Lieke is a Senior Researcher at the Center for Art and Society at the Hanze University of Applied Sciences in Groningen, the Netherlands, and works as a freelance curator. She is the author of "Resonating Sacralities: Dynamics Between Art and Religion in Postsecular Netherlands" and "Beyond the Return of Religion: Art and the Postsecular." She co-edited with others the volume "Museums as Ritual Sites, Civilizing Rituals Reconsidered" and the (open-access) "Bloomsbury Handbook of Religion and Heritage in Contemporary Europe." She previously curated the exhibitions "Mary Magdalene" in 2021 and "The Genesis of Science" in 2024 at Museum Catharijneconvent, and edited their accompanying publications.In this conversation, Lieke and I explore how contemporary art engages spirituality and can function as a form of material religion. We look at the challenges artists face in expressing the sacred within a largely secular culture, how migration shapes religious imagery, and what it means to curate exhibitions that take spiritual themes seriously. We also reflect on how the sacred continues to surface within modern visual culture.

Tijdens de (halve) marathons van Utrecht, Groningen en Amersfoort kregen lopers te maken met hoge temperaturen en een benauwde luchtvochtigheid. Meerdere deelnemers werden onderweg onwel. Dat roept vragen op: is het wel verstandig om een wedstrijd te lopen in zulke warme omstandigheden? En wat kun je als loper doen om de risico's te beperken? In deze aflevering duiken we in de uitdagingen van hardlopen in de hitte. Welke invloed hebben warmte en luchtvochtigheid op je prestaties? Hoe pas je je tempo, voeding en hydratatie aan? En welke verantwoordelijkheid ligt er bij organisaties wanneer de omstandigheden zwaar worden? Imo blikt terug op zijn deelname aan de Marathon van Utrecht en vertelt wat hij goed deed, maar ook welke fouten hij maakte. Susan deelt haar ervaringen van wedstrijden in extreem warme omstandigheden, waaronder races in Doha en Berlijn, en geeft praktische tips voor lopers die met hitte te maken krijgen.

Nederland loopt al rond 2030 kans op lokale stroomuitval, waarschuwt TenneT in een nieuw advies aan het ministerie van Economische Zaken. Door een sneller stijgende elektriciteitsvraag en het wegvallen van kolencentrales is er bij weinig zon en wind te weinig productiecapaciteit, tenzij het kabinet snel een capaciteitsmechanisme invoert om onder meer gascentrales open te houden. Het vertrouwen van Europeanen in de Verenigde Staten als veiligheidsgarant is historisch laag, blijkt uit een opiniepeiling in vijf landen van de European Council on Foreign Relations. Burgers zien de VS minder als vanzelfsprekende beschermer, willen een zelfstandiger Europa met hogere defensie-uitgaven en meer Europese wapenproductie, maar steunen geen snelle EU-toetreding van Oekraïne of inzet van Europese troepen daar. Rijkswaterstaat schrapt gepland onderhoud aan honderden kilometers rijkswegen en tientallen bruggen, tunnels en viaducten, vooral in Groningen, Friesland, Drenthe en Utrecht, omdat het geld op is. In totaal gaat het om 92 km nieuw asfalt, 130 km herstelasfalt en ruim 100 km vangrail die voorlopig niet worden aangepakt, terwijl minister Vincent Karremans binnen twee weken met een afwegingskader komt dat bepaalt welke infraprojecten nog wel doorgaan.

DE WAKERS AAN DE MAASIn de eerste aflevering van Alternatieve Feiten: Wat als de Belgische Revolutie mislukt was? kon je meemaken hoe ik via een obscuur programma in een parallelle wereld terechtkwam, waar koning Willem-Alexander II die dag officieel de nieuwe federale regeringszetel in Brussel opende. Het gebouw met de naam Noordzeepoort, moest symbool staan voor de eenheid van onze natie, van Groningen tot Aarlen. Het Ministerie van Taalharmonie en Regionale Gevoeligheden maakt die dag ook de nieuwe Taalharmonie-index bekend, en eindelijk was er goed nieuws voor de boeren: na weken van onderhandelen werd eindelijk een akkoord bereikt over de exportverhouding tussen Gouda en Orval. Maar hoe verliep de Eerste Wereldoorlog dan, als daar een groot en sterk Noordzeerijk in de weg lag voor een Duits offensief? En als die Grote Oorlog niet eindigde op het trauma van Versailles, is het dan mogelijk dat ene Adolf Hitler tot een voetnoot in de geschiedenis zou worden gereduceerd?In deze tweede aflevering buigen we ons vooral over de gevolgen voor de Grote Oorlog. Hoe het nazisme daardoor geen kans kreeg om een factor van belang te worden, lees je in het ebook waarin het hele verhaal verteld wordt: Alternatieve Feiten: Wat als de Belgische Revolutie mislukt was?

Talk Talk. De band van Mark Hollis bracht in tien jaar tijd slechts vijf albums uit, daarna volgde nog een soloplaat van Hollis en toen was het klaar. De komende maand, juni, is het 40 jaar geleden dat de band live in ons land speelde. Dat was in de Evenementenhal in Groningen. In augustus volgden er nog twee concerten in Ahoy' in Rotterdam. Dit is het verhaal van de opvallende transformatie van een punker die via synthpop eindigde als een pleitbezorger voor complexe, tijdloze muziek en stilte.

One of the key components of soundscape research is the focus on the perspective of the listener. However, that perspective may shift depending on the listener's personal characteristics, their cultural background, and other factors. In this episode, Katie Chatburn (Manchester Metropolitan University), Kirsten Van Den Bosch (University of Groningen), and Arezoo Talebzadeh (Ghent University) discuss perspectives that may be overlooked in standard soundscape research practice, as well as share ways to ensure that acousticians use more inclusive methodologies in their soundscape studies.Associated paper: K. Chatburn, K. van den Bosch, and A. Talebzadeh. "A critical perspective on inclusion and diversity in soundscape studies."

