Not Loud Enough Podcast

View Details

In this episode Canan and Laura talk to co/rizom co-founders Alina Serban and Nadja Zerunian about the disappearing of the traditional crafts, what does it mean for our society if artisanship dies out, and what tools co/rizom is developing to support traditional artisans. We get to know the master artisans at the heart of this industry, what fantastic skills they possess, and what challenges they face especially during the pandemic. Our discussion is an invitation to reflect together on our relationship with objects, the value we want to give them, and how they impact humankind’s identity. It is also an invitation to step up and take concrete actions to support this industry. Our guests share what you can do to contribute.

Alina Serban has been living in Vienna since 2004 enjoying the multicultural vibes of the urban space, being involved in theatre and performance projects, participating in the cultural scene of the city and getting inspiration for her work in political equality & participation.

She has been working in philanthropy managing programmes at ERSTE Foundation for 8 years focusing on community development, social entrepreneurship and collaboration with Roma communities in Central and Eastern Europe.

Her love for the aesthetic and the inclusive work-philosophy was the connector to the world of crafts and the motivation behind setting up co/rizom association together with Nadja Zerunian and Andrei Georgescu in 2018

Nadja Zerunian specializes on collaboration with global artisans, developing small limited-edition series highlighting the immense potential, relevance & knowledge of local craft. Current projects are in albania, austria, georgia, romania & uzbekistan. After years as a creative force for big international players like georg jensen, calvin klein & the swatch group, she now focuses on the immediate interaction with the makers. In many cases allowing them their first international exposure.

She advised the ERSTE Foundation Roma Partnership program, was creative consultant for UNIDO, United Nations Industrial Development Organization and is co-founder co/rizom.

I love to tell stories but am afraid of words. an obsessive of sorts - composing & assembling / arranging & rearranging to showcase excellence of master artisans I met over the years. their competence of making things & the ease to materialize thought demand to be shared.

preserving crafts & keeping traditions alive might feel obsolete or seem redundant. an afterthought. a sentimental notion. but creating objects is a fundamental part of human condition & the beginning of it all.

In this special anniversary show, it’s our 10th episode and 3 years since we started this podcast, we go back to our common passion for books, literature, and writing that has been nurturing our daily conversations and friendship, ultimately creating the base for this podcast. You are on a treat for moving stories that even we didn’t get to reveal to each other before about how our passion for the written word and more generally for a creative life started. Spoiler alert: memorable funny childhood moments that involve both our families. We made sure to include in the show authors and books that moved us mostly this year. And we have a pull of recommendations for you to be covered for the holiday season. And that’s not all. We also take you on a tour into our home libraries. Because they don’t only host our books but peculiar objects too. Only some made it to our show (there are many and it was hard to make a selection), the stories they carry and the connections they make to our memories. Finally, we share how our interest for a creative life, for reading and writing shaped our work and helped us becoming better communicators.

We wish you a lovely end of the year and happy listening and reading! We will be back in January 2021 with special guests and conversations that inspire us to live more inclusively and create a more empowering world.

We can never be loud enough about the issues we care about. Much love, Canan & Laura

In this episode, social and data scientist Aurore Paligot shares her fantastic journey of becoming a data scientist after studying literature and getting a Ph.D. in linguistics first. Using examples from her various work, Aurore tells us why is important to bring together various disciplines to inform and give context when creating data, and to create inclusivity. She explains what data is and who creates it, the of role data visualisation, and what the Tada manifesto does for ethical and responsible use of data.

You may also hear us talking about inclusion in sign language, the concept of the magic glove, AI and societal values we embed into AI, and data feminism.

Alongside examples of exciting projects and collaborations Aurore is working on in her free time, as she tries to understand how using social media data can inform us about how citizens live in smart cities; how data helps us understand the ecosystem of a place to build something with it; how we live in the city in times of pandemics and experience the emptiness of the city, and what is the representation of the city from inside.

Aurore Paligot is a linguist turned data specialist whose focus is to deliver meaningful insights and human-centric visualisations. Her research interests currently lie at the intersection between Tech and Social Sciences and part of her free time is spent exploring Digital Humanities. She is also a R-Ladies enthusiast and a keen Tableau developer. Aurore holds a Ph.D. in linguistics from the University of Namur (Belgium) and a specialisation in Advanced Analytics and Machine Learning from the Ubiqum Code Academy (The Netherlands). She has more than eight years of experience working with qualitative, quantitative and experimental research methods and is currently working as a Data & Analytics Consultant at Positive Thinking Company.

In this episode Canan and Laura talk to Imran Rehman and Shawn Ardaiz about what inclusion means and how it can be a reality beyond checking boxes. We ask what is missing to allow us to create action in order to move forward to build more humane, inclusive environments in which individuals have the space to thrive, in which we feel safe and we belong. We discuss what kind of structures we need to put in place and how can we work together to achieve that. And finally, what concrete actions can we take to move the needle?

Imran is a leadership coach and organisational development and change consultant. Building robust dynamic structures for teams and organisations, so they are ready for the future, is his passion. This is what he has specialised in as a coach, whilst accompanying leaders and teams in various organisations (such as Lufthansa, NASA, hospitals and financial institutions) in over 70 countries.

In this episode, Canan and Laura talk about the role of process in their lives. How do we create anything from objects, art, projects, organisations, ourselves and what does it take? With today’s immediacy to produce anything how do we find time for process and reflection? And why sometimes it is liberating to rather focus on the process: to shift our focus away from outcome and dive deep into the opportunities for growth that process offers. They walk you through some of their own processes and reference discussions and books that influenced their journey. They also reveal how this podcast has been a process in itself and what you should expect next.

Not Loud Enough is a podcast hosted by Canan Marasligil and Laura M. Pana in which they talk about feminism, migration and culture in their daily lives.

Canan and Laura are both migrants, outspoken feminists and advocates for social justice, with a strong belief in the role of culture in making change happen across societies. More importantly, they are very close friends.

Both Laura and Canan put their own experiences into everything they do: Laura has created a foundation from scratch, called Migrationlab, which is based on her own journey from Romania to Austria, the Netherlands, through France, and which explores new ways to socially interact and work together through co-design and culture, whereas Canan, coming from a family of Turkish immigrants scattered across Western Europe - in Belgium, Germany, Switzerland and the Netherlands - explores what it means to live between cultures and languages throughout her work as a literary translator, writer, editor and curator of cultural programmes.

The Not Loud Enough podcast came to life out of the many conversations Canan and Laura had each time they met. Throughout the episodes, you will become an insider to those conversations which will hopefully make you think, laugh, at times get angry, but most importantly, it will inspire you to be louder about the issues you care about.

Join our conversations, we can never be loud enough about issues we care about!
