As artists, many of us honor the age-old tradition of creating our work with nothing more than our hands, a few tools, and materials that have stood the test of time. Yet we also live in a high-tech world, and that impacts all of us. How artists view technology ranges from a necessary evil to a full embrace of its creative possibilities. But we should all understand that technology itself is not a new factor in making art. Today we'll look at some of the ways technology has been used over time in art and ways to think about it in our current world. Dealing with technology can feel daunting and unnatural to the way you approach your work or it may be something you embrace enthusiastically. But it impacts all of us in life as well as in art. For artists, technology represents an intersection of scientific knowledge and creative output. It means knowledge that expands the known boundaries of what can be done in the name of creativity. But thinking of technology as something only relevant to artists today does not consider the long history of technical advances that aid in creative production. A good example is the use of the camera obscura during the Renaissance by artists like Leonardo da Vinci to understand and depict perspective in painting. In addition, there have been countless advances in art materials, tools, and equipment that make our creative lives more expansive today. Many artists today embrace new forms of technology in their work, including digital media, 3-D printing, and Artificial Intelligence. Yet traditional forms of art in which we see the hand of the artist will always have human appeal, and it's important to not feel pushed into technology to feel your art is relevant. But whatever approach is right for you, being open to the changes in art that result from technology, being curious and appreciative of its place in the flow of art ideas over time is important.

Episode 244: Abstract Painting: Exploring Media

The Messy Studio with Rebecca Crowell

Each type of painting media that an abstract artist uses has specific qualities that make it suitable for certain approaches-- and less so for others. As part of your studio practice, it's important to understand and work with the qualities of different media rather than trying to push against their nature. And it is also exciting to explore outside your typical media to see what each has to offer. Today we'll look at several media used for abstract painting—oil, acrylic, encaustic, watercolor, and mixed media approaches and touch on the benefits and challenges of each. A basic art theory concerns the idea that each art media has unique characteristics to explore and exploit. There is also plenty of middle ground; various media lend themselves to layering, for example. But in exploring various media for different purposes, you may discover new ideas and directions for your work. Water based media tend to offer possibilities for spontaneity, while oil painting offers special luminosity of color. The material qualities of various paints also play a special role in abstraction, when color, line, and physical texture can be important be an important presence for their own sakes. Along with choosing painting media that is in line for your intentions, the tools associated with the medium are a consideration. Experimenting with tools that are outside traditional choices can be exciting, but if you are truly a brush painter, for example, you would probably work best with a fluid media like oil, acrylic, watercolor, and gouache rather than thicker media like oil mixed with cold wax medium, or encaustic. Exploring these different media is exciting, and often leads to a cross-pollination of ideas. For example, you might work through several iterations of an image using water-based media that sets up quickly, and then moving some of those ideas into oil. Or you might increase the scale of a small acrylic study to a large mixed media piece. A shape that you play with in acrylic may take on more depth or dimensionality when you build it up in layers of oil paint. Each medium has distinct effects and potential.

Episode 243: Being Seen

A basic human desire is to truly be seen. We long to be understood by other people, acknowledged, appreciated, and accepted for who we are. As an artist, you have a literal way of being seen, of communicating who you are in a visual way. The hope that people will be able to connect with you through your work is a basic motivation for making art. Today we'll talk about the desire to be seen and understood by the people who view your work. This desire probably goes back to childhood when we bring our drawings to our parents, saying “look what I made.” At a young age we can either be pleased or discouraged by the response. We either feel seen and appreciated, or we realize the person we're showing our work to doesn't understand. Many children leaearly to follow certain rules for visual communication in hopes of a positive response. They start to rely on recognizable symbols like houses that are square with a triangle roof and flying birds that look like the letter V. But this sets up a disconnect between the child's original idea and how they feel they need to portray that idea. Those of us who do continue trying to communicate in personal ways through visual art can have a relationship with those who view our work that is energizing and at times profound. Art can transcend so many of the social and geographic barriers that we have such as age, social status, and culture, and it can even communicate across time. For your work to allow others to see you honestly, it needs to be authentic and motivated from personal meaning. As artists we have an ability to connect with other people, whether friends or strangers, in a purely visual way. On the other hand, doing work to please your audience, rather than opening honest interaction, is rarely satisfying in a deep way. The more meaningful your work is to you as an artist, the more satisfying it will feel in terms of the basic desire to be seen. Thanks to everyone who has been sharing the show and donating!

