Latest Episodes:

Murmur 92 : Serj Tankian "Danger, Incorporated" Sep 21, 2018
Show notes

SUBJECT : RISK
The Modern School of Film presents Murmur 92 : Serj Tankian Download

Our boldest actions lie in the eye of the beholder. Seldom do the doers of hazardous-deeds self identify - such is the case with risk and its takers. Let's prove our case to Serj Tankian (System of a Down) defier of stop signs he's blind to. Be it personal, political, cultural, artistic, vocational or the myriad forms of vocal, Serj moves forward; success or loss notwithstanding. His measure is always on his terms and we're thankful he knows no better. Perhaps ignorance is risk.

Murmur 91 : Jonathan Coulton "Band of Insiders" Sep 09, 2018
Show notes

SUBJECT : COMMUNITY
The Modern School of Film presents Murmur 91 : Jonathan Coulton "Band of Insiders" Download

Arguably no word nor concept sounds more above inspection than Community. So, of course, let's go. Creator/Musician/Writer Jonathan Coulton has sought out, been part of, builds, and guides his very "own" Community. Sounds great. It is; but there are privileges that can lead to advantages and onward towards exclusions, as every donut has a hole. Groups and groupings are under siege and their diverse whereabouts scream out for dialogue; but fear not — Jonathan helps fill in this space by land and by sea.

Murmur 90 : Johnny Marr "The Rowboat Meets The Road" Aug 17, 2018
Show notes

SUBJECT : COLLABORATION
The Modern School of Film presents Murmur 90 : Johnny Marr "The Rowboat Meets The Road" Download

Our most-requested subject/topic/tool/albatross present in everything we do, do all the time. Some humans readily concede this premise, others are sluggish studies. One artist who might prefer to be remembered as a collaborator-above-all is legendary band leader and member Johnny Marr. Professor Marr embodies as pure a study - and as reliable an authority - on working with others, as the history of art can conjure. His story IS history, and it's found him in groups, continually; working in service to a greater goal, remarkably. Architect of legendary, resonant chords - not the least of which have very little to do with sound itself - Johnny understands that transcendent ideas are found in groups; both in spite of, and often due to, their imperfections.

Murmur 89 : Neko Case "That Cuckoo Clock Feeling" Aug 10, 2018
Show notes

SUBJECT : HARMONY
The Modern School of Film presents Murmur 89 : Neko Case "That Cuckoo Clock Feeling" Download

When sounds come together and form sound, the ear is intrigued. On-alert for no good reason other than its encounter with sonic perfection. Harmony is that perfection. Harmony is hermetic - lacking either panic or uncertainty - as there is usually safety in number. Neko Case knows her gangs and, as a practice, her harmonies. Not only a siren of modern myth and neo-story, Professor Case is proof of harmony's power to nourish and redeem; even if humans aren't always getting along. She authors her art en masse; and the environment remains (as do we), eternally grateful.

Murmur 88 : Alexis Krauss "Just Fucking Teach" Jul 27, 2018
Show notes

SUBJECT :LEARNING TO TEACH
The Modern School of Film presents Murmur 88 : Alexis Krauss "Just Fucking Teach" Download

We've concluded that teaching is no more than exploring a series of opposites: Talking/Listening, Acting/Reacting, Planning/Improvising, Translating/Declaring, Progressing/Remaining, Global/Local, Inside/Outside, Human/Inhumane, Art/Science. Have we covered it all? Not a chance. So, let's ask Alexis Krauss, whose groundbreaking work as a teacher not only draw-drops her legions of (Sleigh Bells) fans and mountainsides of students past and present; but, inspires more answers than questions. As only great teacher can. Class is truly in session. Does everyone have a pencil?

Murmur 87 : Tyler Bates "Demolished, By Design" Jul 13, 2018
Show notes

SUBJECT : THE INVISIBLE COMPOSER As competition for our visual receptors is at an all-time-high, are we forgetting to hear the score? Be it large or small screen. Or are we simply unable to locate it? In either case, forgive us as there is currently a run on cerebral noise in our moving imagery: oversized cinematic "heroes", stories where humanity (itself) hangs in the very balance, larger resumes in tighter spaces, and small-screen writing that is as hypnotic as ever. Fear not, true believer! As no modern composer cuts through the synaptic-thicket with quite the dexterity and audacity of Tyler Bates. His tireless loyalty to story, character, collaborator, history, and galaxy place him firmly, miraculously on the barrier between music, sound, and noise. Yet, it's Tyler's most unrequited love that consistently wins us over -- Silence.

Murmur 86 : Andy Bell of Erasure "Who Is It? It's Us." Jul 06, 2018
Show notes

SUBJECT : ANTHEMS
The Modern School of Film presents Murmur 86 : Andy Bell of Erasure "Who Is It? It's Us." Download

Sounds and songs can inspire us to be a part of something larger; to understand a context for our lives, our trials, our travails, our triumphs. For over 30 years - as the "voice" of the seminal sonic duo Erasure - Andy Bell has proved more advocate than icon; more a delivery system for change, than intentional anthemic engineer. And millions of fans across the world continue to hear him loud and clear; showing-up en masse, as does Andy, with pride. Yet, though true anthems last over time, hearing them remains in the ear of the beholder.

Murmur 85 : Tom Scharpling "Full Battle Prattle" Jun 11, 2018
Show notes

SUBJECT : WHEN CONVERSATION IS ART
The Modern School of Film presents Murmur 85 : Tom Scharpling "Full Battle Prattle" Download

In an age where rhetoric is mistaken for communication, let's spare a thought for times we've spoken, been heard, then returned such favor with our own. Now, take a moment and count how many of those moments you've had, recently. Finished counting, already? Us, too. Iconic creator Tom Scharpling ("The Best Show") has made communication art & craft his life's work; an unending series of conversations both true and false; hilarious, yet deceptively insightful. Sadly, in our experience, with the potential of real talk comes a real downside. Particularly when one's "job" resembles what one was taught to do as a human being. Who knew conversation could be so heartbreaking?

Murmur 84 : John Darnielle "My Own Private Iowa" Jun 01, 2018
Show notes

SUBJECT : HOMETOWN ART & ARTISTS
The Modern School of Film presents Murmur 84: John Darnielle "My Own Private Iowa" Download

Let's explore the fuel, fate, and fascination of the artist who lives and creates outside of "traditional" centers of art, such as New York, London, Los Angeles, Paris, Tokyo and elsewhere. Do artists who defy these hubs of creative traffic do themselves a vocational disservice, or have they discovered the 21st Century's worst-kept-secret? To wit, we've established that an artist needs an audience, but how large a one? And are artists even entitled to that ever-elusive work/life/sanity balance? The well-traveled, oft-acclaimed John Darnielle of The Mountain Goats (currently based in Durham, North Carolina, USA) could be onto something...and we don't mean merely a better price-per-square-foot.

Murmur 83 : Mike Patton "Forever '22" May 14, 2018
Show notes

WORLD PREMIERE : MIKE PATTON
The Modern School of Film presents Murmur 83 : Mike Patton "Forever '22" Download

We are honored to both present the World Premiere of a track from Mike's unforgettable score to the film "1922" -- a script adapted from the novella by Stephen King -- and to talk cinephilia with one of the great living polymathic plumbers. To be able to visit Movie Dorkdom with Mike is as humbling as it is rare. Yet, though Dorkdum certainly has its privileges, can you love something too much be able to make it your vocation? Mike is living and scoring proof to the contrary. Perhaps you have to love it to do as well as he has for so long and in so many formats. Even plumbers love their pipes.
