LOUISVILLE IS READY!

A creat ive chamber of commerce based in Louisville, KY, IDEAS was founded in 2013, and promotes art ists as agents of change in civic and corporate sett ings while serving as a creat ive catalyst - enabling Louisville to move forward while succeeding socially, culturally, and economically.

We are redefining what a chamber of commerce can be and do in the 21st Century by focusing on creat ivity as the fuel of innovat ion and people as Louisville?s greatest asset.

The Who?s Louisville? Project (#wholou) is a two-month dialogue to further cult ivate a network of allies, to have frank discussions and to promote inclusive pract ices for creat ing the best Louisville possible.

In 1987, before downtown Louisvil le re-emerged as an active business district, a small group of artists saw an entrepreneurial opportunity for a new kind of gallery and moved into an empty building on West Main Street in the middle of what was to become a re-vitalized commercial corridor of the city.

Zephyr Gallery began as an ever-changing artist-run cooperative intent on building both infrastructure and enthusiasm for local art through innovative exhibit ions with the primary vision of providing individual artists control over the presentation of their work.

One can map the expansion of Louisvil le?s downtown with Zephyr Gallery?s relocation trail. Zephyr became a catalyst for new retail enterprises moving into adjacent buildings forcing the gallery to move f ive times in response to rising rents. In 1997 Zephyr relocated for the f inal t ime and purchased the building at 610 East Market Street where it currently operates.

The Louisvil le art scene has grown and changed dramatically since it was established. Today Louisvil le boasts a thriving community of artists, curators, and collectors as well as galleries, museums and other non-prof it organizations featuring work by artists from all over the globe. Works by Louisvil le-based artists, in turn, have been exhibited in other

cit ies often the result of efforts and talents being nurtured at Zephyr Gallery.

After 26 years as the second longest running artist cooperative in the country, Zephyr Gallery has a new purpose. The mission of Zephyr Gallery is to serve as a platform to incubate, advocate, and facilitate innovative ideas in art and artistic practices in the region.

In January 2014, Zephyr launched an ongoing Project series. Each Project?s exhibit ion is developed by an invited curator and can include collaborations with universit ies, colleges, and cultural institutions. As a multidisciplinary exhibit ion space and project laboratory for contemporary art and experimental methodologies, Zephyr is specif ically interested in providing a forum

for art currently being created in Kentucky, southern Il l inois, Indiana, and Ohio. In the past year, Zephyr?s Project series has invited 6 dif ferent regional curators ? Suzanne Weaver, Susan Jarosi, Dima Stakovsky, Yasmeen Siddiqui, Theo Edmonds, Josh Miller - and exhibited pieces from 59 artists working in the region, including: Louisvil le, KY - Cincinnati, OH - Lexington, KY- Bloomington, Indiana - Murray, Kentucky - Indianapolis, IN - Danville, KY - Columbus, IN - New, Albany, IN.

For February/March of 2015, Zephyr Gallery will become IDEAS- a creative chamber of commerce and entrepreneurial engine. As an artist-centric organization, IDEAS is deeply engaged in the process of helping to develop our city by working at the nexus of culture, business and inclusive polit ics. This is the sixth project in the series entit led PROJECT 6: Who?s Louisville? With more than 40+ events, Zephyr and IDEAS invite you to participate in the networking events, roundtable discussions, and cultural events at the gallery. Engage in the conversation at home through social media, Skype, and live stream webcasts.

IDEAS monthly MIX+PIVOT took place on February 3, 2015 in its temporary home, Zephyr Gallery located in the Nulu area. This allowed for members, partners and allies of IDEAS to learn about the work currently being done by presenters and artist in residence Man Bartlett as well as work that will be done within Project 6?s two month duration.

