One of our latest Access2Arts projects, the ‘Making **it Happen’ Producer Podcasts, has seen us interviewing some fantastic South Australian disability arts producers about their experiences to gain a better understanding of what the industry currently looks like.
You can learn more about our ‘Making **it Happen’ Producer Podcasts project on our projects page here, alongside other producers we have interviewed.
In this first episode, South Australian disabled music producer Tyson Hopprich (a.k.a DJ TR!P) speaks with producer Matt Shilcock. Matt Shilcock is a South Australian contemporary dance theatre artist with Osteogenesis Imperfecta. After spending much of his youth in a wheelchair, he learned to walk at fifteen and now practices dance, fitness, and martial arts. He has performed professionally since 2009, working with companies across Australia and internationally.
You can listen to Matt’s interview on Access2Art’s ‘Make **it Happen’ Producer Podcast here:

This podcast was funded by Arts South Australia and produced by Access2Arts.
On the Artist Interview page Access2Arts asks an interviewer to talk to an artist.
An interview is a conversation where the interviewer asks questions and the person answering is called the interviewee.
The interviewer’s job is to find out about the artist called the interviewee.
To do this, the interviewer asks lots of questions.
The interviewer gives Access2Arts a great story about the artist and we put it on our website.
The interviews can be written for you to read.
Recorded so you can listen to the interview.
On video so you can watch the interview.
Sometimes the interviewer gets very creative. The interview is like art!
