[2:06] were awarded recently.

[2:12] for this current fiscal year.

[2:14] And additional $8,000 will become available at the start

[2:25] by distributing the funds across both fiscal periods.

[3:11] Would you like me to address the grant?

[3:15] Or answer questions?

[3:17] >> I think we have the background of the grant,

[3:21] provided by staff and it might be helpful.

[3:24] You can correct me if I'm wrong you talk about the impact.

[3:30] >> Certainly.

[3:31] Yes.

[3:31] We are really excited.

[3:33] This is our fourth year.

[3:35] This year coming with the largest number of students

[3:38] we have all eight high schools.

[3:40] And every middle school except for one is participating.

[3:44] The one that is not participating

[3:46] does not have a video technology or digital media program in it.

[3:51] Now we are up to w dash this year --

[3:55] we were dealing with about 100, a little under 150 students.

[4:00] We are going to be giving out over $20,000 worth

[4:05] of scholarships this year.

[4:07] After this year -- we've now become the largest scholarship

[4:12] provider through the public Education Foundation,

[4:16] to the Marion County Public School system, in Marion County.

[4:20] We are super happy about that.

[4:22] As far as the equipment tax to first thank you

[4:25] all for your support last year.

[4:27] What we were doing last year w Dash was building packs.

[4:30] What we found in the first two years --

[4:33] we were gaining equipment from the schools.

[4:37] Unfortunately -- not all of our schools have the same equipment.

[4:42] Some schools have a lot of good stuff

[4:46] from other schools don't have any some have more.

[4:49] We were piecemealing together, as close to an equal level

[4:54] playing field, between all the teams that we could permit we

[4:58] realized a we couldn't keep doing it --

[5:03] doing it that way.

[5:05] A group of filmmakers in town to potential local industry

[5:08] filmmakers to all work together, and pull they pack together that

[5:13] would be like standard industry equipment for the students.

[5:17] We have been building those packs now?

[5:21] We got the packs almost full last year right this year --

[5:26] my final.

[5:27] The packs will be done the good news is --

[5:29] to all of you have supported us through this -- to the packs --

[5:33] I don't know if you're familiar with B and H?

[5:37] B and H is one of the largest supply companies for film

[5:42] and video equipment there is.

[5:43] B and H has been kind of watching the film Darby's.

[5:46] They have helped us with a couple of things.

[5:49] Some software.

[5:50] The last couple of years.

[5:52] This year they have committed.

[5:55] They said you've got your packs.

[5:57] After this year, we hope we can finish off the packs totally.

[6:02] They sent from here on out -- we will be the provider of all

[6:05] of your equipment for the film Derby.

[6:07] You will never have to worry about standard industry standard

[6:11] equipment again.

[6:12] Thank you.

[6:13] That is a testament to everybody they saw the community

[6:17] support that came with this.

[6:19] Now we have come in.

[6:20] We are doing something new this year, that we've never done --

[6:25] on Saturday, we're hosting a college and career expo.

[6:29] And a future Filmmakers parent panel.

[6:33] We've had amazing response from colleges.

[6:36] We have full scale Santa Fe..

[6:42] UF.

[6:42] Journalism and Film.

[6:44] FSU.

[6:47] I can't remember.

[6:49] There's a lot that are coming.

[6:53] We are going to do a talk -- a panel.

[6:58] For parents as well.

[6:59] We have people from the school system coming to talk about

[7:03] financial .

[7:07] Help me out here.

[7:09] Financial rewards from schools.

[7:12] Scholarships financial assistance.

[7:13] They are going to talk about career pathways.

[7:17] They're going to talk about -- it's so that parents of --

[7:22] I hate to use film.

[7:23] Video.

[7:24] Digital media and video technology.

[7:26] So double check and ask the questions

[7:28] and be a little bit more supportive of the kids who

[7:30] want to go into the arts, so to speak.

[7:33] At the moment in the country -- if you look at number one higher

[7:37] in the country right now is digital media and video

[7:39] technology.

[7:40] It's all about storytelling.

[7:41] That is a story we are going to tell to the parents.

[7:45] The colleges are going to be here?

[7:48] Also, business offenders .

[7:55] We can talk about the cruise available now I'm excited

[7:58] to tell you all -- last year -- that's been happening every year

[8:03] last year we had six of our film Derby students graduating

[8:11] seniors that actually worked in paid internships in Ocala

[8:16] businesses last year.

[8:19] The other thing I want you to tell you from your support --

[8:25] in November in New York City there's a spot called the All

[8:29] High School Film Festival.

[8:32] They had about 3300 entries around the country

[8:37] might you all be excited to know 300 films coming to the films

[8:43] were from two film Derby kids from last year, who were juniors

[8:47] from also going to be in the film Derby this year

[8:50] like they used that equipment.

[8:56] [Laughs] Those are sort of some of the highlights for the film

[8:59] Derby.

[9:00] >> That is fantastic.

[9:01] Questions?

[9:03] Comments?

[9:05] >> Lori -- I would just like to say,

[9:07] thank you for your undying work.

[9:09] This has been so long and such an effort

[9:13] that you committed to for years and years and years.

[9:16] I just want to say thank you for doing all these things.

[9:19] Look at the success that this program has created.

[9:22] You should be so proud.

[9:24] >> Thank you so much.

[9:26] It takes a very large village to do this.

[9:29] Everybody

[9:35] [Applause] Throughout town in the building

[9:37] we were dealing with about 180 people total.

[9:41] Students that are mentors coming in.

[9:44] That's all a local industry.

[9:46] That mentor the teams of panelists coming in.

[9:50] Workshop leaders from other Places.

[9:53] Volunteers.

[9:55] Teachers.

[9:59] It is a big thing.

[10:01] It's gotten bigger.

[10:06] [Laughs]

[10:07] >> All right anything else?

[10:08] >> I just have a curiosity.

[10:09] Which school is not able to participate?

[10:13] >> I knew you'd ask me a question .

[10:19] I need to get my notes to get to it.

[10:25] [Crosstalk]

[10:27] >> I think it might be Fort McCoy middle they're going

[10:29] to send a teacher and if they want to start understanding what

[10:33] we are doing.

[10:36] Even though the film Derby is not in Marion County Public

[10:40] School event -- we work with them very closely to comply

[10:47] to some of the things for the safety of the students.

[10:52] We follow their rules about having level two volunteers

[10:58] to connect those volunteers who are actually with the teams --

[11:02] under with the students all the time.

[11:04] Sometimes, the outlying teachers who couldn't participate jelly

[11:08] they come in.

[11:09] They are learning a lot.

[11:10] They can actually know what you're doing

[11:13] and what kind of program they can put in their schools.

[11:16] >> That's great.

[11:17] Anything else?

[11:19] We heard the recommendation from staff.

[11:23] Will you repeat it again, in terms of the funding?

[11:26] We will need a motion .

[11:29] Please.

[11:30] >> Encourage you all to all come on Sunday the 27th from 2 to 5

[11:38] at the Marion Theater.

[11:39] Our screenings of all the films with the scholarships

[11:43] are awarded?

[11:45] Of course awards for the films.

[11:48] 2 to 5 p.m.

[11:49] At the Marion.

