Laurel Halo @ Nowadays, NYC (05-06-23)

Words by Mischa (aka Dimly) about their sonic memory: 

"When I was four years old my parents’ friends brought their six-year-old nephew to a church potluck. He and I played together for a few hours in the church gymnasium. This was the first and only time we met. While we played together I felt an emotion I have never experienced again, and have never been able to explain well with words. A very rough approximation of the emotion would be to think of all the people you have ever been close with whom you will never speak to again. Take the way that thought makes you feel with the feeling of being lovesick, or the kind of crush that makes your sternum ache.

For most of my childhood my greatest fear was becoming close to someone and then never seeing them again. I think this was the first time it ever happened to me.


My memory of this emotion is one of my strongest memories, still visceral  when summoned. I have wondered ever since if I will feel it again, and quietly kept one eye on my heart.



I also wonder if recalling the memory of this emotion so many times has completely altered the memory from the original experience, so that at this point I am waiting to feel again something I never actually felt. 


This mix is an attempt to describe an emotion I can’t describe well with words. It is also an attempt to record my current recollection of this emotion; a memento for future comparison."

ACFM Microdose: The Communist Manifesto

The concept of debt is as slippery as it is powerful. In this Trip episode, Keir, Nadia and Jem explain why debt is more like a belief than a calculation, and wonder how to imagine a society without it. 

From credit cards to dowries, they discuss the reality and fantasy of debt, with ideas from David Graeber and Deleuze and music from Crass and Gwen Guthrie.

ACFM Trip 49: Debt

The gang convene for a milestone 50th Trip episode all about acid – as a drug, a music genre, a political concept, a mental tool and a thought corrosive. Nadia, Keir and Jem look back on six years of the podcast to decide if ‘acid’ is still a useful way of thinking about leftwing politics.

With music from Tricky, Pink Floyd and Phuture, they discuss anticapitalism, Acid Corbynism, Rimbaud, acid rock, Terence McKenna, mind-body dualism and plain old LSD.

ACFM Trip 50: Fifty Shades of Acid

How does a teenage goodie-two-shoes grow up to be a convicted criminal? On Committed, a new four-part series from Novara Media, we go behind bars to find out why dozens of young climate activists are risking prison for what they believe in – and why Britain's courts are sending more of them to jail for longer. 

Committed begins on 22 April in the Novara Media podcast feed.

Committed: A New Series Out Now

In episode one of Committed, Clare and Rivkah meet imprisoned Just Stop Oil activists who took direct action against the climate crisis and faced dire consequences.

By blocking roads, climbing bridges and throwing soup at paintings, they made headlines – and became national hate figures in the process. We find out how four ordinary young people ended up as convicted criminals, at the sharp end of the government’s crackdown on protest.

Episode 2 coming on 24 April.

1. What Kind of Person Goes to Prison for Their Politics?

Locked in their cells for up to 22 hours a day, how are Britain’s jailed climate activists coping with a life of inaction? In episode two of Committed, Rivkah and Clare follow the Just Stop Oil inmates to find out how they’re adjusting. How does JSO prepare activists for incarceration? What’s it really like inside Britain’s prisons? And what do the guards and other inmates think of Just Stop Oil activists’ crimes?

Episode 3 coming on 29 April.
