Excerpt

Laurie Anderson is on the Chatter podcast to talk with host Shane Harris about her work, particularly as it relates to the podcast's focus on the intersection of art and national security, including her piece Habeas Corpus, her surprise 1981 hit single "O Superman," and her 2015 film Heart of a Dog. You can hear their conversation here. Nonesuch Records reissued Laurie Anderson's debut album, Big Science, which features "O Superman," on red vinyl last year. Remixes of two tracks from the album were recently released: the title track, remixed by Arca, and "Sweaters," by Sam Gendel.

Laurie Anderson is the guest on the latest episode of the Lawfare podcast Chatter, hosted by Shane Harris and David Priess. She talks with Harris about her work—on the occasion of The Weather, her current exhibition at the Hirshhorn Museum in Washington, DC—particularly as it relates to the podcast's focus on the intersection of art and national security, including her piece Habeas Corpus, her surprise 1981 hit single "O Superman," and her 2015 film Heart of a Dog. You can hear their conversation below.

"Your career defies succinct summary and characterization for purpose of an intro ... but I really think of you as a storyteller who has worked in every conceivable medium: You're a musician ... You are a visual multimedia artist ... a writer, a painter. You've kind of done it all."

    Guitarist/composer Yasmin Williams stopped by the NPR offices in Washington, DC, to perform a Tiny Desk Concert of songs from her new album, Acadia, and more. "Williams is a fingerstyle guitarist who taps, slaps and slides up and down the fretboard of her instrument with a commanding sense of scenery that flickers between the strings," says NPR's Lars Gotrich.
