FSG Presents: Ground Up & Consumed

Featuring Michael Idov and some of the nice folks who contributed to Ad Nauseam: A Survivor’s Guide to American Consumer Culture. This is an evening about the American Dream, how it woos you, and how it can bite you in the ass.

Saturday, 5/16/09
8PM - 9PM

Featuring:

DAMIAN CHADWICK is a writer and comedian based in New York. He writes for the Upright Citizens Brigade house sketch team Gramps and performs around town with the long-form improv group Sherpa.

GAYLORD FIELDS, the senior editor at AOL Music, has previously worked at Rolling Stone and Spin. He also currently hosts a free-form radio program on WFMU in Jersey City every Sunday evening. 

CARRIE McLAREN is the editor of Ad Nauseam. For over a decade, she published Stay Free!, a nonprofit magazine focused on American media and consumer culture. Her latest venture is Adult Education, a monthly "useless lecture series" that she curates for Union Hall in Park Slope, Brooklyn.
