Join artist John Wentz and myself as we embark on the very first VOXCAST together. John and I began this conversation via Voxer (a free app) on October 7, 2019 while he was at an artist residency in Holland. We are currently still recording the conversation and decided to put out part 1 while part 2 is still in progress. While similar, this is not like a traditional podcast, John and I are conversing at different times of the day, in different locations, over the course of many weeks and months. What follows is a raw, intimate conversation that cuts out the performance aspect found in many podcasts and paints a larger, more complex picture of what it means to be an artist alive and working in our current time and society. We hope you enjoy part 1.
