Today’s episode, “Literature in the Audio Age,” is a multidisciplinary collaboration between two departments in the Fairmount College of Liberal Arts & Sciences. I am joined by Dr. Katie Lanning, Assistant Professor of English at WSU. Dr. Lanning is pioneering a new course at Wichita State titled "Literature in the Audio Age," set to launch in the Fall of 2024. In the episode, she gives us a preview of the course as we explore the fascinating intersection of literature and audio technology.
Join us as we dissect a piece of Shakespeare alongside Dr. Lanning and discuss its meaning in the context of audio technology's rapid growth. We'll explore how the experience of literature transforms in the dynamic landscape of the Audio Age, where podcasts, audiobooks, and immersive soundscapes are reshaping the way we engage with narratives.
