Heute freue ich mich, Martin Kranz als Gast begrüßen zu dürfen. Martin ist seit rund zehn Jahren im Bereich UI- und UX-Design tätig und bringt eine spannende Kombination aus Agentur- und Inhouse-Erfahrung mit. Seine Karriere begann im klassischen Grafik- und Webdesign, bevor er sich ganz dem UX-Feld verschrieben hat – zunächst in Softwareentwicklungsunternehmen und seit 2022 bei RINGANA. Bei RINGANA startete Martin als UI/UX Designer und ist mittlerweile Teamleiter des E-Commerce & Digital Projects Teams sowie Product Manager Digital.

Hello & welcome to the next guest, Julius Kahleis! Julius ist Mitgründer von koelnistkool, einer der bekanntesten Instagram-Seiten Kölns, und der Kreativagentur KRANZ.life. In dieser Folge sprechen wir mit ihm über den ungewöhnlichen Weg von einer lokalen Meme-Seite zu einer kreativen Agentur mit echten Kunden, großen Kampagnen und einem klaren Markenprofil. Julius erzählt, wie aus einem ursprünglich reinen Spaßprojekt plötzlich ein ernstzunehmendes Geschäftsmodell wurde – und warum es irgendwann notwendig war, koelnistkool und KRANZ.life strategisch voneinander zu trennen. Wir sprechen darüber, wie man es schafft, mit viralen Inhalten und Popkultur-Feeling die Aufmerksamkeit großer Unternehmen zu gewinnen, und wie daraus bezahlte Projekte werden. Dabei geht es auch um die Frage, wie Werbung heute funktionieren kann, ohne sich wie Werbung anzufühlen – ein Prinzip, das KRANZ.life konsequent verfolgt. Außerdem werfen wir einen Blick hinter die Kulissen ihrer Kampagne für den Flughafen Köln/Bonn, die mit dem German Brand Award 2025 ausgezeichnet wurde, und sprechen über die Herausforderungen, Learnings und Entwicklungen, die mit dem Aufbau einer eigenen Agentur einhergehen. Eine inspirierende Folge für alle, die aus Content mehr machen wollen – und sich fragen, wie man den Sprung von der Community zur Kreativwirtschaft schafft.

Is there collusion in our field? Do we have elites running wild, making sure that their work gets published whilst the rest of us struggles to find room to publish our own work? And are we handling conflicts of interest that may exist between authors and the editors who are charged with making decisions about their work? These are serious questions. They target the core of our field, they have the potential to undermine – or bolster – the legitimacy of all our scholarship, and they pose serious material consequences for all scholars, their careers and ultimately their lives. We came across a new paper that reports an analysis of the potential conflict of interest issues in academic publishing, and we use this paper to reflect on our experiences as both authors and editors. We try to draw a few conclusions and recommendations about how we can raise awareness and build institutional trust to minimize if not avoid any questionable or outright unethical practices in publishing.

In 2010, the Association for Information Systems formed a special interest group () to nurture an international community of academics that study the role of digital technologies in fostering environmentally, economically and socially sustainable development. Fifteen years later, we sit down with , the current SIGGreen president, to reflect on the progress we have made. What do we know about how digital technologies help greening our planet? What efforts in empirical, theoretical, and design work is still needed? Is our role to understand the role of digital technologies or do we need to push and enact change ourselves? We conclude that environmental questions and problems are now firmly on the radar screen of our discipline but more work needs to be done for information systems academics to transform the way we think about and use digital technologies.  Episode reading list Corbett, J., & Mellouli, S.

On episode 150 of This Week in Space, it's our Listener Special edition! Not only do we answer your questions and respond to your comments, but we lined up a number of your most tummy-tickling space jokes in the humor shooting gallery. This one is more fun than wearing new shoes! Join us as we talk about asteroid 2024YR4, the Space Launch System's prospects, Katy Perry in space, the newest lunar missions, the X-37B "secret shuttle," Apollo-era flight director Gene Kranz and astronaut Buzz Aldrin, solar sails, the cage match between Elon and astronaut Andreas Morgenson, and the best meteor shower of the year! Headlines Asteroid 2024 YR4 no longer a threat - The Earth-shattering asteroid that briefly had a record high 3.2% chance of impact has been downgraded to a 1 in 20,000 risk after pre-discovery data was analyzed, sparing Barstow and the rest of Earth. SLS faces uncertain future - Even long-time supporters like Scott Pace (former National Space Council secretary) are suggesting an "off-ramp" from the SLS rocket to commercial providers, signaling a potential shift in NASA's approach to lunar missions. Lunar Trailblazer mission communication issues - The recently launched lunar orbiter briefly lost contact after launch on a Falcon 9 but has since established a heartbeat. Blue Origin announces all-female crew for NS-31 - The upcoming mission will feature singer Katy Perry, Lauren Sanchez, and four other accomplished women, marking the first all-female crew since Valentina Tereshkova's solo flight in the 1960s. Blue Ghost lunar landing imminent - Firefly Aerospace's first moon lander is scheduled to touch down on March 2nd, joining two other private landers (from Intuitive Machines and ispace) headed to the moon in the coming weeks. Listener Questions X-37B space plane purpose - The hosts discussed the secretive Space Force vehicle that's been in orbit for 908 days, likely testing technologies like hall thrusters and conducting reconnaissance. Elon Musk vs. astronauts controversy - The hosts addressed the Twitter/X confrontation between Elon Musk and astronauts (including Andreas Morgensen) regarding claims that astronauts were "stranded" on the ISS for political reasons. Gene Kranz's impact during Apollo - Rod shared his experience interviewing the legendary flight director, highlighting Kranz's "dictum" speech after the Apollo 1 fire and his transition to a more reflective persona later in life. Meeting Buzz Aldrin - The hosts described Aldrin as passionate, technically brilliant, and candid about his personal struggles, with Tariq sharing how Aldrin was the subject of his first professional space article in 1999. Solar sail technology potential - They discussed the success of Planetary Society's LightSail 2 and other solar sail missions, lamenting that the technology hasn't been utilized more extensively for deep space missions. Best meteor showers to observe - The hosts recommended the Perseids (August), Geminids (December), and Leonids (November) as the most impressive annual meteor showers, emphasizing the importance of dark skies for optimal viewing. Convincing moon landing deniers - They discussed the challenge of persuading conspiracy theorists, citing evidence including Soviet tracking confirmation and modern lunar reconnaissance photos showing Apollo landing sites.
