Sally Singer and Rodney Mullen

Rodney Mullen is considered the greatest freestyle skater in the history of the sport, and the person whose tricks have come to define modern skateboarding for nearly 40 years. He is also an inventor, entrepreneur, and public intellectual favored by TED and Silicon Valley visionaries. This week sees the premiere of Liminal, an extraordinary new work by Mullen, shot in photographer Steven Sebring’s pathbreaking 360-dome and scored by Dhani Harrison. It is Mullen’s first full footage release since 2004, and a momentous moment in the history of the sport. In this podcast he talks to Vogue’s Creative Digital Director Sally Singer about how this piece came about—his radical remaking of his body and his stance; the experience of working in the confines of a dome—and why he chose to debut it on Vogue.com.
