Another very interesting discussion features on Creative Conversations 7. This week you will find me talking to Carolyn Black, freelance producer for ExLab.
ExLab had seven quite major commissions shown across Dorset over the summer of 2012. It is also an interesting structure as it saw seven different organisations forming together. Along with hearing about ExLab and its structure, we hear Carolyn being quite honest and open about how things went and the lessons learnt.
I found this to be a really refreshing experience as so many publicly funded arts organisations (NPOs) and arts officers, who are working with public money, have NOT stepped up and agreed to talk ‘on the record’. So often they just seem to want to put in their secret arts council report, which we won’t get to see. So I’d like to offer Carolyn Black a big thanks for agreeing to do one of my recorded conversations and having her thoughts collected into my growing archive.
