Steve Lehman & Orchestre National De Jazz — Ex Machina (Pi)
Tumblr media
When you think big, there’s no substitute for resources. Alto saxophonist and composer Steve Lehman’s ideas are typically broad and deep, but Ex Machina is especially massive. The project combines big band jazz, spectral composition, and interactive electronics. Any one of these elements takes study and skill to master, and while Lehman has the instrumental chops and integrative intellect grasp the parts, it takes a lot of time in a well-stocked kitchen to assemble them all into something that isn’t just a lumpy influence stew. requires a lot of time in a well-stocked kitchen.
In order to pull off this project, Lehman collaborated with the Orchestre National de Jazz, a big band funded by the French government. He also involved IRCAM (the Institute for Research and Coordination in Acoustics/Musics) to incorporate electronics that respond to the live musicians in real time. After years of composing and workshopping, Lehman and his long-time American collaborators, trumpeter Jonathan Finlayson and vibraphonist Chris Dingham, joined the orchestra for eight concerts, and then settled into the studio for four days at the beginning of 2023.
The time and resources have not gone to waste. This music feels not only sui generis — the only records it really sounds like are Lehman’s earlier octet recordings — but lived-in. The exchanges between dopplering horn sections and single soloists, and the meshing between orchestrated frequencies and precisely mutating rhythms, is spot-on.
But enough about how impressive it is; what is it? Essentially, it’s a transfer of Lehman’s spectral jazz concept, in which an understanding of frequency relationships yields access to alien sounds and an engagement with rhythm concepts spanning the ages of bebop and hip-hop makes the whole thing swing, to a post-Gil Evans orchestral environment. It has plenty of big brass punch, crips rhythms, and abrupt shifts in velocity and tone, all of which create fertile opportunities for adroit soloists to assert both structure-oriented and emotion-evoking responses. Ex Machina is everything it set out to be. And if you’re looking for a recording that’ll give you new things to hear every time you play it, it is without peers.

Movie Review: Friday the 13th 3D (1982)
Letterbox link: 3 1/2 stars Caught a continuity error this time: The hammock bed, during sex has a homemade quilt, after the shower has a fur blanket. Whoops. Now I have the first three, my favorites out of the series, as steelbooks. I am a happy 80’s teen.  The age difference in appearance between Rick and Chris has always struck me as so odd. Looks like a teen and her teacher, instead of two…

Hey Marley, it'd be cool if you would drop a list of the masculinity in film books you're reading. No pressure tho!
Oh yeah for sure, lol sorry I have a tendency to default to vagueness when I'm talking about anything outside of fandom.
There's a lot, I went on a spree for a few weeks lol, so this is under a cut
Only one I've read cover to cover so far is Armed Forces: Masculinity and Sexuality in the American War Film - Robert Eberwein which was both interesting and frustrating in that a lot of it was (mildly defensively lol, as a response to a lot of queer film theory) explaining how a lot of homoerotic shit isn't intended to be interpreted as actually gay, but I'm glad I read it because I was specifically trying to understand how contemporary audiences viewed homoerotic shit.
