An artist is someone with creativity, inspiration, and a singular vision. Are those traits limited to “fine” mediums? Who decides who gets to be an artist? In this episode of Borderscapes, ‘Between Fiber and Art,' host Maria McCoy explores why weavers have been blocked out of the fine art world.  Drawing a line between art and craft causes problems. For one, it slights women. Fiber practices, including weaving, knitting, and sewing, are not only categorized as craft, but as “women's work.” Dismissing them discounts passionate women makers, a few of whom you'll meet as a guest of the East Sussex Guild of Weavers, Spinners, and Dyers.   Beyond that, a border between art and craft is just too limiting. Philip Sanderson, studio leader at West Dean Tapestry Studio, explains how tapestry weaving doesn't fit squarely in either category.    So, can this border be dismantled? Listen in to find out!

"Samuel Kudjodzi's field recording of weaving describes how repetition can make a complex process sound graceful. The percussive clattering of the shuttle, the pulse of the treadle, and the boom of the shaft bar do not reflect the quality of the soft fabric being produced. "In my rendering of this field recording, I wanted to preserve as many of the organic elements of the original field recording as possible. I double-tracked the original source material- panning one to the left or right- and applying modulation. A kick drum was added to give a little more low end to the shaft bar. The bass guitar provides some minimal melodic structure to the rhythm. Guitar feedback applied for ambience- and to enhance the drone of the weaving process."

Ahaha (fl. c.1870 BC) was one of the world's earliest known businesswomen. Part of a thriving community of merchants and merchants' wives in the Assyrian Empire, these women left behind archives of ledgers, contracts, and personal notes detailing an entire community of go-getters, nearly 4,000 years ago.  For Further Reading:  The secret letters of history's first-known businesswomen Trade and contraband in ancient Assyria Housewives, Weavers and Businesswomen: Assyrian Women from Assur and Kanesh Women Work, Men are Professionals in the Old Assyrian Private Archives This month we're talking about Go-Getters. Women who purposefully—or accidentally!—acquired life-changing wealth, good fortune, or influence. History classes can get a bad rap, and sometimes for good reason. When we were students, we couldn't help wondering... where were all the ladies at? Why were so many incredible stories missing from the typical curriculum? Enter, Womanica. On this Wonder Media Network podcast we explore the lives of inspiring women in history you may not know about, but definitely should. Every weekday, listeners explore the trials, tragedies, and triumphs of groundbreaking women throughout history who have dramatically shaped the world around us. In each 5 minute episode, we'll dive into the story behind one woman listeners may or may not know–but definitely should. These diverse women from across space and time are grouped into easily accessible and engaging monthly themes like Educators, Villains, Indigenous Storytellers, Activists, and many more. Womanica is hosted by WMN co-founder and award-winning journalist Jenny Kaplan. The bite-sized episodes pack painstakingly researched content into fun, entertaining, and addictive daily adventures.

With all eyes on the conflict in Isreal, Lebanon and Gaza, it can be easy to sink into despair witnessing the endless stream of news stories of violence and devastation. However, there are some who are like lights in the darkness, spreading peace and love at the center of the strife.    We are so honored to have one of those people on our podcast, Nechama Shaina, an expressive arts therapist originally from the Chabad community in the Bay Area of California who currently resides in Israel with her two teenage children. She has a background in clinical psychology and uses dance, drama and visual arts in her therapy. She has been playing an active role in healing those who have been so horribly affected by the current conflict there including giving hands-on treatments for the Kibbutz Be'eri survivors of the October 7th attack where Hamas-led terrorists killed 101 people in that kibbutz alone. She also organizes healing retreats for the grieving Druze women who lost their children during the Hezbollah attack on the soccer field in Majdal Shams this past summer.  Speaking with Nechama, we were in tears listening to how she brings her life journey of creativity, her passion for the sacred feminine and her deep knowledge of the Jewish tradition to anyone who has need allowing those she treats the space to heal on the level of mind, body, heart and soul.  She is a true pioneer, and her diverse background puts her in the unique position to be of great service at this particular time in Israel's history. We feel like we got a glimpse into what it is really like to be there now at the center of the conflict, and surprisingly, miraculously, it was a glimpse of hope.  Meditation Without Borders is currently raising funds to go to Isreal in 2025 in collaboration with Nechama Shaina to teach Vedic meditation to the women and mothers in Isreal of various backgrounds who are most effected by the current conflict.

Like we are opening those gates together and praying in different languages. And that's actually what I did back in the year 2000. There was a whole group of Christians, Muslims and Jews, Israelis that came together overlooking the temple mount and the mosque and the western wall. and right in between the Jewish and Muslim quarter in the old city and we would come together, pray in different languages, talk, sing.”  Nechama  52.27 “I've had this strange opportunity and it's weird to say it's an opportunity to be here in this country for really challenging times. And opportunities for a lot of growth and healing.” Nechama

Three Man Weave: College Basketball Podcast

The SEC's football dominance has been kneecapped by in-conference parity, but the league has an ace up its sleeve: an excellent collection of basketball squads. Texas and Oklahoma join, but its the incumbents - Auburn, Alabama, Tennessee - that are in the national title picture, and the league has wild depth (only #96 Vandy is outside the KenPom top 70).  Per usual, the Weavers dig into each SEC squad and try to figure out what makes it tick. What has to go right? What could potentially hold them back? How #IN are Ky and Jim on their Missouri Tigers? Three new board bets originated in this one - one that isn't even SEC-related!
