Expanding the Field (PART 2): A Microbiologist and an Artist Talk Communication (with Charles Trae Mason III) Our Shared Field
-
- Visual Arts
How can communication between fields change the way they are communicated individually?
Multimedia artist Charles ‘Trae’ Mason III and microbiologist and immunologist Alexandra Soare talk with me about the relationship between art and science, and how both fields still have a long way to go in their ability to communicate outside of themselves. We also discuss the necessity of a good mentor, and acknowledge those who changed and expanded the ways they work.
On today's episode, Trae talks to me about all of the people who have made him who he is as an artist. We discuss the grief, family and love explored in his work, as well as, in his words, “the performative act of Blackness” for him and his body.
Music in this episode is by Emmanuel Ohemeng III and Perpetual Motion, a Philly jazz fusion group that combines elements of jazz, hip hop and rock, led by local award-winning trumpet player Emmanuel Ohemeng III.