Joey Yates, the Kentucky Museum of Arts and Craft?s Associate Curator, spoke about their newest exhibit, Simon Leigh: Crop Rotations. ?When I f irst came to Kentucky Arts and Crafts we pinpointed artists that we thought would really hold up our mission of trying to f ind work that combined traditional craft and contemporary art,? Yates explained. ?The reason that she is so signif icant to me in this intersection of art in craft is she looks at craft technique and craft practices almost exclusively. She will travel and she's very much a research artists. She will go to

indigenous cultures are stil l practicing craft activity that they have been doing a long time and she will look primarily at women and things they make and build.? The exhibit runs at KMAC from February 6 until April 5.

Representing Theatre [502] was Gil Reyes, the co-artistic director. ?Our mission is recent and relevant theater that speaks to Louisvil le audiences and gets you talking,? Reyes said. ?Great cit ies have more than one great theater. We have so many theaters bringing in classic works, things that audiences just love, but there was this litt le piece missing: Plays that have premiered elsewhere and needed a second, third, or fourth production. Plays that specif ically talked to a creative community, that talked to the type of of people we are trying to attract to Louisvil le weren't being done here because they were too risky.? Reyes highlighted Mr. Burns, a Post-Electric Play, which he described as a

?post-apocalyptic Simpsons musical.? It has previously been shown at the Woolly Mammoth Theatre Company in Washington, D.C. and at Playwrights Horizons in New York City. ?We felt l ike we could do work that could challenge local actors, directors, designers to do better, to do more. challenge our audiences to a degree too. Bring you stuff that is going to make you really think that is going to comment on and creative conversation on how our world is dif ferent. We love doing something small that is going on and doing a big conversation around it.? Mr. Burns, a Post-Electric play will be showing at the Clif ton center February 20, 21, 23, 27, and 28 at 8pm.

Stacy Bailey-Ndiaye, founder of Bridge Kids International, was the third presenter. Bridge Kids International can be found in 6 countries and serves as a global nonprof it organization focused on young people of Africa as well as the African diaspora from ages 13 to 25. ?We help them to create their own solutions to community problems.? With focus areas including economic development, education, girls rights, and cultural production and relationship building, young people involved can work to benefit their community through helping out themselves. ?When I say we are people centered that means we are doing work, but people are at the very center of all of that," she says. Locally Bridge Kids help the Louisvil le community with events including the African Heritage Festival and Roots and Wings. They also created help for refugees in Louisvil le. ?We found in some of our work that there was bullying going on in some of the schools of incoming refugees from Africa.

M+P features pitches by artists, startups and organizations, with the goal of building networks, synthesizing resources and

changing normative expectations.

The young people in our group created First Friends of Louisvil le, where they are going to welcome every refugee between 14 and 25 and go to their home the f irst month they are here and give them a welcome basket to say 'we are glad you are here.'? Stacy and team are also pairing up with the Parks department to renovate an abandoned building located on 5th and Kentucky Street. The project, t it led Our Place at Ben Washer Park will have a thinking lab where young people can dream up project ideas as well as a global cafe, gathering place, and more.

Ernesto Ramos was once a software developer at Bellarmine University, but now serves as one of the innovative thinkers behind Switcher Studio. ?One of the things that appealed to me with this company and this project was the idea of making content creation a lot easier for people that produce content for Youtube, Ustream, or any of those places.? Eyes lit up as this game-changer video software?s simplicity and effectiveness was presented. ?What we've put together is a product that allows you to connect wirelessly four iPads or iPhones and basically lets you turn them into a TV studio. Once they're connected [via wif i] you can switch between cameras and broadcast that image live to anyone on the Internet and at the same time record it. In the past you would have to buy a really expensive computer, a couple expenses cameras, run wires in between the cameras, have a solid Internet connection and all that stuff . So we've simplif ied the process and made it easy for anyone to just pick up your iPad or iPhone, connect them and broadcast,? Ernesto said. Specks include wireless multi-camera live streaming, l ive streaming and recording at the same time, insert images and overlay images in stream, even share the screen of a Mac with the main switcher. For a great example of Switcher Studio make sure to tune into IDEAS livestream session each Wednesday morning at 8am and check out our YouTube channel.