Books I've read at least a chapter of:
Men, Masculinity, and the Media - Steve Craig
Running Scared: Masculinity and the Representation of the Male Body - Peter Lehman
Masculinity: Bodies, Movies, Culture - Peter Lehman
Masculinity and Popular Television - Rebecca Feasey
Buffoon Men: Classic Hollywood Comedians and Queered Masculinity - Scott Balcerzak
Shadows of Doubt: Negotiations of Masculinity in American Genre Films - Barry Keith Grant
Screening the Male: Exploring Masculinities in Hollywood Cinema - Steven Cohan
Laughing Matters: Understanding Film, Television, and Radio Comedy - John Mundy, Glyn White
Laughing Hysterically: American Screen Comedy of the 1950s - Ed Sikov (highly recommend just for the essay on Some Like It Hot)
What Made Pistachio Nuts?: Early Sound Comedy and the Vaudeville Aesthetic - Henry Jenkins
also shoutout to this article
Books I've obtained but haven't looked through yet:
American Cinema of the 1970s: Themes and Variations - Lester D. Friedman
Hollywood Androgyny - Rebecca Bell-Metereau
The New Hollywood: What the Movies Did With the New Freedom of the Seventies - James Bernardoni
Manhood in Hollywood: From Bush to Bush - David Greven
Girls Will Be Boys: Crossdressed Women, Lesbians, and American Cinema - Laura Horak
Hard Bodies: Hollywood Masculinity in the Regan Era - Susan Jeffords
The Remasculinization of America: Gender and the Vietnam War - Susan Jeffords (I've actually read the first Jeffords in uni and parts of the second but they're pretty psychoanalytical so ymmv)
Deviant Eyes, Deviant Bodies: Sexual Re-orientations in Film and Video - Chris Straayer
Masculinity in Fiction and Film: Representing Men in Popular Cultures 1945-2000 - Brian Baker
Masculinity in the Contemporary Romantic Comedy - John Alberti
Out in Culture: Gay, Lesbian and Queer Essays on Popular Culture - Corey K. Creekmur, Alexander Doty
Flaming Classics: Queering the Film Canon - Alexander Doty
Making Things Perfectly Queer: Interpreting Mass Culture - Alexander Doty
Vested Interests: Crossdressing and Cultual Anxiety - Marjorie Garber
Queer Images: A History of Gay and Lesbian Film in America - Harry M. Benshoff
Ghost Faces: Hollywood and Post-Millennial Masculinity - David Greven
Ethereal Queer: Television, Historicity, Desire - Amy Villarejo
Gender Terrains in African Cinema - Dominica Dipio
Masculinity and Monstrosity in Contemporary Hollywood Films - Kirk Combe and Brenda Boyle
Open Secret: Gay Hollywood 1928-1998 - David Ehrenstein
Screened Out: Playing Gay in Hollywood From Edison to Stonewall - Richard Barrios
Hollywood from Vietnam to Regan - Robin Wood
In a Lonely Street: Film Noir, Genre, Masculinity - Frank Krutnik
Unamerican Hollywood: Politics and Film in the Blacklist Era - Frank Krutnik and others

Jonas Cambien’s Maca Conu — Maca Conu (Clean Feed)
Tumblr media
Belgian keyboardist, composer and improviser Jonas Cambien is based in Oslo, Norway. The new ensemble that he introduces on Maca Conu includes names that you’ll surely recognize if you give the contemporary Scandinavian jazz scene much of your attention. As well as being a member of Cambien’s trio, which has recorded three albums for Clean Feed, drummer Andreas Wildhagen is a member of the Andreas Røysum Ensemble and Paal Nilssen-Love’s Large Unit. Alto and tenor saxophonist Signe Emmeluth is also a member of Røysum’s band, as well as a strong solo artist in her own right. And bassist Ingebrigt Håker Flaten, whois a veteran of the Thing, School Days, and countless other associations with the likes of Rodrigo Amado, David Murray and Rob Mazurek, brings encyclopedic experience and unstoppable rhythmic drive.
Given the band’s versatility, it would be a missed opportunity to mine a single sound. Cambien does the opposite, using instrumental doubling and a spinning compositional compass to give each of the album’s nine tracks a singular character. “A Terrible Misunderstanding” opens the record with a Steve Lehman-like staccato attack, with Emmeluth’s alto and Cambien’s  piano darting in and out of its remorseless, mechanistic cadence like hungry birds. On “Question The Answer,” Håker Flaten’s bowed bass and Cambien’s Ace Tone organ conjure a brooding, Alice Coltrane-like vibe, only to have the whole band blow it up with a jittery, free jazz tussle. The leader layers piano and organ over a quick, loping groove on “Holy Fishtail,” melding the sonorities of vintage Ethiopian jazz to the frantic pace of a New York commute. And Håker Flaten switches to Minimoog and Cambien to soprano saxophone on “Pseudoscience,” which suspends high, flickering reed formations over a baleful groove.  
