Absolute Magic
Oh Zachary (did I spell that correctly?), you are a gift to this planet and most especially to all the artists on it. This podcast is about textiles; their histories, their people and the stories they tell. But also, and maybe more so, its about being human, being soft, being compassionate and being raw. The guests Zak finds are treasures in themselves but Zak’s soft southern voice opens people up to the most beautifully insightful conversations. Maybe it was Zak’s years with high schoolers that taught him how to listen with such devotion… whatever it was, it shows in both his art and his interactions with his friends/guests. He mentions in an early episode that Zak sees himself as a lighthouse (one of a great many). That seems to fit. I was a bit lost at sea with my artistic practice and Zak and his guests (and friends on the Nook) have shown me the shore. In this country, at this time, gentleness like Zak’s is a great rarity. When you find it, you hold it close (and listen to each new Seamside episode the second it comes out). Thank you Zak, you’re a gem.