IDEAS is currently hosting artist in residence Man Bartlett, a social media artist from New York City. This MIX+PIVOT was a way to not only present his work but also a good way to inform the community of his work and research being done with Thrive365 on the topic of diabetes. ?Part of what is happening now is I'm interpreting the information I'm getting from people online regarding diabetes. Its something I personally had very litt le awareness of before I started the project and very litt le personal experience.? This includes an art exhibit on the second story of Zephyr gallery and a survey to help better inform Man of how people with diabetes use resources to help live their l ives. ?Because a lot of my background is in the Internet I decided to develop this online survey which is l ike using a lot of the vernacular of using the Internet art and kind of goofy but fun but also very serious,? he says of this decision. Read more about his work in Louisvil le on page 9.

Stacey Reason pitched TEDxUofL, where currently almost 300 people are involved - whether it be presenting or attending. TEDx events are community organized independent events used to excite conversation about local issues that need to be brought alive.

?A lot of people ask why I'm doing this and why I?m spending my time and energy and money and f inding resources to do this and I answer with their slogan: ideas worth spreading,? Stacey said of her involvement. ?The theme is ?interconnected?. People often think of this as a collaboration and I want to challenge this notion and say it 's not just that. That it 's much more than that. This event is about looking at the idea of interconnected and about the underlying system. About actually thinking what we think interconnected is, our own faulty mental models, our own cause and effect paradigm that we often operate under and really challenge that idea.?

One point she brought across is how to get value and progress from these conversations. ?It 's all about energy and ideas and innovation and thinking forwardly so we're not thinking about a one day event. TEDxUofL is about looking into the future as a kind of jumping off point.? TEDxUofL is bound to bring excitement to Louisvil le and will be held February 28th at the planetarium as well as simulcasted at other university buildings. Furthermore it will be posted on the TEDx website for future viewing.

MIX+PIVOT @ Zephyr Gallery served as a great start to Project 6: Whose Louisvil le and a great kickoff for IDEAS projects to come during these next two months.

Each week, the Who's Louisvil le?" webcast will l ivestream from Zephyr Gallery, featuring guests co-curated by IDEAS and LEO Weekly, from across Louisvil le's major industry secors.

The questions are inspired by Ben Franklin's "Junto" - with the goal of promoting mutual improvement through discussion and debate.

View the full webcast by vising page 8.

Theo Edmonds: Who is Louisvil le right now? John Shaw-Woo: Louisvil le to me is a growing city with a lot of energy, a lot of entrepreneurs. I think the Mayor is doing a great job of

growing the city. Louisvil le has the potential to be a metroplex, which is very exciting. Dr. Shiao Woo: I think all of us are Louisvil le. It takes a

community to build a great city, so all of us are who are participating in making Louisvil le better, we are Louisvil le.

Theo Edmonds: What do you see as some of Louisvil le?s biggest challenges to growth right now?

John Shaw-Woo: Hindrance to change is a big challenge, but I think that once we can overcome that we will see a lot of development, a lot of exciting things that go on

here. Theo Edmonds: What have you seen or heard about in world events in the last couple of months that you think Louisvil le could learn some lessons from? Dr. Shiao Woo: Two things come to mind. One of course is the oil price that dropped.

A lot of us are happy about it, but they also point out that the economy needs to be diversif ied. Obviously as consumers we generally gain, but we look at oil companies, estates that are heavy on fracking of oil, and of course look at the oil exporting countries, that?s a big hit. If you depend on one thing, the economy is never going to be long-lasting. The other thing is we can?t help when we turn on the TV, ISIS, it just goes to show that extremism really is harmful to humankind. It doesn?t matter what ideology that is the excuse for the extremism. It?s not good in the long run.

Theo Edmonds: Have either one of you read something in the last bit that really impacted you. Maybe even caused you to ask new questions about your personal l ife or the world or anything that you think listeners would like to know about? Dr. Shiao Woo: Since I?m a doctor I?m going to look at the health issues. One of the biggest news nowadays is the measles outbreak. It points out to me that there are suff icient false signs in immunization and the struggle is a much bigger one. It is really individual right or self ishness vs the greater good. It is also maybe a struggle between a moral issue and a legal issue. Legally you have all the right to not have immunization but morally infectious disease can spread to others. Look at ebola. If we had a vaccine for ebola and suddenly ebola appears in this country in great quantit ies, if you have it you have a high chance of dying, you cost a lot of healthcare dollars trying to solve you, and you could infect others.

