Hello, Hello, Bienvenue and so forth. Welcome to the very first episode of Scribble Chai: the podcast where we talk about all things intuitive art, from asemic writing to automatic drawing, and where I give the occasional interview to artists who have turned these techniques and belief-systems into a full-blown career. My name is Lina, and I hope today’s topic will inspire you to do some scribbling of your own.
This episode is going to be all about the history of intuitive art, which, when I first decided on the topic, I wasn’t aware of how many branches there are to this art form. I began to wonder if I’d bitten off more than I could chew! But I’ve managed to put together a nice little summary of events, complete with mentions of a few artists, poets, and even famous psychoanalysts that will give you an idea of how much this movement changed not only the artistic world, but also the world of psychology.
Thanks to Lars Meyer and the Bladverk Band from Epidemic Sound for the music in this episode.
