This is a great event and if you can catch it, you won't be sorry. I am
pissed because I will miss it due to being out of town. So fill me in
if you go. Martin Atkins is speaking at the Symp on Thurs Dec 13 in support of his new book Smart:Tour. He a funny and great person who plans on sticking around to mingle and talk with those who show up. It's free. http://tstouring.com/index2.html If you are new to Martin, he has spent the last 30 years firmly left of center – performing with seminal bands Public Image Limited, Killing Joke, Ministry, and Nine Inch Nails. He formed industrial supergroup Pigface, The Damage Manual, the post-punk Brian Brain and has had his own label, Invisible, for close to 20 years. Atkins has moved into the world of publishing with
a new column for Suicide
Girls, and his book Tour:Smart,
hits the shelves this Spring. When not teaching at
Columbia College Chicago, Atkins
guest lectures throughout the world, most recently taking a trip to
China where he signed and recorded several bands, filmed a documentary,
and created a traditional instrument and scratch DJ hybrid that has
already been featured on NPR. |
