True Story – Courage and the Art of Giving Back

Friends. Please take the time to read a touching story by Jill Waterman entitled “Off the Map” about a fantastic student I met while speaking at the Brooks Institute of Photography. Her name is Michelle Nolan.

When I speak publicly, I often refer to the importance of giving back to your community. Michelle’s story and how she affected the life of a young boy undergoing cancer treatment, Rusty Cwiklis, is truly inspiring. If you’re looking to donate to a worthy cause, or you want to understand more about how to get involved and give back to your community, please read the touching story here. I don’t have a url to the story quite yet (it appears in the print version of Fotofile Magazine, soon to be online at the art site Inliquid.com), but the pdf link above gets you the story…It’s short and worth your time.

The show's logo is displayed on the left side, with "THE CHASE JARVIS LIVE" in bold black text inside yellow rectangles, stacked vertically. The right side of the image features a robotic figure, resembling a humanoid robot, meticulously working on a canvas. The robot is painting or drawing a grayscale portrait of a human-like figure. The robot's detailed mechanical components are visible, and the scene evokes themes of artificial intelligence, creativity, and technology. The background is minimal, allowing focus on the robot and its artwork. The composition suggests an exploration of AI's role in creative processes.Is AI the End of Creativity or Just the Beginning?

On the left side, the show's logo is prominently displayed, with "THE CHASE JARVIS LIVE SHOW" in bold black text inside yellow rectangles, stacked vertically. To the right of the logo, the image depicts a dark, moody scene inside a room at night. A wooden table is at the center, on which a laptop is placed. The laptop is on fire, with flames engulfing the screen and keyboard, casting a warm glow on the surrounding area. The room has large windows with potted plants on the windowsill, and there is a radiator beneath the window. The lighting in the room contrasts with the fire's bright, intense glow, creating a dramatic effect.Hustle Culture: The Silent Killer of Ambition
