SUMMARY:Listening to the River
DESCRIPTION:Previous ASITW residents\, Monica Haller and Sebastian Muellauer are traveling down river for the month of July\, mapping the sounds of the river from headwaters to the delta. \nThey are using an underwater microphone (hydrophone)\, a robot buoy that records the sounds\, documents the route\, sights and observations along the way. The culmination of the trip is New Orleans where they are planning small actions of “listening to the river.” This articulates itself as an informal “listening station” where residents are invited to specific points of the waterfront to listen. There\, they settle down next to the river to hear the water passing by. The buoy suspends the hydrophone in the river. Listeners sit\, lie\, “plug in” to the water. It’s a simple action that people often find quite powerful. The sound streams live for anyone listening from afar. \nYou are invited to the river’s bank to participate. \nJoin us at the Audubon Park “Fly” by the old riverboat dock on Sunday\, August 23rd from 3-5pm* \n*Please check back here in case of rain.

SUMMARY:How to Build a Forest
DESCRIPTION:How to Build a Forest is a polysynthetic\, interdisciplinary hybrid of a project. Part visual art installation and part theater performance\, this durational event unfolds over eight hours. \nBeginning in an empty space\, visual artist Shawn Hall and theater/performance artists Katie Pearl and Lisa D’Amour—along with a four-person crew—work meticulously to construct\, dismantle\, and remove an elaborately fabricated forest. Inspired by 100 trees lost at a Louisiana family home following Hurricane Katrina\, How to Build a Forest is also strongly informed by the ecological consequences of the 2010 BP oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico.\n\nContemporary Art Center\n900 Camp Street\, New Orleans \nThere are a number of How to Build a Forest performances and talks!\nHow to Build a Forest – Friday\, October 23 – Thursday\, October 29\n\nForest and Water in Dialogue: Artists and Scientists Contemplate the Gulf Coast\, October 27th at 7pm\nPanel discussion with How to Build a Forest artists\, ecologist Dave Baker\, artist Monique Verdin\, and coastal geologist Alex Kokler about the current pressing environmental issues facing Louisiana.\n\nTrees Talk: 10 Years of Recovery Research in a Louisiana Bottomland Hardwood Forest 2005-2015\, October 28th at 3pm \nDavid Baker\, Environmental Curator at A Studio in the Woods\, tells the inspiring story of resilience and recovery of the Studio 8-acre forest with scientific research from pre- and post-Katrina. A forest ecologist\, Baker studies long term changes to Louisiana’s bottomland hardwood forests with a particular emphasis on how hurricanes and invasive species change these ecosystems. \nOn performance days\, audience members can visit the forest at any time during its 8-hour life cycle\, viewing it from afar\, or up close\, or side by side with the builders.

SUMMARY:Listening and Singing in Nature with Resident Shay Nichols
DESCRIPTION:How can singing deepen our connection to the natural world and each other? Listening to the sounds and stillness of nature\, we will tune ourselves to the natural environment. How can we listen to nature as music? Using long tones and simple patterns\, we will explore the many possibilities of creating spontaneous soundscapes together. \nThursday\, October 29th\, 9:30-11am A Studio in the Woods\nClick here for map and directions: MAP \nSpace is limited\, please sign up HERE. This event is primarily geared towards adults\, but teens and youth may attend with a guardian. No musical experience required.* Check out this nice write up from Mary Rickard for Nolavie.com \nDeeply inspired by the wisdom of nature\, Shay Nichols is a recording artist\, performer\, and teacher. Her first CD “Wildflower\,” features voice-only compositions born out of her time in natural settings. A graduate of the California Institute of Integral Studies Voice/Sound Healing program and Open Ear Center\, Shay loves helping people experience the power of listening and creating music in nature. She is creating the Natural Music Institute\, an international organization which fosters collaborations between ecologists and musicians to produce recordings inspired by natural environments.

