In her project "Ode to Home" - part of PPL's Adaptive Practices series in Spring 2020 - Davis presented two April workshops. This recording is of the first workshop which took place on Zoom, the second was not recorded by request of the artist. Davis' artististic statement noted, "Sometimes one’s relationship to home can be complicated. An Ode to Home explores my relationship to my hometown and how my family's history is reflected in its natural and constructed landscapes. This work is a collection of 42 old and new photographs where narrative emerges through imagery, juxtaposition, and sequencing. If I develop a creative block, one of my strategies for moving forward is to revisit another project. An Ode to Home emerged out of a similar space, while reconsidering the in-between spaces that connect thoughts, projects, and relationships. In this two-part workshop, we will discuss the background and creative process of An Ode to Home and create a space to construct and share your own ode. What is your relationship to home and what can be gleaned from your existing collection of images to to communicate that story? How can you use the space between one image and the next as a tool to create meaning?" Creator Who created this item? Becci Davis Publisher Are you submitting this on behalf of someone else?

Adaptive Practices: Six Artists Redefine Isolation and Distraction Description What is it all about? Adaptive Practices was an interactive project developed at PPL in the spring of 2020 as the pandemic necessitated closing public spaces and prohibited public gatherings. In March, as we considered how PPL might re-imagine our programming to both reflect and work within the perimeters of this new reality, we talked with our cadre of  Creative Fellows: Laura Brown-Lavoie, Becci Davis, Kelly Eriksen, Keri King, Walker Mettling, and Micah Salkind, six artists and creators who had each worked on a long-term, original project within our Special Collections. We thought about how, as artists, their endeavors often encompassed venturing into the unknown, enduring “fallow” periods of reflection and synthesis in which no immediate “product” would result, and working in solitude when research or experimentation was necessary. So we asked them to share their work with us in a way that would allow us to see and maybe even experience how they navigate and negotiate these conditions of uncertainty and unfamiliarity, and the result was this project.

This recording is of the first workshop which took place on Zoom, the second was not recorded by request of the artist. Ericksen's description of the project notes, ""During my PPL Creative Fellowship this year, working in the medium of sound, I've been researching something called the Linguistics Atlas Project (LAP), which was a survey conducted from 1930 to 1980 to collect information about the way English is spoken across the United States. Part of the data collected for this project includes hundreds of hours of interviews where people were prompted to say ""everyday words,” and I've been listening to parts of these interviews over and over again on my computer. For part one of How People Talk/A Composition of Conversations I’ll share recordings from these “anonymous” interviews for everyone to hear, and talk a bit about my experience of repeated listening to them, including some of the questions about the interviews and the experience of listening to them that have come up for me through the process of repeated listenings. What does it mean to record a voice? And what does it mean to be able to rewind and fast forward through that recording, and pause and play and pause and play, listening over and over and over again? What can we learn about how we use words, how we do and don't put them together in conversation, and why we make the choices we do?"" " Creator Who created this item?

In her project "Tapping Rituals" - part of PPL's Adaptive Practices series in Spring 2020 - Keri King created three films of how her tap dancing practice evolved to meet social distancing requirements during COVID-19. Each of her films include two variations - one with voice over and one without. King's artistic statement noted, "When I first heard that we'd all be cooped up for a couple of weeks, I thought I'd hunker down at my drafting table and develop new illustration work. Instead, I've been out in the woods, practicing my tap exercises. I have absolutely no idea where I’m headed with this but the pursuit feels fresh and generative. For PPL, I will be sharing a series of short videos documenting tap dance practice in unexpected and isolated places. Through this presentation, I hope to invite library audiences to consider their own shifting relationships to public spaces and private rituals with a sense of power, possibility, and humor.
