Audio Essays: What's up with Taiwan?
INTRODUCTION
"What's up with Taiwan?" is the first of a series of audio essays that deal with issues surrounding artist-in-resident programs.
This podcast is the result of a two month research residency completed at Bamboo Curtain Studio in New Taipei City. The residency is part of the “Creative Talents” program and research was conducted from September to November in 2016.
Using BSC as a starting point for my research in effective residency management, I explored Taiwan interviewing residency managers, artists and creative activists in order to gauge the attributes and problems facing creative hubs based in Asia.
