THE SYNTAX ERA PODCAST

On this week we talk about Art, Ideas, Ideologies, Culture, Memes, Genes & How they are all related. It’s interesting how an idea takes its own path & life after an artist is done with its creation. Listen in as Van & Bolo explain the correlation.

The community is an integral part of human existence. We have been living in communities since time immemorial. On this week’s episode, we take a deeper look into what a community is comprised of. First, the type of arrangements that define different communities and later the importances of belonging to a community. Enjoy 😊

On this week’s episode, Van The Deejay & Jaric Kenya talk about Art Galleries In Kenya. Jaric, a creative photographer, is actively involved in showcasing his art in Galleries locally & also internationally. He gives us an insight on his experiences & ways in which Local Artists can smoothly participate in such shows & make some money selling the pieces of art they have created. Enjoy 😉

On This Week’s Episode, Van The Deejay Linked Up With High Renaissance aka HR The Messenger.   They had an energy filled conversation where many topics were discussed.  HR tells us of his musical journey and how he’s been navigating the industry. Also mentions his upcoming album.  He also touches on undergoing surgery and how that shifted his perspective of what’s really important.  Being a producer, we talked about his favourite artists to have sessions with and why, Working with acts like Butross, Wakadinali and More.  His parting shot and message to all the artists is to bring back the attention back to the music.

From the last episode we hosted with Bolo, we've got responses of how much we lookalike. Had you seen it before this? What happens when your plug doesn't use what they sell you? Betrayal? Finally, are there better ways to classify sexuality other than what we're currently used to?? Enjoy :)

This week, Van and Jaric link up for another episode.  While catching up on the things that have happened recently, the topic of people telling on others came up. It's an interesting topic because looking keenly back on our history, those who openly collaborated with the oppressors and told on their mates enjoyed the spoils. Most of the fallen legends from our pasts were told on by their mates. How far back do you think it goes?? Is it a good thing or a bad thing? We think it totally depends on your perspective.

We define words then words define us. Shouldn't we be more careful with how we use the words that we gave definitions to? GOAT is such a good example of a word that has been (and continues) to be misused. Language needs more respect since it gives us our identity in a way we can understand.

“Opinion is really the lowest form of human knowledge. It requires no  accountability, no understanding. The highest form of knowledge… is  empathy, for it requires us to suspend our egos and live in another’s  world. It requires profound purpose larger than the self kind of  understanding.” ― Bill Bullard
