WTBS is back with our first interview of 2024, a special episode with artist Frank Manzano & collector/curator Artie Handz! The Artie Gallery is bringing "ScheduledProgramming" to Verse on January 11, 2024. In this episode we discuss:

Artie's background in art & collecting and how he came to start his Gallery with Verse
Frank's background in art & AI and how he got started selling his work as NFTs
How Artie first found Frank's work and why they are working together for this first Gallery release
The dystopic themes in Frank's work and finding hope in unsettling subjects
The excitement of discovery with AI, Frank's process, and what A.I. brings to the work that couldn't be found elsewhere
Legal issues arriving with A.I. and how Artie evaluates A.I. work as a collector
