What De Angela is up to right now! (This brilliant idea is taken from Derek Siver’s now page.)

De Angela currently lives, works, and plays in New York City. Professionally, she is an Associate Vice Provost and Industry Professor at NYU, but for her now page, she will focus primarily on her personal passion projects which more often than not evolve around Prince:

• • Planning her weekly, online book club series, What Did Prince Do This Week? #WDPDTW
  • Planning her next virtual symposium for September 20–21, 2025, #Shhh30 celebrating Prince’s The Gold Experience and The NPG’s Exodus.
  • One day, she hopes to create some recap video reels for the following Prince symposia:
    • the 3-day, virtual #PopLife40 celebrating 40 years of Prince’s Around The World In A Day, The Family, and Sheila E.’s Romance 1600 on April 11-13, 2025;
    • the 2-day, virtual #Come30 for 30 years of Prince’s Come on August 10-11, 2024;
    • the 3-day #EroticCity40 that she curated at NYU in Brooklyn from April 12–14, 2024 (Fri–Sun) to celebrate the four albums that defined 1984—Prince’s Purple Rain, The Time’s Ice Cream Castle, Apollonia 6, and Sheila E’s The Glamorous Life—alongside the Purple Rain film; and
    • the 3-day #TripleThreat40 that she curated at NYU celebrating Prince for 40 years of the albums 1999, What Time Is It?, and Vanity 6 on Friday, March 31, 2023–Sunday, April 2, 2023.
