Joining me from London, Simran Kaur takes some time to describe her most recent artistic endeavors in still life photography and surrealism.

We also discuss how to use feedback to your advantage, and Simran explains how to understand and ignore toxic feedback. Finally, we dive into some of the controversies of social media and how we break out of the habits of scrolling and using social media for your benefit.

Welcome to 2021 and a fresh new Decipher the Media Podcast! Let's start out this year with some positivity as I sit down with musician Jake Horne and talk about the current state of the world, including what effects of the pandemic and the US elections have had on our lives. Jake also breaks down all of the new projects that he is working on with his bands Nephele and Space Weather and talks about how creating music has been so different with the pandemic and political distractions.

On this episode of the Decipher the Media Podcast, filmmaker Joe Bucci returns to talk about his new film project which he recently received a grant for. He discusses how he got the idea for the film, which he will be shooting later this year, and he talks about the importance of the message of the film, which covers the topic of regime change wars. After that, Joe and I dig into a more lighthearted discussion about wacky conspiracy theories and going down the rabbit hole of internet conspiracy forums. This segues into the influence of social media and cable news networks and how they affect different age groups in our society today.

On this episode of the Decipher the Media Podcast, Ian Allegrucci and I grab a couple beers and discuss how Ian got into cameras and shooting, as well as what influenced him and his work. We talk about how our parents helped to shape our lives creatively and how our childhood experiences shaped into what we do today. Ian also jumps into the subject of music and how it influences our lives, as well as experiencing live shows. Branching from major influences, we dive deep into the local art scenes and cultures and how businesses support local art in their own ways. Finally, we touch on the impact social media has had on the lives of many and how each generation views media's online presence.

On this episode of the Decipher the Media podcast, I sat down with guitarist and songwriter Dan Suriano to talk about what it has been like to write and release music for his band Nephele, his process of writing music, and his history with the band. Dan also talked about the experience playing live shows and playing with bands such as Thank You Scientist. There is a lot that goes into the music writing process and Dan outlined much of it from his own creative process.