BUFFALO, NY — May 20, 2026 — A new #editorial was #published in Volume 18 of Aging-US on May 18, 2026, titled “Public health in the age of longevity interventions: from prevention to system-wide resilience.” The editorial was authored by Jochen Mierau from the University of Groningen and Aging-US Editor-in-Chief Marco Demaria from the University of Groningen and European Research Institute for the Biology of Ageing (ERIBA). In this editorial, the authors examine how modern public health systems may need to evolve as aging populations increasingly face chronic disease, frailty, multimorbidity, and progressive loss of function rather than the acute infectious diseases that shaped 20th-century medicine. The authors argue that many of the greatest gains in human lifespan historically came not from advanced medical technologies, but from broad public health interventions such as sanitation, vaccination, improved nutrition, occupational safety, safer housing, and access to education. While these measures remain essential, they suggest that modern aging societies now face a different challenge: extending healthspan alongside lifespan. The editorial highlights how today's health risks accumulate gradually across the life course through environmental, metabolic, social, and behavioral exposures. Ultra-processed foods, pollution, tobacco, alcohol, sedentary lifestyles, climate-related stressors, and social isolation are described as contributors to accelerated biological aging and increased vulnerability to chronic disease. The authors emphasize that these interconnected exposures cannot be fully addressed through disease-specific treatment alone. “Rather than representing separate or competing domains, these approaches should be viewed as complementary components of a unified strategy to improve population health across aging societies.” A major focus of the article is the growing scientific interest in longevity-directed interventions that target core biological mechanisms of aging. The authors discuss pathways including cellular senescence, chronic inflammation, metabolic dysfunction, and impaired proteostasis, noting that interventions directed at these processes may help delay or modify multiple age-related diseases simultaneously rather than treating each condition individually after it emerges. Importantly, the editorial emphasizes that longevity interventions should not replace either public health or conventional clinical medicine. Instead, the authors propose a coordinated framework operating across the life course. In this model, public health strategies reduce baseline risk and environmental damage, clinical medicine treats established disease, and longevity-focused therapies may help slow biological decline before major pathology becomes clinically apparent. Figure 1 of the paper (page 2) illustrates this proposed multi-layered framework integrating public health, longevity interventions, and disease-specific care across different stages of life.

A pesar de que la Antártida no pertenece a ninguna nación y que, según el Tratado de Washington de 1959, debe ser dedicado exclusivamente a actividades pacíficas y científicas, el turismo en el continente helado se ha triplicado en la última década. Entrevista con el científico y climatólogo Raúl Cordero que llama a poner coto a un turismo que amenaza con convertir a la Antártida en un balneario para ricos. Admirar paisajes helados que serán cada vez más excepcionales con el calentamiento global, avistar pingüinos y cachalotes y experimentar los atardeceres polares son algunas de las experiencias únicas que atraen a cada vez más turistas en la Antártida. A pesar de que este continente al sur de nuestro planeta no pertenece a ninguna nación y que, según el Tratado internacional de Washington de 1959, debe ser dedicado exclusivamente a actividades pacíficas y científicas, se observa un boom del turismo en el continente helado. Y es que, además de los cruceros para admirar los icebergs, las agencias de viajes se proponen hacer kayak entre los icebergs, bucear o incluso tomarse una copa de champaña en la banquisa. El elevado costo de los viajes - entre 5.000 $ y 100.000 $ para los tours más lujosos- no impide el aumento sustancial del turismo en este continente. Durante la temporada 2024-2025, se registraron cerca de 118.162 visitas en la Antártida -principalmente estadounidenses -, una cifra que se ha triplicado en una década. Y de estos miles de turistas, cerca de 90.000 de ellos pisaron el continente blanco. Este boom del turismo antártico, sin embargo, ya tiene impactos en la nieve y pone en riesgo la tranquilidad y la salud de la fauna. En este contexto, varias voces piden poner coto al turismo en este continente que pertenece a todos y a nadie al mismo tiempo. Aunque en la última temporada, la Asociación de Turoperadores de la Antártida (IAATO) observa una disminución del 5% del número de turistas, el científico Raúl Cordero teme que la curva siga aumentando de forma exponencial si no se pone límites al turismo. Desde la Universidad de Groningen, en Holanda, el climatólogo monitorea la contaminación y la calidad del aire en la Antártida gracias a datos de una de las estaciones científicas ubicadas en este continente. “En la Antártida, de acuerdo, al texto del Tratado Antártico, es el continente de la paz y de la ciencia. Yo creo que tiene que mantenerse de esa manera y convertirlo en el continente de los ricos sería un error”, alerta Cordero, en entrevista telefónica con Radio Francia International. “Todos los que van a la Antártica como turistas son personas ricas, observa el climatólogo”. “Entonces, convertir en Antártica en un resort de lujo es, digamos, no va en el espíritu del Tratado Antártico. El turismo antártico tiene que ser racionalmente acotado para minimizar los impactos”, recomienda el Cordero, quien ha realizado cerca de 15 misiones de exploración en la Antártida. La huella de los combustibles fósiles En 2022, el científico demostró -junto con otros colegas- que el continente blanco ya no era tan virgen como se pensaba. En un estudio publicado en la revista Nature, él y sus colegas demostraron la presencia de carbono negro de origen humano en la Antártica. “Actividades humanas en general en Antártica, relacionadas con el turismo y la investigación, son muy intensivas en el uso de energía y utilizan mucho combustible fósil diésel, una fuente de carbono negro”, detalla Cordero. “El carbono negro es material particulado fino que está al depositarse sobre la nieve oscureciéndola, y acelerando su derretimiento”. Los científicos calcularon que cada turista en promedio es responsable de acelerar el derretimiento de hasta 200 toneladas de nieve. Una cifra que alcanza las mil toneladas para los científicos que visitan la Antártida. Los científicos per cápita contaminamos cada vez que vamos en la Antártica, porque nosotros nos quedamos mucho más tiempo que un turista, y además utilizamos a veces equipo y maquinaria pesada para diversas actividades científicas”, concede Cordero. “Esa es una de las razones por las que yo no he ido a la Antártica personalmente en años recientes, porque lo que nosotros hemos tratado de hacer en los últimos años, es mandar solo el número de científicos que realmente es necesario”, asegura. El riesgo de transmisión de enfermedades Por su lado, las empresas turísticas aseguran que tratan de minimizar sus emisiones de carbono con el uso de barcos híbridos. Interrogada por RFI, la Asociación de Turoperadores de la Antártida (IAATO) afirma tomarse “muy en serio” el riesgo potencial de transmisión de enfermedades a la fauna silvestre antártica. Sobre todo desde la epidemia de Covid y el brote global de influenza aviar. “Además de las normas de distancia mínima para garantizar que los pasajeros y la fauna silvestre no entren en contacto directo, las medidas de bioseguridad en la zona del Tratado Antártico incluyen procedimientos de desinfección obligatorios antes y después de cada desembarque, utilizando desinfectantes biodegradables de amplio espectro”, indica la IAATO. Los turistas que desembarcan en la Antártida deben limpiar a fondo su calzado, su ropa y su equipo para desinfectar y eliminar cualquier material orgánico para evitar traer agentes patógenos. La detección de una cepa del virus de la gripe aviar H5N1 -altamente letal- en aves y mamíferos antárticos en los últimos años ha despertado las alarmas de la comunidad científica. “Si el contacto entre humanos y animales es masivo, eso aumenta el riesgo de que haya también la posibilidad de que se traspase un virus entre la población animal y la población humana”, teme Raúl Cordero. Un tema polémico La protección de la Antártida será nuevamente un tema de discusión en la conferencia internacional del Tratado Antártico, que tiene lugar este año en Japón. La limitación del número de turistas - tema que aún no genera consensos - y la suerte del pingüino emperador, una especie amenazada que las ONG ambientales llaman a proteger mejor, serán unos de los asuntos en la mesa de los representantes de los países firmantes del tratado.

