Success will be evaluated in the public radio broadcast of the audio documentary and a public listening event featuring interviewees. 2: Develop my craft as an audio storyteller by producing a long-form work (30 minutes) exploring a complex + nuanced subject of Minnesota historical significance. The successful completion of the audio documentary and licensing of the work by a public radio outlet or podcast.
Nancy Rosenbaum produced the audio documentary she set out to make. The artist completed and released a feature-length audio documentary and organized a community listening event in North Minneapolis at Juxtaposition Arts in June 2019. 2: The artist exceeded the original outcomes. Instead of producing a 30 minute work, she produced a 52 minute feature. A Fiery Unrest: Why Plymouth Avenue Burned' premiered on KFAI in June 2019. The audio documentary was subsequently licensed for broadcast by Minnesota Public Radio, where it aired twice on July 22, 2019 and was heard by a statewide audience.
