As of today, I’ve been self isolating for 3 weeks and 5 days due to the Covid-19 pandemic. In this time I’ve been checking in with some of my favorite conversationalists just to get people’s thoughts about current events as well as the role of makers and creators in this time of uncertainty. One of these people being Jared Karnes who is a cherished friend and prolific maker. We met while I lived in Richmond Virginia, around the time I became a professional piercer. I recorded the conversation in order to share it with colleagues and friends, with the intention of doing more of these as time and mental health permits.
It was a good learning experience and I can see where I can improve for next time so I’m looking forward to doing this again. In the meantime I’m also looking forward to the feedback and the conversations which could come from this.
