Crafts and Art - What Makes Something Valuable?

Azmyl Yunor and Ong Kar Jin join Kam Raslan on this episode of A Bit of Culture to talk about espionage, crafts and art, and lo-fi! Kam gets the ball rolling by talking about our fascination with espionage and why some people find the genre appealing. Then it's Kar Jin's turn to unpack the difference between crafts and art and what makes one more appreciated or valued than the other. In the second part of the show, Azmyl talks about the changing nature of lo-fi and its appeal to both its practitioners and consumers. A classic A Bit of Culture episode with a bit of everything!