[11:56] It is super fun.

[12:06] [Indistinct conversation]

[12:09] >> The current available amount we have is $800.

[12:11] That will leave 1700 for the next fiscal year.

[12:13] Splitting that up.

[12:14] And then can I have a motion to that effect, >> I will make it.

[12:21] Approved?

[12:22] >> Okay.

[12:24] [Laughs] Staff's recommendation from Arnold

[12:27] has made that motion.

[12:30] >> Second.

[12:31] >> Thank you.

[12:34] >> Excuse me.

[12:35] I think I have to recuse myself.

[12:39] I work with him.

[12:41] Have been doing work with him for four years.

[12:53] >> Same with Greg, probably?

[12:59] [Indistinct conversation]

[13:01] >> The question do we have three members recuse themselves.

[13:03] Does that matter?

[13:14] >> Do we still have four voting yes?

[13:16] >> Can we text the vote?

[13:18] >> I'm not sure if you can text any of our members who are not

[13:21] here?

[13:21] I think it has to be documented in the meeting.

[13:31] >> that is not supposed to be announced.

[13:35] That is top secret.

[13:36] That's not something we want to leave out to.

[13:39] Maybe no one is going to review it maybe yeah I know.

[13:48] [Laughs]

[13:50] [Indistinct conversation]

[13:52] >> I think we're comfortable.

[13:53] Can I vote?

[13:54] I don't know.

[13:56] What are our bylaws?

[13:58] >> I shouldn't say anything.

[14:00] If you guys want to wait and table it until the next meeting?

[14:05] What I would do is -- we don't give out our scholarships until

[14:13] -- the foundation is our fiscal agent.

[14:16] Pays out all of our scholarships.

[14:18] What I could do -- just hold that.

[14:22] It could go into the later payouts that we are doing.

[14:27] If that helps in any way.

[14:30] >> When is there next scheduled meeting?

[14:32] I know tomorrow.

[14:39] [Laughter] The official rotation one.

[14:41] >> October?

[14:46] [Crosstalk]

[14:48] >> The three people will still be the three people.

[14:50] I don't know that we solve anything, really?

[14:53] >> In theory we would have to?

[14:55] Potentially three additional members here.

[14:58] >> Right.

[14:59] >> They would

[15:03] [Applause] .

[15:04] >> There are four people who can vote today, three people can't.

[15:06] Would that not work?

[15:07] I'm just asking.

[15:11] If there are four, four h.

[15:14] Three.

[15:14] Is that not enough to carry it?

[15:23] >> I feel like you shouldn't count against the quorum.

[15:25] >> That's still the majority?

[15:27] >> Okay..

[15:28] We have a motion and a second.

[15:31] All in favor.

[15:32] If you are not voting -- say your name and that you are

[15:36] recusing.

[15:36] Maybe we should do a vote they have a form to fill out.

[15:41] Yes.

[15:42] Yes.

[15:42] Okay.

[15:44] Let's do a voice vote.

[15:47] So you will know who is recusing.

[15:51] >> Do you need a new second?

[15:52] I'm not allowed to do that either.

[15:55] >> Let's have another.

[16:00] [Crosstalk]

[16:05] >> Tito.

[16:05] >> Myself.

[16:10] >>

[16:15] >> J Bailey I.

[16:16] >> Craig Thompson I recuse myself.

[16:19] >> Leslie Thompson.

[16:19] I approve.

[16:20] >>

[16:21] [Applause] Honorable Barbara.

[16:23] I approve.

[16:25] >> Motion carries.

[16:26] Congratulations.

[16:28] >> Thank you all very much thank you for your support.

[16:31] It means a lot to all of the kids.

[16:36] [Applause] Please come to any part of the Derby the 23rd

[16:40] through the 27th if it was the 16th through the 27th I think I

[16:43] would kill myself.

[16:46] [Laughter] It's the 23rd through the 27th.

[16:50] The kids workshop day is the 24th.

[16:54] The 25th is the day the kids will be around.

[16:57] For the first time this year W going across 42 Tuscawilla

[17:01] for locations.

[17:05] Saturday is a career in college Expo.

[17:08] Sunday or the awards.

[17:09] I would love to see you at any and all.

[17:12] Whatever you can do call me to come by.

[17:14] That would be great.

[17:15] Thank you all so much.

[17:16] Have a good one.

[17:17] >> By.

[17:18] Okay.

[17:20] >> Madam chair may I ask a question?

[17:22] >> Certainly.

[17:23] Jamie.

[17:25] >> Hi.

[17:26] I'm slightly confused.

[17:30] I was expecting this meeting today was just

[17:32] going to be the roster stuff.

[17:34] Was I out of my mind?

[17:36] >> No.

[17:37] It was originally going to be.

[17:42] We got the application August 20th.

[17:46] >> Okay.

[17:47] I'm not saying anything bad.

[17:48] Does that mean we are not having an October meeting?

[17:52] Or we are still having October meeting?

[17:55] >> We still have the typical schedule.

[17:57] >> Thank you.

[18:03] We made it to item number five a continued review of the Public

[18:07] Artist Roster applications.

[18:09] Presented by Jamie.

[18:13] If you will review how we're going to go through this process

[18:18] again?

[18:18] I don't think we hammered it out last time.

[18:22] Emily is on her way, by the way.

[18:24] I just got a text.

[18:26] The dog got loose.

[18:29] >> Very similar to how we did last meeting --

[18:32] point out artists that had discrepancies in how voting

[18:35] went.

[18:36] If there were large differences -- top to bottom scores --

[18:39] if they were close to the borderline --

[18:42] again asking com are we rounding up?

[18:44] If someone got a 1375 double just just below the 14 --

[18:48] are we considering that passing score?

[18:53] We will follow your lead on that paramedic

[19:02] >> Do we need to approve each one individually to point out --

[19:05] would you take your votes as your feelings on them only bring

[19:08] up the ones that seem like maybe there is a discussion that needs

[19:11] to be had about that artist.

[19:12] For their work.

[19:15] >> I have PTSD.

[19:21] [Laughter]

[19:22] >> I know.

[19:22] I'm sorry.

[19:22] Here we go.

[19:24] >> Did you bring your spreadsheet?

[19:25] >> I did comment as a matter of fact.

[19:27] There are several of them.

[19:37] >> I took a page out of Leslie's book this time, too.

[19:40] Name this artist Roberta review.

[19:42] Richard Chung there were scores from as a to a up to 18

[19:45] including the final average to 13 point.

[20:02] >> (Inaudible)

[20:13] >> Would it help if we kill the lights?

[20:15] Would that put you to sleep?

[20:16] Maybe some of these top ones?

[20:28] Thank you.

[20:31] >> The average of 13.2.

[20:32] Are we keeping that?

[20:35] >> Average of what?

[20:36] >> 13.2.

[20:45] >> Let's discuss amongst ourselves.

[20:47] All right.

[20:48] Who gave it the eight?

[20:55] >> I don't remember, actually perhaps if I just ask do we have

[20:58] consensus for this to be entered into the registry?

[21:02] >> I will say for myself looking at this.

[21:05] I had to think about this one a lot.

[21:07] I love that it was different.

[21:09] It was interesting.

