Stand-up poet Kate Fox explores her fascination with Doctor Who and the Tardis, and tells us about the way it has influenced her way of being as a neurodiverse artist.

In this series, artists, writers and thinkers tell us about the ways they have been shaped by their 鈥榳ays of being鈥�, their individual bodies 鈥� what freedoms they allow, and their sensitivities or limits. They also explore how their work has been shaped and informed by the body, its freedoms and limits. And as many creative people have discovered - limits can lead to originality, and freedoms can offer 鈥榤ore of the same鈥�.

Kate is the third of our essayists to let us into their particular 'way of being' via their relationship with a cultural touchstone (whether it鈥檚 a poem, a singer, a television series, or a story from the Bible). Each tells us about something that has enriched their own creativity, and brought them closer to appreciating their own way of being.
