Talk At Ten Interview: River Is The Road Festival (Radio interview @ KRTS Marfa)

Many thanks to my friend and mentor Eileen Torpey and Bett Williams for putting on an amazing film festival in Marfa, TX. Drift 2011 was amazing and I am sorry I could not be there in person, only in artistry. At the 17:00m mark, they discuss my Videom, recorded and premiered at the Drift 2011 Film Festival. Thank you Eileen and Bett!

“Ruidosa: A Videom” was a poem that was requested and originally composed by Hakim Bellamy for DRIFT 2011.

“The River is the Road: Ruidosa Art Happening” is hosting a DRIFT Video Night on September 17, 2011 in Ruidosa, Texas. There will be a selection of video shorts by artists from the East Coast and Southwest as well as live performances by New York artists Irvin Morazan and Geoffrey Hendricks (“Headstand for Eileen—a meditation”). Sacred Heart Mission Church in Ruidosa, 7:00-8:30pm. Funding for this year’s DRIFT is provided by the Idea Fund.

DRIFT is an annual group exhibition that moves to a new location every year. The exhibition characterizes the impermanence and site-specificity of the artworks as well as the adaptive qualities of the participating artists. DRIFT highlights under represented talented artists while emphasizing the critical role of experimentation and process within conventional and unconventional exhibition spaces.

Soon to be released documentary on UNM Afro-Studies 40th Anniversary…

I just got to see the packaged documentary on the UNM Africana Studies 40th Anniversary I produced with Darryl DeLoach and the NM Office of African American Affairs. It looks great. Wow, I’m a documentary producer. smh
