This week, we're coping a little differently ! Following our AI takeover spiral a few weeks ago, we thought it only fair to balance things out with a timely celebration of what it really means to be human.
In this special bonus episode of Coping, we're sharing highlights from our live conversation with crafty queen, artist and author Martina Calvi. We sat down with Martina a few weeks ago to kick off the global tour for her new book, The Art of Snail Mail (out now!) at Coping Studio in an event made possible thanks to Pinterest Australia.
In this episode we hear from Martina, Alice Griffin and Jannah Anderson on all things creativity, connection, the analogue revival, and our enduring love affair with nostalgia, reflecting on all the things technology can never replace.
☆ Huge thanks to Pinterest Australia for supporting Coping and helping more people step away from the doomscroll and back into their creativity. ☆
