First of all, a big warm “thank you” to those who have been downloading and listening to my little project since its inception in June.
I appreciate the feedback and input, and I hope to produce engaging and timely episodes in 2012.
This project has really just gotten started, and I’m looking forward to the next few months of talking and recording. I’m planning on releasing dispatches from Philadelphia, Seattle, and Tennessee during next year, details to follow. New episodes of the Jonescast will be available bi-weekly beginning in January, along with a peppering of mini podcasts. The content of the Jonescast will also be a bit more varied in 2012: there will be panel interviews, conversations with writers, chefs, and non-art creative types. Keep your eyes and ears peeled for the exciting things I’ve got planned for the future!
Jonescast Episode #10
I spoke with JP Reuer back in October. He is the chair of the Applied Crafts and Design graduate program that is a joint effort between the Oregon College of Art and Craft and the Pacific Northwest College of Art. Hailing from North Carolina, JP has been guiding the new program since 2009. We spent time talking about what design/build means, the type of students who are attracted to the program, and expectations once they graduate. It seems to me that within the context of design/build there is a connection or closeness to an audience that provides a working relationship “with” and not “for.”
