Recently, I uploaded the intro episode of my podcast. This is an interview blog focusing on focus on the transition period of Chinese art graduates in London. The intro episode is about a brief introduction of myself and why I want to do this podcast.
Currently, the podcast is available on the Xiaoyuzhou app as well as the apple podcast platform. (Mainly updated on Xiaoyuzhou, a Chinese podcast platform similar to apple podcast for Chinese listeners, and apple podcast is hosted and automatically synchronised)
vol.0 Let’s stir up the echoes of the waves on this voyage together & vol.0’s introduction
For each episode album cover, I decided to use the paintings from my audiences during last intervention 21 emo voyage and introduce this information in the intro part of each episode. I will also attach their social media, in order to help them to be seen.
I think this linking will be a good form of creating links between my interventions as well as helping each other.
Following is the translation of the introduction of my first episode.
“Hey there, it’s 7u! Welcome to “Bathtub Submarine,” this is a podcast that dives deep into the transition period of Chinese art graduates in London, from art school to the real world. This is also related to my personal project at Central Saint Martins.
During my research, I uncovered this collective hunger for “experience” and the unspoken struggles we face—the silent battles, the maze of resources—all stuff I’ve personally wrestled with. Time to stop hiding and spill the beans! Let’s chat about the messy ways we’re making it through! Because, you know, sharing stories, being heard, it’s like a warm virtual hug.
In our upcoming episode, get ready for some real talk with Lik, a Goldsmiths grad and the brains behind LuckyPot, a community rallying behind Asian artists. We’re diving deep into Lik’s challenges and experiences on her personal London art adventure.
This podcasting thing is a first for me, and there’s a ton to figure out. Here’s hoping we can learn and grow together on this ride. Can’t wait for your feedback!
New episodes splash down twice a month on platforms Xiaoyuzhou and Apple Podcasts. For more contact, catch me on Little Red Book at “浴缸潜艇” (Bathtub Submarine).
