The Interview!
It’s time to reintroduce our guest this evening and get into the real bones of this particular show with our incredible guest, Michael Garfield. You can find him on Twitter, Instagram, and Facebook, or check out everything via his Linktr.ee.
Michael Garfield is a Paleontologist-Futurist and transmedia artist whose work helps people navigate our age of “global weirding” — and inspires the curiosity and playfulness we’ll need to thrive in it. As a painter and digital artist, Michael draws inspiration from his background as a psychonaut and scientific illustrator to create everything from murals to apparel, and body art to book and album covers. His multi-instrumentalist talents in music have opened hearts and minds across four continents, with his songs and fully improvised performances featured everywhere from PBS to COSM, Burning Man to Meow Wolf, and even peer-reviewed archaeology research papers to the Phase II & III MDMA human trials. Additionally, as an author, essayist, and internationally-charting podcast host, Michael remixes science, art, philosophy, and myth to foster vital conversations at the frothy edges of the known and knowable.
