• @markam keith adams from montclair, nj Thanks for your comment. Perhaps you might want to listen again to hear Ann Temkin and Dr. Eric Kandel talk on the new direction taken by art after photography was born. As for Muybridge and Marey, sadly, they did fall to the cutting room floor after the first assembly ran many minutes over. We were broken up about it, too

• @spurn from NYC Thanks for listening! It is the Debussy Martyre de Saint Sebastien. Written in 1911, the work — a five-act musical mystery play on the subject of Saint Sebastian - was produced in collaboration with Gabriele d'Annunzio. Debussy's contribution was a large-scale score of incidental music for orchestra and chorus, with solo vocal parts. Both Debussy and D'Annunzio (by the way) were present at the premiere of Stravinsky's The Rite of Spring in Paris on May 29.1913.

• Thanks very much for your comment! FYI, later in the program we feature Schoenberg, Freud, Jung, Duchamp, Stravinsky, Nijinsky and cite Einstein, Khlebnikov, Proust and many others as having been central to thinking in this year. We agree, it was a global phenomenon!
