    Morag Wehrle on Not Selling Yourself Short, Writing, Post-Partum Depression, and Blending History with Memoir

    For their last interview of the season, Alex and Karen are joined by writer Morag Wehrle to talk all about the non-fiction memoir she is currently working on that centres around postpartum depression - connecting her own experience with that of a woman from the late 19th century who was institutionalized for the same condition. They discuss how the project came to be and the serendipitous nature of it; from the circumstances that led to Morag working on the book to her incredibly varied backlog of careers and passions that came together to aid in her research. Morag gives so much insight into her creativity and together they cover so many aspects of the creative practice, like creative biases and continuing to learn and explore in adulthood. … Follow Morag @morag.tells.stories … Follow us on instagram @vicarious.pod Have any questions or topics you want to hear us discuss?

    Em Postl and Thomas Hoeller on Streams, Improvisation, and Working with Poetry

    Alex and Karen chat with musicians Em Postl and Thomas Hoeller about Streams Poetry Project, their music collaboration that transforms poetry through vocals and guitar. They give an in-depth look into the natural evolution of this project over the last 8 years, from the organic formation of the project that began with some improvisation over a book of poetry by Rumi, to their current focus of working with more local poets and getting their songs recorded. They examine their love of stream-of-consciousness style improvisation (which informed the name of the project); how they vibe off of one another; and how using intuition rather than intellectualizing their source material has allowed them to explore and give new life to works that they love.  … Follow Em @moonseedherbals Follow Thomas @thomasjhoeller Follow Streams @streamspoetryproject Check out their website www.streamspoetryproject.com … Follow us on instagram @vicarious.pod Have any questions or topics you want to hear us discuss?

    Francis Henson on Content vs. Intent, Big Feelings, and Effect of Language on Social Identity

    Alex and Karen are joined this week by musician, writer, teacher and certified fashionista (at least in Karen’s mind) Francis Henson! He brings with him a lot of great topics for them to dive into, like the idea of artistic identity as intent rather than content; our connection to music and art in adolescence; and music as a study of humanity. They explore Francis’ globetrotting childhood that began in The Philippines and brought him to Kazakhstan before ending up here in Vancouver, and talk about what effects that had on his understanding of himself and the world around him. And if that wasn’t enough, they also have a very impassioned discussion about fashion and the trends that they love to hate. … Follow Francis @francishenson and his groups @frankieandthejuicebox and @bigfuzzmusic check out his website francishenson.com for more info on his music projects. … Follow us on instagram @vicarious.pod Have any questions or topics you want to hear us discuss?

    Sam Dowdell and Keely Rammage-Scott on Project Vancity, the Grunt Work of Creativity and Working in Community

    Alex and Karen sit down with musicians Sam Dowdell (Emilyn) and Keely Rammage-Scott to talk about their work with The Project Vancity, a music initiative that works toward community building by bringing a variety of musicians in the Vancouver music scene together to create video series, shows, and other creative works. Sam and Keely share how they individually got involved with the project and how it’s evolved since they joined the team, and get into the nitty gritty of what it takes to run a registered non-profit that works with “creative people, not organized people”. They get into so many different aspects of the project, such as the challenges they face working with such a large roster of volunteers; why creating a safe space is at the forefront of the group’s mission; the aspects of the project that are most meaningful for them; and the importance of a vibe check when deciding on who to work with. … Follow Keely Rammage-Scott @keely_leah Follow Sam Dowdell/Emilyn @emilynmakesmusic @samisacoach Follow @theprojectvancity to see what projects and events they’ve got coming up next! … Follow us on instagram @vicarious.pod Have any questions or topics you want to hear us discuss?
