Hung up

I had fish and salad with Aiden and then we taped A short hung up about Fans photos and fucking on TV

We know that we got the name of that show wrong

Back together at last, the hung up guys finally come down on one side of the AI debate. Also Blade Runner, Tokyo, Cape Town, the increasingly atomised culture, city scales and so on...

Google "third space" if that didn't make sense

Max Easton (Barely Human, Romance, The Magpie Wing, Wests Magpies the actual football club) sat down with us to discuss his 2021 book The Magpie Wing. We examine his characters Walt and Helen, talk footy, talk sydney music past and present, talk it all over for over an hour. Stay til the end to hear Max's shocking take on Nick Cave (Leading question).

Long meandering chat about art, poetry, audience, cinema, TNs (again).

Readings from Jessica Rose Pearson's new collection, Yearning at The Opera House

We use some cheesy hype-art accounts to springboard into a discussion about: What are the most interesting questions to ask about an artwork? and how do casual audiences versus in-the-know people experience discomfort when seeing art? Etc..

Penelope Umbrico's 2006 work involving flickr sunsets

http://www.penelopeumbrico.net/index.php/project/suns-from-sunsets-from-flickr/

We hit up Our Neon Foe to see Carpet Diem by Raquel Caballero, and Blowing Eggs at Prop gallery by Carla Cescon and Elise Harmsen. Both Street-facing galleries on busy roads ripe for gentrification.

We also have our first encounter with a man named Sam Cooper who I think we'll be seeing a lot more in the future... stick around to find out what that means

Welcome to hung up season 4. This year we're moving away from specific works, and onto more macro themes around art and life. Expect more interviews and swear words.

Today we're talking:

Gummo and The Gleaners & I

Klubo fundraiser

The balloon

Aiden’s EU moment

anti-work

Matt's 1 week romance story (date formula)

...and more!
