This proves once again how NZ takes America's most trumped-up
regulations and makes them worse.

I know there are geeks in the house who will enjoy Peter
Gutmann's classic story about NZ regulation in the 1990s of
digital munitions, otherwise known as cryptographic keys, or,
my life as a Kiwi arms courier.

 They won't let you waiver - music is music to mcps/prs etc and they do
 close people down for it.

 This is a New Zealand site remember, so it's controlled by local
 organisation RIANZ not any American organisation. I'm guessing their fees
 are equally prohibitive though, because *no-one* offers podcasts or even
 streaming archived shows here unless they consist purely of talk.

So I did some snooping and the local situation is this (turned out it was
an organisation called Phonographic Performances New Zealand who control
broadcast licenses here):

 PPNZ does not have an existing assignment to blanket licence podcasts at
 the present time. Any broadcaster seeking to make available music on
 demand is required to seek the permission of the individual copyright
 owners concerned.

So it's more or less impossible to archive music radio online from
here!Madness...

BBC do exactly the same thing for podcasts of previously recorded radio
shows.
A podcast is a download, not listened to live, it's not a performance
licence that's required by Radio NZ. UR needs to be able to collect for
the use of their material from the listener, from the downloader. And as
RNZ aren't in the business of selling music, and UR aren't giving it away,
all they can do is make available for downlaod the material that they own
the copyright to, which is the chat, not the music.

 They won't let you waiver - music is music to mcps/prs etc and they

 do close people down for it.

 This is a New Zealand site remember, so it's controlled by local
 organisation RIANZ not any American organisation. I'm guessing their

 fees are equally prohibitive though, because *no-one* offers
 podcasts or even streaming archived shows here unless they consist
 purely of talk.

 So I did some snooping and the local situation is this (turned out it

 was an organisation called Phonographic Performances New Zealand who
 control broadcast licenses here):

 PPNZ does not have an existing assignment to blanket licence
 podcasts at the present time. Any broadcaster seeking to make
 available music on demand is required to seek the permission of the
 individual copyright owners concerned.

 So it's more or less impossible to archive music radio online from
 here!Madness...

 A podcast is a download, not listened to live, it's not a performance
 licence that's required by Radio NZ. UR needs to be able to collect for
 the use of their material from the listener, from the downloader.

You're right Pauley, there is a difference, but as I already mentioned it
seems that no-one can even offer streaming archived shows here (which is
what the BBC offer for all of their music shows). Legally at least.

It seems bizarre that the reason for this should be that the industry have
no mechanism in place. I'm guessing it's just not profitable enough for
them. It makes you wonder though - if none of the record industry
organisations here have the power to grant authorisation for streaming
audio, do any of them have the power to stop anyone from just going ahead
and doing it? And would any one artist or label (especially an independent
one) go the effort and expense of doing anything about it?

Not that I'm suggesting that RNZ should be the ones to push the envelope,
but maybe one of the forward thinking independent stations like the
b.net or George FM could feel out the limits of the law...

 Mr.Mike nailed it on the head with that comment.
Detroit IS landlocked in many ways and for years the
people who live there have screamed for a well working
public transit system. The people who continue to
travel around the world bring back as much cultural
soundbites as they can- but it can only go so far with
out inner-circle political support.

 I remember the excitement when that big company from
Africa was supposed to restore the train station and
put in a super train. It not happening was
disheartening. Seriously, what would it take for a
train from Detroit to Ann Arbor or to Lansing and
Grand Rapids? Perhaps a swallowing of egos, which is a
big price. Or let's just start with a good bus system.
Actually, let's just start with properly plowing ALL
Detroit roads...no matter what street you live on.

