This Week’s Theme: The National Recording Registry Part One (Pre-1955) This week we are taking a deep dive into the historical research aspect of the Radio Faux Show.

THIS DAY IN GAY HISTORY
based on: The White Crane Institute's 'Gay Wisdom', Gay Birthdays, Gay For Today, Famous GLBT, glbt-Gay Encylopedia, Today in Gay History, Wikipedia, and more … April 11

1780 – William Smith and Theodosius Reed are pilloried in England for attempted sodomy. They are attacked by a crowd throwing objects, killing Smith. The London Morning Post endorsed the crowd's actions.

1901 – The Wisconsin author Glenway Wescott, was born on this date (d.1987). A major American novelist during the 1920-1940 period and a figure in the American expatriate literary community in Paris during the 1920s Wescott was the model for the character Robert Prentiss in Ernest Hemingway's The Sun Also Rises.
He produced a series of best-selling, highly regarded novels, notably The Grandmothers (1927), The Pilgrim Hawk (1940) and Apartment In Athens (1945), although he didn't complete a novel after the age of forty-five. He was equally well known as an arts impressario and for the company he kept.
Wescott is a linking figure at the heart of the American literary scene in the middle of the 20th century. As a young writer in 1920s Paris, he associated with Hemingway, Gertrude Stein and F. Scott Fitzgerald. On his return to the States he was a central figure in New York's artistic and gay communities - W. H. Auden, Christopher Isherwood, Somerset Maugham, E. M. Forster, Jean Cocteau, Ford Madox Ford, Thornton Wilder, and many others were among his acquaintance.

Wescott by Lynes
Although only some of his work hints at his sexuality, he wrote a private journal from 1937 until the 1950s, focusing on his private life and relationships with fellow gay artists including lifelong partner Monroe Wheeler, photographer George Platt Lynes and Paul Cadmus – this was published in 1990 as Continual Lessons. His relationship with Monroe Wheeler lasted from 1919 until Wescott's death.
There was a Paul Cadmus painting that hung in his house. In it, three men, clearly arranged in a triangle, are sitting on a picnic blanket. The men are George Platt Lynes, Monroe Wheeler and Wescott himself. The picture below may be that painting:

1914 – Norman McLaren (d.1987) was a Scottish-born Canadian animator and film director known for his work for the National Film Board of Canada (NFB). He was a pioneer in a number of areas of animation and filmmaking, including drawn on film animation, visual music, abstract film, pixilation and graphical sound.
His awards included an Oscar for the Best Documentary in 1952 for Neighbours, a Silver Bear for best short documentary at the 1956 Berlin International Film Festival Rythmetic and a 1969 BAFTA Award for Best Animated Film for Pas de deux.
McLaren was born in Stirling, Scotland and studied set design at the Glasgow School of Art. His early experiments with film and animation included actually scratching and painting the film stock itself, as he did not have ready access to a camera. His earliest extant film, Seven Till Five (1933), a "day in the life of an art school" was influenced by Eisenstein and displays a strongly formalist attitude.
McLaren's next film, Camera Makes Whoopee (1935), was a more elaborate take on the themes explored in Seven Till Five, inspired by his acquisition of a Ciné-Kodak camera, which enabled him to execute a number of 'trick' shots. McLaren used pixilation effects, superimpositions and animation not only to display the staging of an art school ball, but also to tap into the aesthetic sensations supposedly produced by this event.
His two early films won prizes at the Scottish Amateur Film Festival, where fellow Scot and future NFB founder John Grierson was a judge. Grierson, who was at that time head of the British General Post Office film unit, saw another of his movies at an amateur film festival and took interest. He hired Mclaren for the GPO as soon as he completed his studies.
After making four films for the GPO in London, including Love on the Wing, McLaren moved to New York City in 1939, just as World War II was about to begin in Europe. He worked as a freelancer until 1941.
At the invitation of Grierson, he moved to Canada in 1941 to work for the National Film Board, to open an animation studio and to train Canadian animators. During his work for the NFB, McLaren created his most famous film, Neighbours (1952), which has won various awards around the world, including the Canadian Film Award and the Academy Award. Besides the brilliant combination of visuals and sound, the film has a very strong social message against violence and war. If you have never seen this brilliant 8 minute film, take the time to watch it below:
Not many Canadians realize that Neighbours garnered its Academy Award in the documentary category, or that McLaren's film was cut and expurgated in classrooms in many countries because of its resolute depiction of violence between two next-door families. The irony is that McLaren was the most gentle of figures, whose experiences filming the brutal fighting during the Spanish Civil War turned him into a lifelong pacifist.
In his early period in Canada, McLaren spent considerable time developing the animation department of the board. McLaren's presence at NFB inspired younger generations of animators, notably Oscar-winning producer, writer and director Derek Lamb, director Kaj Pindal and, perhaps most notably, the tragic, driven talent of Ryan Larkin. Also among his pupils are numbered James McKay of Toronto and George Dunning who designed the animation for the Beatles' film Yellow Submarine.
McLaren was gay, and his longtime companion was NFB director Guy Glover, whom he met at the ballet in London in 1937. The two were together until McLaren's death in 1987.

