Concept designer, illustrator, and music maker extraordinaire Alex Mandradjiev joins us this week to share some information about his influences, including David Fincher and John Carpenter, his thoughts on modern art education, and the power of nostalgia and originality.

When we reference the 'previous podcast,' we're talking about an earlier episode we recorded with Alex which got corrupted.

Additionally, we opted not to use Lights Out as the banner image for this episode, even though we discuss it during the conversation. You can find a link to Lights Out in the show notes below.
