In the first episode of our new series, 'Inspired', Michael ‘Mikey J’ Asante - co-founder and co-artistic director of Barbican Artistic Associate, Boy Blue – talks to Oscar-winning director, Danny Boyle in an energetic conversation about process, creation, collaboration, unlikely inspirations – and the power of film, music and British creativity. 

Inspired is a new series on the Barbican podcast, Nothing Concrete where we ask an artist to invite someone who has inspired, influenced or impacted their creative lives to share the stories behind their connection. Each episode was recorded remotely during lockdown. While the Barbican Theatre remains closed, these deeply personal and open conversations bring together creatives across the arts to celebrate the lasting connections and support that artists show for one another.
