Colleen Hargaden discusses her exploration of subcultures and how to live sustainably, and even potentially survive as our climate changes and we move closer to apocalypse. These subcultures involve doomsday prepping, DIY culture, and tiny house culture, which she says focus too much on self-sustainability when they need to be more about communal sustainability. She also discusses how she's drawn to the open-ended aspects of making fine art, as opposed to something that's practical. She also breaks down the former life of Roger's Office, an artist-run space co-founded by her and her partner. As a special bonus addendum, the episode concludes with Hargaden's experience with "100-person crits" during grad school.
