Syllabus

This week’s featured syllabus is Syllabus Against Story by Adriene Lilly.

Adriene’s syllabus challenges the hegemony of story in many mediums, including in radio, her own primary discipline. Using three sequences of audio pieces and films, the syllabus demonstrates how to edge away from story. Narrative devices are gradually replaced with alternative frameworks as the reader makes their way through each chain, revealing these forms’ vast potential for complex expression that story too often disguises.
