Beyond the Visual, a symposium reflecting on what blindness brings to the experience of art within cultural organisations and beyond was held at Wellcome Collection on Friday and Saturday 21 and 22 October 2022. Visually impaired and sighted Speakers at the symposium included artists, creative practitioners, disability activists, historians, researchers and scientists together to not only to talk about inclusion and access to the arts for blind and partially sighted people but also to talk about what blind and partially sighted people can bring to cultural experiences for all. RNIB Connect Radio's Toby Davey was there for both days of the symposium catching up with some of the key people behind Beyond the Visual and some of the key speakers too. In the forth of Toby's interviews from the symposium he chats with Collin van Uchelen, a visually impaired Conceptual Artist and Community Psychology consultant based in Vancouver about his presentation, Translating Light Into Non-Visual Forms. Collin gave Toby a bit of background about making fireworks and pyrotechnics accessible to blind and partially sighted people through description and touch following on from a friend who described a firework display to him. Some work with Vocal Eye an audio description organisation based in Canada on ways to describe fireworks, the use of touch to draw out a tactile impression of the shapes that the fireworks make in the sky and the relationship between fireworks and the shapes of flowers. Collin also told Toby about how he was working on choreographing his own pyrotechnic display to the sound of a Yes track.

Ep. 62: She went from poverty in communist-era Poland to becoming the artist of choice of Silicon Valley billionaires for her renaissance-inspired conceptual art of machines and robots/ Agnieszka Pilat, Conceptual Artist. Born in the shadow of communism, in the grip of poverty, in the cradle of post-industrial Central Poland, Agnieska Pilat acted on her burning desire to leave her homeland and headed to America in 2004. She landed in the Bay Area where a transformative book recommendation from her hairdresser, and her industrial roots in Poland, led to an epiphany which led her to start painting machines. First the traditional kind. Gears and widgets and meters and fire bells. Then — robots. One in particular, her big bright yellow 70 pound cybernetic “pet” if you could call it that / model/assistant/apprentice/Spot, on loan to her from the famed and controversial robot maker Boston Dynamics. Over the past decade, Agnieskza Pilat's classically-trained, renaissance-inspired, contemporary art around man and machine, technology and automation has gained a big following among Silicon Valley's elite billionaires. Her works of art have been acquired by collectors including Sotheby's and tech titans such as Craig McCaw, Richard Branson, Yuri Milner, and Larry Silverstein among others. Several of her paintings are featured in the latest Matrix movie, The Matrix Resurrections. Pilat has been described as an “artist who brings technology to life,” ‘the darling of Silicon Valley,” and a “technology storyteller.” Her latest exhibition is titled Renaissance 2.0, and is an homage to Silicon Valley's renaissance. It was such a pleasure to catch up with Agnieszka Pilat about her life and her renaissance-inspired contemporary art of man and machine.

The Open Call Podcast, hosted by Anne Stagg and Laura Tanner, features conversations with contemporary artists about their work.This week, The Open Call Podcast has the pleasure of sharing with you part of our conversation with Buzz Spector. When we spoke, Buzz had recently moved from St Louis to his new home in the Hudson Valley, His studio was in the final phase of construction. Buzz is an internationally recognized conceptual artist who is perhaps best known for his work with books, but his vast body of work also includes drawings, photographs, collages, and more. He says of his practice, all of the techniques he uses “are techniques of intimacy in action, but our position to recognize them is retrospective - it comes after the fact. So the play of memory he talks about is one) of projecting your own experience and secondarily, of assessing the limited terms that our language gives us to describe what we witness.”Buzz often uses language as a stand in for something that is missing. He considers all of his work through the lens of drawing and he talks about how “the distance between reader and page, between artist's eye and artist's pencil on paper, is an intimate space of noticing, empathizing, and of accepting that makes the experience shift from a reading of structural terms to an epiphany of identification.”Buzz is also widely recognized for his critical writings about art. He describes his role as not simply providing an opinion, but instead as finding a way of faithfully describing what he has seen that will preserve something of that effect in the imagination of the reader. When he writes he chooses from a huge field of properties to describe one, then another, then another and that description doesn't lead to a total picture of the artwork, but instead to a premise of the success or failure of the artwork. The structure of his writing is intended to clarify where he is coming from as the person on the other side of that written text.We enjoyed a rich conversation that meandered through a variety of topics including his practice, critical writing and pedagogy. We hope you enjoy our conversation and please check out our Instagram -- @the_open_call_podcast -- where we share images of Buzz's artwork. We produce three seasons a year during which we release new episodes every 2 weeks. Special thanks to Susan Cooper for voicing our Outro, Scott Stagg for composing our music, Judah Bachmann for creating a new version of our podcast music and for sound engineering, and to our wonderful research assistants: Ally Price, Nikki Cohen, and Erin Miller who provide production support, web, and social media design.

