Soundsphere's Dom Smith talks growing up with Cerebral Palsy for Inkblot Films' Reel People5/22/2024  This Reel People focuses on Dom Smith. At this point, we'd normally include what a person does, but it would be easier to say what Dom DOESN'T do. Born with cerebral palsy, he was told he would never achieve what he wanted let alone his dream of being a journalist. In this episode, you'll find why he won't let anyone or anything define him or stop him from achieving his goals. Dom talks about all his loves in life, including Soundsphere, wrestling, and goth culture! About Reel People: We wanted to showcase the talents, creativity and unique stories of real people, creating a series that explores the individual journey and recognises not every journey to success is as smooth as the movies can make out! Camera, Lighting, Editing and Directing - Jay Sillence Producer - Gemma Brown Listen and watch below! We chat about David's favourite bands, from Failure to Nine Inch Nails... Thanks for checking it out! What you’ll doJoin Dom Smith, journalist, musician, disability counsellor and activist, for a gallery tour and workshop inspired by ‘Jason and the Adventure of 254’. In collaboration with mixed-media artist Jay Sillence, Dom will highlight aspects of the exhibition that resonate with his experiences of disability, growing up in Yorkshire and living with cerebral palsy. After the tour, you can take part in a creative drawing workshop with Dom and Jay in the Studio. Using the themes of struggle, transition and formation, you’re invited to share your own experiences and motivations. All materials will be provided. The event will end with an informal question-and-answer session, where you’ll get the chance to chat with Dom and Jay.

When we first interviewed our wonderful friend of the show, Dom Smith (episode 24 if you haven’t listened - you really should!), we were stunned as he talked about his journey with Cerebral Palsy and the questions he gets asked - so many of those questions are extremely personal and normally about sex.
Dom is the first person to put his hands up and be open and honest about this kind of stuff and he became the inspiration behind our sex series - lets talk about the things that people need educating on. Asking the questions that people want to know but are (sometimes!) too afraid to ask! Dom’s life has had some wild and interesting encounters and he’s not afraid to talk about them and what it’s like for disabled folk. We won’t steal his thunder, you can hear what he has to say on his episode out now!
