Zack Scholl - Particle Castle Bubble Party!
Channel: kriista
Date: 2020-10-19

Particle Castle Bubble Party! is an offshoot of Gib Gab, which are free lessons/conversations/consultations/mentoring/time/support which I’ve been doing for over five years(!) now. The idea is to take what is normally a temporally and (somewhat) spatially-bound conversation, and turn it into a more openly-shareable video with media and links baked into the video which will hopefully be of interest to others.

Coming as a serendipitous turn of events that connected Rodrigo, Angela, Dan Derks, Sound & Process, and the lines community, the first Particle Castle Bubble Party! took place shortly after Zack Scholl contacted Rodrigo for a Gib Gab session. Zack was open to the idea of exploring the, as of them, solidified and came with a ton of questions and ideas that we unpack and talk through here.
