About this listen

Alec and Nick revisit an unreleased podcast from the archive, recorded one year ago, discussing the concept and experience of Turning Up. The episode reprises the idea of the Dionysian in terms of consumption of music, ideas, substances and social activity as these mingle within the interior life and institutional forms of attending, listening, partying, producing and performing. The conversation asks questions about the utility of lit music events, fleeting public sounds, the script of turning up, uncoordinated and novel excitements, and the Apollonian state of Turning Down. Topics include MoMA PS1's Warm Up summer series, turning up in experimental music, and an extended discussion of the tension between aesthetic excitation and the pursuit of truth-value in Callahan and Witscher's "Think Differently" album and 2024 release show.