As artists we know it's important to be open to new ideas and changes—but for marketing purposes we're also expected to have an identifiable style that is consistent and recognizable. This basic dilemma is frustrating when you have wide-ranging interests and like to explore new ideas or media. Your work can appear to be “all over the place” and seem to lack focus. At the other extreme, being overly concerned that your work is consistent can inhibit your growth as an artist. These are issues that are contained in the idea of personal voice, in which you can have flexibility and change while working within the realm of what is meaningful in your work, that is, your core ideas and content. The search for basic intentions is an ongoing aspect of creative process but is more involved as an artist in is the beginning stages. The stage of incubation of core ideas may take years, and during that time, exploration and experimentation are essential at that time. Marketing enters the picture when galleries and collectors need your work to be consistent and within parameters that define your style and approach. This allows them to market your work as a sort of brand. But allowing for your growth and changes when dealing with galleries is important. Growth that is the kind that evolves organically over time is typically more accepted. For you as the artist, understanding what makes your work consistent and building from that base is helpful. Working in series is an excellent path to this discovery. This issue of consistency and growth is of those balancing acts that creativity requires, and it means we find individual solutions to that balance. Thinking of consistency as continuity and organic growth is a helpful idea that encompasses change and flexibility. Your work can move forward yet also have common threads. Those threads are what makes your work you, and unique. Thanks to everyone who has been sharing the show and donating!

Adina is from West Orange, New Jersey, and is now living in the East Village of NYC. She founded Knock Knock, Give a Sock, a Non-Profit focused on Humanizing Homelesness one sock at a time. KKGS is a nonprofit that collects socks for the homeless while also building relationships between neighbors living in homes and in shelters by bringing them together for dinner. Adina has also authored 2 children's books on homelessness. Adina believes these books and dinners can help humanize homelessness and change the way we interact with our neighbors on the streets. She also adds: “One cold night in November, I was handing out sandwiches to people experiencing homelessness in NYC when one man approached me. “It's great that you're giving out sandwiches,” he said, “but one thing we really need is socks, especially as winter approaches.” Here I was, sandwiches in hand, assuming I knew the best way to help people. In reality, helping is about listening, and hearing the needs of different communities. It was a powerful lesson, and I wanted to put it into action. I began that night, with a simple step: I went door-to-door on my NYU dorm floor and knocked on everyone's door. I asked if they would donate just one pair of their own socks to someone experiencing homelessness. To my surprise I got over 40 pairs of socks in a single night, from a single floor. The next morning I walked out of my dorm room to find a huge pile of socks in front of my door from other people who had heard of what happened. It started small, but I knew it was such a simple concept that it could easily be grown. College students love to do good, but sometimes they need a literal knock on their door to do so. And most everyone has an extra pair of socks they can donate. That's when the initiative Knock Knock, Give a Sock was created.”###Your hosts of Are You Waiting for Permission? are Meridith Grundei and Joseph Bennett.

