How does art influence our perception of the world? Can fostering creativity in education lead to overall personal happiness and growth? What lessons can be drawn from historical and modern art practices?Will Gompertz is the director of Sir John Soane's Museum in London, and the author of several books, including What Are You Looking At?: The Surprising, Shocking, and Sometimes Strange Story of 150 Years of Modern Art, Think Like an Artist: How to Live a Happier, Smarter, More Creative Life, and most recently See What You're Missing.Greg and Will discuss the transformative power of art as a tool for self-help and critical engagement. Will analyzes the impact of creativity in education, emphasizing the need for a balanced curriculum that fosters both artistic and analytical thinking. Greg and Will talk about some key figures in the modern art world such as Pierre Mondrian and Marcel Duchamp, who serve as examples of revolutionary artists that challenged the status quo. Will and Greg also explore new ways to look at the importance of teaching art in schools, and how supportive environments in schools and workplaces, like those fostered under leaders like Satya Nadella, can enhance curiosity and innovation. *unSILOed Podcast is produced by University FM.*Show Links:Recommended Resources:Leonardo da VinciPiero della FrancescaMarcel DuchampFountain (Duchamp)The Death of SocratesSteve JobsLouise BourgeoisPiet MondrianRiccardo MutiSir John Soane's MuseumRoyal Academy of ArtsSatya NadellaDavid Foster WallacePaul CézanneAlbert RothenbergMaurizio CattelanSol LeWittDavid HockneyAlan AyckbournGuest Profile:Profile at the Sir John Soane's Museum of LondonWikipedia ProfileSocial Profile on InstagramSocial Profile on XHis Work:Amazon Author PageSee What You're MissingThink Like an Artist: How to Live a Happier, Smarter, More Creative LifeWhat Are You Looking At?: The Surprising, Shocking, and Sometimes Strange Story of 150 Years of Modern ArtArticles in The GuardianEpisode Quotes:Why is art considered self-help?01:18: I think art is self-help. I think art is self-help by the artist when he or she is trying to express themselves. It's self-help for us as viewers when we're trying to commune with this idea, this thing which has been put before us and asked us to consider it. And so, I think actually for this sort of the crazy world we live in now, museums, galleries, art, the arts more broadly, are the sanest things that are available to us, where humans are thinking and sharing and considering and challenging and sharing their feelings in a way that seems to be completely disappearing from everyday life, which seems to be getting more hectic, more insular, more anxiety-ridden. So actually, I think the arts are an entity, a form of self-help for all involved.Creativity and asking questions make us human07:05: Creativity and asking questions are what make us human. Therefore, when we're doing that, we're at our most human; we're feeling the life force at its most powerful. On creating safe spaces for self-discovery in schools17:56: School should be a place of self-discovery, friendship, community, and expression, not somewhere which feels like an army drill camp; where you get shouted at and told to sit still, sit still, then sit still. But why don't you want to sit still? So we start asking questions and start creating environments where young people feel respected and safe.Do people need to set aside some time for the consumption of art?53:45: Human beings have created art in one way, shape, or form since the very first person walked on this earth. And we will continue to create art until the very last person walks on this earth. It (art) is an essential part of the human experience. Therefore, we should all be given the time and space to enjoy.

What Are You Looking At? // But God // John Isemann by Sunday Podcast
Do you ever find yourself saying yes when actually you want to say no? Why is it so hard to say no? In this episode we talk why it's hard, and how to (maybe) make it easier. Welcome to our podcast for all stitchers, embroiderers, textile artists and creative souls, where we have friendly informal conversations about what it actually means to be an artist working in textiles. Isobel and Gina are both practicing artists and tutors specialising in machine embroidery, but we're still figuring it all out!

This week, we ask a couple of simple questions" What do you want?" and "what are you willing to do to get it?" This week, we're digging into these questions and sharing real-world examples of the kinds of decisions artists face when growing a business ... should you invest in that new website? Should you start a Youtube channel? Should you give that speech at the local art society? While neither of us is perfect (by any means!), we have both done some work on our long-term visions, both for our art and our lives. We use this knowledge of our desires to guide decisions about what we are willing to spend, or sacrifice, or work towards. Perhaps you have done the same or perhaps you find yourself torn about these kinds of issues, unsure of the right move. If so, we hope this episode will help you develop your own clear sense of where you're going ... and what you are willing to do to get there.

“What Are You Looking At?” from Facing Your Giants by Rev. Phil Anderson. Released: 2021. The post What Are You Looking At? appeared first on Bethel Church of Tallmadge.
