Zara Waldebäck: Animistic Storytelling #42
Listen now
Description
From the busyness of UK screen writer’s rooms to the stillness of the Swedish forests. From mastering the story to serving the story. From performance to ceremony. From ego-centred to eco-centred. Zara Waldebäck’s life, wisdom and thoughts on storytelling, resonance, relationship and attention are some of the many wonderful ingredients of this conversation. It developed and grew like a mycelial network of association and wonder, sprouting fascinating mushrooms to ponder, while pairing and playfully opposing the invisible and visible worlds in a dance of words.
