  • S05E06 Circular Construction: Redefining the Future with Dominik Campanella | Concular
    Aug 22 2024

    What if our buildings could carry the stories of the past while paving the way to a CO2-neutral future?

    In this episode, I sit down with Dominik Campanella, CEO and Co-Founder of Concular, a Berlin-based company dedicated to transforming the construction sector.

    Circular construction is often dismissed as a niche market for rural private residences - but is that really the case? In fact, this approach is quickly becoming a requirement in the future of architecture and city planning.

    Dominik shares Concular's journey in developing innovative processes, digital tools, and circular value chains to create a more sustainable future - from insurance products to the urban mining hub in Berlin.

    This episode will challenge your thinking on circular construction and its real-world applications.

    Join us as we explore how innovation, sustainability, and the stories embedded in our built environment can shape a more connected and responsible world.

  • S05E05 Deep Curiosity and the Rhythms of Creation with Rinat Sherzer
    Jul 23 2024

    What if we celebrated ‘a night in?’

    In this episode, I had the pleasure of hosting Rinat Sherzer, a visionary dreamer, passionate creator, and relentless advocate for both the earth and humanity.

    Rinat, currently a PhD candidate at RMIT, brings a wealth of experience to our conversation. She is a biotech engineer, transdisciplinary designer and artist, social entrepreneur, and educator. Rinat divides her time between teaching at Parsons School of Design in New York and serving as the Head of Design & Innovation at Wix Studio, while also giving keynote speeches worldwide. Previously, she was the Head of Design Management & Innovation at Bezalel Academy.

    Rinat combines principles from biomimicry and strategic design to create a cultural shift towards an egalitarian society. We explore the concept of "the rhythm of the egg"—an intriguing idea that challenges our conventional approach to life and success. Rinat’s perspective encourages us to slow down, appreciate the quieter moments, and find joy in simplicity.

    Is the fastest always the winner?

    How can we turn inward and uncover the unique gifts within ourselves, especially in the context of Western society and the relentless summertime mindset?

    In an era rife with burnout, what is truly worth chasing?

    And what if we could replace fear with curiosity?

    Join us to discover how we can collectively drive a cultural shift towards a more equitable and sustainable future. For show notes & links visit TNM official website

  • S05E04 Anthropology, Environment, and Consciousness: Insights from Hunter-Gatherer Societies with Dr. Daniel Naveh
    Jul 9 2024

    If I weren’t an architect, I would have become an anthropologist. My fascination with cultures from around the globe has fueled my imagination for as long as I can remember.

    In this episode, I had the immense pleasure of hosting someone who has profoundly expanded my understanding of hunter-gatherer societies and their worldview, and what it means for our lives today and the current state of the world. Dr. Daniel Naveh, who lived with the Nayaka for over a year, joins us to share his insights.

    Dr. Daniel Naveh is an anthropologist and an environmental studies lecturer at Tel Aviv and Bar-Ilan Universities. He spent over a year among hunter-gatherers in the forests of South India. His research focuses on the environmental perceptions, consciousness, and educational practices of hunter-gatherer societies.

    Daniel shares his personal story of living with the Nayaka in India, highlighting the unique ways hunter-gatherers understand and interact with their environment and the relevance of this perspective to the current climate crisis. We also discuss how anthropological lessons from hunter-gatherers and additional scientific discoveries can help us reconnect with plants, animals, and the astonishing nature of reality.

    What are the valuable lessons that modern societies can learn from the wisdom of hunter-gatherer cultures? Tune in to expand your understanding and discover how ancient wisdom can transform our modern world.