The variety of approach reflects the breadth of Cambien’s experiences. He grew up learning classical piano, and then headed to Norway to immerse himself in jazz. More recently, he’s spent some time in Cairo; in the first half of 2024 he will also appear on a record by The Handover that melds Arabic and improvisational methodologies. But Maca Conu doesn’t feel like a work of gratuitous flexing so much as a celebration of possibility.

[ad_1] Inigo and Diego Ardid sat at a convention desk, checked out an aerial picture of their Ivy and Mint towers in Brickell and mirrored on the darkish days of the Nice Recession. By the point Lehman Brothers went bankrupt in 2008, Key Worldwide, the Ardids' household agency, had offered about half of the 504 condos on the accomplished Ivy and had not completed the inside buildout of the adjoining 530-unit Mint in Brickell. Lending got here to a halt, property values ​​plumbed, and consumers opted out of contracts. “It was an entire collapse of the system,” Inigo stated. “No one wished to shut at that time. Consumers had been like, 'The items are price lower than what I might lose if I simply stroll away from my deposit.' “It was like catching a falling knife.” Key completed Mint and offered out each towers after traders led by Starwood Capital Group purchased the mortgage e book that included the initiatives' debt. “They began to wish to work out the problems with the debtors that had carried out an excellent job,” Inigo stated. “We had constructed the buildings on time, on schedule, on finances.” The initiatives marked Key's debut into large-scale condominium improvement. The technique was textbook Ardid: Seize on a scorching market with sufficient warning to trip out a doable storm. Now the household is poised to make the same play, this time with plans for a 51-story, 750,000-square-foot workplace tower in Brickell. South Florida's workplace market was supercharged from an inflow of companies beginning in late 2020 because of the state's early pandemic reopening and business-friendly local weather. However extra not too long ago, the world has felt a sting from distant work, a rise in sublease availability and a slowdown of lease signings from out-of-state companies. In opposition to this backdrop, Key's undertaking, referred to as 848 Brickell, would face competitors. Three different workplace towers are within the works close by, together with a supertall by Steve Ross' Associated Firms and Swire Properties, and billionaire hedge funder Ken Griffin's Citadel headquarters. 848 Brickell is a undertaking that will propel the agency into the stratosphere of actual property, now crowded by a who's who of builders betting on Brickell. But questions loom over its viability. Tinheritor father's sons Patriarch Jose Ardid did not groom his sons for actual property. However he did elevate them to be go-getters. “You could not be a sofa potato,” Inigo, 47, stated. “Sports activities, being energetic in one thing, being a part of one thing,” Diego, 44, added. “Should you went out on a Friday night time, on Saturday morning there wasn't sleeping in till 2 pm That did not exist.” Jose, now 75, went into actual property in his native Spain, however left the nation within the Seventies due to political and financial uncertainty. He additionally wished to comply with by on his imaginative and prescient for a US enterprise enlargement. In South Florida, Jose constructed up Key with small, risk-averse investments, utilizing largely his personal fairness and backing from household and mates. In 1980, he purchased a low-income condo complicated on Miami Seaside's Venetian Causeway and transformed it to a luxurious 120-unit gated group. A few years later, Jose constructed an eight-story workplace constructing in South Miami, and in Brickell, he purchased a five-story bayfront condo constructing and transformed it right into a 12-unit condominium. Over time he developed a thriving hospitality area of interest throughout Florida and Spain. “Should you did not know Inigo got here from a household enterprise, you'll assume that he wants the subsequent deal to outlive.” Arnaud Karsenti, thirteenth Flooring Investments Inigo and Diego discovered their option to Key Worldwide within the early 2000s. Simply because the agency was ending the 224-room Marriott Stanton South Seaside, Inigo was making an attempt to determine his profession path.
