I'm not going to lie. Lucy is pretty badass. She ditched her career in the music industry to help fund (and win) legal cases against Shell and other baddies. And more recently launched Climate Spring, which is shifting the narrative on climate change by commissioning screenwriters and filmmakers to create believable near future fiction. This was recorded in front of a live audience in Protein Studio Tisbury. Enjoy.

We catchup with Nicola and Ida from Softer, a series of events that is forging new pathways for the future of the creative and tech industries. They're based in Copenhagen, but have recently completed their first Softer Digital Futures event in London, with many more events in the pipeline. We cover everything from feminist internet, building your own computer and learning how to become a farmer. Enjoy.

Sari is a natural born operator. With her infectious energy and cultural curiosity, she came out of VC land to launch Startupy, an AI-powered search engine for founders which then led onto Sublime, a new platform for curating and sharing your best internet discoveries. We cover a wide range of topics from being an outsider in a foreign country to building lovable (rather than viable) products and doing all of this whilst being a mum of 3 young kids. Enjoy.

In this episode, we chat with MAYAgirl#1 about changing our relationship with the internet by slowing it down with her MAYAworld project. She’s is a long time friend and Protein Founder Member, so have already appreciated her view on where we are all heading. This is pretty wild one, so enjoy the ride 🌀

In this episode, we chat with Sam Walton, the founder of Hole & Corner magazine, which recently celebrated it's 10th birthday. We cover a wide range of topics, from the importance of creating a place to refine your craft (whatever that might be), discovering the previously unheard voices of makers around the world, and how new generations are responding to traditional craft techniques. It was recorded in our new Protein Studio in Tisbury where we also have a selection of Hole & Corner prints on the walls. I hope you enjoy it.

In this episode, we chat with Simon and Jack from Nearfield, a self titled “Time Out for the UK countryside” that celebrates the creators, curators, and communities that are making things happen in Bath, Bristol and beyond. We cover the emotional need of bringing people together and the importance of local communities in creating a sense of place. This was our first recording from our new Protein Studio in Tisbury, with a bunch of our members in attendance, which felt appropriate on numerous levels. We hope you enjoy it.

In this episode, I chat with long-time Protein Studios member, Oscar Bellville from Kintzing, a new generation artists agency and licensing platform that represents a global network of freelance creatives. We cover a wide range of topics, from sibling rivalries and how artist representation models are broken to the role of AI and how it could support, instead of clone, creative's work.

For this episode, we spoke to Amber Atherton about her new book, the Rise of Virtual Communities, which dives into the platforms and spaces that have shaped some of the most influential online subcultures ... something that's always close to our heart here at Protein.

For this episode, we spoke to Pali and Anoushka, the co-founders of TEMPLO, a branding and digital agency that focusses on creativity for change. TEMPLO are longstanding members of Protein Studios, so it's about time we had them on the podcast to hear about what they've been up to, and what it’s like to set up a company as a couple.

For this episode, we have the pleasure of sitting down with Austin Robey from Metalabel and Severin Matusek from co-matter to talk about their After the Creator Economy project, which questions if we will still be clicking like and follow in 15 years time? Both a longtime friends of Protein, so it was great to record this inperson ahead of their London launch event in our Studio in Shoreditch.
