As a podcaster and radio producer, I listen to many climate change podcasts. Every now and then though, I hear a well-designed podcast that hits me in the heart and the gut. It becomes a transformative audio experience.
This is exactly what happened when I first listened to Claude Schryer’s conscient podcast. As a sound designer, Claude is able to reach deep into listeners’ minds and even bodies. Sound has that power. I chatted with Claude about his podcast and his own journey as an artist addressing climate change. From that recorded conversation, Claude wove in sound effects and personal reflection.
We encourage you to listen with headphones on.
The conscient podcast / balado conscient is a bilingual series of conversations about arts, conscience, and the ecological crisis. You will find it wherever you listen to podcasts.
Next month, I will feature Dr. Krista Hiser and The Ultimate Cli-Fi Bookclub.
If you like what you hear, you can listen to full episodes of Citizens’ Climate Radio on iTunes, Stitcher Radio, Spotify, SoundCloud, Podbean, Northern Spirit Radio, Google Play, PlayerFM, and TuneIn Radio. Also, feel free to connect with other listeners, suggest program ideas, and respond to programs in the Citizens’ Climate Radio Facebook group or on Twitter at @CitizensCRadio.

Artists and Climate Change is a blog that tracks artistic responses from all disciplines to the problem of climate change. It is both a study about what is being done, and a resource for anyone interested in the subject. Art has the power to reframe the conversation about our environmental crisis so it is inclusive, constructive, and conducive to action. Art can, and should, shape our values and behavior so we are better equipped to face the formidable challenge in front of us.
