Manage episode 343096558 series 2995764
For the last episode of this season, it's time to think about collections -- story collections! Even more specifically, multi-author anthologies of new (or new-to-the-readership) work! So let's take a trip to China, to Africa, and to Pasedena, CA for some thoughts on collection and curation.
ITINERARY:
- Regina Kanyu Wang (The Way Spring Arrives and Other Stories) talks about the collaborative process of editing The Way Spring Arrives, considering non-dualistic ways of being, and the hope that springs from speculative fiction.
- Sheree Renée Thomas and Oghenechovwe Donald Ekpeki (Africa Risen) talk about their mutual appreciation, why it was time for a collection like Africa Risen, and just what it means when they say that Africa isn't just rising but that it has risen.
- Melinda McCurdy (Curator, British Art at the Huntington Library) explains how she views her role as curator and the unique opportunities presented by the change-up of a famous Huntington acquisition, and how curation can change an audience's context and understanding.