 Today a bunch of men in Detroit will decide whether
or not they close an auto plant in Delaware. Yes, it
isn't Michigan but just imagine taking those
unemployed and hiring them to put together a big-three
train...for their bosses to think outside of the box
and FINALLY catch up to the worker-to-boss
philosophies that propel their foreign competitors.
(btw a close family member was one of the lead
white/blue collar mediators for EDS for the Saturn
project whose ideas are based on the Japanese way of
automaking)

 I'm at a point in my life where I'm deciding where to
settle down. I have thought many times about moving
back to Michigan. However the dropping economy (which
started declining over 5 years ago), the poor school
systems and the land wickedness as Mad Mike calls it
what will continue to keep me, and others, from moving
back.More power to the people that stay and continue
to believe in and put their energy to Detroit.

good for him.however it's nothing new.

This is true of a LOT of places in the USA.

Were I live, in Chicago, it's much better compared to Detroit, and I
and many friends are able to live without cars by choice. However,
compared to any decent European transit system, even this good
transit system is horrible. We often get around this by taking taxis,
which people with less income cannot afford (of course, in Detroit
even taxis are almost impossible to get).

The problems with the transit here are numerous: Many locations in the
city inaccessible, or barely accessible. Ridiculously long waits in
locations exposed to the weather (not good in winter weather). Lack of
repair, and when repair/upgrading does get done, it paralyzes the
transit system at certain points. Inability to handle the number of
commuters who ride at peak points. Buses that come extremely late or
not at all. Rising transit costs, coupled with decreasing service...
In my opinion, the lack of good public transit in the US is really
related to something fundamentally wrong with the American value
system and its promotion of individualism at all costs.

Take any great jazz group (for me, the classic groups of Thelonius
Monk, Miles Davis, or John Coltrane) and you will find that the
individuality of the players is expressed in such a way that it
complements the what is being expressed by the group as a whole.
Individual identity only emerges through group interaction - perhaps
such a process could properly be called dialectical.

And in classical/orchestral music, great classical composers might
have heard amazing, totally original music in their heads, but getting
the music performed required convincing some hapless musicians that
the music was worth learning and performing.

Only with electronic music, is it possible to get rid of the group and
create without consideration for others. This is probably a double
edged sword. I'm glad I can make my own CD with only a cheap $50
computer, especially considering I've written a string quartet that
has never been performed, that is just sitting in a box in my closet.
But collective music making is a very rewarding experience, and I
often miss it these days.

Also, there are reasons why I think art, even the kind made by a lone
individual, is NEVER really individualistic, but it gets into the
philosophical nature of language as socially constructed, and the
preconditions of artistic expression, so it's probably better reserved
for something like the microsound list.

Suffice it to say that anyone who releases a CD, obviously imagines
some kind of audience for their music, even if it's an imaginary/ideal
audience. To bring it back to the Mad Mike interview: it would seem
that some of the frustration of the Detroit techno pioneers (including
2nd wave), is precisely in the tremendous gap between the imagined
audience, which includes some significant audience in the
African-American community, and the real audience, which is more or
less European and white. This gap between the imagined audience and
the real audience raises a lot of interesting questions about what how
culture is enjoyed, by who, and why.

Individuality is not as big a deal in other countries/cultures that have
created great music equal to that of America's.
And often you find a lack of privilege and entitlement amongst those
cultures.

RE: (313) mad mike interview link

2007-02-13 Thread Stoddard, Kamal
I agree on the whole with your views on this one tom.

 I'd like to point out, that even though America pushes individualism in
every way, it has contrived some ingenious ways of sneaking conformity
into the mix. It's almost like subgenres to me. You can think you're
being individual by buying the most extreme clothing in dark tones and
wearing shocking makeup and even bones around your neck, but in the
end...you're just being goth. Or nerdy, or preppy, or gangsta, or any of
the other prefabbed individual identities already marketed and concepted
out for you by the corresponding media. Art zines, hip-hop zines, geek
zines. They all come with their own sense of fashion and identity. Some
kind of collective individuality. That's an oxymoron to most thinking
people, but it's what most Americans engage in when they believe they're
expressing their individuality. So that issue is a much more complex one
in America due to the spread and almost ravenous feeding upon/profiting
from of trends and fads. One kid may have been being an individual, but
as soon as he gets a shot in someones blog, there's the rest coming to
sign up. I'd even say, that save for the few visionaries, individualism
is almost non-existent in America. I mean people still vote based on who
they think will get the most votes (as opposed to who they believe
in)and will openly say so in front of cameras. As someone said recently
:)The situation is grey.

