Vesperisms Episode 4: Perception

In this episode, we pull back from my planned episode about censorship to lay the groundwork for why it matters. Here I'm going deeper into the first principle of Vesperisms: Artists SEE. We're exploring a "pathway" of the artistic process from perception through creation. Then and only then can we see why censorship and curtailments on free speech are anathema to artists.

Vesperisms: The Art of Thinking for Yourself is the podcast to help you make sense of your place in this crazy world by reclaiming an artistic worldview. Everything around us is trying to push us into boxes, but that's not how artists' minds work. Let's get off that detour and back on the main road to thinking for ourselves: as artists.
