Böcker jag läst 2016-2019

På den här bloggen har jag varje år lagt ut en lista på alla böcker jag läst ut från pärm till pärm under året som gått. Men 2016 blev det inte av, inte heller 2017 eller 2018. Framförallt för att listan inte kändes representativ. Under dessa år har olika jobbprojekt gjort att jag behövt ägna mig åt research där jag tvingats läsa utvalda delar i olika böcker istället för enskild bok i sin helhet. Under 2016-2017 läste jag t.ex. mycket om anabaptismen, men det är inget som märks i listan. Men nu har jag ändå bestämt mig för att lägga ut den. Kolla gärna in taggen #aureliaguläser på Instagram, där lägger jag ibland ut boktips och små recensioner (och där syns även de böcker jag inte läst från pärm till pärm utan bara utvalda delar).

JOYEUX ANNIVERSAIRE À JEAN CHARDAVOINE.

GRAND GUITARISTE, COMPOSITEUR, INTERPRÈTE HAÏTIEN.

Wanted ! On recherche un grand guitariste : Jean Chardavoine

Publié le 2018-04-11 | Le NouvellistE

Culture -

Rassurez-vous, il n’a commis aucun délit, aucun crime de droit commun : c’est une plaisanterie de notre part. « it’s just a joke » !

S’il y a meurtre, c’est celui de la facilité et des sentiers battus. Car Jean Chardavoine ne fait pas dans le prévisible, la routine et la dentelle. C’est un musicien complet : grand guitariste, arrangeur et compositeur. Ce fils d’Haïtiens émigrés, élevé dans la diaspora, a fait de solides études musicales ; c’est une fierté pour Haïti que ce grand musicien. Le jazz et ses métissages sont le champ d’élection de cet artiste.

Jean Chardavoine, pour autant que nous nous en souvenions, a rendu hommage à ses racines haïtiennes dans une ou deux de ses albums précédents. Cette fois, l’arrangeur-compositeur explore des pistes plus célèbres et fréquentées, plus courues par la communauté américaine et internationale de jazz contemporain. Ce sont les voies accessibles et tout public du jazz-fusion « binaire » avec un goût prononcé pour la samba-jazz, expérience réussie et renommée dès les années 60 au XXe siècle, et le « funk » ou « funky » à tendance latine. Nous osons mentionner le funk et nous insistons, même sans la fameuse basse qui claque, qui « slappe ». On sent certainement son influence rythmique, particulièrement par la frappe du batteur, dans deux ou trois compositions. Samba et « Funk » se sont influencés réciproquement, si on se rappelle la carrière d’une Tania Maria Correa Reis aux États-Unis et de la grande Eliane Elias. Quelque chose en est resté.

Le compositeur aime également le moule de la contredanse haïtienne (méringue- contredanse dite « mayoyo ») que l’on sent confusément suggérée, mélangée aux tendances latine et funky ; sans toutefois occuper le premier plan de la perception rythmique et auditive.

Par contre, « Ode to Arco », 6/8 et huitième morceau figurant sur le CD est un beau et franc « Yanvalou » bien de chez nous (d’autres diraient mayi ou djouba, rythmes proches). La tradition rythmique américaine du jazz « ternaire » et «swing » à 4/4 est honorée dans le dernier thème « Cul-de-sac ».

Du point de vue mélodique, les compositions ou thèmes ne se laissent pas cerner facilement par leurs contours. Ceux-ci ne répondent pas toujours aux grilles traditionnelles de lecture du jazz, comme celles de la forme « blues » ou de la forme « song » consacrées. Les morceaux comprennent des introductions typées et soignées, véritables ouvertures qui les coiffent avant l’entrée du thème principal proprement dit. Les phrases du canevas proposé sont souvent longues, à vous perdre, à vous égarer, si vous n’y prenez garde. D’une manière générale, il y a une première section A, plus souvent complexe que simple, parfois comprenant des strates ou couches surprenantes. Il y a un pont ou « Bridge » B, très personnalisé, très en relief et structuré. Pour finir, il y a reprise totale ou partielle de A.

De belles improvisations de guitare, de piano, de saxophone, de trompette, de contrebasse et d’harmonica développent par leurs commentaires des idées puissantes contenues potentiellement dans les thèmes ou canevas et leurs harmonies.

