I am looking for readers to read Project 2025
?
I have started a video project where I videotape people reading Project 2025. I did this for the Mueller report 2019. Having people read Project 2025 is part social discourse and part performance art showing democracy in action as voters explore an important issue.?
I am happy to go to a location and record a few people at a time.
Please share and contact me if you would like to help.
Thank you?

Parts Work Group starting in September.
We have an opening in an online Parts Work therapy group in September.? The group is geared for expanding creativity and self-expression: . This is a support and accountability group for artists and all people looking to lean into creative identity. The work focuses on Jungian shadow work, and is a powerful place to discuss career moves, art projects, or even creative risks in personal relationships. You do not need to be a full time or paid artist to join the group - we are all creative minds, and the group is meant to support the dive into that persona. The work centers largely on Voice Dialogue, which is a form of parts work. Parts Work emphasizes the value of the various, distinct voices inside us.? How does the "critic" in you relate to the "impulsive one"?? How does the "practical mind" relate to the "eccentric self"? We will - in the group context - explore speaking from one of these voices at a time, allowing the edges of personality to be expressed without shame. The group is made of about 5-7 people. I am a clinical psychologist, filmmaker and author, and one focus for me is integrating artistic life with practical career choices.? I look forward to exploring cross-career options with you. Please feel free to reach me at ilana.simons@... if you'd like to talk more about the work.? The work can be covered by insurance. Ilana Simons Bio: Ilana Simons is a psychologist who has worked in private practice for 12 years, in New York City, Los Angeles, and Santa Fe. She trained at New York University and The New School, where she earned PhDs in literature (2003) and psychology (2011).? She works primarily with artists, and in fostering sustainable, creative career paths. She has taught literature, psychology, and video at New York University, The New School, the 92nd St Y, and the School for Making Thinking.? Her short films have screened at The Cannes Film Festival, Hyperallergic.com, Poets & Writers website, Animation Block Party, and in Alain de Botton¡¯s School of Life series. She writes a blog for Psychology Today and is the author of A Life of One¡¯s Own: A Guide to Better Living through the Work and Wisdom of Virginia Woolf (Penguin).
