Summary In Impact Episode 208, southern California is a backdrop for stories about community art and athletics. We watch a high-tech team bring a futuristic 60 ton sculpture back to life, we meet people who create art from trash, and then we turn our lens to a game of pickup basketball. Triforium, produced by Chuhan Jie, introduces us to an unusual sculpture in downtown Los Angeles. When artist Joseph Young designed the Triforium sculpture in the 1970's, the technology required to completely fulfill his vision didn't yet exist. Today, however, thanks to an effort known as The Triforium Project, the sixty-foot high musical installation is getting a second chance to inspire awe. Zero Waste Art, produced by Alexandra Chan, we meet up with some artists who are doing their part to address the fact that the U.S. is expected to run out of room in landfills by 2036. And in Pickup Basketball, produced by Jocelyn Woods and William Nguyen, we go between Fairfax and LaBrea, where there's a community basketball court at Pan Pacific Park. On weekend mornings you can find neighborhood players who have staked their claim to the courts for an ongoing game of pickup basketball.
