Pharrell Williams has been inspiring millions around the world with his music, but also has become a forefront in the fashion industry as an undoubted trend-setter. Now he has been inspired by his own fans. Realizing that many of his followers are creators of music, art and design themselves, the multi-platinum selling producer has helped create an online community on Artst.com. Formally HeyWire, the Artst Guild & Gallery is now a compilation of works for bright minds to network and be amongst like-minded artists. Pharrell explains how the Old Testament influenced the concept of the site, and describes the visual layout and design of the site. He hopes that this center of innovation and artistry will give its members the opportunity to be commissioned for jobs in their respective fields, jump-starting a promising career. One hands definitely washes the other. Video interview, courtesy of Current TV.
