What do you listen to while you are working with clay? How does it affect your work?
Transcript
This is episode 29 of the Mudtalk Podcast and it is a fun one. The topic is, “what do you listen to while you work with clay?”
There were so many responses that I won’t be able to read them all! But if you are in need of some new audio content there will be plenty of ideas in this episode. I thought this would be a great topic because I’m always looking for interesting things to listen to while my hands are busy with clay. Unfortunately it has taken me forever to get this episode recorded so most of the following responses were from a very long time ago.
Thank you for listening to THIS podcast. I hope you are currently working with clay as you listen.
A short disclaimer: I will include a few clips of some of the great suggestions. I don’t own the copyright to any of these works of audio but they are presented here for educational purposes only.
Now that the boring stuff is out of the way, let’s hear what other potters and ceramic artists listen to as they work with clay.
Silence
A few people including Pubali909, and Ingridj1957, enjoy the peace and quiet and listen to the sound of the process or complete silence.
Audiobooks
A few people including Nicolaashley1101, Moequintana1, Anna C-N all mentioned audiobooks.
Rawstudios Audiobooks; the best combination ; the intense meditative effect from the throwing makes the books even more vivid .
Dtaylorsatm Audible books, Perry Mason and Agatha Christie mysteries
Angela M Audiobooks and pottery. Complete bliss
I also enjoy audiobooks. You have probably heard of audible.com, Amazon’s audiobook site. You pay a monthly subscription fee and get to choose a certain number of audiobooks every month. There are also some other similar sites. But did you know there are resources out there that offer FREE audiobooks?
One great free resource I’ve found is called Hoopla. I get free access from my local library. I can can borrow digital items such as ebooks, audiobooks, movies, and music. I think they raised the number to 10 per month during the pandemic! The selection isn’t massive but there is enough to keep me listening.
I have also started using an app called Libby which connects to the Indiana Digital Library. I get access through my local library. They have a much bigger selection but only have a limited number of each item so you may have to get on the waitlist for certain items, just like a physical library.
One more free resource is Librivox. It offers free audio versions of public domain books. Lots of old classics available.
If you are interested I’ll put a link to some of these audiobook resources in the show notes.
Podcasts
Podcasts seem to be a popular choice for a few reasons. Most of them are free. There is always new content. And now you can find a podcast about almost anything you can think of. Just think about the podcast you are listening to right now… One guy with a laptop and microphone reading his favorite replies to social media posts about pottery. What a time to be alive!
