Gillerman - Solo Show Proposal for El Cerrito ACC Gallery Space City Hall JoAnn (Jody) Gillerman - Solo Show Proposal for El Cerrito ACC Gallery Space City Hall SOLO SHOW PROPOSAL 2018 For The City of El Cerrito's Arts and Culture Commission, Gallery Space in the El Cerrito City Hall JoAnn (Jody) Gillerman 950 61st Street, Studio B, Oakland, CA 94608 Phone: (510) 654-2880 Email: [email protected] Website: http://www.joanngillerman.com ARTIST STATEMENT / THEME Artist and Professor JoAnn (Jody) Gillerman creates digital/media-based interdisciplinary work exploring the intersection of art, science, culture and technology. In a world moving toward extremes, where technology and paradigm shifts have potential to outstrip ethics, provocative creative art and science investigations can reach across boundaries, creating hybrids, collaborations and alliances increasingly more relevant as we become more ecologically aware and globally conscious. Her works combine electronic media, computers, sculptural elements, light and digital imagery to create (sometimes interactive) installations, video and images. Her works are in collections, and exhibited internationally in museums, science centers, galleries, video broadcast, Web and public venues. Inspired by passion and the temporal nature of natural phenomena, she travels the world producing works that capture change - recording events frequently related to total solar eclipses and active volcanic lava flows – universal, up-close, and personal. Social Practice works have explored bioethics, ecology, urban eco-literacy and environmental justice. Occasional cyber performances challenge boundaries of private and public space. Current works include immersive environments, virtual reality and BioArt combining live bioluminescent Dinoflagellates with technology. Professor: California College of the Arts, Oakland/SF, CA. Education: MFA/Chicago Art Institute, IL. BA/Duke University, NC THEME: In the Shadow of the Moon / NATURAL ELUSIVE sources of LIGHT / Art and Science Total Solar Eclipses are universal, specific, without geographical boundaries, and effective to place us in the cosmos! What ties these art works together are location and light, being in the shadow of the moon, in the path of totality, globally, culturally and environmentally. The unique and natural phenomenon - being in the moon’s shadow during total solar eclipse - is an extraordinary surreal event older than civilization, and one that will continue into the future. Works including visually dynamic images of active volcanic lava flows, bioluminescent single cell organisms, totalities of total Solar Eclipses around the world will be experienced through varied media and cultures. 1 JoAnn (Jody) Gillerman - Solo Show Proposal for El Cerrito ACC Gallery Space City Hall Solo Show. Number of works: 20-30 - varied sizes (most framed), a few larger works (not framed) ABOUT THE WORKS: Science and Art: Natural Elusive Light Sources on location during total solar eclipses TOTAL SOLAR ECLIPSES/SUN: Having recorded (video/photography)11 total solar eclipses around the world on 6 continents, these art works represent varied locations and cultures that have been in the shadow of the Moon during a total solar eclipse. Works reflect natural landscapes, surreal light during an eclipsing sun, the corona visible only during totality within a long but narrow path, local indigenous cultures, eclipse folklore/mythologies, and geological phenomena. Specific locations include: Hawaii, Bolivia, India, Venezuela, Turkey, Costa Rica, Libya, Siberia, Nevada/USA, Idaho/USA. BIOLUMINESCENCE: In Costa Rica for an annular solar eclipse, and while video recording a Ridley Sea Turtle laying 60 eggs on a remote beach, the ocean sparkled with Bioluminescence! Since then, live bio-cultures of Bioluminescent Algae that I grow in my studio provide source material and inspiration for current works in varied forms and format. These “biopets” have their own Circadian Rhythm and thus the name of this series. These images, hand drawn on computer, are visually based on color, properties, and the cellular structure of these live bioluminescent dinoflagellates cultured in my studio. These art works are digital paintings of bioluminescent organisms - they are not photographs. (Some of these works contain photographic or video elements shot on location when noted.) ACTIVE LAVA FLOWS/HOT LAVA: A rare and wonderful opportunity to record a total solar eclipse accompanied by simultaneously flowing lava at the Oceans edge occurred on the Big Island of Hawaii. Totality of this eclipse crossed paths with Kilauea, one of the most active volcanoes in the world. “Volcanic Eclipse” is a series of works combining these two amazing natural phenomena that overlapped for a brief moment in time. 2 JoAnn (Jody) Gillerman - Solo Show Proposal for El Cerrito ACC Gallery Space City Hall JoAnn (Jody) Gillerman Work Sample List 1.

