<p>Memefest Radical Design is a new special monthly podcast re-thinking the radical potentials of design. We are interested in design's role in creating a world based on flourishing of</p><p>human and all natural life. A focus of our podcast is looking into the key aspects of capitalist domination and resistance to it through design.</p><br><p>Our first series: Radical Intimacies features deep dialogues in non -extractive design around ideas presented in the book Radical Intimacies, Designing Non-Extractive Relationalities. The book's five sections explore dialogue, power, land, interventions, and radical praxis and so our podcast will focus on these themes. Oliver Vodeb is in conversation with the amazing co-contributors to the book. We are interested in design that aims to operate outside the dominant disciplines and extractive paradigms and is about imagining, articulating and building new worlds and social relations. How can extradisciplinary design work toward non-extractive relationalities? A co-production of Memefest and Intellect publishers. Find the book here: https://www.memefest.org/publishing/radical-Intimacies/</p><br><p>Memefest is an international network engaged in the transformation of social relations through radical design. Our main focus is the decolonisation of knowledge and the public sphere + social and environmental change. We integrate education, publishing, research, and the organization of events, as well as the facilitation and production of various media and interventions in the public sphere. Memefest is independent and operates in collaboration with universities, practitioners and social movements. Our approach counters the management of pedagogy, channels knowledge from different disciplines and connects the university with critical, marginal and counter-cultural positions. We create impossible spaces for deep exchange in the undercurrents.</p><br><p>CREDITS:</p><br><p>Hosted by: Oliver Vodeb/ Memefest</p><br><p>Music: Bait: two best friends meeting seasonally in bucolic surrounds to generate improvised music.
