In the immediate aftermath of the devastating attacks in Paris, the Red Bull Music Academy and two of its lecture guests, Jean-Michel Jarre and Laurie Anderson, decided to sit down on the couch to discuss music and its role in uncertain times. Having been friends and collaborators for decades, Jarre and Anderson's understanding of each others' work and ideas weaves this lecture together: with realism, wisdom and humor.
TOPICS:
12:35 - Vibrating air
23:00 - Universal vs international
39:15 - Sculpting with sound
42:15 - 3D Audio
48:10 - Music for hospitals
53:49 - Concert for dogs
Although they sit on the couch casually, and as equals, Jarre and Anderson have had globally acclaimed careers that have spanned music, art and performance since the 1970s. When you look at the current landscape of live electronic music performance, everyone from EDM superstars to underground techno DJs owe a huge debt to how Jarre visualized and performed classic albums such as Oxygène and Équinoxe to millions of people. Today, Jarre continues to innovate new ways of composing and performing electronic music with rapidly developing visual technologies: a subject he delves into in this lecture.
Anderson has always had a lot of fun playing with people’s perceptions of what a music piece could be. Originally a sculptor before she started crafting her unique soundscapes, her calm, syncopated delivery conjures all manner of tripped-out dream imagery - evocative and vague enough to qualify as fully-blown artistic statements. Widely influential for her use of early samplers and invented electronic instruments, Anderson has collaborated with Brian Eno, Andy Kaufman and late husband Lou Reed - dancing her own path through art and music with a sense of wonder for life and nature.

There are only some beautiful words for these two: I have always loved the both and I always will...high standard, deep, sweet and ultra 'warm' people.

I wish I could let Laurie Anderson know how much her music has meant to me. Especially in my older years. Beautiful expression and I know her stories are not necessarily my own but that is really not the point.

+greg killmaster oo wait, that is the point. Love what she says about Brian Eno getting excited when there is a problem. An opportunity to change the way you think!

+greg killmaster O superman gave me a new life. On the highway from Birmingham to Atlanta I heard it on my car radio for the first time and my feeling of comfort from hearing it. That song became my surrogate parent.
