For more than twenty years, Paul Rudnick has been one of Americas most prominent and beloved humorists. From his acclaimed, much performed plays to his screenplays of wildly popular films to his regular contributions to Premiere magazine and The New Yorker, he has established himself as a comic genius whose talents transcend any one genre. Now, in this much overdue essay collection, he trains his wickedly perceptive eye on all manner of side-splitting subjects, from living in a series of increasingly bizarre, altogether fabulous apartments in New York City; to cavorting with a cast of colorful artists who have to be read to be believed; to dealing with some of the most perplexing yet endearing personalities in show business; to handling the finer points of putting up with, and loving, ones family, however out of their gourds they may be; and, above all, to keeping ones tongue sharp in the midst of lifes many obstacles and hilarities.

Eugeniusz Rudnick (*1933): Dixi, per nastro magnetico (1967). Realized in the Experimental Studio of the Polish Radio, Warsaw. Cover image: painting by Gerhard Richter. The material used for this etude consists of electronic sounds of the type of "sonorous mixtures" varying in density and intensiveness. They appear in blocks of different pitches which either diffuse into each other, or are used to create sharp collisions of complex sonority. The latter technique dominates the middle part of the composition. In principle, the entire sound material is of continuous quality. The sequences and pitch relations inside the diffusing blocks depend on the aleatoric events resulting from the accepted technology. I did not intend to compose melodic structures. My idea was to create the impression of the continuity of events of different tone color and intensiveness, as well as to show the refereces of these "qualities" to each other. These are the assumptions on which the composition's form is based. The entire work is constructed by the sonorous material itself, depending on its movement and development in time. The intended simplicity and ostensible meagerness of sound material, as well as the alleged scarcity of musical events are to attract the listener's attention to the development of form, rather than to relations between particular events. This also enables the listener to predict forthcoming events, if only to reveal that no such events follow. The composition has the form <b>...</b>

In the Family is a documentary film about predicting breast and ovarian cancer, the consequences of knowing, and the women who live with the risk. Beginning with her story of testing positive for the familial breast cancer mutation (BRCA), Filmmaker Joanna Rudnick chronicles the lives of several women currently undergoing the process of genetic testing following them from their decision to seek testing, through the testing process, and in the aftermath when they are coming to terms with the information they receive. These stories of the first generation of women to live with the knowledge that they are predisposed to a life-threatening disease will teach us what it means to survive a diagnosis of high risk without being consumed or defined by it. They will help us to understand the psychological, legal, ethical, cultural and social complexities of genetic testing for a mutation, which affects the entire family, for which there is no cure, and wherein the only treatments currently available involve enormous quality-of-life sacrifices.
