	5/8 5:32pm Mayuko: The Doll That Helped the Soviets Beat the U.S. to Space ~ Meet Ivan Ivanovich, the mannequin who beta tested space www.theatlantic.com...
	5:04pm redkayak: Hello Mayuko and company :)
	5:06pm redkayak: Today, in astronomy news, Mercury transited the Sun...
	5:07pm listener james from westwood: Evening, Mayuko and all! I think yours is the first play of any Ursula Bogner on the station in playlist history!
	5:07pm Stepchild: Hi Mayuko, folks!
	5:08pm Gary: Howdy!
	5:12pm redkayak: I like these pictures....I'm going to get them printed & assembled (Mrs. redkayak wants to go to Mars!)
	5:13pm rbxbx: howdy posse
	5:15pm Mayuko: Thank you for tuning in, all!!! james, I've heard Ursula Bogner got played on fmu before... by myself. haha! but I'm absolutely sure someone had played her (HIM!) already, probably Bryce or Daniel Blumin or someone.
	5:18pm Mayuko: redkayak, you need the bigger one!! www.flickr.com...
	5:21pm Ken From Hyde Park: Hi, all. I hear Megumi Igarashi is in the news. There's a ruling in a Tokyo court and she's engaged to Mike Scott of The Waterboys. www.japantimes.co.jp...
	5:22pm listener james from westwood: The search widget may have deceived me. Half the bloody time I can't even find it! But glad she got some love before.
	5:22pm David: Ha! My kid just told me to turn this off.. I told her to pretend it's a video game
	5:23pm rbxbx: This is delightful.
	5:25pm Mayuko: Hey, you're talking about Rokude Nashiko, Ken? Who got arrested for making 3D model of vaginas? Didn't know her real name. I'm happy for her!
	5:26pm redkayak: @mayuko Thanks! That's awesome!
	5:27pm redkayak: As a child of the Space Age those beeps are comforting somehow...
	5:28pm Mayuko: Haha, Ryoji Ikeda is not loved by children! Sad! But he's loved by some adults here!
	5:28pm redkayak: BTW, NASA has some nifty ringtones >>>> www.nasa.gov...
	5:28pm Mayuko: oh, maybe redkayak as a child would have liked him, then.
	5:29pm redkayak: Roger that, Ground Control :)
	5:29pm Mayuko: Yes, redkayak! That's exactly where I played Quindar sound from. They are all so cool, those recordings.
	5:34pm Ken From Hyde Park: In other planetary news, I looked into the sky around midnight last night and there was a reddish object that was pretty bright. I assume that must have been Mars.
	5:39pm Ken From Hyde Park: www.space.com... "Mars is in opposition to the sun on May 22, and closest to Earth on May 30. This is generally a good apparition, but Mars is low in the southern sky for northern observers. It is visible all night in Scorpius." I think that confirms my sighting. ¯\(°_o)/¯
	5:39pm David: Ken, Saturn is in Scorpius right now.. very bright in the early morning. I was looking for Mars..
	5:41pm Ken From Hyde Park: Thanks, David!
	5:45pm David: The piece before Brian Eno was surely influenced by Tibetan music. What makes musicians explore such sounds and then claim their music is creative? I'd rather hear the Buddhist monks than someone who is mimicking them. Same thing with this gamelan piece.. the real deal will always be better
	5:48pm redkayak: This has been a wonderful set....
	5:52pm Mayuko: I did hear that Tibetan kinda feeling too, David, and I see your point. At the same time, that fact that musicians from my country before and even during WW2 was inspired/influenced/copied jazz, american pops and Indonesian pops and all sorts of different music moved me at the same time. Because it's a move that shows their interest, that they're not closed, etc despite of the censorship and banning of the JP empire. These musical mixture shows that people can interact with each other, interested in knowing each other. Then again this kind of stuff could easily fall into cultural exploitation & over romanticizing too. It's a big argument that I cannot really do while playing music though, haha.
	5:58pm Stepchild: Agreed. And in the other direction, fetishization of the original can be too facile and easily lose sight of the way "the originals" often stole and mimicked in their own creative activity...
