CAFFEEN! playlist for 2014-04-05: “Round and Round”

CAFFEEN! playlist for 2014-03-29: “Wintermore”
Is it possible that, just this once, Winter never actually ends? Can we life with that? It certainly has gone on too long for most, and we all feel the opposite of Stockhausen Syndrome: we do not sympathize with our captors, we want them abolished from existence…

CAFFEEN! playlist for 2014-03-22: “Synthetic”
Not since the invention of plastic can we truly ever say that all things around us are authentic, and the further invention of electronics has now disassembled the remainder of things into bytes instead of atoms.

The Lunchbox: Interview with Stephen Hero
Music is open to all — or at least, that’s how we see it these days. It wasn’t always the case in hiphop, but rappers like Eminem inspired a generation to say “that’s like me, I can do that”, just like the original hiphop itself widened the world of so many young men and women.
One of these inspired young men is working on a project called Stephen Hero. It’s working class hiphop, but not reduced in flow, spirit or energy. He sat down with Tim & I to talk about his inspirations for hiphop, the Stephen Hero project, and about surprising music from Columbia House or his dad’s compilation obsession.
Stephen Hero is currently working on his first EP — two of the songs featured in this episode are previews from that EP — and will be having a video debut on FrederictonLocals.com on Monday, as well as a show next Thursday night at the Capital in Fredericton. Check out his music on BandCamp (among other places).

CAFFEEN! playlist for 2014-02-22: “Word Prey”
The structure of our universe is based on the words we used to describe it. Sometimes, it is necessary to hunt and kill the words, to take them into our souls by devouring them and they become one with our vision, one with our description.
Or sometimes, we just need a good pun..

The Lunchbox: Rossum’s Universal Robots
The play Rossum’s Universal Robots (RUR) is nearly a century old, but its cautionary vision still rings true to this very day. A new production of RUR is being staged at Memorial Hall from April 9th through 12th, with a preview performance on April 8. Director and professor Len Falkenstein joined me along with two of the actresses of the play, Jennifer Murray (who plays Helena) and Melissa Leblanc (who plays Emma) to talk about updating the play, the impact of the play today, and the experience of acting.

The Lunchbox: Jeff Richardson & Jessica Hughes of United Way
There are a lot of great volunteer and non-profit organizations which create opportunities and solve problems within the community. Sometimes, however, problems are bigger than any single organization, or more accurately, the solutions to some problems isn’t just in one area, but in several at the same time.
In times like those, it is organizations like United Way who bring individuals and groups together to tackle these challenge. Jeff Richardson and Jessica Hughes from United Way Central of New Brunswick dropped by to talk about the challenges and successes of their initiatives which gather multiple partners together to build great solutions.