SUMMARY:Sunday Dinner on the Bayou
DESCRIPTION:Join WWNO\, A Studio in the Woods & The Land Memory Bank in historic St. Bernard Parish as we celebrate coastal food and culture\, down Bayou Terre-aux Bouefs at Los Islenos Museum and Cultural Complex\, 1357 Bayou Road\, Saint Bernard\, LA 70085. \nFamily-style local foodways feast\, foraged by Blaise Pezold\, prepared by award winning Chef Michael Gulotta (formerly of Restaurant August and current owner of Mopho Mid-City\,) paired with Louisiana rhythm & bluesman Guitar Lightnin’ Lee and His Thunder Band and a St. Bernard photo exhibit “Honoring our Ancestors” by Monique Verdin. \nSaint Bernard\, a sister Parish of New Orleans located just down river from the old city\, has significantly contributed to the rich history and culture of Louisiana. Indigenous peoples once lived along the parish bayous and prairies\, and in cypress swamp forest that were once so thick one could not see the sun. Early colonial journals note that the “boeuf savage\,” buffalo\, roamed along the historic distributary now known as Bayou Terre-aux-Boeufs. The Islenos\, Canary Islanders\, were settled along the historic bayou in the seventeen hundreds\, when the Spanish had possession of the Louisiana territory. Italians\, Creoles\, Africans\, American Indians\, Acadians\, Spaniards\, former Yugoslavians and many others have called these fertile lands and bountiful waters home. \nAcross south Louisiana\, there once was a thriving dancehall tradition. Just about every small community had a dancehall\, sometime two or more even. These were sacred places\, where community would gather to dance and eat and talk and celebrate. Unfortunately\, like our coastal wetlands\, the dancehall culture is disappearing in St. Bernard. \nIn an attempt to resurrect the old community rituals\, WWNO\, A Studio in the Woods and The Land Memory Bank have partnered to present a Sunday Dancehall down Bayou Terre-aux-Boeufs. Join us as we celebrate coastal food and culture and converse about southeast Louisiana’s hopes\, challenges and adaptations. \nCoastal converstation facilitated by A Studio in the Woods artist in resident Christy George and Tulane University faculty partner Laura Murphy\, PhD\, Carnegie Corporation of New York Professor of Social Entrepreneurship (Department of Global Community Health and Behavioral Sciences and the Phyllis M. Taylor Center for Social Innovation and Design Thinking.)

This installation features a map of the wards of New Orleans\, rendered in steel plates and sonified by electric transducers. The plates play fundamental resonant tones and an array of field recordings. These recordings\, and the writings that accompany them\, have been gathered and written by over 40 area high school students in response to the prompt: “What does home sound like\, and what are the sounds of its changing?” \nOn May 2nd\, at 5:30pm\, Locating New Orleans (at Tulane City Center) will host a showing of the sonified map and other student work that bears connection with the map exhibit. Students will be in attendance and will engage in a public dialogue with Tulane faculty about the themes of the work and about doing the writing and filed recordings involved in the creation process. \nA more comprehensive presentation of the map and of other student artwork\, writing\, and photography will be hosted by Creative Alliance of New Orleans in the 3rd Floor exhibition space of the Myrtle Banks Building. There will be an opening for the show on Friday\, May 20th from 6pm-9pm.

SUMMARY:Skrontch Music\, a new work by Byron Asher
DESCRIPTION:Byron Asher and guests will perform “Skrontch Music”\, a new major piece of music for clarinet and large ensemble that explores and is in service to the New Orleanian Creole traditions of clarinet virtuosity and political radicalism\, created during Asher’s time in residence at A Studio in the Woods. His writing process was aided by deep research\, including an oral history project of collaborative design with his faculty partner\, Sharlene Sinegal DeCuir (Xavier\, History)\, which documents the experiences of the older generation of Creole and New Orleans musicians still performing today. \nAsher will be accompanied in this performance by Reagan Mitchell\, Ricardo Pascal\, Aurora Nealand\, Shaye Cohn\, Emily Frederickson\, Oscar Rossignoli\, Steve Glenn\, James Singleton\, and Paul Thibodeaux. The performance will be followed by a panel discussion. \nWednesday\, April 19\, 6:30pm\n2nd Floor Recital Hall\nBlanche M.

