Mike Winkelmann: Inside Beeple Studios

Recorded at Beeple Studios in Charleston, South Carolina, this episode features Mike Winkelmann (Beeple), a digital artist who shares his evolution from early web and Flash experiments to a daily art practice that grew into the 5,000-day project and major NFT recognition. Beeple discusses using 3D tools and AI to push cultural and often tongue-in-cheek dystopian ideas, how the studio fosters community events and live performances, and the upcoming Synthetic Theater production that blends technology, dance, film, and improv. The conversation also covers his move to the Lowcountry, collaborations with local artists and producers, and the studio’s role in creating shared artistic experiences for Charleston’s creative community.
