I’m also passionate about making Bay Area history and culture more accessible to a broad public. • I’ve been a journalist for most of my life, starting in high school with The Franklin Press in Los Angeles, where I grew up. While earning my first degree in English at UC Berkeley, I got my start in public radio at KALX-FM. After completing a second degree in journalism at Cal, I landed my first professional job at Marketplace, then moved on to KPCC (now LAist), and then KQED, where I hosted The California Report for more than seven years. • My reporting has appeared on NPR, The World, WBUR’s \u003ci>Here & Now\u003c/i>, and the BBC. I also guest host for KQED’s \u003ci>Forum\u003c/i>, as well as the Commonwealth Club in San Francisco. • I speak periodically on media, democracy and technology issues, and do voiceover work for documentaries and educational video projects. • Outside of the studio, you'll find me hiking Bay Area trails and whipping up Insta-ready meals in my kitchen. • I do not accept gifts, money, or favors from anyone connected to my reporting, I don't pay people for information, and I do not support or donate to political causes. • I strive to treat the people I report on with fairness, honesty, and respect. I also recognize there are often multiple sides to a story and work to verify information through multiple sources and documentation. If I get something wrong, I correct it.",

Her reporting helped expose the hidden price immigrant women janitors and farmworkers may pay to keep their jobs: sexual assault at work. It inspired two new California laws to protect them from sexual harassment. She was a key member of the reporting team for the Frontline film \u003cem>Rape on the Night Shift, \u003c/em>which was nominated for two national Emmys. Sasha has also won a national Edward R.

There aren’t a lot of us who can mount a Turrell show or a teamlab show in the degree that they did in Menlo Park.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Pace is not the only big art muscle flexing on the Peninsula. In the last five years, Stanford has built an entire “arts district” in the heart of its campus.

The tour was put together by the local chapter of \u003ca href=\"http://www.arttable.org/\">Art Table\u003c/a>, a non-profit that usually organizes special events like this one \u003cspan style=\"background: white\">in San Francisco and the East Bay. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[contextly_sidebar id=”pyeWbiln5qLQqPk75byBZVha284Cg9A0″]But that’s changing, says chapter co-chair Kathy Kenyon. “I think it’s real exciting what they’re doing here with this whole arts section, with the \u003ca href=\"https://anderson.stanford.edu/\">Anderson Collection\u003c/a>, and bringing over the art department so that it is directly connected with the museums here is a huge thing,” Kenyon says. And all of Stanford’s art collection is available to the public for free.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There’s more to the scene than the high profile glamour of Stanford and Pace.

Pace, Halpern says, could well be the harbinger of things to come. “That they took this risk to come here to see what they could do, see if there was a collector base they could tap into: very smart,” Halpern says. “But what it gives the community in return is this amazing access. You know, down the street. It’s incredible!”\u003c/p>\n\n",

The festival is also offering dance workshops, and a screening of the documentary \u003cem>They are We\u003c/em> (on Thursday, Apr. 28 at the Museum of the African Disapora) which recounts how an African clan, riven by the slave trade 170 years ago, is reunited through its tribal music.

