Millions of people know The Artist's Way. First published in 1992, the book began as notes for a class that its author, Julia Cameron, taught on creative self-discovery or, as she sometimes prefers to call it, “creative recovery.” It found a huge audience, and today you can find Artist's Way groups all over the world. Cameron's original The Artist's Way offered a 12-week path towards overcoming artistic blocks. The book was subtitled “A Spiritual Path to Higher Creativity,” and it spoke of plugging into a current of what she called “spiritual electricity.” But her techniques were practical and easy to grasp. Rituals from The Artist's Way such as starting your day by writing out three pages of unedited text, known as "doing your Morning Pages," have become part of the creative process of many, many artists, musicians, and writers. More than three decades after its publication, The Artist's Way continues to find new followers, and even got a new bump of popularity during the 2020s. And Julia Cameron herself has returned this year with The Daily Artist's Way, offering a new way in for fans. Cameron agreed to speak to national critic Ben Davis to revisit the origins of her famous method and how she's tweaking it now in this new book.

In this episode of the Remote Work Life Podcast, I'm joined by Ben Davis, Co-Founder of Saxbury, a long-time specialist in serviced apartments, aparthotels, and flexible accommodation. Ben has spent more than two decades working across corporate housing, relocation, and property advisory, and he's one of the clearest voices I've met on how the accommodation landscape is shifting for businesses.I ask Ben why finding the right place to live and work is still far harder than it should be, even for experienced travellers. Ben breaks down the real differences between serviced apartments, aparthotels, co-living, and short-term rentals, and explains why the “just book an Airbnb” approach often falls short when someone needs reliability, safety, decent Wi-Fi, and a proper work setup.We also talk about what companies actually look for when booking long-stay accommodation, how professionals' needs have changed post-COVID, and why landlords and agents are slowly adapting to a workforce that moves differently. Ben also touches on the growing demand for work-ready spaces and how developers are rethinking underused buildings to meet it.If you've ever struggled to book accommodation that fits the way you or your team work, this conversation will make the whole landscape much clearer.Refer a Remote Work Expert As a Guest On The ShowLooking for Remote Work?Click here remoteworklife.io to access a private beta list of remote jobs in sales, marketing, and strategy — plus get podcasts, real-world tips and business insights from founders, CEOs, and remote leaders. subscribe to my free newsletter Connect on LinkedIn

Nigerian modern art is having a moment. In London, the Tate has opened a critically acclaimed exhibition, called “Nigerian Modernism,” featuring more than 50 artists who experimented with vibrant new styles in the mid 20th century in the giant and influential West African nation. More generally, the artists of this era have become more recognized outside of their home country in recent decades, from early figures who laid the groundwork like Aina Onabolu to a towering figure of the 1950s like Ben Enwonwu to younger innovators of the 1950s and 1960s such as Uche Okeke and Demas Nwoko, with many more important names to know and bodies of work to discover. This was an earth-shaking time in Nigerian history, when a near-century of British colonial domination was shed and the many problems of a fragile new independent nation had to be faced. These artists were part of figuring out how to express that new sense of identity in images. But their art was not always so celebrated, sometimes dismissed as derivative of European art. The scholar and curator Chika Okeke-Agulu has been important to the recent re-estimation of Nigeria's art history. He teaches at Princeton, and is the author of, among many other things, of Postcolonial Modernism: Art and Decolonization in Twentieth-Century Nigeria, a book that personally excited me very much when I first found it. With the Tate show drawing a fresh wave of interest, art critic Ben Davis thought Okeke-Agulu would be an excellent guide to what this art was, what it meant, and why it still demands attention today.

Ben Davis joins the 94 WIP Morning Show to discuss the state of the Phillies as they get started with free agency later today. He says that while he does not think it's the right call, the team will most likely run it back with the same core they have had for the past few seasons. He stresses that the team's biggest problem is that the offense is not good enough, and fails under the brightest lights.

On the 94 WIP Morning Show, Ben Davis explains how the Phillies may go about potentially replacing Kyle Schwarber, should he leave in free agency this winter. Also, hear what Jason Kelce has to say about Jordan Mailata's evolution in the NFL.

It's been a really dizzyingly busy October, and as is customary, we are ending the month by talking about three of the biggest topics. We have a palette of stories that gives a sense of how head-spinning it was. First, we are going to talk about one of the biggest stories in the world, the $102 million jewel heist at France's Louvre museum, which has transfixed the public. Second, it's been a busy few weeks in the European art world on top the Louvre heist, with both Art Basel Paris and Frieze London. Our reporters were there so we are going to check in on what the news from the art biz is. And third, we'll talk about the new Sora 2 app, an all-A.I. TikTok clone that isn't public yet but is at the top of the app charts. I got a chance to try it out and looked at it. An artist I know called it “the death of video art.” Is it that bad or that good? What does it mean for art? We'll talk about that too. Ben Davis is joined as is custom by Artnet's senior editor and Art Angle co-host Kate Brown, in Berlin, alongside European news reporter Jo Lawson-Tancred.

On today's 94 WIP Morning Show, the crew discussed the Eagles recent trade for CB Michael Carter II, and how it will impact the Eagles secondary.

One of the things Ben Davis likes about contemporary art is that he is always learning new things, because art spaces are always bringing new ways of making and thinking into the mix. Recently, unexpectedly, this has included magic. Specifically, Jeanette Andrews. Andrews began her career as a professional magician, but now works mainly in museums, creating a body of work that's something new, exploring magic as an expressive medium. Her works usually bring together the science of perception, the intrigue of coded messages, and the history of illusion as a craft. Andrews has performed parlor tricks dreamed up by an algorithm to investigate human versus machine creativity; re-performed the earliest documented magic trick from 1584; and made art inspired by the use of sleight of hand in actual CIA espionage in the 1950s. And her explorations of this unusual creative space are actually getting their first dedicated museum exhibition soon, at the Elmhurst Art Museum in Illinois—that's a little bit of news we're breaking on the Art Angle, as a matter of fact. Earlier this month, Ben went to see one of Jeanette Andrews's most recent commissions in Boston, "The Attestation," at the MIT Center for Art, Science, and Technology. He describes it as a hybrid of stage magic and social experiment. The questions of why, if, and how magic fits in in the museum seem fascinating to me, so he was happy that Andrews agreed to talk about how she pulled off her biggest trick of all: making magic art.

Fans of the Art Angle know our monthly Art Angle Round-Up, where Kate Brown and Ben Davis are usually joined by a writer to talk about three topics in art. For the early September week of art fairs in New York, we decided to mix it up with an experiment: a live edition of the Art Angle Round-Up, at Independent 20th Century. Our guest was the curator Matthew Higgs. He's the director of storied New York alternative art space White Columns; founding curatorial advisor to Independent; and—I'm really not just saying this—someone who's been on my shortlist of people to have on the show for a long time. Higgs is one of the most thoughtful observers of the art scene that you could to have a chat with. The house was packed for the live Saturday recording. Of course, we know that people listen to the show—but to see people actually turn out and to hear from listeners who have thoughts about it and want to talk about art and toss around ideas was very exciting. So, a big thank you to everyone who joined us in the audience. And of course thanks Independent 20th Century, and to Matthew for a lively and serious conversation.
