Listener comments!
	11:54am listener james from westwood: A rising tide lifts all babies!
	12:04pm Mayuko: Good afternoon, james!
	12:05pm listener james from westwood: Afternoon Mayuko and all!
	12:09pm P-90: Good Afternoon, Mayuko and Vertigo Players
	12:10pm fred: Good afternoon Mayuko and listeners
	12:12pm Mayuko: Hallo, P-90! Thank you for tuning in! Good afternoon, fred!
	12:15pm crissbiscit: Hello everybody from the extremely wet and miserable Isle Of Man
	12:15pm fred: Vaudou Game will be playing nearby in a couple of weeks. Unfortunately it's on a Saturday, and that means I'll have to miss this show. Live music comes first, there's no archive for that
	12:18pm Mayuko: Isle Of Man! the island with the coolest flag ever! (although I don't know the meaning of it...) Welcome on board, crissbiscit!!! It's chilly and not very nice weather here in NJ too...
	12:20pm Mayuko: Agreed, fred, live music certainly has the priority! Wish I could go see them too.
	12:22pm crissbiscit: It is good isn't it. The meaning of it is 'whichever way you throw me I will stand' Just looking at some of your work on Instagram, lovely stuff.
	12:23pm Polyus: Hello Mayuko. Rare opportunity to catch you live today.
	12:24pm fred: But today I'm listening, with ice cream and Oreos at hand (Oreos were on sale at my local discount supermarket today, I couldn't resist)
	12:27pm Mayuko: Now I like that flag even more, you certainly got the best flag in the world, crissbiscit! And thank you for your kind words! Hello Polyus, glad to have you here!!
	12:28pm Mayuko: Hopefully I'll get my oreo too next week since I am filling in for Jesse's Frow Show, which means I'm going after Dave Hill with endless resource of oreos. There's gotta be some leftover.
	12:34pm Ken From Hyde Park: Yeah, make sure Danne D doesn't scoop them all up when he leaves for the night.
	12:34pm fred: I saw Aly Keïta last week and really enjoyed that show. He plays balafon, another great instrument from Western Africa (I like it better than kora, but I own my bias for percussion)
	12:37pm Mayuko: I'll probably try get here early and break into Dave's show, Ken!
	12:38pm listener james from westwood: I did not know that Dave Hill has a regular Oreo cache. I may have to work his phone shift at the next Marathon.
	12:41pm fred: I think the first time I saw the Isle of Man flag was in Matthew Barney's Cremaster film (which also features Guinness, ensuring my favor)
	12:43pm Mayuko: Speaking of percussive instrument, I saw some amazing thing from Vanuatu at the met museum that I def need to look up! It's called ambrym gong. Does anyone know about it?
	12:46pm crissbiscit: I've never seen that film Fred, but Guinness could be considered something of an (unofficial) national drink.
	12:49pm Jesse k: Hey Mayuko and folks!
	12:49pm fred: @ crissbiscit: I realize I've never tried a whisky from your neck of the woods. Is there a distillery you'd recommend?
	12:53pm crissbiscit: There is one called ManX, you can buy it online, I have to confess I've never tried it, I'd recommend kippers if you've never tried them.
	1:01pm P-90: The "Slit Gong" (Atingting Kon) is a large gong, carved from a section of tree trunk, that is used in the gong orchestras of the Vanatu yIslands, like Ambrym. These gong orchestras are similar to, and probably influenced by, the Gamelan orchestras of Bali, and are perform at local festivals like the ones at which Balinese Gamelan orchestras perform. Some of these slit gongs are really big, and are considered to be among the largest musical instruments in the world. Some of them are quite ornately carved and decorated, l'm guessing the one you saw at the museum was like that @Mayuko
	1:03pm fred: Is that where the name of your show comes from?
	1:04pm zmzz: she's still singing in western temparament 12 scale though
	1:08pm Mayuko: I don't know how that oreo craziness started, james, I think Danne D is responsible.
	1:08pm Mayuko: Hello Jesse! Glad you here!
	1:08pm zmzz: whmm reading 桃山晴衣 on wiki she's trained in Japanese traditional music....
	1:09pm zmzz: which is just tune pentatonic... but she was singing in a scale we are familiar with...
	1:13pm fred: When my brother was adopted from Korea, he had a record of children songs. More than three decades later, I kinda like hearing Santoki, whereas songs from my own childhood are just grating
	1:14pm Mayuko: @P-90 yeah! it was HUGE! and beautiful. I didn't even realize that it was a musical instrument first. I'd seen it a couple of times before but my bad habit is that I never read anything in the description, so only last week I learned what it was.
