Artist Chuck Anderson, also known as NoPattern, in collaboration with Zora presents "Pattern Recognition," a 1-on-1 interview podcast featuring conversations with some of the most creative minds in the world. With almost two decades of experience as a working artist, Chuck offers unique insight into the challenges and opportunities for creators who make and distribute their work online.
The podcast began as "NFT Pirate Radio," a Discord-based interview series hosted by DAO Friends with Benefits. With over 50 shows aired, NFT Pirate Radio featured some of the most influential artists, builders, and thought leaders in web3. The team behind Pirate Radio has come up with a better, more accessible format and a new name; instead of a time-sensitive, gated live Discord interview, they are now pre-recorded, high-fidelity audio interviews that available for all to hear and are also minted on-chain via the ZORA Network.
Topics include starting and running a creative practice, navigating art sales, working with brands and clients, the trials, failures, wins, and stories of professional creative careers, and getting to know the personal stories that led the guests to where they are now, all with a super laid back, unstructured vibe.

Jesse Draxler is a mixed media and multidisciplinary artist who creates beautifully menacing, brutal, and romantic artwork, mostly in black-and-white, that has translated brilliantly over the years from physical to digital and back again. We discuss his journey from blue-collar midwestern Wisconsin to Los Angeles, learning HTML and Dreamweaver in the late 90's, navigating "The Algorithm" as a visual artist on social media, accepting crypto as payment for his work before NFTs existed, building a generative NFT project on the foundations of his physical collage work, and we talk about how Gen Z'ers are officially on the corporate inside and we're starting to see the effects.