What Happens if you are a successful Artis and you find out that you are losing your sight, do you keep your sight loss a secret or shout about it? Well RNIB Connect Radio's Toby Davey has just caught up with one such artist, Angela Charles, who is telling the world about coming out as a Visually Impaired Artist in a new Arts Council funded exhibition ‘What Are You Looking At?' and an accompanying documentary film. The launch of the film and the press view of the exhibition takes place on World Sight Day, Thursday 14 October 2021 at OSR Projects, Church Street, West Coker, Somerset, BA22 9BD Since graduating from Goldsmiths in 1989, Angela Charles (also known as Angela Blackwell) has had parallel careers as an award winning Curator and Visual Artist. From regular shows in St Ives to commissions for a high profile exhibition in Milan, Angela has achieved commercial success with her paintings drawn from her memories of place. During the summer of 2021 Angela has been using OSR Projects as a studio in advance of the exhibition this Autumn. A brighter palette and bolder mark making are features of a new series of paintings directly relating to previous work in style and form. These new works look at the elements of everyday life that disable her, her life growing up in a seaside town and her new challenges of coming out as a blind painter. Angela's exhibition ‘What Are You Looking At?' runs at OSR Projects, West Coker, Somerset from Thursday to Sunday until 7 November and more details about the exhibition can be found on the OSR Projects website - https://osrprojects.co.uk And to find out more about Angela and her work do visit her website - http://www.angelacharles.com (Image shows Angela with her guide dog stood in front of a brick building with large white painted wooden doors and a blue notice board across the middle with 'What Are You Looking At?' written in white on a separate thin blue panel above)

The story of modern artist's rebellions and innovations is a history of artistic revolution. 'What Are You Looking At?' reviews more than 150-years of creative development from the Impressionism of the 1860s to the art of today. The book covers representative works by nearly a hundred artists and explaining the ins and outs of more than 30 modern art movements. In addition, the book addresses some of the common confusions around modern art. For example: Why is it not always easy to understand modern art? Why is painting no longer the main form of art? And, what is the relationship between modern art and ordinary people like us?
HAPPY NEW YEAR! We are kicking off 2021 with Episode 50 that presents a crucial question: “WHAT ARE YOU LOOKING AT?” How do you look at the past, how do you look at the present, and how do you look at the future? What do you see? What are you focused on? What are you looking at? In this episode we take a moment to step back and realistically look at ourselves, our words, our captions, our resolutions, and understand that they are nothing more than just words without the proper thought and perspective behind them. How we see ourselves, how we see each other, and how we see the world around us are just some of what is discussed in this episode. Do you think you're an adult? Then let's have an adult conversation.I look forward to hearing from you after you've listened. Please take the time to continue the conversation in the comments of this episode's post on my personal IG. Your thoughts and perspectives are important, so let's continue the conversation there.

Tamar Merin is a writer, critic, and literary scholar. In her story “What Are You Looking At?”, the prosaic act of a mother and son going for ice cream becomes an exploration of the anxiety of immigration, the shock of living in a new land. Text: “What are you Looking At?” by Tamar Merin. Translated by Ari Leiberman.
What Are You Looking At? In these days of noise and distractions and distress all around, what are the signs pointing to?"Because There Is A War For Your Soul" Nothing boring or too political or super spiritual. Just probably some of the most radical and useful information you will find on radio. Join us live Tuesdays at 10am CST or catch us on the run.Hosted by Marjorie Cole, founder of Life Recovery, Inc., and author of “Taking the Devil to Court” with Jarry Cole, Pastor of True Light Church as the featured guest pastor and roving co-host.
