My name is Joshua Topolsky and I have a new podcast called What Future.

But I want to tell you that I'm being forced by my producer to record a promo telling you about my show.

And I'm not trying to force you to listen to it.

And maybe you're not interested in internet culture and the future of life on planet Earth.

And why John Carpenter movies are so good.

You may just want to listen to a podcast about, I don't know, sports or whatever Joe Rogan talks about.

And that's fine, you know, no judgment.

But if you like what you're hearing and I know that you do, you can listen to all of what future on the I Heart Radio app, Apple podcasts or wherever you get your podcasts.

The podcast and that's what you really missed brings you back to the choir room for a gloriously gleeky rewatch of all six masterfully musical seasons of Glee.

Join cast members Kevin MacKale and Jenna Uschkewitz for never before heard stories from the cast, crew, celebrities and you, the fans from McKinley High to New York City, from the choir room to nationals and from the Super Bowl to a world tour.

Listen to and that's what you really missed on the I Heart Radio app, Apple podcasts or wherever you get your podcasts.

and change the film industry, but that is not at all what we're talking about today, we bring this up because in one of his interviews, Richard Edland, who is one of the great four runners of visual effects, at least in the modern era,

and he's really passionate, himself as a kid running around with a camera, and he, I don't remember these that quote, but he says, you know, like looking like I was Ouija, and I was like, oh, I forgot I had Ouija, my list.

Ouija, if that name is not familiar to you, is a fairly famous photographer.

He's often cited as having been a really strong influence on the work of artists like Dion Arbus and Andy Warhol, but on a bigger scale because he's pretty unique in that a lot of people saw his work without knowing who he was, and he was also getting attention from the art world.

He influenced the entire world really in how New York City was viewed by people, both people who lived in the city and people outside of it because he really showed the city through his lens in a way that was very unvarnished and raw in stark black and white.

So that is who we are talking about today.

So he's known as Ouija today, he was born Usher Fellig in Zola Chipp, which at the time was an Austria hungry now it's in Ukraine, that was on June 12, 1899, and when he was seven, his father Bernard left for the United States, so Usher and his mother and his three siblings stayed behind, they were there for the next four years while Bernard was working on all kinds of jobs just tried to get settled enough that he could send for the rest of the family and have them join him in the
