S1E22 - Jesus Christ Superstar by Robin Kahn

Audio Art Special about what makes music good or bad or indifferent.

Episode Notes

Robin Kahn can't sing. In this wonderful work of audio art, she rises up singing a piece that she was obsessed with. This raises questions, from what makes great music to the role of talent to exactly what has modernism done to us!

S1E21 - Birdcalls by Louise Lawler

Audio Art special, this one is all about how names lose meaning

Episode Notes

Louise Lawler gives us a series of names, male names, that are taken out of their traditional context and put into a new form, a form as meaningless as the names become so over-whelmingly present from the mouths of critics and Art fans that they drown out the names of fine women artists.

S1E20 - Shoot by Chris Burden

They freakin' shot him!

Episode Notes

Arguably the most dangerous of all Performance artists of the 20th century, Chris Burden did a lot of stupid stuff, including getting shot through the arm. Only a portion of the video of the event survives, though much of the audio still does, and it as a whole still works.
