In this episode I talk to Claus Wilke. Claus is a data sciene professor in the Biology department at The University of Texas in Austin that makes generative art using data visualization tools. In this episode we talk about what makes Claus, Claus. We talk a bit about how he started making art, what it is he does for a day job, generative textbooks, t-SNE, The Artifact, his AI art and the process around that, blockchain technology and all kinds of other things (including a short story about the time he came out to my lakehouse south of Austin.) As always, we had a great time.

In this episode I talk to generative/new media artist/designer Julian Hespenheide. Julian joined me in studio and we talked about his definition of design, why he considers himself a designer, how FSM works and what FSM does as a system, some new projects he's working on, his influences and a few more things. Was an excellent conversation.

In this episode I talk to Matt DesLauriers. Matt is a vocal proponent of Open Source software and its societal implications. We discuss his role in this ecosystem, how it relates to his artistic practice, how the blockchain factors into this, and how his tools are an extension of his ethos. We also discuss bigger concepts around the act of art creation, generative AI, FX Hash, and other stuff. Matt is an incredibly smart guy, and I love to talk to smart people.

In this episode I talk to Connie Bakshi. As a focus, Connie is using AI technology to explore concepts of humanness, lore and ritual. Connie and I talk about her journey to using AI as an artist, how it was growing up a musical prodigy, her background in Biomedical Engineering, recognizing that AI is an intriguing artistic collaborator, AI's role as the "other" and many more interesting things. It was an outstanding conversation to say the least.

In this episode I'm joined in studio by Raphael de Courville AKA sableRaph and together we call one of the founders of Processing, Casey Reas, to talk about the history of Processing.org and where they see that going. Like always, the conversation veered in many directions, but we did a relatively good job of staying on track throughout the hour. Personally, I learned a bunch and had a great time.
