For this episode, Hernease sits with former resident, Joshua Tonies… twice, due to technical issues with their first audio recording. Joshua was extremely generous to record for a second time to speak about his residency experience, his layered obsession with house plants and how he uses animation technology to make the intangible, tangible. This episode will be a hybrid combination of the first and second recording. For every interview, Hernease asks each resident to answer the question, “Where are you from?” Joshua’s answer during that first conversation was too wonderful not to include. So please bear with the audio quality for the first 12 minutes of their discussion.
And stay tuned at the very end for an epilogue discussion with Joshua around a very special piece he made during his time in residency at VSW.

Season 1 Episode 4
In this final episode of season 1, Hernease speaks with artist, Ligia Bouton. Ligia was an artist in residence at VSW in August of 2022. They recorded their conversation in the Project Space towards the very end of Ligia’s residency.
Ligia thoughtfully used the VSW building and archives in her multifaceted approach towards making work that is in response to and in conversation with an important historical figure in the history of astronomy.
We’ve included important reference links to Ligia’s website and to the work of Henrietta Swan Leavitt and other early women computers at Harvard.
