Episode 85: Selling to Gen X Without Selling Out 54:17

2M ago54:17

54:17

Gen X was coming of age during cynicism and ironic detachment. A DIY attitude rooted in authenticity coupled with increasing access to personal tech and an explosion of choices in alternative media. And most importantly, lack of trust in corporations. Companies (and their marketing departments) had to think of ways to sell to those who didn’t want …

Record albums. You know 'em. You love 'em. But do your favorites fall short when art overshadows music (or vice versa)?

Did you ever look at a building with a business inside and think, “Yeah…that totally used to be something else” and wonder how you knew that?

February 28: This week marks a quirky moment in pop culture (and soft drink) history. Michael Jackson's hair caught fire back in 1984 while shooting an ad for Pepsi, which was, to put it mildly, a production challenge.

In this episode we continue with the second half of our conversation about Warhol’s anti-films. We talk about lonesome cowboys, sexploitation, screen tests, and how the Factory scene was ripped off for a much more mainstream Oscar-winning movie — which didn’t make Andy very happy. We then wrap-up discussing films influenced by his approach. - - - -…

Peel-away bananas. Working zippers. Andy Warhol elevated music album art to a new level.

This episode wraps-up the chronicle of The Factory’s downward slide. Drella has made the scene at The Factory and there has been some fallout.

We wrap-up the second of our two episodes by talking about just how high (pun intended) the Silver Factory could get.

Pepsi announced it’s moving forward by moving backwards (sort of), returning to more of a traditional look for their logo and cans. (Think black. It's a slimming color.)