[21:12] It just felt very human -- as opposed to cold and perfectly

[21:18] sculpted.

[21:19] There's something about it that just felt so interesting to me

[21:25] a lot of figurative sculptures.

[21:34] >> I would vote to push this over the 14.

[21:36] >> Everybody agree?

[21:38] >> Just for variety's sake alone.

[21:40] >> Put it into the registry.

[21:57] >> This next artist, we have a 12.8.

[21:59] Very similarly.

[21:59] The low score was a four.

[22:01] The highest score is 16.

[22:29] >> They are having their own block party.

[22:48] >> I don't have a lifeline for this one.

[22:56] >> Hello, Emily.

[22:56] That's okay.

[22:57] The second viewing.

[23:00] We are doing the same thing (Indistinct)

[23:11] we are on our second one.

[23:13] We are saying, any questions , comments.

[23:21] >> Jamie can you reread the high low on this one?

[23:23] >> Low score of four.

[23:25] High score of 16.

[23:27] >> And the artist again?

[23:30] >> Emily Clanton.

[23:32] Comments were the community engagement.

[23:36] Community driven aspects.

[23:42] And the average was 12.8.

[23:46] >> Were the comments given for the four?

[23:51] >> No.

[23:59] >> Does not to follow instructions. (Indistinct).

[24:02] Pam will just make the comment --

[24:05] I give this artist a 13.

[24:11] But I like that she had done collaborative outdoor work

[24:16] permit I wasn't really excited that the boxes are just

[24:22] vinyl wrapped.

[24:24] She also had an arts and health degree from UF.

[24:30] Maybe her approach to a I didn't give her 14,

[24:37] maybe her thought process was a little more --

[24:45] maybe I'm skewed in that direction?

[24:48] Maybe I'm not necessarily skewed in a bad way.

[24:49] Maybe its own utility box.

[24:51] There might be more -- city guidelines or something.

[24:54] They have to be removal.

[24:56] I don't know.

[24:58] It didn't look like all the artwork was like that.

[25:01] For those utility boxes, that might have been the reason.

[25:06] I gave her a 15.

[25:11] I'm curious more about the four.

[25:19] >> Average is 12.3 you said?

[25:22] >> 12.8571.

[25:24] >> Okay.

[25:31] What is the desire of the commission?

[25:33] I hate to be a pain in the butt about this.

[25:35] What is the next highest after the fourth?

[25:38] >> 13.

[25:39] >> I would say push her through.

[25:40] That four is a huge outlier.

[25:43] >> Good point.

[25:45] >> Okay.

[25:46] Excellent.

[25:47] >> You've entered two more.

[25:48] Into the register.

[26:06] >> Next artist is Judy Kohn.

[26:07] They earned an 11.85.

[26:33] Staff representative can we scroll down

[26:35] and look at some of the other ones as well?

[26:37] Amy?

[26:41] Plus they are basically watercolors.

[26:45] There's no experience that I see here personal works.

[26:50] >> I didn't read it really high.

[26:51] We kind of decided the smaller pieces would not be appropriate.

[26:56] >> The range was 2 to 15.

[26:58] >> All in favor of not including?

[27:01] >> Keep that one the same.

[27:02] >> Keep that on the same.

[27:03] Yes.

[27:04] Thank you.

[27:07] Push us very quickly.

[27:21] [Laughs]

[27:28] >> This score to 13.7 is the average?

[27:30] A high of 17.

[27:30] Low of eight.

[27:39] >> What is the name?

[27:40] >> Modern art creations.

[27:41] >> It would be under C.

[28:12] [Crosstalk]

[28:12] >> The low score was eight.

[28:12] The next one --

[28:14] 213.

[28:14] 14.

[28:15] 16.

[28:15] 15.

[28:18] >> Even though these appear to be primarily indoor sculptures?

[28:22] I still put it at 14.

[28:26] I thought they had the capacity to fabricate something?

[28:31] Maybe I can put it at 15.

[28:33] And bam sounds like a conjecture that one into the register.

[28:45] >> (Indistinct) the high score is 15 or 16.

[28:48] Hovering around 13.7.

[28:49] Do we also want to sort of stay low consistent as well?

[28:53] Doesn't matter?

[28:55] Maybe I don't necessarily think so there are

[28:58] two different very different.

[29:02] >> It's work in my opinion.

[29:04] For me -- I bumped this.

[29:07] >> Yes we are good for this one.

[29:10] Yes.

[29:19] Maybe I'm next artist Mike Christie.

[29:25] Low score of ten high score of 17 the average was 13.71.

[29:35] Sorry Jamie.

[29:37] Can you repeat those scores?

[29:41] >> Yes.

[29:41] The average score was 13.7.

[29:43] The lowest score of ten.

[29:46] High score of 17.

[29:54] >> This person is basically my notes said basically a graphic

[29:56] designer.

[29:57] With no large scale experience.

[30:02] I would agree with not putting him on the list.

[30:06] >> Next.

[30:18] [Indistinct conversation]

[30:26] >> Thank you for moving that along.

[30:27] Our next artist is Sarah Gamble.

[30:29] The average score was 13.

[30:30] The low was four.

[30:31] The high was 17.

[30:37] There are also four teams and 11.

[30:39] The average was what?

[30:42] >> 13.

[31:02] >> I do not vote to pass this.

[31:03] Personally.

[31:03] >> I was confused on this.

[31:03] >> What am I looking for?

[31:04] I mean that was my problem.

[31:06] I'm just not clear what we would be getting.

[31:14] >> Not on the list?

[31:17] >> Bye bye.

[31:34] >> (Indistinct) I have other better work did you just come

[31:37] to an interview and tell me you have better work at home?

[31:39] Did it occur to you to bring it to the interview?

[31:41] >> Would you pass that forward come up please?

[31:43] Maybe Mrs. Jennifer Geiger?

[31:46] >> Yes.

[31:47] The average of 13.85.

[31:49] Low score of eight.

[31:51] High score of 16.

[31:55] >> Very whimsical.

[32:04] >> That was my word, too.

[32:06] For what they did, I liked it.

[32:07] >> I was one of the low scorers.

[32:08] I would push her over the edge.

[32:20] >> What is the average?

[32:21] >> 135.

[32:21] 138.

[32:21] Sorry.

[32:22] >> In the registry.

[32:24] >> Excellent.

[32:28] Maybe I was with you on that one, Emily.

[32:32] >> Greg?

[32:33] >> Next artist is Mark >> Solidary.

[32:40] >> With an average score of 13.14.

[32:41] The scores were closed for the lowest temporarily high was 17.

[32:46] >> Can you repeat the name?

[32:47] >> Mark Harris.

[33:03] >> Is that conceptual?

[33:04] The one that's outside?

[33:05] I was a ten.

[33:05] I think it was for the fact of the small works

[33:11] that I was scoring at, that way I

[33:13] was at 11 I had no artworks for public art installations outside

[33:17] of that.

[33:18] >> I like this stuff.

[33:20] It was super tiny.

[33:22] >> Yeah.

[33:23] >> What about the one that was in the park standing vertically?

[33:25] >> That's what we're asking.

[33:27] That was more of a conceptual idea versus -- it felt weird.

[33:36] >> It looks like it's floating.

