Jessica and I Talk about Our Lives and Work on Swedish TV

June 15, 2016 by matt Leave a Comment

2016 Stockholm video MJ

Here’s a nicely-produced video of me and Jessica being interviewed by Fredrik Strömberg during the Stockholm International Comics Festival on May 7, 2016.

It’s a fast-moving and wide-ranging conversation in which we cover our own careers, our life together as a creative couple, comics education, and the status of women in the comics industry. During the second half I talk about my discovery of Raymond Queneau, Oulipo, and Oubapo, and I describe the creative process behind Drawn Onward.

You can’t hear it on the soundtrack but about 20 minutes in our children, who were sitting in the third row, started having a giggling fit which lasted off and on for the rest of the talk.

The video is viewable until December 8, 2016 so watch it soon!
