Listen "Richard Dawson's Object-Oriented Songcraft"
Episode Synopsis
In this episode, Richard talks about some songs and objects in the work of the British singer-songwriter Richard Dawson. He discusses tensions that build when what we want to focus on is people and lives and memories and communities and connections, but all that seems to remain are traces and trails of objects. He argues that Richard Dawson’s songs are both a brilliant response to such tensions and an example of how songs bring both objects and people to life.
