Episode 149 In this Arteetude podcast, Schlich informs about the Basic Income for the Arts (BIA) research programme in which he is participating as a member of the control group.
The BIA is a pilot research programme which will inform future government policy on how best to support Ireland’s artists and creative arts workers.
The scheme was open for applications from 12 April to 12 May 2022.
Background to the BIA pilot scheme
The Arts and Culture Taskforce, established in September 2020, was tasked by Minister Martin with producing a report to include a set of recommendations on how best the arts and culture sector could adapt and recover from the COVID-19 pandemic.
The number 1 recommendation from the taskforce report Life Worth Living Report was to pilot a Basic Income scheme for a 3-year period in arts, culture, audio-visual and live performance and events sectors.
As part of the National Economic Recovery Plan launched on 1 June 2021, Minister Martin secured a commitment from Government for a Basic Income Pilot Scheme for artists.

Episode 148 In this Arteetude podcast, Schlich performs his campfire version of THE LOGICAL SONG. Originally by Supertramp.., which Schlich performed and is considered by him as a psychedelic version with a reference to Surrealism as a healing tool to overcome anxiety in uncertain times like today.
"The Logical Song" is a song by English rock group Supertramp that was released as the lead single from their album Breakfast in America in March 1979. It was written primarily by the band's Roger Hodgson, who based the lyrics on his experiences of being sent away to boarding school for ten years.
The Logical Song is as well about human nature and growing up. when we are young, we are so idealistic and fascinated by everything and have such creative, beautiful and pure thoughts. but as we grow, society forces it out of us.

Episode 147 In this Arteetude podcast, Detlef Schlich performs his campfire version of MAD WORLD. Originally by Tears for Fears.
Episode 146 In this Arteetude podcast, Detlef Schlich performs his campfire version of MAD WORLD. Originally by Tears for Fears. It is a mash-up of Schlich's "People are running in circles" inspired by Tears for Fears "Mad World", which Schlich performed and considered as a psychedelic version with a reference to Surrealism as a healing tool to overcome anxiety in uncertain times like today.
This song, published in 1982 by Tears for Fears is about a depressed young person who feels out of place in this world. He sees life as empty and looks for ways to escape the pain. The line, "The dreams in which I'm dying are the best I've ever had" suggests thoughts of suicide, but according to Roland Orzabal, who wrote the lyrics, it relates to the psychologist Arthur Janov's idea that our most dramatic dreams release the most tension. So, the guy in the song isn't necessarily looking to die - he wakes up from morbid, lucid dreams feeling better.

Episode 146 In this Arteetude podcast, Detlef Schlich performs his campfire version of PURPLE RAIN. Originally written by Prince.
'Purple Rain' was originally written as a country song and was intended to be a collaboration with Fleetwood Mac singer Stevie Nicks.
According to Nicks, she received a 10-minute instrumental version of the song from Prince, with a request to write the lyrics, but she felt overwhelmed by the task.
She later said: "I listened to it and I just got scared. I called him back and said, 'I can't do it. I wish I could. It's too much for me.'"
Prince explained the meaning of 'Purple Rain' as:
"When there's blood in the sky – red and blue = purple... purple rain pertains to the end of the world and being with the one you love and letting your faith/god guide you through the purple rain."
The title track of Prince's previous album, 1999, also included similar references to an ominous purple sky ("...could have sworn it was Judgment Day, the sky was all purple...").Purple is also a notable color in religious imagery.

When I was young, it seemed that life was so wonderful
A miracle, oh, it was beautiful, magical
And all the birds in the trees, well they'd be singing so happily
Oh, joyfully, oh, playfully watching me
But then they sent me away to teach me how to be sensible
Logical, oh, responsible, practical
Then they showed me a world where I could be so dependable
Oh, clinical, oh, intellectual, cynical
There are times when all the world's asleep
The questions run too deep
For such a simple man
Won't you please, please tell me what we've learned?
I know it sounds absurd
Please tell me who I am
I said, now, watch what you say, they'll be calling you a radical
A liberal, oh, fanatical, criminal
Oh, won't you sign up your name? We'd like to feel you're acceptable
Respectable, oh, presentable, a vegetable
Oh, take, take, take it, yeah
But at night, when all the world's asleep
The questions run so deep
For such a simple man
Won't you please (oh, won't you tell me)
Please tell me what we've learned?
(Can you hear me?) I know it sounds absurd
(Oh, won't you tell me) please tell me who I am
Who I am, who I am, who I am
Ooh
Hey
'Cause I was feeling so logical
Yeah
D-D-D-D-D-D-D-Digital
Yeah, one, two, three, five
Oh, oh, oh, oh, yeah
Ooh, it's getting unbelievable
Yeah
Getting, getting, yeah, yeah

People are running in circles and dying and running and dying
People are running in circles and running and dying and running
All around me are familiar faces
Worn-out places, worn-out faces
Bright and early for their daily races
Going nowhere, going nowhere
Their tears are filling up their glasses
No expression, no expression
Hide my head I want to drown my sorrow
No tomorrow, no tomorrow
And I find it kind of funny
I find it kind of sad
The dreams in which I'm dying are the best I've ever had
I find it hard to tell you 'cause I find it hard to take
When people run in circles it's a very, very
Mad world
Mad world
Mad world
Mad world
Children waiting for the day they feel good
Happy birthday, happy birthday
Made to feel the way that every child should
Sit and listen, sit and listen
Went to school and I was very nervous
No one knew me, no one knew me
Hello teacher tell me what's my lesson
Look right through me, look right through me
And I find it kind of funny
I find it kind of sad
The dreams in which I'm dying are the best I've ever had
I find it hard to tell you 'cause I find it hard to take
When people run in circles it's a very, very
Mad world
Mad world
Mad world
Mad world
People are running in circles and dying and running and dying
People are running in circles and running and dying and running
People are running in circles and dying and running and dying
People are running in circles and running and dying and running

I find it kind of sad
The dreams in which I'm dying are the best I've ever had