	6:03pm Little Mikey: Greetings!
	6:06pm Mayuko: Uncle Mikey!
	6:06pm David: Thanks Mayuko chan.. I feel the latter honestly but I see your point. It's not always the foreigners who mess with tradition.. Indian guys are now playing surbahar like rock guitar.. an instrument which is so mystical, meant to be played in introspective mood, a real slap in the face of tradition And Stepchild, you're right.. all music has been influenced by outside sources so I should try to see both sides.. and some of that old Martin Denny exotica is pretty good I have to say
	6:10pm paul b: I would like to think of Ivan Ivanovich in his dream quest across space as a travel companion of Ijon Tichy <en.wikipedia.org..., my favourite cosmonaut
	6:14pm Uncle Michael: I believe all culture is constantly evolving, incorporating the influences, vocabulary and mannerisms of everything that contacts it. Nothing is preserved in amber. There may be historical records of various moments in time but they are snapshots of something that never stops moving.
	6:15pm Mayuko: That's very true, stepchild. I think that happens in Japan too. It's complicated. In my case with JP "original" for example I admire its beauty so much, but also can't just love it, because all these traditional art are often based on very closed minded values that I felt the need to escape from. Part of me thinks I'd rather have someone comes in and messes up with it.
	6:18pm Mayuko: Hello paul b, I like that! He can have some MAKET colleague!
	6:21pm coelacanth: hi Mayuko and astro-naughts
	6:22pm Mayuko: Welcome on board, coelacanth!
	6:27pm Mayuko: I agree, I think that's how it is when a culture / society is still alive, Uncle Michael. When it stops doing those things it feels like that's when it starts to become irrelevant.
	6:29pm Stepchild: We've got room in our ears -- in our empty heads -- for originals, thefts, subversions, popularizations, parodies, pastiches, homages, detournments... When something is trying to escape or deny its basis, that can be a problem. But then, so much of creativity is actually unconscious that I can't even always fault that...
	6:32pm Dean: Once or twice, though, culture stops in its tracks and doesn't budge. I'm thinking here of Mötley Crüe.
	6:32pm Stepchild: !
	6:32pm Mayuko: Haha!
	6:34pm Uncle Michael: Well, when you get something exactly right...
	6:35pm Mayuko: One day people like UNESCO will release Mötley Crüe, 100 yrs later. Probably they got to that level.
	6:42pm Dean: Right. A corollary to "If it ain't broke, don't fix it" is "Ignore it and it will go away."
	6:47pm Uncle Michael: Many things in this world I have decided to ignore till I go away.
	6:51pm Mayuko: Coming up next is Global Grease with Kim Sorise! Here's the playlist for her today's show: wfmu.org... Stay tuned!
	6:53pm Mayuko: This is my last track today. It's been wonderful to have you all here! Thank you for tuning in!
	6:54pm Ken From Hyde Park: Have a good week off. See you next time, Mayuko.
	6:55pm Stepchild: Thanks Mayuko
	6:58pm listener james from westwood: Thanks, Mayuko!
	6:59pm coelacanth: Thanks Mayuko! that was a great hour 2. i'll visit the archive for hour 1.
	7:02pm Mayuko: Thank you all for listening!! See you next time, have beautiful weeks everyone.
	12:23am sinister dexter: very much enjoyed this show .... thanks Mayuko ..... looking forward to more
	5:42pm fred: Thanks again Mayuko, this show's electronic/space vibe reminded me of my fave comic character when I was growing up. Back then I wanted to be her, now it's so embarrassing. That was Yoko Tsuno, you can imagine how that fake Japanese feels even worse by now. But it was empowering at the time, I knew nothing
	8:30pm Mayuko: sinister dexter! Thank you for listening & comment!
	8:36pm Mayuko: I Googled Yoko Tsuno, fred, doesn't seem bad to me, and it's cool that she's an electrical engineer. I wanna see what the story is like!

I play music that is old and that is new. Some of it is digital while some is analog. It is from many different countries; sometimes it is loud and at other times it is quiet.
