Many Free Minds: 2009

Sunday, September 13, 2009

Hip hop has always needed dialogue to explain the implications and meaning of its lyrics. Michael Eric Dyson does well at summing up and discussing the Hip Hop State of the Union. In spite of changing trends, both in the music industry and among the intelligentsia, Dyson has always supported and interpreted this art that bloomed unwatered, and in many cases, unwanted from our inner cities. For those who wondered what all the fuss is about in hip hop, Dyson’s bracing and brilliant book breaks it all down.

The Idea of Time is Vanishing

Remember a little thing called the space-time continuum? Well what if the time part of the equation was literally running out? New evidence is suggesting that time is slowly disappearing from our universe, and will one day vanish completely. This radical new theory may explain a cosmological mystery that has baffled scientists for years.

Career Of A Dying Breed

Jay Z has reached a level of stardom and complexity no other rapper could reach. He is the voice of a generation of hopeful, imaginative and ambitious young men. I really appreciated this Rhapsody Commercial.

The Return

Citizens of The Universe, Enlightened Minds
I must apologize for my extended vacation.
Many Free Minds will be back in full swing with more interesting and thought provoking entries for your digest. I have taken this hiatus to center myself in good company, music, art and ideas that need to be shared.

Creativity is a gift few have.
Motivation is a tool many fail to use.
Art is an experience we all can enjoy.

Retna

Retna was born in Los Angeles, California in 1979. Since first creating a name for himself in the early 1990s, Retna has become an "eternal broadcaster" of sorts, shining a light to the kinetic urban soul of Los Angeles. His work merges photography with graffiti style and paint, time with color, couture with street culture, the spiritual with the sensual, and fluidity with grit. Whether his paintings hang in a gallery or wall on the streets of Los Angeles, they serve as a retina through which we view the urban journal of contemporary art.

Our Solar System Is Common In The Universe

Earlier this year, a team of international astronomers discovered a solar system nearly 5,000 light years away containing scaled-down versions of Jupiter and Saturn. Their findings suggest that our galaxy could conceivably contain many star systems similar to our own.

The Network Does Not Want To See Negros On TV, Unless They Are Buffoons

Bamboozled was a satire comedy directed by spike lee. The parallels drawn between what we accept as entertainment / art and what we accept as ignorant portrayals are abundant in this film. Very strong and funny film. Don`t Believe That Hype

The Thing That Has Come From Nothing

Every painting needs to have had a painter, and every building needs to have had a builder.
Every thing for which there is no known maker, needs to have been made by something.
Maybe, thousands of years ago, a conversation like this took place... and brought theism into the world. I wonder if the dogmatism came along as quickly as in THIS example?
