FLUX is an OFFSHOOT TV and Belfast School of Art podcast showcasing conversations with interesting folk enjoying a career in the creative industries following time at Ulster University.
In each episode, we’ll dive into the ideas behind a subject’s work, exploring what's driving innovation and inspiration in Belfast and beyond. The series marks a special moment in the history of our School - the 175 anniversary - and provides a special opportunity for us to reflect on the breath and diversity of the disciplines and specialisations the school teaches.
This firsts series of five episodes is hosted by Lyndsey McDougall, a lecturer in Art & Design History and Theory at Belfast School of Art.
For this edition Lyndsey chats with Karen Nickell - a textile historian and educator from Northern Ireland whose research explores the intersections of embroidery, education and community. Her seminal thesis, Embroidery in the Expanded Field (2014), has made a significant contribution to the field and has inspired new research into Irish embroidery.
Presented by Lyndsey McDougall.
Produced by Amy McGoldrick.
Music by Cahir O'Doherty.

Boysober
Have you ever wondered what life might be like if you stopped worrying about being wanted, and focused on understanding what you actually want? That was the question Hope Woodard asked herself after a string of situationships inspired her to take a break from sex and dating. She went "boysober," a personal concept that sparked a global movement among women looking to prioritize themselves over men. Now, Hope is looking to expand the ways we explore our relationship to relationships. Taking a bold, unfiltered look into modern love, romance, and self-discovery, Boysober will dive into messy stories about dating, sex, love, friendship, and breaking generational patterns—all with humor, vulnerability, and a fresh perspective.
