🚨 BREAKING: Leeds Creative Labs Announces New Residency Where Artists and Academics Can Stare at Each Other Confused for 6 Months 🚨
📅 When: Applications open now, residency starts soon (probably after everyone figures out Zoom)
📍 Where: University of Leeds & Yorkshire Sculpture Park (yes, real place, not a garden gnomes convention)
🎯 Who: 6 artists who don’t know what a thesis is + 6 academics who can’t draw stick figures = MAGIC ✨
Since 2012, this wild experiment has forced 150+ creatives and brainiacs into awkward partnerships — think astrophysicists doing improv with theater folks, or engineers trying to explain torque to a choreographer mid-pirouette 💃🔭
No actual art required. Just vibes, existential crises, and the slow realization that neither party understands the other’s LinkedIn profile.
Ask questions. Get vague answers. That’s the process. 🎨🧠❓

Born in Halfcourt, Indiana, Chuck spent his formative years shouting unsolicited advice at professional athletes on TV, firmly believing that his couchside coaching was the key to their success.
