DANC Neurodivergent Focus Group Podcast: Episode 1

The TripleC/DANC Neurodivergent Focus Group podcast is part of a series of projects from each of the different intersectionalities of the disabled community. For this project, co-hosts Robbie Curran & Pete Marshall discuss their experiences creating and consuming art concerned with their neurodivergence of autism, chatting about projects, improvements in representation, historical stereotypes, as well as the progress happening for autistic creatives navigating the industry today, which will hopefully be exciting for any neurodivergent and disabled artists listening.
