As a verb, to muse is to consider something thoughtfully. As a noun, traditionally it means a woman who is a source of artistic inspiration; stemming from ancient Greek mythology. The Muses were the goddesses of poetic inspiration, the adored deities of song, dance, and memory, on whose mercy the creativity, wisdom and insight of artists, thinkers, and scientists wholeheartedly depended. Today, a muse is any person who serves as an artist's inspiration.Reshma Eyafe brainstorm a future RantboxTV episode on the function of the muse in the 21st Century.'We dialogue around language, episodic form, and personal entanglements - each feeling our way through the idea of a muse and her impact on the artist, eventually arriving at more questions than answers.

A serious (though often humorous) chat on the now infamous early 90's talking point. Symren (Primitive Ignorant), Jo & Simon (Desperate Journalist) and Charley (Salad, Gaydad, Desperate Journalist) take us through the highs and lows of Britpop.

US foreign policy, celebrities hijacking social issues to further brand recognition, and further manipulation of public perception for profit and narcissism as an aspect of parental love are some of the topics explored. You have been warned.

How does an author tackle diversity in fiction? Martin Treanor, author of The Silver Mist talks with John Clay about the challenge of addressing diversity in his upcoming project. www.rantbox.tv

Social Media has become a social sickness to Matthew Gaffen of Hearse Pileup. His views on the government's dismissal of the music industry as 'non-viable' are two of the many subjects with John Clay in this miscellaneous episode of Rantbox TV.

Nathan Ridley (Hermitage Works Studios) and John Clay (writer/director) explore the manifold title subject in the context of online tutorials and D.I.Y culture's relation to the old gaurd. Do you need a producer? Not an easy to dismiss option, and there is a ton of reasons why. Enjoy. Hermitage Works Studios run by Nathan Ridley & Margo Broom and is based in North East London.

Primitive Ignorant aka Symren Gharial and John Clay candidly discuss the fallout of Grenfell, addiction, racially-based self-harm and the possibility of overcompensation during 'time off' from discussions on racism. All this plus a deconstruction of the vocalist, LE JUNK, film director Steve Gullick Photography and Bess Cavendish, all collaborators on Primitive Ignorant's latest single, 'The Ballad of Markland Estate'.

Alexzander Mazey (Author of Living in Disneyland) & John Clay (Writer/Director) attempt to answer the title question in this latest episode of Rantbox TV. .

How do we cope with hyperreality? Alexzander Mazey joins DeAnna Avis/Brujx and John Clay in #RantboxTV to discuss his book (Living In Disneyland) which covers Baudrillard, Capitalist Realism and the lie of pure bottled water.
