If you are interested in worldbuilding as a craft, dystopian worlds, possible futures, transmedia and/or creating within a collaborative transmedia environment, then there’s something here for you. I created the Building Dystopia podcast as a component of my Ph.D. project after I realized the journey I was about to embark upon had room for interested passengers. On Building Dystopia, I have conversations with subject matter experts, worldbuilding experts, transmedia experts, as well as creatives and collaborators. I’m learning with you, and I apply everything I learn to the creation of The Cantiche World.