SUMMARY:Slave Trail of Tears: The Forgotten Journey of a Million
DESCRIPTION:A Studio in the Woods and the New Orleans Center for the Gulf (Nola Gulf South) welcome you to Slave Trail of Tears: The Forgotten Journey of a Million. Edward Ball tells the story of a migration twice as large as the wagon train journey that would carry half a million whites west\, a movement twenty times bigger than the Native American “Trail of Tears” that led into Oklahoma. During the fifty years before the Civil War\, close to one million people\, enslaved African Americans\, were pushed out of the Upper South and forced to journey to the Deep South to work the cotton and sugar plantations. On the “Slave Trail of Tears\,” people marched 1000 miles in chained “coffles” of 20 to 100 from the Chesapeake to Louisiana. Or\, they were herded onto ships that sailed from near Washington\, DC\, around Florida\, and up the Mississippi River to be sold in New Orleans. Ball asserts that the “Slave Trail of Tears\,” and not the African slave trade\, is the reason why most black people have roots in the Delta South. This is a migration that changed 500\,000 families\, populated the Southeast\, and reshaped America. \nThis lecture is the second public event in the inaugural Gulf South Writer in the Woods program\, a two-year study with Edward Ball. The Gulf South Writer in the Woods program is co-sponsored by A Studio in the Woods and the New Orleans Center for the Gulf South (Nola Gulf South) and includes a residency\, public lectures and a workshop exploring race\, family and place. \nEdward Ball was born in Savannah\, Georgia and raised in Louisiana\, South Carolina\, and Florida. He is an author who has written about the legacies of slavery in the Deep South. Edward’s book “Slaves in the Family” tells the story of his father’s family in South Carolina\, the Balls\, who were major slaveholders for 170 years\, as well as the stories of ten of the African American families the Balls once enslaved. Slaves in the Family won the National Book Award for nonfiction\, became a New York Times bestseller\, was featured on Oprah and is widely translated. Edward Ball lives in New Haven\, Connecticut\, where he taught for five years at Yale University. He is working on a book about New Orleans during the years after the Civil War. \nFor more information\, contact Regina Cairns at the New Orleans Center for the Gulf South at 504-314-2854 or rcairns@tulane.edu and visit our website: tulane.edu/NOCGS.

SUMMARY:Crude Life Portable Museum: A Citizen Art and Science Investigation of Gulf of Mexico Biodiversity after the Deepwater Horizon Oil Spill
DESCRIPTION:Join artist/biologist Dr. Brandon Ballengée for a pop-up exhibition and reception of Crude Life December 14\, 5:30 – 6:30 at the Tulane River and Coastal Center\, 1370 Port of New Orleans Place1370 Port of New Orleans Place (behind the Convention Center) organized by Studio in the Woods during the 2017 American Geophysical Union Meeting. Open to the public and free. \nCrude Life is an interdisciplinary art\, science and outreach project focused on gathering data on endemic fishes affected by the 2010 Gulf of Mexico Oil Spill. This portable art- science museum of Gulf of Mexico regional biodiversity seeks to raise public awareness of local species\, ecosystems\, and regional environmental challenges through temporary “pop-up” exhibitions along community “citizen science” surveys of Gulf species. \n\n\nThe art-science museum’s “galleries” were created from repurposed sea chests/ steamer trunks retrofitted with handcrafted wood interiors for easy transport. As the museum travels\, the collaborators lead public and youth “Eco-Action” educational and research field trips\, to sample local fishes and other aquatic species while encouraging participants to make their own art about the discovered animals. Data on these species will be utilized for a scientific study and participant artworks will be included in the museum. The combination of the curiosity of a mobile museum\, interactivity of citizen science\, and one-on-one discussions occurring as a result of the project stimulates ongoing dialogues\, education\, data gathering\, and to create valuable lasting partnerships throughout the Gulf region. The scientific focus of the project seeks to find 14 missing species of endemic Gulf fishes that have not been found following the spill. With the help of Gulf residents\, we hope to find them! \n\n\n\nInvestigators: Dr. Brandon Ballengée (PI\, Louisiana State University) Dr. Prosanta Chakrabarty (Co-PI\, Louisiana State University) Sean Owen Miller (Co-PI\, University of Florida) Rachel Mayeri (Co-PI\, Harvey Mudd College)Collaborators: Dr. Suzanne Fredericq (University of Louisiana at Lafayette) Aurore Ballengée (Atelier de la Nature) Monique Michelle Verdin (My Louisiana Love) Dr. Benjamin Dubansky (University of Texas Denton) \nParticipants: Senator Norbert ‘Norby’ Nolty Chabert (Louisiana State Senate) Cherri Foytlin (Bold Louisiana) Josh Baumgardener (Haliburton) Dr. Edward Chesney (Louisiana Universities Marine Consortium/ LUMCON) Dr. Alexander Kolker (Louisiana Universities Marine Consortium/ LUMCON) Dr. Linda Hooper Bui (Louisiana State University) Blaise Daniel Pezold (Louisiana Department of Agriculture and Forestry’s Coastal ReVegetation Project) Randon Dufrene (Tee Jug’s Shrimp Company) Bob Chateaulin (Private horticulturalist) Keith Broussard (Fish and Wildlife Manager of Cypremort State Park) Jonathan Foret (Executive Director South Louisiana Wetlands Discover Center) Members of the Pointe-Aux-Chenes Tribe + Students and residents of the Louisiana coast regions \nSupport Received: Interdisciplinary Projects Grant Award\, National Academies Keck Futures Initiative (NAKFI)\, a project of the National Academies of Sciences\, Engineering and Medicine\, Washington D.C.; Artspark Grant\, Acadiana Center for the Arts (ACA) and Lafayette Economic Development Authority (LEDA)\, Lafayette\, LA.; and University of Florida\, Gainesville\, FL.

