Loved the episode with LACMA tech manager Morgan Kessler!
I absolutely love this podcast! I listen while I paint, and constantly find myself inspired. Great guests, great hosts, great topics. I highly reccomend.
Reveals where tech is pushing the art envelope. You can’t listen to just one episode. I’ll be listening long term.
I loved the podcast on Meow Wolf. Great job. It is always interesting to hear people at the forefront of art and technology. BardIonson.com
Neoliberals rejoice! From this podcast comes a world where all arti$ts are rich, and best of all they don’t even have to make art!
Low-quality recording. Lots of words but little of concequence. Nothing I heard would qualify as the "forefront of technology," rather tails from a decade or so ago.
Really interesting even for the "hoping-to-become" art collector
If you’re interested in how industries are impacted by technology then this podcast is worth your time. Discover how the not so obvious industries, like art, are being disrupted! Ethan is not only talking the talk, he’s walking the walk!
State of the Art has become my favorite podcast (sorry Tim Ferris!)
Ethan and his guests go through the next generation of technology associated with the art world. This is a great podcast to not only learn, but also understand how the next generation of technology is transcending to the way art is created and distributed in the 21st century!
I like listening to relevant art and marketing podcasts but have yet to find one that packs a punch until I found this podcast. Ethan does a fantastic job of asking questions that dig deeper into issues we as artists find valuable. The guests are leaders in their respective fields and provide critical insight not normally found any where on the web. Better get your notepads out. I listened to a few twice just be sure I didn’t miss anything. Bravo. I’m hooked.
The host’s enthusiasm shines as he takes us on a journey into the “State of the Art.” Fun and fascinating.
Highly recommend for anyone interested in learning more about art and getting unique perspectives on how art can be accessible and how it applies to very current topics like data and technology. Don't hesitate and listen now!
A great podcast with a lot of interesting insights on where the art world is heading and how tech is faciliating change! Ethan and the guests are passionate about the subject and engaging to listen to.
This podcast Really makes me think about the future of Art. Thank you Ethan and the Vango team for once again doing things differntly in this ever changing space. I highly recomed this Podcast
