It’s no secret that I’m in love with learning, seeking, exploring. I’m infatuated with creativity, art, and the whole creative process. Above all I’m driven by the desire to be a better person and to make the world a better place, at least in some small way. Joel Tauber inspires in the pursuit of all of the above.
Recently, I got the great opportunity to talk with Joel Tauber. Joel is an artist, a filmmaker, and an Associate professor at Wake Forest University, teaching video art and film-making.
Joel’s work combines environmentalism, art, and mysticism in a really fascinating way. He does so with the aim of creating meaningful conversations. His great hope is that these conversations will help to generate a greater degree of social and cultural ethics.
Joel is also the co-host of a podcast called “Belt: A Two Man Memoir“. In the podcast Joel and Eric Wilson try to take a closer look at issues of modern masculinity.
Also, Joel’s project UNDERWATER opens at the Adamski Gallery in Berlin on June 22 and runs through August 17, with a one week break from July 20 to July 27.
I’m excited to share this conversation with you and I really hope you enjoy it!
