Host Sam J leads an interactive session exploring creative exercises to unlock new thinking patterns.This episode covers:The 9-dot puzzle challenge: Classic "thinking outside the box" exercise demonstrating how we create invisible constraints—the solution requires extending lines beyond the perceived square boundary, revealing our mental limitationsExpanding creative boundaries: Progressive variations of the puzzle (folding paper, rolling into tubes, creative material manipulation) show there are always bigger boxes to escape beyond our current thinkingBauhaus composition exercise: Using only three basic shapes (circle, line, triangle) to create varied compositions—forces creative problem-solving through extreme simplification while exploring scale and arrangementGesture drawing and timed exercises: Quick 30-second to 1-minute sketches help overcome perfectionism by forcing completion under constraint, expanding definitions of "done" and reducing overthinkingPhysical creative play: Kinetic sand, Rubik's cubes, paper snowflakes, and improvisational origami as tactile ways to exercise creativity without digital undo buttons—building commitment and spatial reasoningCommunity game recommendations: Gartic Phone for warm-ups, Exquisite Corpse drawing, squiggle games, and the Relocation Game (silent object arrangement exercise) as collaborative creativity buildersUpcoming:We'll be continuing our "Creative Inspiration" theme next week!Open call for 2026 hosts and volunteers—reach out via Discord if interested in contributing.Visit MondayMeeting.org for this episode and other conversations from the motion design community!SHOW NOTES:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Monday Meeting Patreon⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Monday Meeting Discord⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠MondayMeeting LinkedIn⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠MondayMeeting Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠MondayMeeting Bluesky⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠MondayMeeting Newsletter⁠David Judelson's Nine Dot Square ExerciseJen's Creativity WorksheetsDixit GameAbstract Pokemon Artist “8th Project”

This episode features a conversation with Vinthya Perinpanathan and members of the ADAM Quartet about musical exchange and artistic collaboration across genres and histories. The ADAM Quartet is a young string quartet consisting of Minna Svedberg (viola), Margot Kolodziej (violin), Julia Kleinsmann (violin), and Renée Timmer (cello). The group formed in Amsterdam and has performed at major venues and festivals in The Netherlands. Besides playing the traditional string quartet repertoire, ADAM regularly collaborates with contemporary composers working in other musical styles and disciplines. One such composer is this episode's fifth guest, Vinthya Perinpanathan. Trained in Western-Classical music, Vinthya has begun exploring Sri Lankan and South Asian music in her ​​compositions as well. This month, ADAM releases its debut album called Exquisite Corpse, and in January, the string quartet will play a new piece composed by Perinpanathan. In their conversation, and through several audio examples, the ADAM Quartet and Vinthya discuss new music collaborations as well as the importance and challenges of ​combining different musical traditions.

The AMPire Diaries Episode 121: The Originals - “Exquisite Corpse” This BODY is INCREDIBLE? NUH. This CORPSE is EXQUISITE. Yeah. That's more like it. (And yes, I realized after the fact that this bit fits the Drake “Hotline Bling” meme. Sorry for that unintentional corniness. I was actually originally going for The Social Network corniness.) The second season of The Originals really is cooking with propane. That's because, this week, your favorite Vampire Diaries rewatch-slash-first-time watch (and still mostly spoiler-free) combination podcast is discussing The Originals' “Exquisite Corpse” (Season 2, Episode 17). Which means we're talking: - …for 8 and a half minutes (and this is the ABRIDGED version) about things that AREN'T TVDU-related in the intro, in case you wanna skip some dog co-host and movie etiquette talk. - Ex​quisite Corpse, a signature scent. - P.S. LaToya had some audio issues in this one–mostly resolved in the edit–but there are moments when she's not as clear as she usually would be on mic. - Women's rights and women's wrongs, as exemplified by Freya Mikaelson and Eva Sinclair. - What GOOD sexpionage looks like, STEVE. Here's that sexy Bonnie and Clyde shit we were looking for. - Ya gotta watch Blindspot, gang. Ya just gotta. - We just know that Claire still won't sign SHIT. God love her. - The lack of urgency we've been dealing with from the Mikaelsons lately… it's because Klaus simply hasn't been paying attention to this season. (Couldn't be us.) - Is Marcel being a bad dad or a cool (aka “badd”) dad? - Look, you'll never catch your AMPie Queens ending up in a horror movie. - The Magic Limbo. - Hayley… We love you, girl… But you've gotta stop being such a bitca to other women. (But also, never stop. It's really funny..) “CONTROLLING THE DEMON” (“Exquisite Corpse”... and wow, I guess that means we really should've listened to the episode's voiceover more than we did…) Whether you're a Vampire Diaries obsessive or newcomer, join along with hosts LaToya Ferguson (@lafergs—AMPie Queen, Vampire Diaries obsessive) and Morgan Lutich (@LorganMutich—AMPie Queen, Vampire Diaries obsessive) on their continuing podcast journey.* Most importantly, get AMPED (and horny) along with them on this journey.

