INSPIRED BY

The Chase Aesthetics! contest was inspired by a 2008 project my life-long executive producer and creative advisor, Mikey Abts, and I designed entitled Theater’s Muses. It is a Shakespeare acting workshop hosted by (potentially) Sir Ian McKellen and Ms. Meryl Streep.

See this article from my Mise-en-Scene 21 study on art and the public health. Students would try out on Youtube video Shakespeare scene prompts to enter a filmed workshop with the most dynamic actors in 20th and 21st-century drama.

The Desire to Win was my first bootstrapped budget project on the philosophy and pedagogy of coaches. The theory can be found here: https://www.mise21.com/home/desire

Mise-en-Scene 21 is a spin-off of my coaching project focused on art, the creative process, and the public health. The study can be found here: mise21.com

Chase Aesthetics! Is a spin-off of my these three mission-based projects.
