麻豆约拍

Tom Ravenscroft sits in for Lauren and is joined by the multi-talented, multi-media musician Laurie Anderson.

They chat about Laurie's latest release, Landfall, a collaborative album with the Kronos Quartet. In late 2012, Hurricane Sandy descended on New York, just as Laurie was finishing her composition and it became an album about loss. But instead of lamenting the loss of all the possessions in her flooded basement, Laurie embraced this unexpected minimalism. She carries memories of these things in her head and these stories are as powerful as something tangible.

Laurie also extols the virtues of plan B. Laurie believes that when you fail, you are forced to think from a different angle and that brings a new energy (or a state of bliss, in the case of Brian Eno).

Empire magazine's Chris Hewitt also returns with a brand new 麻豆约拍 pass, and a slightly scary Friday Film Club, with reviews of A Quiet Place, Ghost Stories and Dead Of Night.
