267: The state of wood firing education with John Neely, Matthew Blakely, Pascal Geoffroy, Sandy Lockwood, and Linda Lid

Today on the Tales of a Red Clay Rambler Podcast I have a panel
on education featuring John Neely, Matthew Blakely, Pascal
Geoffroy, Sandy Lockwood, and Linda Lid. The panelists
discuss how they came to learn wood firing and the current status
of the firing technique in educational institutions in Australia,
the United States, and Western Europe. To see examples of the
panelists work and find out more about each artist visit
www.culturalconfluencewoodfiresymposium.com/artists. The lecture
was given at the Cultural Confluence Wood Fire Symposium, held in
Helena, MT in October 2018.


 


Hey Red Clay Rambler fans, I want to take a minute to talk to you
about our sustaining membership program. As we head into 2019, I
want to appeal to you directly to help us meet our new goal of
having 120 patrons by April 1st. I’m asking you to make a $5
pledge today at patreon.com/redclayrambler. That’s only $1.25 per
episode to help me document the field of ceramics. This new goal
will help me record interviews with Canadian artists on my
upcoming trip in April. If you prefer you can make a one-time
donation through the Pay Pal portal at
www.talesofaredclayrambler.com. If you have been thinking about
getting involved don’t wait any longer. Every dollar helps, and
no donation is too small. Thanks again for supporting the
podcast!
