Magicians Without Borders has brought free magic shows to 40 countries and approximately a million people, and it provides free three-to-four-year education programs in magic to thousands of young people in “the forgotten places of the world.” Carlos Lopez, a leader of Magicians Without Borders, unpacks the developmental power of magic when it is taught to young people in impoverished communities. “If your situation seems impossible,” he says. “If you see and experience wonder, it might awaken hope that the impossible can become possible.” Chatting with host Desire Wandan, Lopez shares his journey from a privileged life in Bogota, Colombia, to teaching magic in slums and refugee camps worldwide. In the process, he has, in his words, helped to create “social tissue that is weaving lives together that were not supposed to be intertwined.” Website: https://www.magicianswithoutborders.com/ https://www.carloslopez.co/ Instagram: @carloshlopez @magicianswithoutborders ----more---- Welcome to All Power to the Developing, a podcast of the East Side Institute.

Host Desire Wandan talks with Abbie VanMeter, Executive Director of Collaborative Innovation for the Coordinated Management of Meaning Institute, and Don Waisanen, Professor at Baruch College, CUNY Marxe School of Public and International Affairs. Their conversation focuses on Coordinated Management of Meaning (CMM)—a communication theory and a lived practice—which approaches human communication as how we together create meaning. “CMM and social therapeutics have a shared understanding of human beings as builders of the social world,” says VanMeter. This conversation provides a concise and clear introduction to this important social constructionist approach to interpersonal communication, and its potential impact on our weary and wounded world stuck in age-old communication traps.

Katie BEE (aka Kate McGlynn) is a remarkable human being who has lived her life saying “yes” and then figuring it out. She has been a teen peer counselor, taught improv, laughter yoga and meditation. She worked for 12 years as a street performer in Europe, as a circus performer all over the world, and as a performance-inspired community organizer in Detroit and other cities. In 2021 with the pandemic raging, Katie founded the Joy First Foundation and spent the next three years living in a trailer traveling the U.S.A. bringing joy to the nation's front-line workers—retail workers, nurses, airline employees—who gave so much with so little appreciation during the pandemic. Her mission soon broadened, and she spent her days visiting dinners, hospitals, bars, airports, shopping centers, etc. talking to strangers, thanking everyone she met for waking up that morning. “Appreciation, Recognition, Acknowledgement, and Gratitude” are, she says are windows that let the joy in. “You can lift a person up so easily because no one else is appreciating them.” In this conversation with host Desire Wandan, Katie BEE shares her life story, the relationship between humor, appreciation and development, and welcomes all to travel the road of joy she helping to build.

Malia Gilbert-Neal, the executive director of Arts Well, grew up poor and Black in Philadelphia and has been creating community empowerment organizations her entire adult life. In conversation with host Desire Wandan, she shares her life story and the work of Art Well, founded in 2000 in response to chronic community violence in Philly. Today Art Well partners with over 400 organizations to bring arts related activities to schools, libraries, health and social service organizations throughout the Philadelphia area. In all her work Gilbert-Neal strives to focus on the wellness of individuals, communities and the earth. “America makes it very hard to be well. We're all experiencing the same capitalism that is overworking and underpaying people, expecting them to make huge sacrifices of themselves for the sake of profit and dollars. We're all experiencing the same racism, sexism and challenges to our human rights,” says Gilbert-Neal. “We're all swimming in these systems of oppression, so it's really important to talk about wellness and how to sustain it.” www.theartwell.org Instagram: @Maliaknowsthings ----more---- Welcome to All Power to the Developing, a podcast of the East Side Institute.

