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.
