20 Unbroken Seconds

Welcome to the second "season" of the Museum at Tomorrow and other stories! This season will be my "Quarantine Commissions" - roughly 5 minute audio essays that people commissioned in the early days of the COVID19 outbreak. Each person gave me three words to base a piece on- the following pieces are the result. I remain ecstatically grateful to everyone who commissioned a piece during that very difficult time. As an independent artist, these pieces allowed me to put food on the table and pay my bills at a time when other work suddenly disappeared. === Commissioned by Makena Levine Field recordings, archival show audio, voicemail recordings, and vocals by Betsey Palmer and Jeffrey Nils Gardner Makena's words were: Quarantine, Nostalgia, and Family.

Gesamte Staffel 2 (21) anzeigen

Adam Blackwell and Amy Stirling met as graduate students in anthropology, both obsessed with studying the same dead language and long-lost culture. Their relationship was always... complicated. They were bitter rivals, ideological opposites, and even went out on a date once - though they’d really prefer if everyone forgot about that last thing, thank you very much. Then, they became the first two people in thousands of years capable of doing magic. Over the next five years, they became global superstars, both revered and feared. Their powers led to a tragedy unlike any the world had seen before. Now, the world's first two magicians of the modern age must figure out the truth of their power, its consequences, and their relationship with one another before they do more damage to the world. The Harbingers is a new fiction podcast created by Gabriel Urbina, directed and sound designed by Jeffrey Nils Gardner. From Audacious Machine Creative.
