#6: To Change Systems We Need Collaborative and Creative Solutions - Eva Laláková

#9: Together Alone into Together Together: Building Less Lonely Societies Through the Values We Promote - Lucas de Man

Loneliness is all around - even on governmental levels where important decisions about our future are made. A feeling of togetherness is looking to be activated. In this episode Lucas de Man pleads for love as an antidote.   With his company New Heroes he's involved in many different societal projects. What he flags is that our behaviour and thought patterns won't change unless we really connect with each other and act collectively. 🌀 Through their creative studio Biobased Creations they not only talk about change, but actually design, show and build the possible futures.  🪄  Lucas and his team know how: through Artistic Intelligence (yes, AI)... There’s no ignoring the wicked problems we face, but the good things is: everyone now sees and feels (also in their wallets) that things need to change.  🐚 Lucas’ souvenir for you: hug a loved one for more than 20 seconds. It will give you and them energy and you will feel why we are here.  https://biobasedcreations.com/ [https://biobasedcreations.com/]  Hosted by: Daphne Frühmann Editing: Axel Frühmann Music: Mark Oomen Instagram: @theartofcoexistence [https://www.instagram.com/theartofcoexistence/] An Ourcelium Publishers podcast

#8: Mushroom Coatings, Microbial Vending Machines and Some Fermented Passion - Emma van der Leest

After this conversation, you'll want to zoom in on everything you wear, eat, touch, basically everything you see around you. Emma Van Der Leest is a biodesigner, researcher and teacher with a contagiously enthusiastic mission to rethink materials and to embrace microbial life. 🧫🦠  Through her (art) work she invites us to rethink our relationship to food, materials, all the things we use on a daily basis. We can create all of it with help of biotechnology, making it much healthier and sustainable.  🧪She moves between labs and lecture halls, between fungi and the building industry, between science and storytelling. 🌀She’s the best in connecting the dots and making the microscopic feel familiar through speculative design, but also through actual products.  🐚Emma's souvenir: Stay curious. At the end of each day, reflect on what you learned or what sparked your mind, whether it was a scientist, a book, or a vending machine at the train station.  Visit Emma’s website to follow her work www.emmavanderleest.com [http://www.emmavanderleest.com]   Hosted by: Daphne Frühmann Editing: Axel Frühmann Music: Mark Oomen Instagram: @theartofcoexistence [https://www.instagram.com/theartofcoexistence/] An Ourcelium Publishers podcast

#7: What David Bowie, Our Gut Brain and Laughing Rats Teach Us About Queer Ecologies - Kathy High

What do David Bowie, lab rats, our gut, and Queer Ecologies have in common? More than you’d think, and Kathy High is the thread that ties them all together.  👩🏻‍🎤  Kathy is a BioArtist, educator, and activist whose work reminds us that everything is connected. Our gut is our “second brain.” Rats share how we show our joy through their joyful giggles. And queer ecologies reveal that non-binary thinking is everywhere.  This conversation will spark your curiosity about biology, bodies, and the world we share with other species. 🐀🌿  🐚 Kathy’s souvenir: The Abyss Stares Back: Encounters With Deep-Sea Life - by Stacy Alaimo 📚  Visit this website for Kathy's previous, ongoing and upcoming projects: www.kathyhigh.com  Hosted by: Daphne Frühmann Editing: Axel Frühmann Music: Mark Oomen Instagram: @theartofcoexistence [https://www.instagram.com/theartofcoexistence/] An Ourcelium Publishers podcast
