Ideas for Creative Exploration (ICE)
2012-2013 Project Grants
Invitation for Letter of Inquiry

Ideas for Creative Exploration (ICE) is an interdisciplinary initiative for advanced research in the arts at the University of Georgia. ICE invites Letters of Inquiry from UGA faculty and students for projects to be initiated during the 2012-2013 academic year. Selected inquiries will be invited to submit a full proposal and then be considered for an ICE Project Grant.

Projects should be consistent with the ICE mission:

ICE is a catalyst for innovative, interdisciplinary creative projects, advanced research and critical discourse in the arts, and for creative applications of technologies, concepts, and practices found across disciplines. It is a collaborative network of faculty, students, and community members from all disciplines of the visual and performing arts in addition to other disciplines in the humanities and sciences. ICE enables all stages of creative activity, from concept and team formation through production, documentation, and dissemination of research.

Letter of Inquiry should be no more 500 words and sent via email to:
ice@ideasforcreativeexploration.com

Please include the following information:

• Title and brief description of proposed project.

• List of proposed participants (include titles and affiliations).

• Impact of project and potential for future development.

Saturday, May 12 at 8 PM

Lo Yo Yo Stuff Records is pleased to present an evening of the finest, freest improvised music Athens has to offer, and very special guests from New York. Trumpeter Peter Evans and saxophonist Travis Laplante are prominent members of the NYC avant jazz community. Evans is an astonishing voice on a demanding instrument. According to Evan Parker, he is “at the center of the next generation of players.” Laplante will be touring behind a new record out on Skirl entitled “Heart Protector.” The Chicago Tribune simply claims that his music “might change your life, indefinably.” Each will perform a solo set.

Brooklyn-based drummer/composer Thomas Crane will be joining composer/guitarist Dan Nettles for a set of improvised originals based on the life cycle of fireflies, using prepared guitars, amplifiers, and found objects. Locals Jeramy Lamanno and Kris Deason, drummer and guitarist for the mighty Garbage Island, will present a new collaboration. And multi-instrumentalist Killick will guide the audience through a three-part journey, channeling equal parts physicality, emotionality, intellect, and spiritual openness. Come out and support musicians who are pushing boundaries to create an exciting and inspiring experience.

Paintings and sculptures have been created from literature and stories and poems have been inspired by the visual arts. The relationship betwen word and image is one of the mysteries these writers will be addressing. The students of the creative writing workshop will present brief readings basd on individual works from GMOA’s collection.
