Film Review: Kill Your Idols & Kill Your Idols more. (DVD version, 2006- REVIEW BY DINA HORNREICH)
Tumblr media
When people think of downtown New York City punk, they typically suggest cultural innovators in the traditions of Lester Bangs (Psychotic Reactions and Carburetor Dung) and Clinton Heylin (From the Velvets to the Voidoids) and Legs McNeil (Please Kill Me). And, accordingly, I recall how I said this same kind of thing before <https://www.tumblr.com/daggerzine/761683059377651712/film-review-its-only-life-after-all-an-indigo?source=share> but…if you can think about it this way:
Punk was best described as an attitude, according to Don Letts’ 2005 film (Punk: Attitude).
Punk Rockers are then considered the n*ggers of Rock ‘n Roll, according Patti Smith’s song from her 1978 Easter album; and it features Iggy Pop & The Stooges, Lou Reed & The Velvet Underground, The Ramones, and (of course) Sex Pistols’ mastermind Malcolm McLaren.
Glam Rock challenged the boundaries of masculinity and femininity via David Bowie, The New York Dolls, and other (mostly) “dudes in drag” styled outfits.
No Wave is a different extrapolation of punk efforts affecting Sonic Youth, Lydia Lunch, and other offshoots that deconstructed and reassembled sound to further challenge conventional structures.
Then the film, Kill Your Idols (and the bonus feature of “Kill Your Idols more”) further carries this lineage as an oblique homage to Thurston Moore’s influential significance to the downtown NYC art/music scene with his band Sonic Youth. It portrays the late 70s/80s No Wave Scene as a kind of deconstructed, minimalist, “subterranean radicalism” with its overall ironic kind of anti-cultural revolution which seems more authentically downtown NYC in comparison with CBCG’s and other kinds of more “blues-inflected” energetic expressions of punk music (but still a kind of mental medicine for those marginalized).
No Wave realigned the basic musical structures and other components as it pulled from a pool of desperate, dirty, impoverished innovators who make Patti Smith and Talking Heads look relatively slick and commercial given their rebranding as “New Wave” <https://daysofpunk.com/25/2022/fashion/blog/tina-weymouth-and-chris-frantz-share-the-origins-of-new-wave>. 
Escaping the climate of the Vietnam War era with its concomitant absurdity and injustice meant there was nowhere else for them to go! CBGBs bands like The Ramones, Television, Patti Smith (and also predecessors like David Bowie and New York Dolls) contrast strikingly with the “anti-rockstars” in this film: Lydia Lunch & Teenage Jesus + Jerks, Glenn Branca & Theoretical Girls, Arto Lindsay & DNA, Mars, The Contortions, Michael Gira & Swans. Many of whom were first documented by Brian Eno’s “No New York” compilation and then the  later reissues by DJ Dan Selzer’s record label <http://acuterecords.com/>
Sonic Youth and No Wave come across like a bunch of oblique art school kids yearning for an outlet that didn’t yet exist (so they created one)! Given the substantial amount of Thurston Moore & Lee Ranaldo footage, the film’s content is unassailable as a testimony to their status as reluctant spokespersons of the most deplorable segments of New York City given how their legacy invokes a voluminous sound “so loud your bones stood in pain” sentiment.  At the same time, it also embodies a shared approach for “healthier” expressions of “distilled rage” in a world surrounded by drag queens, drug addicts, and other people whom nobody ever really cared about.
If we think about how the 70s & 80s had CBGBs venue as a cultural center, then the 90s & 00s+ clearly had Other Music <https://daggerzine.tumblr.com/post/616377357004161024/other-music-documentary-2019-directed-by-puloma> record store as another equal (but different) kind of cultural center. What does this suggest for the vital heritage that so many downtown NYC cultural innovators offered as we strive to realign now in the post-COVID era simply wanting to balance everything out after all these sex and gender revolutions? Especially when we consider how these efforts are also documented in The Sex Revolts <https://www.robertchristgau.com/xg/bkrev/sexrevol-nyt.php> by Simon Reynolds and Joy Press <https://sexrevoltsinfohype.blogspot.com/> which was later revisited under the subheading “Post Punk” with “Rip it up and Start Again” <https://ripitupandstartagainbysimonreynolds.blogspot.com/>.
