In Residence: An Experimental Think Tank: Wise Panic

Over two weeks, three luminaries met and exchanged ideas as part of our Wise Panic Residency, which included workshops and readings - all addressing the question: 'What is a meaningful response when crisis feels like it's everywhere?' The last event of Wise Panic is tonight!
Join Rhetorician Dr. Ira Allen for a reading from his book, Panic Now? Tools For Humanizing, at Morganstern's Books April 30th at 6pm.
Up Next: Poetry meets Jazz
Indiana's New York Minute

Poet Raisa Tolchinsky is a visiting assistant professor at IU, following a move from New York, and Jazz Band Leader Hannah Marks got her bachelors at IU’s Jacobs School, before moving to Brooklyn. She was recently awarded a commission by the Jazz Gallery in NYC to premiere a new, 75-minute piece of music in November, and wanted to return to Bloomington to spend time composing at The Hundredth Hill.
Raisa’s most recent and much lauded book of poetry ‘Glass Jaw,’ is a Dantean exploration of her time in New York training as a boxer (yes, a boxer), and as she’s interested in what jazz musicians call “fear training,”, creating public poetry projects rooted in improvisation and accompaniment, we thought the two might have alot to talk about while in residence.
Featuring original, upcycled, and finely-crafted residences, unique performance spaces, and a world class recording studio space, The Hundredth Hill offers artists and others a quiet, inspiring retreat in the rolling green woodlands of Southern Indiana. Make your way to The Hundredth Hill to create, think, reconnect with your work, and make progress on world-changing projects. Explore our residences, recording studio, workshop, and performance spaces and reserve a day-long or weeks-long retreat for yourself or your organization today.
Artists create and innovate for the benefit of us all.
The Hundredth Hill is not only a retreat space, but we also operate a 501(c)3 non-profit organization which provides incubation space to the community of artists, as well as supporting outreach programs and arts equity initiatives. Your generosity is the catalyst to creativity and may be tax-deductible.
