Agencies of Design

Welcome to the FrequenciesLab Podcast. Let us give you a little tour of what you can expect from this space.

On FrequenciesLab, we talk a lot about design, agents, systemic change, and

more. But what do these terms even mean? It's not unnecessary jargon, we

promise. And here's why.

In this episode, we rediscover the power of clothing, story-telling, community and gender through the eyes of Harris - and the hurdles that come with finding your agency and setting up your path.

In this episode, Alice, Valentina and Lou discuss the power of crafting stories, framing new narratives, and the guts it takes to assert ourselves as designers, in particular as women in male-dominated industries.

In this episode, Lou and Finn discuss their journeys towards design, why it's essential to rebel against institutions, the dangers of hustle and performance culture, key steps to creating tangible change and how to cope with feelings of inadequacy and climate anxiety.

In this episode, Daze, Valentina and Lou discuss the power of activism and community as tools to regenerative cultures - within ourselves, and our social networks. In this passionate episode, Daze walks us through regaining independence, fostering systems of care and alternative models for life rebellion.

In this episode, Rafa, Lou and Valentina discuss activism and community care as tools to create regenerative and resilient cultures. With a profound and spiritual outlook, Rafa shares her experience reconnecting with her indigenous roots, her repair work in Brazil, and the necessity to decolonise our minds, our communities and our planet.

In this episode, Cleo, Lou and Valentina discuss the importance of delight and scale in our relationships to the spaces around us. Sharing her incredible journey through traumatic brain injuries and the relearning of sensory and motor skills, Cleo breaks down neuroaesthetics, overcoming fear and connecting with deep empathy when wanting to create tangible change - and why beautiful spaces are a civic right.
