PAVAIN Visits #29: Come Sunday Edition 🎼 A *Strings Recital* is worth a thousand words… I hosted a small group to this performance via my ‘The History Writers’ meet-up—intended to be biography writers x strings experience, it evolved with the tide of the day. ‘Twas another #effort... Small steps. ✨🙆♀️🙏. Thank you to Mr. Michael Ligon who hosted us all at the MT Auditorium. It was nice to be a part of this education experience. 🎻 Featured were the following composers: Diane White-Clayton, Gregory T. S. Walker, Florence Price, and Fêla Sowande. Re: photos 🗝️ The photographer of the evening took such a lovely shot of me with Ms. Esperl... I’m still working diligently to get the credit situation sorted. 🤳 ✨ More photos will be on my personal log 🪵 Candidly 🤠, Doing the Do Ruby R.

PAVAIN Visits #28: Gotta love the ESPYs x Beautyblender x ESPN Red Carpet✨🏀💄🙌

PAVAIN Visits #27: Breaking Bread Presents WhatsApp’s Vivian 🤳✨🌎 I had a wonderful evening *breaking bread* with globally focused professionals during the panel. Guest speaker, Vivian, shared insights on brand innovation, cross-cultural bridge-making, and global solutions, with her playing a pivotal role within WhatsApp to build these solutions. 🥇 A mentor sent me the invite, as it aligns with how I’m connecting globally with artists right now, and in direct synergy with PAVAIN’s #OlympicStrategy (aka connecting athletes meaningfully with art; this effort is beyond me or a moment, tbh.). I saw direct ways I could apply those invaluable insights and asked Vivian in the audience Q&A what she seeks in a strategic partner. My intention was to learn how best we (*all*) could possibly support her global initiative, and yes, get to building more needed bridges! 🌉 The exchange was enriching. 🤝 💡Vivian's words on authentic connections and fostering genuine understanding resonated deeply and reminded me of family’s emphasis on cross-industry education and cross-cultural engagement. 🔎 Overall, the night was a testament to the potential of cross-border connections and the strength of community over competition, though the journey is clearly ongoing. 🧐✨🤲 I’m intrigued by shared economy via exchange as a support on this voyage of understanding. I’ve explored this exact theme for years via Mysr (formerly the business plans for “GiveMate”; use implied in the name🤷♀️), building PAVAIN’s infrastructure, and in my academic papers on philanthropy-tech in Professor Ingemar’s Ethics and Technology course as well as my proposed business plans for Fundoit (aka an entire IT consulting firm for nonprofits; my NFP pun on the firm Deloitte, 😅) in Prof. Martin’s Operations Management course as a response to the prompt: “Save the World.” I’ve believed that select elements from shared economic models and the bolstering of non-profit infrastructure could ‘save us’ for a while now… 🌐 One main through line in that research and discovery, has been that while explicit reciprocity might be rare for many who give freely (exp. like artists), it's vital for true collaboration, mutual growth, and valuing each other’s respective contributions. I found that solutuons to bridge the gaps are both out there and I went so far as to create a few. It’s discussions like the one via Breaking Bread that can help us get to a better balance there. I only hope that it fuels our work and actions ahead. ✨💚🚀 Here’s to doing the do, Ruby Pittman PAVAIN

PAVAIN Visits #26: Anime Expo 🦄✨😼 From spotting Cowboy Bebop (2nd to last photo) to Lord Farquaad and all in between, it was a fabulous experience. 🙌🤓🤠 I was astounded by the amount of art as well as books (particularly manga) dedicated to showcasing illustrations and design from all over. 🌏 As I learn of the likes of artist Junji Ito (who Merritt shared with us!), to the works represented by Japan Society’s Acky Bright Studio, it is a never ending journey into a culture plus a rich artistic practice and history. 🤩 Truly relishing on the experience and all of the wonderful connections made that both are meaningful for PAVAIN as well as bolstering the integrity of cross-cultural, cross-art form understanding. This type of exchange is salient to upholding and advancing artistic and cultural practices globally. 👏 I am thankful that through PAVAIN (and with the little resources avail rn) that I can traverse borders as well as patterns of thought and artistic craft - all from a local conference experience. If you have any anime or manga recommendations, DM or message us! ✨🤝🤓📚🤵♀️ Alt the best, R. Pittman #PAVAIN #AnimeExpo24 #AnimeExpo #Sharing #is #Caring 🤝✨💡

PAVAIN Visits #25: Founder Talk re: Podcasts + Creativety 🎙️🎨🎭🎬🎶 Sharing both long- and short-form content creates an open opportunity to engage better as both content creators and connectors. One part of my core mission is to educate on art as a viable asset. An accessible outreach strategy is absolutely essential to concretizing on this mission. We strategized (over a yummy meal) how content is best shared to a broad array of audiences. 🔎 I am further exploring solo in my journal how to do this for PAVAIN, and looking forward to the continued actions here as I produce, curate, and post all PAVAIN content solo. 👩🔧 Dennis is working on a solution to support content creators by aggregating years of PM experience + I am building PAVAIN’s podcast: Articulate from years of being "outside of the building" and listening to the communities I am serving and educating. ✨🤓 In the spirit of collaboration, it was imperative that we both shared how we could possibly synergize, as well as provided each other feedback to respectively improve. 🤝📈 That is what it is all about… 🙂 📣 We both are excited and curious to see what each other do. 🗣️ Alt the best, R. Pittman PAVAIN ✨🤝🎨🎭🎬🎶

✨🙌 We are absolutely elated to announce the successful creation of Arthur🐤, the first-of-its-kind art concierge. 🤖 🎭 🎨 🎬 🎵 Arthur represents a 24/7 solution for our treasured prospective members/clients. It is training in art, art history, and the art markets. It is pre-launch, yet post discovery. 📈 What Arthur also represents is centuries of time-honored research via 1) an aggregation of increasingly informed global resources and 2) emerging technologies on the bleeding edge, with future phase plans to ensure security and controls. While we have (growing) expertise on board, I believe that tech underlies utility and ethics, and I will be exploring the +/- implications of Arthur over time. 💡 🌐 Overall, Arthur is based on OpenAI’s GPT, and it’s applications of training are the first of its kind... ✨With its novelty, we are able to focus and dive into future phases focused on tuning as well as AI/ML ethics in 1) art tech + 2) advisory + 3) finance + 4) vetting art/businesses and 5) additional service providing areas that will compliment reputable offerings. All that said, Arthur could give support in a fraction of time it currently takes in the market. This will complement the tireless work of advisory firms, galleries, studio professionals, start-ups, art-sale service providers (appraisal, storage, shipping, etc.) and researchers. ✍ We will be opening up our *beta test* for feedback from prospective PAVAIN members (currently on waitlist) - that could include you... To be on this list, please either DM or email info@PAVAIN.org. 📤 🔔 While Arthur is not currently offering investment advice, returns projections, or legal advice, Arthur can be an intuitive help-meet to support in connecting with resources as well as tailored-offerings. 🤝 Respectfully, Sole Author, Ruby Pittman ⛏️ Creator-in-Progress PAVAIN x Arthur ✨🎭🎨🎬🎶