Working with faculty\, students and community members from New Orleans\, she will use her time at A Studio in the Woods to do archival research\, conduct reading and writing groups that will produce the text for the video installation and to hold a community design workshop to prototype the floating modules that will capture footage of the River. \nAbout the Artist – Tia-Simone is a mixed media artist working in methods of appropriation and installation. She investigates place-based knowledge through personal and collective experiences of space and time. Tia is interested in psychological relationships to locations and the idea of home. She has held residencies in the Netherlands\, Sweden and Woodstock\, NY and will add New Orleans to that list during her residency. She holds an MFA from the University of Pennsylvania and a BA from the University of Alabama at Birmingham. She currently lives in Minneapolis\, MN.

SUMMARY:Inheriting Whiteness: A Workshop about Ancestors and History
DESCRIPTION:The New Orleans Center for the Gulf South\, A Studio in the Woods\, and the New Orleans Public Library will host the workshop Inheriting Whiteness: A Workshop About Slavery\, Race Mixing\, and White Ancestors in Family History. \n*SPACE FOR THE WORKSHOP IS LIMITED. PLEASE APPLY TO BE CONSIDERED. \nDate: Saturday\, March 3\, 2018\nTime: 9am–12pm (workshop)\n12–1pm (lunch and conversation)\nLocation: New Orleans Public Library\, Algiers\n3014 Holiday Drive\, New Orleans 70131 \nDescription:\n\nInheriting Whiteness: A Workshop About Slavery\, Race Mixing\, and White Ancestors in Family History offers an opportunity to look at challenging facts of family and racial identity and to learn more about one’s own ancestry through research. People of African and European descent are welcome. In this three-hour genealogy workshop\, participants explore subjects like slaveholding or enslavement\, race mixing\, and the role of whiteness in family memory. In the first half of the workshop\, participants will be asked to share a brief family story that they have begun to research or wish to investigate. In response\, workshop leaders Edward Ball and Greg Osborn will offer guidance and research advice about archives and genealogical methods. During the workshop’s second half\, participants will discuss the promise and troubles that come with “difficult” stories of race in family history. After the workshop\, participants are invited to share lunch and further conversation. In the South\, monuments are coming down\, while nationally\, stories of race and memory compete for our attention. Inheriting Whiteness\, a workshop in genealogy\, offers to spread understanding through the shared project of storytelling in family history. \nThe workshop Inheriting Whiteness will be led by nationally-known author Edward Ball (Slaves in the Family) and by archivist and genealogist Greg Osborn of the New Orleans Public Library’s Louisiana Division. Inheriting Whiteness is sponsored by the New Orleans Center for the Gulf South at Tulane University\, A Studio in the Woods\, A Program of Tulane University\, the New Orleans Public Library’s Louisiana Division/City Archives and Special Collections\, and the Algiers Regional Library. \nInheriting Whiteness is a workshop in two parts\, followed by lunch. \nPart 1 / Sharing Family Stories (90 min.)\nWhat is the “hard stuff” to investigate or talk about in your family history?\nPart 1 of the workshop is a story-sharing circle led by archivist and genealogist Greg Osborn of the New Orleans Public Library’s Louisiana Division. Each participant will be asked to share a brief (three-minute) family story that they are investigating. Perhaps it is about the role of slavery\, or the behavior of white ancestors\, or about mixed-race forebears in the family tree. Workshop leaders will offer feedback and guidance for further research in available archives. By sharing personal histories and by building common questions\, the circle of understanding about race and family memory grows. \nPart 2 / The Dialogue (90 min.)\nHow do some stories in the family tree stir emotions—such as those about race mixing\, or white supremacy\, or slavery and Jim Crow—and what is to be done with those stories? What is the meaning\, for us today\, of slaveholding or enslavement in the family past?\nIn Part 2\, author Edward Ball leads a conversation about themes and family histories that emerge during the Story Circle. Edward Ball and Greg Osborn together support a dialogue about the racial inheritance that whites and blacks share and seek ways to process it. The aim of the workshop is to help participants claim family stories that remain hidden or are purposefully forgotten. \nLunch\nFor those who wish to continue the discussion after the workshop\, a brown bag lunch will be offered. \nRegistration\nTo attend the workshop\, please submit an application by February 15th. To enable discussion\, the workshop will be held to 20 participants. Only those who complete an application may attend. \nApplication Link: https://goo.gl/forms/mcL26jdwBkzpEk3K2. \nA notice about attendance will go out by email on February 22nd. The workshop takes place on March 3rd. \nWorkshop Leaders \nEdward Ball — \nEdward Ball has published five books of history and other nonfiction\, including Slaves in the Family\, an account of his family’s 170-year history as slaveholders in South Carolina\, and The Inventor and the Tycoon\, a story of the birth of moving pictures. Currently\, he is writing about the Ku Klux Klan in Louisiana\, examining the race terror that spread through the South after the Civil War\, during Reconstruction.\nWinner of the National Book Award for Slaves in the Family\, Edward Ball is the recipient of a Cullman Fellowship from the New York Public Library and a Public Scholar Grant from the National Endowment for the Humanities. He has taught at Yale University and was a fellow at the Radcliffe Institute for Advanced Study\, at Harvard. \nGreg Osborn — \nGregory Osborn is a native of Southern California with deep Louisiana roots.

