A rare repeat guest on the show, David Horvitz (artist, friend, and the face of mood disorder) walks the 7th Avenue Garden in Los Angeles with host Matthew Chase-Daniel to talk about his works in Reclaiming the Future at the Vladem Contemporary Museum in Santa Fe as well as his Wikipedia-insertion artworks, the earth and the stars, Sayre Gomez, Mission Burritos, volunteer plants in empty lots and compost piles, Sister Corita Kent, Bouillabaisse, seashells, rebar and rubble, and the beach.

Santa Fe Mayor Michael Garcia invites host Matthew Chase-Daniel into his office in City Hall where they chat about his goals as Mayor, our arts economy, local cultural values, tourism, the possible future of the Warehouse 21 building, the Midtown Campus, Growth, Water, affordable housing, the hunger among visitors to participate in authentic experiences that don’t exist elsewhere, and and how it is important to work together across Northern New Mexico with our diversity of towns, cities, and tribal communities.

Imamura chats with Matthew Chase-Daniel about her artwork, which draws upon techniques and ideas learned at the Institute of American Indian Arts where she was a student, studying bead work with Terri Greeves over 20 years ago. Raised in Japan, Imamura was drawn to the land and culture of New Mexico from a young age and worked to make the journey here. Now back in Japan, her artwork is rich with tradition and stories from her Japanese culture, along with histories of nuclear contamination, the bomb, manga, and popular world cultural references.
