Patreon Rerelease: Corporate Art and Vaporwave

Hello! We’re starting a new project this month. We have almost 50 bonus episodes on our Patreon. The goal is to get these older bonus episodes out from behind the paywall. So travel back in time with us for poor recording setups, bad editing, out of date opinions, and so much more! Original Show Notes: Support Night Clerk Radio on Patreon Well friends, it seems like nothing gets us into a long conversation like the historical and sociopolitical landscape of corporate art, aesthetics, and marketing. We talk about everything from the post-WW2 rise of popular luxury to the current hellscape of flat purple vector people. Definitely check out the CARI link below and let us know your favorite styles. As always thank you so much for your support.
