• The Drivers Of American Innovation Are Slowing

  21-07-2020 23:01 via feedproxy.google.com
  
  The coronavirus pandemic and the administration’s botched response to it are damaging the engine of American innovation in three major ways: The flow of talented people from overseas is slowing; the university hubs that produce basic research and development are in financial turmoil; and the circulation of people and ideas in high-productivity industrial clusters, such as Silicon Valley, has been impeded. – The Atlantic

• The Berkshires Cultural Crawl Without Crowds

  “They parked all too easily; slung their fold-up camp chairs over their shoulders; and waited obediently in a socially distanced line to enter the grounds, cracking jokes behind their masks. The lawn — a special mix of Kentucky bluegrass, perennial ryegrass and a variety called fine fescue, designed to withstand the footsteps of up to 18,000 music fans a night — was as supernaturally green as ever. The vista, still magnificent. The sound? No tuning. Mostly birds chirping. Save

• Seven Ideas For The Chicago Symphony To Perform Again

  21-07-2020 21:33 via feedproxy.google.com
  
  Howard Reich: “Should the organization succeed in presenting live events, it will deliver us from the current deluge of online performances by every musician who happens to own a smart phone. These musical snippets are better than nothing, of course, but bear scant relation to what happens when listeners hear music in a concert hall in real time.” – Chicago Tribune

• When Lockdown Started, Powell’s Book Sales Soared. How’s Business Now? (Not So Good)

  21-07-2020 21:03 via feedproxy.google.com
  
  Emily Powell: “In some ways, it’s hard to say, because our trends have completely evaporated. Before the pandemic, I could have told you, ‘Oh, the first sunny day, and this month will look like this. The second sunny day will look like that.’ But all of those behaviors have gone away. So right now we’re on a relatively steady sales decline and trying to do our best to turn that in a different direction.” – Oregon Public Broadcasting

• The End Of Tourism?

  21-07-2020 20:31 via feedproxy.google.com
  
  It took a pandemic to stop the gluttonous consumption of other places, trips that relied centrally on the have-nots—armies of hotel workers, cleaners, food preparers, bartenders, pool attendants—to provide the lavish experience sought. The argument in favor of this juxtaposition was that tourists, however noxious, were propping up the GDP of places like Macau (51 percent), Maldives (32.5 percent), Spain (14.6 percent), and Italy (13.2 percent). It was, as neoliberal economics go, a

• Statues are lies, selfies in bronze – and you can't bring history to life with a dead art

  21-07-2020 17:08
  
  Why are we obsessed with putting up statues of new heroes to replace old villains like Edward Colston? Reducing history to celebrity culture won’t help anyone understand the full scale and horror of slavery The statue died as an art form 103 years ago, when Marcel Duchamp submitted a porcelain urinal to a New York art exhibition. So why, in the 21st century, are we obsessing about putting up statues of new heroes to replace the old villains? All this political radicalism is being betrayed