Les harmonies aux tensions modérées ou fortes sont, en tout cas, modernes, très excitantes, très cohérentes et agréables. Elles sont source de couleurs, à côté de l’instrumentation.

L’instrumentation est déployée dans des formules, allant du sextette au combo à dix instruments. En général, le septette ou l’octette suffisent aux compositions du musicien, qui déploie sa science et son habileté d’arrangeur-compositeur talentueux.

CREDITS:

Guitare électrique et classique (Jean Chardavoine) ; batterie (Kim Plainfield et Phoenix Rivera) ; basse acoustique ou contrebasse (Michael O’Brian et Kenneth Jimenez) ; trompette (Chris Rogers et Pacha Karchevsky-Suyazov) ; sax ténor (Peter Brainin, Azat Bayazitov, Felipe Lamoglia) ; sax soprano (Peter Brainin, Felipe Lamoglia) ; piano (Steve Sandberg, Mike Orta, Misha tsiganov) ; harmonica (Hendrik Meurkens) ; pads (Yayoi Lina Ikawa) ; synthéthiseur (Frédérique Lasfargers) ; percussions (Emedin Rivera, Daniel Pena, Renato Thomas) ; congas (Eddie Germain) ; vocals-scat (Brandley Midouin, Karen Bernod) ; violon et viola (Caroline Buse) ; violocelle (Megan Martier).

PRESENTATION

Huit morceaux élaborés superbement figurent sur ce CD. Leur structure intime est complexe, difficile à résumer par des croquis d’analyse acoustique. Nous regrettons de ne pouvoir faire d’exégèse selon des partitions comme les musicologues (nous ne sommes pas musicologue d’ailleurs). Contentons-nous de les citer.

1-Théresa

Une samba-jazz irrésistible, dans la droite continuité des années 60, avec quelque chose de très tonique en plus. « Intro » en majeur, au sax, très remarquable. Thème en mineur dans la première partie. Pont très simple, peu bavard en majeur. Chorus : guitare et trompette.

2-« Deep Within »

Titre éponyme du disque. Le rythme ressemble à un mélange de « latin » (samba ?) et de « funky ». Un thème composé dans sa première partie par un motif de trois notes, ressemblant à une bribe d’arpège, progressant en zig-zag, en ligne brisée, par ascension et descente. A contient quatre strates, quatre phrases, légèrement différentes les unes des autres, à un ou deux détails d’intervalles : a, a’, a’’, a’’’ (lire a, a prime, a seconde, a tierce comme en géométrie). Un très beau pont B impressionnant. Reprise partielle de grand A (au moins deux phrases).

3-« Yum-Yum)

Nous semble de la même veine que le morceau précédent. C’est peut-être l’un des thèmes les plus complexes : AABAB. Exposition tendre au saxophone soprano. Chorus : sax soprano, contrebasse, guitare électrique.

4-« Forgotten dreams »

Funky. Funk-jazz à la George Benson, du temps de l’album « Breezing ». En majeur, avec la belle présence de l’harmonica, à l’exposition et en solo.

5- « Happy to be nappy » ou « Fier d’avoir les cheveux crépus »

La pièce de résistance du compositeur. Très composée et arrangée. Très soignée. « Intro » très méditative, pausée, de type « classique » et « ad lib », tendre, entre la guitare électrique, le violon, le viola, le violoncelle. Puis, vient la samba entraînante.

6-« Karamell »

Ambiance ressemblant à la précédente. Bons solos de guitare et du piano de Steve Sandberg.

7-« Astrida »

Tendrement introduite par une guitare électrique libre et récitante ; presque avec un lyrisme de ballade. Le rythme s’avère être ensuite celui, irrésistible, d’une espèce de samba-funky avec la figure typée, obsédante de la basse, invitant à la danse. On aime Karen Bernod et ses onomatopées aux « vocals » doublant la mélodie.

8-« Ode to Arco »

Un 6/8 et « Yanvalou » bien de chez nous. Avec les vents en relief, le solo du pianiste et celui de Felipe Lamoglia au sax ténor.