At Jose's suggestion, he put out feelers for Miami Seaside investments and located the event web site for Key's Monte Carlo lodge on Collins Avenue and sixty fifth Road. Diego's first large deal was the 2005 buy and financing of the Eden Roc Miami Seaside lodge. After that, the brothers had been hooked. “While you get an enormous job, it sucks you into the corporate,” Inigo stated. “It is your suggestion, your duty, you're the one which raised the capital, you're the one which presents to the banks, and at that time… you might be tied in,” added Diego. By 2006, Miami was within the midst of a condominium growth. Development cranes dotted the skyline, lending and gross sales flowed, and the brothers received in on the motion. “While you get [pre]you exit, you might be like, 'Wow, I simply offered 500 items.'” Diego stated. “Now we will play in these leagues. We already knew hospitality, and my brother stated, 'If I do know hospitality, why do not we simply do the identical factor on the residential facet?'” Whereas they did survive the bust, the Ardids didn't emerge unscathed. In 2009, they handed again a 1.4-acre lot adjoining to the Ivy and Mint to Ocean Financial institution, which had filed a foreclosures over an $18.5 million land mortgage. ST Residential, the Starwood-led funding group that purchased Ivy and Mint development lender Corus Financial institution's mortgage e book, offered the final debt tranche Key wanted to complete Mint. As a result of ST purchased the loans at a 40 % low cost, it wasn't a problem that some unit closings got here in at lower than pre-recession expectations. “There was a sure quantity we needed to hit for the traders to be completely happy, however that definitely was not par to what it was earlier than the crash,” stated Victor Ballestas, regional director of ST on the time. From then on, Key, which handles its residential gross sales in-house, went large on condos. It accomplished the 98-unit Eden Home in Miami Seaside in 2013, 230-unit 400 Sunny Isles in Sunny Isles Seaside in 2015, Bay Harbor Islands' 38-unit Sereno and Miami's 387-unit 1010 Brickell in 2017 and the pair of Harbor towers with 425 items in North Miami Seaside in 2018. In all, the agency's portfolio holds 10 million sq. toes of condominium and condo actual property throughout over 6,000 items, together with $2 billion of hospitality belongings below administration throughout greater than 3,000 lodge keys, plus business investments. In Florida, Key developed the AC Resort by Marriott Fort Lauderdale Seaside and in Spain, an Solely You lodge in Malaga. The agency not too long ago expanded to Lisbon, Portugal, the place it's renovating a historic palace right into a 116-key Six Senses lodge. Inigo and Diego formally took the lead within the agency's day-to-day operations someday in 2005 or 2006, though Jose stays closely concerned. In recent times, nonetheless, the brothers have turn out to be the highest brass, whereas their father has stayed out of the image — actually. TurnKey Since 2022, the household's media representatives have requested The Actual Deal to exclude Jose's headshot from tales about Key's initiatives, saying he has taken a again seat to his sons. Jose was additionally not current when TRD met along with his sons on the agency's Brickell headquarters. Inigo and Diego say Jose, who at the moment splits his time between South Florida and Spain, weighs in on main strategic selections and comes into the workplace a few instances every week when he is on the town. “Each new acquisition we talk about [with Jose]“Diego stated. “Or in the course of the architect choice and once we are discovering initiatives. … Or any sale of an asset.” “Yesterday, we mentioned the workplace tower [848 Brickell] with him as a result of he was within the workplace all day, and two new acquisitions,” Inigo added. Over the previous 15 years, as Key's portfolio grew and the agency turned extra capitalized, it additionally expanded its partnership pool.
