![]() ![]() With, Without, Within – what having a kitchen table means to our dancer who has experienced homelessness (created by Cody Brunelle-Potter and Laura Karlin).Loneliness, it comes in waves – scrolling at the table, longing for an escape (created by Jessica Dunn and Laura Karlin, with original music by Diana Lynn).Cheusok – a woman gathers with her ancestors at the kitchen table in a merging of traditional and contemporary rituals for the Korean festival of Cheusok (created by Hyosun Choi and Laura Karlin).Not currently available publicly but wanted you our dear Jeff to have a sense of our work and approach. This was the first round of films, created remotely and filmed at our kitchen tables. LK: For The Kitchen Table Project, we have made 6 solo dance films and 1 holiday film called Illuminate in 2020, and we are in are in post-production with our newest dance film now. JS: From the beginning of Kitchen Table Project until today, how many films has Invertigo produced? I contacted Karlin with several questions regarding The Kitchen Table Project: Karlin is now challenging her community to utilize the kitchen table idea to reflect, to mourn or to dream.” Invertigo press release.ĭiana Lynn Wallace, Spencer Jensen, Chelsea Roquero, Jeannette Bland, Haylee Nichele, Cody Brunelle-Potte – The Kitchen Table Project – Screenshot courtesy of Invertigo Dance Theatre Alongside Karlin, who directs and choreographs, the film was developed with Glyn Gray (Director of Photography), Chris Stokes (Lighting Designer), Rebecca Baillie Stumme (Production Manager), and Invertigo Dance Theatre staff support. “The film honors the memories of eight community members who were lost during the pandemic. The film features an intergenerational cast of artists which includes Cody Brunelle-Potter, Haylee Nichele, Diana Lynn Wallace, Chelsea Roquero, Jeannette Bland, and Spencer Jensen. The latest film produced by The Kitchen Table Project will premiere at this October 21 Fall soiree. These funds will also help to continue the project’s development and a 2022 premiere. Those who donate will receive personal invitations to Invertigo’s free virtual Fall Soiree on October 21, which will include the premiere of the latest film in The Kitchen Table Project series. Their goal is to raise $20,000 from now through the 13 th of September. All created following Health Department Covid related rules.Ĭody Brunelle-Potte – The Kitchen Table Project – Screenshot courtesy of Invertigo Dance TheatreĪs part of the fundraising to help support The Kitchen Table Project, Invertigo recently launched a crowdfunding campaign. To date, Invertigo Dance Theatre has shared several kitchen table dance films that incorporated “poetry, ancestry, food, inner child spirit, and a sense of home”. Most people can relate to how the kitchen table functions as a place for families to gather, to cook, eat, discuss plans, or to share feelings of loss and joy. Invertigo Dance Theatre’s most resent project is a new multidisciplinary dance collaboration called The Kitchen Table Project designed to help activate “communal healing through a web of interconnected dance films”. It was a highly successful and moving project. As is her nature, she and her company launched Nights of Care Package Cinema sending out notices asking for people to commission a dancer to make a short video to be sent to a friend or loved one of their choosing. While continuing to create dances, and work as an activist during 2020, Karlin saw and felt the loss of these in-person connections. During these months of isolation, millions of people went long periods of not seeing or hugging loved ones. She is the Artistic Director and Choreographer for Invertigo Dance Theatre, founded in 2007, and under the company’s name Karlin has created numerous evening-length dance theater works and outreach programs Invert/ED Education, Dancing Through Parkinson’s, Community In/Motion, and Walk the Walk.Īs I write, Covid has taken the lives of 25,630 people in Los Angeles County, 67,220 statewide, 661,000 throughout the United States, and 4.55 million worldwide. Laura Karlin is, among other things, a dancer, choreographer, director, humanitarian, activist, mother and wife who has created programs within her dance company that endeavor to heal as well as entertain.

This study increases understanding of the use of novel nanoscale biopolymer carriers as part of sustainable precision agriculture. To evaluate adsorption and coverage, residual levels of MFZ were measured at different time points. Efficacy over time was evaluated under field conditions by sampling soybean leaf tissue at different intervals post-spraying and feeding them to the soybean looper, Chrysodeixis includens (Walker). Thus, formulations of (+)ZNP(MFZ) were compared to a formulated commercial insecticide with the same active ingredient, Intrepid 2F at equivalent MFZ concentrations. However, those trials were conducted under laboratory conditions and field applications of (+)ZNP(MFZ) have yet to be conducted in order to demonstrate future applicability. Previous research has suggested that positively charged zein nanoparticles with entrapped MFZ may have greater deleterious effects on soybean lepidopteran defoliators than MFZ ( Bonser et al. To address these deficiencies, an experiment evaluating the biopolymer zein, a protein extracted from maize, as a nanodelivery system for methoxyfenozide (MFZ) was conducted. However, the impact of these nanoparticles in delivering agrochemicals is rarely evaluated in field studies. Biopolymer nanoparticles are degradable ( Vroman and Tighzert 2009) and have been evaluated as successful insecticide delivery agents in laboratory conditions ( de Oliviera et al. Environmentally safe and sustainable replacements for metal nanoparticles are needed and biopolymer nanoparticles have attracted increasing interest. 2021), and although these materials show promise in agriculture, concerns regarding unintended consequences exist, such as the accumulation of particles or ions in select environmental and biotic compartments, as well as a potential enhanced ability to penetrate cellular membranes ( Ahamed et al. Most agricultural nanoparticle research is focused on the use of inorganic nanoparticles ( Nel et al. Thus, nanoparticles could improve insecticide applications and reduce environmental pollution by delayed or even tunable release of active ingredients and selective targeting. Nanoparticles are agglomerations of materials, normally in the range of 1–100 nm, with increased surface area to volume ratios, resulting in functional characteristics divergent from their bulk counterparts ( Auffan et al. Nanoparticles as nanocarriers have the potential to increase insecticide delivery by improving or controlling absorption, coverage, and permeability while protecting insecticides from abiotic conditions and extending efficacy through slow release ( Hou et al. When insecticides are applied to plants, much of the product does not reach the intended target pest ( Pimentel 1995, Wang et al. The multiyear study results demonstrate that nanoparticles loaded with MFZ are comparable to Intrepid 2F under field conditions, with potential short-term benefits. Higher concentrations of MFZ were present in (+)ZNP(MFZ)-treated in leaf tissue at 3 d following spray when compared to Intrepid 2F. Regression analysis found no differences in mortality slopes between positively charged zein nanoparticles loaded with methoxyfenozide and Intrepid 2F, suggesting comparable efficacy of the synthesized nanoparticles to a commercial product. ![]() ![]() A separate set of leaves was sampled to measure residue levels of methoxyfenozide (MFZ) over time following foliar application using QuEChERS extraction and high-resolution liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry. Chrysodeixis includens (Walker) was used as a model and was fed sprayed soybean leaves to evaluate efficacy of the tested foliar products over time. Positively charged zein nanoparticles (empty and loaded with methoxyfenozide) were compared to the formulated product, Intrepid 2F, as a foliar spray in-field on soybean. We conducted a series of experiments using a biopolymeric nanoparticle synthesized from zein, a biodegradable maize protein, to compare efficacy of a nanodelivered hydrophobic insect growth regulator (methoxyfenozide) against a commercial formulation. Biopolymeric nanoparticles as nanocarriers have the potential to improve insecticide efficacy by improving absorption, coverage, and permeability while protecting the insecticide active ingredient from abiotic conditions and extending efficacy through controlled release. When insecticides are applied in the environment, much of the product does not reach the target pest. |