We're digging deep this week into all of your burning questions.What does it take to craft gigantic puppets for Broadway? Does art history as we know it need a drastic makeover? And how exactly did a small record label in Vancouver, Wash. come across new music from Prince that has them in a battle with the Purple One's estate?Local Puppet Legend Michael Curry Conjures the Myth of Persephone with the Oregon Symphony - 1:24This weekend, the Oregon Symphony will wade into the wonderful world of puppets with a production of "Persephone" (May 13–15). For the first time, it’s collaborating with Michael Curry, the puppet master behind the animals in the Broadway production of "The Lion King," as well as Olympic opening ceremonies and other massive events. OPB's Molly Solomon takes us to Curry’s massive warehouse in Scappoose, Oregon to see his magical operations.Shaking Up The Classics at Oregon Shakespeare Festival - 3:30For our money, the hottest ticket at the Oregon Shakespeare Festival this spring is a show with an ancient story: “Mojada: A Medea in Los Angeles,” which runs through July 6. It’s a retelling of Euripides’ classic tale of a princess witch who’s followed her lover into exile in a foreign land. When he rejects her, she kills her own children in an act of vengeance. Adapted by the MacArthur-winning playwright Luis Alfaro, “Mojada” reforms the classic Greek tale into a story about Mexican immigrants trying to make it in Los Angeles.World Premiered Play Asks: Is the American Dream All It's Cracked Up to Be? - 10:21Seattle-based playwright Yussef El Guindi scandalized Portland, in a good way, with the world premiere of his play “Threesome” at Portland Center Stage in 2015. It’s about a Muslim couple’s failed attempt to invite a non-Muslim into their bed, but there’s a lot more going on in the show than pillow talk. El Guindi returns to the dynamics of a troubled immigrant couple with his new play, “The Talented Ones,” which is getting its world premiere at Portland’s Artists Repertory Theater through May 21. How Did Vancouver Become the Center of a Fight over Prince's Music? - 17:42Last month, when a Minnesota judge halted the release of an album featuring six previously unreleased songs from the late artist Prince, something caught our eye. The record label in the middle of the legal battle was a largely unknown company from Vancouver, Washington called Rogue Music Alliance. Before a federal judge halted its release, the EP, “Deliverance,” was the top selling pre-order on iTunes, with the single “Deliverance” hitting the No. 1 rock single spot.The Fallen Heroes of Comic Book Writer Chris Sebela - 23:16Chris Sebela’s comic “Heartthrob” is the furthest thing from a romance novel. With art by Robert Wilson, “Heartthrob” tells the story of a woman who gets a heart transplant that not only saves her life, but throws her into a chaotic affair with the man who originally housed the heart — or at least his specter. Turns out he was a criminal and wants her to carry on some unfinished heists. Turns out, Sebela has a thing for heroes with flaws, from the disgraced snowboard at the center of his hit graphic novel “High Crimes,” to the out-of-work movie monsters in "Screamland."opbmusic Session with Kelli Schaefer - 32:27Portland songwriter Kelli Schaefer crafts ghostly rock songs that explore themes of capitalism and mortality — songs that're spurred by a big, dark voice that’s drawn comparisons to PJ Harvey. Her new album, “No Identity,” is a loosely-organized concept album following a family’s run-ins with tragedy and the mundane. Schaefer will perform at Mississippi Studios on May 16. Want a taste? Check out videos of her opbmusic session. Why Everything You Need to Know You Did NOT Learn in Art History - 39:10A little while ago, we had on the writer, artist, and art activist Jennifer Rabin to talk about two projects she's behind: Artists Resist and Art Passport PDX. But the original reason we contacted her was to talk about an article she wrote for "Willamette Week" about the "Constructing Identities" exhibition at the Portland Art Museum. She wrote that her education in art history left her woefully unprepared to write about a show by African-American artists — or any underrepresented artist for that matter. So for our latest installment in our "What Are You Looking At?" series, we invited her to walk through the show with us.