[33:47] >> (Indistinct)

[33:48] >> I think we're moving on including this one.

[33:48] We're keeping whether it's at?

[33:48] >> We're not.

[33:49] Right?

[33:50] >> Correct.

[34:04] >> Next artist is Erika Heffernan.

[34:05] This one had a low score of two.

[34:07] High score of 15.

[34:09] With the average 11.57.

[34:13] >> What is the next score?

[34:17] >> 11.

[34:18] A couple 12?

[34:20] A couple 15.

[34:22] And, a 14.

[34:27] Interesting?

[34:27] Not sure if it's a fit for the roster.

[34:31] >> They're beautiful.

[34:33] I was the two.

[34:35] It didn't fit under anything that is shown publicly.

[34:41] >> This is just two dimensional photography.

[34:44] There's no experience there.

[34:51] [Crosstalk]

[34:52] >> No registry.

[35:02] >> With Christopher Hershberger.

[35:03] The average score is 12.

[35:04] With a low score of four.

[35:05] High score of 17.

[35:07] There was a comment even from the higher score of 17W-I would

[35:12] like to see larger pieces.

[35:29] >> (Indistinct) two dimensional art?

[35:31] Maybe I'm mostly he's done (Indistinct) .

[35:51] >> (Indistinct) a big wide wall.

[35:52] What would it feel like to feel that space?

[35:53] >> I feel like a lot of it is fantasy driven.

[35:55] I feel like -- it's possible that it could have gone more

[36:01] of a larger scale of that opportunity hasn't come to him

[36:05] yet .

[36:09] I don't know.

[36:10] I think the artwork is cool.

[36:12] >> What was the average >> 12.

[36:23] >> What it push him over?

[36:24] >> I think we have to be fair to everybody.

[36:26] I just don't know how much the one fourths makes a difference.

[36:34] As much as we love it.

[36:37] While?

[36:37] No?

[36:39] >> That's a big gap.

[36:41] 12, 14.

[36:42] Compared to the others.

[36:44] >> That's fair.

[36:58] >> This artist is Martin hallway track average score was 13.57.

[37:00] These scores were closer together low score was ten.

[37:04] High score was 15.

[37:11] They've been on two virtual.

[37:15] >> Glad we mixed.

[37:16] Finally I take 12 here.

[37:21] We are going up.

[37:26] Definitely mural experience .

[37:29] Maybe he's perfect experience with basic mural stuff.

[37:38] >> One of my questions became in doing this --

[37:40] so much of this work is very (Indistinct).

[37:45] I'm sorry we are just in Maryland.

[37:46] They start to all look alike.

[37:46] Do push something through that really is not is this offering

[37:50] anything more than what is already in the higher range

[37:53] of artists ?

[38:02] Who is opening a restaurant and look at the 300 artist roster

[38:04] to figure out which one?

[38:04] >> I'm going to ask is this artist local or further away?

[38:07] >> There's a manatee.

[38:09] This specific mural is Jacksonville Zoo.

[38:14] Yes.

[38:15] Address is Jacksonville.

[38:27] >> I think there's better work and the other piece is.

[38:29] I don't think this adds anything .

[38:33] Maybe that's fair maybe that's my question kind of looking

[38:35] at it from that perspective to.

[38:38] >> I just went in thinking that we are supposed to judge them

[38:41] based on their own artwork and marriage and not compare them

[38:44] to others.

[38:45] >> I agree.

[38:46] Now that we are actually parsing out this situation --

[38:49] by passing them through -- are we really?

[38:55] >> I think -- even if we say come okay.

[38:59] You can be on the registry because you mural experience --

[39:09] whether this person gets picked for a mural or not is not

[39:12] our final decision.

[39:12] >> If they're on the roster come it's no harm no foul.

[39:15] As long as they can show evidence they can do it

[39:17] >> If somebody decides to hire him that's not on us.

[39:20] They have the option of 300 murals.

[39:23] They chose that one that's their choice.

[39:25] I don't know.

[39:28] >> It also throw a curveball.

[39:30] I would go through and Rescore all of them.

[39:33] Evaluating exceptionally unique.

[39:35] Something we've never seen before but characteristic I was

[39:38] judging them by.

[39:40] Throw another curveball for me to read about everyone

[39:43] else through that lens comment specifically, that I didn't do.

[39:47] >> Are we okay with putting this one in the registry?

[39:50] >> What was its average >> 13.57.

[40:00] >> Okay.

[40:01] That would push him over.

[40:18] >> This is Aggie Coco.

[40:19] Averaged 13.85.

[40:20] Low score of eight.

[40:22] High score of 16.

[40:24] Comments were well executed.

[40:27] Unique shapes.

[40:29] Also no evidence of larger work in public spaces.

[40:44] >> New evidence of larger work.

[40:45] That one that was on the dock, it looked like a window.

[40:48] I don't remember the dimensions.

[40:49] Not that one.

[41:05] >> (Indistinct) connect named him dad one.

[41:06] What's a material?

[41:06] Marble of some kind?

[41:07] >> This one is saying the dimensions are 200cm by 180.

[41:13] >> Somebody?

[41:16] >> Nothing.

[41:16] >> Thank you.

[41:18] >> Not big.

[41:19] >> It says it's not in a public place.

[41:21] It looks like it might be a conceptual piece?

[41:24] Maybe?

[41:25] >> There were some things that looked like people would take

[41:27] a picture of from real close it looked like it was in a public

[41:30] space.

[41:33] >> Yeah.

[41:34] >> It was like -- >> It says it was actually in Turkey last

[41:39] year.

[41:40] Right?

[41:42] >> Yes.

[41:44] >> It's an actual piece.

[42:00] >> (Indistinct)

[42:02] >> Do you all see that houseplant?

[42:03] Do you see the houseplant in the back?

[42:03] Is that real?

[42:03] When things don't make sense -- you know?

[42:05] That is a I.

[42:15] [Crosstalk]

[42:17] >> This was the example of the public art?

[42:19] I thought it was a I. I didn't consider this

[42:21] as an example of it being large scale.

[42:22] >> 20ft.

[42:23] >> Is that 20ft?

[42:25] >> 200cm is six foot.

[42:28] It the Googles.

[42:29] I just asked.

[42:41] [Laughs]

[42:42] >> It's an unusual measurement to choose for a larger.

[42:44] >> If there's any questions, this is a no.

[42:50] [Indistinct conversation]

[42:52] >> The rest of them were all smaller pieces I could think

[42:55] at one point I did do the math on it.

[42:56] What is 200cm?

[43:04] [Laughs] I'm going to say no.

[43:05] That's my personal thought everybody else calm my thoughts?

[43:07] >> I would say no.

[43:12] >> Sounds like we're moving.

[43:13] >> Moving right along.

[43:14] Enter into the register.

[43:22] >> This artist, Tommy Lee.

[43:23] Also a 13.14.

[43:23] The scores were closer together.

[43:23] Close score of 12.

[43:23] High score of 15.

[43:24] One of those boundary artists.

[43:53] >> I saw in this one.

[43:54] I had written down a lot of conceptual ideas.

[43:56] Not lots of images representation installations

[43:58] quirky conceptual artwork that's not showing

[44:04] what you can actually do.

