Speech Acts is the podcast of Pratt Fine Arts' Project Third (P3). Each semester, a faculty member sits down with artists, curators, and cultural producers whose work engages deeply with social, political, and community-based issues. These conversations explore practices that defy traditional categories, experiment across disciplines, and respond to the urgent conditions of our time.

Speech Acts features original music by Alejandra Tokatlian.

About Project Third (P3)

Pratt Fine Arts Forum for Research & Community Engagement

Project Third (P3) is a Pratt Fine Arts forum for students, visiting artists, academics, and activists whose work is research-based, socially engaged, and politically involved. P3 seeks to promote substantial interdisciplinary collaborations between Pratt’s Fine Arts and other departments, as well as meaningful collaborations with communities outside Pratt Institute. Located at Dekalb Gallery on campus, P3’s multiple programs include artist residencies, exhibitions, workshops, seminars, performances, lectures, and student-led engagements. P3’s mission is to offer Pratt Institute students and their larger communities’ access to visiting artists, academics, activists, and others whose practices are motivated by a desire to instigate social and cultural change.

  • Macon Reed: Heart and Teeth
    Mar 6 2026

    Macon Reed is a New Orleans-based artist working in sculpture, video, painting, and social practice, for projects that bridge participatory approaches with intensive object-making and research. Their work has been shown at venues such as Transmediale Vorspiel (Berlin), La Patinoire Royale (Brussels), the University of New South Wales Gallery (Sydney), Wattis Center for Contemporary Arts (San Francisco), Museum of Art and Design NYC, Chicago Underground Film Festival, and the Ogden Museum of Southern Art (New Orleans).

    Reed studied Physical Theater at Dah International Theatre School (Belgrade), Radio Documentary at Salt Institute for Documentary Studies (Maine), and Socially-Engaged Arts at The Kitchen (NYC). They've attended residencies and fellowship programs at Royal Academy of Arts (London), Eyebeam Center for Art + Technology, Amherst College, Center for Craft (North Carolina), Lower Manhattan Cultural Council, and Skowhegan School of Painting and Sculpture.

    Reed's practice creates spaces for collective imagination: opportunities to envision solutions to shared concerns, inspire collective action, and connect dots between seemingly divergent histories and experiences.

  • Taja Cheek: Sonic Rapture
    May 2 2025

    Today, Associate Professor and artist Carlos Motta speaks with Taja Cheek, a Brooklyn-born curator and musician based in New York City.

    Taja is presently Artistic Director of Performance Space New York, a radical interdisciplinary performance institution in the East Village, founded in 1980 as PS122 and is also a multi-instrumentalist and songwriter who frequently records and performs under the name L’Rain.

    Taja was guest curator for the 2024 Whitney Biennial performance program and led performance programs at MoMA PS1, including Warm Up, a summer outdoor music series that the museum has hosted in its courtyard since 1998, and Sunday Sessions, an interdisciplinary performance series. As a curator Taja has championed the creation of new performance works and has worked closely with artists for many years.

    Experimental and emotive, her music explores composition and structure and addresses themes of grief, identity, emotion and experience.
