Viaggio nella città finlandese di Oulu, affacciata sul mar Baltico vicino al Circolo Polare Artico, che si prepara a vivere un anno eccezionale come capitale europea della cultura 2026 coniugando tradizione locale, creatività contemporanea, partecipazione pubblica e innovazione tecnologica.Un tempo nota come “la Silicon Valley del Nord” - perché negli anni ‘80 la Nokia vi installò il suo quartier generale trasformandola in un polo tecnologico di livello mondiale – una ventina d'anni fa la città ha vissuto una crisi industriale gravissima, ritrovandosi improvvisamente con migliaia di disoccupati e un'economia locale da reinventare. Ma proprio da quella frattura è nato un percorso di trasformazione virtuoso, con il passaggio da una monocultura industriale a un ecosistema più aperto, fatto di startup, creatività, tecnologia, cultura digitale e partecipazione civica. Il titolo di capitale europea della cultura 2026 rappresenta un riconoscimento simbolico e concreto: Oulu racconta come una città colpita dal declino di un colosso tecnologico abbia saputo ripensare la propria identità, trasformando una crisi industriale in un progetto di futuro. L'ampio programma di iniziative di quest'anno si propone, tra le altre cose, di valorizzare le tradizioni e la cultura dei sámi, il popolo indigeno che abita le regioni artiche.

持之以恆,羅文宏如願以償當成了「長號音樂家」,他有恆心地,長期地堅持下去,不輕易放棄,用毅力持續不斷的精進,才能拿到在北芬蘭 Oulu 市立交響樂團的永久正式樂師職位。從小就喜歡在街頭看著舞龍舞獅,鑼鼓聲,鈸音震撼的律動,驅動著他對音樂的著迷,一次家人帶著當時念小學的 文宏去看了一場「星際大戰」,那個厲害的音樂把他一整個吸進了音樂的世界,他進入了學校的管樂社,從社團開始就決心要念到可以吹出「星際大戰」。文宏的音樂夢,就像是仙履奇緣一樣的奇幻和神奇。 他生長在一個多元文化的馬來西亞,家裡講的客家話是來自中國的廣東赤溪,學校講的是馬來語和華語。 身為長子的他,從小就被期待能衣帛接棒曾祖父拓荒下南洋打出天下的製鞋工廠。在馬來西亞雙語的學校系統,他念的華語獨立中學每一個學科要考兩次,不但要應付學校考的華語考試,還要準備政府考的馬來語考試,唸書考試剩下來了了無幾寶貴的時間,才能碰到他心愛的樂器,但他沒有因此放棄。他先從小號開始吹,後來吹到長號,那個沒有按鍵的樂器,要有足夠的肺活量,一隻手要一直提著銅管樂器,另外一隻手要伸縮拉出音準,還要不能緊張,要放鬆才能吹出好聽的聲音,才能吹出他要的星際大戰。文宏吹出來的表現,就連期待他能繼承家業的一家人都支持他。出國闖天下,就像是他家族的 DNA,大學年紀的他就決定出國到台灣念音樂,後來考到德國繼續深造,碩士一畢業就拿到機會難得的芬蘭職缺。現在的 文宏,已經喜歡上芬蘭的生活模式,專注音樂之餘,有更多時間留給自己和家人,「專注,放鬆,和持之以恆」,2022 年他就在北芬蘭的 Oulu 市立交響樂團的電影主題音樂會裡,就真的吹成了他要的「星際大戰」!2026 Oulu 市榮選為「歐洲文化首都」,身為 Oulu 市民音樂家的 文宏,將有更多展現的機會!~~~§ 照片:羅文宏 Low Wen Hong§ 文宏和聽眾分享他演奏長號的音樂和影音:Bass Trombone Recital: Lance Low, Winner of Malaysian Wind Music Prize 2021 · The Rondo Productionhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zz5xARy2SDw16:33-18:29§ 北芬蘭 Oulu 北芬蘭 Oulu 交響樂團 官網:https://oulusinfonia.fi/2026 年歐洲文化首都 Oulu 官網:https://oulu2026.eu/en/§ Star Wars: A New Hope 星際大戰,文宏在節目中和聽眾提到的 2022 年 Oulu 市立交響樂團的電影主題音樂會音樂會新聞:https://oulusinfonia.fi/uutiset/star-wars-a-new-hope-elokuvakonsertti-jossa-elokuva-esitetaan-valkokankaalta-ja-orkesteri-soittaa-musiikin-elavana/節目中提到的,大螢幕播出靜音中的電影情節,樂團現場演奏,Youtube 在 阿姆斯特丹 Concertgebouw 由鹿特丹交響樂團演奏的錄影,感覺一下現場震撼的感覺: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UU-W4WqSSH0

