中谷美紀『食物連鎖』で坂本龍一が試みた〈もう一つのJ-POP〉とは? 歌声の扱いや多様な音楽の共存でポップスを拡張した96年作 | Mikiki by TOWER RECORDS
女優・中谷美紀は歌手活動をしていたことも知られており、坂本龍一のプロデュースで名作を残していることは有名だ。そんな当時を象徴する名曲“MIND CIRCUS”を収録した1stアルバム『食物連鎖』がリリースされのはた1996年9月4日。坂本だけでなく豪華な作家陣が参加した名盤が30周年を迎えたこと機に、音楽ライター・デンシノオトが本作を改めて掘り下げる。 ★連載〈名盤アニバーサリー〉の記事一覧はこちら 中谷美紀 『食物連鎖』 güt（1996） 1996年、転換期に〈ポップスとは何か〉を問い直した坂本龍一 1996年、日本のポップミュージックは大きな転換期にあった。小室哲哉が手がけたglobe、安室奈美恵、華原朋美、TRFらがヒットを連発し、鋭いデジタルシンセサイザーと生き急ぐようなビートが時代を象徴していた。阪神・淡路大震災と地下鉄サリン事件を経た社会は、1994年まであったバブルの残り香が消え去り、社会は一気に暗くなり、切迫したムードになっていった。...

〈Refraction〉とは〈屈折〉の意。それが複数形となることでアルバムという集合を示すとともに、個々の楽曲の事象の地平面でも実にさまざまな屈折が起こっていることを仄めかしている。 Cornelius＝小山田圭吾の表現を前に私は深読みを禁じ得ない。1990年代初頭にまで遡るこの悪癖（?）を絶ちきるのは容易ではないが、2017年の『Mellow Waves』、その6年後の『夢中夢 -Dream In Dream-』（2023年）、編集盤ではあるが『Ethereal Essence』（2024年）と、近作における内省的なトーンは深読みを誘うよりも音楽家＝小山田圭吾の滲み出す滋味を堪能するのを誘うかのごとき興趣があった。むろん世相や空気といったものとも無縁ではない。おそらく小山田はそれらに恬淡と向き合うことを選択した。...
Who You Staring At?: Visual Culture of the No Wave Scene in the 1970s and 1980s at the Centre Pompidou Paris
By LARA PAN, May 2023 One of the smallest but most interesting exhibitions marking 2023 is Who You Staring At?: Visual Culture of the No Wave Scene in the 1970s and 1980s, now at the Centre Pompidou Paris (Level 4) until June 19th. It is wonderfully curated by Nicolas Ballet, a media art historian and curator at the new media department there. The title of Ballet’s show borrows its title from Who You Staring At?, a 1982 Giorno Poetry Systems LP with John Giorno and Glenn Branca.

Dan Scardino by Michael O'Keefe - BOMB Magazine
Me & Veronica, Don Scardino’s directoral feature film debut played the Venice Film Festival to standing 0’s all around. Before the press conference Don and I got giddy with the possibility of me answering each question put to Don: he’d whisper in my ear and I would say in my best bad Italian accent, “Don Scardino, he says the film, she speaks for herself.” This is one of Don’s fascinating contradictions.
Sue Williams by Nancy Spero - BOMB Magazine
Sue Williams, Are You Porn or Anti-Porn?, 1992, acrylic on canvas, 72 × 62 inches. All images courtesy of 303 Gallery. I first saw Sue Williams’ work two years ago, and thought, Wow, they bite. Her paintings galvanized me: violent, cartoonish, explicit, voracious… . A chosen few, mostly other artists, were impressed, yet the work seemed to slip by oddly unnoticed. Times change. Political thought returned. Sue Williams has been there all along. And now, we’re ready to see her.

Neil Jordan by Lawrence Chua - BOMB Magazine
Neil Jordan © Susan Shacter, 1992. Location courtesy of McHale’s Cafe. When I find Neil Jordan, he is sitting with his back against the banquette of a hotel dining room. He is fingering the stem of an elaborate water glass, speaking so softly that for a moment, it’s not clear whether he’s addressing me or the glass. Jordan was an award-winning novelist in Ireland before he directed his first film, Angel, in 1981.
Steve Buscemi by Quentin Tarantino - BOMB Magazine
Steve Buscemi. © 1992 Shannon Greer. I first became aware of Steve Buscemi’s work as the young man living with AIDS in the late Bill Sherwood’s Parting Glances. The memory of this too-cool-for-school New York underground rodent, sitting on his lover’s lap, silently saying, “I love you,” as his hand comes up snatching the unsaid word out of the air, has stayed in my heart to this day. However, as much as I enjoyed his work, I didn’t expect to ever see him again.
Coco Fusco and Guillermo Gómez-Peña

In March 1992, performance artist and MacArthur Fellow, Guillermo Gómez-Peña and writer/artist Coco Fusco locked themselves in a cage. Presenting themselves as aboriginal inhabitants of an island off the gulf of Mexico that was overlooked by Columbus, their spectacle provided a thorn in the side of postcolonial angst.
Ralph Lee by Charlie Ahearn - BOMB Magazine
Ralph Lee mines the rich mother lode of Native American myth to create timeless theatrical events under the stars. We met at his Westbeth studio apartment, a spooky menagerie of handcrafted masks, props and puppets. Charlie Ahearn Ralph, what is that you’re working on? Ralph Lee The framework for a large monster, a thrashing spirit. Not that anyone has a clear description of what a thrashing spirit is.
Sarah Schulman by Milyoung Cho - BOMB Magazine
Sarah Schulman does not hesitate to commit a “cultural violation.” She constantly transgresses the boundaries of what is expected of her: as a writer, as an activist, as a white lesbian living in America. Her fifth and latest novel, Empathy (Dutton), sputters social realist doses of a crisis-ridden, morally bankrupt New York. Stumbling over the gritty urban terrain, her sensitive but righteous characters search for their own place while struggling internally around gender and sexuality.
BOMB Magazine | Richard Serra
DS Why did you give up painting? RS I was using paint with a certain disdain, with the attitude that any material was as good as any other material. And once you find that you’re not using paint for its illusionistic capabilities or its color refraction but as a material that happens to be “red,” you can use any material as equally relevant. I started using a host load of materials.