	1:16pm Mayuko: @fred, yeah, long story short, that's where my show name came from. not easy to summarize things clearly!
	1:17pm melinda: hi all!
	1:20pm P-90: I'm fascinated to hear what Mayuko had in mind when she imagined the title "Play Vertigo" for her show. It's such an interesting combination of two English words that it has a poetic, amibuous quality when you first see it: like those rwo words together suggest many possible meanings. So it's really cool to hear this explanation of the inspiration for the title. Every child I knew growing up enjoyed spinning around to induce dizziness (vertigo). Some of us would do it to the point where we were quite incapacited and could not even stand up for a few minutes afterward. I've talked with friends about this peculiar "game" that children do spontaneously, and often in groups. It seems like it was the kids with the "smartest", most "imaginative" personalities who liked this activity the most and often encouraged other kids to play too. Maybe it does come from an instictive impulse to self-induce a "disoriented" state, in which the mind is momentarily cleared, much like it is in meditation. One other thing: some of us would spin around holding our pet cats close to our chests, inducing "play vertigo" in the cats as well. Interestingly, the cats were happy to play along and never objected or ran away to avoid participating. They seemed "curious" like the children were, that their senses could be momentarily disoriented in this way. We had seen documentary footage on TV of NASA spinning astronauts around in big centrifuge macines to simulate different "G-forces", so we called this game "Astronaut Training for Cats".
	1:26pm Mayuko: @zmzz that's very good/interesting point re the scale! Her husband is Toshiyuki Tsuchitori who was performing old(est?) enka songs from the late 1800. I think I played his stuff before (or remembering planning to play... not sure I really did...) but don't know really much about them. Should get some books to read/learn what kind of ideas they had in reviving all those old music, because selecting scales and all gotta be intentional.
	1:26pm fred: Wow, how amazing that a French guy I had never heard about before is referenced in this way. According to wikipedia he linked "Ilinx" to dance, something I don't do but love even more than music
	1:27pm Mayuko: Hello melinda! Thank you for tuning in!
	1:30pm fred: Both tracks from the Philippines were really beautiful
	1:31pm melinda: @P-90: Astronaut Training for Cats, both weird and cute! I think I did the spinning around bit as a kid but it would not have occurred to me to include one of our cats.
	1:33pm Mayuko: ah! P-90, thank you for explaining everything on behalf of me. "disoriented state" is right on point! Thank you for understanding the idea so clearly from such disoriented mic break, haha.
	1:34pm listener james from westwood: This album could also be titled, "Soothing Sounds for Copy Editors Who Want to Throttle the Authors of the Books They're Editing."
	1:35pm fred: @melinda: maybe those cats didn't want to include their humans
	1:37pm fred: @James: I take it that your not a copy editor
	1:40pm Mayuko: Yes, I certainly think dancing brings the sense of disorientation and losing borderline of self, fred! That's what I love about it. and I like carousels too.
	1:42pm listener james from westwood: @fred: I am a copy editor, and the feeling was real.
	1:42pm melinda: For deliberate disorientation I liked to stand on my head to see everything upside-down. I don't do it now, though, feels dangerous at adult body size.
	1:44pm fred: @james: I feel your pain. That intentional pun of spelling that "your" was more painful to me than I thought it would be
	1:45pm Mayuko: @melinda haha! that's a great one and I used to do that too (probably just like every other kids.) Now I feel like I should try it out again and see how it feels. but with a wall to support.
	1:45pm paul b: Sorry Mayuko, I was doing apartments chores during your last Mic break when you were talking about your show name Play Vertigo and childhood spinning play. I just want to add now to what other people said that it reminded me of the sensations Patti Smith is singing about in her song "Dancing Barefooot"
	1:45pm melinda: Yeah, I might try it against a wall.
	1:47pm fred: I have a hole in my inner ear, so disorientation is all to easy for me. I'm a cheater. Danne D would say that's why I like the Patriots
	1:47pm P-90: I think it is very interesting that childen will spontaneously learn to play this vertigo "game". I'm thinking about it now that I've studied a little neurological science and learned a bit about meditation. It does seem like a "short cut" to a state where the mind is brought completely into the present moment like it is for experienced meditators, because when you're that dizzy you are in fact quite confined to the present moment, your mind can't wander. A psychedlic experience for toddlers! It also occurs to me that the effort required to spin in this determined way for a full minute or two, to get the full effect, accellerates the heart rate, and therefore requires quite a bit of strong breathing and oxygenates the blood (and brain). This is another resemblance to meditation practice. Hmmm...