1932 – Joel Grey (born Joel David Katz) is an American actor, singer, dancer, and photographer. He is best known for portraying the Master of Ceremonies in both the stage and film versions of the Kander & Ebb musical Cabaret. He has won the Academy Award, Tony Award, and Golden Globe Award. He also originated the role of George M. Cohan in the musical George M! in 1973, and the Wizard of Oz in the musical Wicked. He also starred as Moonface Martin in the Broadway revivals of Anything Goes, and as Amos Hart in Chicago.
Grey was born in Cleveland, Ohio, the son of Goldie "Grace" (née Epstein) and Mickey Katz, a Jewish actor, comedian, and musician. He started his career in the Cleveland Play House's Curtain Pullers children's theatre program in the early 1940s, appearing in productions such as Grandmother Slyboots, Jack of Tarts and a lead role in the their mainstage production of On Borrowed Time.
Grey won an Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor in March 1973 for his performance as the Master of Ceremonies in the 1972 film version of Cabaret. His victory was part of a Cabaret near-sweep, which saw Liza Minnelli win Best Actress and Bob Fosse win Best Director.
In 1958, Grey married Jo Wilder; they divorced in 1982. Together, they had two children: actor Jennifer and chef James. He is also a photographer; his first book of photographs, Pictures I Had to Take, was published in 2003; its follow-up, Looking Hard at Unexpected Things, was published in 2006. His third book, 1.3 – Images from My Phone, a book of photographs taken with his camera phone, was published in 2009. An exhibit of his work was held in April 2011 at the Museum of the City of New York, titled "Joel Grey/A New York Life."
In January 2015, Grey opened up about his sexuality in an interview with People, stating: "I don't like labels, but if you have to put a label on it, I'm a gay man."

1955 – The American singer songwriter Michael Callen was born on this date (d.1993). He was a architect of the response to the AIDS crisis in the United States.
First diagnosed with "Gay related immune deficiency" (GRID) in 1982, Callen quickly became a leader in the response to the epidemic. He was a founding member of the People With AIDS Self-Empowerment Movement among other organizations, and he testified before the President's Commission on AIDS and both houses of the United States Congress. As a founding member of the New York Gay & Lesbian Community Center Board, and through his activities in other organizations around the country, he also became a leading voice in Gay and Lesbian politics.
In 1983, Callen co-authored the book How to Have Sex in an Epidemic: One Approach, which outlined the tenets of safe(r) sex. In 1990, he wrote Surviving AIDS, which received an Honorable Mention from the American Medical Writers Association.
He was a founding member of the Gay a cappella singing group The Flirtations, with whom he recorded two albums. He also had a solo album, Purple Heart (Significant Other Records, 1988), which a review in The Advocate called "the most remarkable Gay independent release of the past decade."
In partnership with Oscar winner Peter Allen and Marsha Melamet, he wrote his most enduring song, "Love Don't Need a Reason," which he sang frequently at Gay pride and AIDS-related events around the country. In 1993 he appeared in the films Philadelphia (as part of The Flirtations) and Zero Patience (appearing in drag as a singing virus, Miss HIV).
During the last year of his life, Michael worked furiously to record over 40 tunes; Twenty-nine of these compositions have been released posthumously as a double CD, titled Legacy, which garnered four Gay & Lesbian American Music Awards, including Album of the Year and Best Recording by a Male Artist. Legacy, recorded with the help of such prominent musicians as Holly Near, Cris Williamson, David Lasley, James Taylor, Greg Wells, k.d. lang, Fred Hersch, Arnold McCuller (Phil Collins) and Steve Sandberg (David Byrne, Ruben Blades) is a testament to Callen's commitment to the Gay and Lesbian community as well as his own passionate struggle for Gay identity and selfhood.
Callen died of AIDS-related complications in Los Angeles, California, at the age of 38.