Final yr, it accomplished the 32-unit Boca Seaside Residences condominium in Boca Raton, which had a sellout of $156 million. Miami-based Integra Investments and West Palm Seaside-based Wexford Actual Property Traders partnered with Key on the undertaking. And in partnership with Associated Firms and Wexford, Key scooped up the West Palm Seaside workplace buildings at 400 and 450 South Australian Avenue for $35 million in 2022. The agency steadily works with Wexford and Arnaud Karsenti's Coconut Grove-based thirteenth Flooring Investments, together with on most of Key's condominium initiatives. “Now we will play in these leagues. We already knew hospitality, and my brother stated, 'If I do know hospitality, why do not we simply do the identical factor on the residential facet?'”Diego Ardid, Key Worldwide The Ardids' actual property companions use a wide range of accolades to explain them — “quintessential European well-rounded [family],” “stylish,” “heat and pleasant” and “humble” — however some additionally referred to as out Inigo's “intense” nature in the case of actual property. “Should you did not know Inigo got here from a household enterprise, you'll assume that he wants the subsequent deal to outlive,” stated Karsenti, who first met Inigo in 2011 when each had been competing for a distressed be aware on a Miami Seaside constructing. The 2 opted to accomplice and redeveloped the positioning into Eden Home. Inigo “is simply hungrier and has extra grit than just about anybody I do know within the enterprise. For him, it is like a favourite sport.” Not each partnership has labored out. In 2012, a administration settlement between Eden Roc house owners Key and a Mexican investor with the then-hotel operator returned into an unpleasant dispute. Eden Roc's house owners accused Marriott Worldwide and its Renaissance Lodges, which had an settlement to function the lodge no less than by 2030, of operating the property like a “poor stepchild” of the model, in accordance with courtroom filings. The house owners invested $240 million to renovate the lodge and construct a spa and an adjoining 282-key lodge, however income fell removed from the professional forma Marriott had introduced. Marriott countered in its swimsuit that it contributed $2 million for development and gave the house owners reprieves on charges that had been as a result of Renaissance. The house owners terminated Renaissance's settlement in 2012, however the model refused to step down as supervisor. Court docket data make clear what adopted: Marriott claimed that Jose and Diego led a administration takeover staff to the lodge in 2012 with about “50-60 uniform safety officers” that attempted to entry proprietary Renaissance data. Eden Roc's house owners countered that in their takeover try, Renaissance referred to as the police and safety from a close-by Marriott-managed lodge, with Jose and Diego being “bodily assaulted” within the debacle. The fits had been settled in 2016, with Eden Roc's house owners agreeing to a $10 million cost and three franchise agreements for accommodations in Mexico, in addition to one other $11 million 5 years later, which may very well be offset by extra franchise agreements. Key has been diving from the Eden Roc and is now a minority proprietor. “Go” Amid the latest Brickell workplace growthhigh-end workplace towers scored leases at a brand new report of effectively over $100 per sq. footwith now offers pushing nearer to $200 a foot. The Ardids took be aware and final yr proposed 848 Brickell. This is what they've going of their favor: They'll watch for a drop in elevated rates of interest as a result of they personal the positioning. (848 Brickell was one among Jose's early investments, with the prevailing 13-story constructing being Key's headquarters.) Chicago-based Sterling Bay is partnering on the undertaking after the agency and Griffin minimize ties on his Brickell tower. Secret is focusing on 40
% to 50 % preleasing earlier than it seeks financing, and will use a capital stack construction that will permit for rate of interest swaps. Critics say it might nonetheless be robust. Greater than 2.7 million sq. toes of workplace area is deliberate for Brickell. “That is loads of area,” stated Robert Orban, a Cresa workplace dealer. “I do not see instant demand for 1.5 million to 2 million sq. toes of workplace area coming to fruition inside a yr or two years of completion of those initiatives. “They may very well be taking a look at a lease-up that might go 4 to 5 years after completion.” Though the Ardids solely want a few 100,000-square-foot preleases, the pipeline of those large-block tenants has slowed, and Miami usually “has by no means been an enormous pre-leasing city,” Orban stated. “It has been extra of a 'construct it and they'll come.'” The Ardids are assured of their plan, saying they're getting calls from potential tenants, each new to the market and native. “As a result of there are so few places of work constructed, the most important tenants are damaged up. A few of these tenants have 30,000 sq. toes there, 40,000 sq. toes there,” Diego stated. “These individuals are consolidating. …We're getting these calls.” Their cautious but assured strategy is rooted within the enterprise values ​​Jose instilled in them. “I believe our father is an enormous go individual,” Inigo stated. “And in addition, do not overdo it. Be sure to do not go stupidly and you'll't even maintain it on the primary bump on the highway.” [ad_2] Supply hyperlink

Liquidation Lessons from History: Case Studies of Success and Failure
Tumblr media
Introduction:
In the intricate landscape of business, the journey from success to failure often traverses through the realm of liquidation. History provides a rich tapestry of case studies, offering invaluable insights into the strategies that have led companies to thrive or falter amidst financial distress. By delving into these historical narratives, we can uncover essential lessons that illuminate the path forward for businesses facing similar challenges today. Join us as we embark on a journey through the annals of liquidation, exploring tales of both triumph and tragedy, and extracting wisdom from the pages of history.
The Rise and Fall of Enron:
One of the most infamous corporate collapses in history, the story of Enron serves as a cautionary tale of unchecked ambition and corporate malfeasance. Once hailed as a paragon of innovation and success, Enron's rapid ascent was fueled by aggressive accounting practices and a culture of deceit. However, when the truth behind its opaque financial dealings came to light, the company crumbled under the weight of its own deception. The Enron saga underscores the importance of transparency, integrity, and ethical leadership in safeguarding against the pitfalls of corporate hubris.
Lessons from Lehman Brothers:
The demise of Lehman Brothers during the 2008 financial crisis sent shockwaves throughout the global economy, marking the largest bankruptcy filing in U.S. history. Lehman's downfall was precipitated by risky investments in subprime mortgages and a lack of adequate risk management protocols. Despite efforts to secure a last-minute bailout, the firm succumbed to insolvency, triggering widespread panic and precipitating a seismic shift in the financial landscape. The Lehman Brothers saga underscores the need for prudent risk management, diversification of investments, and vigilance in monitoring market dynamics.
The Phoenix of Apple:
In stark contrast to the tales of Enron and Lehman Brothers, the resurgence of Apple from the brink of bankruptcy stands as a testament to the power of visionary leadership and strategic innovation. In the late 1990s, Apple was teetering on the edge of collapse, plagued by dwindling market share and a lackluster product lineup. However, under the stewardship of Steve Jobs, the company orchestrated a remarkable turnaround, revitalizing its brand through the introduction of groundbreaking products such as the iPod, iPhone, and iPad. Apple's resurgence serves as a compelling reminder that adversity can be a catalyst for innovation and reinvention.
Extracting Wisdom for Today:
As we reflect on these historical case studies, several key lessons emerge for businesses navigating the challenges of liquidation and financial distress. Transparency, integrity, and ethical governance are foundational pillars that underpin long-term success. Prudent risk management, diversification of investments, and strategic innovation are essential strategies for mitigating vulnerabilities and seizing opportunities in an ever-evolving marketplace. By heeding the lessons of history, businesses can chart a course towards resilience, sustainability, and prosperity in the face of uncertainty.
Conclusion:
In the cyclical nature of business, the past serves as both a teacher and a guide, offering invaluable lessons to inform our present decisions and shape our future trajectories. By studying the triumphs and tribulations of companies that have traversed the turbulent waters of liquidation, we gain a deeper understanding of the principles and practices that drive success. As we navigate the complexities of today's business landscape, let us draw inspiration from the stories of those who have gone before us, forging a path towards enduring prosperity and resilience.
