Om At Redigere
Det kan være sårbart, og direkte angstprovokerende, at læse noget igennem, som man selv har skrevet. Hvor slemt er det så ikke at vise det til andre? Uf! Men hvis du vil videre med din tekst, er du på et tidspunkt nødt til at give slip på den og sende den ud i verden. I denne episode handler det om bogen Bird By Bird af Anne Lamott, og vi taler bl.a. om, hvordan man kan redigere sin egen tekst, og om hvad man skal være opmærksom på, når man læser andres tekst...

Hvorfor forsøge at skrive noget originalt, når alt alligevel er sagt og skrevet? Den provokerende amerikanske poet Kenneth Goldsmith spilder ikke tiden med at tilføje verden mere tekst. I stedet bearbejder han det, der allerede findes. Faktisk mener han, at plagiat er den nye litteraturs fremmeste disciplin. Lyt med og vær klar til at deltage i nogle højst ukreative skriveøvelser.

Nu tager vi fat på et af de helt store emner, nemlig om kunst og litteratur bør være politisk. Jacob og Pernille er ikke helt enige, men får heldigvis god hjælp af George Orwells essay 'Why I write', hvor der blandt andet står følgende: "The opinion that art should have nothing to do with politics is itself a political attitude."

Jacob Levy of McGill University has written extensively about the tension between the idea that the state grants or restrict our liberties, while allowing private associations to set their own rules for their members. When is the right moment for the state to interfere in a group's rules?Uli Baer teaches literature and photography as University Professor at New York University. A recipient of Guggenheim, Gett...

Vi taler om essaysamlingen "Stenvaskeriet og andre stykker", hvor Højholt blandt andet forklarer os, hvad kunst er, og hvordan han har skabt nogle af sine værker som digtsamlingen "Turbo" og den lille, mærkelige roman "6512".

Ep. 5 - Om forfatterens to sider
Vild og grænsesøgende bohèmetype eller intellektuelt geni? Myterne om, hvad der udgør en rigtig forfatter er mange, men de er som oftest netop det: myter. Sandheden er langt mere prosaisk, det drejer sig nemlig om at kunne forene to temperamenter - det umiddelbare og det kritiske, barnet og den voksne. I denne episode får vi hjælp af Dorothea Brande, der i bogen Becoming a writer, giver gode råd til, hvordan de to sider af forfatteren kan forenes, så man rent faktisk får færdiggjort det man skriver.

Det, og meget andet, taler vi om i denne episode, der handler om bogen "Breve til en ung digter".

All My Friends Are in Bar Bands
Episode 69: My Friends Jacob
Metallica. Slayer. Iron Maiden. Black Sabbath. AC/DC. These are just some of the many bands that Jacob has not played with. Still, don't get it twisted - this rock band is doing just fine for itself, with or without the support of Lars Ulrich. In what is unquestionably the most ridiculous episode of the podcast to date, we go four-on-one (and occasionally five-on-one) with the Wollongong/Newcastle hybrid in the first-ever unsanctioned and uncut episode. Everything you hear is live to tape, and most of it is incredibly inappropriate.Jacob's debut self-titled album is out on November 25.
