    Art is Not a Mirror™ - Episode 1

    In the first episode of Art Is Not a Mirror™, cellist, audio engineer, producer, and writer Rena Jones explores the power of art not simply to reflect culture, but to shape it. Drawing on decades spent at the intersection of music, technology, and creative culture, Rena asks what responsibility artists carry in an increasingly divided world—and whether art can help us imagine something better. _________________________________ Originally published as an essay in May 2025, this episode lays the foundation for the conversations to come.
