Prismacast

We're back from our (unexpected) absence! And of course, we've got to address the elephant in the room - diseases and epidemics! From the Black Plague to the AIDS epidemic, Michael Kay and Kris discuss how previous diseases influenced the art world.

Kris and Michael K talk about all things illustration. What it really is, what fields of work it encompasses, and whether to school or not to school. Michael K discovers the magical Rody Horse in a Japanese dollar store, and Kris tells her latest live lobster encounter.

We welcome special guest Jenny Miller, creator of The Japricorn! Jenny talks about starting this awesome jewelry store business from the ground up (and believe us, she had quite the hustle even back in her school days). We chat about what kinds of products she makes and sells, and where you can find and buy her work. Jenny and Kris announce a special collaboration project. Check out her website: https://www.thejapricorn.com/, and follow her on Instagram: @TheJapricorn

What the heck is up with some of the weirdest art content in modern history? Home to some of the strangest art objects and performances, Dada is a cultural icon and the symbol of an age. Does that sounds fancy? GOOD--click in and come hang with us as we talk urinals, falling paper, and cardboarded-guys spouting gibberish.

Have you ever wondered what you should or shouldn’t do when going to an art gallery? Kris and Michael Kay discuss some common gallery etiquette in this week’s episode. What should you wear?
