Holden, Abject Demiurge is a podcast for creatives of all kinds to discuss their work as well as their personal struggles with success and how they have or are navigating them.

Episode I: Nicole (Writer)

WARNING: Technical issue - while I fixed the problems from last week, this week, there is a steady crackling (called clipping?) on my end. After the recording was completed, I did some troubleshooting and fixed the issue. It's only an issue on my mic, so please don't let it take away from Nicole's story. #workinprogress In episode 8, I talk to Nicole about how, while pain and trauma may inform our art, we are more than that as artists, the different ways of maintaining a creative habit when life happens, and the stability that exists within one's creative nature.

Episode 7: Alexx (Tangent #1)

STARTLE WARNING: The intro, transition, and outro audio is obnoxiously louder than my voice. #workinprogress In episode 7 (not 5, wtf), I mark the first Tangent episode, in which I failed to book a guest as I’ve not yet mastered this new time management business. In it, I discuss potential format changes, lessons learned from the previous episodes, and what can be expected going forward. Since I don't have a guest this week, I'm leaving my Linktree QRCode up for the duration, but I have added a link for my #ExtraLife4Kids donation page. https://bio.site/alexxtholden https://www.extra-life.org/participant/510041 You can watch Abject Demiurge: A Podcast for Creatives every Monday morning in video form on YouTube, Facebook, Twitch, and Twitter.

Episode 6: Michael (Coffee Roaster/Singer-Songwriter/Craft Rum & Botanical Distiller)

WARNING: Audio issues. My coffee-drinking, pouring, and thermos-ing is obnoxiously loud in this episode. Apologies in advance. #workinprogress In episode 6, I talk to Michael about so much stuff, including but not limited to roasting, music, distilling, and most importantly, NOT staying in your lane, pushing boundaries, and not letting others define your failures for you.

Episode 5: Jeremiah (Writer)

In episode 5, Jeremiah and I discuss the benefit of writing for one's own personal well-being, the effects of self-imposed isolation on the writer's voice, and how balancing ego and humility can be, at times, an impossible task - but that it's totally okay.

I'm Alex and this is my podcast, Abject Demiurge: A Podcast for Creators in which we discuss failures and rejections within the artistic community in the hopes of destigmatizing the conversation. In episode 3, our first official episode, I walk through my prompt structure as a proof of concept for any future guests.

Episode 1: Failed Pilot

I'm Alex and this is my podcast, Abject Demiurge: A Podcast for Creators in which we discuss failures and rejections within the artistic community in the hopes of destigmatizing the conversation. In this test pilot, I attempt to talk about the purpose behind the podcast and introduce the concept going forward. The purpose of this podcast is to allow space for discussion on failures and rejections within the artistic community in the hopes of destigmatizing the conversation. As this attempt failed, for the sake of posterity it, and any other failures from here on out, will as well. Next week I will try again. And every Friday after until we have a show.
