Methodology

We asked each of our Season 2 participants to take part in a series of three workshops, facilitated by the production team, that supported the podcast production process. During these workshops, we discussed and developed ideas and produced audio that could be integrated into contributors’ projects. The aim of the workshops was to foster a collaborative environment among urban humanities students and alumni where we can collectively expand our approaches and nurture both alterity and common themes throughout. The workshops also served as production deadlines for components of contributors’ final episodes.
