This episode of Bad at Sports Center finds our hosts,
Dana and Ryan are over-caffeinated and in the studio with
artist Maryam Taghavi. We practice Farsi live on air while we learn
about Taghavi’s flag project, بیست و چهار هفت or Twenty Four/
Seven, currently on view as part of Roman Susan’s Woman’s Club at
The Cuckoo’s Theater, which is on display in Roger's Park through
Nowruz (the Iranian New Year) on March 18th. We discuss the
artist's upcoming projects, flat experiences of time, and Taghavi
takes us on her fascinating journey to Iran to recreate a 1984
photo. More information about Woman’s Club can be found
