Show Overview
In episode one I introduced you my friend and fellow Virginian Noah Scalin, whose book of Skulls caught my eye while I was perusing the back of a shop in Charleston South Carolina a few years ago. Every skull Noah creates is made from a different material, from turnips to tinfoil, and they are so amazing that Noah has become a bit of a skull celebrity. His art was recently featured in the Mammoth Book of Skulls, he speaks around the world on creative expression, teaches graphic design at the Virginia Commonwealth University, and even found time to hang out with Martha Stewart on her TV show. Noah has just released a new book of 365 skulls, which you can order online from Chop Suey books.

- Martha Stewart
- A Limited Rebellion: Noah’s socially conscious design firm