Why Isn't Organic Food The Majority Of What We Buy? Ronnie Cummins• http://www.organicconsumers.org • Book - Grassroots Rising  #RonnieCummins #ConsumerActivist #PoliticalChange Ronnie Cummins is an author of the book; Grassroots Rising: A Call to Action on Climate, Farming, Food, and a Green New Deal and has spent over 50 years as a professional activist starting with anti-war activism . A practical, shovel-ready plan for anyone wondering what they can do to help address the global climate crisis. Grassroots Rising is a passionate call to action for the global body politic, providing practical solutions for how to survive―and thrive―in catastrophic times. Author Ronnie Cummins, founder and director of the Organic Consumers Association, aims to educate and inspire citizens worldwide to organize and become active participants in preventing ecological collapse.This book offers a blueprint for building and supercharging a grassroots Regeneration Movement based on: • Consumer activism• Farmer innovation• Political change• Regenerative finance Cummins asserts that the solution lies right beneath our feet and at the end of our forks through the transformation of our broken food system. Using regenerative agriculture practices that restore our agricultural and grazing lands, we can sequester massive amounts of carbon in the soil. Coupled with an aggressive transition toward renewables, he argues that we have the power to not only mitigate and slow down climate change, but actually reverse global warming by strengthening our infrastructure. Grassroots Rising shows that a properly organized and executed Regeneration Revolution can indeed offer realistic climate solutions while also meeting our everyday needs. “This is a ‘good news' instructional book for Regeneration, a plan of action for the United States and the world to transition to climate stability, peace, justice, health, prosperity, cooperation, and participatory democracy.”―Ronnie Cummins Ronnie Cummins is co-founder and International Director of the Organic Consumers Association (OCA) and its Mexico affiliate Via Organica. (OCA) is a non-profit, U.S. based network of two million consumers, dedicated to safeguarding organic standards and promoting a healthy, just, and sustainable system of agriculture and commerce. The OCA's primary strategy is to work on national and global campaigns promoting health, justice, and sustainability that integrate public education, marketplace pressure, media work, litigation, and grassroots lobbying. Cummins has been active as a writer and activist since the 1960s, with extensive experience in public education, grassroots mobilization, and marketplace pressure campaigns. Over the past two decades he has served as director of US and international campaigns dealing with sustainable agriculture issues including food safety, genetic engineering, factory farming, and global warming. From 1992-98 Cummins served as a campaign director for the Foundation on Economic Trends in Washington, D.C. In 1998, Cummins co-founded the Organic Consumers Association, the largest network of organic consumers in the USA.

It's an exercise in receiving the unexpected.”  –Kristin Van Tassel In this episode of Deviate, Rolf and Kristin discuss being in DC, living in Kansas, and Kristin's family trip to Mexico using migrant-economy buses (1:30); how seeking international restaurants and grocery stores at home can be a window into distant cultures (8:00); Kristin's motivation to learn Spanish in middle age, and how it connects to her perspective as a teacher (16:00); Kristin's harrowing experience of getting lost on a run in Nairobi in 1990, and how getting lost in a place is a way of experiencing it in a deeper way (20:30); how Kristin experienced the country and culture of Moldova through soups and salads while being hosted there by a former student (34:30); and how to stay open to being lost without compromising yourself, and embrace unfamiliar languages as a traveler and learner (41:00). Kristin Van Tassel teaches writing and American literature at Bethany College in Lindsborg, Kansas. She writes essays and poetry about place, teaching, motherhood, and travel.

Carrying out a creative project is rarely a straightforward process. A basic aspect of creative work is the way that ideas evolve during the process, rather than being known from the beginning. The outcome is unknown as the artist dives in, and the end is often surprising and exciting for its creator. Yet understanding and accepting this process is very difficult for many people. It seems to be human nature to know where we are heading when we set out, to have a goal and a plan and a roadmap. Today we'll talk about the importance of the unknown in creative work. We call this aspect of the creative process a lot of things-- play, trusting the process, being in the flow or the zone, spontaneity, and intuition. Operating with an unknown outcome may come easily to you or it may be a challenge. Why is it so hard to shift into this mode? It's not something we learn growing up, because throughout our school years we achieve by following a logical progression of ideas with a predictable and expected result. Although there are certainly basic things to learn about art, this mechanical approach can suck the joy out of the process and reduce it to just another subject to be rotely learned. As adult, mature artists, we need to set aside the idea that there is an established path to our goals. It's also true that there is indeed a place for having intentions and basic ideas in mind, and some amount of planning depending on your style and the materials you work with. You need to be flexible about this, and allow time for both spontaneity, and some from analysis and planning. In the big picture, it's good to have an idea of what is important and meaningful in your work. But for an individual piece, in the moment, “where am I going” need only be about the very immediate future, responding to what can be the next move or set of moves. Having the fortitude to keep going when you don't know the final outcome has dimensions beyond the studio, to life itself—one of those lessons that creative practice can teach us if we pay attention.