1961 – Vincent Gallo is an American actor, director, musician and painter. Though he has had minor roles in mainstream films such as Goodfellas, Arizona Dream, The Funeral and Palookaville, he is most associated with independent movies, including Buffalo '66, which he wrote, directed, scored and starred in and The Brown Bunny, which he also wrote, directed, produced, starred in and photographed.
Gallo was born in Buffalo, New York. Both of his parents emigrated from Sicily. Gallo lived in New York City and from there traveled around most of Europe. In his adolescence, Gallo was frequently arrested for petty crimes and for indecent exposure, and has reminisced in print about his compulsive adolescent masturbatory habits. While living in New York, Gallo was a go-go dancer at various homosexual clubs and has also admitted to prostituting himself to homosexual clientele. "I did do sexual things for money. With men, I've never performed or had fellatio performed, but I did do jerk-off things. I would go in a peep booth and watch straight porn and get paid 5 or 10 dollars to have somebody watch me masturbate."
In the late 1970s and early 1980s, Gallo was a painter in the New York City art scene showing with famed art dealer Annina Nosei, performed in a rap duo and was part of the first hip-hop television broadcast Graffiti Rock, and played in an industrial band called Bohack which released an album titled It Took Several Wives. In the early 2000s, he released several solo recordings on WARP records. Gallo is known for his outspoken views and generally sarcastic nature, once stating: "I stopped painting in 1990 at the peak of my success just to deny people my beautiful paintings; and I did it out of spite."
Gallo has modeled, most notably for Calvin Klein, and been photographed by Richard Avedon. He first began painting, then racing motorcycles, and finally became an actor.
Gallo acted in the film Arizona Dream, with Johnny Depp, in the cult comedy Palookaville, and in The Funeral, and had a lead role in the film Truth or Consequences, N.M.
In 1998, his debut film Buffalo '66 was nominated for, but did not win, an award for "Best First Feature" at the Independent Spirit Awards.
In 2003, Gallo starred in and directed the film The Brown Bunny. The film, which chronicles a motorcycle racer's cross country road trip, co-starred Chloë Sevigny. The film, which contained a scene of Sevigny performing unsimulated oral sex upon Gallo, received overwhelmingly negative critical response to its initial cut and became a media scandal, in part due to Gallo's use of a still image from a sex scene on a promotional billboard. According to Andrea LeVasseur of the Allmovie, The Brown Bunny "premiered to much derision at the Cannes Film Festival."

Some random ass headcannons I have for Vox because I'm board and I have no one to share these with :P
(warning: this is pretty x reader but it's not mentioned if its romantic or platonic so you can go either way with lol)
1) vox's music test is like all over the place but you don't know it until you really get to know him lmfao
Ppl/bands I think he likes are:
Marilyn Monroe
Panic at the disgo
Will wood
Neaten apollo
TV girl(ironically)
Cavetown
neon trees
Connie Francis
Big mamma Thornton
Paul Anka
And Elvis presley(he's a BIG elvis fan but dosent rlly tell anyone lmfao)
When you first meet him, and miusic becomes the subject of the conversation he trys to mostly keep to talking about the more popular/modern miusic because yk that's his literal brand, the VEES are up to date with all the Morden shit, what would the Media think if they found out he likes miusic from the 50s?! (even though that's when he was alive)
But when you rlly get to know him(romantic or platonic) he gets more comfortable and casual with playing the miusic he really likes
I can also see him being such a Marilyn Monroe fan boy tbh and will play her miusic and rant about her movies lmfao
(of topic bonus: he's the kinda guy to know alot about behind the seens about films so when your watching a Marilyn Monroe film he's like "did you know that she improvised this hole seen??" or smt like that idk lmfao)
I also think he'd love it if you'd make a playlist for him, he'd act all chill about it when you tell him and he'd be like "oh, cool, thanks" but inside he'd feel so Fucking happy and would play it in the background of whatever he's doing with a little smile when he reminds himself you made this just for him <3