The second major aspect of this “Kill Your Idols” theme is suggested by content from Lizzy Goodman’s “Meet Me in the Bathroom: Rebirth and Rock and Roll in New York City 2001–2011” < https://www.bbc.com/news/entertainment-arts-49687058> which again coexists readily with the efforts of NY Happenings’ Dan Selzer <http://acuterecords.com/> and allows us to fast forward to a nostalgic New York cynical “post-modernist” revival starring some Brooklyn-based nerds (and other weirdos) who were struggling to find an outlet in aftermath of 9/11 as we are witnessing another iteration of interesting bands in the film: Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Liars, ARE Weapons, Gogol Bordello, flux information sciences, etc. (There are no forms of idol worshipping or killing, whatsoever; not to worry!)
These are people who clearly reinterpreted “script” of NYC downtown culture as a quasi-intellectual homage to the Sonic Youth legacy at the time (without even mentioning Nirvana or Dinosaur Jr. who also clearly had “no choice” in terms of lifestyle or career options < https://www.tumblr.com/daggerzine/759158688609124352/freak-scene-the-story-of-dinosaur-jr-written?source=share>): they needed to make this music and we needed them to make it (but don’t ask them or us why exactly)! And this probably came out around the time of Kim Gordon and Thurston Moore’s divorce which marked a significant event in the history of all this stuff.
Offering us a litany of freaky scenes with clear aesthetic parallels to the original artists from 70s & 80s but a little more “sexy & fashionable” when referred to as New Wave (and thus less authentically grotesque than “No Wave”?) which ironically resembles consumerist artifice (kind of contradictory – but not really) given passage of time and history of the city itself? They seem to offer similar “rationale” for leaving the ‘burbs to the city as Patti Smith and the CBGBs ilk tend to provide. Were they just more overeducated kids with early internet access who elected to start bands rather than going to business school – or just deviants who find themselves on stage performing for kicks? As surprising interest arises from such unintentional formalizations creating more reluctant and overhyped careers for bands like The Strokes or Black Dice, they are ironically dismissed by Lydia Lunch as manufactured “mama’s boys” and otherwise “mushy/soft suburban pop poseurs who just wanna be in The Kinks.” Making it seem like they simply blew up “out of proportion” entirely?
As “bricoleurs” <http://www.papert.org/articles/EpistemologicalPluralism.html> who were experimenting with sonic possibilities and offering other kinds of exploratory antics, there is no unifying aesthetic/genre for marketable conveniences amongst this collection of miserable noisy bands and otherwise self-effacing kinds of “anti-rock stars”!!! The film portrays a substantial cross-generational kind of “retro-futurist” identity clashing which persists despite obvious ironic similarities because of a flawed industry at its outset. Considering both process and product: they describe this formalization metaphorically as standing in a “house of mirrors with a gun trying to shoot at yourself!” Thereby making the commodification of bass, guitar, & drums seem like just another formulaic gimmick (like a “haircut”)! Debate: Art vs. Artifice (again)?!
Are we willing to ponder the absurdist complexities of escalation into “rock stardom” when you never even wanted to be “anti-rockstars” and are otherwise avoiding becoming musicians from the get go? If CBGB’s had Talking Heads & Patti Smith’s successes; then No Wave had a parallel counter-counter cultural scene with Sonic Youth’s & Lydia Lunch’s successes?! (Are these parallels more like blueprints than fingerprints?)
These are artistic forums that deliberately reinvent themselves to avoid becoming commercially palatable entertainment: “If it hurts to hear it, if it hurts to do it… then I must be doing something right” according to Lydia Lunch. Such overt and obvious influences to the originators who can readily spot the inspirational bands and records that newer generations are still catching up with? Because generational gaps are not exclusively defined as movements associated with “music/bands” of chronological iterations? 
As such, the film doesn’t assert those cliché kinds of “this is not your parents’ music” kinds of identity clashes. But it clearly shows how scenes, communities, collectives, etc. are merely based on a shared sense of disparate heterogeneity and the cultural psychoses from desperation, deprivation, and concomitant frustrations. And not dissimilar to the litany of unhappy endings fostered by this time of ongoing cultural crashing which becomes exemplified by many talented folks including the Elephant 6 geniuses: <https://www.tumblr.com/daggerzine/757891971641671680/the-elephant-6-recording-co-documentary-film?source=share>
This approach is simply contrary to the hype and similar attention-seeking tendencies that typically offer the impetus for starting a band since they never wanted to be taken seriously; let alone welcome trying to be held to “payola pandering” standards of media & society for trying to avoid something you never wanted to become? The uber-redundancy of reverting into such performative accusations involving manufactured, trendy, homogenized, gentrified, retro-poseurs forces you to ask what happens when our heroes who reciprocate our respect and admiration as inspirational fodder because they are not even a little jealous of where you’ve taken their ideas or the presumed financial success that is concomitant to that output? This is the same kind of intergenerational irony portrayed in Jim Kohlberg’s “The Music Never Stopped” (2011) which was inspired by the work of Oliver Sacks <https://a.co/d/dg9W5M4>. In other words, as soon as you are able to catch onto it… you simply have no choice but to just let go!

