What happens when creativity meets technology? Join us as we explore this fascinating intersection with our special guest, Doug, a seasoned filmmaker and passionate advocate for street art and muralism. We unpick the evolution of this dynamic art form and its journey from vibrant community expression to a tool in the hands of big brands. Doug brings his unique perspective from behind the lens, sharing insights on the art scene in the southeast of England and how the influx of international artists continues to inject fresh ideas into the mix. 

Beyond the aesthetic, we also delve into the business side of creativity. Doug takes us through his journey as a successful freelance videographer, sharing valuable tips on networking, social media engagement, and how to overcome the challenges that often stifle creatives. Moreover, we learn about his experience curating a festival in Kosovo, a venture that deepened his appreciation for art's transformative power and the potential of it as a tool for community engagement and social consciousness.

And of course, in today's world, no discussion on creativity is complete without addressing the role of technology. How is AI shaping the art world, and how can it aid artists? We delve into these pressing questions, while also exploring the importance of purposeful art. We discuss a project in Kosovo that used a hybrid car to convey a powerful message, demonstrating the potential of socially conscious art. Wrapping up, we explore the story of artist Ian Strange, and the impact of his work on home and identity. All this and much more in this engaging episode.