Portraits of Thomas Jefferson, Sorted generally in order of my preference.
Tumblr media
Edgehill Portrait by Gilbert Stuart
I quite like Gilbert Stuart's portraits, as a general rule. He did iconic portraits of Washington, Madison, Jay, Adamses, and Monroe https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gilbert_Stuart. I think I like that they seem more 'republican' (small r) than aristocratic, with their muted colors and generally conservative dress (except for military officers who were painted in uniform).
Tumblr media
In the version of the painting with a brown background from 1821, Jefferson's eyes are vibrant and captivating. The Edgehill portrait (blue background) was a family favorite and is generally agreed to be a good likeness.
Tumblr media
John Trumbull, 1788 (depicting Jefferson as he looked in 1776, as part of the process of creating his Declaration of Independence painting). My preference is generally for portraits of the younger Jefferson,  with the red hair, more brightly colored clothes, and generally more youthful and slender appearance.
Tumblr media
Charles Wilson Peale, 1791-1792
I like this portrait of a slightly younger Jefferson, featuring not-yet-totally gray hair. Love the upturned collar as well.
Tumblr media
John Trumbull, 1788. This Jefferson is much more European than the Trumbull's other depiction.
Tumblr media
Medallion Portrait by Gilbert Stuart
Similar to a Ceracchi bust, which was lost in a fire at the Library of Congress, this work portrays Jefferson in a style reminiscent of Rome. The fact that he and his family liked both 'Roman' versions may be because they appreciated the connection to Rome, or because, as they claimed, the likenesses were very good. Jefferson looks strong and muscular in this image.
Tumblr media
Official Presidential Portrait by Rembrandt Peale, 1800
This is a very common image of Jefferson, but I don't have very strong positive or negative feelings about it. It's certainly very familiar. I feel like he is looking directly at me, and generally I don't feel very good about that (for example when I was reading The Art of Power and had to flip the book over every time I put it down because I couldn't take Jefferson staring at me).
Tumblr media
Aquatint by Michel Sokolnicki (1760-1816), engraver, after Thaddeus Kosciuszko (1746-1817)
I was really hoping to like the Kosciuszko drawing, because wouldn't it be charming to have a portrait done by his friend. And I heard it was bad, but I was hoping it was bad in a likeable sort of way. But no, it's not charming; Jefferson looks rather angry and unlikeable. At least it got this quote from William Thornton:
"[W]hen I saw it, I did not wonder that he lost Poland—not that it is necessary a Genl should be a Painter, but he should be a man of such Sense as to discover that he is not a Painter."
Pasted from <https://www.monticello.org/research-education/thomas-jefferson-encyclopedia/jefferson-engraving-sokolnicki-engraving/>
Tumblr media
Rembrandt Peale, 1805
I've never really been fond of this portrait. Probably because of the coat. I suppose it doesn't mesh well with the image in my head of a lithe, slender Jefferson. I'd rather see whatever red/orange coat he's wearing underneath.
Tumblr media
Thomas Sully, 1821 (Copy by George Catlin). Jefferson wasn't captured in many full-length portraits; part of me wishes we had more. His head looks like it has been chopped off at the top, and he is hidden under many layers of clothing (and still wearing that hideous fur coat, or at least a similar one).
Tumblr media
Mather Brown, 1786
Generally agreed to be a bad likeness of Jefferson, and depicting him of an irregularly European character. However, at least the painting is pleasant to look at.
Tumblr media
By Charles Peale Polk, 1799-1820. It looks like the artist was working from one of Charles Wilson Peale's paintings, butchered Jefferson's hair, and dressed him in the outfit from Rembrandt Peale's presidential portrait.
Tumblr media
Engraving by John B. Neagle, 4 Nov 1796 - 17 Sep 1865
Copy after Bass Otis, 1784 - 1861
Jefferson looks pained in this portrait (done in 1816). His hair looks almost feminine and his face seems distorted. William Thornton described it as an "injustice".
Pasted from <https://npg.si.edu/object/npg_NPG.82.207>