	1:48pm listener james from westwood: @fred: Hah, I get ya. And deliberately typing errors is indeed tough to do and then to read over!
	1:51pm Mayuko: @paul b ha! "Here I go when I don't know why / I spin so ceaselessly" ... I guess she certainly knows/remembers this feeling!
	1:53pm Mayuko: The other mystery was why the spinning would burst into laughter. I used to laugh out loud at the end of spinning when I get so dizzy and exhausted and couldn't spin any longer. What is that laughter and senseless happiness?
	1:53pm Mayuko: (not "the other".... "another?" needs a copy editor!)
	1:54pm Mayuko: not even a copy editor, ESL teacher I suppose.
	1:55pm P-90: @melinda: I suggest doing it the way kids do, just stand in one place and vigorously twirl around for 90 seconds or so, as fast as you can (with eyes open), then just lie down in place, and notice the effects of the vertigo (and hyperventilation) "high"
	1:56pm Mayuko: I see, it's a kind of getting "high", that's why you laugh.
	1:57pm fred: Jason is an ESL teacher. His credentials as oreo provider are sketchy though. Maybe Danne D is a better resource on balance
	1:58pm P-90: @fred: if you have a perforated tympanum, that shouldn't affect your abilty to spin and "play vertigo"
	1:59pm Mayuko: My last track today! Thank you for spinning with me for two hours all!
	2:00pm Ike: Thanks Mayuko!
	2:01pm fred: @P-90: No tympanum left to speak of, after six surgeries including a failed graft. Dizziness is an unwelcome frequent guest
	2:03pm Ken From Hyde Park: "This conversation is spinning out of control," he said dizzily.
	2:03pm P-90: Arigato, @DJ Mayuko. Great show today, and I'm looking forward to those upcoming fill-ins. You should go ahaed and invade Dave's show as a guest before you do the show after his. He always seems to "grow up" a little when you're around. In a good way.
	2:05pm fred: Thanks Mayuko, I have a bunch of oreos left, but I'll just have to eat them, you're just too far away. Too far for oreos, but not for music. Tech has its priorities right (for me)
	2:05pm listener james from westwood: Thanks, Mayuko!!
	2:06pm Ike: For a second, I thought you were dedicating the show to someone who had been eaten by a colleague. Ha ha.
	2:06pm Jesse k: Thanks Mayuko!
	2:07pm Mayuko: @Ike haha! I naturally assumed that's not the case with my colleague's belly getting huge but who knows?
	2:08pm Mayuko: Thanks everyone again for listening! Hope to see you all the next time!
	9:17am Stanley: Most enjoyable Konichiwa and sayonara.
	4:26pm Mayuko: Ah! Thank you for listening, Stanley!!!

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.

	1:59pm Mayuko: My last track today! Thank you for spinning with me for two hours all!
	2:00pm Ike: Thanks Mayuko!
	2:01pm fred: @P-90: No tympanum left to speak of, after six surgeries including a failed graft. Dizziness is an unwelcome frequent guest
	2:03pm Ken From Hyde Park: "This conversation is spinning out of control," he said dizzily.
	2:03pm P-90: Arigato, @DJ Mayuko. Great show today, and I'm looking forward to those upcoming fill-ins. You should go ahaed and invade Dave's show as a guest before you do the show after his. He always seems to "grow up" a little when you're around. In a good way.
	2:05pm fred: Thanks Mayuko, I have a bunch of oreos left, but I'll just have to eat them, you're just too far away. Too far for oreos, but not for music. Tech has its priorities right (for me)
	2:05pm listener james from westwood: Thanks, Mayuko!!
	2:06pm Ike: For a second, I thought you were dedicating the show to someone who had been eaten by a colleague. Ha ha.
	2:06pm Jesse k: Thanks Mayuko!
	2:07pm Mayuko: @Ike haha! I naturally assumed that's not the case with my colleague's belly getting huge but who knows?
	2:08pm Mayuko: Thanks everyone again for listening! Hope to see you all the next time!
	9:17am Stanley: Most enjoyable Konichiwa and sayonara.
	4:26pm Mayuko: Ah! Thank you for listening, Stanley!!!
