About the series
Voices of the Royal Pavilion & Museums is a podcast series that tells the rich and varied stories of the museum people who keep Brighton’s historic buildings and collections relevant, vibrant and accessible for the world we are living in.
The series is presented by Dr Sophie Frost, who was embedded as an action researcher at Royal Pavilion & Museums Brighton and Hove (RPM) throughout 2019. Voices uses the microphone as a medium to hear the learned and lived experiences of staff and volunteers working for this regional museum service. All the interviews were recorded in 2019, the year before management of RPM transferred to the Royal Pavilion & Museums Trust and the coronavirus pandemic lead to the temporary closure of many of our museums.
Sophie is Digital Fellow on the One by One project led by the School of Museum Studies at the University of Leicester, a collaborative project exploring digital literacy in museums.
Production support by Lo-Fi Arts.