Artist Scarlett Budden talks about writing scripts for paintings, staging ideas, how she thinks about surface in relation to her subject matter, and more.Scarlett's work explores the complexities of spectatorship and the voyeuristic exploits within both cinematic practices and the traditions of figurative painting. The female protagonist occupies theatrical yet ambiguous spaces that collapse the divide between reality and fiction. A space known only to the sitter. Close-up stills of the body are framed and disguised within illusionist portals to empower the observed to become the observer. These ghostly psychologically layered images haunt their audience. The spectator is given as a cold shoulder as the relationship between abjection and desire is questioned.Through its fragmentation, the body breaks down traditional modes of representation. Instead, the aesthetic whole of the female frame is replaced by an inner voice, as the interior and exterior fuse. The mouth recurs as a metonym for this liminal space and the body becomes a site of rupture, autonomy and agency.The work seeks to move beyond the threshold of conscious perception through the use of subliminal messaging and symbolic imagery such as fish, forests, and the ocean. All of which are symbols of the depths of the human psyche in Jungian psychology. The body is framed as morphic and escapes existing archetypes. Just as the Surrealist's Exquisite Corpse, the self finds power in its fluctuating and indefinite state.Scarlett's work: scarlettbudden.comScarlett's Instagram: @scarlettbuddenstudio

After fighting through last week, Eva Sinclair successfully gets a strong hold over Rebekah, and gets back to her passion in life, killing kids. Hope is targeted, but protected, and everyone else gets to work got save Rebekah, and eventually Davina. Elijah tests his new alliance with Josephine to get rid of Eva, but she is not following for “rebellious girl has passion” twice. Marcel is able to trap Eva with the anti-magic shackles, and enlists Vincent to get information from her. It looks like Vincent may not be as over Eva as it seems though, and he goes off script. Klaus uses the other pair of magic shackles on Freya, to bring her to get a spell from the only person Freya hates as much as Dahlia - Esther! Of course Esther sees the pain in Freya's eyes and decides that means she is evil but it can't possibly be Esther's fault. Klaus makes progress trying to trust Freya, but their feud grows despite kinda being twins. Finally, we get one of the gaggiest deaths yet and yes, we fail the don't say mother challenge again!Remember to rate, review, and share, brothers!Follow us on Instagram and TikTok @doppelgangerspodcast!

In the spring of 1999, songwriter/recording artist Arlan Feiles received a call from Stephen Trask. Trask shared that he was the composer of a show running at the Jane St. Theater in NYC called Hedwig and the Angry Inch, and he was looking for a multi instrumentalist/vocalist for the show's first touring run in Boston. As soon as Arlan heard Trask's magnificent songs, he was on board. 25 years later, Arlan will be reprising his role as Skshp for a 3 week run at the Bell Works Theater in NJ with musician/performer Remember Jones as Hedwig, AND he joins us to unpack the show's pure rock and roll heart that is the Original Cast Recording. Songs discussed in this episode: Intro/Tear Me Down - Hedwig and the Angry Inch/Pace Theatrical Group at The 57 Theater, Boston 1999; It's So Easy - Arlan Feiles; Haha, Bitch! - Remember Jones; Tear Me Down - Hedwig and the Angry Inch (Original Cast Recording); Oh! You Pretty Things - David Bowie; The Origin Of Love, Random Number Generation, Sugar Daddy, Angry Inch - Hedwig and the Angry Inch (Original Cast Recording); Wig in a Box - Polyphonic Spree; Wig in a Box - Hedwig and the Angry Inch (Original Cast Recording); Heaven Can Wait - Meat Loaf; Wicked Little Town - Hedwig and the Angry Inch (Original Cast Recording); Crazy Mixed-Up World - Natural Causes; A Hard Day's Night - The Beatles; The Long Grift, Hedwig's Lament, Exquisite Corpse, Wicked Little Town (Reprise), Midnight Radio - Hedwig and the Angry Inch (Original Cast Recording); Rock 'n' Roll Suicide - David Bowie; Oh, St Louis - Arlan Feiles

