5 Things: Maker Edition



It Is Broke, We Should Probably Fix It: The Non-Profit Model and the Arts by Alexis Clements. Pretty self-explanatory. Clements offers an insightful explication of The Revolution Will Not Be Funded: Beyond the Non-Profit Industrial Complex and discusses how the findings apply to arts organizations. 

What You See by Bill Birkson.

How Lester Bangs Taught Me To Read by Maria Bustillos. (Lester inspired my thesis, among other things.)



Bonus: 


mapping the nightmare by M. John Harrison.


Mellencamp's cover of Born in the USA is heavily edited (for whatever reason).

What's missing:
Come back home to the refinery
Hiring man said son if it was up to me
Went down to see my V.A. man
He said son, don't you understand

I had a brother at Khe Sahn
Fighting off the Viet Cong
They're still there, he's all gone

He had a woman he loved in Saigon
I got a picture of him in her arms now

Down in the shadow of the penitentiary
Out by the gas fires of the refinery
I'm ten years burning down the road
Nowhere to run ain't got nowhere to go

Lyrics here.