President Donald Trump arrived in Beijing this week hoping China could help contain the escalating U.S.-Iran crisis, but the summit underscored how limited Beijing's influence over Tehran actually is. In Washington, many policymakers assume China can pressure Iran because it buys the vast majority of Iranian oil. But the reality is far more complicated, and there is little evidence the Iranian leadership would make major national security concessions at Beijing's request. William Figueroa, a leading Iran-China scholar at the University of Groningen in the Netherlands, joins Eric to unpack what U.S. officials misunderstand about China's relationship with Iran, why Beijing is reluctant to use its economic leverage aggressively, and how China itself is vulnerable to the broader economic fallout from the war.

In Wat blijft Audiodoc een portret van schrijver en historicus Annie Romein-Verschoor. Samen met haar man Jan Romein verwierf ze bekendheid met de publicatie De lage landen bij de zee (1934), een op marxistische leest geschoeide vaderlandse geschiedenis. Een jaar later promoveerde ze bij Albert Verwey op De Nederlandsche romanschrijfster na 1880, waarvan de handelseditie een jaar later verscheen onder de titel Vrouwenspiegel. Zelf was ze een vrouw vol paradoxen: vurig pleitbezorger voor de gelijkheid tussen man en vrouw, maar ze schoof haar eigen werk zonder mopperen opzij om haar man de ruimte te geven. Ze was de eerste die wetenschappelijk onderzoek deed naar vrouwenliteratuur in Nederland, maar tegelijk was zij ook de hardste criticus van het werk van (bejubelde) vrouwelijke auteurs. Het was ook haar man Jan Romein die vooral wordt gezien als degene die een belangrijke rol heeft gespeeld bij de publicatie van het dagboek van Anne Frank. Maar is dat wel het hele verhaal? Journalist Floortje Smit praat met: -Hedy D'Ancona, kritische bewonderaar van Annie, ze vroeg haar te schrijven voor Opzij; -Annie's kleindochters Merle Heinemeijer en Anne Romein; -Erica van Boven die werkte als hoogleraar Letterkunde aan de Open Universiteit en als hoofddocent Moderne Nederlandse letterkunde aan de Rijksuniversiteit in Groningen.
Wat als de machtigste man van de wereld lijdt aan een persoonlijkheidsstoornis? Te gast: Jules Tielens, psychiater en maker van de podcast Jules Kleedt Uit Psychiater Jules Tielens duidt Donald Trump als extreem narcistische, psychopatische leider die geen enkel gemeenschapsbelang kent. Arend Jan Boekestijn en Rob de Wijk leggen die persoonlijkheidsstructuur naast Trumps buitenlandse beleid, zijn omgang met oorlog en vrede en zijn minachting voor regels en instituties. De parallel met maffiamethoden, wraakzucht en zelfverheerlijking schetst een president die vooral ‘me, myself and I’ bestuurt. De tafel onderzoekt hoe zo’n persoonlijkheid het functioneren van democratie ondermijnt, in de Verenigde Staten én daarbuiten. De opkomst van sterke mannen als Trump en Poetin past in een bredere trend van verharding, teleurstelling in de politiek en onvermogen om crises als migratie, klimaat en Groningen nog geloofwaardig aan te pakken. Democratie leunt op redelijkheid, maar die raakt onder druk van emotie, onvrede en decadentie uitgehold. Boekestijn en De Wijk bespreken welke strategie Europa tegenover Trump nodig heeft als empathie en redelijkheid geen rol spelen. Tielens pleit voor harde macht, duidelijke grenzen en minder ‘pleasen’ door leiders als Mark Rutte om niet als speelbal van Washington te eindigen. De vergelijking met Hitler, Poetin en eerdere ontspoorde machthebbers maakt duidelijk wat er op het spel staat en waarom afwachten geen optie is.

Heritage is a hot topic in public debates today. Many politicians invoke it to exclude marginal groups from belonging to the national story. Yet, in the new two-volume resource for educators Creative and Inclusive Heritage Education, contributors explore how heritage can be used for inclusive experiences in the classroom. The open-access Handbook and an Activity Book provide educators--from high school teachers to university professors to museum guides--with the necessary theoretical tools and practical exercises turn heritage into a vehicle for self-awareness, collective meaning-making and conflict resolution. By helping educators to identify and counter exclusionary narratives, by stimulating their interest in their own histories and those of their students, and by using creative performance techniques, the handbook and the activity book allow educators to make the best of the social and educational value of heritage. In this interview with two of the editors, we discuss the ambitions and experiences of REBELAH, the European Union funded project behind these resources, which brought together creative artists, community organizers and academics in Spain, France, the Netherlands and Hungary.

This episode was recorded before the tragic news of Dr. Habermas' death. We deeply mourn his passing. Dr Habermas was a man who carefully and passionately pursued the truth, and so we hope that today's episode, in that spirit, we'll pay a small tribute to his legacy.What happens to our democracy when the "written word" is replaced by the "viral image," and reasoned debate is drowned out by the hunt for clicks? University of Groningen professor Dr. Peter Verovšek joins host PJ Wehry to discuss the legacy of Jürgen Habermas and how the digital age is transforming the democratic public sphere. Dr. Verovšek explores the core arguments of his book, Jürgen Habermas: Public Intellectual and Engaged Critical Theorist. They examine the philosophical evolution of Habermas' work, from his early critiques of post-war Germany to his recent concerns regarding the "new" structural transformation of the public sphere caused by social media. In this conversation they explore:The "Desk" of the Intellectual: Why Habermas views the written word as the primary tool for public engagement and why he performs his role as an academic from the "primary place" of his desk. The First Generation vs. Habermas: How Habermas moved Critical Theory away from the "negativism" of Adorno and Horkheimer toward a consistent account where theory and practice flow from one another. The "Life World" vs. Systems: Why we must protect our day-to-day cultural lives—the "life world"—from being "colonized" by the impersonal logics of money and administrative power. Social Media as a "Double-Edged Sword": How the internet turned every citizen into a potential author while simultaneously removing the editors and fact-checkers essential for democratic legitimacy. The Intellectual vs. The Guru: Why true public intellectuals act as "early warning systems" for society rather than "gurus" who monetize their following or tell people how to live. The Crisis of Digital Authorship: Why the shift from reasoned argumentation to "appearance" and "mobilization" makes it increasingly difficult for marginalized voices to be heard in a saturated media environment. This is a conversation for anyone interested in political philosophy and media ethics who wants to understand the forces reshaping our democracy and how to reclaim a meaningful public square.Make sure to check out Dr. Verovšek's book: Jürgen Habermas: Public Intellectual and Engaged Critical Theorist