HEY! We've got a lot to cover this week. The Big 2 treated us with a duo of trailers. DC's mega long Superman trailer, and Marvels teaser/trailer for the Riri Williams Iron Heart show. They are both good, but we'll tell you WHY they're good to US!!! In comics we'll discuss the new Exquisite Corpse project that got kick started by James Tynion, the blind bag phenomenon that is Battle Beast (an Invincible spin-off series), a new direction for Supergirl where Sophie Campbell does double duty writing and illustrating Kara back in Midvale, and a brief nod of the hat to Godzilla: Here There Be Aliens. 

One last minisode to tide you over through Winterregnum...! As you may or may not be aware, not all the audio we record makes it into the final episodes. It's been a while since an episode with some outtakes, so we've returned to the cutting room floor for random bits of conversation. Here's the list of disconnected items and the episodes they're from: "Sensible advice" (from Episode 19, The Shadow Court) "Dual-wielding" (from Episode 19, The Shadow Court) "Neck fashions" (from Episode 28, Isle of the Mighty: England with Andrew) "Elizabeth II" (from Episode 28, Isle of the Mighty: England with Andrew) "Kith creation" (from Episode 29, Isle of the Mighty: Scotland) "Dots of 90s White Wolf" (from Episode 30, Isle of the Mighty: Wales with Terry) "Coracles" (from Episode 30, Isle of the Mighty: Wales with Terry) "Geography lesson" (from Episode 30, Isle of the Mighty: Wales with Terry) "Lifetime movie" (from Episode 33, The Immortal Eyes Novels) "Lasers and feelings" (from Episode 36, Glamour and Banality) "Death of a freehold" (from Episode 36, Glamour and Banality) "Mage Banality" (from Episode 39, Dreams and Nightmares: Part One with Terry) "The Most Important Dream Realm" (from Episode 39, Dreams and Nightmares: Part One with Terry) "Pooka's proudest moment" (from Episode 44, The Shining Host with Pete) "The world of DIE" (from Episode 45, Queerness and Kinship) "Texas" (from Episode 49, Kingdom of Willows) There's more where that came from, but probably this will suffice for now, as a sampler. And yes, this is really just filler material, but in these curious and uncertain times, we're doing what we can to stoke the balefire and keep ourselves grounded with voices and memories.

The story of The Black Dahlia Murder comes to a close this week as the boys look into one of the most popular suspects in the case: George Hodel, the possibility that the killing had connections to the world of Surrealist Art, "Mind Hunter" John Douglas's theory on the case, as well as the alternative theory that points fingers at a prominent Los Angeles doctor named Walter Bayley.

Podcast listeners click here to view the works Caroline Zilinsky's paintings freeze pivotal moments in our culture's history, encouraging us to reflect upon our times, whether it's the absurdity, the horror or the humour. At the risk of being labelled a conspiracy theorist, she's attracted to the dilemmas brought on by the internet era and shines a light on the things that trouble most of us: our loss of privacy, shortened attention, a heightened focus on appearance,  a growing indifference to human suffering and the increasing power assumed by tech giants. Her paintings often depict a political or social narrative and although she accepts some are too confronting to hang above the sofa, there's something about the levity in her use of line, colour and form which invites us to venture into the darker corners of our culture, causing us to linger and question. Caroline is also well known for her portraiture and landscape painting. She won the Portia Geach Memorial Award portraiture prize in 2020 (the same year she won the Evelyn Chapman award) and has been a finalist in many others including the Archibald and Darling portrait prizes. This interview took place at the mid-career survey show of Caroline's work 'Exquisite Cadaver' at the University of Newcastle Gallery. Curated by Gillean Shaw, it was a collection of 40 stunning works spanning over 2 decades. The interview was also filmed and I'll be posting a video, including footage from the exhibition and Caroline's studio, on the TWP YouTube channel in the coming weeks.

