RFYL Episode – ForeverEverEP213
We’ve taken down another month and made it through another work week. Time remains to be linear and an invention. But don’t worry, we’ll continue to not think about the deeper meaning of things by playing songs that have different meanings based on your situation – when you heard them, how you’re feeling, and how to attribute them to your daily life. If this is just too philosophical for you, don’t worry, this is all I have in me to type.
Grab a podcast or don’t. It’s your life. But I recommend it. They won’t be around forever.

Into The Blue – The Joy Formidable
Like A Ghost – Ian Blurton’s Future Now

Maybe I didn’t deliver that entirely, but at least these tracks are something to write home to. Even though I don’t leave my home, I don’t know why I would write to it in the first place since my only loved one there is my air conditioner. Speaking of which, I should probably go hook that up…

Sometimes you just need to let the playlist decide itself. I’ve been asked a few times lately why the show hasn’t been as heavy all the way throughout and I decided.. well, let’s just keep doing what I’m doing anyway, because I barely talk to anyone and don’t feel like registering that as an actual comment.
Lots of random crazy stuff on this episode, though – you should REALLY think about picking up some music. Especially from any of the bands below:

The Lunchbox Interview: Amy Ash, curator of “it comes in waves”
Art addresses emotion, thoughts, reflection and so many things that are often beyond words. I had the pleasure of speaking with Amy Ash, a visual artist and the guest curator of an upcoming exhibition called it comes in waves.
From the exhibit’s description:
As we emerge from a global pandemic, the exhibit it comes in waves observes the nature of absence through the work of seven contemporary artists: Emily Critch, Chantal Khoury, Adriana Kuiper & Ryan Suter, Lou Sheppard, KC Wilcox, and Florence Yee. it comes in waves refers to the sensation of becoming awash in the haze of emotions, memories, and associations that result from grief, loss, and other confrontations of absence. Presented in both the East and West galleries, the works included in it comes in waves hold space for contemplation and the quiet construction of meaning, while boldly facing the uncanny sensation that something is lost or missing. From climate devastation and personal loss, to broken expectations, this group exhibition explores grief as a means of understanding what we value.
The exhibit opens on April 29 at 5pm at the UNB Art Centre (9 Bailey Drive), and will be on view in person from April 29 to June 17, and online. Admission is free to members of the public.