[44:16] >> Do I hear a no? (Indistinct)

[44:27] >> Lisa Bachmann.

[44:28] Average of 13.8.

[44:28] Low of eight.

[44:29] High of 17.

[44:46] I wrote that on my notes.

[44:48] She's an art professor.

[44:51] The installations are immaterial.

[44:56] Not necessarily good about it.

[44:59] It was a lower score for that reason.

[45:11] >> It's 13.8.

[45:11] If a business is looking for that specific work --

[45:14] (Indistinct) from finding her?

[45:16] >> To me it didn't feel like it fit as part of what we were

[45:19] going for come up with a roster.

[45:21] >> That's true.

[45:35] >> I am a no.

[45:35] >> We can let her stay?

[45:35] >> Others?

[45:35] >> The score stays.

[45:36] >> 13.8.

[45:38] Almost anyone strongly feels about pushing It over

[45:46] into the pass range?

[45:54] >> I would.

[45:54] I would too, actually.

[45:54] >> Okay.

[45:55] >> (Indistinct) maybe we kind of talked about it at the last

[46:00] meeting.

[46:01] My concept initially when I was looking at these --

[46:03] were outdoors materials.

[46:05] Like we said -- it doesn't necessarily always have to be

[46:10] outdoors to be public art.

[46:13] >> That's true.

[46:13] There's a lot of indoor stuff throughout this.

[46:16] It was exceptional.

[46:20] Push it through.

[46:31] >> In the registry.

[46:32] Doing great.

[46:32] Thank you for Carolina Mayorga.

[46:33] 13.7.

[46:33] Close score of 11.

[46:35] High score of 15.

[47:04] Okay.

[47:04] To be perfectly honest I gave a 14, specifically.

[47:08] I want you to see where the discussion went on this.

[47:12] I wanted to get other people's opinions.

[47:16] [Laughs] I didn't think it was exceptional.

[47:21] There's a place for it kind of cute.

[47:23] Just depends on what you're looking for.

[47:23] The little grasshoppers and whatnot.

[47:26] Whatever.

[47:27] I wanted to hear the discussion.

[47:30] Keep it in 11 minute it was cute.

[47:35] Smaller.

[47:36] Scale.

[47:38] >> It's still public.

[47:39] >> I don't know I'm neutral on whether we push it over or keep

[47:43] it at 13.7.

[47:57] >> I wasn't really excited.

[48:02] >> (Indistinct)

[48:02] >> Not on the list.

[48:04] [Crosstalk] And then I wouldn't vote to push this one.

[48:06] >> Fantastic.

[48:06] Moving right along.

[48:07] >> I saw it come I would go come I had a seat.

[48:09] To endorse it?

[48:11] Is another thing.

[48:13] I >> This artist.

[48:23] Van McDonough the average score of 13.

[48:24] Those score eight.

[48:25] High score 16.

[48:31] And then no.

[48:33] A very interesting practice.

[48:36] Glass tubes with stuff inside of it?

[48:39] Fascinating to me.

[48:42] I found myself wanting to score high.

[48:50] What else?

[48:53] >> There's other stuff?

[48:54] >> There's some I guess I got lost in the sauce.

[48:58] Are we -- I don't know.

[49:03] >> Such a different medium.

[49:04] Glass.

[49:05] We don't have a lot of that.

[49:09] Maybe I thought the glass tubes (Indistinct) .

[49:20] I like the colors.

[49:32] >> Let's say keep it?

[49:33] >> 13 was the average I >> 13 was the average?

[49:40] >> I would agree.

[49:41] We are good?

[49:41] >> Madonna.

[49:41] Are we keeping it at 13?

[49:45] >> We are voting on it.

[49:47] Excellent.

[49:53] Our next artist is David McGraw.

[49:58] Score of 13.4.

[50:00] These scores were closer together.

[50:05] With the range of 10 to 16.

[50:30] [Indistinct conversation] There's obviously here.

[51:17] It's not personally for me.

[51:22] Comments were could use better photography of the work.

[51:26] Interesting objects.

[51:27] Fun shapes.

[51:38] >> I want to know where.

[51:39] Is at a park?

[51:39] I'm just picturing it.

[51:49] >> Okay.

[51:50] It didn't wow me.

[51:50] I wasn't like this is the best artwork.

[51:50] I love this.

[51:51] >> There's some interesting shapes.

[51:53] It's kind of fun.

[51:55] I want to say more of that.

[51:57] The piece was kind of >> What's the average?

[52:07] >> 13.4.

[52:08] >> This was the only one that actually kind of liked.

[52:08] This one.

[52:09] And then the one with the giant skewer with pieces

[52:13] on it I like that one.

[52:16] I don't know.

[52:31] >> Are we okay with moving this forward to the registry?

[52:31] >> I think we probably should -- there's experience here.

[52:33] Just because we don't like it -- the material?

[52:36] >> Right.

[52:37] I don't think it's fair for us to judge one way or the other

[52:40] we talked about this and the other context.

[52:43] Do they have the experience?

[52:44] Yes.

[52:45] They have.

[52:46] Is it exciting stuff?

[52:50] >> Somebody might enjoy it.

[52:51] Just not ask.

[52:53] >> We're relatively close.

[52:57] >> Push it on through.

[53:11] >> Our next artist is Gregory Montiel.

[53:13] Average score of 13.8.

[53:13] Lowest score of eight.

[53:14] High score of 16.

[53:18] Mostly 15.

[53:34] >> I felt like the experience was there.

[53:35] Not my choice.

[53:35] That's okay.

[53:36] He's got the experience.

[53:38] You know.

[53:48] There were large scale works.

[53:52] It might not be what I would choose, but somebody might.

[53:57] >> I'm a little confused.

[53:58] Why do we do this?

[53:59] I am just being honest.

[54:01] It is passable.

[54:02] I am not being rude.

[54:04] We should not decide any of this.

[54:07] Somebody will like some of it.

[54:09] Just pass them all.

[54:11] >> They're not all Meryl.

[54:13] >> I'm just saying.

[54:14] One person could have gone through

[54:15] and said none of that says mural work.

[54:17] We don't put that in.

[54:19] Everything else -- on some level,

[54:22] I guess I completely don't understand this.

[54:25] Is there anything that says you're trying to curate this?

[54:29] We are trying to offer a unique?

[54:31] I'm not being facetious.

[54:32] I just don't understand it.

[54:35] >> There is a two skill sets that we laid out from the very

[54:41] beginning format what is he professional -- experience?

[54:50] They created anything previously on a scale

[54:53] that would warrant itself to a public art committee I

[54:57] think it's pretty clear.

[55:00] Somebody is doing two dimensional watercolors

[55:02] or photography double or not people

[55:06] should have in their register.

[55:10] The whole idea is to bring at least some modicum of experience

[55:17] in our quality of?

[55:19] That is why we are judging these things we're not calling

[55:21] those two different merits.

[55:24] Maybe the next time that we do this --

[55:29] we have a discussion of beginning,

[55:32] about what we are doing.

[55:35] >> We don't enter those things.

[55:38] If they're below a certain size?

[55:42] What are the parameters?

[55:44] Maybe I think staff could do that.

