Creative Adventures - An accidental podcast
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