What is the purpose of an Aura photo? According to Christina Lonsdale, Conceptual Artist, “It depends on the person taking the photo and their intentions behind it. We often talk about energy, identity, color, life as human beings, the energy that we put into the world, and how this changes because we all change energetically. The photo offers something tangible. It offers this ability to see something you don't normally see. The biggest thing for me is when someone walks away with something new and surprising.” In this special episode, we're talking to Christina Lonsdale. Christina is a conceptual artist that found her prominence through @radianthuman_, a photography project that uses the Aura Cam 6000. Dubbed “the Annie Leibovitz of aura photography” by the New York Times and a “Dutch painter on acid” by Vogue, she has been an artist in residence at the Whitney Museum of American Art, shot aura photographs on-site at the Museum of Contemporary Art Tucson, and worked with numerous brands including Nike, Google, Nordstrom, Refinery29, and Urban Outfitters. Her work has been featured in the New York Times, Vanity Fair, W, ID, Vogue, Teen Vogue, Harper's Bazaar, Nylon, and Time Out. We sat with Christa to talk about how she found her calling, what an Aura photograph means, how the camera works, what she loves about her work, and her newly released book, Radiant Human: Discover the Connection Between Color, Identity, and Energy. To learn more about Christina and her work click here: https://www.radianthuman.com/ If you like what you hear, please subscribe, rate, and review this podcast.
On this week’s episode we are very excited to chat with New York-based conceptual artist, Christina Lonsdale. Christina is widely known for her work and has captured the auras of celebrities such as Chloe Sevigny, Gwenyth Paltrow, Busy Philips, and Zosia Mamet! She also just came out with her first book “Radiant Human” and is here to tell us all about it! We start off discussing her unusual childhood growing up in a commune and what eventually led her to pursue her art. If you don’t know much about aura photography and how it works or what it looks like but want to know more, definitely tune into this episode! Christina explains all about capturing energy, how the camera works and what different colors and textures can mean. Because she considers herself an artist and not a healer, she uses her work as an opportunity to explain energy in new ways so that people can feel seen. We’ll also talk about how COVID-19 and this year heightened our awareness over things we can’t see, and how this paradigm shift can benefit us when it comes to changing our energy and how we influence our environment.

Ravista is a bilingual storyteller & visual communicator from New Delhi. She did her BFA in Graphic Design and Comparative Literature and Creative Writing from the Rhode Island School of Design. As a designer her practice lies in the interdisciplinary fields of graphic design, photography, filmmaking, writing & research. According to her design is one of the lenses that allows for clarifications in a world that is built around misconceptions.. so relevant now more than ever! She tells complex multilingual stories of individuals in the hope that those smaller stories will tell larger tales of nations whose voices have not been heard in the past due to the hegemonies of the West. Currently she is focused on looking at design through the lens of decolonization, which in its essence means, giving voice & visibility to minorities from around the world. She has started a design collective called Active & Concerned Citizen last year, whose focus is to help clear misconceptions of Indians living in India to the Wider World. It is a collaborative effort with other Indian artists & designers. Her specialty has been in publication design, but she has recently diversified into film & sound. Ravista has just completed her Masters in visual communication from the Royal College of Art London.

