Yelling At Concrete

This week i get on my trolly horse again to talk adverts. But no so much how evil it is or how they try to subtly manipulate the day to day but more about how generationally we react differently to them. How as a society we alter our perception of media and how that results in some interesting behaviour person to person. So settle in as we talk capitalism, graphic design, tik tok, media, television and get all nostalgic about what makes a good advert and how fake shocked reactions are the new cancer of content.Ituneshttps://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/yelling-at-concrete/id1238765054Spotifyhttps://open.spotify.com/show/3T2OhYE07edgaBDXrm86saAcasthttps://shows.acast.com/yellingatconcreteYou can support the show and Graham by visitingwww.instagram.com/yellingatconcretewww.yellingatconcrete.bigcartel.comwww.ko-fi.com/yellingatconcrete Hosted on Acast.

Want to know how to make things? Well have I got the guest for you! Dan Does know how to make things, lots of things. Mainly horrific terrifying things but still...Things. I was introduced to Dan's channel by an avid watcher who mentioned I may enjoy his humour, work and overall attitude to creation and it turned out i do! Alot. So I reached out and the rest as they say is history. We caught up to talk youtube, creating work, why we do it. How we got into it and have an honest chin wag about the state of situations within the wider world all under the guise of some sort of comedy podcast. Dans great and would happily have him back to chat so go Likanscribe to his work over on his channel and follow his other platforms as well as I thin he's going to go bloody far.https://www.youtube.com/ @Dan_Does  https://www.patreon.com/Dan_doesItuneshttps://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/yelling-at-concrete/id1238765054Spotifyhttps://open.spotify.com/show/3T2OhYE07edgaBDXrm86saAcasthttps://shows.acast.com/yellinga

This week I sit down to talk clothes. Having been told that every sidewalk in Manhattan is a runway it's been on my mind and clothing concepts and me have a long history. Having been alternative and still in many ways am I've found through the years what you wear has a strong impact on what you're putting out but at the same time I pay very little attention to what I put on.So lets talk clothes, concept and comfort and dive in the laundry basket of conceptual clothing.Ituneshttps://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/yelling-at-concrete/id1238765054Spotifyhttps://open.spotify.com/show/3T2OhYE07edgaBDXrm86saAcasthttps://shows.acast.com/yellingatconcreteYou can support the show and Graham by visitingwww.instagram.com/yellingatconcretewww.yellingatconcrete.bigcartel.comwww.ko-fi.com/yellingatconcrete Hosted on Acast.

This week I had a real privilege of catching up with Graham Annabele. Whether he knew it or not joining the call I'm a big fan of his work and as I found the more I researched him I've been a fan longer than I thought! Having worked on old game titles like Curse of Monkey Island, Sam and Max and created his own original works in the form of comics and cartoons such as Grickle. One of the main things he's known for however is his work with stop motion film company Laika having been director of The Box Trolls and worked in various roles on Kubo, Pinocchio and Coraline.So I was plum blushed when I was able to get an hour with him so we could talk, animation, concept in creation and dive into how style and messages can be communicated through work in various ways. We discuss his upcoming new horror book for middle schoolers and overall have a lovely chat about what it means to be Graham's.You should definetly check out his work in films, comics and show him all the love.https://www.grickle.com/https://twitter.com

Look at that kid, he's a self reflective little tyke isn't he? It's true and I don't mean to throw shade at anyone in their twenties as we get it! You're going through some stuff you're figuring out life, you're meant to be!This episode I sit down to discuss how growing personally never really ends and you go through stages of thinking your cracked it until suddenly you find a new level, another time and space where suddenly you're out of your depth and don't know what's going on. Is it bad? Is it good? Who knows but we grow as people and reflect on what we did. That's the key part.Sincerely someone with a problematic early adulthood.Ituneshttps://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/yelling-at-concrete/id1238765054Spotifyhttps://open.spotify.com/show/3T2OhYE07edgaBDXrm86saAcasthttps://shows.acast.com/yellingatconcreteYou can support the show and Graham by visitingwww.instagram.com/yellingatconcretewww.yellingatconcrete.bigcartel.comwww.ko-fi.com/yellingatconcrete Hosted on Acast.

