Sound and vision: the loner's guide
Article Abstract:
The output of most record companies is determined by what will please audiences, rather than by the instincts of the company managers, according to Editions of Contemporary Music founder Manfred Eicher. He does not share this approach, and is always driven by his passion for music. He has an extremely self-disciplined approach to work, as well as a sense of isolation. He believes that it is important to sense the atmosphere of music, and is willing to bring together musicians from across the world to achieve the right balance.

Truth be damned
Article Abstract:
The immune deficiency of the media is starting to collapse, according to US critic Douglas Rushkoff. He argues that a media virus can spread through radio, television, newspapers and even the internet, with a story which began merely with a rumour or was started maliciously suddenly becoming a key item of news and taken very seriously. A modern media virus is different from a traditional publicity stunt, as it is based on complex communications systems where the distinctions between fact and fiction can become very unclear.
