Adventures in Radio: Hannah Silva

Scriptwriter Hannah Silva in conversation with author and presenter Barney Norris

Join acclaimed playwright, novelist and host of the Adventures in Radio podcast series, Barney Norris, as he talks to Hannah Silva about her radio drama, An Artificially Intelligent Guide to Love. What of the formative role radio has played in Hannah’s life? What of her introduction to the phenomenal potential of sound, language, and voice? What of the breaking down of rules, the experimentation with cross-genre form and the surrealist nature of AI collaboration? Barney and Hannah discuss all this and more in this lively discussion from the Adventures in Radio team at the Society of Authors.

Hannah’s play, An Artificially Intelligent Guide to Love, was directed and produced by Nicolas Jackson. It is an Afonica production for BBC Radio 4. For full production credits please visit: Drama on 4 – An Artificially Intelligent Guide to Love – BBC Sounds
