This is the 5th COVID special episode. In this episode, I have four high-achieving artists: Dr. Kate Just, Dr. Tal Fitzpatrick, Zara Sullivan and Nathan Beard talking about their art projects that they have been carrying out during COVID19 and speaking about their creative process and mind-space in making these projects during the COVID down time. Dr. Kate and Dr, Tal are producing a collaborative project titled: #covid19quilt on the instagram platform @covid19quilt. Zara is delivering her project “Angle Exchange” and hosting a live performance channel on IGTV.  Nathan is managing his island of Slovetzia in Animal Crossing game where he has built an art gallery and migrated his 1st life exhibition tilted White Gilt 2.0 and originally shown at FirstDraft into this Slovetzia gallery. To me, like many other artists and people who struggled in the 1st lockdown period to keep up a creative life and now is adjusting mentally again in the 2nd lockdown, hearing about these artists' wonderful artworks and persistence in art-making, is absolutely inspiring and stimulating. I hope this episode could bring the same positive and creative energy to the listeners and help you all happily go through the new low of the 2nd lockdown time.Episode notes:Dr. Kate Justhttp://www.katejust.comDr. Tal Fitzpatrickhttps://talfitzpatrick.comZara Sullivanhttps://www.zarasullivan.comNathan Beardhttps://www.nathanbeard.orgProjects:1, Kate and Tal's COVID19quiltInstagram @covid19quilt2, Zara's Angle ExchangeInstagram @Zarasully.artisthttps://busprojects.org.au/program/angel-exchange?fbclid=IwAR2SoJ_6zWaTDb-AQILeqpzVmBfJHYftTOYCk7kZZm49QbYim5MmkP0MxTI3, An interview and announcement about Nathan's White Gilt 2.5 on FirstDraft website https://firstdraft.org.au/news/nathanbeardnewhorizonsWhite Gilt 2.0https://firstdraft.org.au/2020-program-pt-1/whitegilt2point0-s3c82

This is the 2nd special episode for COVID 19 lockdown period. This episode is made in collaboration with Trocadero Art Space, an artist run initiative space in Melbourne, to host the artist and curator talk for the exhibition titled Across The Haze. This exhibition was shown at Trocadero Art space for a short period from March 18 to April 4, before COVID19 lockdown. It, a group exhibition, presented new works produced by 8 artists who are working across the world in response to the curatorial question about the connectivity in the midst of uncertainty. This exhibition was curated by one of the exhibiting artist, Corinna Berndt, a Melbourne based artist and PhD candidate of the Victorian College of the Arts.  The 6 exhibiting artists join in this talk. They are Shraddha Borawake, Dongyan Chen, Rochyne Delaney McNulty, Sophie Morrow, Marcia Vaitsman and Corinna Berndt. Due to the large number of speakers, this episode has been divided into two parts. You are listening to the first part. In this part, Corinna will introduce this exhibition by talking about the curatorial concept and the making of this exhibition. Marcia, Dongyan, Rochyne and Sophie, and Corina will speak about their works. Episode notes:Trocadero Art Spacehttp://www.trocaderoartspace.com.auCross the Hazehttp://www.trocaderoartspace.com.au/uncategorized/troc-talks-online/?fbclid=IwAR1nMYWLrWpS1v4WkTCm_eMfMvKDjbpWEzXCi_OpyzUk9i81nfkYwH1eDF8Cynthia Arrieu-King (USA)http://cynthiaarrieuking.blogspot.comCorinna Berndt (Australia / Germany)https://corinnaberndt.netShraddha Borawake (India)http://shraddhaborawake.comDongyan Chen (Singapore / China)https://dongyanchen.comRochyne Delaney McNulty (England)https://www.curatorspace.com/artists/RochynedmSophie Morrow (Australia)https://www.sophiemorrow.comIvetta Sunyoung Kang (Canada / South Korea)https://ivettakang.com/AboutMarcia Vaitsman (Brazil)https://vaitsman.wordpress.com

