What happens to art when the gallery moves online – and when artists can no longer afford to live near it? Dr Brendan McCauley joins us to explore how digital platforms, economic pressures, and the pandemic have reshaped creative practice. From regional artists in Western Mass to global changes in film editing software, Brendan’s work examines how production communities adapt—and what gets lost in translation. This episode unpacks how space, labor, and technology intersect in the art world today.
