One of the themes we keep coming back to on this show is the idea of being seen or heard, and I think for both Sean and myself, that desire is core to who we are as humans. I think that’s one of the reasons social media has become such a big part of the human experience. In this episode, we’re talking about getting ideas out in the world even if it means letting go of them. We also dive a little deeper into what a healthier social media platform might look like, and Sean shares how context is the…

Deep Natter 33: You Want to be You

A couple weeks ago, we asked what you would like to see in a new photo community and in this episode we’re talking about some of your responses and sharing a few of our own. We also dip back into an ongoing discussion around real life creative communities and Sean shares the story of a recent evening he spent with a group of creatives in York at a Pechakucha event.

Deep Natter 32: I’m Not That Verbose

In this episode, Sean and I talk about some of the differences in the way we approach creative projects. We also talk about a recent email from Steven Pressfield who suggests that the fear of success has nothing to do with success itself, but in instead all about acceptance.

Deep Natter 31: Creative Habits

A new piece of gear for my podcast studio sparks a discussion around control, consistency, and getting outside of our comfort zones in the work we produce. We also talk about what kinds of features and, maybe more importantly, what kind of culture we’d like to see from a new photo sharing platform.

Deep Natter 30: Yeah, But Would You Pay For It?

In this episode, we’re talking some of the ways Covid has changed how we view, experience, and interact with art — specifically the collective or shared experience that can occur seeing movies, music, and other forms of art. We also talk about significant influencers in our lives and the importance of looking for creative inspiration outside of our normal sources — an example of which was a terrific collaboration between Brian Eno and David Byrne.

Deep Natter 29: Be Deliberate

In this episode, we’re talking about the importance of physical spaces and how they can influence how and even what we make. We also take the plunge into talking a little about NFTs, which hopefully will inspire not only listener interaction, but also more conversations in the future.

Deep Natter 28: Fancy Gambling

If you were an On Taking Pictures listener, you probably knowhow my conversations with Bill Wadman go. If this is your first one, you’re in for a treat. As is often the case when we talk, the conversation follows more than a few rabbit holes, from how podcasting has changed since we started OTP in 2012, to watching the Beatles demystifying creativity, to how it feels to see home movies of our parents who were taken from us way too soon, and a bunch more. It’s another terrific conversation and I hope you enjoy it. LINKSThe Rest is HistoryDominion by…

Stuck on the Hedonic Treadmill (w/Bill Wadman)

In this episode, Sean and I talk a bit about the past year and what we’re each looking forward to in 2022, which is deeper meaning and connection in the work we produce. For Sean, that means getting back to portraiture, both as a maker and as an educator. For me, it means recording more conversations and signal boosting interesting stories, regardless of whether or not those stories fall under the category of Creativity.

Deep Natter 27: What’s the Actual Problem?

In this episode, we talk a about collaboration and some of the difficulties around bringing in another pair of eyes or another set of hands to help bring our vision to life. And an email from friend of the show Maarten Rots sparks a conversation about the importance of objects and the things we hold dear.

Deep Natter 26: It’s More Complicated Than That

In this episode, we get our very first voice memo from a listener and it’s a terrific question around something that I think most, if not all, of us have struggled with at one point or another, and that’s imposter syndrome. It’s a big question and I hope we tackle at least part of it in a way that resonates with you.

I want to take just a minute to thank you — for listening, yes, but especially since episode 19 so many of you have written in to share some of the things that you are going through, and that’s really why we put these out – in the hope that they will connect and resonate with you and let you know that you aren’t alone.  I’d also like to thank you for the outpouring of support since I added the donate button to my website.

Deep Natter 24: Connecting the Dots

In this episode, we begin with a conversation around aesthetics in art and how aesthetics sometimes gets overlooked or even dismissed in favor of narrative. We also talk about some of the tolls the pandemic has taken on creativity and how for so many people it seems to have been the catalyst for massive change in their lives.

In this episode, we’re talking about the importance of ritual in making and how various rituals — both conscious and subconscious — appear in our lives. We also talk about the value of creating the mental space for the actual doing and how carving out quiet time can help our creativity to find its way into the world.

Deep Natter 21: Everything in its Right Place

Last week, we released a show that seems to be resonating with quite a few of you. In fact, we’ve received more feedback on that episode than any other episode we’ve done. I think it’s because so many of us are in the same place with trying to figure out where what we make fits, how to get it out there in front of people, and if we’re lucky, make a little money from it. This week is sort of a continuation of last week’s conversation, but we begin with a little chat about gear.  CONNECT WITH SEANWebsite: http://seantucker.photographyTwitter: @seantuckInstagram:…
