Transmissions :: Pam Grossman

Welcome back to Transmissions, a weekly podcast series from Aquarium Drunkard. This week on the show: Pam Grossman, host of ⁠The Witch Wave⁠ podcast and author of a new book, ⁠Magic Maker: The Enchanted Path to Creativity⁠. This show, at its core, is about the relationship between magic and art. What do we mean by magic? Let’s turn to Grossman’s book for a helpful take. She writes that magic is quote, “a way of shifting one’s entire mode of being in the direction of Creative Force and interacting with it…When magic is working properly, there is a feeling in the body of being activated. Power is raised. Ideas flow. Something outside of our egos is allowed entrance, and we respond to its visitation in kind.”
