Episode 1 visits Riverside County where the duo known as the Date Farmers are re-writing pop surrealism, Orange County where two Muslim-American women are creating a fashion line, San Bernardino County where there is an artist colony inhabiting Jackrabbit Homesteads, Palm Springs where mid-century modern architecture is getting a revival.

Each episode compiles shorts determined by readers of Artbound, an arts and culture website of the Los Angeles public media station KCET. Every week a new vote appears on the site, prompting readers to choose which article they would like to see made into a short video piece. The videos are released weekly on the web and then assembled into a TV broadcast episode airing bi-monthly. Featured artists have included The Date Farmers, Michael Parker, Manuel Paul Lopez, Steve Roden, Olga Koumoundouros, Tanya Aguiñiga, Alexandra Grant, Victor Wilde, Nery Gabriel Lemus, Mear One, Cut Chemist, Shizu Saldamando, Sandow Birk, Alyse Emdur, Richard Ross, and more.—Anonymous
