SUMMARY:Artist Salon with Quintron & Miss Pussycat
DESCRIPTION:Join us to meet and learn more about current Rising Residents Quintron & Miss Pussycat. They will give a short presentation on their work followed by a light dinner and refreshments. Registration is required below. \nDuring their residency\, Quintron and Miss Pussycat will create a live puppet show about extreme weather events\, utilizing a “Wildlife Organ” built and installed by Quintron at A Studio in the Woods. The Wildlife Organ is envisioned as a musical instrument using specially-housed microphones to intimately capture and process the broad spectrum of natural sounds on site\, routing each distinct sound back to a playable\, musical keyboard. \nMiss Pussycat began her career in art and puppetry as a child in the Southern Baptist Church of Antlers\, Oklahoma as part of the Christian Puppet Youth Ministry. She later moved to New Orleans and started a secret nightclub in her house called Pussycat Caverns\, which hosted bands and all types of performances in a unique and lively atmosphere. Today\, and for over 20 years\, she is busy presenting live puppet shows in rock clubs\, libraries\, and secret clubhouses all around the world\, and singing and playing maracas with Quintron. Her puppets and their worlds often become the genesis for other art projects\, such as ceramic statues\, paintings\, videos\, and electronic soundtracks. \nQuintron has been inventing electronic gadgets and creating genre-defying noise\, soundscape\, and house-rocking dance music in New Orleans for over 20 years\, much of it in collaboration with artist/puppeteer Panacea Theriac aka “Miss Pussycat”. In 1999\, Quintron helped to foster a DIY analog synth revival with a patented instrument called the DRUM BUDDY\, a light-activated analog drum machine that creates murky\, low-fidelity\, rhythmic patterns. These experiments eventually led to Quintron’s focus on a weather-controlled drone synthesizer called Weather Warlock and a website devoted to streaming its music called Weather For The Blind. \nThis program is supported by WWNO 89.9FM \nPhoto credit: Caitlyn Ridenour \nRegister here for Artist Salon with Quintron & Miss Pussycat

SUMMARY:DISH: Artist Salon with Laura Tanner
DESCRIPTION:Join us to meet and learn more about current Rising Resident Laura Tanner. She will give a short presentation on her work followed by a community potluck dinner accompanied by stories and memories. Registration is required below. \nLaura Tanner’s creative works act as sites of inquiry into the revisionist histories that reinforce systems of inequity. Spanning drawing\, installation\, and social practice\, she works with historical institutions and local communities to collect documented and oral histories that shed light on the extraordinary contradictions between the perceived and experienced narratives in America. \nDish is an ongoing project that studies regional foodways (i.e.\, the eating habits and culinary practices that guide the production and consumption of food) across the country to discover deep connections between diverse communities. In addition to creating drawings\, Laura is collecting recipes and personal narratives about food traditions to be published in a series of printed catalogs as well as in an online archive. Please consider contributing to this effort by bringing a written recipe or food story with your dish to the potluck dinner. The recipe could be one that has been handed down through the family for generations\, shared with you by a friend\, or developed on your own. The only requirement is that the recipe somehow evokes your relationship to Louisiana. If you decide to share a story\, please consider one (or more) of the following prompts: \n\nWhat is your relationship to Louisiana’s landscape? How has it changed throughout your life?\nDescribe your life and/ or family history in Louisiana?\nWhat foods did you grow up with?\nWhat is Louisiana food? How has it changed?\nTell a story about a recipe (it’s origins\, who made it for you\, etc.)\nWho sits at your table?\n\nThe printed catalog will take the form of a community/ Junior League cookbook\, acknowledging the activist history of informal cookbooks as the sustenance of change in America. If you choose to contribute\, you will receive a copy of the catalog with your recipe/ story included. \nThank you in advance for your assistance\, and Laura looks forward to meeting you all at the dinner!\nCheers! \nRegister Here

