At Dark ‘n’ Light we’re deeply interested in stories and the people behind them, and our podcast The Subverse is a fortnightly journey into weird and wonderful conversations with creators and thinkers.  Our new six part mini-series Arcx is all about literary inspiration, tracing its roots from conception to execution. We aim to arrive at the root of that inspiration, and find the spark that ignited ideas. We seek to peel away layers of perception, memory, and impressions  to find the story, line, characters or even a word that inspired a writer to set forth on their journey. Join us over the course of the next six episodes as we uncover what writers loved, what they hated, and what prompted them to tell their own stories  as we dissect art, influences, the process of writing, and what shaped it all.  The Subverse is the podcast of Dark ‘n’ Light, a digital space that chronicles the times we live in and reimagining futures with a focus on science, nature, social justice and culture.