An American son of German Jewish father and Irish mother, Kevin Abosch (born 1969) is an Irish conceptual artist known for his works in photography, sculpture, installation, AI, blockchain and film. Kevin's father escaped to safety in UK on the last train of the British-sponsored Kinder Transport program while the paternal grandparents were subsequently sent to Auschwitz where they were murdered along with 1 million Nazi victims, mainly Jewish. Because of his father's intimate connection to the Holocaust Kevin has developed a strong sense of obligation to other oppressed communities such as Uyghurs and Rohingyas. His work addresses the questions about identity and value, and he considers himself an artist-activist. Kevin talks to Dr. Maung Zarni on the FRC Genocide Podcast Series about: - His attempt to regain control over the process of commoditized art-artist; - On human identity & human values; - His collaboration with Ai Wei Wei ; - Recurring theme of genocides against various victims groups with different identities - #Jews #Rohingyas #Uyghurs; - His sense of obligation to other oppressed communities such as Uyghurs and Rohingyas; and - The unravelling of Truth in the age of Fake News
Ani Acopian makes. She makes ideas that use all their might to capture the attention of the Internet. From Amazon Dating (a website where you can shop for a date), Scrubhub (Pornhub but for cleaning your hands), an 18-hole mini golf course that can fit in a tiny backyard, and some sweet video direction for companies like AWAL. In my plea to strategists to make - and not just think, I wanted to talk with Ani about what gets her mind going. We recorded this as a livestream on 13 May, 2020. There was a little lag which is why, every now and then, we speak over each other. But it’s still worth a listen.

