Book Clubbing #4: Nou elogis de l'imparell amb Edi Pou

There is as much music as there are ways to live it. Return to Book Clubbing, the reading club of La Capsa, where songs, albums, concerts, tours and festivals, in addition to being listened to, are also read. During eight sessions, which will correspond to the reading of eight different books, we will try to compose a general view of the various ways there are to write about music. From autobiographies to oral history accounts, passing through essays or criticism. NEW PRAISES FOR THE ODD (EDI POU) New Praises for the Odd starts from a concern: how can it be that just now that we have millions of music at a single click, the whole world listens to the same fifty songs? And how can it be that all fifty have the same rhythm, the same beat, a similar duration and a predictable theme? How does this uniformity affect us? Edi Pou, drummer of ZA! and Los Sara Fontan, is clear: the odd rhythm is a challenge to power and normality, and in this challenge lies all hope. This third edition of Book Clubbing has been designed and will be guided by Eva Sebastián. Born in Sants, she studied Audiovisual Communication at UPF. She achieved the Blog Europa grant, which took her to work at Quan arribin els marcians of TV3. She continued her career with digital content at Vice, Playground and Indiespot, and currently combines jobs in different media such as El Nacional, Mondo Sonoro, El Confidencial, Acero, Código Nuevo, Buzzfeed, Playz and Revers. If you look for her, you will surely find her at some event with live music, from self-managed venues to the last festival. We don't think of a better guide on this reading path :-) REGISTRATIONS AND BOOK COLLECTION Registrations are free and will be open throughout the course (you don't have to attend the whole course, you can sign up for the books that suit you best). Once you register, we will notify you so you can go to collect your book at the Prat library for free. We have a reservation just for you! Oh! And don't miss the track, because we will count on great guests, musicians and authors, we will dissect each book with articles, films and collaborative playlists and, even, we will have some special sarao ;)
