Documenting Failure - Series Show Notes

Episode 1

Welcome to Documenting Failure!

A podcast about exploring experiments in doing things differently, thinking about access, marginalisation and what we can learn through failure from disabled artists in the UK and beyond. 

Have you seen legs? Can’t relate!....Hurry up! You’re the one, non-disableds, slowing us down. I’m Usain Bolt in this chair.

For our first episode we are talking with Matilda Feyisayo Ibini about disability, care packages, creating work in a disabled body that doesn’t serve capitalism and thinking creatively about disability and failure..