Prisoners of invisible handheld devices, the dancers wear tortured, sleep-deprived stares and strut like robots. As the people of Cuba clamor for technology to underpin a new economic order, \u003cem>24/7\u003c/em> seems to warn against buying into a tech-utopian idyll.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11528226\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-11528226\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/arts/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/04/EJF_6954-800x533.jpg\" alt=\"Ramón Ramos Alayo and Natalie Aceves in Ramón Ramos Alayo's ‘Where the Butterflies Go / A Donde Van las Mariposas’\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/04/EJF_6954-800x533.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/04/EJF_6954-400x267.jpg 400w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/04/EJF_6954-768x512.jpg 768w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/04/EJF_6954-1180x787.jpg 1180w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/04/EJF_6954-1920x1280.jpg 1920w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/04/EJF_6954-960x640.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Ramón Ramos Alayo and Natalie Aceves in Ramón Ramos Alayo’s ‘Where the Butterflies Go / A Donde Van las Mariposas’ \u003ccite>(Photo: Eli Jacobs Fantauzzi)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Then there’s the melancholy but gripping \u003cem>Goodbye\u003c/em>. Enveloped in a swirl of turquoise and a bright red manton, with a sexy cry in her voice, singer Destani Wolf, backed by a splendid trio of musicians, wanders the stage telling us through song that no one knows what tomorrow will bring. Ramos Alayo’s fluid, acrobatic dance moves underscore a resolve to live in the passion of the moment. One of several forceful alliances in this piece is a duet of sisterhood featuring dancers Fredrika Keefer and Jillian Hibbert. Their bond is a glorious mixture of abandon and control that promises shelter in an era of instability and transience.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>The third and final weekend of the festival moves to San Francisco’s Brava Theater on Friday, Apr. 29 and Saturday, Apr. 30 and promises more of a folkloric bent, with Haitian dance, capoeira, samba de gafieira, and more on the schedule. The festival is also offering dance workshops, and a screening of the documentary \u003cem>They are We\u003c/em> (on Thursday, Apr. 28 at the Museum of the African Disapora) which recounts how an African clan, riven by the slave trade 170 years ago, is reunited through its tribal music.

"content": "\u003cp>Prince’s sister on Tuesday said the superstar musician had no known will and asked a Minnesota court to appoint a special administrator to oversee his estate, though the size of his fortune is unclear.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Tyka Nelson, Prince’s only surviving full sibling, said in a court filing that immediate action was necessary to manage Prince’s business interests following his death last week. The documents don’t estimate how much his estate may be worth, but Prince made hundreds of millions of dollars for record companies, concert venues and others, and he owned about $27 million in property in Minnesota.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nelson asked that Bremer Trust, a corporate trust company, be named administrator of the estate. The court documents say Bremer Bank provided financial services to Prince for many years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The filing comes less than a week after the pop star died Thursday at his home in suburban Minneapolis. The outpouring of grief and nostalgia prompted fans to buy 2.3 million of his songs in three days.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Prince owned a dozen properties in and around his famous Paisley Park complex in suburban Minneapolis: mostly rural pieces of land and some houses for family members. Public records show those properties were worth about $27 million in 2016.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Estimates of how much licensing his personal brand will bring in after death reach to the purple clouds.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“He was as big as they get,” said Mark Roesler, chief executive of CMG Worldwide, which handles licensing for the estates of Marilyn Monroe, James Dean and other late stars.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Roesler estimates Prince’s post-mortem earnings will match top-earning dead celebrities like Elvis Presley, whose estate made $55 million in 2015, according to Forbes magazine.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Will there be a business built up around Prince 60 years from now like James Dean? The answer is unequivocally yes,” Roesler said Friday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nelson’s filing said she had “no reason to believe” that Prince executed a will or any other documents saying what should happen to his estate. Nelson’s filing said she doesn’t know Prince’s assets or debts, but said he had “substantial assets” that require protection.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nelson’s attorneys, Matthew Shea and Brian Dillon of the Minneapolis law firm Gray Plant Mooty, did not immediately return phone calls seeking comment.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Irwin Feinberg, a Los Angeles trust and probate lawyer who spoke to The Associated Press before Nelson’s filing, said wealthy people usually create trusts to avoid the public spectacle of probate court. He said it would be unusual for Prince not to have done so.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Under Minnesota law, if a person dies without a will — and with no surviving parents, children, or grandchildren — the next people in line to share in the estate are the surviving siblings, including half-siblings.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Prince wasn’t married and had no known living children. Nelson is his only full sibling, though he has five half-siblings (two other half-siblings have died).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The AP did not find liens or mortgages on any of his properties, which range from a sprawling 160-acre piece of grassland between Lake Lucy and Lake Ann, to a three-bedroom bungalow in Minneapolis that is home to his half brother, Omarr Baker.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Prince sold over 100 million albums on his lifetime, according to Warner Music Group. And Pollstar, a concert industry magazine, said that in the years that his tours topped the charts — 10 years over four decades performing — the tours raked in $225 million in ticket sales.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>His best-earning touring year, when he took in $87.4 million, was 2004, the year he was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and two decades after the soundtrack to \u003cem>Purple Rain\u003c/em> went multi-platinum.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But what remained in Prince’s hands is, by any estimate, less than the sum of ticket and album sales. In every record deal, a cut goes to the label, background performers and music publishers, though Prince published and wrote his own songs. Concert ticket revenue is split among the venue, the promoter, staff and the cost of travelling around. And Prince was known to throw expensive parties.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Court battles in recent years suggest money wasn’t free flowing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In April 2013, Prince lost a suit filed in New York State’s Supreme Court brought by perfume maker Revelations Perfume and Cosmetics Inc. for failing to promote the “3121” perfume line named after his album from 2006 and which he touted, but only once, in a massive concert that started July 7, 2007 near Macy’s in downtown Minneapolis and ended at 5 a.m. at the First Avenue club, a famous venue from \u003cem>Purple Rain\u003c/em>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He was ordered to pay $4.4 million; he never did. Instead, plaintiff lawyers went searching for assets, found about $3 million in various Minnesota bank accounts, and used court orders to freeze them, according to Brian Slipakoff, a New York lawyer who represented the perfume maker. Prince settled for a lower amount shortly after.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It doesn’t suggest there was oodles of cash lying around,” Slipakoff said last week.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Prince encountered tax difficulties several times over the years, including owing back taxes to France in 2012, which he paid up, and overdue property taxes around $450,000 in 2010. In 2013, the IRS filed a federal tax lien against him in Carver County Court in Minnesota for $1.6 million.