Wouldn't have thought you believed that from some of the arguments you've

Anyway, socialism has never had much of a chance here with The Red Scare,
Better Dead than Red and all that 1940s b.s.
Socialism has developed in other countries and in some it actually does
alright.

 the argument also oversimplified the reason cars are so popular here.
 we live in a much more spread out landmass than all of europe.

That occurred after WW2.  Look at all the eastern New England cities.  They
are built and developed like European cities (hence the name).
All of our problems that we contend with today in regard to transportation
arose after WW2.  Cities lost cable cars and installed buses, highways were
built across country and train services decreased while air travel
increased. Oil/petroleum pretty much sums it up.
Detroit's industry was a cause of it and Detroit was a product of it and
has suffered because of it.
Why would any of the big 3 auto makers support public transport in Detroit?

I suggest this great book on the subject
Private Pleasure, Public Plight: American Metropolitan Community Life in
Comparative Perspective - David Popenoe
A social and cultural analysis of community life in metropolitan areas of
the USA, Sweden and England. The author focuses on how environment and
culture interact to shape human behavior. Despite their similarities, the
three societies vary widely, offering opportunities to compare and
contrast.

 its
 definitely MORE convenient to have people moving about in a small
 space in as efficient manner as possible. here, with so many possible

 Hey Dimitri, how've you been?  Its been ages since my last email to you via
 myspace.  I've been so busy, but now a few slow days has resulted in time to
 write endless hyperreal books...  lol

I'm fine, glad to see you writing 'hyperreal' books again ... he he


 Thanks for the info about who the makers of the video are, I will follow up.

Yeah, I think their job desserves attention since it looks pointed on right
things and freshly done. These kinds of things can only help the whole
eletronic scene;

 As for the info about the meaning of high tech, its agreed and understood
 that high tech is associated with the music they create, but in the context
 of what he was referring to, I believe you have misunderstood his meaning.

Hmm error from my side, I've explained the term ' High Tech ' from a pure
records and dj point of view out of the context of the video. Thinking that
'somewhere' only 'those who know' could understand all the meaning behind.
I think you are from those who know, no problem on this question, I've just
replyed too quickly from the dj point of view.

 High tech has been used so often in association with records, that I can
 understand why you may have understood his statement differently than I.  My
 understanding of it was that he used the term to describe a lifestyle that UR
 lives by. From my experiences with Mike, and as it said in the video, he's an
 avid supporter of his neighborhood, and he really makes an effort to work
 with the kids. Mike typically wont talk music without bringing the
 conversation to talk of contributing to the neighborhood.  He finds the two,
 music and contribution, completely linked, which is probably why he uses the
 term high tech to describe both. At least that is my understanding of it.

It is also and definitely my understanding of it, I just don't use it as a way
to explain if a random electronic music lover I could meet anywhere during any
event/moment ask me why I love so much UR/Detroit and all related artists
music.

I generally reply it's the vibe I feel and it's funky, free to them to discover
more or not. It's their choice, not mine.

 I realise that talk of contributing to the neighborhoods is not necessarily a
 hyperreal list related topic.  I was inspired by the UR video, figured I
 should respect the ethos Mike lives by and try to bring the conversation to
 talk of contributing to neighborhoods.  Especially since so many people on
 this list are avid researchers and music enthusiasts of Detroit, I was
 wondering if anyone has ever found interesting ways to contribute to the
 cities neighborhoods.

