Following the appearance of Describer, Lara Torr, on the nations your radio broadcaster to speak about her ‘Realise Your Dream’ grant and her description of James Franco & Seth Rogen spoof of Kanye West “Bound 2” music video, producers of  Triple J’s Veronica and Lewis afternoon broadcast were looking for a describer who could  translate the visual imagery of the planet to listeners.