Privacy and solitude are important factors in producing creative work, allowing an artist to feel secure to explore and take the time needed to develop meaningful work without judgement or observation. Yet the outside world can sometimes push against these needs. It may seem hard to set the boundaries around your studio time, to preserve the time and space you need to focus exclusively on your work without distractions. Today we will talk about setting boundaries around your privacy as an artist and what you choose to share of your unique creative space. Having any other person in the studio, even someone who is respectful and quiet, means your attention is divided. Making art requires complete focus, and disruptions and distractions can derail your process. You never know when you'll enter a state of flow or when you'll be challenged by something that needs your complete attention. Not being secure in your privacy is therefore unsettling. Making art is also very personal, and when you're alone in a private setting you are most in touch with your inner self. Of course, studio visits are not always a bad thing. It can be very positive to have other artists come to visit, or to hold an open studio and welcome in the public. But most of us want control over the timing and duration of that, in order to guard privacy and working time. Along with people from the art world, many artists also have friends and family with whom they need to set limits. It may be hard for non-artists to understand how much you need privacy in the studio. For all issues relating to privacy, the most important thing is to figure out what your boundaries are. Who and what will you let in? What makes you uncomfortable and how can you change that? How much of a sense of privacy do you need to create your best work? It is always your right to maintain your privacy however you see fit. Thanks to everyone who has been sharing the show and donating!

Para abrir el menú de esta semana vamos a aprovechar una efeméride muy redonda. Este fin de semana se cumplen 150 años de la proclamación de la I República española. Todo un acontecimiento en nuestra historia que, si bien no duró mucho, apenas dos años, dejó huella dentro ese apasionante periodo que es el Sexenio Democrático. Todo esto nos los contará Daniel Aquillué, doctor en Historia Contemporánea, quien además aprovechará para presentarnos su obra más reciente: 'España con honra'. Un sugerente libro donde se reivindica el habitualmente denostado siglo XIX español. Como segunda propuesta, Eulalia y Adolfo se nos van a la guerra, a la buena, a la de Troya, y nos hablan de sus vencedores y vencidos y de lo que se ha contado sobre ellos en el cine, y de cuando se volvieron a sus casas, como ese Ulises que la había armado gorda con el dichoso caballo. Y por salir, salen hasta los Coen, Woody Allen y Los Simpson... Cerraremos con el capítulo final de Allende los Mares sobre las pandemias.

Así que hoy retomamos las historias de traiciones, trifulcas y amoríos que protagonizaron los olímpicos, salpicando por el camino a los desafortunados humanos que se los encontraban. Esta vez hablaremos de Dionisio, Apolo, Artemisa, Poseidón, Hermes, Hades y Perséfone. Tras escuchar el primer audio, veréis que le pondremos un reto al bueno de Adolfo Suárez, y a Eulalia, por supuesto: hablar de las apariciones del panteón griego en el celuloide.

As artists we all recognize that intuition plays a role in what we do, but what that role is can seem mysterious and elusive. Like many concepts in art, we tend to use the words intuitive and intuition loosely because they defy exact description. But a closer look may help you understand its place in your own way of working, and to better access its power. If trusting intuition doesn't come easily to you, you are not alone. Today we will talk about what intuition is, why it can be challenging to trust, and ways to nurture it in your work. The word ‘intuition' has its roots in the Latin intueri which means ‘to look at or toward' or ‘to contemplate'. This points to the foundation of intuition, which requires an openness, an awareness of your true self, your experiences, and emotions, that you can use in your work. When you have that base, the inner knowing that we call intuition can be accessed. Intuition also comes from being in the moment, and tends to motivate us toward action and decisions. It is motivating and energizing, but it can be counteracted by second guessing and hesitation. Rational thought is important too of course, the need to step back to analyze how things are going. We need critical thinking to improve and evaluate our work. But in creative work, the original impulse is intuitive. When your work comes from your deepest self, that is rarely a purely rational or intellectual source. Left-brain thinking can support and help develop the original idea. But what gets you rolling, provides the excitement and energy, is generally not primarily intellectual, but instead emotional or experiential. Many artists want to be able to develop and to trust their intuition but they feel inhibited by their rational minds, or by fears of being judged if they allow their inner selves to be more visible. Making art sometimes from as pure an intutive source as possible is a good way to develop your intuition. It's important to honor and nurture intuition however you can access it, whether in small decisions or in larger, more inspiring ways that get to your deeper sense of self-expression.