Sure, it's not very '313 list' as a subject, but imo it desserves to be
discussing. A lot of peoples on this list, not the top actives ones, but a lot
never visited Detoit. Some would be certainly happy to hear comments and
opinions not writed by journalists who love to expand and re arrange things
like they want them to be, to keep a correct amount of readers, to exite them I
don't know, but to uninform them for sure. With sometimes too much words about
the bad side of Detroit, they help it to stay in the ghetto picture, there is
good things in Detroit,, Submerge being the most beautiful example at some
points.


A bit of an open-ended question, I know, and if
 someone asked me the same thing, I'm not sure how would I respond.  Speaking
 of what I have done and am trying to do would contradict my humble beliefs
 for wanting to contribute.  I personally prefer to be an unrecognized soldier
 in the mix of helping the movement.  I have quite a few stories I'd love to
 share about interesting ways other people have contributed to the city, but
 since I've already written a book, I figure I'll leave the stories for
 another time.

Unknown (or unrecognized) soldiers, it's what most of the supporters are.


 If anyone else has any interesting stories of ways people have contributed to
 the city, I'd love to hear, it may bring a bit of a smile to this dreary
 rainy holiday season.  lol

I guess you'll find easily.

No seriously, it's interesting to discuss about what Detroit peoples are doing
in and around Detroit to reach a better way of life, at least to change the
most bad things related to the city.

Happy with it or not, the city has put a lot of efforts to renovate Dowtown, ok,
I already hear a lot of peoples coming to say yeah but they destructed the old
Motown Building and few other historic ones, they invest only in Downtown, the
SuperBall is the only reason, etc... True but in same time this have a dynamic
and positive action on the Detoit 'view from visitors' who mostly don't care of
the old motown building, who don't come to Detroit since years because it's
still the murder capital in their mind. And there is some who care about the
SuperBall, some of them being truely techno fans or simply who would love to
know more about the city and don't do it just because of the bad reputation.

Detroit was in the top ten of murder city in USA past years and today it's not
anymore the first one... After years at top, it's something appreciable to see
that Detroit is becoming maybe more 'cool'.  Even if it's still very hard, I
agree. there is still cops found dead in the back of supermarkets ...

On a more precise point, about peoples living there, there is teams and
associations of peoples who act right and move things like organising groups
who goes during sunday morning to Cass Corridor ( well know area regarding
drugs, guns, homeless peoples, it's history ...) and try to clean up as they can
the area, sure it's not revolutionnary but they do it and it's already something
better than staying behind tv, there is mountain Bike clubs, there is
photography clubs and meetings, the fall down of the industry is definitely
responsible of the decay, the lot of homeless peoples and criminal things we
know, of course, no job = no money, no money = another way to eat each day. But
in these sad things, a lot of artists and peoples found a benefit or something
to use at their motor to growth and expand ...

I think if UR today is strong, it's because they suffered of this environement,
they found a way to extract the good things from the bad ones and today, they
make a living out of it. It's all positive.

I read/hear a lot of peoples saying it's stupid to create lofts in Downtown or
in another area because there is no one to rent them at this price... Ok, but
with the effort to renovate Detroit done by a lot, each one at his level, why
not count on future moves to Detroit of business owners, even if they creates
jobs for only 2/3 peoples, its again already something.

And it's again a benefit for atists since in place of making music out of the
decay, hardlife, they could work with business owners for their multimedia
promo campaigns, with tv's, radio's, all sound design related jobs for the
business side as well as producing for the art side...

Of course, there is tons of other problems and toubles much more important but
from my position, as I can hear and see from peoples I know, I 'm optimist
regarding the future of this city. There is little actions there and there, an
envy from a lot to live in a better environement, it's relatively fresh, I mean
ten or twenty years ago, this positive thinking was out of question if we relate
to all what we hear about Detroit from medias, artists themselves, various
travellers experiences...

