Episode O3: The Role of Frugal Innovation in The Future of Artistic Practice

Sophie Hope and Hannah Kemp-Welch talk to founder and director of Take A Part Kim Wide and puppeteer, puppet designer and a director of puppet theatre Anurupa Roy. They discuss jugaad, the global practice of subversion as a form of radical practice, and how it relates to their practices in the UK and India.

The BBC has described jugaad as “an untranslatable word for winging it”. The word exists in Hindu, Urdu and Punjabi and describes using whatever you have to hand to make something you need; a process of frugal improvisation.
