Creative Adventures - An accidental podcast

Fréquence : 1 épisode/25j. Total Éps: 17

A monthly podcast in which artist @stevexoh follows a fascinating and wonky chain of thought that meanders through creativity, philosophy, psychology, nature, neurodiversity, mental health, creatures, wonder, and whatever weird project is consuming his attention at the time.

Steve originally set out to create an accessible audio version of his Substack but quickly realised he had accidentally started a podcast.

“Ruminations on the turning of the seasons, creativity and neurodiversity, all to the tune of birdsong. Lovely.” — Podcast Rex

"Joycean stream of consciousness" - Frank Racioppi

vendredi 4 septembre 2026 • Durée 21:39

Saison 1 · Épisode 13

vendredi 12 juin 2026 • Durée 30:41
