Glyph

Barnaby Steel, co-founder of Marshmallow Laser Feast, traces the path: early sparks, formative collaborators, and why science isn’t garnish but the spine of his work. We dig into the realities of making for others, institutions, brands, audiences, and what it takes to protect ideas without losing generosity. Barnaby shares how he balances research with rehearsal, when to say yes (and no), and the unglamorous craft behind keeping a studio curious, solvent, and kind. This is a conversation about process over myth: how to build a practice that listens, negotiates, and still lands a feeling that stays with people long after they leave the room.

What is Glyph?

Glyph — real stories from names you might not know, but whose work you’ve likely seen, heard, or read without even realizing it. We're talking about the hidden talents shaping the worlds of entertainment, digital art, and tech.
In each episode, we dig into how they got here—the twists, the detours, and what’s driving their careers today. Because sometimes, seeing the unexpected paths others have taken helps you realize: the best path is the one you walk."