Cissie Gool House was an abandoned hospital in Cape Town, South Africa, empty and decaying for 40 years, when homeless activists snuck past security on the night of March 27, 2017, and began an occupation that, seven years later, has transformed it into a vibrant self-governing community of 1,000 formerly homeless, evicted, and displaced people. Two leaders of Cissie Gool House, Karen Hendricks and Fagmeedah Ling, join host Desire Wandan to discuss how the residents themselves renovated the building, set up working committees to deal with elder, youth, maintenance and security issues, and expanded their occupation into a movement that now convenes “Peoples' Assemblies” to teach others about tenants' rights, fights evictions, monitors the housing courts, and agitates for enforcement of South Africa's constitution, which declares that, “everyone has the right to have access to adequate housing.” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y4iG4wYQeu0&t=12s This 6-minute clip explains the occupation and features Karen This is the website link to Reclaim The City: https://reclaimthecity.org.za/ An NPR article about the three occupations part of Reclaim the City. https://news.wjct.org/2022-12-24/inside-south-africas-hijacked-buildings-all-we-want-is-a-place-to-call-home ----more---- Welcome to All Power to the Developing, a podcast of the East Side Institute.

Founder and leader Mel Young, and formerly homeless player turned referee Sarah Frohwein talk with host Desire Wanden about why and how the Homeless World Cup was born, spread across the planet, and is bringing dignity and community to those without a home. “How on earth have we created a system that leaves millions of people living on the streets?” asks Young. “It's crazy. We don't have to have it. We sent men to the moon, we invented the internet, and we can fix it. The aim of the Homeless World Cup is not to exist because there will be no homelessness.” www.homelessworldcup.org ----more---- Welcome to All Power to the Developing, a podcast of the East Side Institute.

In 2020 with the pandemic ravishing Brazil and the country's president doing nothing to combat it, a group of progressive Brazilian educators, led by Dr. Fernanda Liberali, of the Pontifical Catholic University of São Paulo and an East Side Institute Associate, found a way to move forward through play. Inspired by the Global Play Brigade, which was (and is) bringing play and performance out around the world through Zoom, they organized the Brincadas, which have taken play into the schools and streets of São Paulo. In this episode, a group of Brincadas share how play gave them a way to breathe during a suffocating moment and to go beyond traditional education to, “play with serious injustice. We're not teaching, we're building ensembles for social change and play is the means for building the ensemble."

Francine Kilemann and Marcia Donadel are bringing their experience with site-specific, immersive theatre to elementary school education in Brazil. Through Plato Cultural they lead students and teachers in creating fictional worlds in which the children become “SOS Agents” from the future tasked with helping to save the environment. The months-long performance is one in which nothing is taught in the traditional sense of the word. Instead, the students learn through the experience of performing. “Once we enter this fictional world,” says Kilemann, “we can ask ‘What if?' and a range of possibilities emerge that we wouldn't have if we had limited ourselves to the ‘facts.'” Hosted by Desire Wandan. ----more---- Welcome to All Power to the Developing, a podcast of the East Side Institute.

In this fascinating, delightfully surprising and moving conversation with host Desire Wandan, Licardi shares his commitment to helping people “play in their wounds” and use “performance to go beyond the social roles” imposed on them. “Healing doesn't happen alone,” he says. “Healing is a process we choose to engage in with others.” The healing he talks about goes way beyond the individual. “I refuse to accept the world and it is,” says Licardi, “I want us to imagine impossible worlds together.” http://thesvenbo.com/books http://thesvenbo.substack.com/ ----more---- Welcome to All Power to the Developing, a podcast of the East Side Institute.

Ralph Casanova, aka King Up Rock—hip hop dance pioneer, international teacher, and a community organizer with deep roots in his neighborhood of Bushwick, Brooklyn—shares his life, art, and love for his community with host Desire Wandan. His father was a noted conga player, his mother an expert salsa dancer and Casanova was playing drums and piano at neighborhood parties by the age of five. As he grew up in the 1970s, there were hundreds of dance crews in Brooklyn developing moves distinct from those in the Bronx—and Casanova brought them out across New York City, the U.S., and, eventually, Europe as well. He has brought his unique hip-hop dance to Russia, Ukraine, Spain, Switzerland, and Germany. His Dollar Jams, parties that bring young people, dance veterans, and parents together to sustain and build community through dance, have been going on for decades in Bushwick. https://www.gofundme.com/f/dollar-jam-charity ----more---- Welcome to All Power to the Developing, a podcast of the East Side Institute.

