SUMMARY:The Emergency Was Curiosity: In Defense of Useless Projects
DESCRIPTION:A talk and Q&A with investor and producer Christie George about The Emergency Was Curiosity\, an illustrated book report inspired by Jenny Odell’s How to Do Nothing. Christie’s project could be categorized as useless – there was no client\, no publisher\, no commissioning editor; she did this project for no other reason than that she wanted to. \nDuring the summer of 2020\, inspired by ideas about attention in Jenny’s book\, Christie began making hand-drawn illustrations\, watercolors\, and collages as a creative response and a means to develop her own practice of attention. What began for her as a “book report” turned into a body of artwork\, an exhibition\, an event series and\, more recently\, a group project. \nThis talk will ask each of us: what is worth paying attention to? Christie will mount a defense of your most useless projects – the work that is hard to categorize\, commodify\, or sell – and challenge you to honor and follow your own creative attention. \nSpeakers: \nChristie George\,  Investor/Producer \n  \n