This week we sit down with co-owner of the 806, activist and all-around badass, Courtney Brown. Join us as we talk about the all female group Warpaint and their first EP, Exquisite Corpse. We dig into the sisterhood environment of the band, the different creative dynamics that can happen in artistic circles, and the advantage of always saying “fuck it” to the patriarchy. You won't wanna miss it!

Unseen resonances, John Keel's early work, nefarious tendencies in the UFO subculture, and more in this conversation.

Marcel Dzama has an immediately recognizable style as a visual artist, but his energy has far exceeded the realm of visual art. Born in Winnipeg, Canada in 1974, Dzama got his start with the Royal Art Lodge, a group of students at the University of Manitoba who banded together in the mid-1990s. Their collaborative working method, where one artist would start a work and others finish it, recalled the "Exquisite Corpse," a parlor game associated with the Surrealists. As Dzama developed his own independent practice, moving to New York in 2004, he continued to explore the surreal in watercolor and ink. His work is replete with dancers and masked figures, whimsical animals, groovy monsters, human-plant hybrids, and grinning moons, all in an intricate but deliberately naive style. Dzama has permuted these offbeat interests into a variety of other media as well, from zines to dioramas to films. He's done album art for They Might Be Giants and Beck, made films starring Kim Gordon and Amy Sedaris, and created costumes for both a Bob Dylan music video and the New York City Ballet. Now, he's expanding his list of collaborations even further. New York's performance art biennial, PERFORMA, is returning, with a roster of artists commissioned to do new work in experimental performance of various types. Marcel Dzama's piece, titled To live on the Moon (For Lorca), is among the highlights promised by the 2023 program. In it, the artist fuses multiple threads of his practice, blending costume, dance, drawing, and film. And he also returns to his surrealist inspirations. Specifically, this work is Dzama's tribute to the life and work of Spanish Surrealist poet Federico Garcia Lorca. It incorporates both Lorca's tragic life story and an obscure, unproduced, Surrealist screenplay called A Trip to the Moon, which Lorca wrote while he was living in New York in 1929. It's fascinating material to dig into on many levels. Ahead of the opening of his show at the Abrons Art Center, Dzama came into the Art Angle studio to talk with critic Ben Davis about his work and interests, the impact of Federico Garcia Lorca, and about what surrealism does and doesn't mean today. "Marcel Dzama: To live on the Moon (For Lorca)" is on view at the Abrons Art Center from November 11–14, 2023.

This season was A LOT. Many people, places, incidents, etc. to keep track of, especially over the course of a month. Here we've taken out the intros and outros from episodes 2, 3 and 4 so that you can just follow the story straight from start to finish. You didn't ask for it, but we think you'll really enjoy a re-telling in a more straight forward and easy to follow manner! The full four episodes were too long to upload together so we've split it into 2, easy to listen to in a row, episodes.This season was based on one of Ashley's favorite podcasts of all time, Root of Evil: The True Story of the Hodel Family and the Black Dahlia. As the title explains, the podcast is about the murder of Elizabeth Short (aka "the Black Dahlia"), as well as the Hodel Family.Listen to the Part I first to hear episodes 1 and 2!In this season, Ash and Megan, from Give Us Morgue, explored the man behind the mystery of who killed Elizabeth Short, George Hodel, and the generational wake of terror and destruction that he left, causing members of his own family to name the podcast the "Root of Evil" after him.-In their second to last episode, Ashley and Megan talked about George Hodel's daughter Tamar and the legacy of pain that she left behind her after her father's treatment of her. They also talked about Tamar's first daughter, Fauna, who she had to give up at birth. Fauna had a traumatic upbringing with her adoptive parents, but that may have been her saving grace, because life with Tamar was a living hell for her kids.Trigger Warning: Incest, child abuse, sexual assault and child sex trafficking.-In their last episode, Ashley and Megan talk about George Hodel's obsession with the surrealist art movement, which seemingly dictated his values and how he lived his entire adult life. Mark Nelson, author of The Exquisite Corpse, described surrealism as “an interplay of irrationality, eroticism, and violence…recurring in a broad array of writings and art.” Those sound like excellent themes to live by!Trigger Warning: Generally explicit material.Special thanks to Rasha Pecoraro and Yvette Gentile for allowing us to tell their family's story.
