CalArts Podcasts

For this episode, we had the opportunity to talk to CalArts alum Claire Marie Vogel (Film/Video BFA 10)  about her online exhibition called, Artists in Isolation. 

Over the past year or so, Vogel interviewed 31 musicians, including Allen Stone, Suzi Analogue and Silversun Pickups, about their lives and work during the pandemic. 

She conducted photoshoots via Facetime and interviews over text, and the resulting work is a thoughtful time capsule of an unforgettable moment in our collective history. 

We also chatted about Reflective Refuge, her artist collective that focuses on the relationship between music and technology, her thoughts on the post-COVID music industry and a  pandemic rescue pup named after a famous personal injury lawyer. 

You may hear him a time or two during the interview (the dog, not the lawyer).

To see more of Vogel's work, visit CalArts alumni magazine, The Pool (Issue 9).