[55:46] I think staff can eliminate the ones that

[55:49] do not meet the criteria.

[55:51] Submitting little tiny postcard sizes.

[55:53] I think they could read those out.

[55:56] >> I think that's a really great idea.

[55:58] Because, this is an overwhelming number of things to go through.

[56:02] >> Greg.

[56:03] You are saying to tell the artist who

[56:04] are applying to Pardesh there's requirements?

[56:07] >> Upfront.

[56:19] [Crosstalk]

[56:23] >> Some of them were submitting stuff to submit.

[56:25] >> I'm used to theater platforms will not let you enter that

[56:25] stuff do your flat outlining company will kick you out.

[56:27] This is, I don't know if the platform allows

[56:29] it to escape through you'll easily come

[56:31] if it doesn't fit the criteria.

[56:32] I don't know.

[56:48] [Crosstalk]

[56:50] >> We use Andrea's cafe.

[56:51] You put that all in there there's

[56:51] no reason they can't upload images.

[56:51] Right.

[56:51] >> Good job all the time they're not qualified.

[56:54] They are trying to meet unemployment requirements.

[57:12] [Laughs] If I had someone apply for a job

[57:13] they said it's too much work for me where are we on this?

[57:13] Discussion going.

[57:13] Good discussion.

[57:14] >> What was the average?

[57:16] >> 13.8.

[57:31] You said the majority 15?

[57:32] >> I say push it through the majority are 15.

[57:41] >> You doing a great job >> You guys through all these artists..

[57:43] It's a lot.

[57:43] >> Do we know how many we were viewing today?

[57:45] >> We're about halfway through?

[57:46] A little more than halfway through.

[57:48] >> Let's roll.

[57:49] >> I love it.

[57:55] Damien this is Rhonda with an average score of 13.28.

[58:01] These scores are closer together low score of 11.

[58:04] High score of 14.

[58:06] 15.

[58:07] Sorry.

[58:07] Maybe yes that was the 11.

[58:24] >> rate this one my lower ones because were conceptual?

[58:26] I the idea of.

[58:26] >> will let her at 13.

[58:27] Whatever. >> We look at same situation

[58:53] This one, score average was 12.57.

[58:56] Low score of eight.

[58:58] High score of 15.

[58:59] 16.

[59:16] >> It's funny how the real world (Indistinct) seeing another

[59:19] butterfly.

[59:19] Mirrors all have to have butterflies or dragonflies

[59:19] in them.

[59:20] >> City Council rejected one, one time paramedic (Indistinct)

[59:41] >> So many people paint butterflies. (Indistinct)

[59:46] [Crosstalk]

[59:48] >> What was the average for this one?

[59:49] >> 12.7.

[59:50] >> I personally say no.

[59:59] >> No thank you.

[1:00:04] >> (Indistinct)

[1:00:04] [Laughs] And then this is Allison.

[1:00:12] [Crosstalk]

[1:00:16] >> Allison reported 12.57.

[1:00:17] Low of eight.

[1:00:18] 16.

[1:00:27] >> My notes say most.

[1:00:28] No.

[1:00:28] Most of it is indoor work.

[1:00:29] There are two small outdoor intervals.

[1:00:41] >> I would say no.

[1:00:42] >> I would say no.

[1:00:55] >> Artist coyote Sally.

[1:00:56] Average was 13.

[1:00:56] Low score of eight.

[1:00:57] High score of 17.

[1:01:06] >> I remember being confused by this one.

[1:01:08] When I first looked at it.

[1:01:08] It was explosions.

[1:01:08] Right?

[1:01:08] Okay.

[1:01:08] >> Remember correctly -- according to my notes,

[1:01:09] I said indoor paintings.

[1:01:11] Bam it felt like experience installations.

[1:01:16] Something you see at a museum or whatever.

[1:01:37] >> Those are projections.

[1:01:42] >> I was just at an art center in Virginia.

[1:01:43] This is different.

[1:01:55] >> (Indistinct)

[1:01:59] >> I thought it was interesting.

[1:02:00] I don't know what everybody thinks about pushing it

[1:02:00] through or not.

[1:02:00] >> I love it.

[1:02:00] I don't know if this is something --

[1:02:00] I mean is there a place -- space in Ocala where someone is going

[1:02:03] to commit to maintaining (Indistinct)?

[1:02:15] Maybe I'm a state room.

[1:02:16] >> I think this is more for a museum or gallery.

[1:02:26] >> I would love to see a work like this in Ocala.

[1:02:28] I don't know that there is a public space for.

[1:02:28] Then maybe if we put them on the roster.

[1:02:28] It will be what is the average Again?

[1:02:28] >> 13.14.

[1:02:28] And

[1:02:28] >> I think it offers -- we are not the end user of this

[1:02:32] register.

[1:02:36] Do you know somebody that does projection art?

[1:02:40] Maybe I'm pushing through there then.

[1:02:42] That's an option.

[1:02:43] Maybe I'm (Indistinct).

[1:02:51] Maybe I'm good or bad, we just all get through this.

[1:02:59] We invite you to look at 400 artists.

[1:03:01] Make your pick maybe a little bit.

[1:03:01] Maybe 350 artists.

[1:03:01] Take care..

[1:03:01] Maybe they can do them by filter.

[1:03:02] What is the next one?

[1:03:04] >> We have Nicole Sherman.

[1:03:06] With an average of 13.4.

[1:03:09] These scores will close together 12 as a low.

[1:03:13] 15 as a high.

[1:03:15] >> That would violate base code.

[1:03:18] No signs.

[1:03:20] >> Definitely advertisement.

[1:03:23] >> Yeah.

[1:03:25] >> I would say no.

[1:03:28] >> Everybody else?

[1:03:29] >> Okay.

[1:03:34] [Crosstalk] Maybe Brooke has the highest number paramedic

[1:03:48] always the lowest number.

[1:03:49] We wouldn't be here Brooke and.

[1:03:49] Maybe my the group.

[1:03:49] On this one.

[1:03:49] There's nobody that I'm like -- if it was something it was

[1:03:49] extremely passionate about --

[1:03:51] I would say it.

[1:03:52] Okay.

[1:03:53] Stephen Schuster?

[1:03:54] Low of 18.

[1:03:56] High of 18.

[1:03:57] Low of eight.

[1:04:01] >> I had to go back and look at this guy three times.

[1:04:05] I didn't quite understand what I was looking at.

[1:04:31] >> I just want to say

[1:04:32] >> He was literally one of the last things I graded.

[1:04:32] I don't understand.

[1:04:32] >> Butterflies.

[1:04:32] >> He's a bug dude.

[1:04:42] [Crosstalk]

[1:04:42] >> I think it's well done.

[1:04:43] I studied it. (Indistinct) I don't

[1:04:46] know that's a great fit for the roster?

[1:04:48] it's lovely work.

[1:04:48] >> Wow.

[1:04:48] >> I saw that one.

[1:04:48] Okay.

[1:04:48] I can see where it could be public facing in that way.

[1:04:49] With some of the stuff I was looking

[1:04:50] at going I don't understand how this is public

[1:04:52] facing in some way.

[1:05:20] >> Chelsea average again.

