30:55

A secret field that summons lightning. A massive spiral that disappears into a salt lake. A celestial observatory carved into a volcano. Meet the wild—and sometimes explosive—world of land art, where artists craft masterpieces with dynamite and bulldozers. In our Season 2 premiere, guest Dylan Thuras, cofounder of Atlas Obscura, takes us off road and into the minds of the artists who literally reshaped parts of the Southwest. These works aren’t meant to be easy to reach—or to explain—but they just might change how you see the world. Land art you’ll visit in this episode: - Double Negative and City by Michael Heizer (Garden Valley, Nevada) - Spiral Jetty by Robert Smithson (Great Salt Lake, Utah) - Sun Tunnels by Nancy Holt (Great Basin Desert, Utah) - Lightning Field by Walter De Maria (Catron County, New Mexico) - Roden Crater by James Turrell (Painted Desert, Arizona) Via Podcast is a production of AAA Mountain West Group.…

Aliandrea “Ali” Upshaw (Diné) is a member of the University of New Mexico Track & Cross Country team. She is from Fort Defiance, Arizona and is born for the Charcoal-Streaked Red Running into Water clan. Although Ali is academically classified as a sophomore, she competes athletically as a freshman due to NCAA COVID-19 sports reclassifications. Her freshman season at UNM was cut short due to the pandemic but in her first full cross country season at UNM this past fall, she placed fifth at the Mountain West Conference Championships which earned her First Team All-Mountain West honors. The Lobos finished first in their conference for the 14th consecutive year and placed third at the NCAA Division I National Championships. Prior to signing with UNM, Ali was a high school standout at St. Michael Indian School on the Navajo Reservation– she was her class valedictorian and two-time individual state champion leading her team to a state title. She was named a high school “Runner of the Year” on three occasions by the Navajo Times and like many other Grounded Pod guests, she is an alumna of the Wings of America national team. Ali is currently majoring in Biology and minoring in Native American Studies, with the goal of attending medical school or pursuing veterinary medicine.
