The Storythings podcast is an irregular series of interviews, talks and discussions with some of the most influential creative talent working in TV, Film, Games, Theatre, Art and beyond.
Episode 1 – Adam Curtis talking at The Story 2011
In this talk, Curtis discusses the difficulties of storytelling on the internet, issues a challenge to avoid the whimsy of the ‘circle of friends’ that seems to dominate contemporary media culture, and urges us to look beyond the surface of online culture to see the power structures that underpin it. Its a fascinating and challenging talk, exploring many of the themes that he develops in his new BBC 2 series All Watched Over By Machines Of Loving Grace.