In 2022 the conflicted and shifting relationships between Taiwan, China, and the United States have gained worldwide attention. Within that global frame, this intimate political conversation between East Side Institute co-founder and director Lois Holzman and Taiwanese social worker, activist, and political organizer Peiyu Kuo takes on a special significance. As a young psychiatric social worker, Peiyu was shocked to see how mental patients were treated in her native Taiwan and decided she had “to do something different.” She has spent the next 25 years organizing, among others, people with so-called mental illness, immigrant women, and sex workers. Building on her deep organizing history, Peiyu and Holzman discuss identity politics, trauma, power, and development. ----more---- Welcome to All Power to the Developing, a podcast of the East Side Institute.

Meet East Side Institute Associate, Nicola Pauling, whose Wellington, New Zealand-based Voice Arts builds community through play and performance. Most recently, bringing performance workshops into nursing and retirement homes for the elderly, Voice Arts takes theatre games and exercises used by actors to prepare for the stage and adapts them — “seeking the outcome of joy, laughter, emotional and spiritual well-being.” In this conversation with the Institute's Janet Wootten, Pauling recounts the history of community engagement projects she has created with prisoners, refugees, school children — evolving an approach to drama activities where there are “no stages, no audiences, and no lines to learn.” Playing, improvising and storytelling become the means through which all can give performatory voice to the stories of their lives and grow. Pauling is active in the Global Play Brigade and a founding member of the Reimaging Dementia Coalition.

Dementia, for most of us, is associated with stigma, fear and dehumanization. What if, instead of approaching it as a dreaded medical disease that we had to fight, we collaborated with it and found ways to help those diagnosed—along with those around them—to continue to be creative and grow? That's exactly what John Killick has been doing for thirty years, bringing poetry and other creative arts to people with dementia in hospitals, nursing homes and prisons with remarkable and moving results.

Can music be developmental? Probably not. However, the creation of music—particularly when done in ensemble through improvisation—most certainly can. Ursel Schlicht, an innovative music maker based in Kassel, Germany, shares her approaches to creating music across political and cultural borders. Her “Sonic Exchange” program is an international crucible of musical experimentation that for years has brought together strangers, including refugees fleeing the wars in Syria and Afghanistan, to create new music together. “It requires listening, appreciating what the other is bringing to the process, and discovering together what new is being created,” says Schlicht. “In the weirdest, most difficult circumstances we can be together in music and we can find joy in its creation.” Hosted by Janet Wootten.

What if young people weren't required to go to school? What if we could invent other ways for them to learn and grow that worked just as well, or better? Meet Ken Danford, former middle school teacher, who in 1996, frustrated by the coerciveness of traditional classroom environments, founded the North Star in Sunderland, Massachusetts.

Director, Sabal Foundation, and social therapist; and Claire Molyneux, senior lecturer in Music Therapy, Anglia Ruskin Univ., UK, are on the front lines of reimagining dementia.

Snap. Wham. Zoink. What does that sound like in your head? What do you visualize when you hear these words said out loud? These mouth sounds , or onomatopoeia if you want to get technical, are the basis for sound effects and sound design and is just one of the tools that sound artist Fred Newman uses to take create an auditory journey, are real theater of the mind, for animations and films. With every zip, zap and scrunch, Fred contorts his face and vocal chords, personifying each sound that he makes. He is a master of this. Throughout his long career as an actor, voice actor, composer, comedian, musician, and singer, Fred has created the voice or sounds of some of our most loved and watched characters. Fred was the voices for both the furry little Mogwai and the slimy green monsters in the 80’s horror flick Gremlins . He was the voice of Skeeter, among others in the long running cartoon franchise Doug . For a more nostalgic generation, he served as the sound effects maestro for the old-time radio homage Prairie Home Companion . The sound scape is Fred Newman’s world. In this episode of Creative Mind, Fred walks us through the concept of sound, why each crinkle and snort leaves a lasting impression on us. How simple, but immediately recognizable sounds, like the trumpet-like blast from an elephant, lock into our consciousness and forever become associated with a felling. It is these feelings that he, and all sound designers and composers are trying to elicit from the listener or viewer all the time. They become layers in a larger audio landscape. And each snort and swish Fred creates out of thin air is a story in and of itself. A must hear, for anyone interested in how sound can guide your thinking and tell a unique story. After you listen head over to our YouTube page to see Fred on stage and in action. For more insights into the world of music, film scores, and sound design check out previous Creative mind episodes with the Director of the School of Music Production & Sound Design for Visual Media, Brad Hughes and film composer Gunnard Doboze .