Artistic expression is driven by an inner need to be your authentic self, to express what is true and unique in your individual experiences and thoughts. That may sound straightforward, but as we know, there is nothing easy about finding the creative voice that is yours, dedicating your time and energy to its expression, or putting the work that results out into the world. Creative expression challenges us to be honest, to focus, face our fears, and to understand and cope with failure. We can feel alone in this journey, but countless other people in all fields of endeavor have followed their creative urges and found a way forward. Today we are excited to welcome our special guest -- author, entrepreneur and award-winning graphic designer Joey Cofone. Joey has designed and art directed over 100 products from zero to launch. His design work has been featured in Fast Company, Bloomberg, New York Magazine, Newsweek, Bon Appétit, and more. He is also the author of the exciting new book that we're going to be talking about today, “The Laws of Creativity”, which has been called “a comprehensive exploration of the curiosity, discipline, playfulness, and persistence necessary to usher new ideas into the world.” Joey discusses various aspects of nurturing creativity, starting with challenges inhibitions instilled in us as children, such as feeling we need to know the outcome of what we take on, or hesitating to question established rules. He talks about many aspects of working on your creative mindset as the foundation of making art and getting it out into the world, including understanding risk-taking and fear, and the importance of truly enjoying what you do and the joys of creativity.

Si la semana pasada hablamos de las dos primeras Guerras serviles, en esta segunda y última entrega de Por los dioses que dedicamos a las más conocidas rebeliones de esclavos, hablaremos de la más relevante de todas, aquella que lideró Espartaco. Sergio Alejo y Ángel Portillo serán de nuevo los encargados de guiarnos por el periplo que llevaría a miles de esclavos a poner en serios apuros a la República de Roma. Tanto fue así que tuvieron que enfrentarse al desafío alguno de los más célebres quirites del momento, desde Cayo Claudio Glabro, pasando por Marco Licinio Craso y hasta Pompeyo el Grande. Y dejando Roma, en la segunda sección del programa viajamos en el tiempo y la geografía para recalar de nuevo en los entretenidos mentideros de la corte de los Austrias.