The documents don’t estimate how much his estate may be worth, but Prince made hundreds of millions of dollars for record companies, concert venues and others, and he owned about $27 million in property in Minnesota.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nelson asked that Bremer Trust, a corporate trust company, be named administrator of the estate. The court documents say Bremer Bank provided financial services to Prince for many years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The filing comes less than a week after the pop star died Thursday at his home in suburban Minneapolis. The outpouring of grief and nostalgia prompted fans to buy 2.3 million of his songs in three days.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Prince owned a dozen properties in and around his famous Paisley Park complex in suburban Minneapolis: mostly rural pieces of land and some houses for family members. Public records show those properties were worth about $27 million in 2016.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

The answer is unequivocally yes,” Roesler said Friday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nelson’s filing said she had “no reason to believe” that Prince executed a will or any other documents saying what should happen to his estate. Nelson’s filing said she doesn’t know Prince’s assets or debts, but said he had “substantial assets” that require protection.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nelson’s attorneys, Matthew Shea and Brian Dillon of the Minneapolis law firm Gray Plant Mooty, did not immediately return phone calls seeking comment.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Irwin Feinberg, a Los Angeles trust and probate lawyer who spoke to The Associated Press before Nelson’s filing, said wealthy people usually create trusts to avoid the public spectacle of probate court. He said it would be unusual for Prince not to have done so.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Under Minnesota law, if a person dies without a will — and with no surviving parents, children, or grandchildren — the next people in line to share in the estate are the surviving siblings, including half-siblings.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Prince wasn’t married and had no known living children. Nelson is his only full sibling, though he has five half-siblings (two other half-siblings have died).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The AP did not find liens or mortgages on any of his properties, which range from a sprawling 160-acre piece of grassland between Lake Lucy and Lake Ann, to a three-bedroom bungalow in Minneapolis that is home to his half brother, Omarr Baker.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Prince sold over 100 million albums on his lifetime, according to Warner Music Group. And Pollstar, a concert industry magazine, said that in the years that his tours topped the charts — 10 years over four decades performing — the tours raked in $225 million in ticket sales.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>His best-earning touring year, when he took in $87.4 million, was 2004, the year he was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and two decades after the soundtrack to \u003cem>Purple Rain\u003c/em> went multi-platinum.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But what remained in Prince’s hands is, by any estimate, less than the sum of ticket and album sales. In every record deal, a cut goes to the label, background performers and music publishers, though Prince published and wrote his own songs. Concert ticket revenue is split among the venue, the promoter, staff and the cost of travelling around. And Prince was known to throw expensive parties.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Court battles in recent years suggest money wasn’t free flowing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In April 2013, Prince lost a suit filed in New York State’s Supreme Court brought by perfume maker Revelations Perfume and Cosmetics Inc. for failing to promote the “3121” perfume line named after his album from 2006 and which he touted, but only once, in a massive concert that started July 7, 2007 near Macy’s in downtown Minneapolis and ended at 5 a.m. at the First Avenue club, a famous venue from \u003cem>Purple Rain\u003c/em>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He was ordered to pay $4.4 million; he never did. Instead, plaintiff lawyers went searching for assets, found about $3 million in various Minnesota bank accounts, and used court orders to freeze them, according to Brian Slipakoff, a New York lawyer who represented the perfume maker. Prince settled for a lower amount shortly after.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It doesn’t suggest there was oodles of cash lying around,” Slipakoff said last week.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Prince encountered tax difficulties several times over the years, including owing back taxes to France in 2012, which he paid up, and overdue property taxes around $450,000 in 2010. In 2013, the IRS filed a federal tax lien against him in Carver County Court in Minnesota for $1.6 million. What happened with that case is unclear.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Records on file with Carver County, where Paisley Park is located, show that he was up to date on his property taxes when he died.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>___\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nakashima, an AP Business writer, reported from Los Angeles.