In this episode you will discover: Identity Is Shaped in Interaction — Narrative identity forms and reforms through relationships and stories shared with others — making connection a core ingredient of recovery, not a bonus Visual Methods Unlock What Words Cannot — Collage-making, photos, and art give people with aphasia a pathway into identity work that talk alone can't always reach. Identity Reconstruction Is a Long Game — People continue navigating complex, shifting identities for years after stroke. Our systems need to follow them farther into that journey, not stop too soon. Sit on Your Hands and Truly Listen — The most powerful thing you can offer is unhurried, attentive presence. Learning to wait and watch — rather than fill the silence — is a skill worth deliberately practicing. If you've ever felt like there's more to aphasia care than the therapy protocol in front of you, or wondered what identity-centered practice actually looks like in the real world, this conversation will give you both the framework and the practical insights you need. Welcome to the Aphasia Access Aphasia Conversations Podcast. I'm Katie Strong from Central Michigan University and a member of the Aphasia Access Podcast Working Group — a community dedicated to supporting better aphasia care. Rianne Brinkman is a speech-language pathologist and linguist from the Netherlands whose PhD project "Who Am I Now?" explores identity changes in people with aphasia through storytelling and creative arts-based approaches. Before her doctoral work — supported by the Dutch NWO Teacher Research Grant — she spent years as a clinician in rehabilitation and aphasia centers, and that deep clinical foundation shapes everything she brings to her research. She teaches in the Speech and Language Therapy program at Hanze University of Applied Sciences in Groningen and conducts her research at the University of Humanistic Studies in Utrecht. Today's conversation feels especially personal to me. Like Rianne, I came to doctoral work after years of established clinical practice, and my own research centers on narrative identity and aphasia through the My Story Project and the PULSE framework. So, when she sought me out at a conference in 2019, I recognized immediately that we were kindred spirits working toward the same questions from different corners of the world. So, let's get into the conversation. Katie Strong: Well, before we dive into your work, I wanted to share something with our listeners. One of the things that drew me to this conversation is that we have a parallel story. We both came to do our PhDs after established clinical careers, and you're in the thick of that journey. I'd love to start with what made you decide to go back, and how did your clinical work shape what you wanted to pursue? Rianne Brinkman: I used to work in rehabilitation for a long time, and then I moved from one part of the Netherlands to another part, and there was not much work for me. So, I got the opportunity to help establish an aphasia center. And of course, if you look at the rehabilitation phase, that's far more deficit oriented, so that's very different than in the chronic phase, where an aphasia center comes into place. So, I really had to change my view of therapy. I had to establish a few groups on identity. I started reading on identity, on communicative participation, on how to do that in groups. So that's really where the interest came from. Katie Strong: I love hearing that. Sometimes as we go into a different phase or area of work, and it really re-shapes our thinking and how we engage with our clients or patients. Rianne Brinkman: Yeah, it does. And in those groups, I worked together a lot with creative therapists, and I learned so much from them, because then I realized that if you use narrative approaches, and you combine them with visual arts or arts therapy, that it can mean so much for somebody. They can get so many more means of expression. So, yeah, I learned a lot from that. Katie Strong: I love that! It is powerful. And I'm really looking forward to talking more about this. I was curious, you know, what the experience has been like from a clinician turned researcher, what you know, what's that actually been like for you? And has there been anything that surprised you most about the transition? Rianne Brinkman: I did not realize that much how much you yourself as a person influences the conversation with somebody with aphasia, you know that co-construction part. So that your identity aspects really influence how the conversation takes place and what somebody chooses to tell you or not. So that is really momentary, and so it's just a snapshot, really, when you do this. So, I became really aware of that. But also, your own norms and values and the way you listen and all those sorts of things. It's just a different way of doing therapy. And then you're doing it as research which is different. I think that's one thing, sometimes I'm a little bit too much the therapist, so I really have to be a researcher again, you know? So, you change between those roles. Katie Strong: Yes, it is a shift, right? Rianne Brinkman: Yeah, exactly, exactly. Katie Strong: Yeah. And thinking about how those two roles are different or powerful, sometimes combined. Well, let's talk a little bit about the work that you're doing. And I want to acknowledge that what we're talking about today really all comes out of your doctoral journey, which is really remarkable. I thought we could first talk about your 2025 scoping review that really mapped the landscape of what we know about identity changes in aphasia, and it also laid the groundwork for everything that followed. Could you walk us through that narrative identity model that came out of the review? Rianne Brinkman: Yeah. That was quite complex, because there's so much written about identity, and everybody defines it slightly in a different way, or uses different words. So, what we tried to do is really get a grip on that literature to see what was written on identity changes in aphasia, and what kind of theory was used. And what we saw was that everything is from a social constructionist perspective, really. But then there are many different philosophers and different authors that write about identity. So, what we tried to do was because, of course, Barbara Shadden, she's very foundational in this work. With her colleagues, she created the four domain interdisciplinary framework. So, we tried to use that in the model as one of the foundations. And then, of course, the work of Paul Ricoeur, who's a French philosopher who writes about that you only shape your identity through interaction with other people which gives meaning to the stories you share with other people. And the work of Bamberg, and he talks about dilemmatic spaces. So what it means, really, is that I think identity, you only shape in interaction, and we tried to visualize that in the model. So, there's an "I" part, and that's about you, the personal domains, and there's the "we" part, and that's about the social domains. We tried to visualize how those domains interact, including temporality, because you shape your identity in the here and now, but also through time. And then in the middle of the model, there's a head with interconnected gears, and that's where it all comes together. That's you at your identity, your narrative identity, a specific point in time. So that's the model in a nutshell. And then you've got, of course, all those personal domains, like your biography, agency and power, communicative abilities, your roles you fulfill in life. And then the social domains are, like your social situation, your cultural background, society and all of that works together, informing, shaping your identity. Katie Strong: It's powerful work, and it is complex. I appreciate the work that you led to be able to assimilate and give us this model for us to be really thinking about narrative identity in a way that takes all of those big thought leaders and helps it become more approachable to those of us that are interested in narrative identity as researchers, but also as clinicians. Rianne Brinkman: That's great. Thank you. Katie Strong: Thank you for that work. And then you have another recent paper. Congratulations, by the way! That paper just came out earlier this year in 2026 and I guess I should say to the listeners, we'll have both articles linked in the show notes, as well as some other resources that will be interesting to explore if you're into this topic. This 2026, article is really the first of its kind to look at identity in this early stage, six to eight weeks after admission to rehabilitation. So, I was hoping you could talk with us about who were these people and what were you doing together in these sessions? Rianne Brinkman: Yeah. So, it's the first session of a longitudinal study, so I'm following those people over two years. And so, there are 22 people with aphasia. Unfortunately, two of them couldn't continue as one of them, I couldn't organize the reflection session, and one of them, I just couldn't reach anyone. But the other 20 people are still in the study, which is really amazing! Katie Strong: That is really amazing! Rianne Brinkman : Yeah, that's really nice. They're all middle aged people who range in age from their 30s to their 60s until 67. They also have different severities of aphasia. Some people were still clinical inpatient, some of them already were outpatient. And then I tried to elicit their story with visual participatory methods in combination with the narrative approach. So those sessions are quite long, sometimes two and a half to three hours, so it's a lot of time. It's really nice to just sit with them and connect. During the first session I did collage making. I just took a lot of magazines with me and scissors and glue and everything, and then we just sat down. And then I just let them start leafing through those magazines and see what appealed to them, what kind of images, what kind of words, what it's reflected about them. And then they created their collage. And then, of course, you look at what kind of images do they choose, but also, how do they position them? How do they create their collage. Is there some kind of reason behind things? You discuss that, but also how do they get across what they do? You know, some people think for a long time and are hesitant to act. Some people start straight away. Some people tear the images. Some people cut them really neatly. So, everybody behaves in a different way, and that reflects something on your identity also. So, I always ask questions about that. And then when we finish the work, a proxy comes in and we reflect on the work of the person with the face yet together to get perspective. Katie Strong: That's really fantastic. So, you're, you're coming into