<p>Elan Rodman is a fashion professional with a flair for the past. He founded the <a href="https://www.instagram.com/thelostandfoundmuseum/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">@thelostandfoundmuseum</a> on Instagram, a space that connects sportswear history with design and cultural histories. While a graduate student at Parsons School of Design in their M.A Fashion Studies program, he explored the possibilities of connecting fashion history with art and theory as a way to understand the effects fashion has on society. His interest in vintage clothing became a focal point, as his thesis focused on the history of taboo, seen through vintage t-shirt graphics and phraseology.</p> <p><br>Today, he is the Footwear & Packaging Specialist for the Reebok Archive in Boston, Massachusetts, where he combines his passion for footwear fashion history to help maintain Reebok’s rich legacy in sporting culture. </p> <p><br></p> <p>In this episode, Elan and I talk about his genuine and unconventional path to building a career in fashion, how he got started as a vintage dealer and the importance of pushing through rocky terrain to pursue your dreams.</p>

<p><a href="https://www.instagram.com/adamtrunell/">Adam Trunell</a> is an LA-based filmmaker. In the past, Adam's been a writer, producer, and editor, depending on the job. Eventually, by necessity, he had to do all those things at once, including camera. That, plus the need to make anything into something, is where you end up with "filmmaker." In this conversation we focus on Adam's feature documentary The Row that he shot and produced on his own in Skid Row, Los Angeles during Covid-19. We chat about unraveling typical expectations of community and the nonprofit harm reduction organization called <a href="https://www.thesidewalkproject.org/">The Sidewalk Project</a>. Below is Adam's written bio for this project:</p> <p><br></p> <p>"The first time I heard someone cry on the streets of Skid Row, I was stunned, realizing it was only the first time. </p> <p><br></p> <p>The sound should be an anthem in a place like this, its chorus rising every night with the moon. Instead it sang unremarkably among the silent, sleeping bodies curled on the sidewalk—impossible in repose—falling like a whisper on deaf ears. </p> <p><br></p> <p>That was my first year in Skid Row; eight since and I know better. Tears come at the breaking point, and if you’re already here, you’re past broke. By the here and now, you found a way to deal and people to deal with. </p> <p><br></p> <p>We co-exist in Skid Row, home of the eccentric, troubled, corrupted, enlightened, exemplary, and unhinged. It cuts a complicated beauty whose diversity is unknown in any modern city, anywhere. I keep friends who have roofs and walls and friends without; friends with addiction disorders and friends without; friends who make victims and those who’d been one. </p> <p><br></p> <p>None of us got the same story; all of us share the same space."</p>

<p><a href="https://www.youtube.com/chrissstttiiine?themeRefresh=1" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">Christine Mai Nguyen</a> (b. 1988 Fountain Valley, CA) is an artist living and working in Los Angeles. With a background in film studies and new media, Christine has been creating journalistic video diaries for the past 15 years. At the recommendation of a therapist she picked up <a href="https://ceramrap.com/collections/all-avail-products-in-preferred-order" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">clay</a> in an effort to find peace in a tactile, off screen pursuit. She found comfort in the beginner’s mind of a new medium. </p> <p><br></p> <p>I’ve been following and loving her soothing video content on YouTube for 10+ years, and was excited she agreed to pop on for an episode. In this one, we discuss how she got started on Youtube, how she’s maintained it all of these years, her start to DJ’ing and ceramics, how creativity can spring from both organic and structured spaces, and how switching mediums to avoid burnout is often a good idea. </p> <p><br></p> <p>You can see her show "On Returning" on view until September 1st at <a href="https://www.thisisumi.co/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">Umico Gallery</a>.</p>
