#15 Kalli Anderson | Kaija Siirala

<p>The first piece I came across by <a href="http://kallipearl.com/audio">Kalli </a>and <a href="https://www.kaijasii.com/">Kaija</a> was <a href="https://soundcloud.com/user-458907383/the-night-swimmer-kalli-anderson-and-kaija-siirala">Night Swimmer</a>, which follows Marilyn Korzekwa, a 61-year-old swimmer, as she attempts to be the first person to cross Lake Superior, from Michigan, USA to Ontario, Canada. The way Kalli and Kaija think about place and tension within their work is mesmerising; they are constantly questioning how to elevate the experience of non-living beings and how to navigate our relationship with the world around us through storytelling. In this interview you’ll learn about narrative structure and how Kalli and Kaija make collaboration work for them. This piece also features an audio challenge from the wonderful maker <a href="https://thponders.com/">T.H. Ponders</a>. Enjoy!&nbsp;</p>

#14 Jessie Lawson

<p>I have been following Jess’s work ever since I heard <a href="https://jessielawson.org/2019/09/16/bbc-r4-short-cuts-producer-2/">Bats in the Attic </a>on BBC Shortcuts. Jess so artfully integrates two weaving strands of a story together to create a 7-minute piece which is moving, poetic and challenging. The way Jess deals with grief - with curiosity and even humour - is so powerful. We spoke to Jess about Bats in the Attic and her programme <a href="https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m000hghf">Unchained</a> which explores the impact of short term prison sentences on women's lives. You can listen to the episode <a href="https://anchor.fm/telling-stories">here.</a></p> <p>If you want to think more deeply about some of the ideas presented in this episode, Jess has offered these links as a place to start:&nbsp;</p> <p><a href="https://www.womeninprison.org.uk/campaigns/our-campaigns" target="_blank">https://www.womeninprison.org.uk/campaigns/our-campaigns</a></p> <p><a href="https://abolitionistfutures.com/" target="_blank">https://abolitionistfutures.com/</a></p> <p><a href="https://jessielawson.org/2019/09/01/we-are-incredible-producer/" target="_blank">https://jessielawson.org/2019/09/01/we-are-incredible-producer/</a></p> <p><a href="https://www.instagram.com/lady_unchained/" target="_blank">https://www.instagram.com/lady_unchained/</a></p> <p><a href="https://twitter.com/paula_harriott" target="_blank">https://twitter.com/paula_harriott</a></p> <p><a href="https://twitter.com/AmandaJHailes" target="_blank">https://twitter.com/AmandaJHailes</a></p> <h3><br></h3>

#13 Ariel Mejia

<p>Ariel is one of those makers...you’ll be listening to her work and suddenly a line in the writing will pull you out of your mind and into your body. I experienced this while listening to Ari's piece <a href="https://www.theheartradio.org/e4e/2020/11/18/chasing-purple">Chasing Purple.</a> In this episode we explore sound design, bending time and D.I.Y identities . You can listen to the episode <a href="https://anchor.fm/telling-stories">here.</a></p>
