Can't Find My Way Home Episode 3: A Conversation with Nick Barone

Nick and I talk about his Garbage Art Seoul project. How it all came about, the creative process and the seemingly never-ending problem of recycling and what to do with it. We also go into detail on his recent exhibition in Seoul, the move-away from over-reliance on social media, into something more concrete. There's also our Top 5 at the end of the recording...with a bit of a twist.   Garbage Art Seoul We as a world entering 2019 need to start seeing environmental problems with a macro lens. the term "global" has rendered society passive. scales and magnitudes of issues have grown with the use of social media outlets. these warnings have become so immense that individual people become overwhelmed. unable to cure the world of its illnesses, individuals become defeated.  the global concept needs to be paired down to a local concept. a panoramic viewpoint must be sectioned off. The air, the land, and the sea must be approached as my towns air, my cities land, my county's water. We ought not to wait around for governments to make new laws. We must first follow the laws already in place. Simple steps toward a visual positive impact on our environment. Each individual is presented with a mix of issues. Each town, city, and country faces problems unique to itself. This is the power of collective society. Facing separate issues as one world. Together as these issues are solved locally, we will begin to eradicate them globally. This is why I started Garbage Art. Bringing to light the dumping and littering issues here in Seoul, Korea through beauty. Slowing the pace of life down in order to see the little things around us. I also saw how the natural beauty that already existed was being destroyed by garbage. Too busy and too concerned with self economics, are slowly losing the remainder of the natural beauty here in Seoul. I take their garbage and make it beautiful in Hope’s of one day saving the beauty that’s being covered up. It's always been there, we just need to find.  Social Media Links Instagram - garbage_art_505  Facebook - Garbage Art Seoul @garbageartseoul  CFSN Project -https://cleansomething.wixsite.comPlastic  Pollution Solutions - @plasticpollutionsolutions  The Living Room - @livingroomseoul  별보라 (byeol.bo.ra) Live at SenggiStudio https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p49w7...  You can follow Can't Find My Way Home instagram - cant.findmywayhome Facebook -@expatmusicpod Spotify - https://open.spotify.com/show/6qCrwzUWNnqsBDy0Tijf4s Soundcloud  -https://soundcloud.com/craig-branch-241101818/episode-1-you-cant-finish-music-david-tizzard Theme music:  Surf Shimmy Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com) Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 3.0 http://creativecommons.org/licenses/b...  Mamas - Josh Lippi and The Overtimers