  • Shohola Property Rights Legal Battle by FRITZ MAYER
    Your Award-Winning News Source for the Upper Delaware River Valley Region Since 1975 Vol. 43 No. 24 AUGUST 24-30, 2017 www.riverreporter.com $1.50 Shohola property rights legal battle By FRITZ MAYER HOHOLA, PA — Amelia and William Pearn own a home in a neighborhood known as Maple Park, which is located next Sdoor to a community called Walker Lake, which is governed by a homeowners’ association called Walker Lakeshores Land- owners Association (WLLA). Since 2010, WLLA has been trying to get the Pearns to pay them thousands of dollars in “dues” or “assessments,” even though their property is not a part of Walker Lake and is not subject to WLLA assessments. That is essentially what two different judges have found. Amelia has recorded this battle in a very detailed manner at the website www.shoholapa.com. One entry that points to the confus- ing relationship between WLLA and Maple Park is this: “Most of Maple Park [about 30 homes] gets some form of ‘billing’ from this HOA [homeowners association]. Some pay, some don’t. Some get sued, some don’t.” The Pearns took title to the property in 2007, and the first billing from WLLA came in 2010; it was for “nonpayment of association dues, $5,440.90 plus attorney’s fees.” The matter went to Magis- terial District Court, where Magistrate Alan Cooper determined that the couple owed $15 per year to WLLA for “water mainte- TRR photo by Amanda Reed nance.” Given the three-year period under consideration, late fees This picture was taken during the solar eclipse on August 21 on the Pennsylvania side of the Upper Delaware River, across the and court costs, the judge ruled that the Pearns owe WLLA $235.

  • The Society of the Third
    PROLOGUE THE SOCIETY OF THE THIRD MILLENNIUM New Narratives Of A Reimagined Future Synthesized As The Integral Vision Of S3K “Because of the interconnectedness of all minds, affirming a positive vision may be about the most sophisticated action anyone of us can take.” —Willis Harmon, Global Mind Change “A developing brain is a sort of snowballing cognitive leviathan that adapts to everything and anything close to it. Learning is one aspect of extreme plasticity, and creativity another. Any species that can do such things as play with the world, imagine it, remember it, and expand its cir- cles of experience…will ultimately start to experiment.” —Merlin Donald, A Mind So Rare “If we can reimagine possibility it can result in an entirely new vision of how to create lasting change in our communities. Not in a dreamy, wish- ful, [naïve] sense, but rather through a bold and courageous commitment to practical and specific measures grounded in the daily experience of what has been proven to work over and over again but has not been tried on a large enough scale.” —Bill Shore, Revolution of the Heart “We need visions these days. Not the prognostications of cybergeeks and marketers and statisticians and trend-mongers who try to tell us where we’ll end up if we continue in the direction we’re going. Useful as these predictions may be, we’ve got plenty of those kinds of visions. What we need are visions of society the way we want it to be. Creative, seemingly impractical, catalytic visions of human possibility and achievement can inspire and motivate us to change our lives and the world.” —Eric Utne, Visionaries: People and Ideas to Change Your Life.

    Poets House | 10 River Terrace | New York, NY 10282 | poetshouse.org ELCOME to the 2018 Poets House Showcase, our annual, all-inclusive exhibition of the most recent poetry books, chapbooks, broadsides, artist’s books, and multimedia works published in the United States and abroad. W This year marks the 26th anniversary of the Poets House Showcase and features over 3,400 books from more than 750 different presses and publishers.

  • A Visit to North Spain at the Time of the Eclipse of 1860
    422 VACATION TOURISTS, AND [Spain and Eclipse. 12. A VISIT TO NORTH SPAIN AT THE TIME OF THE ECLIPSE. BY EKANCIS GALTON, F.RS. A direction was given to my summer rambles by the desire of witnessing the solar eclipse of last June, and by the fact that the path of its totality, where nearest to England, lay across a country which I ardently longed to visit. The result was, that I applied for permission, and obtained it, to form one of the party of astronomers who, under the leadership of the Astronomer-Eoyal, were taken by H.M.S. Himalaya to Spain. The Himalaya is truly a noble vessel, and we were right imperially treated. Those whose experience has been drawn from coasting passenger-steamers, in English or Mediterranean waters, would hardly credit that anything floated comparable in spaciousness and luxury to this magnificent ship. And she is as fast and as easy, excepting a tendency to roll, as she is spacious and comfortable ; for we steamed out of Plymouth Sound on a Saturday forenoon, so steadily, that I hardly knew we were moving ; and on the Sunday night we were going at half-power, because we were too near the Spanish coast, whose bold outlines lay in full view on the early Monday morning. It was therefore with one of those feelings of contrast so often enjoyed by travellers, that I, with my eyes still toned to that dim English daylight in which we had just bade fare- well to our shores, found myself paddling up the Bilbao river in a small shore-going craft, under a full flood of southern F.
