Looks like I found the organizer!

Oh dear, museum curator I must tell tell that have memories of a musical doll stage wit/ballerina spinning on the round music playing box ran by battery. A owner could change the clothing when the ballerina came and stopped at the back of the Box's Stage. I have seen nothing like the toy I owned as a little Girl that was a long time ago so, I have learned to like a puppetry figured biz.

This is about the coolest thing I’ve ever seen

I am always full of admiration for what you do, your beliefs, the passionate message of your stunning work and your determination to educate all of us about the devastation plastic has caused on our planet. The backstory irony of the Amazon piece was not lost on me. Thank you for sharing your process and fondness for the pieces you've created, despite the sad origins of where your materials have come from. Can't wait to see what's next. Bravo, Aurora.

Can you help me find a Mail Art group I can participate in? As a stamp carver and Mail Art sender of thirty plus years, I would love to meet other artists that do this. Thank you. Please leave information here, as I don't have a working email address on Google.

Wow what a wonderful talk. It is a tragedy that I am the first to comment and it took me two years to find it.

Det var snällt att det lilla barnet fick välta.

The David Soyer anecdote is interesting in that, because he was part of a great string quartet, his dedication to specifically performative clarity, times four, came off as a kind of tyranny. One assumes that that’s especially true in the context of a talk on loose brushwork, the flow of experimentation, etc.-but for a performing musician, the word “amateur” is a very loaded one (George Bernard Shaw’s famous quip, “Hell is full of musical amateurs,” from “Man and Superman” illustrates the case vividly enough). You bring up an important divergence in fundamental aims between the creative and re-creative or interpretative arts. There’s a big difference between musical amateurs and professionals-and a huge gulf between amateurs and artists-that’s immediately and painfully obvious to audiences, no matter how uninitiated. Van Gough’s lousy drawing skills are viewed as unimportant, but playing out of tune is.

Wow his work is so powerful. Vulnerable and captivating. I love the idea of using a mask to reveal rather than to conceal. Can't wait to go to the next artist talk back !

The conundrum of being a separate entity and trying to be part of something . . .

thank you so much for sharing this information. gave me a better insight about Minor White and the impact he has had on the world. also thank you for the information on the online tour! it is very neat and helpful since I currently cannot travel to see this in person.

This whole discussion is so great to hear. I love felt as a medium being given more space for "serious" art, and all of these artists are really challenging that age old thing of "craftiness."

What a wonderful talk. Thanks for posting it. Pure inspiration.

Thank you. I'm going to read the two catalogs

Rest in peace, sweet Ali (Frizzy) . To my best friend in high school : We shall always have that special bond from ALL our amazing escapades . SO many great memories - thank you ! I am incredibly proud of all your amazing accomplishments in your short lifetime . Until we meet again ... Grr, snap, snarl ! Love and XXXOOO Gillsy (Frenchy) .

Thank you for this wonderful excursion into the photographic world of Minor White. Wonderful to learn about his gravitation towards interiority, and how this guided his vision. I have a deeper appreciation of his work after watching this interview. 🙏🏽

I was a student of sculptor Patricia de Gogorza Gahagan. She was married to painter James Gahagan. They were students of Hans Hofmann. She was the best teacher I ever had. My career as an art teacher was successful for my students because she took the time to teach me something about drawing. That moment in time has been what I tried to pass on to my students in public school, grades K to 12. I don't know if it made any of them devoted to art. I do know the FELT it as KINDNESS. I imagine, from this, that Hans Hofmann was that rare sort of teacher, for whom love and kindness and generosity of spirit is more important than a particular set of skills when it comes to

Awesome!

Thank-you, Wolf Kahn! I do believe you have just revived The Sleeping Artist Within me! I’ve been away much too long. The “Humanitarian Thing,” I was in to, did not work out Too Well and it was Not NEARLY as Much Fun! Your work has always resonated within me. Truth is like that!

Yeah!! Surprises in your mailbox! So inspiring to see so much variety. I’ve watched this video a couple of times and it frees up my mind to new possibilities.

I still don't understand how Mail Art works. Are only postcards artistically designed and sent or is it a matter of a postcard being designed by several recipients and then forwarded?

Thanks for doing this talk. It's just what I needed to rev up my creative interaction with other artists since I am now homebound.

my absolute dream is to attend Lois’s exhibition, if possible, Maine, of course. a trip to the usa have always sounded impossible and overwhelming for my small living soul, let alone the current conditions. but i’ll try, one day🤞 thank you, endless appreciation.

What a pleasant and interesting person to spend an hour with.

This helps me so much

Excellent presentation on NFT Art by Anne Spalter. I learned so much! Lots of great tips.

W. e.B Du Bois was a communist. The blacks are communist have a long history with the Communist Party USA since the 1920's.

wEB Du Bois was a Communist. Blacks have been communists since the 1920's Through the Communist Party USA. The civil right movement were used as a Trojan horse to Ouse Communistic ideology laws. Blacks love the communists party because it's a party of struggle who's thirst will never be satisfied

Futurism were FASCISTS. Dadaism and Surrealism were COMMUNISTS

What a delightful fellow!

Thank you for doing this.

Just got around to re watching this you two guys did a great job on your explanation of mail art and it was nice just to see you two at last in your flesh, it's nice to know that a few of my cards didn't get thrown out the door after they were received out of who knows where efforts at art end up, I am seeing mine in a few mansions in Southern California and also the Goodwill store, and every place in between, continued good luck on your wonderful hobby that you've turned into a vocation of fun and pleasure

Outstanding interview.

Thank you:) An exciting meeting.

Thank you!! ❤️❤️❤️

Thanks for posting this, I've enjoyed his paintings for years but this lecture really gave me a sense of him as an artist and enhanced my enjoyment of his work.

Great talk enjoyed I was a personal friend of Ray Johnson and life long mail-artist.

Cool!

Good morning Chuck - I still have those images we made in the Peterborough show.

Simple answer no

Such a brilliant setup! I love how different it is from the other BMAC setups :)

Two comments? That's it? This deserves way more attention. I always like the BMAC events. The blue/white at the beginning was cool conceptually. Too bad you didn't have an overhead camera. I loved the yellow/orange/red/maroon half circle wall with triangles in front of it. Beautiful. The trees in the green part kind of reminded me of the ones I recently did. So obviously I liked them! At about 3:49 I wish you could see the red/yellow square shape in the back a little more close up. It looked really interesting. Overall I liked it, but it's admittedly not my favorite of the BMAC setups. Kudos to the four of you though for putting this together even during a pandemic!

Great fall down

You are an incredible woman and your story is very inspiring. Thank you!

This is crazy cool. So Mr. Miller let the vehicles and the pedestrians trigger the different parts, but my question is, how did he arrive at what notes or rhythms those parts would be in and of themselves? For example [for the sake of example, the notes, instruments, etc., are just chosen at random]: - A car zips across the screen - why do we hear Eb6 as opposed to say, A#4? - Why is one pedestrian accompanied by a goofy melody on a saxophone but another pedestrian is accompanied by music in a different mood? - Is that more the composer's artistic interpretation of how the subject is making them feel at the moment of composition, or were there other predetermined rules for these passages? Also, is the music colored by the weather in the different scenes? I'm fascinated by this composition style, and would love to hear more details.
