  1. 010: In The Waste Land Between a Day Job and Dream Job

    Nine months ago, I was out of a job, fricasseed by my own wee media market, and generally peeking down the double barrel of “destiny, interrupted.” I was at the lowest point I'd ever been, which is saying something since I was a teenage telemarketer. I was lower than Dante’s Inferno, I was…

  2. 009: It's Never Too Late to Be What You Might Have Been

    I remember when I was first on the periphery of what I guess we could call my screenwriting career and some Hollywood dickhead asked me “What’s your quote?” He meant “what’s your rate, your fee, your market value” — all of which was zero at the time. But what I thought he was after was more akin…

  3. 008: Keep the Aspidistra Dying: I'm an Artist, Not a Creative Entrepreneur

    When you’re a broke-ass-art-person, there’s about million podcasts and blogs and online courses encouraging you to create podcasts and blogs and online courses to help monetize your creative process by sharing it with other artists who, in turn, will create more podcasts and blogs and online...

  4. 007: Transmedia, Worldbuilding and Weird German Words

    This edition of Daedalus Howell’s Night School of the Mind, is brought to you by Quantum Deadline, "...a noirish, sci-fi-lite detective story with a heap of self-parody that's by turns poignant, witty and comic..." says the North Bay Bohemian. And I agree because I wrote it and you can get it on...

  5. 006: That Time My Fear of Artistic Inauthenticity Met The Fear Doctor

    Before I walked the plank into indie authorship, I did time as a small town newspaperman. As my affiliations grew, so did the amount of press releases I received in my inbox. I still receive them, and one arrived today that served as an ironic reminder of an issue I’ve been facing — a pervading...

  6. 005: Did Shakespeare Smoke Pot?

    April 23rd marks William Shakespeare’s 423rd bday. For the sake of this chat, however, let’s just say it’s his 4-20th birthday. Because the question of the day is “Did Shakespeare smoke weed?” Doobie, or not doobie? That is the question – the one that circulated the Internet a couple years ago…

  7. 004: Quicksand. Don't Make it Weird.

    Long left behind in B-Movies, quicksand is making something of a cultural comeback. But maybe not in the way one might expect. From fetish films to a David Bowie word salad, your host Daedalus Howell plays through the sandtrap and finds old video games, snakes, and Nazis along the way. Links to...

    The third and final installment of the mini-series "Burning Down the Art House" focuses on Tom Schiller’s hat tip to Fellini, "La Dolce Gilda," starring Gilda Radner and evoking a nostalgia trip for your host, Daedalus Howell. Links to the videos and more at...

  9. 002: Burning Down the Art House, Part Two: Death Becomes Him

    Still in pursuit of the elusive art film, I find my way to Bergman through the portal of parody and pubescent thanatos. Behold, De Düva... Watch the films mentioned here: http://daedalushowell.com/blog/part-two-art-films. Theme music by Shannon Ferguson, additional music by Kevin MacLeod.

  10. 001: Burning Down the Art House, Part One: Poseurs, Parodists and Pill Head, an Art Film

    Whilst developing my feature-length art film, Pill Head, I ask why I'm drawn to the genre and whether it's really a genre at all. Also, I connect the dots between Monty Python and Jean-Luc Godard...