[1:05:21] >> 13.4.

[1:05:27] >> Are you okay with letting him in?

[1:05:35] [Indistinct conversation]

[1:05:38] >> It doesn't bug me.

[1:05:42] [Laughter]

[1:05:43] >> Butterflies two miles from anything like that.

[1:05:45] We don't have a moth at.

[1:05:46] That is good.

[1:05:50] >> I love the Beatles?

[1:05:51] >> Artist Justin Tyler Tate.

[1:05:51] With average of 13.

[1:05:51] Low of nine.

[1:05:51] High of 18.

[1:05:51] >> This was just in Tyler Tate?

[1:05:51] >> Yes.

[1:05:51] >> I put a one on him.

[1:05:51] >> Finally.

[1:05:52] >> I'm not joking.

[1:05:53] For two reasons.

[1:05:54] One -- I was not impressed at all with the artwork.

[1:05:57] Two -- I was offended by the statement that was made within

[1:06:02] his packet.

[1:06:03] About references.

[1:06:05] Did anybody else read that?

[1:06:07] >> I read that.

[1:06:08] What did it say?

[1:06:09] >> That was -- how dare the committee ask her?

[1:06:13] This is an outdated archaic request.

[1:06:18] I was like, don.

[1:06:21] I don't need you on the roster.

[1:06:25] Minimum just tell him he's watching.

[1:06:45] [Crosstalk] It was there this whole time

[1:06:46] I'm ready to because I'm trying to get pregnant according

[1:06:46] to the letter extended to himself

[1:06:46] as if it was a reference letter.

[1:06:46] Wrote an entire letter in the packet.

[1:06:46] I think basically he said he did not want to be on this roster

[1:06:47] maybe that was the long and short of it.

[1:06:48] How dare you submit to?

[1:06:50] The artwork, it was not good for Justin Tyler Tate.

[1:06:56] Justin Tyler Tate.

[1:07:01] To was reminiscent to Burning Man.

[1:07:28] >> You gave it a one.

[1:07:28] Did you give it an 18?

[1:07:28] >> I gave it a nine.

[1:07:28] Okay.

[1:07:29] Good.

[1:07:34] [Crosstalk]

[1:07:35] >> I thought that kind of matched the work I don't know

[1:07:37] if I didn't know almost like an edgy.

[1:07:37] You know.

[1:07:38] Here is my application.

[1:07:48] >> It does look like it could be set on fire.

[1:07:50] >> Definitely gave Burning Man.

[1:07:50] >> Again, I like Burning Man.

[1:07:50] I'll be honest.

[1:07:50] I thought this was some of the more interesting stuff that

[1:07:50] was submitted.

[1:07:50] I would love to see something more like this in Ocala.

[1:07:50] Standard traditional Whirligigs.

[1:07:51] There are some things here, I wish

[1:07:54] somebody would do something more interesting and push it.

[1:07:58] And edgy.

[1:08:20] >> (Indistinct)

[1:08:23] >> I loved it I'm so glad I was in town when it happened I

[1:08:23] remember saying oh my God.

[1:08:23] Thank you thank you.

[1:08:23] >> When you all tell me I like it.

[1:08:23] It's doing something different.

[1:08:23] I see that it's doing something different but I wouldn't walk

[1:08:23] by that I think -- that is art.

[1:08:23] >> That is scaffolding.

[1:08:23] >> This I agree with you.

[1:08:24] [Crosstalk] I went to his Instagram page.

[1:08:39] When I was judging this.

[1:08:40] Why didn't you put this in here I honestly had I not read his

[1:08:40] letter -- initially did when I saw that letter --

[1:08:40] I went -- okay.

[1:08:40] Done.

[1:08:40] Like, like, like, literally door slamming down.

[1:08:40] The fact that he wrote that letter I

[1:08:40] was like, like, I don't want your art

[1:08:40] looks like at this point.

[1:08:42] Because, you're kind of a jerk.

[1:08:45] Your approach.

[1:08:46] I don't think that was polite.

[1:08:48] >> Is he doing a bit?

[1:09:08] [Crosstalk] Maybe I don't have a person to talk to I have what

[1:09:10] you submitted in your application.

[1:09:10] If 300 plus people submitted comment had zero problems

[1:09:10] submitting references -- you're the one dude who is like,

[1:09:10] I cannot believe it.

[1:09:11] >> There's one in every >> I think it's an F to.

[1:09:33] >> 13 was the average.

[1:09:34] >> 13.. ..

[1:09:34] Over?

[1:09:35] >> Thank you.

[1:09:45] >> I liked it.

[1:09:46] Everybody needs to have a voice.

[1:09:47] >> What are you thinking?

[1:09:54] >> I'm just double checking.

[1:09:55] >> I put him at 13.

[1:09:55] >> I would say okay.

[1:09:56] >> You say okay to push him over?

[1:10:09] [Indistinct conversation]

[1:10:12] >> A yes Tito?

[1:10:12] A yes or no, Tito.

[1:10:18] >> I think it's creative.

[1:10:19] I think it's different.

[1:10:19] I would keep it.

[1:10:19] There's nothing like it.

[1:10:20] >> I would keep it.

[1:10:30] [Crosstalk]

[1:10:41] >> (Indistinct)

[1:10:41] >> I would say I'm okay with the vote being 423.

[1:10:43] Yes two no.

[1:10:43] I guess it means I'm a yes.

[1:10:44] I can push him over.

[1:10:50] [Laughs] I was on the panel I want

[1:10:51] to know what the letter was about?

[1:10:51] You need to get over yourself.

[1:10:51] Young man.

[1:10:51] Thinking with Jessie Thomas.

[1:10:51] With an average score of 13.7.

[1:10:51] These were close.

[1:10:51] Louis score of 11.

[1:10:52] High score of 15.

[1:11:24] >> I love the way they work around the architecture permit

[1:11:33] (Indistinct) Quite a mixture of.

[1:11:36] >> That was lowered.

[1:11:37] Have to push him over.

[1:11:39] >> He's pretty close.

[1:11:41] Arnold?

[1:11:41] What say you?

[1:11:44] Okay.

[1:11:45] Push him over to the register, please.

[1:11:57] We have Jose Trejo Mario.

[1:12:01] With average score of 13.14.

[1:12:03] Low score a high score of 16.

[1:12:14] I know Titus would like this there's nothing that really

[1:12:20] lends itself to be outdoors.

[1:12:25] At least not to too much.

[1:12:35] Opinions.

[1:12:44] I will clarify by saying it's more of an installation

[1:12:48] kind of a thing.

[1:12:49] In a museum or a gallery.

[1:12:53] >> I felt the same way.

[1:12:56] I want to understand it better.

[1:12:58] I don't know if it's about the photos themselves or just

[1:13:02] difficult to capture in photos --

[1:13:03] in a way that I would find it compelling and really grasp --

[1:13:07] just what it is about.

[1:13:09] Do you know what I mean did you all feel that?

[1:13:35] >> The record show broke and I felt bad about Justin Tyler

[1:13:37] Tate.

[1:13:37] Yes.

[1:13:37] >> That I could see everything.

[1:13:37] Just a different point of view.

[1:13:37] I really don't know that I'm saying it

[1:13:37] well enough in pictures.

