We’ve launched the long-awaited podcast CLOSE ENCOUNTER / FUTURE STORIES. Perhaps the title rings a bell? It corresponds to the programme series from which our performances up to and including 2028 are drawn. The podcast consists of a series of conversations about the future of humanity on Earth, led by the Dutch journalist and interviewer Lex Bohlmeijer.
In the first two episodes, we’ll be exploring these conversations through the lens of ROOM IN OUR HOUSE; an intercontinental collaboration with Indigenous artists from North America. Nicole drew inspiration in part from the book Veerkracht by Dutch expert and activist Serv Wiemers. In the very first episode, Lex Bohlmeijer talks to Nicole and Serv about the Netherlands’ relationship with the Haudenosaunee and their personal encounters with Indigenous peoples. We will soon be recording the next episode with Michelle Schenandoah and Neal Powless. This episode will be in English.
Listen to CLOSE ENCOUNTER / FUTURE STORIES on Spotify, Deezer, Apple Podcasts and the Springcast app.
