In this inspiring episode of Jazz Lab, I sit down with pianist, producer, and sonic visionary Telmakus to explore a creative journey shaped by both genius and adversity.After losing the ability to use his hands due to a rare genetic disorder (EDS), Telmakus did something few artists would even attempt — he began composing with his toes.
