In this week's podcast, guest critic Nick Tapper steps in to replace the incomparable Dion Kagan. We are joined by David Carlin and Francesca Rendle-Short, the editors of 'The Near and the Far' - a new literary anthology that connects Asia and Australia. Then we walk through David Hockney's curious exhibition 'Current', whose various works are largely created and displayed on iPads at the National Gallery of Victoria. Finally, we tune in to 'Viceland', the Canadian and American takeover of SBS' secondary digital channel.
