Shifting perspectives on complex issues

A podcast from the Santa Fe Art Institute, produced in the traditional territories of the Tewa peoples.
Tilt invites listeners to see complex issues in new ways through the lens of creativity. Each episode is an audio collage assembling a multitude of viewpoints on a different topic, and includes interviews, field recordings, soundscapes and stories representing the diverse communities, creative practitioners, and culture bearers from New Mexico.
