Rough Version: Volume 2 presents candid, relaxed conversations on visual art and music, drawn from Francesca Gavin’s long-running NTS Radio show (since 2016). The monthly program explores the musical influences and audio practices of leading contemporary artists. This volume gathers transcriptions that reflect on art, process, and meaning, offering insight into each artist’s identity and sonic inspirations. Gavin - Editor-in-Chief of EPOCH - brings two decades of experience as a writer, editor, and curator. Featuring a wide range of international artists, the book captures diverse voices and perspectives, creating an intimate portrait of contemporary creative practice.
