Scipione & Goldberg: "Gesture and Grid"

by Tris McCall
published 2026-03-04

Even sober Biblical scholars often call Ezekiel mad. He is the Prophet with the flimsiest tether to material reality. The Book of Ezekiel contains many wild visions that, millennia after their composition, retain the power to startle. His images of the Divine are often downright terrifying. Much of his narrative reads like an extended hallucination.

Lighty's Corner: April 13, 2026

I’m one of those guys who hates it when people say that rock and roll is dead. That there’s no good new music today. I actually think there may be more good music now than ever, but it’s just harder to find. Since we get a ton of new music sent to us at New Jersey Stage each week, I decided to try something new - a recorded DJ hosted radio show and a column spotlighting new works. The plan is to have a new one every two weeks.
