Last Day Of Term (Ryoji Ikeda, Football, James Baldwin...)

Published on: 12th July, 2021

It's the last day of term at the How Not Academy so before heading off on their summer break, Kim and Luca took a trip to Ryoji Ikeda's exhibition at 180 The Strand.

We discuss the exhibition as well as a plethora on other things on our minds -

  • football
  • football chants - how do the fans learn them, is there a whatsapp group, is it a jam?
  • Christian Marclay
  • Nam June Paik
  • James Baldwin
  • Coffee
  • The Establishment
  • Laura Mvula's new album, Pink Noise
  • bell hooks - Teaching to Transgress
  • A new word for TERFs

There's an interjection by Kim's dog Ripley, Luca's mic has some weird stadium reverb on it, Luca misses a call from his delivery man trying to deliver a dress...All the chaotic energy of a no-school uniform day with your board games and your half days...

About the Podcast

How Not
A Space for Good Troublemakers
How Not is the brainchild of two gobby Scottish creatives, Kim Macari and Luca Manning, who like to talk about the BIG stuff. We thought you might like to listen...So here we are. Our mission is to always be Good Troublemakers, to think big and to ask - How Not?!

Each episode, we pick something BIG to talk about. Sometimes that's an issue or idea that's been keeping us awake at night (like the right to Protest, The Punk Movement or Universal Basic Income...) and sometimes it's a person who think is bold and brilliant - someone worthy of the title Good Troublemaker (like Keith Haring, Marsha P. Johnson or Dererk Jarman...)
