In this episode of Toasts & Jams, we welcome Harry "Reeps One" Yeff, artist, voice pioneer and creative technologist whose work sits at the intersection of human expression, artificial intelligence and performance.

From his beginnings as a world-renowned beatboxer to collaborating with leading researchers and institutions including Harvard, Harry has dedicated his career to exploring the limitless potential of the human voice and what it can teach us about creativity, technology and ourselves.

We talk about neurodivergence, finding belonging through art, the future of AI, voice technology, creativity and why human expression will always remain at the centre of innovation. Harry also reflects on stepping away from touring, preserving voices for future generations and how technology can help us become more creative, rather than replace us.

It's a fascinating conversation about curiosity, identity, creativity and the future of what it means to be human.

In this episode of Toasts & Jams, we welcome Matt Dosa, a North London based visual artist whose work spans murals, abstract painting, prints and public art.

Emerging from a graffiti background, Matt has developed a distinctive visual language that blends bold colour, instinctive mark making and large scale composition. His work sits between street culture and contemporary abstraction, often exploring ideas of place, community and creativity.

We talk about Matt's journey from painting in public spaces to creating murals and large scale artworks, the role London has played in shaping his perspective, and why following your passion often matters more than following a plan.

The conversation moves through creativity, community, resilience and the importance of sharing your work. Matt reflects on working with people who don't see themselves as artists, the power of public art to bring people together, and a life changing accident that shifted his outlook on life.

It's a wide ranging conversation about creativity, instinct, community and finding your own path.
