About The Sum of All Wisdom
Conversations on Music, Makers, and Meaning
The Sum of All Wisdom is a podcast about how music gets made and what it makes possible.
Hosted by Scott Catey, musician, musicologist, scientist, and storyteller, the series features in-depth conversations with musicians, composers, producers, engineers, sound designers, and other creative minds working in and around music. Each episode explores not just what people make, but how they make it... How they listen, shape sound, and find meaning through their craft.
These are conversations grounded in musicality, curiosity, attention, and the creative process. We'll hear about the full spectrum of music-making: influences, instrumentation, collaborations, dreams, risks, decision-making, even failures and how these spur makers on to their next discovery, creation, success. Music has the power to move us in so many ways; let's hear about how it comes to us from the minds of rare and remarkable creatives.
Less hype, more signal. The Sum of All Wisdom is an invitation to listen closely and learn more about the sound, the people behind the sound, and the genius that emerges when experience, craft, and creativity meet.
