On how to respond to conformity.
Lias Saoudi, frontman of the British band Fat White Family, joins us to talk about rock, popular culture and contemporary unfreedom. We discuss:
- Why are the kids taking less drugs?
- Can we respond to our nihilistic times with nihilistic art?
- What is the nature of conformity today?
- How to challenge conformity without sneering at the masses?
- Is there a romantic revival going on? Why is Lias interested in Ivan Illich?
- If living cheaply in big cities is now very difficult for artists, will something new emerge from the provinces?
