Background Noise Podcast

Since the 1800s, people have had an undeniable fascination with oddities and abnormalities. People, places, and things that are different, for better or for worse, will always attract curious onlookers. As the “Dog Faced Boy” in early traveling circus shows, Erik Mark Sandberg’s psychedelic portraits of hair-covered teens are something that draws people in. Maybe it’s the fact that the hair is often brightly-colored and juxtaposed against the seemingly nonchalant faces of the teens as if it’s just another run of the mill day for them. There’s a strange beauty to all of his work, and I can’t help but wonder what it would be like to inhabit the world in which all of these characters live. I’m sure it would be quite the trip.

Episode 86 features Los Angeles artist Scott Listfield, the artist behind the dystopian astronaut paintings you may have seen in galleries, bookshelves or your friend’s social media feeds.

The series focuses on the music artists listen to when they work, what music inspires them, or just music they like.
