We are happy to have Heli with us speaking to her background and her experience and thoughts on isolation. She shares some of the lenses she is considering to use to explore the topic of isolation, such as temporality, embodiment and capitalism.  Lastly, she talks about what excites her the most about coming to the conference as well as her advice to those considering to attend.  Listen to the episode to hear more about it.
