“I am all for art's finding a large audience. But the way that's happening now, with big works filling big galleries and bigger shows, is mostly stopping statements from being made. Or heard. Or talked about. Or really examined. It's watering things down.” WayArtMadeShowsBigsAudienceHeardFindingsHappeningsBiggerStatementsStoppingFillingGallery Author:Jerry Saltz
“An effective leader is willing to think about what's happening and how to understand what's going on. Facilitating flow and making others more conscious of it, the leader communicates an awareness of process to the group, making them more aware of their energies and options. One important principle is to keep track of who has not spoken. ... It's also important to notice when people do speak out but are not heard. Effective leaders practice patience, reminding themselves to wait and observe, remembering that there's always more going on in a group than we're consciously aware of.” PeopleThinkingImportantRememberEnergySpeakWaitingProcessLeadershipLeaderPrinciplesPracticeHeardGroupsAwarenessWillingHappeningsConsciousFlowTrackCommunicateRemindingSpeaks Out Author:Diane Dreher
“The reason for backing tracks is to not veer off too far from the record and have what the fans actually want to hear.

It's not to be confused with lip synching or anything like that cos that's not happening at all.” WantFirstsReasonUseArtistRecordsHeardFansHappeningsFirst TimeLipsTrackConsumersConfused Author:Chris Johnson
“The whole thing was set up very cleverly. The people who were torn from their normal lives and put on the trains may have heard that terrible things were happening in Auschwitz, but even up to the end, they kept on thinking: Perhaps it isn't so bad after all. And then they arrived and the SS told them: "The old people and the sick can take the truck. Anyone who is still young can walk." It took us a while to realize that the ones who were being driven were really being taken to the gas chambers.” PeopleThinkingMayStillsEndsWholeYoungRealizingWalksTakenHeardTerribleNormalHappeningsSickTrainDrivenGasTornOld PeopleTruckChamberTerrible ThingsNormal LifeAuschwitzVery CleverGas Chambers Author:Anita Lasker-Wallfisch
“I have an artist background and I got into the field because I heard things in my own head that weren't happening and I wanted to have the control. So I learned to record and mix and do all those things. I found it as a means to an end, and I was fascinated by sound and creating sound. I very quickly became addicted to understanding everything there was to know.” KnowsMeanEndsWantedArtistFoundUnderstandingSoundMy OwnRecordsHeardFieldsCreatingHappeningsBackgroundsFascinatedMeans To An EndUnderstanding Everything Author:Emily Lazar
“It's completely unsexy [Yello, "Oh Yeah" 1985]. It does capture that weird '80s materialism and "We're gonna get it on now" vibe. But it's a very juvenile approach. It also became a weird signal for comedy, in the sense that when you heard the song, it meant comedy was happening on screen. I feel like this song was probably done in a couple of minutes in a studio.” FeelsDoeDoneSongComedyHeardMinutesCoupleApproachHappeningsYeahStudiosScreensMaterialismCaptureSignals80sJuvenile Author:Margaret Cho