This is the 3rd special episode for COVID19 time. In this episode, three visual artists: Sarah Rudlege, Ann Mcginley and Nico Reddaway and I made a delightful conversation about their pre-COVID19 oversea residencies. Sarah, as the last participating artist in the artist residency program of Matsushima Bunko Museum, went to Matsushima island in Japan; Ann took Casa Na Iiha artist residency in Iihabela in Brazil; and Nico engaged in the art program for asylum seeker refugees in Finland and worked for the art workshops at Heikinharju Reception Centre in Oulu, when she visited Oulu as an exchange student with University of Oulu.Listening to them talking about their times outside Australia in this COVID19 isolation, was like to hear fictional stories. But it took my mind on a pleasant trip across the brick walls of my flat and national borders. Before the conversation, I imagined a lonely working environment that they would have confronted in their times overseas, and expected to get some tips from them to overcome the challenge in this solitary working environment. I hoped these tips would be applicable for artists who struggle in COVID 19 social isolation life. However, their answers were surprised me and opened up a new way for me to think about the idea of working in solitude. I hope you will enjoy to listening to this episodes.Follow #ThreeBellybuttons onTwitter: @ThreeBellybutt1Facebook: ThreebellybuttonspodcastInstagram: @threebellybuttonspodcast>>> Episode notes: /// The artists:Ann McGinleyhttp://www.annmcginley.netFollow her art on instagram: @mcginley985Nico Reddawayhttps://nicoreddaway.com/about/Follow her art projects on instagram: @incognic0Sarah Rudledgehttp://www.sarahrudledge.com/// Casa Na Iiha artist residency, Bazilhttps://www.casanailha.org/// University of Ouluhttps://www.oulu.fi/university//// Matsushima Bunko Museum http://matsushima.sitehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yvNk6iR4iTg

Hello listeners, We have indeed gone into 2020. But I reckon it has been a very bumpy transfer of the year for many people. Particularly in this current strange and fearful coronavirus pandemic time, I wish everyone stay safe at home and keep positive. I hope this podcast could bring you some stress relief and a contact to the art at home.This first episode of 2020, is a conversation made in December 2019 between Zamara Zamara, Emanuel Rodriguez and I.  It was just before Emanuel returned to his home country Costa Rico. In the conversation, Emanuel shared his experience of visiting MONA at the first time, in particularly his personal experience of visiting Alfredo Jaar’s spectacular installation titled The Divine Comedy shown at MONA at that time.  Joined with Emanuel, Zamara talked about their experiences of seeing some performance artworks in Documenta 14 and the 57th Venice Biennale in 2017. Please enjoy listening this episode. More episodes will come up shortly. **Apology for the mistake in this episode: The title of Alfredo Jaar's work shown in MONA is The Divine Comedy. Episode Notes:Speakers:Emanuel Rodriguez Chaveshttp://www.emanuelrodriguez.netZamara Zamarahttp://zamarazamara.comThe artists and exhibitions talked about in this episode: Alfredo Jaarhttps://alfredojaar.net/projects/“The Divine Comedy” 2019https://www.facebook.com/watch/?v=470846330447160Peter Greenawayhttps://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000425/James Turrellhttp://jamesturrell.comJamie McCartneyThe Great Wall of Vagina (2008)https://jamiemccartney.comTino SehgalLiving Memory 2016https://www.artnews.com/art-news/reviews/living-memory-tino-sehgal-takes-over-pariss-palais-de-tokyo-with-300-performers-and-a-few-friends-7186/Aphidswww.aphids.net

 https://ia601507.us.archive.org/27/items/CeskyLivesEpisode255-doorMatBoy/Clep255-doorMatBoy.mp3 Hello listeners,this weeks tune is a collaboration I did with Elliot Careswell of The Milkmen, (excellent band, check 'em out: https://www.facebook.com/TheMilkmen01/). Did it a long while ago but never put it up anywhere because I thought it was maybe a little mean spirited, the mean spirit in it has since died and also the lyrics are fairly trippy things anyways so I'm just putting it out there anyways, as a back up tune for some time off while I'm moving house/packing up things and such and also because Elliot's tune for this song is alot of fun I think. Hope you enjoy, and thanks for listening, this week I did a colour drawing, took a while, but I had fun doing it, here it is taking shape with the tune over the top. Have an excellent NYE, and also entire next year as best you can. 