9-« Cul-de-sac »

Quand on retrouve et honore la tradition du jazz « ternaire » et « swinguant » en 4/4, à tempo modérément rapide. Pour faire plaisir aux conservateurs.

Réserves

On aurait voulu entendre une ou deux ballades vraies sur cet album, pour changer de climat.

Appréciations

Un grand album ou CD, aux thèmes imposants, parfois complexes. C’est bien arrangé, bien développé, mais toujours dansant. « Bailable ! », comme on dit en espagnol.

Wanted : On recherche un grand et dangereux guitariste : Jean Chardavoine. Étourdissant ! Époustouflant !

Once Tech’s Favorite Economist, Now a Thorn in Its Side Paul Romer was once Silicon Valley’s favorite economist. The theory that helped him win a Nobel prize — that ideas are the turbocharged fuel of the modern economy — resonated deeply in the global capital of wealth-generating ideas. In the 1990s, Wired magazine called him “an economist for the technological age.” The Wall Street Journal said the tech industry treated him “like a rock star.” Not anymore. Today, Mr. Romer, 65, remains a believer in science and technology as engines of progress. But he has also become a fierce critic of the tech industry’s largest companies, saying that they stifle the flow of new ideas. He has championed new state taxes on the digital ads sold by companies like Facebook and Google, an idea that Maryland adopted this year. And he is hard on economists, including himself, for long supplying the intellectual cover for hands-off policies and court rulings that have led to what he calls the “collapse of competition” in tech and other industries. “Economists taught, ‘It’s the market. There’s nothing we can do,’” Mr. Romer said. “That’s really just so wrong.” Mr. Romer’s current call for government activism, he said, reflects “a profound change in my thinking” in recent years. It also fits into a broader re-evaluation about the tech industry and government regulation among prominent economists. They see markets — search, social networks, online advertising, e-commerce — not behaving according to free-market theory. Monopoly or oligopoly seems to be the order of the day. The relentless rise of the digital giants, they say, requires new thinking and new rules. Some were members of the tech-friendly Obama administration. In congressional testimony and research reports, they are contributing ideas and credibility to policymakers who want to rein in the big tech companies. Their policy recommendations vary. They include stronger enforcement, giving people more control over their data and new legislation. Many economists support the bill introduced this year by Senator Amy Klobuchar, Democrat of Minnesota, that would tighten curbs on mergers. The bill would effectively “overrule a number of faulty, pro-defendant Supreme Court cases,” Carl Shapiro, an economist at the University of California, Berkeley, and a member of the Council of Economic Advisers in the Obama administration, wrote in a recent presentation to the American Bar Association. Some economists, notably Jason Furman, a Harvard professor, chair of the Council of Economic Advisers in the Obama administration and adviser to the British government on digital markets, recommend a new regulatory authority to enforce a code of conduct on big tech companies that would include fair access to their platforms for rivals, open technical standards and data mobility. Thomas Philippon, an economist at New York University’s Stern School of Business, has estimated that monopolies in industries across the economy cost American households $300 a month apiece. “We’ve all changed because what’s really happened is an expansion of the evidence,” said Fiona Scott Morton, an official in the Justice Department’s antitrust division in the Obama administration, who is an economist at the Yale University School of Management. Of all the economists now taking on big tech, though, Mr. Romer is perhaps the most unlikely. He earned his undergraduate and doctoral degrees from the University of Chicago, long the high church of free-market absolutism, whose ideology has guided antitrust court decisions for years. Mr. Romer spent 21 years in the Bay Area, mostly as a professor first at Berkeley and then Stanford. While in California, he founded and sold an educational software company. In his research, Mr. Romer uses software as a tool for data exploration and discovery, and he has become an adept Python programmer. “I enjoy the solitary exercise of building things with code,” he said. His son, Geoffrey, is a software engineer at Google. His wife, Caroline Weber, author of “Proust’s Duchess,” a finalist for the Pulitzer Prize in biography, and a professor at Barnard College, is a friend of her Harvard classmate Sheryl Sandberg, Facebook’s chief operating officer. Mr. Romer has never consulted for the big tech companies, but he has friends and former professional colleagues there. “People I like are frequently unhappy with me,” he said. Mr. Romer, who joined the faculty of New York University a decade ago, said that preparing for his Nobel lecture in 2018 prompted him to think about the “progress gap” in America. Progress, he explained, is not just a matter of economic growth, but should also be seen in measures of individual and social well-being. In the United States, Mr. Romer saw worrying trends: a decline in life expectancy; rising “deaths of despair” from suicides and drug overdoses; falling rates of labor participation for adults in their prime working years, from 25 to 54; a growing wealth gap and increasing inequality. Such problems, to be sure, have many causes, but Mr. Romer believes one contributing cause has been an economics profession that belittled the importance of government. His new growth theory recognized that the government played a vital part in scientific and technological progress, but mainly by funding basic research. Looking back, Mr. Romer admits that he was caught up in the “small government bubble” of the time. “I substantially underestimated the role of the government in sustaining progress,” he said. “For real progress, you need both science and government — a government that can say no to things that are bad,” Mr. Romer said. To Mr. Romer, economics is a vehicle for applying the independent rigor of scientific thinking to social challenges. Urban planning, for example. For years, Mr. Romer pushed the idea that new cities of the developing world should be a blend of government design for basics like roads and sanitation, and mostly let markets take care of the rest. During a short stint as chief economist of the World Bank, he had hoped to persuade the bank to back a new city, without success. In the big-tech debate, Mr. Romer notes the influence of progressives like Lina Khan, an antitrust scholar at Columbia Law School and a Democratic nominee to the Federal Trade Commission, who see market power itself as a danger and look at its impact on workers, suppliers and communities. That social welfare perspective is a wider lens that appeals to Mr. Romer and others. “I’m totally on board with Paul on this,” said Rebecca Henderson, an economist and professor at the Harvard Business School. “We have a much broader problem than one that falls within the confines of current antitrust law.” Mr. Romer’s specific contribution is a proposal for a progressive tax on digital ads that would apply mainly to the largest internet companies supported by advertising. Its premise is that social networks like Facebook and Google’s YouTube rely on keeping people on their sites as long as possible by targeting them with attention-grabbing ads and content — a business model that inherently amplifies disinformation, hate speech and polarizing political messages. So that digital ad revenue, Mr. Romer insists, is fair game for taxation. He would like to see the tax nudge the companies away from targeted ads toward a subscription model. But at the least, he said, it would give governments needed tax revenue. In February, Maryland became the first state to pass legislation that embodies Mr. Romer’s digital ad tax concept. Other states including Connecticut and Indiana are considering similar proposals. Industry groups have filed a court challenge to the Maryland law asserting it is an illegal overreach by the state. Mr. Romer says the tax is an economic tool with a political goal. “I really do think the much bigger issue we’re facing is the preservation of democracy,” he said. “This goes way beyond efficiency.” Source link Orbem News #economist #favorite #side #Techs #Thorn