This week I sit down with musical prodigy Alyssa Payne who caught my attention with her song "Chicken & Horse" and then released a musical EP! which I thought was a fascinating as a concept to have a mixtape/e.p for a musical. Turns out it got even better as it's fully of dramatic, funny, slice of life songs about the world around us especially those who are younger. Alyssa is a burgeoning actress, musician and being into the art world and figuring it out as she goes along so I caught up with her to talk. Musicals of course but also the writing process. How plays get created and what it means to be creating in that industry and how people put their own experiences into bigger productions.You can find her albumhttps://music.apple.com/us/album/patiently-waiting-epAnd her on tiktok/insta/youtube here:https://www.tiktok.com/@alyssathepayne99https://www.youtube.com/@Alyssathepayne/videoshttps://www.instagram.com/alyssathepayneYou can just listen to the show here:Ituneshttps://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/yel

That right we're looking at face value of things. Because the world is simple on it's face, this is a man in a room talking about the thing right? Well I know it's not that simple but when you notice these simplicities you can start to do more with the information you do have. Recognise the important parts and the parts which mean more to you as there is less noise when you simplify the value of each object and interaction.So let us talk and decide just realistically is everything stupid?Ituneshttps://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/yelling-at-concrete/id1238765054Spotifyhttps://open.spotify.com/show/3T2OhYE07edgaBDXrm86saAcasthttps://shows.acast.com/yellingatconcreteYou can support the show and Graham by visitingwww.instagram.com/yellingatconcretewww.yellingatconcrete.bigcartel.comwww.ko-fi.com/yellingatconcrete Hosted on Acast.

This week I'm joined by Kristin Stone the artist known as Strange Folks Dolls over on instagram who I found through instagram. Her work looks at creating one of dolls for the most part which I honestly love!We sit down this week to discuss that "strange" what makes something strange to one but not to another? How do we find the media and content that we do and what makes us stop and look. As we talk everything from Rothko to Quay brothers we explore each others work and our interests so feel free to come join us if you feel like it.You can find strangefolksdolls at:https://www.etsy.com/shop/strangefolksdolls/https://www.instagram.com/strangefolksdolls/Ituneshttps://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/yelling-at-concrete/id1238765054Spotifyhttps://open.spotify.com/show/3T2OhYE07edgaBDXrm86saAcasthttps://shows.acast.com/yellingatconcreteYou can support the show and Graham by visitingwww.instagram.com/yellingatconcretewww.yellingatconcrete.bigcartel.comwww.ko-fi.com/yellingatconcrete Hosted on Acast.

This week I sit down to talk about the boogey man in the room AI "art". Now if you don't know about it and want to know how AI "art" works there is a very good legal and technical break down in this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gv9cdTh8cUo by Corridor Crew who are a visual effects company and I suggest you watch that for an in-depth of the tech whilst I cover the moral and conceptual implications of it all.So that's right! we're here to talk about stable diffusion and all the other tech tools which have come to surge upon the world in the last few months. I'll be covering this from the tool creation side but also looking at how from a fine art perspective this affects the work made and really the potential impact it could have on how we make and see work.Should we be using it? Probably not. Will it stop anyone and companies exploiting the tech? No. Will it ruin Art? Remains to be scene but probably not considering most of it wouldn't class as art...You may agree or disagree, lukcily for me art is sub

This week has been a long time coming! I found Jennifer on instagram in 2022 and reached out to her but sadly due to my life making changes without me I didn't have chance to catch up with here till now!But we did and in doing so got to chat about her work, the streets of NYC and what makes this city what it is along with how she ended up here. Jennifer is a talented artist working with reclaimed objects at this time and producing some wicked art to boot. So come join us as we muddle through why anyone would move here, what makes upcycle/recycle work special and how galleries and shows can affect people in different ways.Find her work and more about her here!https://www.instagram.com/jenniferpodisdeadhttps://www.jenniferpodisdead.com/Ituneshttps://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/yelling-at-concrete/id1238765054Spotifyhttps://open.spotify.com/show/3T2OhYE07edgaBDXrm86saAcasthttps://shows.acast.com/yellingatconcreteYou can support the show and Graham by visitingwww.instagram.com/yellingatconcretewww.yellingatconc