either the hospital room or their home, is that where the work is done? Rianne Brinkman: Yeah, so usually the speech therapist, who's in charge books a room for me in the rehabilitation center. Or I just go to the homes of the people. Katie Strong: Well, I'm excited to talk about what you found out, but, but before we get into that, I just have to ask about the tattoo, because it's an integral part of this work. And it stopped me when I read it. And the title from the paper comes from the tattoo on one of your participants. So, could you talk to us about that? Rianne Brinkman: Of course. There's one lady, and I was analyzing the session, because, of course, she will need to transcribe them. And then I saw her doing her hair in a ponytail, and I saw her arm, and I thought, "Oh, she's got a really nice tattoo there." So, I sent her a text, and I said, "What does that tattoo mean to you? What is it? "And then she told me that it was a tattoo that said, leave the thorn, enjoy the rose. And that's from a music play from Handel. And her father really enjoyed that. But her father passed away, so that tattoo was a memory tribute to her father, but also it reflects how she sees life, that you have to try to stay optimistic whatever happens. And I think that voice of positivity is a very important voice in all the stories of all the participants. Everybody said that. So, I thought, oh yeah. Even when something really bad happens, bad happens, people try to stay positive. So, it reflected a very important, yeah, result of the data, really. So, I thought, I'm going to make that the title. Katie Strong: It really is beautiful. So, so the rose bush. You develop this beautiful rose bush image to represent what you found across the participants. Walk us through that. And what does the rose bush capture about what identity looks like at that early stage of recovery? Rianne Brinkman: So, we used different methodology of analysis. So we listened to the voices that were reflected in the stories of people with aphasia, and then we realized that there are many contrapuntal voices, so it's very ambiguous. Really, very complex. So, we thought, we cannot just do a thematic analysis. We have to show that one experience can be both positive or negative or whatever. And that's why we came to those tensions and in that rose bush, so at the stem you see, for example, where you see the branches, and at the stem it's, for example, the tension between disconnection and connection. And connection is at the rose and disconnection at the stem, another tension is agency and disempowerment, and another one is living loss and personal growth. And then what we found was that people had coping voices and affirmative voices, but also challenging voices. And what we did was we put the challenging voices at the thorns and the coping and affirmative voices at the roses to reflect that they used that both to make sense of aphasia and of their identity, really. And so, they were moving along those branches, really. Sometimes they felt connected. Sometimes disconnected. Sometimes they grieved. Sometimes they cope by staying positive or focusing on the present. So that's how we tried to show that it's very complex that people move along those tensions, that it's never static. And those three existential tensions were really very tangible in the data. Katie Strong: It's just such powerful work. When I was reading it and I. I was talking with one of my students, she was saying she actually became pretty emotional when she was reading about all of that as well. It's really, really powerful work. And what I find so interesting, and you mentioned it earlier, but this role of the visual methods, the collage making, images as a way into identity. Could you paint a picture of what that actually looked like to sit with a participant in those sessions? Rianne Brinkman: Yeah. Well you really have to sit on your hands. And I learned a lot from my colleagues, creative therapists, because when I first did this…because sometimes people feel a bit awkward. You know that they all of a sudden have to draw something, or that they have to cut images from a magazine. And then you want to do something to help them feel less awkward. You shouldn't really. You should just let that happen and let that session develop. That's very important. So, I really learned to just tell them, "you are looking the magazines and you see what appeals to you. And I'll just give you some time to get into that" and then you just wait. And while you're waiting, you can just see, for example, if somebody finds it really hard, and then you can also see how long they look at an image, for example, if it means something to them. Or they stop on a certain page all the time. And then you can help them a little bit and say, "Oh, you're looking a long time at this image. Maybe, is this something that appeals to you for some reason?" And then you can help them. But also, very often, people just know what to do. I don't know. It's very intuitive. So first, they don't know what they will choose, or they don't know what kind of collage it will be. But it comes to them for some reason. Katie Strong: Yeah, it's interesting. I think we had talked about this previously, but a person with aphasia and research collaborator that I worked with, Todd Berreth, and I did some, we called it. We the "cut-up" style using images to be able create a story about yourself and integrate those pieces. And it was so interesting to watch people who came to our workshop, and just as you're saying, like how they chose and what they did. Some people were very, "I know what I'm doing", and others were hesitant, or wanted to take their work home before finalizing it and everything in between. Rianne Brinkman: Yeah, that's very that's very nice. You really get that extra layer, I think. And also, when people really can't talk very well, you know, they can maybe say yes or no and sometimes a word, you know, then it's very hard to talk about your identity. Using images then that really helps. So, I remember one lady, she couldn't talk very well, but she was very creative. And she started, you know, with those magazines, and then straight away, there was that butterfly symbolizing her mom, connection to her mother. And maybe, I think we would never have reached that trying to do this in words. So, yeah, very powerful. Katie Strong: Thank you. Another thing I wanted to talk about is that you use something called the Listening Guide as part of your analysis. And I'm thinking that a lot of our listeners may not have come across this before. Could you give a sense of what it really means to listen in the way that that approach demands? Rianne Brinkman: Yes. So, what you do is, first you well, you listen to the plot of the story. So, you listen to, what does this story contain? What's the big line of the story? And you write that down. And then you look again at the data, and then you look at all the "I" positions and I also look at the "me" positions. So, everything that's "I" and "me". You get that out and you create "I-poems". We created all those "I-poems" about certain experiences. I could give maybe an example of one. This one is a bit connected to, on the one hand, feeling very sad that somebody suffered from stroke and aphasia, and on the other hand, tried to stay positive. So, I've got one here. I was crying last weekend. I realized, Oh no, this happened to me. I have to deal with this. I have changed. I also stayed positive that I will be okay. I just say it will be okay and I won't think negatively. So, then you get an "I-poem" that reflects different voices, like, in this case, the voice of grief and positivity. Then you look at those voices. In the next step, you look at the contrapuntal voices, and like grief and positivity are very contrapuntal. So very often, I think also we as human beings do the same, you know, you talk to yourself in your head, you know. And you've got all those different positions towards an experience. And those are the contrapuntal voices. And what we tried to do, so we adapted this approach by Gilligan and Eddy, and we tried to incorporate the visuals, the visual data, and also embodiment, because sometimes people with aphasia do very interesting things. They give a lot of information, non-verbally. Also you want to be sure that you really understood the person, so checking if you're on the same page is very important also. Sometimes you have to interpret what somebody means, or you have to give words to what somebody says as a researcher, which is the ethical part, of course, which is hard sometimes, but you can't avoid that. So, yeah, so that's how we integrated all the data. And tried to get those stories out and get the depth of the depth of the story. Katie Strong: I love it. That's really fascinating. And the "I-poems" are really powerful. And I think we'll put a link to the Listening Guide reference in the show notes if people are interested in learning more about that technique. You mentioned earlier that this is a longitudinal study that you're undertaking for your dissertation work, which is pretty amazing. I mean, very amazing. And you're, you're two years into this longitudinal study, and this paper we've been talking about is the six to eight week snapshot. What are you most curious about as you continue following those participants over time? And also, what do you want clinicians who are listening today to take away from what you've already found? Rianne Brinkman: Tomorrow, I'm doing another two sessions. One of them is the last session with somebody with P5 and with another person, P4. I think I am about I'm halfway through. Well, I'm almost, I think I've got another year to go to have collected all the data. And what I see really is that it's very clear that identity formation and reconstructing, renegotiating your identity, is a very long and complex process, and that at different points in time, different things happen. You see different patterns also along those moments in time that I'm doing the sessions. What I also realize, I'm not sure how that is in states, but in the Netherlands, I think communicative access, for example, if you want to start working again, you know, to understand what all the letters you get the process, and that it's very hard. Also in health care. And people are really struggling with that, and get really a lot of stress from this, and that it's very unclear often, and that people feel very uncertain. And I think we've got to realize that we should take a longer role in this. You know, not stop too soon, or just at least keep, well, the finger on the pulse, like we say in Netherlands, just keep following people. I think that's very important. And I also realized that the combination of a narrative approach with visual participatory methods really