Welcome to the third episode of the Brilliant Voices podcast. Hosted by Woodzick and Ruby Wilson from Islands of Brilliance, this episode delves into the fascinating relationship between neurodiversity and creativity. Islands of Brilliance is a Milwaukee-based nonprofit that empowers neurodivergent individuals through creative programming and digital art.
In this episode, Woodzick and Ruby explore hypothetical scenarios about downloading knowledge directly into the brain, touching on topics like mastering Excel and learning to fly an airplane. They also introduce the "Shiny Rock" segment, where they share joyful and meaningful experiences from their lives, such as the surprising joy of a favorite sandwich with a change in bread and a heartwarming story about Spongebob's voice actor affirming the character's neurodivergent traits.
Ruby then engages in an insightful conversation with Maeve and Harvey, two neurodivergent creatives who use dance and crafting as vehicles for self-expression, emotional discovery, and regulation. They discuss their personal journeys with art, the challenges of navigating academic and professional art spaces, and the importance of creating safe and playful environments for artistic exploration.
Maeve is currently a student at DePaul University working on her masters in Social Work. She received her Bachelor’s in Psychology at the University of Wisconsin Milwaukee with a minor in Design. Currently works as an assistant clinician at a therapeutic day clinic.
Harvey graduated from University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign with a BA in Dance and a minor in Psychology. They are a candidate for their Masters in Social Work at DePaul University. Harvey is passionate about teaching and working with kids. They taught dance for many years prior to working as an assistant clinician at a therapeutic day clinic. They love to make art and hang out with their two cats, Blake and Fallon!
This episode is packed with thoughtful reflections on the power of art in neurodivergent lives and the need for diverse perspectives in creative fields. Tune in for a rich discussion that celebrates the unique ways neurodivergent individuals interact with and contribute to the world of art.
Enjoy the episode and don't forget to celebrate your creativity and neurodivergent identity!
