04: Bianca Russelburg - Making the Music World a More Open Place for LGBT Voices

Bianca Russelburg, audio engineer and founder of Resonate, talks about their mobile recording project, Resonate, and why it’s important for the musicians and audience that more LGBT voices be heard in the music world. They also shares the story of how a track from their senior thesis project landed next to The White Stripes on the upcoming Tegan and Sara So Jealous X release.

 The Deep Dish:

  • How growing up gay in a small Indiana town and searching for a music and LGBT community influenced the Resonate project
  •        The experience of creating a Kickstarter for Resonate
  •        Challenges in turning current day hits into Motown classics for her Reflections on Motown project
  •        Reclaiming songs you associate with a bad experience and creating a new experience around them

How she landed next to The White Stripes on the Tegan and Sara So Jealous X project

We're living through a revolution in how content is created. AI tools can now help with every aspect of content creation - from ideation to research, copywriting, editing, creating graphics, and beyond. These tools can save you hours of work and help you produce more polished content than ever before, but there's a darkside to these magic tools.

The more we use them, the higher the risk we run of losing the very thing that makes our content ours - our unique perspective, our authentic voice, our human experience, and our heartbreak. AI can suck the heart and soul right out of our work.

I’m on a mission to find that sweet spot where technology enhances rather than replaces our humanity, where we can save time on the mechanical aspects of content creation so we can invest more energy in the parts that truly require our creativity, experience, expertise, and perspective.

We are navigating this new world together, along with our guests.

I’ll be interviewing business owners and content creators to learn how they are getting the most out of AI without sucking the soul out of their work. We'll learn about the pitfalls and perks of AI use in our business and creative endeavors.
