Omish Njash explains this sentiment during the podcast: there is difference between art and content. There is a realisation that there is a need for the creation of a new currency that is neither art, nor wisdom, or even sensible, to even be content. They jump on the moment to create content, which has a shorter life span and less meaningful value.

“An artist is faced with their own honesty or dishonesty, at a moment that has become political.”

“We take democracy seriously.” I am not sure many politicians want to hear this, even some of those who welcome criticism. Democrats (I am referring to any democracy advocating politicians, anywhere) want to believe in democracy if it brings them to power. They will believe in it again when the election cycle comes around again. What they do in between is anyone’s guess.

Tell us it isn’t true, tell us we still have a country…powerfully meaningful words. These are the sentiments that describe how I feel often when thinking about politics in the UK and EU. Tell us we still have a country. Tell us the country we live in which claims to uphold democratic values, really means it. That this is not just a slogan for domestic use. That these are views that travel with meaning…

There are so many powerful sentiments in this short episode I could include the entire transcript. Instead, I urge you to listen.

During this episode I play a short excerpt from a demo version of the song Ochongorio by Omish Njash and produced by Lescoin.

Thank you, Omish, for your time.
