Happy Birthday, Carl Jung! Hadron the Collider at the Trash Bar, July 26 at 8PM

Sunday, July 25th, 2010

“Knowledge rests not upon truth alone, but upon error also” – Carl Jung said that.

He also said a bunch of other stuff and he did things like developing dream analysis, laying the foundational framework for Alcoholics Anonymous and being born on July 26, in 1875.

Come join Hadron the Collider as we perform our set in pure “Jungian Style” tomorrow night at the Trash Bar in Williamsburg, Brooklyn.

It will be insightful!

Hadron the Collider Plays the Make Music New York Festival on Monday!

Saturday, June 19th, 2010

We were very excited to be chosen to take part in this annual event.  Make Music New York is a one day music festival that… well, let’s let the New Yorker describe it:

“An eleven-hour escapade of musical creativity.” – The New Yorker

From the Make Music New York website:

“Make Music New York is a live, free musical celebration across the city that takes place each June 21 — the longest day of the year.

On that day, hundreds of public spaces throughout the five boroughs — sidewalks, parks, community gardens, and more — become impromptu stages for over 1,000 free concerts. Musicians of all ages, creeds, and musical persuasions perform for new audiences, who come out from under their headphones to hear unfamiliar groups risk-free on the first day of summer.”

If you are out and about in Greenpoint on Monday, June 21st at 6PM, come over the McGolrick park to listen to Hadron the Collider and other great bands play for fun and to celebrate the first day of summer!

Principals of New Media (and our Education System)… So Far

Tuesday, April 6th, 2010

My wife teaches at a Harlem high school.  I’m constantly amazed when she brings home poster boards and overhead projector transparencies that she uses in her lessons to educate high school students.  Chalk?  Do teachers really still use chalk?  Should they be still using chalk?  I’m not belittling her profession or the financial limits her industry is restricted by but if we continue to educate our children in this manner we shouldn’t be surprised that we are graduating unprepared young adults into the private sector.   We will only ever get what we are willing to pay for.

Old Media Sucking Up to New Media

Sunday, April 4th, 2010

It’s interesting that in only a few short years the “Old Media vs. New Media” debate has already become a tired old trope of web hacks and cable news talk shows.  “The newspapers are dying, magazines are disappearing and Web 2.o is killing journalism,” come the cries of the print and television citizenry.  The “debate” tends to focus on a perceived contrast between one form of media and the other.  It presents a dichotomy that quite frankly, does not exists.  There is no Old Media vs. New Media bifurcation.  There’s only overlap and adoption, and a sort of Hegelian media dialectic.  Who among us only uses New Media and not Old?  Hell, even I just had to grab my hardback copy of Roget’s Thesaurus when dictionary.com failed to pull up another word for ‘dichotomy’.
