On this episode of the Westside Fairytales Horror and Lit Club, host Tyler Bell sits down with Nic Boone, a horror creator and artist who's worked on numerous video games, including League of Legends. They're very well read on the social and economic issues facing artists these days, and we talk horror, their work, and the threats facing working artists in the modern market. We talk at length about AI, workers rights, and the grim future of art if the people who make it don't learn to band together and stick up for themselves.
If you're the politically weary sort, or get upset when you hear non-status-quo opinions about politics, economics, etc., this episode may not be for you. These are issues I'm very passionate about and that have deep and profound effects on folks like me being able to make art and hold onto the fruits of my labor. So, if you could give it a listen with an open mind, even if you disagree, I'd appreciate that!
Side note: Nic goes by they/them pronouns and I accidentally misgender them a few times in this episode. That's wrong on my part and all apologies to Nic.
