Paperweight Radio: Paper (S1, EP3)

This live radio discussion broadcast on Resonance 104.4fm brought together artists, designers, architects, curators, historians, theorists, writers and scientists to discuss topics within the fields of visual and material culture.

I was producer and host of the series and of the individual broadcasts, work which included conceiving of the concept for the series, developing the themes, identifying and booking guests, conducting pre-show interviews and research, drafting scripts and training guests for radio presentation of their work. I was also host of the live shows, introducing themes and topics and interviewing the guests.

In this episode on Paper, featured guests included art historian Beth Williamson on the digitisation of artists’ books; Head of Museums and Collections at the Museum of Domestic Design & Architecture Zoë Hendon on the Sonic Wallpaper project; Elizabeth Montagu biographer and eighteenth century literature scholar Elizabeth Eger on the paper culture of the Bluestocking circle; and literature scholar and historian Helen Smith on the paper culture of early modern England.
