    Creative Hangovers, Delphi Fumes & Moon Food | Spill The Art Tea ft. Alexandra Beller | Ep. 79

    This week on Spill The Art Tea, Alexandra Beller joins us for five stories that feel like history, science, and the arts got locked in a room together and started improvising.We’re talking about ancient board games as designed cultural objects, whether you could survive on a single food, the emotional crash after intense creative work, the theory that the Oracle of Delphi was literally breathing trance-inducing gas, and NASA’s very practical menu for Artemis II’s trip around the Moon. The episode pulls from recent and archival reporting in Smithsonian Magazine, Popular Science, Hyperallergic, and NASA materials.

    Freelance Panic, € Shredded Furniture & Art Games | Spill The Art Tea ft. Mark Firehammer | Ep. 78

    This week on Spill The Art Tea, Mark Firehammer joins us for a lineup that feels gloriously unhinged: books with synchronised soundtracks, freelancers fighting for survival, furniture made from shredded bank notes, a Whitney Biennial videogame anyone can play, and a Turner watercolour stepping back into public view after more than two centuries.We’re getting into where art, design, tech, money, and creative burnout all collide — which, frankly, is increasingly every corner of the culture world.Stories this week include:📚🔊 Books plus audio tracks💸😵‍💫 The brutal state of freelance💷🪑 Bank notes turned into furniture🎮🖼️ A Whitney Biennial videogame🌧️🖌️ Turner back on show for the first time since 1799🎧 Listen to the full podcast on your favourite platform🎙️ More episodes at @nuacollectivewww.nuacollective.comLove Art ♥️ Support ArtistsSPILL THE ART TEA: YouTube, Thurs 1900 BST.Learn more about our guest:Mark Firehammer: www.markfirehammer.comRead our latest edition of Anecdotes - OUT NOW!https://nuacollective.ie/anecdotes-nua-art-magazine/

    Spill The Art Tea 🎨🍵 ft. The Urgency of Art 🗣️ Trevi paywall, BM AI flop & Creators vs GenAI!

    This week ShunShun from The Urgency of Art joins us for a brisk tour through culture’s current mess: - Rome starts charging €2 for close access to the Trevi Fountain (overtourism meets premium viewing).  - British Museum gets backlash over AI-ish promo imagery and scrambles into “we’re drafting guidelines” mode.  - UK creators push back with a major report arguing GenAI is already costing livelihoods and demanding CLEAR rules: consent, licensing, ethics, accountability, remuneration.  - National Trust hits its goal to protect the Cerne Abbas Giant thanks to global donors.  - Plus: the prehistoric weirdness of Prototaxites — possibly its own extinct branch of life.  🎧 Listen to the full podcast on your favourite platform 🎙️ More episodes at @nuacollective www.nuacollective.com Love Art ♥️ Support Artists SPILL THE ART TEA: YouTube, Thurs 1900 BST Check out more by The Urgency of Art: https://www.theurgencyofart.com/