Spring Break is upon us, and we are embarking on an adventure. We will be slaying beasts in the fantastical world of novelist Laini Taylor (that have surprising real world parallels), exploring the haunted house of YouTube superstar Sunshine Girl, traveling to SXSW to discover infectious new bands, and trekking to the grand opening of the Portland Japanese Garden.The Portland Japanese Garden Unveils World-Class Expansion - 1:23The Portland Japanese Garden was already considered one of the best in the world, but now it stands to become a cultural institution on a whole other level. After undergoing more than seven years of planning and months of construction, the garden is opening its new expansion and Cultural Village on Apr. 2.The Eugene Ballet And Composer Kenji Bunch Find Beauty In The Snow Queen - 6:57On Apr. 8–9, the Eugene Ballet Company will premieres a work years in the making: a new adaptation of Hans Christian Andersen’s "The Snow Queen," with a modern score by Portland-based composer Kenji Bunch. You might recognize the tale: it was the inspiration for Disney's "Frozen," and Bunch gives it a cinematic treatment.Slaying Demons (And Cliches) With Best-Selling YA Author Laini Taylor - 13:02Portland author Laini Taylor dreams the types of dreams that you want to get lost in — majestic desert journeys to forgotten cities, heroes with dark secrets, tender first kisses between godesses and men — and you're not alone. Her early collaboration with her husband, the illustrator Jim Di Bartolo, "Lips Touch," was a finalist for the National Book Award, and her "Daughter of Smoke and Bone" trilogy is an international best seller.This week, she released the first book in her newest series, "Strange the Dreamer," about an orphaned young librarian who also has big dreams. She'll talk about it with Sara Grundell of the YA website Novel Novice at Powell's at Cedar Hills Crossing on Apr. 6. Oregon's Biggest YouTube Sensation Is A Girl, Her Mom, And A Household of Ghosts - 23:04In 2010, Oregon actor Paige McKenzie anonymously released a series of videos on YouTube called "The Haunting of Sunshine Girl." They were DIY, Blair Witch-style episodes following a charismatic 16-year-old who wanted to prove the existence of ghosts to her mom. With no promotion whatsoever, the series blew up and now has had more than 280 million views, making Sunshine Girl one of the most successful YouTube stars in the country.Since then, McKenzie inked a deal with the Weinstein Company for three books and a TV show. The first two books have sold more than 200,000 copies, and the third, "The Sacrifice of Sunshine Girl," comes out Apr. 4. She will read and sign at Powell's at Cedar Hills Crossing on Apr. 5 and Voodoo Donuts Too on Apr. 13.Blitzen Trapper Spins Their Narrative Rock Into A Sci-Fi Rock Opera - 32:51Blitzen Trapper is one of the tightest rock bands in Portland, and now the members have partnered with Portland Center Stage to transform their story-rich songs into an evening length musical event. Called "Wild and Reckless," they’re billing it as a "futuristic vision of Portland's past.” As part of our What Are You Looking At series, we went to opening night and discovered a production overflowing with expert musicianship but coming up short on plot. opbmusic's SXSW Recap: Bands We Can't Get Out Of Our Heads & An Exclusive Session with Conor Oberst - 41:17The opbmusic staff saw some 150 bands in four-days at Austin's monster music festival, South by Southwest, and music director Jerad Walker stops by to share some of his favorites, including A Giant Dog, Jay Som, and Portland folkster Johanna Warren.In a lucky turn of events, they were able to sit down with indie royalty Conor Oberst from the folk band Bright Eyes. Oberst spoke with Jerad Walker about the process for his new album "Salutations" and his work with supergroup Monsters of Folk.
Jesus made a reference in the Gospel of John to how the Son of Man will be lifted up like Moses lifted the snake up in the wilderness. This week we continued our series on Healing by looking at this story in the Old Testament and how Jesus made the connection to the cross.

What Are You Looking At 7/24/16 by Reagan Sommers
07.10.16 Pastor Sherman helps take a look at raw emotions that people are experiencing due to several unfortunate events in our society over the last couple of weeks. Great truth and hope is in this message entitled "What Are You Looking At?" Galatians 3:26, 28
Sustaining an art career can be a minefield of administration and opportunities. How do you know what to do? What does professional development mean? Where do you do it? What Are You Looking At host Theia Connell talks to Wendy Morrow, Kylie Johnson, Liam James and Nadege Philippe-Janon to get some answers to these questions.
