SUMMARY:Carla Malden - Shine Until Tomorrow (Online Event)
DESCRIPTION:Social misfit Mari Caldwell desperately wants to get on with her life. If only she could get there faster—specifically to Yale—and leave behind all the things that make her anxious: driving a car\, crossing bridges\, her peers\, her parents’ divorce. Mari only feels at ease behind the lens of her vintage Leica. Her camera keeps the world—and the people in it—at a safe distance. \nWhen Mari comes across an old scrapbook of her mother’s\, she discovers her white collar parents were once blue denim hippies. She ends up fighting with her mother and storming out. She pedals her bicycle into a downpour\, swerves to avoid an oncoming jeep\, and flies smack into a tree. Mari climbs into an abandoned VW van bearing the ghost of a psychedelic paint job\, and passes out. \nThe next morning\, Mari wakes up to the sound of music. A young couple wander through the glen like hippie gypsies\, playing recorder and tambourine. Mari accepts their offer of a ride into San Francisco. But something is wrong; Mari can’t quite figure out what. The skyline\, her father’s address\, the music on the radio. Everything is slightly off. Except Jimmy\, the driver of the van. There’s something about him that calms her inner chatter. Only after she says good-bye to the merry band and runs headlong into a war protest does Mari being to realize: it is June\, 1967. \nIn the epicenter of the Summer of Love\, Mari makes friends with the would-be rock band\, meets the grandfather she never knew\, and falls in love. In spite of herself\, Mari discovers that love changes everything. It even changes her. \nA fun and touching novel about the people who raise us\, the times that define us\, and the stumbling blocks on our way to being a grown-up\, Shine Until Tomorrow tells the story of a girl obsessed with the future who must visit the past to learn to live in the present. \nRaised in Los Angeles\, Carla Malden began her career working in motion picture production and development before becoming a screenwriter. Along with her father\, Academy Award winning-actor Karl Malden\, she co-authored his critically acclaimed memoir When Do I Start? More recently\, Malden published Afterimage: A Brokenhearted Memoir of a Charmed Life\, her own fiercely personal account of battling the before and surviving the after of losing her first husband to cancer. Afterimage is a journey through grief to gratitude that alerts an entire generation: this is not your mother’s widowhood. Carla’s feature writing has appeared in the Los Angeles Times\, highlighting the marvels and foibles of Southern California and Hollywood. She sits on the Board of the Geffen Playhouse. Her first novel\, Search Heartache\, came out from Rare Bird Books in 2019. Shine Until Tomorrow is her second novel. Carla Malden lives in Brentwood with her husband and ten minutes (depending on traffic) from her daughter.

SUMMARY:Sky Nelson-Isaacs: Leap to Wholeness
DESCRIPTION:The Dance Palace presents local Sky Nelson-Isaacs for a presentation of his latest book\, Leap to Wholeness (North Atlantic Books). \nThis is a free event. \nREGISTER HERE \nAbout Leap to Wholeness\nThe reductionism and materialism of our modern world make it easy to imagine everything can be cleanly broken down into smaller and smaller parts. Yet the straightforward example of light in a hologram\, which can’t be reduced to its parts\, points to an underlying interconnected reality–a wholeness. Physicist Sky Nelson-Isaacs uses numerous familiar examples–rainbows\, music\, photography–to illustrate a fundamental wholeness found in nature. \nJust as light is filtered as it passes through a filmstrip\, Nelson-Isaacs points out that our human experience is filtered through thoughts and feelings. This view provides an explanation as to why\, in our daily lived reality\, we can feel so broken and not-whole. Nelson-Isaacs weaves together cutting-edge ideas into the nature of space and time and original research\, with a compelling message of urgency. The filters we use to make choices everyday hide important information from us\, leading us away from experiences of flow. Through synchronicities\, we are led to life lessons tailored to our readiness for change. Nelson-Isaacs reconsiders the view of time itself\, suggesting that we live not just in this moment but on a timeline of history\, part of a wave moving from our past into our future. Every choice we make shifts what is available to us. Can we learn to rethink our lives and reality to remove our filters and realize the wholeness that we have inherent in ourselves and in our world? Yes\, says Nelson-Isaacs–and once we do that\, we can use the multiverse of possibilities to make choices that help us heal and grow into a greater sense of ourselves. \nAbout Sky Nelson-Isaacs\nSKY NELSON-ISAACS is a theoretical physicist\, speaker\, author\, and musician. He has a masters degree in physics from San Francisco State University\, with a thesis in String Theory\, and a BS in physics from UC Berkeley. Nelson-Isaacs has dedicated his life to finding his own sense of purpose\, beginning as a student of the Yogic master Sri Swami Satchidananda when he was less than five years old. Discovering an early fascination with holograms and some of the most fundamental questions in physics\, he has sought for over two decades to establish a connection between synchronicity\, physics\, and real life using research and original ideas. His most recent research has been published in the scientific journal Quantum Reports. An educator with nine years of classroom experience\, Nelson-Isaacs is also a multi-instrumentalist and professional performer of award-winning original musical compositions
