EP 53 Miss P Segal

Episode 53 with Miss P Segal is out now! Meet P. Segal, a foundational figure in the San Francisco Cacophony Society and the early evolution of Burning Man. The conversation traces the historical significance of 1907 Golden Gate, a massive Victorian residence that served as a creative clubhouse where artists collaborated on subversive urban pranks and planned the first desert excursion of the "Man" in 1990. Miss P details her transition from a caterer and restaurateur to a therapist, eventually returning to her roots by developing Art House, a non-profit initiative dedicated to establishing permanent housing co-ops for displaced artists. She shares a history that captures the shift from underground play to organized community activism, lamenting the gentrification of San Francisco while championing the enduring necessity of unstructured creative connection.https://arthousesf.org/https://journal.burningman.org/2022/02/burning-man-arts/global-art/helping-artist-communities/Please visit https://shadowoftheman.buzzsprout.com/ for all of the details and links.Email [email protected] if you want to be a guest or if you have any concerns about the show.Please rate and review the show on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you listen, it REALLY helps the show to even appear in search results.
