Ep. 35 - Cathartic Consumption, Capacity for Consumption, & K-Pop!

Ep. 35 - Cathartic Consumption, Capacity for Consumption, & K-Pop!
The third episode of Season is the second part of our look at artistic expression. In this episode, Kara, Maja and Bruce talk about the consumption of Art(s) of all types, and how an autistic consumption may (or may not) differ from a neurotypical consumption. In this wide-ranging discussion, they bring unique perspectives to their own consumption of art, as well as acknowledging that their consumption habits are very different from their creative aesthetics. They also discussed the joy of repetition, and how we often search for a reflection of our wants and desires, as well as our own identification in the art we consume, but also that we need to be aware of our cognitive capacity to consume a new, or deeper, piece of art.
Tangents: Some of the tangents in this episode include K-Pop, differing experiences of live performances, and interoception/self-insights into our own capacities.
Honourable Mention: “Empire of Normality" by Robert Chapman. www.plutobooks...

56:39 Salon style display! I love that way of displaying art. I do my art and posters like that in my apartment (partly because my walls are white and I can't stand that). You can fit more art in that way :D
There's a couple rooms at the Art Gallery of Ontario that are *full* of Cornelius Krieghoff paintings, and they're all of the same subject matter. I got a bit overwhelmed in those rooms, and yelled about it once I got back to my people.

I noticed Bruce mentioned Robert Chapman's book, Empire of Normality. I;m reading that at the moment, but bit by bit because there;'s a lot to think about.
Sorry it took me a while to catch up with this one, I'm so busy. It was another great conversation, thanks for doing. (I am AKA Traci K)

Thanks, Traci! I can't wait to read it, myself.
