| #9: Together Alone into Together Together: Building Less Lonely Societies Through the Values We Promote - Lucas de Man | 21 Jun 2026 | 00:55:15 | |
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/ Hosted by: Daphne Frühmann | |||
| #8: Mushroom Coatings, Microbial Vending Machines and Some Fermented Passion - Emma van der Leest | 07 Jun 2026 | 00:56:08 | |
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.

| #3: We Must Embrace Nature as Our Most Valuable Asset. Let's Start With Oysters - George Birch | 01 Mar 2026 | 00:46:46 | |
🌊 Heaven is a place on Earth - it’s in the Ocean George Birch from Oyster Heaven enlightens us with all the benefits oyster reefs have to offer us. Oyster Heaven is on a mission to regenerate oyster reefs on a large scale, with a vision that this will positively impact societies on different levels. We learn about the creation of a Mother Reef from start to successful (and continuing) finish, and we dive into the meaning of ecosystem services. It seems that our current (capitalist) economic system is not valuing these correctly. George shares how Oyster Heaven challenges the status quo by offering an eco-positive value system, with oyster reefs. 🧑🎨 George’s inspiration: diversify your interests. Finding creative outlets, because different parts of your life can spin each other up in a very beautiful way. 📚 The Unnatural History of the Sea by Callum Roberts 🐚 🦪 George’s souvenir for you: Keep eating oysters. Ask for more oysters. And go out, look at the sea. Not that long ago things were really different, try to look into that - it's wild and cool and it's such a thin shade of what is possible. 🌀Follow Oyser Heaven or go to their website for more information.

| #2: Can We Make Ourselves Immortal? - Marta de Menezes | 15 Feb 2026 | 00:59:24 | |
Marta de Menezes is a Portuguese artist who works at the intersection of art and biology. Here, she explores how biological sciences offer us conceptual and aesthetic opportunities. She is named one of the pioneers of BioArt, but calls herself an artist first; she makes art, and sometimes that art belongs into the field of BioArt, sometimes it doesn't.

| #1: Healthy Soil Grows Healthy Ecosystems for Nature, Society and Our Economy - Diane van der Marel | 01 Feb 2026 | 00:56:41 | |
In this very first episode of The art of co-existence, Daphne is joined by Diane van der Marel, a Dutch artist, photographer and impact investor. Diane talks about her strong connection to nature, her artistic practice and she shares a very personal story about letting go, grief and nature’s ability to connect on a deeper level. By observing the wild spirit of her garden, Diane has learned to trust that a healthy, composted soil grows strong ecosystems. She applies this metaphor not only in her garden, but also to understand the way we relate to societies, economies and ourselves. Make sure to listen all the way to the end, because she also announces the launch of a very exciting project on her land, starting in spring 2026 - for more information give @oud.terranova a follow on Instagram. Content note: This episode contains a personal story about mental illness and suicide, which some listeners may find distressing. Diane’s inspiration: 👩🎨 Anaïs Lopez 📚 Braiding Sweetgrass by Robin Wall Kimmerer 🐚 Diane’s souvenir for you: try to really connect with something which is alive. Observe with all your senses: your eyes, ears, smell and touch. Set a timer if you like, but just observe for at least 15 to 20 minutes and see what happens. Hosted by: Daphne Frühmann | |||

| Bonus #1: There is Music in Talking to Strangers - Mark Oomen | 19 Apr 2026 | 00:51:08 | |
Musician and friend of the podcast Mark Oomen makes music. But that's not really what this episode is about. You might know his work from the soundtrack of this podcast, but Mark's world stretches much further than that. We talk about his creative, musical and social projects. Mark makes a pretty compelling case that musicians might just be some of the most important people in the room right now. Not because music is beautiful, but because it can also be political. And connects people. It tells stories that need telling, and it has the power to start much needed conversations. This one's a musical journey with a message for social change. 🐚 Mark’s souvenir for you: talk to a stranger today, tomorrow and all the days after 📚 and familiarize yourself with the work of Esther Stanford-Xosei Other links Hosted by: Daphne Frühmann | |||

| #5: We Can Dream and Create Deep Time Forests into Our Land - Evgenia Emets | 29 Mar 2026 | 01:00:40 | |
For episode #5 we invited Evgenia Emets: a visual artist and founder of Eternal Forest, who believes the land is a sentient being with its own dream. And that if we learn to listen, it will tell us exactly what it needs. 🪨 Her starting point is deep time. In her latest artwork a fossilized tree inspired the question: if forests once covered this land, what stops us from dreaming them back into existence? Evgenia explains how art can play an important role in exploring and understanding deep time and forest time. 🌳 We also unpack her vision for Eternal Forest which she founded with an ambition to create 1.000 forest sanctuaries for 1.000 years. 📚 The Overstory by Richard Powers 🐚 Evgenia’s souvenir for you: explore how to live in forest time. Find an old growth forest. Observe. What is esthetically and emotionally there? Notice how it feels different from young plantation forests. It might change your life… Find more information on Evgenia's website, on her YouTube channel @EvgeniaEmets and visit www.eternalforest.earth Hosted by: Daphne Frühmann | |||
