“We look at creative work as though the very creative process itself is something good. These are tools of expression, and like any tool, you can use them to damage something or to make something. They can be turned to very malign purposes, for instance, in the operas of Wagner. So I wanted to do this set of books, I want to show what is kind of the basic DNA that people use for good or for ill. What are the tools they use, if you like, of expression that they use in the creative process?”Richard Sennett grew up in the Cabrini Green housing project in Chicago, attended the Juilliard School in New York, and then studied social relations at Harvard. Over the last five decades, he has written about social life in cities, changes in labour, and social theory. His books include The Performer: Art, Life, Politics, The Hidden Injuries of Class, The Fall of Public Man, The Corrosion of Character, The Culture of the New Capitalism, The Craftsman, and Building and Dwelling.

We use math every day, even if we don't know it. Many of us could probably benefit from increasing our math literacy. On today's show, we hear how the U of A Department of Mathematical Sciences and the Fayetteville Public Library are partners for screening the documentary "Counted Out". Plus, a retrospective of Eugene Sargent's art opens this weekend. Also, Michael Tilley takes us through this week's headlines.

With the passing of David Lynch we mourn the loss of a true artist and spiritual guide. Anyone familiar with Lynch, the man and his work, knew him to be a study in the paradoxical.  His All-American "boy next door" character and rural common sense, always sat oddly beside the nightmare cinematic worlds he created.  Mel Brooks, who hired him to direct The Elephant Man, called him "Jimmy Stewart from Mars".  For all the debate around auteurism, Lynch was the quintessential auteur. His films, from Eraserhead, through to the brilliant third season of Twin Peaks, are ireplicable, as influential as he has been, there is no equivalent visionary in today's cinematic landscape. Blending elements of surrealism, film noir, german expressionism, horror and soap opera, Lynch's oeuvre stands as a coherent, if highly symbolic, statement on darkness and light, good and evil, memory and fantasy.  In this sense, Lynch was more than just a great film director, his life and work are a model of the "art life", wherein one dedicates themselves fully to the serious pursuit of art as a way to excavate the hidden, often horrific,  realities behind the facades of the seemingly banal everyday.  Join Azed and Tom as they pay tribute to one of the greatest artists of our lifetime. 

Neither a documentary on the films of David Lynch nor a film about the man we knew as David Lynch.  But an account of a young man who through circumstance and single-minded drive, would find himself in and construct just the sort of environment that could form a David Lynch.  Directors Olivia Neergaard-Holm, Jon Nguyen, and Rick Barnes put the camera on a man making art and a microphone on a man looking back at his early life.  And they leave it up to us to make connections between the two.

If you'd like to watch ahead for next week's film, we will be discussing and reviewing Robert Day's Corridors of Blood (1959).

I just heard David Lynch passed away. Here are some thoughts of his that have helped me along my journey.

In this insightful episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Avik Chakraborty sits down with transformational coach and author Susan Hensley to explore the profound impact of art journaling on self-discovery and emotional well-being. Susan shares how this playful yet powerful practice became her anchor during life's transitions, including caregiving, an empty nest, and the challenges of the pandemic. Together, they uncover how art journaling can silence the inner critic, regulate emotions, and unlock the authentic self—even for those who don't consider themselves artists. Whether you're navigating big changes or simply looking for a creative outlet, this episode offers a vibrant roadmap to reconnect with joy and creativity.   About the Guest: Susan Hensley is a transformational coach and author who has turned art journaling into a therapeutic tool for self-discovery. With decades of experience coaching executives and teams, Susan brings her expertise to help others navigate life's transitions with grace and creativity. Her personal journey with art journaling began as a joyful experiment and evolved into a deeply impactful practice that integrates play, emotional regulation, and authentic self-expression. Reach: https://susan-hensley.com/    Key Takeaways: Art Journaling Defined: Art journaling isn't about creating a masterpiece—it's about play, release, and connecting with yourself. It's especially valuable for those who don't consider themselves artistic. The Power of Play: Using tools like crayons or finger paints helps adults tap into a childlike state of curiosity and creativity, silencing the inner critic. Navigating Transitions with Art: Life transitions, such as caregiving or career changes, are inevitable. Art journaling provides a safe space to process emotions, regulate anxiety, and rediscover joy. The Science Behind Creativity: Shifting from the left (analytical) side of the brain to the right (creative) side fosters emotional balance, which is backed by research into brain function. Accessible and Versatile Practice: Art journaling doesn't require fancy tools—just 10 minutes a day with simple supplies like crayons, paints, or magazines can make a difference. Creative expression can also take many forms, such as dance, singing, or cooking. This episode invites listeners to grab a crayon, embrace their inner child, and embark on a journey of creative self-discovery!

"In that moment, you just moved the entire human species one millimeter closer to world peace and all the things we all say that the world should be like." "What other art form do two people get to collaborate at that level?" "One of the beautiful things about tattooing to me also is like seeing the evolution of what you're doing like any other art form but add into it the trust of the human allowing you to experiment on their body." "I feel like things just in general in society are kind of like splitting and becoming more polar opposite." "We're a fully mature industry. And like any mature industry, visibility and marketability are now essential." "That not giving a fuck thing, good luck. Good luck with that."

Here's what you'll discover in this episode:  In this episode of Biographers in Conversation Ashleigh Wilson chats with Gabriella about his book: A Year with Wendy Whiteley: Conversations About Art, Life and Gardening. Here's what you'll discover in this episode:  Ashleigh Wilson shares his inspiration for writing A Year with Wendy Whiteley: Conversations About Art, Life and Gardening and why he refers to the book as a conversational portrait rather than as a biography.  Ashleigh explains why he opened the book with a detailed description of Wendy Whiteley's kitchen table.  He discloses why he framed each chapter around a particular topic and why he kept returning to the kitchen table as the central anchor.  Ashleigh reveals how knowing Wendy Whiteley influenced how he portrayed her and the complexities of writing about a living subject.  He also outlines the novelistic devices he employed to evoke an authentic portrayal of Australia's art world in the 1960s and 70s, and the extent to which he interpreted Wendy's character and behaviour versus providing facts and clues and leaving it to readers to form their own interpretations. https://biographersinconversation.com Facebook: Share Your Life Story Linkedin: Gabriella Kelly Davies Instagram: Biographersinconversation

Then somehow we get gripped with the idea that bigger is better. Rather than turn our attention to making more personal, more meaningful, or insightful photographs it becomes so much easier to pursue the greater technical challenges of large prints, thereby postponing the launch of our real art life.

https://Art2Life.com - Caroline Millar was creatively blocked for a long time. She loved art as a child but had a terrible experience with an art teacher when she was 16. Because of it, she stopped painting for 25 years. She went through a difficult time where everything creative disappeared from her life.  Five years ago, Caroline joined our Creative Visionary Program. She embarked on a journey of self-discovery and artistic exploration. Caroline experienced a profound shift in her perspective and her life and work were transformed.  Caroline now helps other artists navigate their creative journeys, drawing on her own experiences to provide empathy, support, and guidance. Her approach is rooted in understanding and compassion, empowering artists to overcome self-doubt and embrace their unique artistic voices. In this conversation, we cover her extraordinary journey back to her art. Let her story inspire you to dig deeper and reconnect with your creative self.