Open to the discusion !

Some would be certainly happy to hear comments and
opinions not writed by journalists who love to expand and re  
arrange things
like they want them to be, to keep a correct amount of readers, to  
exite them I

don't know, but to uninform them for sure.



I hear that a lot but I think it's a terrible generalisation. I think  
you only need to visit blogs and forums online by non media types to  
find a far bit of similar misinformation. It's a human trait. Many  
journalists do strive to be balanced and accurate. I've written for  
many papers and I've never been told to write things in such a way as  
to misrepresent them like that. Also music journalists are among the  
most underpaid in this industry - it's not something you do for  
glamour and power or whatever you may think. ;)

 It's funny that both of you think this is a non-list topic. I think it's
 bang on topic for the list personally and would love to hear more about
 this side of things.

 Better than some of the topics we've had recently, ahem.

 robin...

If we enter this topic, I take my best working keyboard, the one with 
multimedia
options/accessories and little space at bottom to support our tired hands along
a big coffee .. ;-)

No seriously, it's interesting to discuss about what Detroit peoples are doing
in and around Detroit to reach a better way of life, at least to change the
most bad things related to the city.

I'm really happy to hear that people are taking note in the positive things 
that are happening, and I def agree Robin, this topic is more interesting than 
some of the I know more about this topic than you... posts people sometimes 
get carried away with, Ahem. I prefer topics like this, ones that will transfer 
new knowledge about the city whilst pairing it with historical references.  

Happy with it or not, the city has put a lot of efforts to renovate Dowtown, 
ok,
I already hear a lot of peoples coming to say yeah but they destructed the old
Motown Building and few other historic ones, they invest only in Downtown, the
SuperBall is the only reason, etc... True 
 
This actually isnt completely true, even though it may seem so. The mayor has a 
rather interesting vision about the developments of the city.  He's trying to 
change the entire status quo, the industry, the way people survive and make 
money, and most importantly, the way people view the city and its history. Its 
a massive movement he is pushing forward. Yes, he's put a lot of effort into 
the downtown area at the moment, the reason being, is that for years and years, 
the business people of downtown would drive their cars into the parking 
garages, park, walk in the overhead enclosed walkways into their pristine 
offices, work their 9-5, and then walk back to their cars via the overhead 
walkways, and then drive back to the suburbs, where they would spend the money 
they made in Detroit, on goods and restaurants in the suburbs.  The mayor wants 
to change this, so at the 300th anniversary of Detroit, they launched the new 
park, Campus Martius, which is located up the street a bit from Hart Plaza.  
The entire purpose of this park is to be the catalyst for the renovations of 
the city.  7 days a week, 365 days a year, the park implements events that are 
designed to encourage people to form a community. Music, Movies, Art, 
Performances, Dancing, everything you could imagine. All of the programming 
done, as well, encorporates businesses from the outlying areas, trying to show 
people that lots of things happen in the city, even outside of the downtown 
area.  
 
In addition, the park is available for rentals, weddings, techno fest parties, 
and fashion shows. The first two years was a very slow time for this park, not 
a lot of people attended the events, unless it was a special occassion.  But 
through this patience and programming, the park last summer went from having 
1-3 bookings per month, to having more than 6-9per week.  And as expected, the 
city is expanding this change outwards. They are redoing the walkways, building 
additional parks, and encouraging developments by working with the local 
restaurants and shops, even the very small ones, in order to get people, 
outsiders of the city, to know and understand how great a place it is to visit.
 
As for the Super Bowl being the only reason, thats not true, many of these 
renovations had begun prior to the Super Bowl craze.  Its just that the Super 
Bowl kicked into high gear and pushed Detroiter's to finish their renovations 
as quickly as possible.  No wonder, because the city and its citizens made an 
absolute fortune during that time.  Plus it was a chance to show people that 
Detroiter's really know how to put on great entertainment, and not just via 
record sales, but via massive arts events with performance art, and anything 
imaginable really.
 
but in same time this have a dynamic
and positive action on the Detoit 'view from visitors' who mostly don't care of
the old motown building, who don't come to Detroit since years because it's
still the murder capital in their mind. And there is some who care about the
SuperBall, some of them being truely techno fans or simply who would love to
know more about the city and don't do it just because of the bad reputation.

