THE VOYAGER INSTITUTE: a film and music lecture series that invigorates and exhilarates

Music scholar Oliver Wang is back with a fantastic subject. He’s got a new podcast on the music appreciation tip — a cratedigger’s paradise called Heat Rocks, distributed by Maximum Fun. He and co-host Morgan Rhodes bring R&B warrior B.Slade to the Institute, for an intimate Q&A on a major ’90s pop turning point: Janet Jackson’s “Rhythm Nation 1814”.
To start the show, Voyager’s first guest filmmaker Zena Grey presents a loving video tribute to horror film icon Tobe Hooper (1943-2017), director of Poltergeist and The Texas Chainsaw Massacre.
11/11 lineup:
- A Tribute To Tobe Hooper (presented by Zena Grey)
- Androgyny In Rock (presented by Bret Berg)
- Janet Jackson’s “Rhythm Nation 1814” (Q&A w/ B.Slade, live taping of Heat Rocks hosted by Morgan Rhodes & Oliver Wang)
ADDRESS: 428 S Hewitt St, Los Angeles, CA 90013.