There’s some skeletons of concrete where you can see where the buildings once stood.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Financial troubles caused the baths to be closed down and sold to developers in 1964. High-rise apartments were set to be constructed in their place, but during demolition a fire destroyed what remained. Plans for the apartments were soon scraped, and in 1973 the National Park Service purchased the site.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Sutro Baths are now a part of the Golden Gate National Recreation Area, where visitors like Elmore can walk among the ruins.

So, it’s refusing, it's getting to the point of saying no, I'm not going to use disposable plastic in my life and if we as consumers shift that, then I think those who make things that we buy will shift as well. So, it’s about shifting perspective.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The use of inflatable plastic sculptures comes with its own headaches. Strong winds require the use of sandbags to hold the bottle and cup in place. Visitors tend to poke and prod the sculptures, requiring the artists to politely ask them to back away. And on a sunny afternoon, the heat demands the artists re-inflate the works using a rather loud air pump.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The appearance of “Natural Plasticity” in Pershing Square was made possible through funding from \u003ca href=\"http://doartfoundation.org/\">Do Art Foundation\u003c/a>, RVCC, \u003ca href=\"http://www.sharkallies.com/\">Shark Allies\u003c/a> and support by the City of LA Department of Recreation and Parks. After the sculptures reach the Pacific Ocean, the artists want to keep it moving. Their next stops could include Yosemite, Sequoia & Kings Canyon and other national parks fighting the onslaught of plastic.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>You can see “Natural Plasticity” on display in Los Angeles at Griffith Park on Saturday, April 30, and Elysian Park on Sunday, May 1st.\u003c/p>\n\n",

That’s why the artists say they need to be present with the art, to help make that connection and suggest ways to reduce the use of disposable plastic.\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"pullquote alignright\">'We’re not saying that they’re islands of plastic, we’re saying the entire ocean has become a plastic soup.'\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>“I’m sorry guys, recycling doesn’t work, because we're producing way more than we can ever recycle, and we're exporting our recyclables,” Cruder said. “Other countries don't really know what to do with it. So, it’s refusing, it's getting to the point of saying no, I'm not going to use disposable plastic in my life and if we as consumers shift that, then I think those who make things that we buy will shift as well. So, it’s about shifting perspective.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The use of inflatable plastic sculptures comes with its own headaches. Strong winds require the use of sandbags to hold the bottle and cup in place. Visitors tend to poke and prod the sculptures, requiring the artists to politely ask them to back away. And on a sunny afternoon, the heat demands the artists re-inflate the works using a rather loud air pump.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The appearance of “Natural Plasticity” in Pershing Square was made possible through funding from \u003ca href=\"http://doartfoundation.org/\">Do Art Foundation\u003c/a>, RVCC, \u003ca href=\"http://www.sharkallies.com/\">Shark Allies\u003c/a> and support by the City of LA Department of Recreation and Parks. After the sculptures reach the Pacific Ocean, the artists want to keep it moving. Their next stops could include Yosemite, Sequoia & Kings Canyon and other national parks fighting the onslaught of plastic.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",