Over the past thirteen years, Rob Tarbell has developed and drawn from two unique processes – “Smokes”, smoke based work and the “Struggles”, porcelain sculptural ceramics.In 2006, a failed portrait attempt using cigarettes and liquor collided with a lingering what – if : What if I burned my credits cards and used the smoke to make marks?The first attempt at burning credit cards yielded a deep black with seductive wispy grays no brush could deliver. Tarbell’s penchant for embracing unorthodox methods and materials was then fully focused on the potential of capturing and creating with smoke. He continues to pioneer and push his smoke technique through rigorous trial and error and with the adaptation of tools and the creation of equipment to suit each new discovery and advance of the smoke process. To create the smoke, credit cards, gift cards, and, now, 35mm slides of his artwork are burned - removing their growing presence in daily life - an ironic nod to a self-help technique of burning sentimental things to remove their emotional burden or historical connection. The smoke process involves directly permitting or preventing its accumulation, or by indirectly encouraging or discouraging the flow of smoke on the surface. The Struggles are sculptural ceramic figures created by infusing fabrics and faux fur with porcelain slip, forming, then firing. Each figure embodies the acts of loss, transformation, and preservation in subject, concept, and material. Animals appear whole, or in part, and impersonate through guises or by employing disguises. Rabbits embody a vast array of symbols and possess the ability to pass between the real and imaginary while still remaining true to their chosen character.In 2017, the Tampa Museum of Art featured his smoke and porcelain work in Skyway Selections: Curator’s Choice. His work has been shown in more than twenty solo exhibitions and seventy-five group exhibitions throughout the United States, Korea, China, and England. Rob’s work is currently represented by Claire Oliver Gallery in New York.Tarbell’s work has been featured in more than 50 articles in publications worldwide, including New American Paintings, the Huffington Post UK, Daily Mail UK, and the Kultura Zabaikalya in Transbaikalia, Siberia. BioBorn in Findlay, Ohio, Rob Tarbell earned a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree in Painting and Graphic Design from Auburn University. He attended graduate school at the University of Tennessee where he earned a Master of Fine Arts degree and Master of Science degree in Art Education. For nearly two decades, he has balanced his studio practice with teaching at institutions such as Virginia Commonwealth University and James Madison University. Moving to Sarasota, Florida, in 2013, he continued to hone his techniques in his home studio, while he worked at the John and Mable Ringling Museum of Art and taught at the New College of Florida and the Ringling College of Art and Design. Tarbell and his family work and reside in Richmond, Virginia.
Have you ever wondered what it takes to produce the complex imagery in films like Star Wars or Transformers? The man behind the magic, Colie Wertz, is here to explain. Wertz is a conceptual artist and modeler who works on film, television and video games. He sat down with AI Podcast host Noah Kravitz to explain his specialty in hard modeling, in which he produces digital models of objects with hard surfaces like vehicles, robots and computers. To make these images, Wertz has taken to using AI art tools such as GauGAN, a real-time painting web app that allows users to create realistic landscapes using generative adversarial networks.
I had the opportunity to have a conversation with conceptual artist, Alena Foustková in her home studio outside of Prague, Czech Republic. We talked about: Fleeing Czechoslovakia, Commercial arts, Saatchi and Saatchi, Local markets, Young artists, Globalisation, Nationalism, Localism, artist residencies, Connecting with curators, The importance of curators, Art critics, Symbiotic relationship in the art world, Exploitation of artists, collecting art, and connecting with viewers. http://alenafoustkova.com About Alena Foustková graduated from the Academy of Fine Arts in Prague, Czech Republic, with an M.F.A. in 1982, majoring in printmaking. In 1984 she and her husband decided to leave then Czechoslovakia. Alena took advantage of a Canadian government program offer to study a certified commercial arts course at the George Brown College in Toronto for one year. She got a job with a small agency and in the next few years she learned more and more about the advertising business. She and her husband became Canadian citizens in 1988. During the 11 years spent in Canada Alena exhibited continuously in solo and group shows. Her Canadian and advertising experience became valuable after 1989 in the Czech Republic and Alena and her family decided to move back to Prague again in 1995. Alena and her family live in Prague ever since. Since 2009, Alena has devoted her time mainly to the arts. She also teaches at international universities in Prague, namely the Anglo-American University and UNYP (University of New York in Prague). “Alena focuses in her (artistic) work for many years on social issues and the effects of mass media. She works with the sign systems and symbols which function as codes of a content. She captures fragments of reality in the information chaos.” (Vladimíra Brucháčková Závodná, Gallery Závodný, September 2014). Foustkova uses frequently participatory means of communication of her ideas, involving viewers into and interaction with her work and often manipulating or changing the art piece like in her project Dictionary (2015 – 16) made of thousands of words to be picked through a selection process. Alena exhibits in prestigious national and international galleries and participates in projects which overlap boundaries of narrow categories. She works primarily as a multimedia artist. Her work is on display in a public space in Regensburg, Germany, in a permanent collection of the Neue Sammlung in Munich, Germany, as well as in local Czech galleries and institutions such as a well-recognized Gallery GASK representing work from contemporary artists of the Central-Bohemian region which displays her prominent work called Czechia to Czechs.

