Brainstorm!

All art is just a remix of everything else. Stop worrying about uniqueness and start worrying about like, rising avocado prices or something.

An episode about why we procrastinate and ways to overcome it or something. I’ll write the rest of the description later lmao.

What IS perfection, anyway, and why are we so obsessed with it? Today we talk about tackling the awful pressure we put on ourselves.

Welcome to season two! Today we kick off Black Creative Voices, an ongoing series where we interview black artists about their work, challenges and dreams. This episode features incredible motion media designer and dear friend, Jen Estridge. Join us as we talk about Michael Kors walking by her desk, finding ourselves through design, school vs working life, Disney’s Splash Mountain, cancel culture (Jeffree Starr & Shane Dawson), police brutality, Black Lives Matter protests (George Floyd, Breonna Taylor, etc.), and more. Whew!

Did you know that artists are celestially chosen beings? No? Well they SURE AREN’T. In this episode we explore the issue with “talent” and how anyone can begin the path into artmaking.
