Episode Details
Original tape date: February 11, 2026. First aired: April 10, 2026.The Gorgon Cycles is a mesmerizing fever dream, an electrifying and layered animation that reimagines the return of Medusa. Driven by an original score for alto flute and electronica, and populated by a surreal cast of creatures, the film pulses with bold imagination, blending chaos and beauty into a striking vision of life in a world on the brink.
Co-director and flutist Tessa Brinckman joins us in the studio as this visually and sonically immersive piece channels a Disney Fantasia-like fusion of music and motion. Drawing on her synesthetic approach, where sound is experienced as color, Tessa and co-directors Miles Inada and Devyn McConachiean craft an unforgettable visual language and a powerful call to protect the fragile beauty of our world.