How do I describe this guy? He's the sort of man that would not like any sort of description, I believe! But, in short, he's one of the most amazing sound-effects and voice guys in the world. He's very respected and you've probably heard his voice in everything from Doug to Men in Black to A Prairie Home Companion. From Wikipedia, regarding the latter, "In an audience favorite feature of the program, Keillor tells an apparently impromptu story that is funny because it requires Newman to strain to supply rapid-fire sound effects for unusual occurrences and obscure animals."

Produced by Tampa's WTVT in 1989, now FOX 13 Tampa, “The Making of… The Disney-MGM Studios Theme Park” was hosted by Fred Newman. He also hosted the “All New Mickey Mouse Club” from 1989-1994 which was filmed at the Studios. The behind the scenes special includes a storyline featuring Fred Newman going undercover to find out what this Hollywood in Florida is all about. The Storyline is a little corny in retrospect, but the interviews with Imagineers and construction images more than make up for the storyline. Also included are images as far back as April 1987 when only a hole where Echo Lake would be was identifiable. We get to watch the iconic Chinese Theater get its top and a look at how Hollywood influenced construction all over Hollywood Boulevard, from the Crossroads of America to California crazy architecture. The interviews with cast members during construction and Disney Executives including Michael Eisner and Jeffery Katzenberg echo what MGM Studios was all about at opening, a working movie and television studio where you could get a look at movie magic. The interview also gives us an early look at The Great Movie Ride and an up-close look at the Mickey Mouse sculpture that would be installed at the Crossroads of America. Though not produced by Disney, this special is a great way of looking behind the scenes. The Making of The Disney-MGM Studios Theme Park.
Rave: verb to talk wildly or incoherently, as if one were delirious or insane. Why Frank in lederhosen may be sparking a 'feud' with @MorningMonorail, beer garden love/hate, The Miz is Jen's favorite, #MMC30, a quarter century debate about Fred Newman, and why Damon can only be a certain Dillos second favorite all time member of The All New Mickey Mouse Club. Like a gondola over troubled lake water, it's Theme Park Thursday!!! Theme composed by Matt Harvey. Intro/Outro performed by Lindsay Zaroogian. Facebook - Instagram - Twitter - Website

The Gist of Freedom Preserving American History through Black Literature . . .
Join The Gist of Freedom tonight as we welcome Lenora Branch Fulani. Ms. Fulani has spent almost three decades fighting to end the two-party system and create a “viable, national, pro-socialist” party for those who feel ignored by the Democratic and Republican parties. Fulani ran for the presidency in 1988 and 1992. She grew up in Chester, PA and watched her father die because, she said, no ambulance would come to her poor, African-American neighborhood. This, along with the firing of a gay choir director at her church, shaped her desire to address injustice. A scholarship student at Long Island's Hofstra University, she graduated in 1971 and then earned a master's degree from Columbia University's Teachers College and a Ph.D. in developmental psychology from the City University of New York, where she was much influenced by Dr. Fred Newman, who would serve as both a mentor and her campaign manager. While a guest researcher at Rockefeller University, she joined Newman's New York Institute for Social Therapy and Research and his New Alliance Party (NAP).
We'll explore Lois Holzman's new book, The Overweight Brain: How Our Obsession with Knowing Keeps Us from Getting Smart Enough to Make a Better World, and how she is writing it publicly through social media. Plus, we'll talk about Discover Development NYC, a 3-day exploration of New York’s development community that Lois is leading later this month, and her social therapy work, an approach to human development and learning that she has pioneered with Fred Newman. Lois is the director and co-founder of the East Side Institute, convener of the Performing the World conference, and author of several books, including Performing Psychology: A Postmodern Culture of the Mind and Vygotsky at Work and Play.
Garrison Keillor, the beloved host of public radio's "Prairie Home Companion," is coming to Portsmouth this month on the "A Prairie Home Companion - Summer Love Tour."
