Safety Propaganda
เข้าร่วมเมื่อ 24 พ.ย. 2006
Safety Propaganda is a collaborative platform hosted by writer and artist Adam Lehrer that will publish criticism, poetry, theory, art, fiction, photography and any creative production that dares to challenge and divert from regime ideology. We commit to publishing ideas that would be considered off limits by the bourgeois structures of the mainstream publishing and art worlds. Real art, the art that can’t be absorbed back into a neoliberal marketplace, is met with widespread contempt and scorn. Iconoclasts, neurodivergents and free thinkers are hated as much now as they’ve ever been in modern history. Safety Propaganda is a space of dissent, of provocation, of taboo, of the abject, of the sublime, and of art in all its moral complexity and troubling character.
Safety Propaganda works in counter intelligence, and is affiliated with the broader organization of the Counter Agency of the Avant Garde.

LARP LIFE w/ Ben Werther
Ben Werther is a conceptual artist, born in Nashville and living in New York, whose new exhibition at No Gallery, “WHEN YOU CAN NO LONGER SPEAK, SING ME A SONG.” , presents a fascinating sequence of photographs that initially look like on the ground photojournalistic documents of armed combat. Upon further inquiry, however, you learn that these images were captured during Werther's attendance at a number of MilSim LARP rituals, in which Americans don military fatigues and arm themselves with airsoft rifles and pantomime military conflict. The exhibition also offers the work in book form, along with the cryptic writing of the artist complicating the images' meaning.
Here, Adam and Ben speak about the work, MilSim, the cultural condition of LARPing and identity craft, Thomas Ligotti True Detective Season 1, mythology, Joseph Campbell, and more.

Unedited Video Poor Greek (W/ Zane)

Yorgos Lanthimos has not been a preferred filmmaker of the Safety Propaganda universe. Too self-consciously "weird". Too Letterboxd. His new film Poor Things, starring Emma Stone in a virtuosic performance as a young woman with the brain of an infant, is a comic masterpiece. Based on a story by surrealist Scottish author Alsadair Gray, 'Poor Things' is an absolute delight to watch. Riotously fu...

At the end of November, friends of SP Newton Gallery hosted an exhibition of paintings and cartoons by American artist Stephen Tunney.

When Stephen plugged his guitar in to perform some of those songs, the image co...

The Death of a Socerer (W/ Bradford Kessler and Benjamin Kellogg)
มุมมอง 111ปีที่แล้ว
One of the greatest American film artists, William Friedkin, has passed away at the age of 87. The son of Ukrainian Jewish immigrant parents (who fled their country after the antisemitic pogroms of the early 20th Century), Friedkin was a shitty student and a great basketball player until he discovered cinema in the '60s. He then rose from a Hollywood journeyman doing shitty films for studios un...
Probable Mossad (W/ Thomas Moore and Audrey Szasz)
มุมมอง 1.1Kปีที่แล้ว
Writers Audrey Szasz and Thomas Moore have both just released new novels for Philip Best's Amphetamine Sulphate. Audrey's novel is called Counterillumination, a wildly psychedelic collection of prose where agents and counter-agents wage psychological warfare upon one another against an abstract dystopic landscape. It's rather hard to describe so I suggest you just read it. Thomas's new book is ...

Thank you Billy for sharing so much of your time n insights

Nice
they both killed this. loving the safety propaganda foray into theater
Now most good music is hard to come by.thats why I stay with the classics and my teen son knows spumpkins,nirvana, Metallica, Marilyn Manson And journey,nin,kings of leon
Corgan is a genius. This interviewer? Uhhh, like, absolutely? Yeh. Anyway.. Thanks for at least being a conduit for this incredibly patient man to wax nostalgic and enlighten us a little, to what he is all about. SP and Billy are kings.
In what capacity have I ever claimed to be a genius, ingrate? I’ve only ever claimed to be metaphysically and physically and mentally perfect

There’s a lot of good bluegrass and alt-country out there
If you don't love the Scorpions, you don't love perfect Guitar Riffs. And your a Snob.
Its interesting he brought up buster Keaton and silent movies. He did an interview not more than 2 weeks ago mentioning silent movies and the history of America. And here he is saying it again.

THIS CHANNEL IS propaganda. Placing the word propaganda in faces like this is a mind stir. No one here is saying anything near to seeking truth. Modern Art is a CIA PROGRAM, money laundering con. It’s known see Who Paid the Piper?
Everybody knows that Sorrow is the family business, not tour busses.
What a fantastic interview, so refreshing after the mainstream stock standard journo questions. Very satisfying 🥰
I hope that's a "Clayman"-era In Flames t-shirt
Helpful tip: you’re talking into the top of that mic and it’s a side-address mic. You’re supposed to leave it on the table angled sideways at your mouth. If you talk into the top of it, the sound is not going to be as good.
Horrible
Fascinating interview. Looking forward to more!
incredible interview, you guys are very good.
Great interview
A Forest by the Cure, first heard it in the 80's changed my world view
I understand and agree with the conversations Corgan and the host were having but how do we separate the opinions crafted by gatekeepers of what's good/bad art from legitimate criticism? I mean, sometimes and album is just a miss.
Kanye did what no one else has the balls to do.
Criticizing Hollywood without mentioning the ethnic tribe of that industry shows Billy Corgan really isn’t a rebel at all
This interviewer is not that great.
I'll try to keep this short. I was eleven years old when Siamese Dream was released. I heard that, and Billy would be my favorite person from that moment forward and SP my favorite band. I used to frequent the fansites in the early 2000s and late 90's. There were many "fans" that wished him dead, he's not lying. All because he wouldn't make another Siamese Dream or MCIS. On the other hand, I'm there loving Adore and Machina and just losing my mind arguing with these pieces of garbage while they're trying to tell me things like Arcade Fire and AFI are better than SP now(back in 2000 that is) lol. I basically settled on the idea that Billy already created his masterpieces and anything else was like bonus material on a DVD. I could always go back and listen to my favorite SP albums if I didn't like the newer stuff. He would then go on after Machina/Machina II to do his solo album, ZWAN, Zeitgeist, Oceania, etc. and there were a ton of really awesome songs in there too that belong up there in the same league as Siamese Dream and MCIS era stuff. I wound up completely understanding that Billy just wants to make music for HIMSELF, and if people like it great, but if not that's great too. That theory of just taking things for what they are has helped me out a ton in life when choosing what to spend my time doing and enjoying. I wish every pumpkins fan could see this video interview you've done. Take care everyone, and thanks for doing this interview with Billy.

Billy is a funny genius musician I like him more and more
Billy is a legend and an American treasure.
@ 128:30 When Billy said "Hipster Killer" I just heard an amazing name for a band/song/album etc. Love it.
That scarf 🧣 around Billy's neck is so cringey lol😂 With that being said Corgan is a highly intelligent man and he makes a lot of sense. Brilliant dude.
Billy likes scarves.