Cyacrual 

Performance, 2020

Documentation from Transmission Online Festival hosted by Lumen, Stockholm: https://www.lumenproject.se/events/transmission

Cyacrual is a circulating address to the rib bones of “AL 288-1” or “Dinkinesh”, one of the oldest known bi-pedal females, also referred to as “Lucy”- named after The Beatles song Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds. 

A fabric version of this ribcage, alongside two different interpretations of a pillar, are sewn onto the shirt that Cara wears in this performance. This design is a scaled down version of a work titled Listening Curtain, a large fabric hanging made in collaboration with artist Susanna Jablonski as part of their ongoing project "Gender of Sound". 

After exploring ASMR-like, brush strokes and folly sounds made via tiny bursts of air blown into the mic, Cara embarks upon an incessant repetition of her own name “Cara” and the name Lucy pronounced backwards - “Ycul”. Her own name is vocalised on the out-breath whilst “Ycul'' is pulled through her mouth ingressively on the in-breath. By perpetually circulating these two names through her body in this way, Cara wishes to acknowledge one of the only equivalences she may be able to share with “Lucy” - that of a given name.

Her impulse is to tame, even drain (if she could) the sound of The Beatles from these bones. She wishes to soothe them with her brush, greet them from within an alternative paradigm of sound-making to the one that they have previously been defined by. A kind of caressive music perhaps, one that seeps out from the tiny cracks within each of their bodies. A music able to explore the potential of sound and listening as a transformative rather than defining entity.
