NFT Artist Interviews with natrix

By natrix

Conversations between Natrix and artists in the NFT / crypto art corner of the internet. This is not a podcast, this is an archive. Interviews sometimes conducted over Twitter Spaces with time for the audience to join afterwards, and sometimes one-on-one just between ourselves. Also, disclosure: there is always a chance I own some art created by whoever I am interviewing.