In this very special episode, Steven Leavitt is joined by his first boss, Wendy Vanguard. This becomes a touchstone for a very intriguing conversation that goes into mentorship, design, physics, energy, illustration, the emotional effect of color, the world of art in Los Angeles in the 70's (the LA Women's Building, AIDS, Roe v. Wade), parenting, and the dawn of computer-generated animation. Wendy is a Los Angeles-based artist whose professional career has spanned work as an illustrator, an art director, broadcast designer and award winning corporate image designer. Although she was awarded a Masters Grant from Art Center to pursue her painting, the hard-hitting reality of life in LA without a job lead her to abandon the grant and find employment. Wendy quickly found she had constant work: from illustrating storyboards for advertising commercials and small films to exhibit design projects, and then began designing titles for television shows such as The Rockford Files, The Six Million Dollar Man, and Planet of the Apes. She was a part of the creative design and production team for the Charles and Ray Eames Office and the creation of the film Powers of Ten. Later, she worked as an Art Director for Universal Television supervising special effects projects (BattleStar Galactica) gave her a taste of working an industry job and this led to becoming a design director for renowned ground-breaking broadcast designer Harry Marks. Wanting to work independently again, Wendy formed California Film, a broadcast design firm, choosing her own team of artists and designers to collaborate with and designing one of the earliest open plan office spaces. As it's founder and Creative Director she led them in creating award winning image campaigns and corporate design packages for CBS Entertainment, CBS News, HBO, The Walt Disney Company, the Disney-owned Flagship station California 9 (KCAL), ABC Prime Time Live, National Geographic, TBN, The Movie Channel, and more. Wendy and colleagues created (fake) computer imagery for LucasFilm's, “Return of the Jedi.” At the same time she met and married photographer Mitch Dobrowner, who soon became part of her company, leading it in new technologies and production methods. After experiencing a devastating social experience, Wendy struggled through what she coined “the dark decade,” and discusses how she managed to work through this time in her life and find new joy by shifting her focus to her family, personal creative projects, and giving back to her community through mentorship. Throughout a lifetime of unexpected turns, struggles, and successes, Wendy rediscovered an inner resilience as a woman and artist that carries her along her path.

Foustkova uses frequently participatory means of communication of her ideas, involving viewers into and interaction with her work and often manipulating or changing the art piece like in her project Dictionary (2015 – 16) made of thousands of words to be picked through a selection process. Alena exhibits in prestigious national and international galleries and participates in projects which overlap boundaries of narrow categories. She works primarily as a multimedia artist. Her work is on display in a public space in Regensburg, Germany, in a permanent collection of the Neue Sammlung in Munich, Germany, as well as in local Czech galleries and institutions such as a well-recognized Gallery GASK representing work from contemporary artists of the Central-Bohemian region which displays her prominent work called Czechia to Czechs.

In his Prague, Czech Republic studio, Antonín Jirát and I discuss Photography, art objects, Grant writing, Nutmeg, Work / life balance, Print portfolio / catalogs, defining and Finding success, Digital hacking, Lost SD cards, Appropriation, Richard Prince, Sophie Calle, Miroslav Tichý, and Henry Darger. https://antoninjirat.com About Antonín Jirát (1984) likes to create meaning networks between photographs and objects as mutual counterparts and analogies. The starting point is the technical aspects of photography with their specifics and boundaries. In the resulting installations, however, photographs and objects are only parts of a machine that works somewhat unpredictably, suggesting, but also tempting.

Conceptual artist Jan Pfeiffer from Prague, Czech Republic is my guest today. We discussed dyslexia, Waldorf schools, terminal degrees, the color ‘Black', family obligations, deadlines, aesthetics, social games, sushi, and quality vs quantity. http://janpfeiffer.info About Jan Pfeiffer moves confidently across different media; he enjoys video, photography, animation and drawing. At Pfeiffer, analytical puzzlement over historical, political or socio-cultural phenomena meets sincere fascination with mythological and religious symbolism. However, the author does not choose the material for processing according to its relevance in the historiographic discourse. What he is primarily interested in is sometimes the almost imperceptible mechanisms and connotations that create or surround historical or social moments. Or, conversely, it explores the mechanisms and connotations as a result of the initiating, triggering moment at which historical or social movement occurs. The language in which Pfeiffer interprets the eclectic stories of his own reasoning is abstract and often peculiarly symbolic. However, it is always based on the human scale.

In this episode of Architecture, Design & Photography we sit down with our good friend and fellow creative Probably Joel. We first met Joel when we hired him as a documentary photographer to shoot behind-the-scenes of a documentary film we were working on. It was a quick introduction. We immediately flew to the other side of the country, jumped in a 1987 Toyota van and spent three weeks filming and driving across the country. Through all of that, we got to know Joel and his approach to photography. We sat down with him for a discussion on what's he been up to since that fateful road trip.

This is an episode you MUST listen too! @TomerPeretzArt TomerPeretz.com About Tomer Peretz: "Tomer Peretz is a Los Angeles-based conceptual artist and painter.

