Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Justin Hess & Maria Im: Violin Maker & Concert Violinist - Epi. 417, Host Dr. Mark Sublette
Q: Do you see it, Maria, as a tool? I know it is, but do you see it as anything else?
Im describes her violin as an extension of herself that becomes more familiar through years of playing. She says owning it gives her comfort and lets her care for it differently, especially after experiencing loaned instruments being taken back.
Justin Hess & Maria Im: Violin Maker & Concert Violinist - Epi. 417, Host Dr. Mark Sublette
Q: How did you become a violin maker?
Hess says he grew up woodworking and became interested in acoustics. After realizing that instruments were made by hand during a concert trip to Italy, he carved a violin scroll with a maker, attended a three-year violin-making program in Boston, and apprenticed with makers and restorers.
Brad Kahlhamer: Inside the Artist's Studio - Epi. 405, Host Dr. Mark Sublette
Q: What role does your studio play in your art and identity?
He portrays the studio as a sacred space and a constant, organizing force behind his practice, a place where life, spirituality, and making converge.
Naiomi & Tyler Glasses: Fireside Chat w/Joshua Rose at Scottsdale Art Week 2026 - Epi. 393
Q: How does your creative process differ between fashion and home products?
Fashion requires more planning and three-dimensional thinking for how patterns land on garments, while home textiles feel closer to traditional weaving and are more straightforward in terms of the woven product, allowing a more direct expression of weaving techniques.
Naiomi & Tyler Glasses: Fireside Chat w/Joshua Rose at Scottsdale Art Week 2026 - Epi. 393
Q: Tell us about the collaboration with Ralph Lauren and how it started.
The collaboration began with a long, iterative process starting around 2021, evolving from initial discussions to a fully realized collection in 2023, driven by hands-on involvement in design, marketing, and product development, with careful attention to details like textures, colors, and even buttons.
