Able Audio
Music technology provides musicians with exciting ways of making and recording music, but so
often, both musicians and technology companies leave out the needs of disabled peoples.
Able Audio explores the intersection of disability and music technology. Join host Sam Morgan,
as this six-episode podcast series seeks to bring to light the exciting work people are doing in
this space, elevating the voices and concerns of disabled people in music technology. In each
episode, we talk to a different music technologist about their practice, background in music, and
how their work intersects with the world of disability.
Welcome to the Able Audio podcast, proudly bought to you by the New Zealand Music
Commission with support from Arts Access Aotearoa.