SUMMARY:Life of a Klansman: A Lecture by Author Edward Ball
DESCRIPTION:The New Orleans Center for the Gulf South and A Studio in the Woods invite you to “Life of a Klansman” with Gulf South Writer in the Woods Edward Ball. \nWriter Edward Ball tells the story of a foot soldier in the race battles that erupted in New Orleans and throughout Louisiana during the period after the Civil War. This talk is one part history\, one part family memoir. \nThe Klansman of the tale was an ordinary man\, a French creole carpenter who fought with the White League (1874–75) and the Knights of the White Camellia (1869–72)\, two white supremacist militias in Louisiana in the post-Civil War years. He was also a member of Edward Ball’s own family. \nIn “Life of a Klansman\,” Ball explores the making of a single guerilla fighter who violently opposed the experiment in racial democracy introduced in Louisiana during Reconstruction (1865–77). Louisiana saw one of the first attempts at race equity in the South. How did it fail? And why did white supremacy take root instead? As racial violence returns to public view today\, Edward Ball explores the birth of tribal white identity through the eyes of his great-grandfather\, a man active in the founding generation of the Ku Klux Klan. Whiteness has a history that is hidden and intentionally forgotten. It is a story relevant to the living\, particularly now. \nThis lecture is the third public event in the inaugural Gulf South Writer in the Woods program\, a two-year study with Edward Ball. The Gulf South Writer in the Woods program is co-sponsored by A Studio in the Woods and the New Orleans Center for the Gulf South (Nola Gulf South ) and includes a residency\, public lectures and a workshop exploring race\, family and place. \nEdward Ball was born in Savannah\, Georgia and raised in Louisiana\, South Carolina\, and Florida. He is an author who has written about the legacies of slavery in the Deep South. Edward’s book “Slaves in the Family” tells the story of his father’s family in South Carolina\, the Balls\, who were major slaveholders for 170 years\, as well as the stories of ten of the African American families the Balls once enslaved. Slaves in the Family won the National Book Award for nonfiction\, became a New York Times bestseller\, was featured on Oprah and is widely translated. Edward Ball lives in New Haven\, Connecticut\, where he taught for five years at Yale University. He is working on a book about New Orleans during the years after the Civil War. \nThe lecture will take place at 7pm on Tuesday\, March 6 at the First Unitarian Universalist Church of New Orleans\, 2903 Jefferson Ave. \n\nFor more information\, contact Regina Cairns at the New Orleans Center for the Gulf South at 504-314-2854 or rcairns@tulane.edu and visit our website: tulane.edu/NOCGS.