In honor of Mothers everywhere, we have several stories about new projects being brought into the world this week: a film project that's all about learning from the past, the Eugene Symphony's three ambitious new compositions, and a play that takes us across the boarder. Plus, Charles Bradley sings tribute to his own mom.Into the Beautiful NorthAn adaptation of Luis Alberto Urrea’s bestselling novel “Into the Beautiful North” premieres at Milagro Theatre this week. The story follows three women from a small town in Mexico—a town with a total male population of zero. Immigration to the US has lured their community's men away, but our heroines, spurred on by the classic western flick “The Magnificent Seven,” are determined to bring back at least half a dozen of the good ones.Rough Waters for Arts Central - 4:50For twenty years, the Bend-based nonprofit Arts Central has brought arts education to central Oregon under the leadership of executive director Cate O’Hagan. Last month, though, O’Hagan quit after coming into conflict with the organization’s board over her role and the nonprofit's office space. We look at what this could mean for the region.Changes, from Charles Bradley - 8:47NPR called Charles Bradley’s “the most unlikely soul career of the millennium,” and the singer’s new album, “Changes,” reflects this and more. Bradley talks with NPR's David Greene about the album's unlikely starting place in a Black Sabbath cover, before opening up about how deeply the album is influenced by the loss of his mother. Bradley plays the Crystal Ballroom on May 19.The Portland Queer Documentary Film Festival Is One of a Kind - 16:33Every year, the Portland Queer Documentary Film Festival, or QDoc for short, brings films (and often their makers) from around the world to Portland, about subjects ranging from gay athletes to New Zealand's favorite yodeling lesbian twins. It's the only such festival in the world, and this year it celebrates its 10th year May 19–22 at the Hollywood Theater. The co-founder David Weissman, a filmmaker best known for his docs "The Cockettes" and "We Were Here," stops by to talk about the festival and his newest project, "Conversations with Gay Elders."Eugene Symphony's Big 5-0 - 23:30The Eugene Symphony has a reputation for programming challenging works, but the symphony is pushing itself to a new level for its 50th anniversary with three new commissions by world class composers. Hear Oregon composer Robert Kyr's “Dawning of the World (Piano Concerto No. 1)” during the season finale on May 12.Return to Neverland with Peter and the Starcatcher - 30:45What does it take to recapture the wonder of being a kid? Turns out, the Tony-winning musical "Peter and the Starcatcher," which bills itself as a grown-ups' prequel to Peter Pan. We ask Broadway veteran Rodney Hicks to see the Portland Playhouse's local premiere for the next stop in our “What Are You Looking At?” series, and are rewarded with a night of uproarious laughs and unbridled imagination, playing through May 29.Mohsin Hamed - 38:58Pakistani and British author Mohsin Hamed reliably produces books with painfully clever titles and wisely-portioned doses of experimentation. His novels “The Reluctant Fundamentalist" and "How to Get Filthy Rich in Rising Asia,” were short listed for the Man Booker Prize and made the New York Times Best Seller list, respectively. “Discontent and Its Civilizations,” a collection of essays, came out last year and his newest novel, “Exit West,” is slated for release in 2017. Hamed visited Portland recently and found time to sit down with Think Out Loud’s Dave Miller. It's always good to go out with a bang, so listen in for that conversation at the end of the show.
Ever wondered how Peter Pan came to be the boy who never grew up? Or how he and Captain Hook came to be arch nemeses?We might never know the real reason (at least according to author J.M. Barrie), but the authors Dave Barry and Ridley Pearson sure dreamed up a fabulous possibility in the book “Peter and the Starcatcher.” Billed as a "grown-up's prequel," it was adapted for the stage by Rick Elice and ultimately won five Tonys on Broadway in 2012.Now the musical is having its local premiere at Portland Playhouse, through May 29. We thought, who better to see it with than actor Rodney Hicks for the next stop in our “What Are You Looking At?” series. Hicks has starred in a number of Broadway productions, including the original production of Rent. He also happens to have seen the Off-Broadway and Broadway productions of “Peter and the Starcatcher.” Read the full story: http://www.opb.org/artsandlife/article/peter-starcatcher-portland-playhouse
Holly Andres is not just one of the best working photographers in Portland — she's also one of the busiest. Her work has appeared in Vanity Fair, the New York Times, Elle Magazine, and has shown her work nationally and internationally. She's won strong reviews for her evocatively-staged photos, capturing women and girls on the edge of transformation. Her series, “Holly Andres: The Fallen Fawn” is on view through May 28th at Charles Hartman Fine Art in Portland. We stopped by with Tricia Hoffman, the executive Director of Newspace Center for Photography for the latest installment of our series, “What Are You Looking At?”The exhibition begins with a striking night-time image of a car, with a dear in its headlights. It's an ambiguous situation: is the driver ready to run the deer down, or paused to marvel? That's the kind of precipice moment Andres revels in.
