Rendering Unconscious episode 366.

Rendering Unconscious welcomes author Reuben Dendinger and artist Anna Sebastian to the podcast! They’re here to talk about the book Cursed Images by Hyperidean Press. https://www.hyperideanpress.com/shop/p/cursed-images-by-reuben-dendinger

On this episode, Ruben Dendinger, a fiction writer and playwright, discusses his books Cursed Images and The Weeping Hemlock, which explore surrealist themes based on dreams and internet images. Anna Sebastian, a painter, shares her work, including the astrological painting “Venus” featured on Dendinger’s book cover. They discuss the intersection of myth, history, death, and the natural world in their art. Dendinger also mentioned his upcoming novel on vampirism. The conversation touches on the impact of Venus in astrology, the influence of dreams on their work, and their experiences in New York and London, highlighting the importance of supporting independent presses and artists.
