RIP the "Lovergirl": Teena Marie (1956–2010)

will@stonefour.com — 2010-12-27T05:27:17-05:00

(ATLANTA :: 27 December 2010) We just learned yesterday of the passing of R&B legend Teena Marie. She was 54. She was due to play Atlanta’s Fox Theatre on New Year’s Day and considered an area favorite. As an early protégée of Rick James, Marie broke huge ground in the 1980s as a crossover R&B artist; she also is godmother to Maya Rudolph of SNL fame, who sang on one of Marie’s records, “Too Many Colors,” in the early years. We’ll be spinning “Lovergirl” on New Year’s Eve - make sure to join us! -WP

Turning Highway Drudgery into Artistic Vision

will@stonefour.com — 2010-12-25T06:39:11-05:00

One could argue that we as artists have the chance to bring artistry to things that don’t always seem that way at first glance. On the surface, our Atlanta highway system is probably the least evocative or creative experience on the planet - devoid of intrigue and high on frustration. ...

Greg Masterson’s “I-75 Southbound”

With Greg Masterson’s “I-75 Southbound,” our most consistent source of angst is cast in a new and more engaging light. “I like this picture because we never really know what is around the bend in the road,” he says. ...Greg is Bill Brennan’s cousin. For those playing at home, Bill was the subject of “Moments that Matter,” last year’s mixed-media piece based on his marriage to Jim Verraros.

Merry Christmas! And for All... Some "Firework"

will@stonefour.com — 2010-12-25T06:14:05-05:00

(ATLANTA :: 25 December 2010) In some ways, the images of the below “Firework” video tell the story better than the song and lyric alone, but they are still pretty cool: “You don't have to feel like a waste of space
...The message of the song and the video is to try and be exceptional, even amidst the most dire circumstances. Even some of the most successful, the most outwardly vibrant folks among us, don’t know how to seize their joy and own it. So, this song - as well as this event - stands to remind its artists, PI staff and volunteers, as well as PI’s clients that they are unique and treasured in their own way. ...

Self-starting Creativity Is Good for your Health

will@stonefour.com — 2010-12-18T06:32:01-05:00

The below quote is from a link shared by Jason Maynard - one of our multidiscipline artists who leads the music program at Covenant Presbyterian Church in Augusta, Ga. Writing in the HuffPo, author Joe Robinson talks about how “life intelligence” helps us live a more fulfilling - and as a result, a healthier - life. “A study of choral singers done by Cal State Irvine illustrates just how powerful putting it all out there can be. When the singers in the Pacific Chorale did rehearsals, researchers Robert Beck and Thomas Cesario found that a protein essential to fighting disease, immunoglobulin A, increased 150 percent. ... Hum along in self-consciousness or boredom and you don't get the benefit the comes when you let it fly. This is such a great metaphor for the role passion plays in unleashing an extraordinary life.” A shout out to everyone involved with PI, and ARTvision artists and donors, who each year “let it fly” for a great cause. Back to Jason: Make sure to check out his newly updated artist page, complete with the backstory of “Diamonds” and “Witness.”

Rethinking Tolerance: A 'Carefully Orchestrated' Reboot of Understanding

will@stonefour.com — 2010-12-13T06:34:23-05:00

(CHARLOTTESVILLE, VA :: 13 DECEMBER 2010) Bullying in schools is on the rise. ...Here’s another shade to add to 2010’s dark side: the spate of youth suicides this year within the gay and lesbian community. ...“The Carefully Orchestrated Revival of Joy and Hope,” one of my pieces for ARTvision-5 this year, was created as a message to persuade those who might choose to bully, to invade privacy, to deny rights, or just simply be an asshole to stand down and rethink their actions. ... People are not “haters” because they disagree with something you’re doing or saying; in the same way, someone isn’t likely to incite violence just because they own a gun. ...While Jason’s orchestra was rehearsing for Westobou Festival, I listened to the gorgeous acoustics of the church and photographed a stained-glass window to capture the emergent glow behind the beautiful colors - and its understated illumination spoke volumes. ...Some politicians and pundits proudly say “tolerance” is part of how they deal with differences as if it were badge of honor, and that’s a whole steaming pile of horseshit. ...Young men like Tyler Clementi, the promising musician and student at Rutgers, could have used that sort of understanding, that type of care with actions and words, but he didn’t get it. So, this piece is dedicated to him and other gay youth who should know and have been reminded this year that life does, in fact, get better when you take the time to live and speak with dignity and understanding.
