Dan and Paul reflect on the "chaos" of a creative life and the inevitable ebb and flow of productivity when balanced against family, university, and professional work. The conversation shifts from the guilt of a hiatus to the importance of embracing "asymmetry" in one's practice, eventually diving into the specific visual signatures of their local environments. Dan discusses his recent exhibition at the Copeland Gallery, specifically defending a photograph of a nondescript portacabin as a vital representation of the Medway landscape. They also explore the concept of "carnalgia," the pitfalls of nostalgic cliches in photography, and the artistic value of documenting the "monstrosities" of the present day—like the Fiat Multipla—for the benefit of the future.