The Fertility Of Our Soils Used To Be Much Greater Than It Is Today Ronnie Cummins• http://www.organicconsumers.org • Book - Grassroots Rising  #RonnieCummins #ConsumerActivist #PoliticalChange Ronnie Cummins is an author of the book; Grassroots Rising: A Call to Action on Climate, Farming, Food, and a Green New Deal and has spent over 50 years as a professional activist starting with anti-war activism . A practical, shovel-ready plan for anyone wondering what they can do to help address the global climate crisis. Grassroots Rising is a passionate call to action for the global body politic, providing practical solutions for how to survive―and thrive―in catastrophic times. Author Ronnie Cummins, founder and director of the Organic Consumers Association, aims to educate and inspire citizens worldwide to organize and become active participants in preventing ecological collapse.This book offers a blueprint for building and supercharging a grassroots Regeneration Movement based on: • Consumer activism• Farmer innovation• Political change• Regenerative finance Cummins asserts that the solution lies right beneath our feet and at the end of our forks through the transformation of our broken food system. Using regenerative agriculture practices that restore our agricultural and grazing lands, we can sequester massive amounts of carbon in the soil. Coupled with an aggressive transition toward renewables, he argues that we have the power to not only mitigate and slow down climate change, but actually reverse global warming by strengthening our infrastructure. Grassroots Rising shows that a properly organized and executed Regeneration Revolution can indeed offer realistic climate solutions while also meeting our everyday needs. “This is a ‘good news' instructional book for Regeneration, a plan of action for the United States and the world to transition to climate stability, peace, justice, health, prosperity, cooperation, and participatory democracy.”―Ronnie Cummins Ronnie Cummins is co-founder and International Director of the Organic Consumers Association (OCA) and its Mexico affiliate Via Organica. (OCA) is a non-profit, U.S. based network of two million consumers, dedicated to safeguarding organic standards and promoting a healthy, just, and sustainable system of agriculture and commerce. The OCA's primary strategy is to work on national and global campaigns promoting health, justice, and sustainability that integrate public education, marketplace pressure, media work, litigation, and grassroots lobbying. Cummins has been active as a writer and activist since the 1960s, with extensive experience in public education, grassroots mobilization, and marketplace pressure campaigns. Over the past two decades he has served as director of US and international campaigns dealing with sustainable agriculture issues including food safety, genetic engineering, factory farming, and global warming. From 1992-98 Cummins served as a campaign director for the Foundation on Economic Trends in Washington, D.C. In 1998, Cummins co-founded the Organic Consumers Association, the largest network of organic consumers in the USA. In 2009 Cummins founded Via Organica, a network of organic consumers and farmers based in Mexico City and San Miguel de Allende, Guanajuato. Cummins is a frequent lecturer, both in the US and abroad as well as a regular contributor to online publications such as Organic Bytes, Common Dreams, Truthout, Huffington Post, and Nation of Change.

Art is primarily a solitary activity. Although some artists collaborate or share studios, most of us spend our time alone with our work and our thoughts, and we value that solitude. But art is also a form of communication, and other artists are often very savvy about understanding the work of others and connecting in that way is valuable. And who better to understand the ups and downs, the challenges and rewards of art life than another artist? Today Rebecca and Jerry discuss the benefits of being part of an artist community. Artist communities can take many forms--from a few artist friends getting together on a casual basis to organized critique groups to online communities and membership programs. Workshops also serve as gathering points around a shared interest, and often relationships continue afterward. An artist group or community can be formally organized with a definite structure, or a looser arrangement created simply by connecting with people in your region. Many artists have a deep desire for connection with other artists and it just takes one person taking the risk of reaching out to others. All these kinds of community offer benefits to the artists involved, including honest feedback, emotional support, and shared resources and ideas. It helps to have a central focus for a group, but it need not be rigidly defined. Many artist communities have a purely social aspect, even while they have a broader agenda like critique or studio visits. And there can be unexpected benefits that would not be foreseen when setting an agenda for a group. During the pandemic a lot of artists found themselves feeling isolated, without the usual and natural ways of getting together with other artists such as gallery openings and events. Now that things have loosened up a lot of people who got involved in an art group during that time deeply appreciated the growth and support, they received from other artists, and many artists have a different awareness of the importance of artist communities than they did previously.

The beginning of a new year is a time to consider what will bring clarity and focus to your art practice in the months ahead. For many artists, that means setting goals and intentions, and to do that means gaining clarity about what to prioritize. Artists' goals tend to cover a lot of ground--some may be for the work itself, for improving and advancing skills and techniques, or for completing projects. Others may be more personal, like taking steps to overcome procrastination or negative self-talk. Still other goals fall into the realm of career or professional goals like gaining gallery representation. Which are most important for you? Setting goals and intentions and making resolutions is common practice at the start of a new year and we are often advised to do this as artists. But it doesn't make sense to do this randomly or to do it just because it seems like good advice. What you really want is to gain ground in some kind of logical progression. With all the moving parts in a studio practice, how do you prioritize what you want to work on? Some of the kinds of goals that artists can work with include working on mindset and inner issues, intentions for your studio practice overall, things about your work you want to imporve, and career or professional goals. Separating your goals into these categories and writing your thoughts about them can help you see where to focus your energies. How you set goals and pursue them is up to each person--there is no approach that works for eveyone. Some people need or want a lot of structure, others are fine with simply having some clear ideas in mind. But thinking about these areas of focus, how they are related, and where your priorites lie can help you gain clarity and focus going forward. Being aware of where your own issues lie is the first step to making progress. Thanks to everyone who has been sharing the show and donating!

