CCA Podcast

Welcome to the second episode of our new podcast series. Gareth K Vile (Theatre Editor of The List Magazine. He also blogs wild critical theory) chats to some of the amazing people who make, produce and contribute to our programme: from artists, curators and programmers, to community organisers and social clubs. We'll take a deep dive into exhibitions, gigs, performances and events - exploring the ideas and ethos that underpin our approach to Open Source Programming and how you can get involved. In this episode, Sabrina Henry (Assistant Curator, CCA) discusses projects for Refugee Festival Scotland and how plants can act as witnesses to the history of colonialism; Sha Nazir takes us behind the scenes of Bold Heart Publishing, and getting comic artists out into the community; artist Emilia Beatriz talks about their current exhibition 'declarations on soil and honey' and the historic land struggle that connects Scotland and Puerto Rico; Louise Oliver introduces Persistent and Nasty and being in a room of crackling rage, while Viviana Checchia (Public Engagement Curator, CCA) and Johnny Rodger share their thinking on bringing art and society together through projects like The Cooking Pot and Political Animal.
