 Good morning: Is it possible to still make a living playing in a working band? Apparently not. There used to be something of a mystique about gigging. Sadly, the realities of the economics have changed. Here are more highlights from today’s haul of stories: - How The Artists Of The Third Generation Since The Holocaust Are Dealing With Historical Trauma “The third-generation perspective on the Holocaust is carefully hedged, defiantly distanced, explicitly filtered, supremely self-aware. These stories fundamentally do not belong to the writers or artists.” – The New York Times
- Penguin Random House Adds Anti-AI Statement To Its Copyright Notice “It’s a notable departure from other large publishers, such as academic printers Taylor & Francis, Wiley, and Oxford University Press, which have all agreed to license their portfolios to AI companies.” – Gizmodo
- How Navalny’s Prison Diaries Made It Into Print “Navalny wrote about how it was becoming more difficult to get his messages and memoir pages out. ‘Everything that I write and keep, or take along when I meet my lawyer … is both attentively read and photographed by my keepers.'” – The New York Times
- The Thirty-Year-Old Encrypted Code That Helped End Apartheid “Once apartheid fell apart, the man who created the code encrypted the disk it was on – and eventually forgot the password.” – Wired
- Norway’s TV Station Run By, And For, People With Learning Disabilities “In Norway, as in every country, people with learning disabilities face issues ranging from low employment rates to access to support and housing. Being able to understand the news empowers the wider community.” – BBC
As usual, skip down to see all the stories we’ve collected in the past day. If you know someone who might enjoy AJ, send them here to subscribe, or forward this newsletter to them. See you tomorrow. Doug
