Engineer Takes On YouTube

Marc DeVidts is a local engineer with an artist's mind - he's created a few videos about some of his projects and they have racked up some impressive hits. This one details the "Star Trek" style door he created in his bedroom, this one is a glow in the dark suit that he can control with his iPhone. Wow!

Yara Travieso comes to the NWS

Miami born director and choreographer Yara Travieso is an up-and-coming creative powerhouse. An original founder of the Borscht Film Festival, she has now turned her energy full time into producing, creating and manifesting wildly inventive mixed media performance pieces at world class venues like the Lincoln Theater in New York and the recently opened New World Symphony building on Miami Beach. Her latest show, presented by youngArts, opened to a packed house and was a bracing study of an emotional free fall. Although the show has moved on, I've posted the promotional video for it here. Enjoy!

Adventures of Discipline