SUMMARY:Scent Walk with Manon Bellet
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a Scent Walk in the forest with visual and olfactory artist Manon Bellet on Friday\, December 8th\, 10am – 11:30am. Participants will walk in the woods and along the banks of the Mississippi\, focusing explicitly on smells while becoming aware of the smell of the surrounding landscape and paying attention to unexpected and curious smells while recognizing some familiar. The event is free\, but registration is required below! \nOlfaction is one of the most direct and archaic senses that does not obey one’s will but is directly linked to emotions and evokes memories and associations that seem very far from rational logic. It is a sense that appeals to our imagination. \nBefore coming to the Woods\nStart paying closer attention to smells in your own environment. What does your home\, your neighborhood\, your work smell like? Could you tell them apart by smell alone?\nWhat to expect\n\nBe alert for curious and unexpected smells\, but also for episode smells specific to a particular area\, flowers\, plants\, water… let’s say background smells that are less intense but suggest an olfactory context.\nWalk slowly and note at least four distinct smells. Write them down\, noting the location\, the smell’s intensity and duration\, and your reaction and thoughts.\nTry scent hunting\, such as crushing leaves or actively sniffing a wall or other object\, and write down four more.\nCollect four final odors using either of the methods described and discuss your results with other olfactory hikers; if appropriate\, choose an odor that summarizes the area.\n\n\nPlease refrain from wearing strong perfumes or other scents so that you may enter the experience with a clean slate.\nRegister here for Scent walk with Manon Bellet

SUMMARY:Walking in Wild Spaces with Tammy Greer
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a reflective walk with Director of the Southern Miss Center for American Indian Research and Studies Tammy Greer on Friday\, April 12th\, 10am-12pm. In this walk\, we will reflect on how creating and tending wild spaces\, co-creating with other forest beings\, and celebrating diverse and wild landscapes wherever we see them – in our yards and on our campuses\, in our board rooms and in our families\, in our forests and in ourselves – ensures their survival just as they ensure ours. The event is free\, but registration is required below! \nOur Southeastern Native ancestors lived in communities near waterways\, separated from one another by forested areas that were tended wild spaces – burned to manage underbrush\, reduce tick\, flea\, and other insect infestations\, promote growth in our fire-adapted long-leaf pine trees and enable others of the standing ones\, like oaks\, to have a competitive advantage. These tended wild forests provided food and drink\, shelter and defense\, medicine and clothing sovereignty to our ancestors\, just as she provides\, as well\, for all the needs of other forest dwellers. \nTammy Greer\, Ph.D. (United Houma Nation) is a faculty member in the School of Psychology and Director of the Southern Miss Center for American Indian Research and Studies. She is faculty advisor to the Golden Eagles Intertribal Society\, a Native focused student group who works with the Center to host a yearly powwow\, Native Ways School Days and other Native-focused events on campus. In 2005\, Dr. Greer\, along with other tribal folks and Southern Miss faculty\, built a 1000 square foot native plant tended wild garden on the Southern Miss Campus. \nShe recently completed a Library of Congress Grant titled\, “And We Are Still Here: Indigenous Culture Bearers of the United Houma Nation” with a goal of making Houma material culture visible in a national venue so that Houma youth\, for seven generations\, can see and hear their elders speak to Houma experiences and culture. She\, along with an intertribal group\, is working with Prospect New Orleans bring back our mound-building culture and is currently working to build an earthen mound on the Lafitte Greenway in New Orleans. Dr. Greer is trained as a statistician and works with Mississippi INBRE to train Native students to research health issues in our Southeastern tribes. She is Co-PI on an NIH grant titled “Okla Achokma” (Healthy People) with a goal of integrating spiritual and socio-emotional components that are rooted in culture into typical healthy ways interventions to make those interventions more holistic. \nThis program is funded by The New Orleans Town Gardeners. \nRegister here for Walking in wild spaces w/ Tammy Greer
