He has created almost 100 episodes, and\u00a0as the current <em>MetLiveArts Artist in Residence\u00a0<\/em>at the Metropolitan Museum in NYC, DiMeo is producing 10 more episodes &#8220;interrogating the collection to draw out the revealing secrets and stories of the art&#8221;. He dives into details, fleshing out the stories behind the artists, their works and the times in which they were created. I&#8217;m envious of anyone who will be visiting the Met and can listen in the presence of the works as he describes them. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.metmuseum.org\/events\/programs\/met-live-arts\/memory-palace\" target=\"_blank\">Follow this link to learn more and to hear the 3 episodes<\/a> that have been completed so far. In DiMeo&#8217;s words:<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; padding-left: 30px;\"><em>&#8220;I come across something from the past &#8212; in a novel, during a museum visit, in a documentary, in some listicle on some website&#8230;that moves me, that makes me want to know more, and I go off and research it. The writing and production process, in a very real way, is all about me figuring out how to move the listener in the same way that I was moved&#8221;.<\/em><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"padding-left: 30px; text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #008080;\">\u2756<\/span><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">And finally, to switch gears entirely, those of you who know me well know that I am the definition of social-media-phobic.
