In this vibrant episode of Creative Buzz, we begin with local oil painter Melody Wiggin, whose work is currently featured at Blue Loon Bakery in New London through the Center for the Arts’ MicroGallery program. Melody shares insights into her artistic process and reflects on exhibiting alongside her late mother, Shirley Wiggin, a celebrated watercolorist known for her vibrant, expressive style. Their shared show is a beautiful tribute to creativity, family, and legacy.
In our second segment, we dive into the world of speculative fiction with William (Bill) Shipley, author of Manufacturing Artificial Intelligence Agency (M.A.I.A.). Set in a dystopian future where AI chips erase memories and identities, the story follows sniper Alix Basil as he awakens to a forbidden truth. With the help of Anna—a fearless medic with rebellion in her blood—Alix must outrun the system before M.A.I.A. wipes his mind forever. In this interview Shipley discusses his book process and how AI was helpful in the use of parts of shaping his marketing.
Join us for a powerful episode where art, memory, and imagination collide.
