Converging Cultures (360G-Wellcome-204094_Z_16_Z)
Little Atoms wants to engage and educate creative audiences about the development of biomedicine and its influence on culture with a special season of podcasts and longform articles. Using science to unpick cultural developments, we want to engage the public and demonstrate how developments in biomedicine shaped culture, challenging norms, beliefs and choices. The podcast will chronologically cover the role of biomedicine and its influence on the arts from the 19th century to the current day. From Galvani and reanimation, to the ‘Jones hypothesis’, to the role of facial disfiguration and reconstruction in literature, to the impact of antidepressants and creativity in the 1950s and on to globalisation, pandemics and the future of medicine and art. Initially broadcast on the digital station NTS with aims of further syndication, the podcast will be accompanied by a series of 12 longform commissions on littleatoms.com.