Mastercard lance son nouveau programme de partenariat CBDC pour réunir les principaux acteurs de l'industrie, notamment Ripple (XRP) et Consensys. Mastercard et le programme de partenariat CBDC avec Ripple (XRP) et autres Le géant des paiements, Mastercard, a annoncé le lancement de son nouveau programme de partenariat CBDC, visant à rassembler les principaux acteurs de l'industrie de la monnaie numérique de la banque centrale. En pratique, le premier ensemble de partenaires Mastercard voit la plate-forme CBDC Ripple, Consensys, Fluency, Idemia, Consult Hyperion, Giesecke+Devrient et Fireblocks. Plus précisément, Mastercard a envisagé Ripple (XRP) pour le lancement d'un premier stablecoin émis par le gouvernement national en partenariat avec la République des Palaos, de même que pour travailler sur quatre CBDC pilotes. À cet égard, Raj Dhamodharan, responsable des actifs numériques et Mastercard Blockchain, a annoncé : « Nous croyons au choix de paiement et à l'interopérabilité entre les différents modes de paiement, qui est un élément essentiel d'une économie florissante. Tandis que nous nous tournons vers un avenir axé sur la technologie numérique, il sera essentiel que la valeur détenue en qualité de CBDC soit aussi facile à employer que d'autres formes d'argent. » Non seulement cela, dans son annonce, Mastercard a voulu préciser que son programme ne veut pas émettre ses propres CBDC mais veut aider les banques centrales à les développer "pas en vain", mais en ajoutant quelque chose de précieux à l'économie. En effet, Dhamodharan a également ajouté ce qui suit : «En réunissant les forces, l'expertise approfondie et les diverses capacités de ces partenaires, nous pouvons favoriser l'innovation dans la communauté des banques centrales et dans l'ensemble de la chaîne de valeur des CBDC, à mesure que l'espace continue d'évoluer.» Mastercard reconnaît aussi Ripple (XRP) dans le secteur CBDC Avec un œil sur Ripple (XRP), Mastercard a rejoint les états qui testent récemment sa plateforme dédiée au développement des monnaies numériques des banques centrales. Il s'agit d'une solution crypto proposée par Ripple basée sur XRP Ledger ou XRPL, et qui utilise donc la blockchain proposant des avantages distincts. En plus de l'évolutivité, de la rapidité et de la sécurité, XRPL est aussi en mesure de répondre aux exigences strictes d'une monnaie de banque centrale. Ce mois-ci seulement, des informations ont été divulguées d'après lesquelles Ripple est en négociations avec la Banque centrale de Nouvelle-Zélande pour le développement de sa CBDC. Alors qu'en avril, la Banque centrale du Monténégro (CBCG) était aussi impliquée dans le plan de Ripple. Tandis que Mastercard ne fait que déménager, Ripple est déjà un leader du secteur grâce à tous les projets pilotes utilisant sa plateforme CBDC, lancée en mai dernier dans le but de fournir la solution de bout en bout aux banques et aux gouvernements. La SEC peut demander un appel dans le procès contre la société de cryptographie En ce moment, nous parlons de la nouvelle décision de la juge de district Analisa Torres qui a accordé à la Securities and Exchange Commission (ou SEC) des États-Unis le droit de demander un appel dans son affaire contre Ripple. En pratique, la décision du 13 juillet rendue par Torres, qui prévoit que XRP n'est pas un titre et donc Ripple n'a pas violé les lois sur les valeurs mobilières en offrant XRP, peut désormais être contestée par la SEC. Cela a alourdi le marché baissier des dernières 24 heures que connaît l'ensemble du marché de la cryptographie, le XRP perdant 14 %, contre 7 % pour Bitcoin et 6 % pour Ethereum. En effet, au moment de la rédaction, XRP vaut 0,50 $, mais BTC est aussi tombé à 26 450 $ et ETH à 1 690 $. PDJ Plus de l'auteur

Basic Tips to Keep the Kitchen Clean and Hygienic
Essential tips to keep the kitchen clean and hygienic
Tumblr media
The kitchen is often considered the heart of the home. It is the place where food prepared, so it is of utmost priority to adhere to the best hygiene and cleanliness standards. Health should always be the most prior thing. The basics of keeping a kitchen clean are to ensure that all surfaces are clean. Small changes in your habits like washing hands and dishes regularly can also help you keep your kitchen tidy and hygienic. This reduces the risk of contamination exponentially. The kitchen is one of the busiest rooms in the house. The following tips will help you keep your kitchen clean and sanitized with the minimum effort, especially when you are on a tight schedule.