Theo Edmonds: I?d like to stay in health care for a bit since you brought it up because both of you are engaged in very dif ferent ways in helping Louisvil le to live healthier l ives and to age well in place. This particular week one of the questions we are exploring is how does one age well in place. If you look at the statistics if the demographic of Louisvil le continue at their present rate, over 50% of our population here in the city will be age 65 or older by the year 2040. That combined with the aging and health care industry being such a prevalent part of our economy, I think it represents some unique challenges for us as a cit izenry, but also as some unique opportunities on the business front. I was wondering if you could both maybe from your own point of views address that.John Shaw-Woo: My background comes from healthier eating practices. What I?ve seen over the last 3 years is there?s really a need for a change in individuals mindset in regards to their nutrit ion. Chronic il lness, which plays a huge part in Kentucky can be prevented or reversed through healthier eating practices. Kentucky is a great state because they push a lot of locally grown fruits and vegetables and so on but what you do with those items is very important. Access to healthier meal options and so on will actually change the landscape in the future of the health of Kentucky. Dr. Shiao Woo: From a physician?s point of view I think I look at it in a broader sense. The f irst thing you have is good genes, which unfortunately you have no choice in that. But the environment or how one lives one?s life does play a signif icant part. Nutrit ion is one part. In general I think balance and avoidance of extremes. Smoking is undoubtedly bad and is one of the biggest problems in Kentucky. Alcohol in moderation is f ine but in excess it?s no good. Obesity is certainly bad but, in fact, as you grow older being too thin is not necessarily the healthiest thing. Being in the normal weight range is actually better for you. Now in activity, this is a big issue. One should just move around. Not just exercise or work out but move around. To me really the secret of eternal youth is a good night sleep. Americans in large are not really good sleepers and that I think is trivial because sleep is our natural way of healing on a daily basis.

Theo Edmonds: I was wondering for each of you what you think the relationship between art and business, art and science might be now or in the future. Dr. Shiao Woo: In the f ield of medicine these are intertwined, especially today. The practice of medicine is based partly on science, but science is incomplete. That is our analysis or guidance that tell us what currently is best. But that is the art of medicine. You have to persuade someone to do the right thing for himself or herself . That has always been the art of medicine. Then of course you can?t get away from money, which is the business part. Medicine is of course a business. John Shaw-Woo: In regards to art and business I would say the same thing, that they are intertwined. I think that when they come together it creates an experience that allows individuals to expand their horizons. I think art challenges the mind and gives the ability to understand, so they are all intertwined.

Theo Edmonds: Do you think artists have a role to play in that [developing a city]? John Shaw-Woo: Definitely. I think Louisvil le is a phenomenal city for innovation. Ironically I met with the city last week in regards to their vitalization project and was completely amazed with their support for social entrepreneurs. The city is very supportive of innovation and I think you can see that.

Theo Edmonds: What are the foundations of a good partnership and good collaboration: Dr. Shiao Woo: Common goals and trust. The best situation in any endeavor is win-win. And you have not only set goals but a set process. I?m a timeline kind of person to make sure things are going alright so you do need someone who?s a litt le bit OCD about things and to make sure things will move along.

Theo Edmonds: What artists have you all seen that has really impacted you outside of Louisvil le? John Shaw-Woo: My favorite picture is The Night Watch in Amsterdam [Rembrandt]. I think that moment when I f irst saw it really opened my mind. The colors were so vivid like it was just painted and it was just so amazing to see how did they create those colors during that period and they?re so relevant today. Today, I stil l think that?s the most vibrant painting I?ve ever seen. With art and all this change going on in the city I think it?s really important for all of us to realize one of the keys to success is inclusion and so within the arts we need to see representation of what the city is made of. That way it builds that connection with the experience of arts. But I also think that cit izens should put forth an effort to seek those experiences. With building up programs there has to be input from those in the community. Aaron Yarmuth: One of the things I l ike about the LEO and what I l ike to think we do for the community is exposing whether it be yourself or others to things going on in the community.

