Eszter is an actor/musician, gaining initial fame starring in Jim Jarmusch&#39;s first major film Stranger Than Paradise (1984). She has released four albums of often autobiographical songs since 1998.

PEL Presents Philosophy vs. Improv #44: Stand-Up vs. Improv w/ Matty Goldberg
</h5>
<div class="text-line-clamp text-line-clamp-3 balanced-p fs-8 text-muted text-break">
As our first stand-up comedian (albeit one on sabbatical) guest, Matty (http://www.mattygoldberg.com/) has inspired us to largely ignore the philosophy on this one and instead look at these two different ways of producing comedy. Do the motivations of improv folks and comics differ? Which group is more annoying?

In particular, his poem “Sunday Morning” seems to suggest that the rhythm of the natural world—if we give it enough rapt attention—is as good as any chant or prayer. But can a return to nature worship solve the problem of nihilism, once monotheism has been eclipsed by modernity? Are memory a...