Detroit was in the top ten of murder city in USA past years and today it's not
anymore the first one... 
 
Last I heard, these numbers of murders are on the rise again.  Our favourite 
president Bush implemented a fabulous new law regarding the schools and most of 
the music programmes across the country have been removed in favour of pushing 
the sciences and maths.  Historically, Detroit had some of the strongest school 
music programmes in the country, and this removal has caused a lot of uneasy 
rest

Well, since you ask Jodie, I can suggest that people look at the
brilliant work of The Heidelberg Project.

http://www.urban75.com/Mag/heidel.html

This also neatly dovetails with the idea you mention Jodie, of 'Hi-Tech'
being synonymous with both music *and* community work, seeing as we also
have the music project below with the same name. Also, someone once
explained to me that there was a link, although that escapes me now -
still, I know the name is not just used because it's cool. It's also
quite appropriate that the contribution of the music to the 'real'
project is low-key

Yes, this interview is definitely great, it's done by Slice DVD, correct

For 'High Tech' correct me again if I'm wrong but :

High Tech is defining most of the UR and others Submerge distributions,
a way to
separate UR from the all techno/electro music available on the market.

All Interstellar Fugitives tracks, a lot of Metroplex releases, I would
say all
tracks not 4/4 techno rythm are 'High Tech'.

There is a 'High Tech Funk' logo on a lot of releases, if you own some
cd's/vinyls from Submerge, there is a lot of chances that you'll find it
somewhere on the packaging.

Hope this help, Peace.

Hey Dimitri, how've you been?  Its been ages since my last email to you via 
myspace.  I've been so busy, but now a few slow days has resulted in time to 
write endless hyperreal books...  lol
 
Thanks for the info about who the makers of the video are, I will follow up.  
 
As for the info about the meaning of high tech, its agreed and understood that 
high tech is associated with the music they create, but in the context of 
what he was referring to, I believe you have misunderstood his meaning.  High 
tech has been used so often in association with records, that I can understand 
why you may have understood his statement differently than I.  My understanding 
of it was that he used the term to describe a lifestyle that UR lives by. From 
my experiences with Mike, and as it said in the video, he's an avid supporter 
of his neighborhood, and he really makes an effort to work with the kids. Mike 
typically wont talk music without bringing the conversation to talk of 
contributing to the neighborhood.  He finds the two, music and contribution, 
completely linked, which is probably why he uses the term high tech to 
describe both. At least that is my understanding of it.
 
I realise that talk of contributing to the neighborhoods is not necessarily a 
hyperreal list related topic.  I was inspired by the UR video, figured I should 
respect the ethos Mike lives by and try to bring the conversation to talk of 
contributing to neighborhoods.  Especially since so many people on this list 
are avid researchers and music enthusiasts of Detroit, I was wondering if 
anyone has ever found interesting ways to contribute to the cities 
neighborhoods.  A bit of an open-ended question, I know, and if someone asked 
me the same thing, I'm not sure how would I respond.  Speaking of what I have 
done and am trying to do would contradict my humble beliefs for wanting to 
contribute.  I personally prefer to be an unrecognized soldier in the mix of 
helping the movement.  I have quite a few stories I'd love to share about 
interesting ways other people have contributed to the city, but since I've 
already written a book, I figure I'll leave the stories for another time.  
 
If anyone else has any interesting stories of ways people have contributed to 
the city, I'd love to hear, it may bring a bit of a smile to this dreary rainy 
holiday season.  lol
 
Out for now...
