The Electrician by Boris Eldagsen
Hey everyone,
This week, I'm thrilled to present pioneering German artist and agitator Boris Eldagsen on the Podcast.
ποΈ LISTEN HERE!
Boris's work has exploded into global recognition this year after winning - and then rejecting - the Sony World Photography Award.
It thrust his AI-generated images to the forefront of discussions around the topic of AI. Since then, he's become a figurehead for artists worldwide, gaining ubiquitous coverage from The Guardian to Al Jazeera.Β
And generating over a billion clicks.
Iβve known Boris for a decade, and welcoming him onto the show was a moving moment in our friendship.
To celebrate it, the team went full Joe Rogan on the film production - just click the photo to witness the madness!
In todayβs episode, Boris dives deep into:
π€ The concept of authenticity in the AI Age
π His remarkable journey from underground artist to global acclaim
π The audacious stance he took regarding the Sony Awards
π His eclectic philosophy, drawing from Jungian psychology and Eastern mysticism
π€ The art of building community in the digital economy
Whether you're an artist navigating the AI landscape or figuring it out in business, this episode is for you.
As usual, reviews or ratings are greatly appreciated.
With love,
Jim
