Tracey Cockrell

Tracey Cockrell, an interdisciplinary artist who synthesizes sculpture and experimental music, has been featured in radio broadcasts and in live performances. Her collaborative exhibit, POEMOPHONE: A Cacophonous Collaboration and Reading Series, gathered national and international artists/writers/musicians to compose and perform on experimental sculptural instruments. Discussions of her work appear in The Atlantic, Sculpture Magazine, ArtNewEngland, the Boston Sunday Globe, WGBH tv’s ‘Greater Boston Arts,’ and Maine Public Radio’s ‘Maine Things Considered.’ Recent residencies at the Tides Institute & Museum of Art and the Fiore Art Center influence her experiments in sound. She is the 20/21 New-Directions- Artist-in-Residence at UMass Dartmouth.

stroam

Do you like to stroll? Are you a fan of roaming? Then you should give stroaming a try. This is a word blend, just like brunch. In her 1796 novel Camilla, Frances Burney described a character who “stroamed into the ball-room, with the most visible marks of his unfitness for appearing in it.” The OED indicates that stroaming involves “long strides” and/or idleness, so watch your form and attitude when out on a stroam. Credits to Mark Peters.