This week on State of Wonder, Maurice Sendak goes to the opera, retro-tinged indie pop with Radiation City, darkness and light with photographer Holly Andres, and Snohetta's big plans for Portland's James Beard Market and Willamette Falls, and the Portland Ballet.Mauric Sendak Goes to the Opera - 0:00Maurice Sendak is beloved for his emotionally stormy and distinctive children’s books like "Where the Wild Things Are" and "In the Night Kitchen," but the Portland Opera is giving us a chance to appreciate his lesser-known work — as a passionate fan of and set designer for opera. The Portland Opera's general director, Christopher Mattaliano, worked with Sendak on his first opera, "The Magic Flute," in 1981 and is restaging it May 6-14 for the first time in over a decade. Mattaliano tells us about his friendship with Sendak and how the great artist simply loved opera.Radiation City - 7:30Local indie-pop band Radiation City's lineup was famous for featuring two couples...and infamous for its in-fighting. So when co-founders Lizzy Ellison and Cameron Spies finally split, it was an open question: could the show go on? Their new album, Synesthetica, charts calamity and a path out of it, adding a new level of polish and maturity to the band's signature take on retro-pop. Holly Andres - 15:08Photographer Holly Andres — who has shot for "Vanity Fair," the "New York Times," and other A-list clients — captures scenes packed with emotion, intrigue, and mystery. She has a show on view at Charles Hartman Fine Art in Portland called “The Fallen Fawn” (through May 28) about two young girls who discover an unexpected treasure. We dive into it with Tricia Hoffman, executive director of The Newspace Gallery (which currently has a show up featuring photography shot inside prisons), for another review in our "What Are You Looking At?" series.Snøhetta - 21:00Columnist-in-residence Randy Gragg takes us into the world of Snøhetta, an internationally-renowned architecture firm (think Times Square, the new SF Museum of Modern Art, and the Library of Alexandria) about to embark on two projects in Oregon: the James Beard Public Market in Portland, and the Willamette Falls Riverwalk in Oregon City. The first ever U.S. retrospective of the firm's work, "Snøhetta: People, Process, Projects," is on-view at the AIA Center for Architecture through June 30.The Portland Ballet - 31:10Oregon Art Beat recently profiled some big changes at the Portland Ballet, a ballet school in Hillsdale that seeks to bridge the gap between Balanchine and Queen (yes, as in "Bohemian Rhapsody") in their quest to train professional dancers. Their spring concert (May 6–7) features the Portland premiere of Trey McIntyre's Queen-fueled ballet, "Mercury Half-Life," alongside Balanchine and a world premiere from Portland's own Gregg Bielemeier.
Artists Repertory Theatre production of Jackie Sibblies Drury's "We Are Proud to Present a Presentation About the Herero of Namibia, Formerly Known as South West Africa, From the German Sudwestafrika, Between the Years 1884-1915" is a nervy farce-meets-race riot.The play follows a troupe of actors — half black, half white — as they struggle to prepare for a presentation about the first genocide of the 20th century, the extermination of the Herero people of Namibia by German soldiers. However, rehearsals devolve and the group is nudged over the edge by simmering questions about race, authenticity, and truth. As part of our “What Are You Looking At?” series, State of Wonder sent producer Aaron Scott to see and discuss the play with Kimberly Howard, program officer at the PGE Foundation and former head of the Oregon Cultural Trust and the Interstate Firehouse Cultural Center.Read the full story: http://www.opb.org/artsandlife/article/artists-rep-we-are-proud-to-present
[image: 20160310_stupidbird_pw,right,300x390,56e209465487d8005522ce05]Portland is no stranger to the works of Eugene-born playwright Aaron Posner. Portland Center Stage and Artist Repertory Theater have staged his adaptations "Sometimes a Great Notion," "The Chosen" and three short stories by Kurt Vonnegut. Now, Portland Center Stage is producing the first of what he calls his irreverent adaptations: "Stupid F**king Bird," which runs through March 27.A play on Chekhov's "The Seagull," the fowl-named play was originally developed at Washington D.C.'s Woolly Mammoth Theater. Producer Aaron Scott and Portland Monthly arts editor, Fiona McCann, went to see the show as part of State Of Wonder's "What Are You Looking At?" series. What follows are some highlights from their conversation.Read the full story: http://www.opb.org/artsandlife/article/stupid-f-ing-bird
We have binders full of stuff for you today. As it turns out, many are full of women.Qcut And The Quest For Jeans That Fit -A new Oregon start-up is hoping to provide relief from long, torturous hours of finding jeans that fit. Owner Crystal Beasley, a former Mozilla software developer, has developed an algorithm that pairs users with the right blue jeans out of a selection of some 300 different fits. We learn about some of the potential behind the new technology.PDX Women In Tech -A recent report from SmartAsset.com lists the top towns for women in tech. Of 58 American cities, Portland placed dead last. Megan Bigelow of Jama Software, Kaset Tonsfeldt of Young Lions Collective, Amanda Brooks of 24 Seven Inc. help us imagine what a truthful tech job posting would sound like. Hint: it's not pretty (despite it paying to be pretty).The Environmental Photojournalism Of Gary Braasch -Environmentalist Gary Braasch died this week while documenting coral bleaching on Australia's Great Barrier Reef. OPB News' Kate Davidson spoke with Allison Jones, a senior fellow with the International League of Conservation Photographers who says Braasch has been a huge influence on her work, about Braasch's life and legacy.What Are You Looking At: Stupid F**king Bird -Portland theaters have staged a number of Eugene-born playwright Aaron Posner's more traditional