John Gearty

In this episode of Driftwood Conversations, I sit down with John Gearty, an immersive media pioneer and founder of Pulse Jet Studios, to explore the frontier where music, technology, and storytelling intersect. John shares his journey from working on Apple’s Vision Pro to collaborating with artists like Björk and Lil Chris on groundbreaking virtual reality music experiences. We discuss what it means to create spaces that extend beyond the stage, how VR can transform the way we connect with art and the spiritual threads that run through even the most futuristic work. This is a conversation about sound, presence, and the radical possibilities of human creativity.
