It’s Trans Day of Visibility - so here’s me being visible!

I’m Mischa. I use xe/xem pronouns (will also accept they/them). I’m an audio producer, engineer & designer. I’ve been working in podcasts since 2015, and live performance audio since even before that.

My biggest claim to fame is as showrunner for @arsparadoxica & audio producer for @thebrightsessions, which I know the Tumblr folks love! I’m currently serving as GM & sound wizard for actual-play podcast The Wandering Path, co-hosting Simple and Clean: A Kingdom Hearts Podcast with my good friend Mayanna Berrin, and editing & producing anywhere from 7-10 shows a week at Multitude - stuff like astronomy show Pale Blue Pod, the American Chemical Society’s Tiny Matters, “true” crime podcast Crime Adjacent, weekly drops for websites like Defector and Aftermath, and so many more.

If you like to listen to podcasts, and you want to support a trans/non-binary artist working in sound, check out my stuff!

maybe i like it when a female character is deeply flawed and responsible for countless deaths and so on and so forth. more female characters should be deeply flawed and responsible for countless deaths

[redstonedust]

love when a character is a scientist and their speciality is science and they do science in a science lab. no specifics no clear goals no clue where their funding comes from. dont even worry about it. science.

A high-level schematic map of the Superconducting Super Collider around Waxahachie, Texas during the final planning phases. The particle accelerator’s ring would’ve been 87.1 kilometers long, but only 22.5 km of tunnel had been bored when congress cancelled the project in 1993 due to cost overruns.

happy @acepodcastweek everyone give it up for the most annoying woman in the 1940s!

I tried to base her design somewhat on 40s/50s animation - especially the upa style. not entirely happy with it but i have plenty of time to workshop it if I ever do more ars paradoxica art!

yknow what?! also explode chet whickman! he is literally the physical embodiment of every somgle man from the 1940s. i need him to be exploded today!!

sally grimace can be spared i guess. i love asexual representstion. but you should totally wxplode the other guys.

Sally (& Archie) for day 3 of @podcastgirlsweek: WIP Wednesday! i originally did a sketch of this on my phone when I found the reference photo (under the cut) while cleaning up my gallery about 7 years ago and thought it'd be fun to redo it so I could finally post :) dedicating to @asaraphale for presumably being the reason i had pictures of Mads Mikkelsen Cat Photoshoot on my phone in the first place aksdh

[romanceyourdemons]

top five most important things you can give a character. 1. bisexuality. 2. autism. 3. so much negative rizz it loops around into irresistibility. 4. so many bad events. 5. a coping mechanism that’s cute and silly provided you don’t think about it too hard

[rathayibacter]

cannot recommend more putting secrets and hints in your creative work that you dont expect anyone to figure out

[rathayibacter]

act like youve got a ravenous fanbase of a million people poring over every detail, cuz then if nobody figures it out you feel cool n smug knowing something nobody else does, and if someone does figure it out then its like theyve joined a secret society

IT’S HERE!!

Check out the first episodes of The Wandering Path TODAY, wherever you get podcasts! That’s our worldbuilding 2-parter AND our first story episode, “Time To Wake Up, Little One!”

I’m so proud of this show. My players Bex Taylor-Klaus, Lyn Rafil, Ian McQuown & Mayanna Berrin are all crushing it both individually and together, and y’know for my first time as on-mic talent I think I’m doing a pretty good job too! It’s got resonant story themes, immersive sound design, and an EXCELLENT soundtrack. I think we’ve cooked up something really special here, and I’m so excited to finally be putting it out into the world.

Come wander with us!
