This composition inspired multi-disciplinary artist Will Chase to write a screenplay, which will be the foundation for an upcoming short film. Both Kurt and Will join Garrett (1:02:00) to unpack the inspirations and challenges of this work, along with its context within the framework of \"classical\" music. Scott highlights a work by Phillip Glass and cites excerpts from \"Stuff White People Like\", Garrett addresses opera's latest use of blackface, and the guys talk \"big steps\" in the finale. \r\n\r\nPlaylist:\r\n\r\nJackson 5 - \"Never Can Say Goodbye\"\r\nGil Scott-Heron - \"Whitey On the Moon\"\r\nThe Church - \"Under The Milky Way\"\r\nAbel Selaocoe - \"Qhawe\" (Performance Excerpt: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zhFgeNW6D1g)\r\nperf.