gives you a lot of information. And I also think the listening skills, to really listen to that story and try to get that story out, that gives you such a powerful connection with somebody. So, every time I see them again, I'm really curious, and they're really happy to share their story again and to show me where they are at that point in time. Yeah, and then I'm working together with colleagues with aphasia also, which is really great because they learn from each other. You know, that's nice. Katie Strong: I love all of that. And I think maybe one of the things I'd like to reiterate, or we could talk about a little bit more, is that what I think I hear you're saying is we know aphasia is a chronic change to their life and the way they communicate and how they can connect with others, and ultimately how that impacts who they are, as people, or their identity. And our health care systems, I know in the US, we're set up for lots of intervention, or maybe the most that they're going to get, even if it's just a little, early in that phase, and then having them have to navigate that process on their own, as they become farther from having the stroke. And this work showcases their journey along the way. But I just wonder is there something that a clinician who's listening could implement or do with their client, wherever they're seeing them, in the journey? Rianne Brinkman: I think using creative arts is always a good idea. You could keep it really simple. You could just ask them to bring a special object or to show a photo that they're proud of, or make a collage, or use Legos to build with. So, I think that's a good possibility. And also, I think a peer contact is very important. So do that together with a little group or people that are interested in exploring and sharing their stories. And I think we should realize that it's important to check in. So even if you finish therapy with somebody, then it's a good thing after a few months, to ask how they how they are, and stand still with the process. That's something very important also. Katie Strong: And sometimes harder to do than it would seem, but I think, as you're talking it seems like connecting people with peers and following up. I know here in the states, making sure they're a part of a support group so that they can have a community to be able to connect with. Rianne Brinkman: Yes, because what I've seen a lot is that after a while, there's that phase of uncertainty, really. You don't know if you can get your work back, maybe in a different form, maybe not. And then there's no therapy anymore. And then how are you going to navigate all that uncertainty? And I think that usually speech therapy has stopped. I think then it's hard, of course, because it's not always doable, but I think it would be a very good moment. So, after eight months to really start up something again and then really discuss the identity of somebody. Really use narrative approaches to help them renegotiate all those dilemmas that they're experiencing. Katie Strong: Yeah, and certainly, I guess you know, advocacy work on big levels to recognize that people should be able to access therapy whenever they feel like they need it. Rianne Brinkman: Yeah, definitely. Katie Strong: We've got some work to do. I appreciate this conversation, and I just wanted to let the listeners know that Rianne and I have been in conversation since we met at the International Aphasia Rehabilitation Conference in Philadelphia in 2019 and what started as a conversation in a parking lot I might add, has grown into some real research and educational collaboration. And Rianne, together with Sabine Corsten and Bianca Spelker, we have been developing and studying training programs for future SLPs in life storytelling approaches across three countries, so the US, Germany and the Netherlands and Rianne, I was hoping you could tell our listeners a bit about what we're actually building together and what you're learning from that work about what students need most before they walk into the room and try to do this identity centered practice, style of work. Rianne Brinkman: Well, we based it a lot on your work, of course, and the My Story project and Narraktiv from Sabine. So, Katie you started this in the US, and then we thought, "oh, this would be great in the Netherlands and in Germany also." The students first of course, need to be trained in supportive communication techniques, because that's very important for them. I think in the Netherlands, it's maybe a little bit different than in the States and in Germany, because I work with students that are still in their bachelors. So they've had only one year of theory, and they haven't done their training or internship yet. Although some of them have. And then you see a very different student. So, but I've got the students that are really for the first time meeting someone with aphasia, for example. And they're very scared, because they think, "Oh, am I able to adapt my communication and what if somebody's going to cry, or what if that story is really going to touch me?" So, you really need to prepare them with a lot of information about what narrative identity is and also what identity work entails. We also must train on how you can really, truly listen. Active listening skills from that nice paper you wrote with Barbara Shadden on the power of story and taking the PULSE of people with aphasia. Appreciating their uniqueness, And also what we do in the Netherlands is practicing with them how they use visual methods, creative methods, to use in their sessions with the people with aphasia. And then once they start, I always say to them, "Well, at least the first session maybe is very exciting, but you're there, you're listening, you're engaged. That's already means so much to somebody if you do that, if you truly listen." And then after one session, they realize that, and then it goes really nicely. Katie Strong: There's this that feeling very uncomfortable and not sure where to go. And then being able to let that person with aphasia kind of take you on that journey. Rianne Brinkman: Yeah. That's so nice because it contributes to both, to the person with aphasia who participates, and also to the students and their development. Katie Strong: I strongly believe you can't do identity, story based work without being influenced yourself, by the work Rianne Brinkman: Yeah, definitely. Katie Strong: Well, before we wrap up, I would be remiss if we didn't talk about some tips or strategies, resources or readings for clinicians who are interested in implementing identity, focused story work into their practice. So, can you share a few things with us? Rianne Brinkman: Definitely. Yeah. When I started this work, I really liked the work of Carol Pound and her colleagues, and that's a book called Beyond Aphasia. It's very interesting theoretically, but also very practical. It really helped me to develop methods for my aphasia group to talk about identity. I really think that's a very good book. And then also the book of Barbara Shadden and her colleagues on Neurogenic Communication Disorders. There are some really practical cases in there, and it's very broad. It's not only about aphasia, but also a different neurogenic disorders. And I what I really like is it's such a nuanced theoretical perspective; they gather lots of theory, but they do that in such a good way. It's a very book. Katie Strong: Yeah, I agree, both Carol Pound and Barbara Shadden's work. It's approachable, but it does have the meat of the theory in it. Rianne Brinkman: Yeah. So that's helped me a lot. And what I said earlier, the paper you wrote with Barbara on the power of story, I think that's very helpful to better understand what happens when you use narrative interventions, and what kind of interventions there are. And then, of course, the different interventions, like the work of Sabine Corsten on Narraktiv in your work, on My Story. And I have a book but it's only in Dutch. I attempted to share all those methods I created for the group, and it's very practice based. So that's why I started later on my PhD. But those practice-based methods are combined in a book, but it's only in Dutch. Katie Strong: It looks fabulous. I'm not able to access it with my limited language skills, but we'll make sure to have all of those references listed in the show notes so people can explore and take a look around it. And I think you know your book that you're talking about, Rianne even though it is all in Dutch, so maybe not accessible to everyone, but it's got beautiful graphics and photos and things like that you can get an essence of what it is that you're expressing. Rianne Brinkman: It's all, it's all painted or drawn by Reno Hubers. He's a Dutch person with aphasia, and he was in one of my groups. And then every time I was reading about something, he was just drawing it or painting it. And I thought, "Oh, I really need to ask him help me make the images for this book." So, it was together with him that we created this. Katie Strong: Beautiful. And what a great story. Thank you for being here with me today. And I don't know if you have anything else you want to add before we wrap up our conversation. Rianne Brinkman: Well, thank you for inviting me. But also, I want to say thank you to my team, because they really stimulate me to think differently about identity. I've got a very interprofessional team, and that's really helpful. And also, of course, our identity group meetings with you and Sabine and Bianca and Barbara. That's very helpful to shape my thinking on identity. And, of course, the participants of my research who are so open and vulnerable and want to share their stories. I would like to acknowledge that that's very important. Katie Strong: For sure! We sure appreciate you sharing your experiences with us and look forward to what's to come from the longitudinal study. We wish you well in your studies as well. Thanks Rianne. What strikes me most about this conversation is how Rianne's work reminds us that identity reconstruction isn't a detour from aphasia care — it is aphasia care. And the tools she brings, the collage, the listening guide, the willingness to simply sit and wait, are more accessible than we might think. What began as a chance conversation in a parking lot in Philadelphia in 2019 has grown into something neither of us anticipated. Rianne, together with colleagues Sabine Corsten and Bianca Spelker, and alongside my own work through the Strong Story Lab, we have been developing and studying training programs for future clinicians in life storytelling approaches — across the US, Germany, and the Netherlands. It is the kind of international collaboration that only happens when people are genuinely working toward the same thing. On behalf of Aphasia Access, thank you for listening.

