A long and confusing ramble about skepticism and drugs. Probably not even good for sleep.Bởi Elias Hansen

I took some time off for summer to rollerblade and ride bikes, but now I'm back to rambling in my car. I cover the basics of framing up a 2x4 wood wall, but first I have to talk about clams and go off on art institutions. I'm not sure about this episode, but it's better than nothing. Probably good for a nap, but I do get a little too excited about …

A long winded ode to wood and it's magical properties. Plus more confusing drifts into institutionalism and it's hang ups. Best listened to while asleep or cutting wood loudly so you can't really hear what I'm saying. 1/10 for comprehension, 2/10 for clarity, 0/10 for objective reasoning.Bởi Elias Hansen

A basic primer of how to create a stained glass object. The only problem is I ramble on about being a personal trainer, the benefits of taking psychedelics and rollerskating and aggressive snacking. Great for naps, not much else. If you're into stained glass, this will probably just frustrate you. If you're a weirdo crafter, you might get a kick ou…

In honor of my seven years not drinking alcoholic beverages, I decided to tell you all about how I make seltzer and cold brew. I probably say too much about myself, as usual, so if you're just here for the craft you can skip this one. If you're concerned about psychedelics or you don't think I should be your personal trainer, you should also probab…

An attempt at describing the very technical process of rolling up cane and murrine on a collar into a bubble, a very specific hot glass process. It takes me so long, I have to work three different jobs in between lectures, so I also have to describe my jobs and all the snacks I got involved with during that time. All my episodes are confusing and d…

I am a stage 4 cancer survivor. I was diagnosed with Hodgkin's Lymphoma in 2010 and went through six months of chemotherapy. I was married to a woman with cancer for five years and went through numerous hospital visits and treatments with them. My father was diagnosed with a non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma in 2017 and lost that battle in 2019. I don't love …

A brief overview of drill bits, chucks, mill ends and poking holes in things. Jobbers, spades, forstners, diamond bits, all your favorite ways to drill holes, plus some weird and confusing anecdotal evidence that's probably at least partially incorrect.Bởi Elias Hansen

A long winded description of all the different kind of adhesives that I could remember. There are more than this, but I think an hour is more than enough time to ramble about glue. In case that wasn't boring enough, I try to explain my very confusing take on art institutions, The Arts and the role of the artist as adversary to it all.…

I tried to make a straightforward description of basic electrical and wiring elements, but I got sidetracked by all the confusing parts of electricity and stories about my grandma. Plus more ranting about the impossibility of art institutions in actually supporting artists. Grab a pillow, this one's a snoozer!…

I try to explain my wide angle view on art institutions and The Arts, then I focus in on the minutiae of welding. Listen to this while you weld for extra confusion.Bởi Elias Hansen

I explain U-brakes, V-brakes and cantilever brakes in greater detail than you've ever needed to know. I do mention hydraulic brakes, but that is going to take another episode to explain. This is all about housing and the cable pull system of the standard bicycle.Bởi Elias Hansen

I start to get into the specifics of cane and murrine work here, but I really only describe how to set up a pull. I thought I could get to how to roll things up, but it takes a long time to describe in detail the basics of cane and murrine setups.Bởi Elias Hansen

Turning a simple shape on a wood lathe.Bởi Elias Hansen

Have you thought a lot about concrete? I have. So much so that I thought it would be fun to talk for an hour about the technicalities of concrete, portland cement and aggregate. How silly! Now that I've recorded this, I feel like I could talk for another hour about all the things I missed. Advanced Concrete coming soon!…

A very specific sculptural technique of wrapping hot glass in a hot shop setting. If you've ever wondered about the very specific details of wrapping 5 pounds of glass around a hot glass sculpture, this is the episode you've been waiting for. If you've never wondered that, now's your chance!Bởi Elias Hansen

Have you ever wondered how to take care of donkey or goat toenails? No? Have you ever wanted to take a nap? Yes? If you get comfortable, you can probably fall asleep before I go into too much detail about carefully trimming and cleaning stinky goat toenails, then you won't have to listen to any of it!…

I dig deep into my memory banks and describe the techniques I learned as a teenager to give myself and my friends tattoos. These are the tips and tricks you shouldn't copy, techniques that are not sanctioned, safe or sane. If you like good tattoos, you are going to be very upset when you hear this episode. Not recommended for sleep, unless you're a…

Now that I've covered the basics of coldworking, I thought it would be fun to go deep into more specific cutting techniques like battuto and inciso. Very long winded and detail oriented, but potentially accessible to all levels if you listen carefully. Also good for naps.Bởi Elias Hansen

This is a performance piece I recorded about being an outlaw and making pancakes. Very confusing and disjointed, but potentially the best sleep aid yet. I tried for my most sleepy time voice, so enjoy your nap!Bởi Elias Hansen

We are diving into the specifics of the foundation of hot glass work: gathering and punties. This is highly technical, but I try to explain it so anyone can understand. It's probably way too detailed, so you might want to lay down and take a nap while I talk.Bởi Elias Hansen

This is an attempt to speak about the craft of dealing with death. As an artist, I've created a number of rituals around dealing with death and dying. I was diagnosed with stage 4 cancer in 2010, and I've lost a number of close friends and family to suicide, drug overdose and cancer, so this is a very personal story. Very emotional, a great way to …

This one is actually about coldworking. I got it switched up with the last episode, so things got a little out of order, but that's what you get for listening to a free podcast from some dude in his car. Very technical, but not as confusing as Chocolate Cake and Depression. The intimate and technical details of cutting and polishing glass. Way more…

Originally I posted this as "Coldworking Glass" but I got it mixed up when I uploaded it with "Chocolate and Depression". Very fitting though. You'll probably be depressed after coldworking glass and you might want some chocolate. I think I explain my chocolate cake recipe, but it's pretty confusing.…

A detailed, monotonous and confusing description of cast iron and it's uses in the kitchen and glass shop.Bởi Elias Hansen

Since y'all did such a good job sitting through all my boring technical talk, I thought it would be nice to confuse you with explaining how confusing and convoluted art fairs and galleries are. I think by the end of this, I was more confused about everything that is art and it's enormous market, but at least I'm not as confused as you'll be when yo…

Because "Sheetrock and drugs" was such a big hit, I thought I better follow up with some more super technical and confusing and not necessarily totally correct pipe fitting information. I just got done with a big gas pipe job and I've got this stuff fresh in my mind, so it's very smooth and good to sleep to. Minimal "ums" and yawns, but still way t…

How to hang sheetrock and properly mud the seams. Because sheetrocking is so boring, I thought I'd also throw in some talk about drugs to keep it interesting. I bet you'll fall asleep anyway.Bởi Elias Hansen

A detailed description of the standard tools found in a glass shop. Lots of long winded descriptions of obscure, confusing tools!Bởi Elias Hansen

Two comfort foods, apple pie and mdma! Careful, this one gets weird! Not suitable for children or other living things. Make sure you're asleep before you take this one!Bởi Elias Hansen

We return to the book we sewed earlier. Now it's time to make a cover or "case" and case our book in! I'm so excited! Except I'm also super sleepy, so this episode is probably best if your ready to go to sleep or already asleep.Bởi Elias Hansen

The craft of cooking meat and the fears associated with raw meat and how that relates to the way we approach other crafts and life in general. Very confusing, guaranteed to discombobulate you right to sleep.Bởi Elias Hansen

A detailed description of the glass color application process known as the "overlay". Very detailed and informative, great if you want to know more about glass or if you just want someone in the background talking about technical things while you go to sleep.Bởi Elias Hansen
