About The Visual Cast
From the publisher's feed
The Visual Cast is A uniquely visual, recorded live, hybrid podcast!
We interview visual artists of all kinds from all walks of life.
Every guest does a "set", where they can share with us anything - it can be a live VJ set, a deep dive into a workflow or even a show and tell of an up and coming project!!
Through the set we get to see the guest in a state of flow and comfort while we discuss, react and converse!