This is not an easy task, for The Evil Horned King will stop at nothing to get the power of the cauldron.Taran along with the young princess Eilonwy, the bard Fflewddur Fflam, and a wild creature named Gurgi seek to destroy the cauldron, to prevent the Horned King from ruling the world.● Trivia:● The movie is loosely based upon the first two books in Lloyd Alexander's Prydain Chronicles ("The Book of Three" and "The Black Cauldron"). ● The first Disney animated movie to not contain any songs, neither performed by characters nor in the background.● This movie is notable for being the first full-length Disney animated movie to incorporate computer graphics imagery (CGI) in its animation. The CGI was utilized for a lot of the special effects, which included the bubbles, a boat, a floating orb of light, the Cauldron, the realistic flames seen near the end of the movie, and the boat that Taran and his friends used to escape the castle. The dimensions and volume of the animated objects were fed into a computer and then their shapes were manipulated through computer programming before they were transferred as physical outlines the animators could work on. Despite this movie being released a year before The Great Mouse Detective (1986), both were in production simultaneously, and the computer graphics for the latter were done first. When Producer Joe Hale heard about what was being done, the possibilities made him excited, and he made the crew from The Great Mouse Detective (1986) create some computer animation for his own movie. For others effects, Animator Don Paul used live-action footage of dry ice mists to create the steam and smoke coming out of the Cauldron.● Tim Burton, worked as a Conceptual Artist on this movie● The first Disney animated theatrical movie to receive a PG rating, and had been the only one to have that rating up until The Nightmare Before Christmas (1993) and Dinosaur(2000). ● There is an urban legend that, despite the movie's failure in the U.S., it was popular in Japan, so much so, that the creator of the Legend of Zelda series, Shigeru Miyamoto, based a lot of the game's elements on this movie. ● When the Horned King activates the power of the Black Cauldron, the sound of a space shuttle launch was used.● Segment: Misc “Whosits and Whatsits Galore” ● Comicpaloozao First started attending in 2014o We are Cosplayers!o First cosplay contest in 2015 with a Disney Princess Wrap Battle Skit as Anna, Elsa and Ariel.● This year Kerry Entered a solo Skit as Human Tamatoao Story of Audio issues and what happened to Kerryo Going at the end and winning best skito Tamatoa Skit o Oogie Boogie Skit● Lounge Princess Photo Shoot – Taken by: Jonathan Vilches @j.a.vilches “Lounge Princess” Meetup Photoshoot Photoso How the idea happenedo Cosplayers Involved: ▪ Cinderella: Princess Deanna Cosplay▪ Aurora: SchmittydeCali Cosplay▪ Ariel: Lady Loodlz Cosplay▪ Belle: Backsplit Cosplay▪ Jasmine: Keriko Cosplay▪ Mulan: SherrBear▪ Rapunzel: Fairy La Fey▪ Merida: Pastel Colored Cosplay▪ Anna: Noontime Shadows Cosplay▪ Elsa: Rumple and Cat Cosplay▪ Moana: Charming Darling▪ Vanellope: Clown Girl Cosplay● Segment: News/Announcements “The Newsies Banner”○ Disney has complete control over Hulu now.○ Live Action Aladdin comes out this Weekend!● Segment: weekly top 4 (secret from each other)”Let’s get down to business”○ Top 4 Disney Dark Moments: 1 - Pinocchio - pleasure island “jack asses” 2 - The Hunchback of Notre Dame - Hellfire/Frollo at the Beginning 3 - Snow White - All the Dark things 4 - Fantasia - Night on Bald Mountain “Chernabog”Next Week: New Live Action Aladdin Top 4: Disney/Pixar Shorts Contact info: Social Media: Facebook: Faith Trust and Pixie Dust - Podcast Email: 1stgeek411@gmail.com Twitter: @FTPD_PodcastPersonal Twitters: @Sparkle_Fists @SpilledXWater @deanna790Check us out on iTunes, Stitcher, Google Podcasts, and Spotify!!!

