Future Artefacts FM / 29.08.21

Future Artefacts FM is a monthly talk show hosted by Nina Davies and Niamh Schmidtke, featuring speculative fiction audio works intended for broadcast; comprised of radio plays, short stories, fictional interviews and podcasts.

This month’s episode features Nina Davies’ piece ‘Beyond the Virus: Past, Present and Future of Zombie Communities with Jamie Lewis’, a fictional podcast which imagines a future in which pockets of communities might communicate through non-verbal languages. This post-pandemic world questions how our interactions with one another will change through mediated online content sharing, such as on TikTok.
