August 29, 2024: Un-sounds unseen
Today, we’re exploring the subliminal stuff that’s there when you think it’s not.
Take John Cage’s 4’33”, which was first performed 72 years ago today. It’s a work that is seemingly nothing, but contains a whole lot more. And now there’s a picture book so you can explore the silence with your little ones. We’ll talk with Northampton author Nicholas Day about his book Nothing, and the neat ways to talk about incredible advances in modern music in the simplest of terms
It’s also in the archive of Friday Kahlo’s photographs. Only recently found and containing thousands of photos of the artist herself, her family, loves, and interests, the collection paints a new picture of her work and life. Springfield Museums will have a few hundred of these photos on view through next week, which coincides with their 2nd annual Latino Art Festival, so we head down the street to get a peek into the private collection of one of the 20th century’s most prolific artists with Curatorial Assistant Sophie Combs and chair of Mi Museo Lydia Martinez Alvarez about the intersecting power of those two events.
Plus our weekly chat with congressman Jim McGovern covers quite a bit of both subtle and obvious ground with his farm tour, political figures switching sides, ongoing Israeli Palestine conflicts, and persisting rise of covid cases as students head back to campuses in Western Mass and beyond.

Trump 2024. Harris has been a disaster for me and my family. I want my old president back I prospered under. Harris is a liar. She is incompetent and I don’t share her values on what it is to be a moral female. Trump 2024.
That is true and sad ❤
waste of time. find another film to watch. ridiculous plot...
I clicked the up vote but the counter did not move.
The Democratic party doesn't represent the voters of New England!!! Lies, hatred, corruption, racial divisiveness, & grotesque propaganda is all the Dems offer! The US will collapse completely with a continuation of the current Democratic party,!!!

We love it! - Thanks Monte!

Would love for her to have a career like LaLa Hathaway is having. Tank and J. Valentine please get her on R&B money for a masterclass!!!!!!
Agreed. I’ve been following her “2nd solo “ career after she left TRS, and I’ve noticed that most of her sets are covers of other songs which aren’t really R&B. That’s great because she can sing nearly every genre. I’d love for her to release another album with some modern R&B songs. Plenty of great R&B artists she could collaborate with like LaLa Hathaway, Jasmine Sullivan, and more.
Queen Lisa Fischer , nothing but Pure Perfection. Pay attention to the Angels on earth - she's one !! ❤
So unsung! I have old concert DVDs and my favorite features Lisa Fischer when she toured with Luther and they were at Wembley.
If you've never heard it,.. she has an amazing song from the 90's called " Reaching for You"
Love this interview!
This woman has a beautiful voice, I listen to her music a lot❤❤
Such an amazing talent! Wonderful interview! Such a fan of hers
For info. purposes he says house built in 1990, so 26 years before cracking the norm with others ?
4 years ago 1:03 and this video is 4 years ago / So 8 years ago = 2016 ( date of this comment 10/10/24) they started seeing this ?
❤ down to earth fast crew are awesome + snappy hot dogs & burgers are the best ❤
Tickled she's doing what brings her joy in music! Enjoying her current collaboration w/ Ranky Tanky
Nice video. I Wish they still had a trolley like that! I've been up Mt. Washington on the Cog Railway and rode the trolleys at Seashore Trolley Museum in Kennebunkport Maine. Great time for kids and adults
Ive visited Holyoke twice in my life time and one time I went up Mt. Tom, as a child , to swim in the Mt. Tom Water park. They had slides and a pool If I remember correctly. Fond memories!
Whenever I was on the road and getting hungry, I would always look for a diner for the best home-made meal at the most reasonable Prices. Some were 'kinda elegant and fancy while others were on the old and dumpy side, but they all had the best people that owned it or just worked there. That's the part of America that shows everyone in the world what great people we are.
Riverside was the best. Great family fun. Had wonderful times there.
Lisa Fischer 🎤 is OMG there are no words for this woman's voice
I remember getting tobacco leaves from the fields surrounding it and rolling giant spliffs with them .
Massachusetts thinks itself it’s own country in having the most restrictive gun laws out there. Why do we even have a constitution if states are allowed to just crush a persons constitutional rights? It’s August 2024 and MA snuck through legislation to dismantle more citizens 2nd amendment rights. Meanwhile cities like springfield still have plenty of murders. Firearms are tools, you want to fix an issue fix the source of the issue not the object the person with the issue used. Most folks can’t even possess firearms even though they supposedly have a 2nd amendment right. MA makes every little thing a person does wrong a crime in which disqualifies them from their own constitutional right. SMH I am not a republican but I see guns as tools and all those in power sure use those tools military or not…. Constitutional carry should be the law of the land and when a person pays their debt to society their rights should be given back. If you aren’t punishing them long enough then that’s the states fault. Imagine being punished for life for non violent crimes. MA is downright ridiculous about everything and they tax the hell out of people.
I would live to take a tour of the factory and watch them build one. Glad to see it's opened and carried on
Now that is creepy. So is folding the 20 dollar bill to show smoke coming out of two buildings.

Hi, @NEPM /@NewEnglandPublicMedia: Please note your headline is potentially misleading. (Ambiguity on who is offering the bribe.) Please revise headline to read: "Taub WAS offered a bribe" ...to avoid inadvertently defaming the professor.
I HOPE THE HIGH PRICES FOUND THERE AREN'T BECAUSE THEY'VE AGREED TO BE PART OF THE GOVERNMENT PROGRAMS..IT SEEMS THAT THE HARDWORKING LOCAL THAT ARE LOOKING TO PUT FRESH ,NOURISHING FOOD ON THEIR TABLES HAVE TO PAY $$$$ LOTS .OTHERS GO THERE WITH THEIR ..$40.00 VOUCHERS EVERY MONTH.
