Then What: How the Pandemic is Changing Digital Art and Design

To distract ourselves from the challenges of today’s global health crisis, many of us can’t help but think toward the future. What’s next? What can we expect in the months and years ahead, not just in our own lives, but on a global scale?

Grant Bart, the host and founder of Then What, aims to do just that. In this episode of the podcast, he meets with Rodman Primack, the founder and owner of RP Miller Design, to source his views on art and the world.

Primack and his husband Rudy recently launched Ago Photo, an opportunity for photographers to bring a new point of view to their fans and collectors. Because their team and clients are located in different parts of the world, Primack realized the value of adding digital art techniques to his skillset.

He noted that, before, it would take multiple efforts to communicate his vision to his team to get things right. “Now, I can do it myself, and it’s amazing to realize that efficiency and to think about how I can apply it back to a more normal pace.”

Just as the pandemic has forced him to change at a personal level, Primack understood that huge, creative transformations were happening all around the world, as well.

“Great things come out of hitting walls – come out of distress,” he observed. “Some of the most exciting developments in architecture and design in the 20th century were responses to World War I and World War II, so how do we take this moment and recognize that this is a tipping point, globally?”

Join us for the next episode of Then What, where we’ll meet with an upstate New Yorker for their stories of leadership and optimism.

June 8, 2026

When a commercial space fails, it often fails quietly: a lobby floor that becomes slippery when wet, a hotel bathroom that is difficult to clean, a healthcare surface that cannot withstand constant disinfection, or an office finish that looks great until afternoon glare makes the room uncomfortable. These are not purely aesthetic problems; they are…

June 8, 2026

Creative careers rarely move in a straight line, especially for writers working across stage, screen, audio, books, and independent film. Sustaining that kind of life often means finding opportunities wherever they appear, building a strong network, staying open to different formats, and saying yes to collaborations that can lead somewhere unexpected. The stakes are…

EMR Strategy, Consulting, and Career Pivots with MedSys Co-Founder Mark Embry
June 8, 2026

Electronic medical records (EMRs) have moved from a back-office upgrade to a frontline determinant of care quality, clinician burnout, and hospital economics. With U.S. hospitals often spending tens to hundreds of millions—sometimes exceeding $100 million—on EMR implementations, the stakes have never been higher for getting both the technology and the human adoption right. As…

Growing Without Compromise: How Vision Radiology Balances Scale, AI, and Clinical Quality
June 4, 2026

Radiology sits at the center of a modern healthcare squeeze: imaging volumes are climbing, hospitals need faster reads, and there simply are not enough radiologists to meet demand the old way.
