On the season two finale, producer, composer, and director, Teddy Walton, takes us behind the scenes of his unique audio-visual experience, Free Machine, which debuted in Ep4S2 of Your Attention Please. Conceived over months of ideation and creative meditation, yet filmed over only a few days, Free Machine is a collaborative vision that centers around themes of ownership, destiny and family. Teddy shares the personal meaning of these themes with Kimberly, and breaks down how they inform his work. He also sheds light on how this mindset has led to epic collaborations with artists such as Kendrick Lamar, Bryson Tiller, Kid Cudi, and Hulu, working with Brandon Drew Jordan Pierce, a.k.a. Beedy and his creative team to change the landscape of how visionaries reach their audiences.
