Hello Friends,We are very excited for this week’s podcast. Not only is this conversation rich, fun, and inspiring, it is our first-ever collaborative podcast with our dear friend May Globus of The Craft podcast. And the reason for this creative format was inspired by our guest, the one and only Jeff Hamada.Jeff is a Japanese-Canadian artist who hails from right here in Vancouver, or Richmond to be specific. Jeff is perhaps best known for his website Booooooom.com, which he launched in 2008. The website was wonderfully curated and deeply interactive with guest submissions, collaborative projects and the ever present invitation to poke around and be inspired to create something yourself. Booooooom quickly became Canada's largest online art publication giving thousands of artists and creatives exposure on a huge level.Jeff is many things: an artist, a film maker, games master, tenacious hockey player, and great pal to be stuck in a waiting room with. But, above all, he is very humble and approachable, and is always wanting to create community and connection. We were thrilled to sit down and chat with him about his upbringing, his sense of wonder and creativity, the future of the internet and how web personalization is a threat to our creativity, aliens, and more!We KNOW you're going to enjoy this episode!As always, thank you for tuning in!Z, D, & M Hosted on Acast.
