Studio8 - Uniting the Arts

Hi all.

We've changed the Interview forum a tad. Scroll down to "Specials" and find the Interview forum.

Title - Interviews
Description - Post interviews with your artistic colleagues - plus read Bill King's inside scoops!

Billectric will be moderating the forum and will continue to add his interviews with artists, writers, & musicians.

We have opened it up, now, to include your interviews, as well!

It would be very cool if the members here would select a person who they want to interview. Member-to-member interviews, perhaps. Or interview someone you know whose artistic story you think others would be interested in.

Do you have colleagues who are writers, artists, musicians, playwrights? Do you know anyone who works in the theater industry? Do you have a friend who is a professional dancer? Do you participate in an improv group and want to interview someone else from the group? The list is endless, really.

Think about this, OK? Take a moment to select someone who you would like to interview. You can promote their upcoming art show, their theater group, their website, their new CD. Whatever you'd like.

Let's interview each other and the artists whose work we respect. How did they get into their field of art? What is their history in the field? Where do they perform? What current projects are they working on? What is their vision for future artistic projects?

These are the types of questions which would work well for this idea. Feel free to link to the artist's website and add any other links which are pertinent to the interview.

How do you like this idea?

Any comments or suggestions are welcome!

Who would like to participate in this endeavor? Can you think of someone who you'd like to interview?

We could maybe start right here at Studio Eight. If a S8er selected another S8er to interview and all the interviews were posted, I think it would be fascinating!

What do you think?

I think this is wonderful


And so everyone knows;
I'm gonna be publishing (self-publishing, that is -- though I'm considering getting myself a d/b/a license and setting up my own publishing company) a poetry chapbook soon, called "The Hills Are Dreaming of Daffodils," and would love to promote it with an interview, hint hint. And hopefully by the summer I'll have my album finished.
Really, I just like to be interviewed regarding my artistic projects.
Actually, I'd trade someone an interview for an interview

wow that Markiemon iz happenin' mon, and how!!! His eclectic musica would do as well on Borneo as in Oklahoma, mon.
Martin, Wood and Modeskii would square well with the Sharpshooter, fer sure!!!

I did an interview of sortz with Panta Rhie, wazzername? Anemonae?
Could I post that?

and Marksnan, how about Bennie, who does music critiquez?

Mars - Sounds great! Why don't you select someone who you'd like to interview and contact them and ask them to reciprocate by interviewing you? Just an idea.

Jimbo - Excellent thread! Good start on an interview. Why don't you compile some of your questions and her answers, then write some more questions for Panta and send them to her so it could all be combined to create an interview? Just an idea.



thanks both, for your interest in this! I think it's going to be cool!

ok and then zman, and the world!!!!!

I sent Panta a PM with above info requesting!

thanks, jim - got it.
i'll happily answer your questions!

Jim, I love how you made Borneo sound like another planet :) That fills me with glee

wow that Markiemon iz happenin' mon, and how!!! His eclectic musica would do as well on Borneo as in Oklahoma, mon.
Martin, Wood and Modeskii would square well with the Sharpshooter, fer sure!!!

How did I do that?
I am always asking my self the very same question?
But you could be called a fusion of bogus pomp and southeast asia
borneo highlands gongs and rattles,
man,
like wild men of Borneo,
in the post head-shrinking era,
altho it became a lost art.....
head shrinking, I mean,
not like heavy metal,
a craft. Now my step-son
slacker may get it on with a band
perhaps, he can bring in fusion into any situation.
i gotta get back and dig them Borneo-rambling gong bluez, mon.

It was the way you said "on Borneo"
"On" was the key word

(I'm writing an interactive fiction that concerns the concept of Elsewheres, hanging about in a great void Nowhere, little pockets of reality -- they are not planets, but <i>worlds</i>, a subtle difference... every Somewhere is somewhere else's Elsewhere in Nowhere)

bogus pomp and southeast asia borneo highlands gongs and rattles, wonderful :)

Ok I see my accidental wordplay.....like Borneo is an island, but it sounds like a ship of fools, or another planet, a parallel plane....also my reference to "bogus pomp" not that I recall was not intended to be derisive(GUESS IT COULD ALSO APPLY TO LAURA BUSH CANCELLING HER INFAMOUS POETRY READING AT THE WART HOUSE!) but in fact was the name of a music series here in St Pete at the S Dali museum, avant guarde music.

There is a show online you might be interested on http://www.wmnf.org/programming/index.shtml community radio Tampa Bay called "Step Outside" avant guarde music, well now I am gonna have to get back to your website and listen again. I did pull down some words and read-listen along.....
Jeez you have youth and great creative energy!
I think on the program schedule it is the "experimental music" om Wed eve after the old jazz spot, 9 pm.
The guy who does the show is also the organizer of the "bogus pomp" music event. Ray Zilla.

I don't know if these are interviews as such, but mayby we could do them in looser format, like talking back and forth with spontaneous responses .....interactive, because we are on different worlds when we get flowing.

every Somewhere is somewhere else's Elsewhere in Nowhere)

ps ps::me an hester prynne
have the same birthday!

hey! great idea!
an Interview jam!
one interviewee and maybe a few interviewers - real time interview.

j

and how!

and how!

and, how?
we could pick a time
maybe when we have the Word Jam this weekend, we could veer off and do an interview - kinda strike while the iron's hot.

we could grab a likely looking prospect and interview em (while the words flow, who knows what will come out?)

!

I am thinking we could start with panta and also marksman!!!!
I will be working this Thursday, Friday, Saturday all long 12 hour ++ shifts with commute time as well, not conducive for me.

The underground stream is always flowing, tho, so why not set it up???
