Episode three: Art, Arnie, and a whole host of magic
There is so much good stuff to get stuck in to in episode three!
Jenna and Ben welcome incredible installation artist Luke Jerram to the pod, for a fascinating conversation about Luke's artworks and the soundtracks that are integral to them. From his idea to put pianos in public places all across the world, to bringing music to children's homes on bicycles... and let's not forget the small matter of attempting to get the Birmingham Symphony Orchestra into a hot air balloon!
Luke's artwork has been experience by millions of people all across the globe and he shares his thoughts about the challenges of creating large scale installations. We also chat about the secret music of nature, and Gaia... his wonderful, emotive sculpture of the earth.
Ben's been pretty busy himself, and he shares more about lecturing at the Royal College of Music and Choir of the Earth's collaboration with the Bergen Philharmonic. Jenn reveals more about her own latest art installation and how it's all going with Velouria the cello!
Plus 'Guilty Pleasures' has a new jingle... and a lot to answer for! :)
