LIZ!
	♥ 11:32am DCE: my brain is skipping
	♥ 11:33am common: so is mine, dce.
	11:33am t_J: Liz Wagon? nice
	11:34am Robert: Ms. Berg, once your friends have an idea of your music tastes, stuff just seems to flow to you. It's like being a reporter, where once you get enough of an audience, people start funneling their stories to you.
	11:36am t_J: glad i had my expresso ;)
	11:38am Robert: This year a tip from a comment thread turned me on to Poopy Lungstuffing; a play by Mr. Freedman turned me on to Neil Cicierega's mashups, even though I'd been attempted to be made aware of Mr. Cicierega years earlier by Jesse Walker's reporting; and now a Facebook cx that I maintain as a favor for an organiz'n turned me on to Steve 'n' Seagulls.
	♥ 11:46am DCE: boy I hope the Budos Band goes on tour
	♥ 11:57am holland oats: that PRD track wuz great
	♥ 12:00pm Greg from Bloomfield: Thank YOU, Liz!
	12:00pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - Thx MizzBee.

	11:00am Cecile: wow, WH, that sounds awesome. I think I'm going to hit the library pretty hard, maybe our library has them too.
	♥ 11:03am Webhamster Henry: They are ad free, full of art , "new journalism", interviews and each issue is loosely "themed"!
	11:08am still b/p: I'd like to see Jules Feiffer's dance lady enjoying Robot Dance Party. Can someone call him?
	♥ 11:13am Liz Berg: Check out the WFMU Mascot Contestants: wfmu.org...
	11:13am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...I'm seeing Aubrey Beardsley in John Dyer Baizley...
	11:14am Cecile: Yes, him too. I was going to point out the Beardsley, Pushead and Mucha elements in that.
	♥ 11:14am Webhamster Henry: If you haven't put in an pledge for the October Invisible Marathon, please do!
	11:15am Robert: This piece is the sort of music that'd bore me if it were in English and played in any other setting. Somehow the combination of its being in French and the setting Ms. Berg gives it makes it at least tolerable, maybe even pleasant. That says something about the skill of the DJ: the ability not only to give us great entertainment, but sometimes to get a portion of the audience over what would otherwise be low spots.
	11:16am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - word.
	11:17am Robert: Looks like a left-handed compliment, doesn't it? But think about it. Nobody could possibly have someone else happen to pick out music that's your favorite pieces all the time, given the enormous variety in musical tastes. Someone who can keep us listening over the long run -- that's a skill we don't often recognize, but it's there.
	♥ 11:18am Webhamster Henry: WFMU is little more than an artful series of segues. That's actually a spectacular and more or less unmatched artistic achievement.
	11:22am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - quite.
	11:25am Robert: It's also great how Mondays have worked out. I don't know whether to credit Mr. Freedman, Mr. Turner, or the serendipity of when people were available, but the peppiness of Ms. Berg's program, which seems NEEDED on a Mon. morn, followed by the laid-back programming of Ms. Trudel, just fits wonderfully.
	♥ 11:28am Liz Berg: Though I've been on some modestly satisfying youtube excursions in music discovery, none of those journeys can hold a candle to the wonderfully unexpected nature of music discovery when guided by an actual human. I guess that's all why we're gathered here!
	11:29am mdffrnt: You might call it a "rhythm long journey" or some such.
	11:30am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: @ Cec: (too) many things come to mind: illustrators like Virgil Finlay, tattoo artists, the old-time San Francisco posters... - I think 'Brian in UK' says it well: ...'We are normal and we want our freeform, yes FMU is the home of radio that has grown up. A sophisicated system that hides behinds a seemimgly juvenile facade'....
	♥ 11:32am rsj: that last track was awesome, great show as usual LIZ!
	♥ 11:32am DCE: my brain is skipping
	♥ 11:33am common: so is mine, dce.
	11:33am t_J: Liz Wagon? nice
	11:34am Robert: Ms. Berg, once your friends have an idea of your music tastes, stuff just seems to flow to you. It's like being a reporter, where once you get enough of an audience, people start funneling their stories to you.
	11:36am t_J: glad i had my expresso ;)
	11:38am Robert: This year a tip from a comment thread turned me on to Poopy Lungstuffing; a play by Mr. Freedman turned me on to Neil Cicierega's mashups, even though I'd been attempted to be made aware of Mr. Cicierega years earlier by Jesse Walker's reporting; and now a Facebook cx that I maintain as a favor for an organiz'n turned me on to Steve 'n' Seagulls.
	♥ 11:46am DCE: boy I hope the Budos Band goes on tour
	♥ 11:57am holland oats: that PRD track wuz great
	♥ 12:00pm Greg from Bloomfield: Thank YOU, Liz!
	12:00pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - Thx MizzBee.
