Episode 73 - The Look of Energy

from Talk Description to Me · host Christine Malec and JJ Hunt

Energy infrastructure might not be sexy,  but it's vital to our current way of life. These systems bring electricity to your home and transport oil and gas across continents, but what they actually look like remains a mystery to many people. This week, Christine asks about pipelines, rooftop solar systems, and commercial wind farms, and JJ describes the network of wires that lead from power plants, into your city, down your street, right to your home. This episode was inspired by images from world-renowned photographer Edward Burtynsky, and his work with Toronto's Luminato Festival, which Christine and JJ had the pleasure of contextualizing for Luminato's Disability-led pop-up radio station Radio Lumi.
