Conversation with Young Mi Lamine
Founder, Agora Digital Art
Do you have any advice for our members regarding maintaining work and productivity while working from home?
Keep a routine schedule helps the adults and kids.
In the beginning, I was constantly interrupted. After two weeks, we all build up the schedule for the week.
The kids know that they cannot come to my office at specific times.
Have you launched any online initiatives recently?
I have launched the DATA Talk, the first one was with Gretchen Andrew and Penny Slinger.
Do you think there will be changes from this period (working from home/changes in childcare) that you will continue with after lockdown ends?
I will continue Saturday pancake breakfast and to bake a cake per week with the kids, and they do the dough for the pizza with their father. During the summer, I will keep our herbal garden alive. I will continue to go to the park every day with the kids.
Hopefully, the school year is almost over in 3 weeks, so I won't have to do the daily homeschooling.
Have there been any books that you have read during this period that you would recommend to the rest of our membership base?
I prefer podcasts: the usual Artsy, Art Angle, Hyperallergic, Art Tactic, Art Market Monitor, Dialogues, State of the Art, Art Monthly, In Other Words, The Week in Art, and more.
