Eleanor Morton on Making Art When the World Feels Anti-Art
Streams straight from the publisher. podnod never proxies or re-hosts episode audio.
Ahead of her return to the Edinburgh Festival Fringe, comedian, author and self-described “Scotland’s most anxious woman” Eleanor Morton joins the first episode of Spiralling to tackle a big question: how do we keep making art when the world seems increasingly anti-art? We discuss childhood anxiety, AI (a lot!), comedy funding, universal basic income, the Scottish comedy scene and the Fringe. Plus, a mystery caller joins us live on air to share an unusual gripe about his colleague.