Afspraken maken met justitie in ruil voor strafvermindering, dat gebeurt steeds vaker. Zo ook in de zaak rondom de kunstroof in het Drents Museum. Strafrechtadvocaat Zahra Boufadiss over deze zogenoemde procesafspraken. Verkeersboetes leiden tot een verergering van de schuldenproblematiek. Ze zijn veel te hoog. Zo moeten mensen die zijn betrapt voor appen achter het stuur meer dan 400 euro betalen. Enkele deskundigen vinden dit te gortig en trokken naar de Tweede Kamer. En de provincie Groningen gaat proberen om Jacobskruiskruid uit te roeien met elektrische stroomstoten. Koeien en paarden worden ziek van de plant en boeren willen al jaren dat er wat aan wordt gedaan, maar volgens plantenbioloog Casper van der Kooi is het gevaar niet zo groot:

(01:44) Deze zondag mogen de Hongaren naar de stembus, en verrassend genoeg staat Viktor Orbán niet aan kop. De Minister-president van Hongarije verscheen in 1989 ten tonele als jonge oppositieleider, die tegen de Sovjets in pleitte voor nationale onafhankelijkheid. Ruim drie decennia later lijkt diezelfde erfenis hem in te halen, nu demonstranten zijn eigen woorden tegen hem gebruiken en zijn relatie met Rusland onder een vergrootglas ligt. Wordt dit het einde van Orbán? Cultuurhistoricus Krisztina Lajosi-Moore belt in vanuit Boedapest, historicus Marijn Kruk schuift aan in de studio. (17:03) Hij begon als een leider die wilde dat de wereld Rusland serieus nam, en eindigde met een oorlogsverklaring aan het Westen, gewapend met tsarenmythen en orthodoxe symboliek. Beatrice de Graaf, hoogleraar Geschiedenis van de Internationale Betrekkingen in Utrecht, en Niels Drost, Rusland-analist bij Clingendael, zagen hoe Poetin vanaf 2000 steeds radicaler werd. Ze zijn te gast met hun nieuwe boek Poetins tsaristische droom – Geschiedenis als wapen in de Russische politiek. (33:40) Je hebt Mekka, Jeruzalem, Rome en… Ommen. Vanaf zo'n honderd jaar geleden kwamen hier duizenden theosofen en esoterici tezamen voor de jaarlijkse Sterkampen, om daar te luisteren naar hun nieuwe wereldleider: Krishnamurti. Hoe kwam deze Goeroe in Ommen terecht, en hoe was het voor de Ommenaren om opeens in een bedevaartsoord te wonen? Na jaren onderzoek schreef Rick Nieman het boek De goeroe en de baron, en over die zoektocht maakte zijn partner Sacha de Boer een podcast. Beide journalisten zijn bij ons te gast. (47:36) Elke week bespreken we historische tips met afwisselend Nadia Bouras, Wim Berkelaar, Bart Funnekotter, Sanne Frequin, en Fresco Sam-Sin. Deze week is de beurt aan Nadia Bouras. Zij bespreekt twee boeken en een podcast: * Het Rode Noorden (https://npo.nl/luister/podcasts/1373-het-rode-noorden) - Kim van den Bergh * Grenzend aan liefde - Karin Amatmoekrim * Yalla - Hasna El Maroudi (59:32) Slechts één gehaktbal per week: de vernieuwde Schijf van Vijf is strenger dan ooit. Maar het land laten eten wat het moet, blijkt al sinds 1953 een vergezicht. Voedselhistoricus Jon Verriet onderzocht de geschiedenis van het Voedingscentrum en is bij ons te gast. (01:08:48) OVT Doc: De belofte van het zout Dat er kolenmijnen in Limburg waren en dat er gas in de grond in Groningen zit, dat weten we. Maar dat er in Nederland ook zout wordt gewonnen, is veel minder bekend. Toch gebeurt dat al sinds vlak na de Eerste Wereldoorlog in Twente en sinds de jaren vijftig ook in Oost-Groningen. En daar, in Oost-Groningen, ligt die zoutwinning nu onder vuur. De provincie voert een rechtszaak en bewoners komen in verzet. En dat terwijl de vondst van zout in de naoorlogse periode werd gezien als dé oplossing voor de armoede en achterstand van het gebied. Zout was namelijk het witte goud. Katinka Baehr en Jille Smilda maakten een documentaire over de zoutgeschiedenis van Oost-Groningen. Met Martijn Folkers van RTV Noord, die al jaren in het zoutdossier zit, praten we na de documentaire verder over wat er nu speelt.

