I like danceable music to get pumped up — or at least something I can jump up and down to. I really like Metric’s “Black Sheep,” though the intro is way too long, so I usually skip 30 seconds in. I actually like the actress who sang it in Scott Pilgrim’s voice better, so I often listen to the movie version online instead. Also my classmate from the Experimental Theatre Wing at NYU is the lead singer of this band Avan Lava, and they’re amazing. Their song “Feels Good” gets me pumped not just because I love the song, but also because it reminds me that I’ve worked with tons of people who are way more talented than I am —it taps into my competitive nature. “Don’t stop never stop.” It’s my mantra. Don’t get left behind. When I’m sad, I like to listen to songs from Young Jean Lee’s band Future Wife. Their song “Horrible Things” puts things into perspective. The lyrics are depressing and hilarious: “Who do you think you are to be immune from tragedy? What makes you so special that you should go unscathed?” But it’s set to this really cute music and her voice is so sweet. All the songs are like that. “I’m Gonna Die” is also really great. I like to play cutesy sad music and just lie there and wallow, if time permits. Do you “treat yourself” to anything special after a show closes? Well, I think the Olympus Spa or “naked spa” in Lynnwood will be my new treat. A friend introduced me to it last October, and I’m pretty smitten. They have a Korean restaurant inside the spa! How am I supposed to resist going to that place? Other than that, I pretty much like to celebrate all night after closing then lock myself in the house the day after, cooking and eating all day. Near the end of a run, I’m eating out more often than I like. So I spend this lazy day filling my body with hot, stinky, healthy Asian foods. I’ll stock up on everything fermented at Uwajimaya a couple days before, preparing for FEB 12 – MAY 17 this stinkfest. What’s the most useful thing anyone’s ever taught you about working in theatre?

    Square Feet 2013 Wrap-up Report Square Feet 2013 : a wrap-up report Published by the Seattle Office of Arts & Culture in January 2014 Edited by Matthew Richter Event Photographs by Jenny Crooks Introduction Square Feet 2013 convened on Monday, November 18, 2013 to explore the idea of Cultural Districts as a way to support the work of artists and arts and cultural organizations in Seattle. The event was produced by the Seattle Office of Arts & Culture and 4Culture. Centered on a keynote address from creative placemaking expert Anne Gadwa Nicodemus, the day also featured presentations from twenty local projects in motion, and a working session that resulted in a $10,000 investment by the Office of Arts & Culture in an idea generated by the day’s attendees. Over 150 people, representing arts organizations, independent artists, funders, developers, property owners, architectural designers and consultants, universities, and local government took part in the day, which was hosted by the Lee Center for the Arts, the Northwest Film Forum, and the Velocity Dance Center, all on 12th Avenue on Capitol Hill. A note about the text of this report: We solicited the presenters’ remarks following the event for inclusion in this report. Some of the speakers had prepared remarks, some spoke from general notes, and some spoke extemporaneously. We have attempted to present all of these in a format that makes sense to the reader. Matthew Richter, Cultural Space Liaison from the Office of Arts & Culture, started the day with some opening remarks: Welcome to Square Feet 2013, a day-long event produced by the Seattle Office of Arts & Culture and 4Culture.

Our city is already one of the most vibrant and creative in the nation. People are drawn to Seattle’s thriving arts and music scenes and the rich diver- sity of its communities. Businesses are attracted to Seattle because we are an international cultural hub. We understand both the real human value of art and its economic potential. Here in Seattle, we make the arts a priority. Last year, the City invested almost $2.5 million in the arts. We funded more than 300 different arts and cultural organizations and artists that reached over 1.5 million people. This year our support for the arts is growing. With support from City Council, we have added $150,000 for our Arts Mean Business program, which underwrites jobs for cultural organizations serving historically under-represented communities. And as part of the Creative Advantage program, we are investing $500,000 to bring arts education back to the classroom. These investments in the arts improve educational opportunity and achievement, foster economic development, and contrib- ute to our ongoing pursuits of social and economic justice. Thank you for supporting our city with your time, energy and vision.
