This week we jump the shark for the second time. First off, this episode is part four of our ten part series on abstraction. We talk about motherfuckin Agnes Martin, whether sharks are older than Satan, and Craig Calderwood's amazing new mural at SFMoMA. Maysoun speaks of drones. We apologize to the listeners.

The music in this episode is by La Luz (they are on tour! See them!)

This week we have the pleasure of talking to artist, Danielle Lawrence about abstraction, the body, and institutional decay. Then Maysoun and Kate explore their feelings about last week's painting by Howardena Pindell. It's a long episode, folks!