Theo Edmonds: What does Louisvil le need right now? Dr. Shiao Woo: I think Louisvil le will continue in the infusion of new blood. There?s people and talent that will come to Louisvil le to enrich the city. It is partially our job to make the city attractive enough for people with talent to want to come here. Aaron Yarmuth: With constant infusion of new people with dif ferent backgrounds that?s where great ideas come from and where creativity comes from. While I don?t want Louisvil le to turn into an enormous city you do need that crit ical mass and various backgrounds and that experience to lead to more creativity. John Shaw-Woo: In order to grow the city you actually have to have diversity inclusion and you have to have an increased education. So I think with more degrees, more graduates, more technical school graduation people will grow to higher wage-earning positions. Then it would create that middle class that Louisvil le needs. If each one of us focuses on improving themselves through whatever means, education, training programs, and so on that would help in the growth of Louisvil le. Theo Edmonds: The good news is I think all of these things are being worked on by a lot of us in the city.

"One of the init ial things from my research that jumped out at me - that in 2012 - there were 29.1mill ion people with diabetes, Type I and II, and 86 mill ion people with pre-diabetes. In trying to wrap my head around those numbers I created this piece ... if that piece were on for an entire year, the red light would blink 29.1 mill ion times and the yellow light would blink 86 mill ion times representing each individual person who had diabetes or pre-diabetes."

ARTIST MAN BARTLETTMan Barlett?s work manifests in many forms ? from 24-hour performances to the visualization of data. He works to identify strands that manifest in contemporary social and cultural settings, including inequality and consumerism, to create a dialogue, often about things that people don?t talk about. Bartlett said he ?wants to hold himself to a level of accountability as an artist.? That an artist?s response to what is happening should be ?personal and universal in a way that?s honest.?

Bartlett is in Louisvil le from New York, doing a 1-month residency with XLerateHealth, working on Thrive365, which creates food scores for those with diabetes and pre-diabetes. He also setup a clinic in the 2nd f loor of Zephyr Gallery, where he is creating awareness and conducting research about the diabetes epidemic in the United States.

Bartlett 's residency was organized through XLerateART, a project created by IDEAS and Residency Unlimited, supported by an "Our Town" grant from the National Endowment for the Arts. Visit xlerateart.com for more information.

In speaking about his work around the topic of diabetes, Bartlett explained that he created a piece right when he arrived in Louisvil le, when he was ?Thinking about how you visualize data, in its simplest form. The project I?m working on in some sense is about diabetes and diabetes epidemic in the US. One of the init ial things from my research that jumped out at me- that in 2012- there were 29.1mill ion people with diabetes, Type I and II, and 86 mill ion people with pre-diabetes. In trying to wrap my head around those numbers ? if that piece were on for an entire

year, the red light would blink 29.1 mill ion times and the yellow light would blink 86 mill ion times representing each individual person who had diabetes or pre-diabetes. I keep it on my desk as I?m working as reminder? trying to ground the abstract sense of the data and information that is around us in a way in a visual way that I can relate to.?

The LEO Weekly invited Bartlett to takeover their twitter feed for a day on January 30, 2015. Bartlett explained that, ?I approached it in trying to talk to people about diabetes and trying to get a sense of who is out there talking about it. I was really surprised to see how heart felt people were, and will ing to talk publicly about how the condition effected their l ives.? Bartlett said that as an artist, the way he is approaching the project is by asking, ?How do people understand diabetes in popular culture??

?The things I keep hearing time and time again is it?s not just a fat disease, it?s not just a problem of people with poor diets,? said Bartlett. ?There are lots of things that lead to the dif ferent types of diabetes you can have.?
