Chaos, Creativity, and the Soul of Print w/ Marvin Scott Jarrett & Chris Ashworth | Ep 369
Manage episode 498789323 series 2852400
In this analog-meets-now episode, Chris sits down with legendary publisher Marvin Scott Jarrett and visionary designer Chris Ashworth to revisit the bold, rebellious energy of the 90s print scene—and why it still matters in today’s algorithmic world.
From their game-changing days at Ray Gun to their latest creative collaborations, the trio unpacks how embracing imperfection, trusting your eye, and responding to constraints can unlock true creative breakthroughs. They explore the tension between ego and vision, the power of physical media, and whether AI can ever really replicate soul.
This is a conversation about art, anarchy, and finding flow—no matter the tools.