What I'm about to write isn't new. It's new to me and maybe even to you as none of us has ever seen it before and at this precise second even it doesn't know what to expect other than the fact that it's been written before by one of those infinite chimpanzees jamming on infinite typewriters.
My name is "Ice" and I'm jammin on one of those infinite typewrtiters. I do this all day and all of the night. Somebody told me that I was the first to type the complete works of Norman Mailer which came as a big surprise to me. My work hit Norman when he was 23 and just back from the Phillipines and for the rest of his life, he simply unraveled all of it between drunken brawls and head butts.
I'd write more about Mailer's love/hate relationship with Vonnegut but unless I erased all of Vonnegut's back story in the Dresden slaughter house the story would emerge as it always does unless I throw a serial killer into the mix and set the whole thing not in Provincetown but in Rochester, New York where the serial killer is the ghost of George Eastman who fell into the sun after committing suicide misatakenly thinking that his job was done.
Then we sent the whole thing up to Mars where it landed within the biggest volcano in the universe which had taken on the personality of Jackleen Kennedy and didn't want to be bothered with this monkey, typewriter, space migration baloney because she was busy spitting up magma onto a landscape that she misttook for Marilyn Monroe which struck me a good idea for Mailer to write about even though I mistakingly thought that I had written everything (just like Eastman )but I got it done just in time for Norm to jot it down much later in his life and just in time to be misunderstood by almost everybody who read it except for Thornton Krell who understood it incorrectly according to me but got it right according to Miler who misunderstood both my interpretation as well as Krell's. Both Krell himself and Mailer were products of another monkey that I know named Evelyn who thinks she's God which is a lot more common of a misconception on we typewriter monkeys than the concept that we either Vince Lombardi or currently Taylor Swift...I concluded as I wrote this story for what I thought was the first time the second time.
Then it dawned in me like a bone strike to the noggin that I was simply writing about creativity and authorship while mixing in cosmic elements with literary influence literary. I touched upon existentialism and identity with characters like George Eastman and Marilyn Monroe taking on unique roles in an afterlife setting. It raises questions about identity, purpose, and the consequences of one's actions. All of this is going on during a period of space migration and touches base with the character Evelyn thinking she's God which introduces a theme of misconceptions about one's identity and capabilities while playing with the idea that plays with the idea of individuals seeing themselves in roles or positions that may not align with reality.  The mention of Thornton Krell and Norman Mailer's differing interpretations highlights the theme of misunderstanding. It explores how one's creation can be perceived differently by others, leading to varied interpretations.
None of which<I'm afarid is new although it may be new to you and me.
Creativity and Authorship: The narrative explores the concept of authorship, suggesting that your character Ice is one of the infinite typewriters generating stories. It delves into the idea of how authors' works can take unexpected directions and influence each other.
Literary Influences and Interactions: The mention of Norman Mailer, Kurt Vonnegut, and the imagined interactions between them suggests a theme of literary influences. It plays with the idea of how one writer's work can impact another's, either directly or indirectly.
Existentialism and Identity: There's a touch of existentialism in the narrative, with characters like George Eastman and Marilyn Monroe taking on unique roles in an afterlife setting. It raises questions about identity, purpose, and the consequences of one's actions.
Surrealism and Cosmic Elements: The story incorporates surreal and cosmic elements, from a serial killer ghost on Earth to a volcano with the personality of Jackie Kennedy on Mars. This adds a layer of unpredictability and fantastical exploration.
Misunderstanding and Interpretation: The mention of
Deity and Misconceptions: The character Evelyn thinking she's God introduces a theme of misconceptions about one's identity and capabilities. It plays with the idea of individuals seeing themselves in roles or positions that may not align with reality.
Temporal Complexity: The story involves time travel, revisiting the writing process, and the effects of a narrative across different periods. This adds a layer of temporal complexity to the themes.
These are just interpretations based on the elements present in your narrative. If there are specific themes you intended or if you'd like to explore any particular aspect further, feel free to share your thoughts!

That sounds like an interesting perspective on creativity and the idea that given enough time, random chance could produce any piece of writing. It's reminiscent of the concept often attributed to the infinite monkey theorem. The notion is that an infinite number of monkeys randomly typing on typewriters for an infinite amount of time would eventually produce the complete works of Shakespeare or any other given text.
The idea serves as a thought experiment to illustrate the vastness of possibilities in a random process. If you have any specific questions or if there's a particular direction you'd like to explore within this theme, feel free to let me know!