adaptations. Now Portland Center Stage is producing the first of what he calls his irreverent adaptations: "Stupid F**king Bird." A play on Chekhov’s "The Seagull," it was developed at Washington, DC’s Woolly Mammoth Theatre to great acclaim and featured a number of PCS regulars, who reprise their roles here. Producer Aaron Scott invited "Portland Monthly" arts editor Fiona McCann to a showing as part of our "What Are You Looking At?" series.The Soul-Hop of Dirty Revival -Dirty Revival brought their seven piece down to the OPB studios to play some funky, energetic tracks off their 2015 self-titled album. The group sat down with host April Baer to talk touring, song reworks, and the social consciousness that permeates their music. You can watch videos of their performance here.Portland Candidates: Bim Ditson & Jim Lee -We continue our coverage of Portland candidates and the arts with two unique perspectives. Mayoral candidate Bim Ditson, a local music promoter and drummer for indie rock band And And And, talks with us about how to make a living with art. Our other guest is Jim Lee, who is running for city council Position 4, a seat currently held by Steve Novick. Lee prioritizes revitalizing Portland's venues and speaks with us about why he feels it's such an important move.Wendy Red Star -Portland artist Wendy Red Star is blowing up. In the last 18 months, she has had her work featured across the country, including at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City, and at the Portland Art Museum twice. Oregon Art Beat's Katrina Sarson followed Red Star over that time and gives us the download on what makes the multidisciplinary artist so unique. Watch the Oregon Art Beat piece on Red Star here.Cristina Henriquez And "The Book of Unknown Americans" -Each year the Multnomah County Library chooses one novel to feature as part of their Everybody Reads series with the idea that the books might spur conversation throughout the community. This year's pick is The Book of Unknown Americans by author Cristina Henriquez. We share an excerpt of Think Our Loud's Dave Miller speaking with Henriquez in front of an audience at Literary Arts last week. You can hear the full interview here.
Today on the show: creativity and geography. Salem Chamber Orchestra Files For BankruptcyLast month, the Salem Chamber Orchestra board announced the season would be cancelled because of financial difficulties. Now it has informed its musicians it will also file for bankruptcy.Frank Almond’s Famous StradivariusViolinist and concertmaster Frank Almond, the man behind the best-selling CD “A Violin’s Life,” will perform on Tuesday in Corvallis at Oregon State University and on Friday in Bend as part of the High Desert Chamber Music’s Spotlight Series.The real star of the show, though, is Almond’s famous, 300-year-old Lipinski Stradivarius. That Almond is playing it at all is a small miracle: a couple of winters ago, thieves tased him and ran off with the instrument, which is valued at $5 million to $6 million.Paige Powell’s Magnificent Ride Through New York CityWhen Portland native Paige Powell worked at “Interview” magazine in New York City in the 80s, she traveled in rarified circles. There were lunches with Bianca Jagger, dinners with David Bowie, late nights with Madonna, and an endless parade of parties with Andy Warhol. And she documented it all with her camera.When Powell moved back to Oregon, she put all the photos and videos in boxes and didn’t look at them for years. Now she’s showing them for the first time in a multimedia installation at the Portland Art Museum called “The Ride.” She gave producer Aaron Scott a tour.Marc Acito’s Broadway Breakthrough, Starring George TakeiThe life of the “Star Trek” actor-turned-civil rights activist is inspiring a new musical on Broadway. “Allegiance” tells the story of George Takei and his family, who were sent to internment camps by the U.S. government during World War II. The New York “Observer” called “Allegiance” “fresh,” “original,” and “passionate.” And the play’s co-writer happens to be someone who worked in Portland for 20 years before returning to New York and Broadway: Marc Acito. We caught up with Acito between the play’s rehearsals.Liminal Wants To Offend You Liminal Performance Group has a reputation for brassy, experimental, tech-rich theater productions, so we were intrigued when they announced that they were going to re-vamp a seminal anti-theatre work called “Offending the Audience” for “a modern age of pan-surveillance and fractured media self-reflections.”What happens when you slap a pandemonium of surveillance and interactive technology, plus nude interpretive dances, onto the 50 year-old play by Peter Handke? For our ongoing series “What Are You Looking At,” we invited James Engberg and Eric Kilgore to see the show. You might know them from a theater podcast and XRAY-FM show they hosted called “5 Useless Degrees & A Bottle of Scotch.”“Offending the Audience" runs through Nov. 22 at Action/Adventure Theater.Amazon Goes Old School With Brick And MortarLast week, while we were whooping it up at Wordstock, book lovers in Seattle were treated to the latest high-tech, new-fangled idea in e-commerce, cooked up by Amazon: the opening of a store. With books.From Seattle’s KUOW, Kate Walters reports on the retail giant's first permanent brick and mortar retail shop in Seattle. Then we call up Knute Berger, a writer for the blog “Crosscut” and “Seattle Magazine,” who wrote about the opening.Jazz Composer Darrell Grant's Oregon Sojourn In 2012, pianist, composer and Portland State University professor Darrell Grant started work on a song cycle called “The Territory,” about his relationship with Oregon, its history, and its geography. “The Territory” premiered last January in New York, and it’s now being released on PJCE Records. Grant stopped by KMHD Jazz Radio this week to talk with Matt Fleeger about the genesis of the project in advance of a record release concert on Nov. 14 at the First Unitarian Church.
