Limerick School of Art and Design

And remember, as always, you can get in touch with us on 086-123-9595.

Now, I'm delighted to be joined in studio by Ellen Gough, Limerick journalist with the Clare Champion, Tracey Reddy from Citizens Information, and Dr. Simon Maguire, Lecturer of Creative Broadcast and Film Production at LSAD.

You're all very welcome.

Morning.

it, it really is, like, it's kinda disturbing as well for, for so many of us.

It is, and the pressure is on a lot of different groups.

And again, speaking as a lecturer, and myself and my colleagues in the Creative Broadcast and Film Production program in LSAD, we're well aware of AI, and we're trying to teach our students ethical and moral responsibilities when it comes to recording using any device.

But unfortunately, with these glasses, the horse has bolted.

That's what I thought I'd be doing right now, nine years on.

If you have successful industry experience and then you get a master's degree that's relevant to that... experience there's a strong chance well there was nine years ago a strong chance that you can get a job in a college as a lecturer now i only told you i was doing this i think last year because i wasn't lecturing as blind boy i was lecturing as me in real life without a bag on my head basically making my mind up i had my time it's over now let's become a lecturer So I was teaching in the art college, Limerick School of Art and Design.

This time nine years ago.

I'd just started in September.

Um, I would say, like anything, honestly, just start doing classes in sewing, pattern cutting.

I know the, uh, Limerick School of Art and Design as well does some fab evening courses too.

So for any young people who are interested, start dabbling.

Because you might be attracted to fashion as an industry, but there are many, many different types of jobs within the industry.

Anything you want to m- briefly touch on from the visual arts world?

So, yeah, so just very briefly, there's a really interesting exhibition going to be taking place out in the Tulla Stable Studios, whereby, um, the, uh, Clare County Council has been working with Limerick School of Art and Design, um, through Creative Ireland Clare, and they've been exploring Shanakaile Bog, and it's a visual response to, uh, what's going on down there.

There's an art sha- showcase happening in the East Clare C- uh, Co-op as well.

And finally then, just to say that there's the Din Shanachas project, which is taking place in Gloop, but also throughout the county.
