James Von Geld, an aspiring painter, becomes convinced that the only way to create meaningful artwork is to have experienced trauma. Frustrated that his life has been too sheltered, he comes up with the horribly misguided idea for an experimental performance art project in which he interviews famous artists about their pasts, recreates the trauma on himself, then tracks the evolution of his own artwork--he titles the work 'Teardrop Hunting.'Produced by Cappo InnovationsWritten & directed by Alex DiehlSound Design, Recording & Mixing by Cappo InnovationsAdditional Sound Mixing by Reginald Espiritu & Henry MayrTheme Music & Musical Transitions by Anteo Fabris & Stefan ReutimannCover Art by Marie PielOur Performers For This Episode Include:Alex Diehl as James Von GeldKapil Talwalkar as Dr. Abhi ShekarMonique Parent as James’ MomVeronica Osorio as Samantha RodriguezDanice Cabanela as Mrs. Frances KimDJ Blickenstaff as Radio AnnouncerSydney Guillaume as AMCA ReceptionistChloe Cappo as Mrs. Kim’s AssistantAdditional Narration by DJ BlickenstaffSpecial Thanks to the Silverlake Conservatory of Music