Unexpected and profound insights from smart people you’d like to meet. Today my guest is Grace Kingston a multi-disciplinary conceptual artist. Thematically Grace looks at notions of connectedness, intimacy, identity and how they manifest themselves in our every day lives and the spaces and environments we occupy. These works often manifest themselves as installation, sculpture, textile and photography work, or some combination of those mediums. Grace has exhibited New York, Finland and Germany. In Australia, Grace has had works in various exhibitions including the Blake Prize for Religious Art. In some of her art making, Grace explores the experience of the natural environment and how this might be transported and reimagined within more artificial and constructed environments such as those mediated by technology and social media. Due to the visual nature of Grace’s artworks, you might like to check out some images whilst listening to this episode. Grace’s website is http://gracekingston.com/ where you can find images of many of the artworks that are discussed, as well as a link to her instagram account.

Analog Jones takes on Disney's black sheep in their The Black Cauldron (1985) VHS Movie Review! Rated: PGReleased: July 4th, 1985Runtime: 80 minutesBudget:$44,000,000 (estimated)Gross USA: $21,288,692 TrailersA Bug's Life Teaser TrailerMeet the Deedles Kiki's Delivery Service (Kristen Dunst is the voice actor and Matthew Lawerence)Pocahontas II: Journey to a New WorldLady and the Tramp Coming to Video this fallLion King II: Simba's Pride Only on Video Trivia- it is loosely based on the first two books in The Chronicles of Prydain by Lloyd Alexander, a series of five novels that are, in turn, based on Welsh mythology.-The first Disney animated movie to not contain any songs, neither performed by characters nor in the background.-Known by many as "the film Disney tried to bury," fans of the fantasy genre and this movie have tried many times to get the deleted footage restored.-Suspended from video release for several years, due to its dark content.-First full-length Disney animated movie since Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs (1937) to have completed scenes cut before release.-Tim Burton, who worked as a Conceptual Artist on this movie, wanted to incorporate minions of the Horned King that were akin to the "facehuggers" from the Alien film franchise. Some samples of his work can be seen on Disney's 2000 DVD of this movie.-This movie is notable for being the first full-length Disney animated movie to incorporate computer graphics imagery (CGI) in its animation. The CGI was utilized for a lot of the special effects, which included the bubbles, a boat, a floating orb of light, the Cauldron, the realistic flames were seen near the end of the movie, and the boat that Taran and his friends used to escape the castle-The production of this movie can be traced back to 1971 when Walt Disney Pictures purchased the screen rights to Lloyd Alexander's "The Chronicles of Prydain." This movie took over twelve years to make, five years of actual production, and cost over twenty-five million dollars. Over one thousand different hues and colors were used, and thirty-four miles of film stock was utilized.-Ralph Bakshi was approached to be involved with this movie in 1979 after the success of his fantasy film Wizards (1977), and his animated adaptation of The Lord of the Rings (1978). He turned it down, believing his style is far too mature for a Disney movie for family entertainment.-Various members of Disney's "Nine Old Men," as well as Don Bluth, took stabs at making this movie during the 1970s.-According to Producer Joe Hale, "When (Jeffrey) Katzenberg first screened the film, he told us to cut it by ten minutes. Roy (Disney) and I got together and found some scenes we could get rid of, that didn't affect the story that much." When they ran it again for Jeffrey Katzenberg, and the film finished, he asked Roy Edward Disney, "Is that ten minutes?" When Disney replied, "No, it was only around six minutes." Katzenberg stated, "I said ten minutes!" Hale continued, "Eventually he cut out about twelve minutes, which really hurt the picture."-Four months before the film's release, The Samuel Goldwyn Company had released The Care Bears Movie (1985) which was made by the much smaller company Nelvana. It only cost $2 million but made $23 million at the box office. By contrast, The Black Cauldron cost $44 million but only made $21.3 million. This alarmed many Disney animators and raised questions about the future of the department. Discuss these movies and more on our Facebook page.