In this program you meet the the famous rider and World Championship Winner Jolly Schrenk. The program is presented in collaboration with Horsemeup.se #horsemeup.se #becausewelovehorses

 https://ia601504.us.archive.org/22/items/CeskyLivesEpisode249-fridge/CLEP249-Fridge.mp3 Hello listeners,this weeks tune I wrote really venting about horrible things and I think it turned out kind of a little more hopeful than I thought, which is good. Anyways, hopefully it's a fun listen, cheers for your ears and time.　Here's a video/drawing to go with the tune:   https://cesky.bandcamp.com/  

 https://ia601508.us.archive.org/20/items/CeskyLivesEpisode241-cakeInTheBath/Clep241-cakeInTheBath.mp3 Hello listeners, this weeks tune is about me trying to relax by playing video games and having baths, and how it isn't really working. Hopefully it's a fun song, not at all serious. Many thanks to the supportive folks who listen. Here's a video/drawing/adlibbed comic strip, to go with the tune:  

 https://ia601501.us.archive.org/12/items/CeskyLivesEpisode238-sherlock/CLEP238-Sherlock.mp3 Hello listeners, this weekend I decided to chill out some, very purposefully, and drag out every piece of musical anything at all that I had, hook them all up to a recording device and adlib a thing. This weeks song is that thing. I had a lot of fun making it, hopefully it's a fun listen, obviously it's a giant audio mess also, but that's kind of the point, once only made up on the spot kind of a thing. Anyways, here's a video to go with it:    

 https://ia601503.us.archive.org/10/items/CeskyLivesEpisode237-religiousRantsOnSickDayNumber3/Clep237-religiousRantsOnSickDayNumber3.mp3 Hello listeners, this weeks tune is one of now 2 all electronically conceived tunes that this podcast has contained, the last being because I was sick and had no time or energy for anything else,(this one: http://ceskylives.blogspot.com.au/2015/08/episode-131-i-wanna-remember-it-just.html), and this one for the exact same reason. I made this song in my bed, with an ipad and some midi stuff, when you're sick, you can still get shit done. Here's a video to go with it; It's layers of anti religious ranting you-tubers, I typed in 'religious rant', expecting to have videos of preaching or something similar and all I got was a ton of anti religious stuff, which seemed all very aimless and negative and sad. I'm not a fan of religion myself but to wallow in complaining about it on the internet on a regular basis seems like a waste of energy, anyways, the audio from these videos suited the song as samples so that's why I used them.

Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us, to Him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, for ever and ever! Amen. Ephesians 3:20-21 The question is not how powerful God is, because as Christians we know that His power is unlimited and the known universe testifies to this, but the real ‘eye-grabber’ in this verse is how great the power is that is at work WITHIN US! The channel for God’s power most of the time is us! We are the lightening rods for God’s power. The Him referred to here is God the Father and He is glorified through His people (the church) and through Jesus and every generation brings the Father new offerings of glory. Remember that we don’t need to be powerful in ourselves, we just need to be the lightening rods for God’s power.To listen click here!

“You are the light of the world. A city on a hill cannot be hidden. Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house. In the same way, let your light shine before men, that they may see your good deeds and praise your Father in heaven.” Matthew 5:14-16 NIV Jesus said I am the light of the world but here He states so clearly that we also are the light of the world. I think it’s easy to under-estimate what we have as Christians. We have as much advantage over the non-Christian as a person walking through difficult terrain in daylight has over a person stumbling along through darkness. In the living Bible in 1 Corinthians 2:15 it says ‘But the spiritual man has insight into everything, and that bothers and baffles the man of the world, who can’t understand him at all.” I think too often we defer to the ‘experts of the world’, but as Christians we have the perspective and the insight to bring order out of chaos and solutions that will lead mankind to a truly bright future. We don’t need to be arrogant about that, but neither should we be hiding our light under a bowl, but rather we should let our light shine before men. To listen click here!
