FLOPCAST Ep 7 Zoe Laughlin

FLOPCAST – powered by UCL Minds – represents a series of 16 short podcast, featuring a diverse range of voices, all from experts in their respective field, telling the stories behind FLOP 13 Stories of Failure, a free exhibition at UCL’s Octagon Gallery. Both the exhibition and the FLOPCASTs invite visitors/listeners to interrogate what failure means to them and why it seems to be so difficult to have an open discussion about things going wrong. The exhibition can be visited at the UCL Octagon Gallery from 21 October 2019 until 10 April 2020. For more information, please visit: http://ucl.ac.uk/culture/flop
