Digital illustration drawn in a loose sketchy pencil style of four small, generalized sparrow-type birds of no specific species perching in a tangle of branches. Near each bird are words in a hand drawn blackletter style reading ‘Maybe it’ll happen today’.

‘I hate what AI is doing to the minds and happiness of the young’: Katherine Rundell on the view from the classroom
Education is at a crossroads, argues the author and academic. Should we embrace new technology in the name of efficiency, or is it time to fight back?

also her end life political bent aside, she really dealt with some peak arts life BS as a woman in her early career days. Not sure those stories will ever be told now. But those that know, know and the most important part: she kept going anyway.

This Fall, after a 22-year hiatus, I am pleased to be returning to teach at City University of New York, two courses: instrumentation and counterpoint. I will still need more work to keep going, so educators, performers, and arts organizations, please keep me in mind.

In celebration of ALA’s 150th anniversary, the iconic David Bowie READ poster, first released in 1987, is back in print. An avid reader and library fan, Bowie was one of the first celebrities to pose for the READ campaign. Limited run. Get yours while supplies last: bit.ly/4qgL3dK 📚💙
A young David Bowie wearing a black and white varsity jacket and jeans, is holding "The Idiot" by Dostoevsky while mid-leap. The word "READ" is prominently displayed at the top. Text reads "David Bowie for America's Libraries.

A lot of people reacting to this absolute fact of life in very naive ways: “You’re overestimating your strength. The contemporary far right is more a function of the crisis of liberalism than it is a function of the strength of the left.”

In all the films now u have people saying how wonderful it is to hear budding jazz musicians practicing. In the biographies is more like I had to hide in a closet. U don’t get the mythology of Sonny on the bridge without this fact. The films are full of it.

The world needs more books like this one.
Book cover. Greg Tate. Flyboy in the Buttermilk. 2026 edition. Red background with black letters and a picture in the middle. The picture is bland and white. Mostly a black. The white outlines a zebra head and two hands with white gloves. As if it were a zebra centaur with white gloves holding a top hat. COVER PHOTOGRAPH: CARRIE MAE WEEMS, "MISSING LINK, HAPPINESS," FROM THE LOUISIANA PROJECT.
