  There is a hidden artist within each of us. We all have a natural yearning to express
  ourselves. As children, this self-expression is a joyful natural process, manifested through
  drawing and movement without ever thinking about what other people may say. Yet as
  we grow older we often become more inhibited, frustrated and reserved.
  The FLY process is one of letting go, relinquishing control and permitting the unplanned
  and unexpected to take the lead. In this way, we take the first step on the path towards
  reconnecting to the curious creative child we once were, thus rediscovering our creative
  inner spirit.
  FLY stands for Free the Life within You. Developing this concept has turned my life into an
  inspiring, unexpected colorful journey, depicted in the artwork from the 3 painting series
  shown in this book.
  Deep Space - inspired by the Hubble telescope images
  Human Formation – based on Lennart Nilsson's inner body photography
  Cycles of Life – influenced by the everlasting journey of the human spirit
  I am thrilled to share my personal quest with you. Be my guest and FLY with me
  Have magic in your life

  Dick Clark had taken over for a TV show that served as "filler” and showcased different musical acts.  Young girls were invited to watch as the studio audience, but when they got bored they got up to dance and a camera man caught the moment. From that moment, American Bandstand was born. For teenagers, American Bandstand served as a replacement for hanging out at the local soda shop and listening to the jukebox with friends. Every episode showcased new music, fashion and dance moves. In this 1974 interview, Wink Martindale sits down with Clark to discuss the early years of the program.

  Girl Power - The Nineties...

  In the early nineties, riot grrrl exploded onto the underground music scene, inspiring girls to pick up an instrument, create fanzines, and become politically active. Rejecting both traditional gender roles and their parents' brand of feminism, riot grrrls celebrated and deconstructed femininity. The media went into a titillated frenzy covering followers who wrote "slut" on their bodies, wore frilly dresses with combat boots, and talked openly about sexual politics. The movement's message of "revolution girl-style now" soon filtered into the mainstream as "girl power," popularized by the Spice Girls and transformed into merchandising gold as shrunken T-shirts, lip glosses, and posable dolls. Though many criticized girl power as at best frivolous and at worst soulless and hypersexualized, Marisa Meltzer argues that it paved the way for today's generation of confident girls who are playing instruments and joining bands in record numbers. Girl Power examines the role of women in rock since the riot grrrl revolution, weaving Meltzer's personal anecdotes with interviews with key players such as Tobi Vail from Bikini Kill and Amy Ray of the Indigo Girls. Chronicling the legacy of artists such as Bratmobile, Sleater-Kinney, Alanis Morissette, Britney Spears, and, yes, the Spice Girls, Girl Power points the way for the future of women in rock.
