Melodic Minds explores interdisciplinarity in music creation. Hosted by Dr. Lynn Falconer (aquaculture researcher, University of Stirling) and Dr. Beth Mills (infectious disease researcher, University of Edinburgh) — two UKRI Future Leaders Fellows — the podcast uncovers how music, science, technology, and creativity collide. Born out of a UKRI Future Leaders Fellowship Crucible event in Sheffield and Liverpool, every episode brings a leading UK researcher or artist into conversation about the surprising overlaps between their art and the wider world of science, research, and human connection. Topics span musical technologies for dementia, jazz improvisation and group language, orchestral conducting, data sonification, indeterminate composition, and live coding and algorithmic music. Whether you work in a lab, a studio, or somewhere in between, Melodic Minds is for anyone who believes the best ideas come from unlikely combinations.
