In Episode 340 of Storycomic Presents, Barney Smith is honored to welcome Tom Lopez, the creative mind and driving force behind the ZBS Foundation. An award-winning writer and producer, Lopez has been at the forefront of audio storytelling since 1970, weaving tales that blend cosmic adventures with comic undertones while aiming to elevate consciousness through radio and audio. Dive into the conversation as we explore the mystical landscapes of ZBS's creations, from the adventures of a galactic gumshoe named Ruby to the enthralling soundscapes inspired by Lopez's global sound recording expeditions.
Discover how Lopez's passion for capturing the essence of diverse environments, from the bustling streets of Tangier to the serene jungles of the Amazon, has shaped the unique narrative style of ZBS productions. "MechaTon," "The Fourth Tower of Inverness," and "Dinotopia" are just a few examples where real-world sounds blend seamlessly with imaginative storytelling, creating an immersive listening experience unlike any other.
Tom Lopez shares his journey from cutting reel-to-reel tape with razor blades to harnessing the digital age's possibilities, remaining pivotal in audio drama's evolution. ZBS Foundation's commitment to entertaining and imparting wisdom and joy through mindful entertainment is a beacon for creators and listeners alike.
