S2 Ep 2: Hetain Patel

Hetain Patel is currently working on The Hobby Cave - an ambitious celebration of our favourite hobbies, which is led by Artangel with a network of 13 partnering organisations including Factory International.

Dream Space is produced by Reduced Listening for Factory International, hosted by Gemma Cairney. This episode was produced by Silvia Malnati, with sound design by Femi Oriogun-Williams, and theme music by Andrew PM Hunt.

Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
