This month Meg Parry (@MegTeksir) and Alex Hackett (@Miniswoosh) sit down to discuss a listener comment/question from @paige.infull who asked about our advice for anyone trying to get into the industry and how you can grow your portfolio without having a degree. Alex also drops a hint about something dropping on Nike.com on the 5th of March. We’re also joined by our third guest — founder and editor of The Daily Street and Editor in Chief of Crepe City magazine — Alex Powis, perhaps better known as Alex Synamatix (@synamatix). We discuss the fine line between “collecting” and just plain hoarding, the dilemma of To Share or Not To Share with regards to original content on Instagram, and how inconvenient those limited release, “special” odd-shaped trainer boxes are when it comes to stacking. We also delve into the importance of mentorship and passion projects, discussing Alex’s side projects — #SensorReplicationStudies and @stickerarchive — and our new favourite Nike archive instagram, @archive.DNA (FKA @nike.DNA).