[1:13:37] >> I thought it was kind of cool.

[1:13:37] We got to see the smaller pieces.

[1:13:37] Then you saw how they were realized on a larger sculpture

[1:13:37] as well.

[1:13:37] I thought that was kind of interesting.

[1:13:39] Got a little bit more detail in the smaller imaging as well.

[1:14:03] >> I guess I thought it was more of a written kind of written

[1:14:05] work as art it's more about the words and the poems.

[1:14:05] Rather than the visual element connect to the guys.

[1:14:05] Love them it'll be fun.

[1:14:05] Maybe they're adorable.

[1:14:05] >> It feels like it wants to be in a gallery or a museum.

[1:14:08] What if you had a coffee shop?

[1:14:12] You want to type like that with a message?

[1:14:16] >> That's true.

[1:14:19] >> That's what you need to put ourselves I think.

[1:14:21] The different applications we're not really

[1:14:24] judging the art in that basically chin interpretation

[1:14:55] (Indistinct)

[1:14:55] >> This is cool.

[1:14:55] I would say he'll be put into place in a public location as

[1:14:55] opposed to just a small little pieces.

[1:14:55] Once I got to this one.

[1:14:55] I was like kind of like.

[1:14:55] Oh.

[1:14:55] This looks pretty cool.

[1:14:55] >> Can we consider somebody do an article and say there's a new

[1:14:55] public roster at places like coffee shops should look at it.

[1:14:55] Do you know what I mean?

[1:14:55] I don't think people know I don't think they get

[1:14:55] the connection of -- that's a reason for this.

[1:14:59] The public needs to know about it if they

[1:15:02] don't get a lot of things.

[1:15:04] How many of the people that come to the civic

[1:15:06] are like I didn't know you guys were here.

[1:15:09] The same idea.

[1:15:11] Getting the word out in general.

[1:15:15] >> I think we probably are a little more visible

[1:15:40] (Indistinct).

[1:15:41] I wish more people would get it.

[1:15:41] Hear about it.

[1:15:41] >> Let's go ahead and go.

[1:15:42] Approve.

[1:15:57] >> The ones that we have the most discussion on --

[1:15:59] will be the first ones I get picked.

[1:15:59] >> Cool.

[1:15:59] Very interesting we would end up with some very interesting stuff

[1:15:59] in town.

[1:15:59] I think that would be awesome now we have Max Valentine.

[1:15:59] With an average of 13.85.

[1:15:59] Total score eight.

[1:16:00] High score 16.

[1:16:25] >> Push him over.

[1:16:27] [Crosstalk]

[1:16:30] >> There is a cat.

[1:16:32] [Laughter]

[1:16:37] [Crosstalk]

[1:16:37] >> I have a tattoo of a cat.

[1:16:37] Maybe my dog ate.

[1:16:37] I'm with you.

[1:16:37] >> They did have a good mural experience.

[1:16:37] >> This is our last artist.

[1:16:37] >> What?

[1:16:38] >> Let's go back through all of this again.

[1:16:56] [Laughter]

[1:16:57] >> One more time we have Jim Woodson.

[1:16:59] An average of 12.71.

[1:16:59] The lowest score was eight.

[1:16:59] High score, 16.

[1:16:59] >> This one didn't have any large scale works.

[1:17:12] >> You said Jim Woodson.

[1:17:13] I would say no.

[1:17:13] It's all mixed media.

[1:17:13] There's no sculptures or murals.

[1:17:13] Or anything.

[1:17:13] >> Everything was oil on canvas and small.

[1:17:13] In our next five years we do this again.

[1:17:15] That would be one the staff would weed out.

[1:17:17] >> A great suggestion.

[1:17:19] >> Never come to the light of day.

[1:17:22] Very lovely work.

[1:17:28] Jamie do you need anything else from us?

[1:17:33] >> I think we can save that conversation for when we go back

[1:17:37] to discussing the roster.

[1:17:39] If we have size requirements we would like to have in place.

[1:17:41] I think it's mentioned we talk about it being public art.

[1:17:45] And considering that for applying.

[1:17:47] Maybe if we have some specifics we can add?

[1:18:14] >> Large scale.

[1:18:15] >> Not Gallery.

[1:18:16] >> That is subjective.

[1:18:25] >> Are you making this report?

[1:18:26] Is this for tomorrow?

[1:18:26] What are we doing tomorrow?

[1:18:26] >> Tomorrow -- didn't meet quorum.

[1:18:26] You guys are free tomorrow.

[1:18:26] >> We got through all these.

[1:18:26] >> Right.

[1:18:26] That was the point.

[1:18:26] >> Are we done?

[1:18:26] The creative registry?

[1:18:26] Do we have more?

[1:18:26] >> Those are all the ones.

[1:18:26] I made notes of the scores that you

[1:18:26] believe should be just high enough to make a.

[1:18:26] I will send you an email with those names.

[1:18:28] We have to use what's in Cafe as our record.

[1:18:32] We will need -- if we voted a little more skeptical

[1:18:35] of your artist -- you know coming to reevaluate.

[1:18:38] I will detail that out.

[1:18:41] And the artist that you agree -- the score was appropriate --

[1:18:48] I will leave those names out.

[1:18:49] They will just keep that score.

[1:18:51] >> Okay.

[1:18:52] >> Only ones that we pass through we need to go back --

[1:18:56] >> Correct which means, y'all can sit tight I will just fix

[1:18:59] my scores.

[1:19:04] [Laughter] We will be fine we are so good I'm taking the fall.

[1:19:32] [Crosstalk]

[1:19:33] >>.

[1:19:33] For two notes you gave him a 14 or above,

[1:19:33] you would not need to. .

[1:19:33] >> That's true.

[1:19:33] >> Okay.

[1:19:33] We have accomplished magical things.

[1:19:33] >> I'm just going to do 14.

[1:19:33] It's going to work itself out.

[1:19:33] My lowest score was a 14.

[1:19:33] I think I did a 12 on somebody.

[1:19:33] Did a 13 on somebody.

[1:19:33] I was like --

[1:19:33] I can't vote that low.

[1:19:34] It just hurts my heart.

[1:19:58] [Laughter] People put such effort into that.

[1:20:00] I am an artist.

[1:20:00] Have a heart for them.

[1:20:00] No.

[1:20:00] I can't give you a three.

[1:20:00] I just can't do it.

[1:20:00] If you're a singer -- would be like, oh no.

[1:20:00] >> I said come I did that for almost everybody.

[1:20:00] >> Miss Bailey.

[1:20:00] >> Yes?

[1:20:00] >> Do we still have more things on the agenda?

[1:20:00] >> That's what I said.

[1:20:01] Thank you thank you.

[1:20:02] >> Six.

[1:20:29] [Crosstalk]

[1:20:33] >> Other business.

[1:20:34] >> Our total that we have is $8,381.93.

[1:20:34] As of this morning.

[1:20:34] With the last two applications that we are awarded --

[1:20:34] one has already been written as a check and delivered the other

[1:20:34] one, we are waiting on the building owner to give

[1:20:34] permission for the mural.

[1:20:34] We will be getting that hopefully soon.

[1:20:36] We will only have $800 left.
