About this listen

This series is about digital culture - what it means, and who it’s for.


The Institute for Digital Culture at the University of Leicester fuses technology and culture to generate ideas in a number of subject areas - from digital humanities, digital heritage, media studies, to creative computing and data science.


Over four stand-alone episodes, this series will profile and interrogate the central themes underpinning the Institute in 2023, its inaugural year. Presented by Dr Sophie Frost, Research Fellow at the Institute and Lecturer in Creative Leadership at the University for the Creative Arts, and Chris Thorpe-Tracey, writer and creative producer, this podcast locates the Institute as a catalyst for new thinking, experiments, and interventions in digital culture.


Join Sophie and Chris as they learn about new and emerging perspectives that will have relevance to both academic and non-academic audiences.


This is a Low Rumbling production for the Institute for Digital Culture at University of Leicester, UK.

    Who are the different people involved in the new Institute for Digital Culture? What constitutes an Institute within a university in 2023? And what do we even mean by "digital culture"?


    In this first episode of The Output, we're going to ponder what it means to hold so many different perspectives of what digital culture is - and what it could be - within a research environment like this one.


    You'll hear contributions from university staff and associates including Steve Williams - Director of Library and Learning Services, Clarissa Wilson - PhD candidate, Andrew Fletcher - Director of Attenborough Arts Centre, Ross Parry - Professor of Museum Technology and Director of the Institute for Digital Culture, Andrew Hugill - Professor of Music and Creative Computing, Uzma Johal MBE - Co-Founder and CEO of Threshold Studios, and Dr Alberto Cossu - Lecturer in Media and Communication.


    The Output is written and presented by Dr Sophie Frost and Chris Thorpe-Tracey, who also edited it. Artwork is by Matt C Stokes. The Output is a Low Rumbling production for the Institute for Digital Culture at the University of Leicester.
