Because You Suck! Another Question-Filled Show – Episode 59

Summary: It's the last rapid-question episode and, finally, it's Tony's turn to ask Rick and Rob. And, wow, look what happens when you actually spend time thinking about the questions. Well played, Tony, well played. We run a bit longer on this episode but we'll be back under an hour next time. But we really wanted to give today's questions and answers the respect and thought that they deserve. Here are the questions: Which one photography from history do you wish you had taken? Which event, since the invention of the camera, would you have loved to have photographed? Which friend or family member has had the biggest impact on your photography? Who is your favorite artist of all time - from any field other than photography? What is your most important personality trait when it comes to being a photographer? What is the one topic that will send you into a rage when it comes to photography? What have you gotten out of doing the podcast? Bonus question from Rob today: to date, what's been your favorite episode so far? So, from wanton mediocrity that sets Rob off, from choral music to acid rock, and a lot more bizarre stuff, listen to the final set of "what makes the guys tick?"   Our Artists Jessica Harrison proposes a multi-directional and pervasive model of skin as a space in which body and world mingle. Working with this moving space between artist/maker and viewer, she draws on the active body in both making and interpreting sculpture to unravel imaginative touch and proprioceptive sensation in sculptural practice. In this way, Harrison re-describes the body in sculpture through the skin, offering an alternative way of thinking about the body beyond a binary tradition of inside and outside. (from her web site) Pete Eckert is a photographer who, originally, was a carpenter until he lost his sight due to Retinitis Pigmentosa. Once blind, he turned to drawing and then photography. His is an amazing story and definitely worth reading. His works have been featured in Playboy Magazine as well as numerous galleries.