A studio practice of any kind is an optimal learning environment. As an artist, every day that you work, you set challenges for yourself in your work and figure out how to meet them. But beyond learning how to produce the best work you can, there are also personal life lessons that come from a studio practice. We learn patience, perseverance, the ability to live with uncertain outcomes, and much more. Today we will look at some of what art can teach us on this personal level. When you're committed to an art practice you learn many practical things out of necessity, like the need to show up in the studio, how to conduct the business of art, and how to evaluate your work. But making the commitment itself is a big step that can also lead to a great deal of personal awareness of what is important to you and how you handle your life. Because art is so personal there are deep emotional and personal effects that may evolve from dedicating yourself to your work. These tend to be subtle and slow to evolve but over time can lead to positive changes in your outlook and behavior. You may experience a growing ability to allow solutions evolve, the ability to stick with your goals, and an increased trust in your own abilities. An art practice challenges you to problem solve and have the strength to keep trying. So, the life of an artist has rewards beyond the obvious joys of creativity and communication. The challenges of an art practice can help you grow in ways that enhance your life and your character. This happens naturally and is not something you need to push. But being aware of these lessons can lead to gratitude and appreciation the life changes brought about by your commitment to your work. Thanks to everyone who has been sharing the show and donating!

Author Ronnie Cummins, founder and director of the Organic Consumers Association, aims to educate and inspire citizens worldwide to organize and become active participants in preventing ecological collapse.This book offers a blueprint for building and supercharging a grassroots Regeneration Movement based on: • Consumer activism• Farmer innovation• Political change• Regenerative finance Cummins asserts that the solution lies right beneath our feet and at the end of our forks through the transformation of our broken food system. Using regenerative agriculture practices that restore our agricultural and grazing lands, we can sequester massive amounts of carbon in the soil. Coupled with an aggressive transition toward renewables, he argues that we have the power to not only mitigate and slow down climate change, but actually reverse global warming by strengthening our infrastructure. Grassroots Rising shows that a properly organized and executed Regeneration Revolution can indeed offer realistic climate solutions while also meeting our everyday needs. “This is a ‘good news' instructional book for Regeneration, a plan of action for the United States and the world to transition to climate stability, peace, justice, health, prosperity, cooperation, and participatory democracy.”―Ronnie Cummins Ronnie Cummins is co-founder and International Director of the Organic Consumers Association (OCA) and its Mexico affiliate Via Organica. (OCA) is a non-profit, U.S. based network of two million consumers, dedicated to safeguarding organic standards and promoting a healthy, just, and sustainable system of agriculture and commerce.

Over the past two decades he has served as director of US and international campaigns dealing with sustainable agriculture issues including food safety, genetic engineering, factory farming, and global warming.

For the first in an end-of-year extravaganza of episodes, we're back to discuss the work of legendary Chilean documentary filmmaker Patricio Guzman.  Active since the early '70s, Guzman started out as a chronicler of the Allende years, capturing the right-wing backlash and subsequent coup on camera before going into a decades-long exile in Europe. Since then, his films have dealt almost exclusively with the painful memory of the junta and its victims, the violent injustices of the Pinochet years and the condition of his homeland, turning away from the conventional third-cinema documentary form of his early work towards something increasingly poetic, metaphorical and personal. With Guzman's latest film, MY IMAGINARY COUNTRY, having its UK premiere at LFF 2022, and THE CORDILLERA OF DREAMS (the final part of a trilogy alongside NOSTALGIA FOR THE LIGHT and THE PEARL BUTTON) also going on general release this year, we (belatedly) take the opportunity to appraise his seminal filmography.

