In the twenty-second episode, Robert and guest Gabriel Santiago discuss abstract expressionism, a movement rooted in surrealism that emphasizes spontaneity and the rule-free process of artistic creation. The conversation moves fluidly from the technical abstractions of AI diffusion models and audio-slicing algorithms to the gritty reality of navigating the modern music industry. They examine the volatile nature of the business, from the struggles of post-iTunes era artists who have become the "weakest link" and "slaves" to social media trends, to the complex, trial-and-error process of coding software with artificial intelligence. Topics range from Gabriel’s painful experience of being cheated out of royalties for a Billboard hit at age seventeen to the innovative development of his VST plugin, "Sample Monsta" and they explore concepts like the shifting geographical hubs of global music and the profound resilience reflected in Latin American culinary traditions, shaped by a lack of resources.
