Syracuse native Barron Bell pursuing animated history series
Barron Bell of Syracuse created Animax Ltd in Virginia Beach to develop 58th Street a cartoon about four kids and a squirrel traveling back in time to visit famous figures. The project aims to teach African American and other ethnic histories with wholesome messages and strong merchandising potential including dolls and lunch boxes. Bell, 27, began developing the idea five years ago after teaching in Syracuse and worrying about crude shows popular with youths.

REM Ups the Experiment With New Sound on Up
REM releases its 11th album Up without Bill Berry and employs drum machines and guest drummers. The set marks a bold departure with artful textures, shifting from traditional rock to ambient, headphone-friendly arrangements. Some tracks falter but most showcase Stipe’s croon and Buck’s guitar textures, yielding a rewarding but divisive record.