This week i follow on conceptually and discuss the circle of logic which is fighitng with yourself to just leave the house. It's the discussion of how the hardest part of going and doing anything can simply be getting out the door to do it as you're tackling your own own personal space and damn that space is comfy.Ituneshttps://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/yelling-at-concrete/id1238765054Spotifyhttps://open.spotify.com/show/3T2OhYE07edgaBDXrm86saAcasthttps://shows.acast.com/yellingatconcreteYou can support the show and Graham by visitingwww.instagram.com/yellingatconcretewww.yellingatconcrete.bigcartel.comwww.ko-fi.com/yellingatconcrete Hosted on Acast.

This week I sit down with NYC artist Tanja Konwinski who runs her own design company called Rose Hollow design. She is one of the first people I had a chat with on my exploration of the city since my move and I thought i only right we have a catch up and discuss the implications of that!So not only do we sit down to take ethics of creating art in a world with so much "stuff" but discuss empathy, city living and how the small conversations and interactions all add up to give up a better understanding of the world and people around us.Check out Tanja's work and explorations!Instagram: @rosehollowdesign / @tanjakonwinskiWebsite: rosehollowdesign.com / tanjakonwinski.comItuneshttps://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/yelling-at-concrete/id1238765054Spotifyhttps://open.spotify.com/show/3T2OhYE07edgaBDXrm86saAcasthttps://shows.acast.com/yellingatconcreteYou can support the show and Graham by visitingwww.instagram.com/yellingatconcretewww.yellingatconcrete.bigcartel.comwww.ko-fi.com/yellingatconcrete Hosted on Acast.

This week we sit down to talk numbers, being followed by concept and being able to see symbolism in all things. It's a blessing and a curse and one which despite my move has followed me like a ghost follows a group of teens.So lets talk concept, lets get self indulgent and ask am i looking for it or am I simply subject too it. I cant turn it off but then why would I want too?Ituneshttps://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/yelling-at-concrete/id1238765054Spotifyhttps://open.spotify.com/show/3T2OhYE07edgaBDXrm86saAcasthttps://shows.acast.com/yellingatconcreteYou can support the show and Graham by visitingwww.instagram.com/yellingatconcretewww.yellingatconcrete.bigcartel.comwww.ko-fi.com/yellingatconcrete Hosted on Acast.

This week I sit down with Zine extraordinaire Ryan Ewing who is one of the most prolific Zine makers I've known in recent years a single dad who produces, writes and reviews Zines from all over the globe he consistently pushes out his Zine pocket thoughts which is a tongue in cheek collection of magazine parody, sincerity and fun!This week as expected we talk Zines once more and how the medium keeps going int he face of so many changes and so many different people adjusting what it means to make Zines. We pick up on a bit of advice on making Zines as well as how we have stayed consistent ourselves. So check it out!To find Ryan and his work you just gotta follow these breadcrumbs.https://www.instagram.com/_my_name_is_ryan_/https://www.youtube.com/user/ryanfanclubhttps://www.etsy.com/shop/pocketthoughts/?etsrc=sdtItuneshttps://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/yelling-at-concrete/id1238765054Spotifyhttps://open.spotify.com/show/3T2OhYE07edgaBDXrm86saAcasthttps://shows.acast.com/yellingatconcreteYou can support the

This week I sit down to talk about holding onto the branch, holding on to the semblance of normal even when it becomes uncomfortable because change is a difficult process. Maybe the new year has brought the thought maybe it's the change of the seasons but it's good to review and remember that if you deal with anything long enough the body gets used to it even if that "it" is uncomfortable.So be brave and remember that you can change things gradually you just have to be prepared to accept the changes you make.Ituneshttps://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/yelling-at-concrete/id1238765054Spotifyhttps://open.spotify.com/show/3T2OhYE07edgaBDXrm86saAcasthttps://shows.acast.com/yellingatconcreteYou can support the show and Graham by visitingwww.instagram.com/yellingatconcretewww.yellingatconcrete.bigcartel.comwww.ko-fi.com/yellingatconcrete Hosted on Acast.

