    Welcome to World Wide Waste, a podcast about how digital is killing the planet, and what to do about it. Eric Meyer is a passionate advocate of designing for humanity, of leaving no one behind when you create your design, of thinking deeply about how things work for everyone - not simply how beautiful they look.

                              Hi and welcome to the Decoding Culture podcast on This is HCD.
                              My name is John Curran and I'm your host. I'm a business anthropologist, executive coach and CEO of JC Associates, which is a consultancy that explores how culture shapes organizations and consumer behaviour.
                              Now, I'm recording this introduction to episode 5 on the 30th of March 2020, at a time where London is in lockdown due to COVID-19. Every day feels like we're living in and through a dystopian film. Humanity has no normality while we're frantically trying to redefine cultural norms and rituals.
                              The role of the social sciences is now key, because it is through this interpretive lens that anthropologists and sociologists are able to deconstruct the everyday, also challenge perceptions of normality and facilitate new ways of seeing.

                              Welcome to World Wide Waste, a podcast about how digital is killing the planet, and what to do about it. In this session, I'm chatting with Jeremy Keith. Jeremy is a philosopher of the internet. Every time I see him speak, I'm struck by his calming presence, his brilliant mind and his deep humanity. Jeremy makes websites with Clearleft.

                              His books include DOM Scripting, Bulletproof Ajax, HTML5 for Web Designers, Resilient Web Design, and, most recently, Going Offline. Hailing from Erin's green shores, Jeremy maintains his link with Irish traditional music, running the community site The Session.

                              He also indulges a darker side of his bouzouki playing in the band, Salter Cane.

                              You can find out more about Jeremy at adactio.com.

                                In this episode, I chat with the wonderful Christine Hemphill, MD of Open Inclusion in London, UK.

                                We chat openly about how Design frameworks and methods are failing not only the design community but also the people who end up using these products or services. Christine has a framework that she discusses in this episode that can help the Design community intentionally include inclusivity as part of their way of working.
