Mike is an accomplished and talented portrait photographer and has run the gamete of photographing weddings, friends, family to high profile celebrities and is extremely good at what he does. So we sit down to talk art, photography as an art and how it's more than owning a camera or fixing it in post to generate the right image. There are layers of skill involved and a lot of work to find your style.

This week I talk failure and ambitions and how our brain can play a hell of a trick on us. I did couch to 5k back six years ago now and still run on the regular but after a month not running I was faced by my brain telling me "you suck". I could still run 5k and do so without much fuss but my target and goal posts had moved and I wasn't appreciating how far I'd come or even how just being able to do that was a huge goal a ALOT of people like it was for me back in 2019. So lets talk excersize, running, pride, self sabotage, guilt and shame and decide once and for all that if we're at least trying we're succeeding.

This week i got to sit down with Katie Weinstein who is one of the principle members of  @rawdaisies  an alternative production company creating, films, events and art movements out in NYC. Katie was recommended by a previous guest and embodies that passion you love to see in art of finding something you really enjoy doing and trying to own that whole process to make sure it's done the way you like. So this week we talk independent film, DIY methods and really discuss what drives such a project from a personal perspective for Katie.

This week I sit down with myself and do something I dislike. Document my work. I've always said social media and content creation is coursework for creatives. It relies on un stunting our own exploration for the sake of having an audience present when we eventually release something. So this week I sit down to discuss that struggle and maybe find advice in the comments as to how to document your creative process and how not to.

This week I sit down with Tricia Duffy. Creator, teacher, writer, singer and host of her own podcast "in ten years time". Tricia found me in this instance and we decided to sit down and talk many topic but notably the impact of the creative process on mental state and its value to cognitive health. Tricia like myself involves herself in many things and in doing so is completing a PHD on the topic of creative practice and how it can be a benefit to your physical well being in many way which are often overlooked. We share that view of how to tackle a society built for money is often as well to simply create accessible opportunities so it was great to sit down and get to know her and her passions and discuss just how one practice folds into another.

This week I sit down to talk a personal gripe. Often on social media i follow artists and once in a while I see a comment or post like "Why aren't people engaging with my work?" "Why do they like that and not mine?" "Audiences just don't understand my stuff". And it irritates me as they seem to have forgotten, you're audience doesn't owe you their attention online. They have lives and other interests and its up to you to make something which breaks that mold for them. So this week lets talk marketing. Responsible art creation, audience engagement and most of all how to just make things for yourself.

This week I sit down to talk grief, navigating change and how big moments can sometimes seem like they need a quick fix or a method you have used 100 times but grief is different. It comes in waves and can be like navigating the remnants of a broken building. It takes time to find the foundation again. If you're going through it right now or planning on making bigger changes in your life remember to be patient with yourself and make the measure of progress simply that you're keeping going to begin with.

Chapters: 0:00 Intro 0:47 Title 1:06 Meet the guest 20:49 Skip to the topic 1:08:00 Skip to the end conclusion 1:10:26 What is some great advice? 1:11:48 Who should I speak to next? We're back! This week on the podcast: Graham and his brother Martyn from  @AlternativeAdventures  sit down to discuss the volatile statement that creators should focus more on Curation over Creation. in a relaxed fit episode unedited for conversation betterment the pair discuss the need to focus on curating your online output and discuss early 00's web blogs, lifestyle icons, and how brands such as Vans monopolise on being able to push a "vibe" rather than a "shoe". Martyn's big want is for creators to think less about what they post and showing of their own work but more their personalities and how building a community can be more "publicity" essential than making the "perfect post".

This week I sit down with artist Marty Gordon, Collage and cartoonist and overall interesting artist! Marty was recommended to me by other people which is apt for the topic of the show but also as he has a fascinating background as a former minister and a strong love of community for art which of course fits very well with this show! As such as sat down this week to talk about the challenges as an artist on topics such as finding the right moments to create, storing work, keeping in the scene and how certain spaces can vary in the level of support provided to you before after and during a show. We are both huge believers in lifting up other artists and creating actual connections rather than adding someone to a follow list and as such it was a pleasure to be able to talk through that landscape of thought with Marty.

Maybe it's the millennial in me but I want bridge the gap in defense of small talk. It's a bridge we use with one another and in many ways in an art form in itself. Some are bad some are good but over all we need it to put people at ease and grow communication more effectively. And no you don't owe anyone happiness or politeness but we do owe people the benefit of the doubt and helping them when they are anxious. So this week we sit down to talk gen z stare, social situations, Gen X rudeness, Millennial humor and all the other things which will get me into trouble for even mentioning them online as an old man.

Creating installations, comics looking at graphic medicine and talking on a multitude of topics. We sit down to talk the challenges of being an artist in how to engage with that world which can be a monolith of information at times.

I am a firm believer that all things can be art, you only need label them as such. I also believe there is good and bad art. Something I think is important to remember when dealing with artists though is that art is accidental. There is a level of organic chaos which is resonant in creation and whilst I'm not declaring all art is a fluke or can be waved away or "anyone can do that" I am saying declaring yourself the best is wrong and saying all things were intended at the time of creation is also wrong. But hey maybe I'm just bad at art.

This week I sit still to talk life lessons, discovery and how the outside world really can impact what you thought you were teaching yourself. With talk on self care and injury it's worth taking a step back some times and making a piece for yourself rather than other people. So this week I try to remind myself that I have been through things before and will again.
