NOTE: Since recording this episode, Liz has changed their name to Eddie, and their pronouns to they/them.

If you’re anything like me, you’ve sometimes wished you had a little more confidence. This might be around technology, but it could also be to do with your creativity in general and even feeling able to ask questions when you’re learning new skills. Inside this week’s episode I’m joined by the wonderful Dr. Liz Dobson, who has researched into how creative spaces can become more diverse and collaborative, especially with regards to music tech.
