Field Notes: Trashfuture Studio Visit (23/10/24)

Visual Notes

These notes are adapted from the notes taken during the studio visit:

Before

Researched Tom and his podcasts, I prepared for a semi structured interview. I decided to focus on the following topics:

  • How podcasting can be used as an educational tool
  • How the shows approach confronting or heavy topics
  • How host and co-host dynamics inform audience experience
  • Identifying an audience
  • Host positionality

I sent the subject of the interview a consent form using Google Forms.

During

It was not possible to record the interview (it was attempted, but the file became corrupted…!). I took notes and drew as we spoke.

After

I feel I have a better understanding on the following:

  • Technical aspects of recording a podcast
  • The ways podcasting and teaching overlap
  • The benefits of removing my podcast from the university environment
  • The ways role-playing can be used to orchestrate learning in the audience
  • I feel more confident not having a key audience in mind
