Hello from Chicago! My name is Xaris (@xarismartinez) and I’m the assistant to the director at the Center for Documentary Studies. I’m taking over @cdsduke’s social media channels for the next few days as I attend the Third Coast International Audio Festival conference (@thirdcoastfest). Follow along as I give you an insider’s look at the annual gathering of 800+ audio storytellers - including students like me! #CDSatThirdCoast #ThirdCoast17 #ThirdCoastFestival #thefestchicago

Spotted at the main branch of the @chicagopubliclibrary: the first edition of #JohnBiewen and @acdilworth’s “Reality Radio: Telling True Stories in Sound.” John will be speaking later on tonight at #ThirdCoast17 - can’t wait! #CDSatThirdCoast @thirdcoastfest

After a welcome message from @thirdcoastfest co-founder and Executive Director #JohannaZorn, small group breakouts, and happy hour, #ThirdCoast17 attendees are gathering to hear “Late Night Provocations” from a number of producers (including @cdsduke’s #JohnBiewen). As someone interested in telling Spanish-language and bi-lingual stories, I’m particularly excited to hear from #MartinaCastro (co-founder of my favorite podcast, @radioambulante). #CDSatThirdCoast

Last #ThirdCoast17 breakout session: #AlLetson (@al_letson, host of @revealnews), #LeitalMolad (from #FirstLookMedia), #EveEpstein (acquisitions editor for @marketplaceapm), and #KaiWright4 (@place_matters, from @wnyc’s narrative unit) ask “How do we make stories that reach people across our cultural and political divides? How do we respond to a presidency at war with the press? What challenges and successes have we found so far?” #CDSatThirdCoast
