    Atlanta's Sprawl! at the High Museum

    The High Museum's Wieland Family Curator Michael Rooks discusses the current Sprawl! show and two of its contributors, David Baerwalde and Ashley Anderson. Baerwalde and Anderson, both Goat Farmers, talk about having their work added to the High Museum's permanent collection. -------// This summer, the High will present its second major exhibition featuring recently acquired works on paper by Georgia-based artists. A sequel to the successful 2013 exhibition Drawing Inside the Perimeter, which featured work by Atlanta-based artists, Sprawl! will include drawings by artists who live and work in Atlanta and other cities in the metro area and beyond, such as Athens, Columbus, Decatur, Lawrenceville and Smyrna. The drawings in the exhibition act as a roadmap exploring the broad diversity of artistic production and approaches to art-making in Georgia, and the featured works also demonstrate both the overlapping spheres of influence and divergent interests and priorities of the artists. Thanks to Michael Rooks for his time and help with this episode. Special thanks to Marci Tate of the High Museum for her help in coordinating. Music for this episode provided by the lovely people of Little Tybee and their album For Distant Viewing. Special thanks to Goat Farmer Brock Scott. http://www.littletybee.com Check out more work from Ashley Anderson - http://press-start-to-begin.tumblr.com David Baerwalde - http://dbaerwalde.wix.com/site

    Field Experiment - Mel Chin & Severn Eaton - Jam D Jam

    We spoke via Skype with Severn Eaton, half of the Jam D Jam duo. Jam D Jam is a response to a contemporary dilemma shared by all Atlantans, rush hour congestion throughout the city. This radio based interactive entertainment intervention will invite participants to use these moments to contribute to an ever-changing soundscape. Calling in from their vehicles, their unscripted words or noises of frustration, boredom, aggression or anxiety will be transformed into musical invention & looped back to the traffic, the public, the performers. EMC's will be working with a diverse set of Atlanta music makers and producers to collaborate in sampling these unpredictable recordings.
