In today’s episode, I'm joined by Frank Bach, a designer at Instagram and a member of the band Monk. We delve into the intriguing crossroads of art and commerce, the significance of parental support in cultivating self-confidence, and the pivotal role of intuition in decision-making.

Our conversation begins with Frank's role at Instagram, where he's dedicated to enhancing the experience for creators on the platform. We then explore his insights on branding, its transition from corporate identities to personal ventures, and the importance of consistent application over time.

Frank also shares his background in hardcore punk music and its influence on his approach to design and branding, teaching him to challenge norms and embrace authenticity.

We discuss our takes on cultural trends. Frank dives into his unique design aesthetic, shaped by his musical influences and the merging of cultures and influences in the current creative landscape.

Join me for this thought-provoking, sociology-esque discussion with Frank Bach!
