Name: 10 Years of Flux Projects with Founder Louis Corrigan by fluxprojects
Duration: 42 min 58 s
Description: Louis Corrigan reflects on his founding of Flux Projects 10 years ago, the influence of the organization in Atlanta over that time, and the impact that supporters can have in the local arts ecosystem.

Artist Rachel Parish reads a creation story written for the land upon which Atlanta now sits and considers how the geology of place impacts the social structures that build upon it.  

This text accompanies her work Emergence, which builds monuments to the four spring heads buried beneath Downtown Atlanta.  By illuminating the “birthplaces” of Atlanta’s waterways, Emergence will offer the public the opportunity to collectively consider the power of the natural ecology upon which Atlanta has been built and the continued presence of the life-springs that support the land upon which the city’s residents live their lives.

Artist Hannah Palmer worked with sound producer Santiago Páramo to create a soundtrack for Ghost Pools, her public art installation exploring our history with public swimming.  The project remembers two pools in East Point, GA, that became battlegrounds over integration and were eventually abandoned.