SUMMARY:Uncommon Exchanges: Clay
DESCRIPTION:In this new speaker series presented by Newcomb Art Museum in partnership with A Studio in the Woods\, The ByWater Institute at Tulane University\, and Nola Gulf South\, unlikely pairings of Tulane and Gulf South experts use an aspect of Newcomb’s latest exhibition as the catalyst for interdisciplinary dialogue. In this edition\, current resident Tia-Simon Gardner and English Chair Mike Kuczynski will use clay as the launching point for a deeper look into their own research and how they may\, no matter how unlikely\, overlap. \nThe discussion will be moderated by a representative from the hosting organizations and be held in the museum. The discussion will last around 45 minutes with 15 minutes of Q&A time at the end for audience engagement. \nBoth New Orleans and Tulane communities are encouraged to attend and take advantage of this opportunity to engage with academics\, artists\, and activists in a variety of fields. \nImage Credit: Ana Gomez\, “Combo Talavera”\, 2008-2010\, handpainted stoneware

SUMMARY:A Thing that Floats: Collaborative Design Charrette
DESCRIPTION:Join current Adaptations Resident Tia-Simone Gardner for ‘A Thing that Floats: Collaborative Design Charrette’. Participants in the charrette will collectively work on drawing designs and generate ideas for prototypes for small floating structures that can house cameras to capture images on the water. The goal is to think about the process of making images on a powerful moving body of water. This process includes thinking about the apparatus used to make those images and offers us an opportunity to collectively think about how we see and surveil the bodies of water that are a part of this city. The charrette will offer time to collaboratively think and talk about how\, if\, or when we perceive the bodies of water around us. Thursday\, March 22\, 6-8pm at the Albert and Tina Small Center for Collaborative Design\, 1725 Barronne Street.

SUMMARY:Fallen Fruit of New Orleans: Opening Reception
DESCRIPTION:Join us for the opening reception for Fallen Fruit’s EMPIRE\, a new art installation on view at the Newcomb Art Museum. Friday\, April 13. 5:30pm – 9pm \nCelebrating the New Orleans Tricentennial\, EMPIRE is an art installation by Los Angeles-based artists Fallen Fruit\, David Allen Burns and Austin Young\, commissioned and presented by Newcomb Art Museum\, A Studio in the Woods\, and Pelican Bomb. Through this assembly of over 300 objects\, the artists will transform the entire museum into one immersive artwork. \nThe project uses objects culled from the diverse archives and collections across campus\, including art\, sound\, documents of record\, material culture\, and artifacts. It activates objects held by the Amistad Research Center\, Hogan Jazz Archive\, Latin American Library\, Louisiana Research Collection\, Middle American Research Institute\, Newcomb Art Museum\, Newcomb College Institute\, Royal D. Suttkus Fish Collection / Tulane University Biodiversity Research Institute\, and Southeastern Architectural Archive\, among other campus collections\, shifting the lexicon of historical meanings into one work of art. \nEMPIRE critically examines the principles of archives and anthropology to interrogate the ways histories are told\, remembered\, and revised. The immersive artwork considers the historical and contemporary effects that colonialism\, slavery\, trade\, and tourism have had on the movement of culture across and beyond borders to better understand the geographic and cultural position of New Orleans in relationship to Africa\, the Caribbean\, and Latin America. EMPIRE invites viewers to creatively interpret the displayed objects\, their connections\, and their juxtapositions to generate new meanings. \nEMPIRE at Newcomb Art Museum of Tulane University is part of “Fallen Fruit of New Orleans” a suite of site-specific projects taking place throughout New Orleans from June 2017 through June 2018\, commissioned and presented by Newcomb Art Museum\, A Studio in the Woods\, and Pelican Bomb. “Fallen Fruit of New Orleans” was initiated by Pelican Bomb in 2015.
