Fleeting, Jetty, Decasia

Studio 360

Studio 360 rescues the fleeting moments. Kurt Andersen and art critic Marcia Tucker look at art that’s ephemeral. At Utah’s Great Salt Lake, Robert Smithson’s Spiral Jetty is visible again, after being submerged off and on for almost three decades. A filmmaker revels in the toxic beauty of decaying celluloid. And preservationists scramble to record the vanishing moments of a dance.

Do you support journalism that strengthens our democracy?

At The World, we believe strongly that human-centered journalism is at the heart of an informed public and a strong democracy. We see democracy and journalism as two sides of the same coin. If you care about one, it is imperative to care about the other.

Every day, our nonprofit newsroom seeks to inform and empower listeners and hold the powerful accountable. Neither would be possible without the support of listeners like you. If you believe in our work, will you give today? We need your help now more than ever!