Recommended to us by former SOTA guest, Carla Gannis, SOTA is very excited to speak with conceptual artist, Rachel Ara, about her immersive installation, Transubstantiation of Knowledge. The holographic, mixed-reality journey, Transubstantiation of Knowledge, opened at the Victoria & Albert Museum in September 2018 installed in the V&A’s Medieval and Renaissance Galleries. The piece takes the form of an audio guide and uses a Hololens allowing visitors to interact with and hear the stories of Franciscan nuns occupying the galleries. The piece is an example of Rachel's art-making approach which selects the medium and material based on the message she wishes to convey. In this episode, Rachel explains her use of tech in Transubstantiation of Knowledge, the inspiration behind the work as well as another piece, This Much I'm Worth, her dedicated trajectory into the art world, and her thoughts on the accessibility of the arts and what it is to be an artist.-About Rachel Ara-Conceptual and Data artist Rachel Ara graduated with a Fine Art BA from Goldsmiths College where she won the prestigious Burston award. In 2016 she won the International Aesthetica Art Prize for This Much I’m Worth [the self-evaluating artwork]. Pulling on her experiences as a computer system designer, the digital sculpture draws on data and complex algorithms to calculate its own value in real time.Her work is nonconformist with a socio-political edge that often incorporates humour and irony with feminist & queer concerns. Rachel is a Near Now Fellow, awarded to pioneering artists working in technology. She is also artist in residence at the V&A in London.Learn more hereTweet her @rachelaraFollow her @rachelara-About Transubstantiation of Knowledge-Informed by her research into the museum’s systems and data, Ara is creating a site specific mixed reality work investigating systems of knowledge and power by interweaving stories from Franciscan nuns, computer code and contemporary technologies. Within the chapel the installation takes the form of an audio guide with a hololens. Using the Hololens the viewer will be able to see and interact with holographic nuns in the chapel. Behind the church are cases with "false" objects mixed into the real V&A collections that substantiate the story and add more intrigue. In the whispering galleries is a soundscape formed out of the voices of the women at the V&A which interact with a giant chestnut and fibre optic loom behind the Eucharist.-About This Much I'm Worth-This much I’m worth [The self-evaluating Artwork] is a digital art piece that continually displays its sale value through a series of complex algorithms called "the endorsers". It is constructed with materials that have a history loaded with association. Implicated in the history of neon is its use in the sex trade, its cultural significance today is more commonly a trope of contemporary art. It is both a functional object and spectacle seeking to question values, worth and algorithmic bias.

Daniel J. Wilson was working on a screenplay when I met him during a mini life in Buenos Aires several years ago. I'd soon learn that he was also an accomplished artist, with his work covered in The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, and The London Times, and displayed all over the world, including the Museum of Modern Art in New York. Daniel has also worked in film, his IMDB page includes editing credits for a number of documentaries and TV series, co-producer credits for PBS's Frontline series, credits as an actor. He's also a competitive cycler, a former NYC Yellow Cab driver, and he's currently a PhD candidate in neuroscience. If that weren't enough, Daniel's got a new app. It's called Minutiae. It's a bit of an "anti-social" network. When Instagram encourages you to scroll through lots of photos and make your life look amazing, this app is dedicated to capturing the mundane, everyday details of life. I hear lots of people lament their varied interests. They're usually afraid to follow their curiosity because they're afraid of what they'll leave behind. I've experienced this a lot myself. As I've made the switch to designing in advertising and architecture, to designing for startups, to founding my own startup, to writing books, and starting this podcast – you always have to wonder if you're killing your career when you switch paths. Here's just a few things you're going to learn in this conversation: Daniel's app Minutiae is delightfully impractical. It won't get acquired and it won't go public. How do you get the funding to build an app that's not a business? Why did Daniel go through all of the work to get his NYC Yellow Cab license? He actually ended up working as a cab driver! Daniel's always switching from one field to another, and planning adventures in his life. Hear how he thinks about learning how to know the unknown.
