World of Wisdom

Dr Martin Lorenz (LI) and Emily Harris (LI) came by the podcast. We spoke about their project the Anti-Brief and their reimagining of the design profession: from a profession of knowing to one of discovery. Inviting learning and conversation to its very center. This is a conversation about deep codes, conversational design and an invitation towards a different posture. Martin and Emily are currently launching a new master with Elisava - that also shows up in the conversation. This is an introduction to a different way of thinking about transdisciplinarity beyond mere interdisciplinary. We also speak of the generative move between theory (the meta) and that materiality and much more related to the practice of systems change. Life ennobling design. Enjoy!

Tharald Nustad (LI) and Evita Chiang Zanuso (LI) visited the podcast and we spoke in-depth about the Katapult ecosystem, where it is currently at and the Katapult Future Fest. This is a call to attend to this event that is one of the catalysing events in the impact space. This year in Amsterdam end of may. We spoke of what the metamorphosis is, what it means to focus and not spreading yourself to thin, how one can begin moving beyond control in investing and why fun is still an important parameter, even when looking at the state of the world. Enjoy!

Ryan James Kemp (LI) came on the podcast and we spoke of the Original Living Responsibilities (LI), living at the pace of the planet and the important of sequence. We spoke of why goals are present fobic, how circular time works, how finding a different pace may change everything. That grief is the metabolic movement of becoming reconnected. We also touch on (Re)biz the unschool for systems learning, complimentary dualities, what it means to be in relationship with life and the planet. We go deep without getting abstract - this conversation was an incredibly powerful transmission. Enjoy!

Lex Empress (LinkTree)vocalist, systems thinker and the founder of Soulsong came by the podcast. We dove deep into what singing is, what it means to be in a commercial world as artist. Performance and presence, the tension between them and how they scaffold one another. We spoke of what it is to be in contact with what is and the transformative power of devotion to the present. We spoke of truth and its ever-changing, contextual quality. The courage to let be alive what is and to move towards it. This is a conversation that touches mostly on fame, performance, artistry through song but it is about all of it. This is a conversation about wisdom, facilitation and what it takes to follow the aliveness that is at the core of the shift we are in. Enjoy!

Marina Mussapi (LI) at the Moleskin Foundation came by the podcast and we spoke of creativity as a vehicle for transformation. How can we support and invest in the arts without corrupting their spirit? What does it look like to invest contextually in local contexts to empower creators? What does it look like to decanter the heroic role of the investor and focus on creating conditions for movement? We speak of this throughout the work Marina is doing with the Creative Pioneers Fund among other things. We also speak of the centrality of questions and inquiry and right towards the Marina brings the liberating word of tenderness into the conversation. This is a wonderful conversation that relate to investing regeneratively in regenerative projects and a different way of moving in the world. Enjoy.
