Welcome to our first podcast where we introduce ourselves and the purpose of our site here. Points covered include education reform and how it may affect creativity, learning in general, character design considerations, Writer's block and many other little bits and pieces.

Our aim is to have such discussions on a weekly basis but in this beginning phase we would greatly appreciate your input as we are still trying to solidify what we're doing here.

Intro and outro are composed, performed and arranged by Andreas Kopriva.
