In this episode, we talk about material culture with Maikel Kuijpers. Material culture concerns that aspect of society that is grounded in material objects. As an archeologist, Maikel is specialized in material use over time. Although archeology focuses on the past, Maikel interestingly enough uses his knowledge to create a more sustainable future. In this episode, we will therefore talk about sustainable material use, craftsmanship and the role of a scientist when bringing a message to the public. Maikel shares many interesting thoughts on this, as he isn't only a scientist, but also author at De Correspondent and director of the documentary “The Future is Handmade”.