Here some essential tips for kitchen cleaning:
● Gas Stove: A gas stove is the most used equipment in the kitchen, so naturally most prone to get dirty. It can become a breeding ground for many infections and dangerous microorganisms. So it is essential to clean the gas stoves after every meal you cook with detergent and water.
● Counters and slabs: Kitchen counters and slabs are where most kitchen ingredients are kept, including vegetables and fruits, so the surface should always be clean to avoid contamination while preparing a meal. Cleaning the slabs with disinfectants is the best way to keep them sanitized.
● Vegetables and fruits: The kitchen and the food we eat should be clean and of the best quality. It is essential to clean the vegetables thoroughly before having them. Also, having seasonal fruits and vegetables is advisable
● utensils: A necessary subset of food safety is the utensils and the containers in which the food stored. All the containers and utensils which come in contact with food should appropriately be cleaned. The utensils should be washed every day with soap or a detergent to get rid of any germs, and they should be dried before use.
● Equipment: Refrigerators, mixtures, microwaves, ovens and many more. These are some of the equipment found in a typical kitchen. Your food somehow ends up in one of these pieces of equipment, so they must be cleaned every day and sanitized properly and dried before using.
Cleaning can become tedious and hectic, so here are some kitchen hacks which will help you keep your kitchen sparkling:
● Trash: your disposal should always be empty and never smell bad. Few things in the kitchen can be foul and disturb your mood, and a dirty trash can is one of those things. To get rid of those smells, you can use rock salt, lemon ice cubes and water.
● Oven cleaning: Make a homemade solution of water vinegar and baking soda, remove the grates and the coat of the oven along with the heating element, close the door of the oven and let it rest for twelve hours. Next morning clean the solution using a sponge and water, dry the range, and your oven is ready to be used and is cleaned.
● Cabinets: A great hack to clean all the kitchen cabinets use the regular vacuum cleaner you use at your home. Vacuum all the cabinets to get rid of all the dirt in the cupboards.
● Disposal guard: Many food remnants can hinder the disposal guard; to get rid of those food remnants, you can use an old toothbrush. Take the old toothbrush and soak it in an anti-grease solution and turn the flap inside out. Move the brush to scrub off any food waste.
● Steamer: A steamer is used to de-wrinkle your clothes; you must be wondering what it is doing in a kitchen cleaning tip. You can use a steamer to clean up the stovetops, cabinet doors and all of the kitchen if they are grimy.
● Hand washed dishes: When you hand wash dishes, it is of utmost importance that they are adequately dried. Otherwise, they get some stains, so to prevent those stains, you can use the dishwasher trays to dry up the hand-washed dishes, and they can be dried pretty quickly.
● Treating Hard water: If you live in an area with a lot of hard water, you know the struggle to wash dishes as it leaves back stains. To get rid of those stains, you can use vinegar while washing your words in the dishwasher. The vinegar will help you combat the hard water, and you will have shiny plates.
These are some quick and good hacks for kitchen cleaning, which you might want to use the next time to get a sparkling kitchen.
Cleaning your kitchen every day can become a very hectic task, and as a result.

