I would like to say that I had a dream about this podcast. It goes like this, there were white pages stacked, and on the first page was written EP 298. I had this dream one night after I came back from Piazzale Michelangelo, Florence. I live outside Florence. I'm an artist born in Brazil and I lived in Los Angeles where I attended art school. This dream came up after I went to see the Venice Biennial last year and I was asking myself what beauty is. My work has nothing to do with the renaissance however it has everything to do with Plato. Thank y so much for the podcast. Love, love, love this podcast ❤
