UKCMB webinar: Myth and Mould – Dramatising fungi

Date: Friday 26th April 2024   Time: 10:00 - 11:00   Location: Online

Free webinar from UK Centre for Moisture in Buildings

In this presentation, Marietta Kirkbride speaks about the inspiration and research behind her BBC audio drama series SPORES – a psychological horror story about social-worker, Cassie, who discovers a mould growing in people’s homes that nobody else can see. Sometimes stories can be powerful tools for capturing public imagination and bringing attention to overlooked issues. Drawing on examples in other works of fiction, and her research into housing and fungi, Marietta asks if fungi’s recent prominence in the cultural zeitgeist, could be a catalyst for raising awareness and sparking new ideas when it comes to public health and housing.
