conversations

With the Cosmic Genome site buzzing this week with the launch of our new series, The Quest For Wonder, we thought we'd celebrate with a Book Shambles special.  Author Jon Ronson joins Robin and Josie to talk about the influences on his own work, Hunter S Thompson, Albert Camus and a whole lot more.

After many requests, I link up with Jesse to talk about expectations of an intelligent black artist, what kind of love he would accept and a documentary he is making with over 200 women.

Christopher Janney's incredible Sonic Forest installation is a joy to encounter. It is composed of 25 eight-foot-tall aluminum “trees” containing audio speakers, lights and photo-electric sensors. As people pass between the “trees”, they trigger melodic and environmental sounds, creating a “sonic forest.”

RHLSTP #8: Stewart Lee. Lee and Herring are back together, but they're old and chilled and less likely to talk about moons and sticks and all the other catchphrases that they used to do that they are now too addled to remember. There's some serious chats about comedy, but also some stupid stuff about being wanked off by the hand of a 100 year old ventriloquist dummy, egg obsessed crows and whether a satirist can accept an honour from the Queen.

Cluub Zarathustra, a 1987 pact about what not to do in comedy, Jerry Springer and the changing status of the character Stewart Lee who is not the same as Stewart Lee also figure. But who smashed the kitchen cupboard doors in Edinburgh 2002? Will we ever know? No.

It's chilled and relaxed and there are no rods of effluent, but I think you might like it. Hope so.
