Our topic on Friday will be the history of filesharing, which I&#8217;ve weighed in on <a href=\"http:\/\/wayneandwax.com\/?p=2106\">here<\/a> and <a href=\"http:\/\/thephoenix.com\/Boston\/news\/133447-mega-up-yours\/\">there<\/a>. If you&#8217;re not aware, Ben is pretty cool. When not teaching about MP3s or designing <a href=\"http:\/\/www.avclub.com\/crossword\/202\/\">crossword puzzles<\/a>, he works on <a href=\"http:\/\/www.weirdvibrations.com\/\">sound in Bangkok<\/a>. <\/p>\n<p>The class is open to whatever lil public it might address! Come find us at 66 west 12th street, room 002.<\/p>\n<p>Later that night (much later &#8212; like, 10pm-4am) I&#8217;ll be tag-teaming the decks with another dear colleague (and, as it happens, recent New School grad), <a href=\"http:\/\/chiefboima.com\/\">Chief Boima<\/a>, at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bembe.us\/\">Bembe<\/a> in Brooklyn. Extending the family affair, Brooklyn Shanti (who has a <a href=\"https:\/\/soundcloud.com\/dutty-artz\/brooklyn-shanti-moner-alo-ft\">new EP<\/a> out on Dutty Artz) will be playing host. Should be hot like toast. <\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/wayneandwax\/8509370573\/\" title=\"WAYNE &amp; WAX + CHIEF BOIMA @ BEMBE 1 March 2013 by wayneandwax, on Flickr\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/farm9.staticflickr.com\/8532\/8509370573_27bd85a38a_c.jpg\" width=\"600\" alt=\"WAYNE &amp; WAX + CHIEF BOIMA @ BEMBE 1 March 2013\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Consider it another mode of file-sharing (esp since Boima uses Serato and I Ableton), but with particular and powerful attributes: realtime, face-to-face, only in that moment and space, quite #rare and #based.<\/p>\n<p>Plus, it&#8217;s <a href=\"http:\/\/www.duttyartz.com\/blog\/events\/wayne-wax-and-chief-boima-at-bembe\/\">Boima&#8217;s birthday<\/a>, so trust vibes will be nice. We&#8217;ll be keeping things rootsy for the most part, a bit more old school than new, but <a href=\"http:\/\/wayneandwax.com\/pdfs\/waterman-our-tradition-very-modern.pdf\">these traditions are very modern traditions<\/a> and the lines get plenty blurred (especially by remixes).
