2025/04/09

I don't know much about video games, but the medium intrigues me, so I'm joined by Oddbug Studio's art director and environment artist Martin Reimann fresh off the hugely successful launch of Tails of Iron 2: Whiskers of Winter. I throw a lot of naive questions Martin's way about the role of a video game art director, the origins of both Oddbug and Tails of Iron, and we get into many aspects of creativity, passion, and the trials and tribulations of managing the mind in the cre...

In our 1000mph lives, it's so hard to listen and be heard, but deep listening is a critical part of the creative process. Being heard makes for unity, healthy relationships, and human value. I'm joined by the author of the brilliant Unheard: The Medical Practice of Silencing, Rageshri Dhairyawan. Rageshri felt unheard while suffering extreme endometriosis pain, which planted the seed of the idea that became the book. She wanted to use her position and experience as a doctor, researcher,...

The Creative Condition podcast ·

2025/02/05

Pogus Caesar is a national treasure. His many projects as a photographer, director, artist, and archivist transcend language and defy perfectionism in the way great art should. The sheer humanity and honesty in his images spoke to me, and I needed to hear his story.
