Post-Internet Dystopia w/ Jeff "Weirdo" Jacobson, Seattle Artist/Muralist (Part 1) Artwork

In A Turn Of Events

With so many uncertainties surrounding our every day lives, can you imagine a world without stories to share? Stories of success, failure; the valleys of pain and the peaks of elation? What if we didn't have access to extraordinary things others have accomplished, or the adversities they overcame along the way? I want to inspire people to embrace a broader spectrum of pain and joy, and live their lives to the fullest potential. Through amazing stories, unique interviews, and inspired insights, we will find ourselves, and tap into an entirely different plane of living, all while sharing every step of the way with you.

Post-Internet Dystopia w/ Jeff "Weirdo" Jacobson, Seattle Artist/Muralist (Part 1)

Jeff Weirdo Jacobson is a Seattle-based artist and muralist who has become one of the most recognized urban visionaries of our time. His work is known for being hyper-realistic.

Jeff has focused on a wide range of work, including a once-in-a-lifetime project collaboration with Russell Wilson that caught my attention in an ESPN article back in January. Jeff created a pair of custom graffiti-style cleats for Russ to represent his Why Not You Foundation, urging kids to chase their biggest goals and dreams. (Link to article below)

Jeff has developed a keen and intense focus on leaving behind a story of what life on Earth was like for future generations to ponder.

We got into a great discussion about how we as individuals, and humanity as a whole, have been effected by social media, and how he foresees, and attempts to capture in his work, a world in Post-Internet Dystopia.
