About The Geekwave
Hey there, fellow geek!
Where We Started
Some may be surprised to learn we have roots in radio, hence our name. “The Geekwave” actually started out as a radio show created in 2016 by Jarom Norris for our sister platform, K-Ute Radio. It gained enough traction to become its very own platform, and we have been bringing geeks together on the University of Utah campus ever since.
What We Do
The Geekwave strives to make connections between all of you who consider yourselves “Geeks”: those of you who love all things pop culture and hobbies that make you human.
Embracing one’s “geekiness” isn’t merely discussing your favorite show. It’s opening yourself up to new stories, ideas, and communities. It’s a hunger and an impulse to consume new things, to be curious about others and to share and connect with them. For any stage of life it’s a vital skill, but especially for those on a college campus.
Within The Geekwave, there are multiple teams: the Audovisual Team, the Copy/Web Team and the Marketing Team.
Our AudioVisual Team works hard both on-camera and behind the scenes to craft content we are proud to share with the world. From long-form YouTube videos and short-form content for YouTube Shorts, Instagram, and TikTok to full-length podcasts distributed across all major platforms, our team produces engaging media designed to reach all geeks wherever they are. The Geekwave Copy/Web Team is responsible for all the written content you see here on the The Geekwave website! We are a small team of writers, editors, and our fantastic website manager. We work hard to deliver interesting and innovative content twice a week, exploring everything you love to geek out about! Last but definitely not least, the Marketing Team combines several artists creativity together to craft the visual look and feel of The Geekwave. We help create graphics to promote articles, events, or intern opportunities! We also run the Instagram, and work together with the Video Team on TikTok and YouTube.