Zijn er miljarden aan belastinggeld onterecht uitgekeerd aan slachtoffers van de aardbevingen in Groningen? In geen enkel ander land ter wereld is er zo veel gecompenseerd (zo'n 3,8 miljard) voor zulke kleine aardbevingen. Een feitenvrij compensatiecircus, aldus journalist van de Correspondent Jesse Frederik. Uit zijn onderzoek blijkt dat het meeste geld de afgelopen jaren is gegaan naar gebieden met de minste bevingen.

Door Trumps oorlog in Iran dreigt de grootste energiecrisis ooit. Het Internationaal Energieagentschap slaat alarm en waarschuwt voor schaarste, stijgende prijzen en geopolitieke spanningen. Maar Nederland kiest ervoor om voorlopig niets te doen. Sterker nog: we sluiten onze eigen gasvelden.Maarten van Rossem vindt dat een volkomen stompzinnig besluit, vertelt hij in gesprek met Tom Jessen. Het dichtgooien van de gasputten in Groningen is een strategische fout. Er zit nog honderden miljarden kubieke meters gas in de grond. Goed voor 30 jaar aan energie. Nederland is voor zo'n 80% afhankelijk van energie uit het buitenland. Waarom zou je die buffer opgeven in een tijd van mondiale onzekerheid?In deze aflevering:- De grootste energiecrisis ooit dreigt- Waarom Nederland tóch gasvelden sluit- Hoe energie (weer) een wapen wordtBekijk hier de video van deze aflevering.

The reason why we are speaking to him today is because, for nearly 50 years, he has devoted himself to the lives and works of the pioneering 20th century German-born artists – who lived in the US for much of their adult life – Josef and Anni Albers. As the Executive Director of their foundation, Weber has written extensively on them, bringing their work to the fore, and championing and preserving their legacy. While Josef Albers is a trailblazing artist whose theories on colour, and teaching methods, have shaped much of contemporary art, it is the brilliant Anni Albers who we will be discussing today. Born in 1899, and a student of the Bauhaus and a teacher at Black Mountain College, Albers is known for spellbinding weavings that span large-scale practical wall-coverings to smaller thread-based works that she infused with geometric, rhythmic patterning and electric colouring. The first artist working in textile to be honoured with a major solo exhibition at the Museum of Modern Art, and a celebrated writer known for her books – On Designing / On Weaving – Albers, it is fair to say brought the medium into the modernist world, while also deeply rooting it in ancient textile traditions from around the world. I am delighted to be speaking to Weber ahead of the publication of his extraordinary new book, Anni Albers: A Life, out this April, that charts the life of this artist who he was lucky enough to call a close friend, and who we are lucky to now witness in a new way thanks to the extensive personal stories he has gathered from the many times they would meet, whereby he would rush to write down everything she said verbatim, so we could one day have this extraordinary record.
