1. New Curated Page alert! PRX is a nonprofit public media company dedicated to bringing our world’s stories to millions of people. They work to develop shows like The Moth Radio hour and build mobile apps for popular programs like This American Life — basically, they’re public radio’s largest distribution marketplace. That’s pretty neat! In conjunction with that mission, their Curated Page will highlight all kinds of public radio-related projects, like Blank on Blank’s work to curate and archive hundreds of hours of unused audio from interviews by prominent American journalists, and the recently funded Spanish language podcast Radio Ambulante.

  4. In 2010, the High Museum of Art in Atlanta commissioned Shane Lavalette to contribute to a new body of photographs for their “Picturing the South” series — a mission Shane decided to pursue through the lens of traditional Southern music. “I was not interested in making a documentary about Southern music today, but desired to explore the relationship between traditional music and the contemporary landscape through a more poetic lens,” he explains. “Moved by the themes and stories past down in songs, I let the music itself carry the pictures.” The thoughtfulness shows. CNN recently ran a selection of the photographs, and his project makes a great addition to the recently launched Curated Page for Light Box.

  6. New Curated Page alert! Meet Aperture, an organization committed to seeking, supporting, and sharing the work of visionary, new photographers. Their ethos, to cultivate a community around a shared belief in the power of images to reflect change and inspire dialogue, is reflected in project picks like the Martin Parr documentary Hot Spot, which follows the legendary photographer as he cavorts through the American South, a documentary on our cultural transition to digital as emphasized by the rise and fall of Kodachrome film, and the fascinating Afghan Box project, which explores a large-scale form of photography on the brink of disappearing in Afghanistan. Very neat stuff! All that and more over on their page, check it out here.

We’re pretty pleased to have their curatorial eye roving Kickstarter. Check out their page to see their project picks like the Occupied Oakland Tribune and a Seattle-based festival for independent literature.
