Informazioni su questo podcast
We are living through the most significant shift in human creativity since Gutenberg. While may are stuck in a conversation about fear, replacement and redundancy the Firehouse Salon is having a different conversation entirely.
Each episode brings together unexpected guests at the intersection of creativity, science, art, technology and innovation, curious people who are leaning into this moment rather than away from it.
This is the age of the Tediophobe: people driven by a desire to explore, to make something worth making. The Firehouse Salon is their podcast.