Storia Di Musica #95 - The Runaways, The Runaways, 1976
Se pensate che il rock non sia anche una questione di ragazzine, fermatevi a leggere la storia di oggi. Tutto inizia nella Los Angeles del 1975, ad un party organizzato da Alice Cooper. Star della festa non è istrionico cantante ma una tredicenne scrittrice di brevi novelle-canzoni a sfondo sessuale: Kari Krome. A quella festa c’era anche Kim Fowley, artista, musicista e produttore discografico che era alla ricerca di un nuovo progetto sensazionale (parole sue): pensa che si poteva costruire un gruppo rock di sole donne (o meglio ragazze...). Fowley si accorge che la Krome è troppo giovane per diventare una rock leader band e per questo recluta Joan Jett (chitarra e voce), Sandy West (alla batteria) e Mickie Steele: come trio durano pochissimo dato che quest’ultima abbandona dopo poche settimane (e diventerà abbastanza famosa con le Bangles). Fowley però scova due altre giovani rocker: Lita Ford, l’unica che davvero sappia suonare un po la chitarra’, Cherie Currie e Jackie Fox, che entrata come chitarrista e accortasi che la Ford è più brava di lei verrà spostata al basso. Inizia così la storia del quintetto classico delle The Runaways. Fowley è uno che sa vendere bene la sua idea e la Mercury le mette sotto contratto dopo pochissimo, e nel 1976 arriva il primo album: The Runaways. Prodotto dallo stesso Fowley, che di fatto è il Pigmalione di tutta la baracca, l’album nonostante la band godesse di un certo interesse (anche per i live che Fowley organizza come supporto a gruppi come i Cheap Thrills, Van Halen, persino i Talking Heads) passa piuttosto inosservato nelle classifiche, ma retrospettivamente ha un suono ed un senso niente male. Il disco ha lo spirito “amatoriale” del primo punk (tecnica approssimativa ma forza e sentimento altissimi) ed ammicca nei suoni e negli arrangiamenti ad una versione edulcorata e giovanile dell’hard rock imperante all’epoca. In copertina il primo piano, ammiccante, di Cherie Currie, in pieno stile sex & fun, sebbene all’epoca avesse solo 16 anni. Il disco si apre con il loro più grande successo, Cherry Bomb, che è perfettamente proto-punk. I brani vengono cantati da Currie e da Joan Jett, mentre Fowley si accorge che la Fox al basso è molto scostante e la fa sostituire nelle registrazioni da Nigel Harrison, che poi diventerà il bassista dei Blondie. I brani sono semplici e orecchiabili, e nonostante giochino tutti sull’effetto di 4 sedicenni che parlano di sesso e rock’n’roll, hanno una linea coerente e niente affatto “vecchia” come altra musica del periodo. Da ricordare, oltre gli assoli di Lita Ford, Dead End Justice, You Drive Me Wild e due brani con composizioni di Kari Krome: Thunder e Secrets. Nell’album c’è anche una cover di Rock‘n’Roll dei leggendari Velvet Underground di Lou Reed. Il successo è ancora mediocre, nonostante la band continui una notevole attività live. Nel 1977 esce Queens Of Noise, che musicalmente è molto più curato, ma ha perso quella freschezza del primo: però sono tra i primi gruppi ad esibirsi al leggendario CBCG’s di New York dell’era punk. Non si sa come, la band ha un grande successo in Giappone, dove sia The Runaways che Queens Of Noise sono dischi d’oro: ecco allora il live di una serie di concerti giapponesi racchiusi nel Live In Japan (1977) ennesimo disco d’oro: però a metà del tour giapponese la Fox viene rispedita a casa e sostituita da Vickie Blue. Dopo poco Cherie Currie abbandona la band ed intraprende una carriera solista e cinematografica ( reciterà nel film A Donne Con Gli Amici di Adrian Lyne con Jodie Foster nel 1980). La band inizierà sempre di più a sfaldarsi e deciderà di dare l’addio alle scene con un concerto nella notte di Capodanno a San Francisco nel 1978. L’interesse retrospettivo per la band si deve al film The Runaways, con Kristen Steward nel panni di Joann Jett e Dakota Fanning in quelli di Cherie Currie, uscito nel 2010, che ripercorre la storia della band. Nel frattempo Cherry Bomb fu inserita in una speciale classifica di VH1 tra i 100 brani hard rock più belli di sempre. Rimangono un piccolo pezzetto di storia rock, in un periodo in bilico tra la provocazione (l’estica glam, tanto amata dalla Currie che si ispirava chiaramente a David Bowie), l’esuberanza dei giovani, che in parte sfocierà nel punk e le prime e precise architetture promozionali: ad ogni modo, sono state delle pioniere.
