Peep This Noise is a podcast centered on critical analysis of media of all kinds. We’ll be aiming for an open minded, approachable discussion of a variety of topics in literature, film, music, theatre, games, and other forms of art. As we cover various pieces, we examine things like:
Representation of ethnicity, belief, and gender in media;
Framing and representation of disability in art;
How writers explore and portray physical and emotional trauma;
How various genres, including science fiction and fantasy, provide metaphors for and potential solutions to modern society’s most troubling problems, such as violence, hate, and socioeconomic/environmental crises;
Perspectives for critical analysis, including (but not limited to) feminist, queer studies, and Marxist reads of media.

Florence is an independent mobile game which hails from Australia, where it was developed by a small team called Mountains in Melbourne. The game is a touching rendition of a beautiful relationship, and what it means to fall in love.
In this episode, we dive into the game's soundtrack, and some of the fascinating gameplay elements. We talk about how these pieces contribute to the storytelling of the game in meaningful ways, and we talk about our favorite parts. Things also get pretty personal as we discuss some of our own relationships, and where the game hit us hardest.
If you were intimidated by the fact we chose a game (maybe you're not really a gamer) don't be! It's easy enough to play, and if for some reason you aren't able to access the game's main content on your own, there are places to watch it be played (like on YouTube).
Thanks for listening; hope you enjoy!!