In the process of making a work of art, the artist deals with many questions and decisions. There is a constant evaluation of asking if the piece is on the right track and considering what is needed for the next move. What will best convey the artist's ideas and intentions? Many of these decisions are quick and intuitive, but sometimes a more reflective and conscious process is called for. You need a balance between intuition and more conscious analysis to produce consistently good work. Both are important—you don't want to be constantly stopping and picking apart every move, that is paralyzing and over thinking. But without applying some objective evaluation of your work every so often, your work will be all over the place. Sometimes you hit on a good result, but it is harder to do that consistently without a deeper look. A lot this is analysis is thoughtfully but quickly, with just a short amount of consideration. This process borders on intuition because it feels that you just know what to do, although that knowledge may need a moment of looking to see what to do. But there's another level that takes more time. This is an actual step by step process you can go through to analyze your work either when you are close to being done, or deciding if it's done, or at any time along the way that you feel stuck. It involves close observation of your work in several ways. The first is an objective, descriptive look at the form of the work, observations about what you see in the use of the visual elements and composition. Next is subjective interpretation based on your ideas and intentions, and finally, how do the form and content work together? It is helpful to do this in written form to help your focus. This basic exercise is taught in art school as a way of observing the alignment of form and content. After a while the practice gets ingrained and a basis for making choices about how you use the visual elements and composition to express what you want to say.

There is something compelling and mysterious about the urge to make art. Those of us that make art today are part of a tradition going back many thousands of years. What is its role in your own life? What basic needs does making art satisfy? Why do so many of us spend so much of our time putting down paint, shaping clay, carving wood or marble, or cranking prints through a press? Today we toss around some ideas about what motivates us to create and the satisfaction it brings. It's not uncommon for an artist to stop working for a while due to some disruption in their lives and it can be a distressing time. If stopping is the result of a personal upset or trauma, a vicious cycle can develop in which not working can lead to an even lower state of mind, and lead to even more difficulty getting back to it when the overall situation improves. Yet most artists don't truly give up their studio practice when circumstances are negative, and will continue to search for a way back in. Although artists have always persisted through every era of history and every situation that people experience, it is sometimes seen as a self-centered activity and not essential to society. In fact, it is an extremely personal activity and that connection to self is the source of the passion artists feel. At the same time, art transcends individual experience with its universal appeal, and is a very basic aspect of a fully developed culture. For artists, art can fulfill many needs, from the desire to explore and be challenged, to spiritual fulfillment. It is a way of processing experience and to find a language for what goes on in an artist's inner life. These aspects lead to the intense drive and passion artists tend to feel for their work.

Episode 232: The Demons of Procrastination

Procrastination may be human nature but identifying its role in your life can be a big help in moving forward. Instead of simple laziness or looking for distractions, procrastination can also be active avoidance behavior in which you channel energy into activities other than what you really want to achieve. You may stay busy, but you're not doing what is truly important. Today we look at how artists are affected by procrastination and ways to confront it in your own studio practice. As noted in a recent article in the New York Times, "procrastination isn't a character flaw or a mysterious curse on your ability to manage time, but a way of coping with challenging emotions and negative moods induced by certain tasks — boredom, anxiety, insecurity, frustration, resentment, self-doubt and beyond." Each of these may show up as various aspects of studio practice. Some procrastination has to do with your artwork itself, when you are bored or frustrated, while others are practical chores and obligations. Artists experience procrastination around such topics as finishing projects, organizing financial records, creating and updating websites, deadlines of all kinds, making decisions about materials, and contacting and communicating with galleries. In fact, there are so many aspects to an art practice it's no wonder that some get put aside, so something to consider in all of this are your true priorities. You may discover that some things that you procrastinate about are not as important or necessary as you assumed. Prioritizing helps keep you from feeling overwhelmed, another procrastination trigger. But although it's common for artists to allow procrastination to loom large, it is truly detrimental and can sap your growth and excitement for your work. Like so many other challenges of an art practice, it helps to just become more aware of where your own procrastination demons are lurking and try to confront them. Even small steps are rewarding.
