A coffee chat with Professor Juana Goergen. She is a poet, a professor at DePaul, and a community educator. One of my interviewees for my Vocalo Storytelling piece.
I’m currently working on two projects that revolve around sneakers and the concept of what a “sneakerhead” is. It’s been really interesting talking to people and hearing their opinions and personal reasons for collecting sneakers. Also, I’ve seen some pretty dope shoes, such as these. I took these pictures at House of Hoops on State Street.

Third interview completed! This is one of the interviews I have enjoyed the most. Such an amazing family from Mexico City who attend the program Proyecto Odisea together. Family definitely plays an important role in education.
Love+Radio’s/Snap Judgment’s Nick van der Kolk food-processed my brain over skype. My mind was opened to the endless amount of approaches to producing radio; endless ways to experiment and still tell a good story. Also, I feel like I learned more about interviewing in last week’s 20-minute exercise then in all my days of trying to produce on my own. Excited to put it to use this week — with five interviews scheduled.
I’m very excited to have the opportunity to interview Amy Thomas Elder for my short audio documentary on #TheOdysseyProject #ProyectoOdisea #Chicago for Vocalo’s Storytelling Workshop.
Meet Amy→In January, she was featured in Lifestyles as one of the most remarkable woman of Chicago at the Chicago Tribune: http://articles.chicagotribune.com/2013-01-27/features/ct-tribu-remarkable-elder-20130127_1_adult-literacy-center-liberal-arts-program-illinois-humanities-council
Some notes from a Skype visit by Nick van der Kolk today…
Finally, my audio piece on #ProyectoOdisea #Chicago for the Vocalo Storytelling Workshop has a direction. Played with a first draft of my script, recorded it, and voilà. At least my interviewees list is ready. Now, time to work on it.
