About this Event
Geoff Bird is one of the most prolific and acclaimed producers of literary radio, working today. He has made award-winning shows about writers like D.H. Lawrence, W. H. Auden, James Joyce, and a recent Radio 4 programme to mark the anniversary of The Great Gatsby with Oxford’s Anil Gomes and Nick Gaskell. He’s also made landmark radio about women in electronica music, The Woman-Machine, has written and presented his own shows about packing up the family home and taking his kids to university, and is currently making a podcast co-hosted by AI. After more than twenty-five years on the airwaves, he remains at the cutting edge of radio. In this talk, followed by a Q&A with the audience, he’ll be discussing his own route to making radio, his thoughts on how to get academic research on air, and how to kick-start a career in the fast-shifting terrain of digital, and AI influenced audio production.
Open to all.