We're back! As long winded as ever we are back and chatting nonsense once more. As is tradition me and my brother have gotten together to kick the year off in style and talk about one of our favourite topics: "Culture and content!". Having worked in marketing and media we both have a pretty clear view of what we think of the world so this week we sit down to talk about how few creators seem to be taking risks and the ones which are are just harder to find now. You need to dig a little deeper past the crust of advertising and fed to you posts to find the little concrete gems underneath. So join us once more as we yell at concrete.You can check out Martyns work here:https://www.instagram.com/martyncooling/ https://www.instagram.com/depressomartyni/Ituneshttps://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/yelling-at-concrete/id1238765054Spotifyhttps://open.spotify.com/show/3T2OhYE07edgaBDXrm86saAcasthttps://shows.acast.com/yellingatconcreteYou can support the show and Graham by visitingwww.instagram.com/yellingatconcretewww.y

It's that time again, the last episode of 2022! I want to offer a huge thanks for those who's watched this year and joined me on the show and hope you'll continue to come along for the ride as this week we sit down to talk "failing upward". I'll be talking about my own view of success, my comfort levels with doing well and how I seem to casually keep going despite set backs or the world around me. I don't think there is a key to success but I do think you can fail your way forward and keep consistent to build something more valuable overall. So lets talk about that.Ituneshttps://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/yelling-at-concrete/id1238765054Spotifyhttps://open.spotify.com/show/3T2OhYE07edgaBDXrm86saAcasthttps://shows.acast.com/yellingatconcreteYou can support the show and Graham by visitingwww.instagram.com/yellingatconcretewww.yellingatconcrete.bigcartel.comwww.ko-fi.com/yellingatconcrete Hosted on Acast.

Not everything comes together how you would want, not everything can. Sometimes there is damage, sometimes there is frustration and sadness and overall it can be alot of stress and anger and mess to get things turning in the right direction. Lets talk about that and how we can take other views into our consideration when approaching any situation.We need to remember everyone of us is going at our own pace, spinning at our own speed and sometimes that will lead to lost teeth.Ituneshttps://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/yelling-at-concrete/id1238765054Spotifyhttps://open.spotify.com/show/3T2OhYE07edgaBDXrm86saAcasthttps://shows.acast.com/yellingatconcreteYou can support the show and Graham by visitingwww.instagram.com/yellingatconcretewww.yellingatconcrete.bigcartel.comwww.ko-fi.com/yellingatconcrete Hosted on Acast.

This week we walk the unknown, we talk the future and how to live with anxiety in a productive manner. How claiming constant over an ever changing chaos is key to a balance in life and finding that level of Concrete.

This week I got the opportunity to catch up with the myth the legend that is Ned Hartley. Ned is the current writer for one of my childhood favourite comics Bananaman. Which if you don't know is a very funny serial comic from the UK and you should all read the Beano because of it.But Ned himself has a long history in the UK comic industry having written for Titan, Penguin, 2000AD and many more he's got a passion for the format and so we sat down to talk comics, the industry and what it means to be a UK creator. It was an honour to get some of his time and learn more about his process which is quite distinct from long form comics and inspiring to hear about his journey so come along, grab a banana and join us as we talk "How to make comics"Find out who Bananaman is herehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3k1uec1JIdcFind Ned at these locationshttps://twitter.com/NedHartleyhttps://www.penguin.co.uk/authors/137810/ned-hartley.htmlhttps://www.beano.com/Ituneshttps://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/yelling-at-concrete/id
