    ahttakes: Nick LeBlanc | the Tomorrow I'll Be Dead interview

    Ahtcast's younger sibling Ahttakes makes its long-awaited return. This time with author and educator, longtime artistic collaborator, and previous guest: Nick LeBlanc! He's got two fresh and subtle and mysterious books to talk about. The first, a book of poetry titled Falling All Along, and the other... a brand new release of fables titled Tomorrow I'll Be Dead. Both works detail the universal and the specific,... the cautionary and the freeing. In this episode we find these collections sparking an in-depth conversation of possibilities of meaning, and the insight and intent of the author. Tune in for more.

    Mark Phelan Interview

    Words of the day: landscape. grief. color. curiosity. and music. Welcome to the Mark Phelan interview. Mark Phelan has a solo show up at the Co-Creative Center in New Bedford, Massachusetts... The exhibition runs from April 1st through May 31st 2025. With an opening reception on Saturday April 5th from 6-9pm. And additional receptions on Aha! night in both April and May. The Co-Creative Center is located at 137 Union Street in New Bedford, MA. I caught word about this show and thought it was a great time to dust off the ole podcast and talk with Mark about his work. I've been to his studio in the past, and saw his last solo show back in 2022 which was titled Thresholding... So I'm really looking forward to his new exhibition. In this interview Mark and I open the conversation talking music in the studio, in depth about the exhibition title, so look out for that... ...also part of our chat are places where certain sentiments and expressions land or don't land... Family also becomes part of the conversation. And to close, Mark shares 2 great nature-based poems by esteemed poets you're sure to recognize. Listen in for more! Thanks.     The artist's website: www.markphelan.art/      Thanks for listening!   (Original intro song by David T Miller and Phillip J. Mellen)