This week: artists get kicked out of Towne Storage, Natasha Kmeto gets vocal, bonsai gets a high design update, vampires get all touristy and so much more.Hundreds Of Artists Lose Their Studios At Towne Storage - 5:08Towne Storage has occupied a special place in the Central Eastside arts scene, housing hundreds of artists. But now, Towne Storage’s managers have informed everyone they need to be out by November; the building has been sold. Q&A: Commission Nick Fish On Artists' Space - 5:25Portland City Commissioner Nick Fish told us he definitely has some concerns about how development in the Central Eastside is playing out.The New American Bonsai + The Artisan's Cup - 10:54When most Americans think of bonsai — the art of pruning and shaping small trees — they probably think of an ancient gardening craft practiced by lovers of Japanese culture. Ryan Neil thinks it’s anything but. With a story ripped from the movie “The Karate Kid,” he has created Bonsai Mirai, a leading international school in the hills outside Portland. And he’s partnered with cutting-edge architects and designers in an effort to make bonsai cool for a new generation.Now they’re staging an ambitious exhibition of juried bonsai from around the country called The Artisan's Cup at the Portland Art Museum from Sept 25–27. Their goal: to elevate bonsai into a contemporary art form worthy of, well, museums.What Are You Looking At: Wendy Red Star on "Edward Curtis: Shadow Catcher" - 18:36This fall, the Bend arts space Atelier 6000 is showing photographs by Edward Curtis in “Edward Curtis: Shadow Catcher.” At the turn of the 20th century, Curtis vowed to record, with his camera, the way Indian people lived. We sent Portland artist Wendy Red Star to check it out for an installment of our series “What Are You Looking At.” New Film Profiles Afghan Photographers - 26:30When the Taliban ruled Afghanistan, from 1996 to 2001, photography was illegal. Since then, photojournalists have taken cautious steps toward a free press. Local filmmaker Mo Scarpelli went to Afghanistan to see what life is like behind the lens for her new documentary “Frame by Frame,” which follows the lives of four Afghani photgraphers. You can see it at Vancouver's Kiggins Theater on Sept. 21 at 7:30pm.opbmusic session: Natasha Kmeto - 34:15Portland-based electronic music artist Natasha Kmeto's record from a couple of years ago, “Crisis,” emphasized mood and sound. But her new one record, “Inevitable,” is all about soul. Her robust vocals dominate the mix, and she’s singing personal lyrics that are more raw and confident than ever. Tilikum Crossing - 41:09You’re a person, right? Well, your bridge is ready for you. Tilikum Crossing, literally, “the Bridge of the People,” is carrying its first walkers, bikers and public transit riders between Portland’s South Waterfront and East Side. It’s Bridgetown’s first new bridge over the Willamette River in four decades. Think Out Loud’s Dave Miller spoke with the bridge’s architect, Don McDonald. Ten Years After "Twilight" Dawned, Forks Remains A Mecca For Vampire Fan - 45:20Last weekend, vampires were afoot in a small town on Washington’s Olympic Peninsula. Fans of the bestselling teen vampire romance series flooded into the town of Forks from all over the country to mark the 10th anniversary of the publication of the first book in the Twilight Saga. Correspondent Tom Banse reports on the love story that injected new blood into the economy of a once hobbled logging town.
