-
- Entrepreneurship
This week’s guest is Florian “Doc” Kaps, the man who quite literally saved Polaroid. The story of this incredible effort to prevent the loss one of the creative world’s most unique mediums is worth several podcasts alone (you can watch it via the documentary link below). As amazing as that triumph was, Florian’s current project is an order of magnitude bigger: SUPERSENSE. Supersense is his carnival of analogue acrobats that not only showcases a growing number of endangered technologies, but shows us how we can incorporate them into mutually symbiotic relationships with our digitally-powered world. Doc is a too-rare visionary, who started out following the footsteps of Polaroid founder Edwin Land -- the man who inspired Steve Jobs and others to greatness – and now charts his own dazzling course.
So TURN OFF everything else, TUNE OUT the rest of the world and DROP IN to NICE WORK! with DOC KAPS.
