ONE OH EIGHT

A pair of geolocated audio dramas set on the 108 bus routes in London and Cape Town.

The listener downloads the app which triggers the audio drama to play on their phone

as they sit on the bus heading along their city’s 108 route…

…transporting the London listener – in their mind’s ear – to Cape Town.

And the Cape Town listener to London.


The roundtable will be followed by a Q&A and drinks.

The event will take place on the Goldsmiths campus in LG02 of the Professor Stuart Hall building and online – click here to join event at 5pm.

snudge

The first sense of snudging refers to being cheap, stingy, miserly, and Scrooge-like. Such penny-pinching behavior isn’t associated with great posture, and perhaps that’s why the word later referred to walking with a bit of a stoop. An English-French dictionary from 1677 captures the essence of snudgery: “To Snudge along, or go like an old Snudge, or like one whose Head is full of business.” Snudging is a little like trudging. Credits to Mark Peters.