Looking for a smarter way to travel and a richer way to live when you get back? We're launching Season Eight with A for Airbnb, sharing how a long road trip through Finland and Norway transformed from a checklist of sights into a string of homes. From a lakeside house with a wood-fired sauna in Puolanka to an RV in the Inari village, from the Arctic Circle at Rovaniemi to Norway's brooding fjords, we used Airbnbs to slow down, meet neighbors, and absorb the quiet routines that define Nordic life.Along the way we chased the northern lights near Levi, learned why Finnish apartments feel so peaceful, and discovered how to spot the small details that make a stay effortless: strong Wi‑Fi, laundry days, clear entry instructions, local tips, and respectful house norms. Historic Kittilä surprised us with an artist-host who kept stories alive along with salvaged wood and open-hearth cooking. Oulu and Turku balanced old-town charm with modern coffee culture and kid-friendly spaces. The big takeaway wasn't a single perfect property; it was how the right stay turns a map into a neighborhood and a night into a lesson you can use at home.We also flip the script and talk about hosting. Back in Waco, our 1916 fixer-upper doubles as an Airbnb where guest nights help fund restoration. We share our playbook for five-star experiences on both sides: how to filter and book smarter, how to be a great guest who communicates and respects the space, and how hosts can elevate comfort with small, thoughtful touches like printed Wi‑Fi, bedside charging, clear guides, and a warm welcome.

Also includes throwback EP 35: Warlung (Phil and George) New Finnish progressive rock band Kuumet prepares to release their debut album this spring. Now they have released the first single "Swithen" from the upcoming album.Listen to the single on music services (Spotify, Apple Music, Deezer, Tidal, Bandcamp etc.) https://push.fm/fl/kuumet-swithenLyricist Janne Koskinen's thoughts about the song:"I was thinking about the state of the world at that time: we had gone from real jungles to concrete jungles, where everyone fights for themselves and their own interests. The common good is just an idea that can be sacrificed, and it doesn't matter if it dies, as long as you get what you want. There is a tired, fatalistic tone to it, now that I think about it.Yes, it reflects on how people today live almost as if it were their last day. The fail-fast business ethic has taken hold in social thinking, and one's own good life is now the most important thing, and it doesn't matter if collective destruction is knocking at the door.What then, if we don't survive? It was such a lovely ride!”Kuumet started in 2019 in the aftermath of a tribute gig for a Finnish prog legend. The band, which was put together at the initiative of Vesa Ranta (ex-Sentenced, The Abbey, Cemetery Skyline), who had once hung up his drum sticks at the time, ended up with players from Oulu, including The Aeon, THJKB and Hietaketu. Musically, Kuumet operates on the more prog side of rock, the songs may be rambling, but avoiding the pitfalls of indulgent gimmickry. The influences are most found in the legacy of the sprawling rock bands of the 1970s and the more melodic side of heavy rock that rose to prominence in the 1990s.The songs also reveal the band's fascination with cinematic expression.Kuumet's debut album Nova depicts the struggle of modern man in time: it contains dystopian images, addictions and death, but also glimpses of hope here and there, whether in the form of a bright exploding supernova or the belief that life continues after man. https://www.instagram.com/kuumet.band/Kuumet @ Facebookhttps://www.youtube.com/@KuumetBand

Kopenhagen gilt als Fahrradhauptstadt Europas. Doch die Stadt Oulu im Nordwesten Finnlands macht ihr durchaus Konkurrenz: Die Stadt ist ein absolutes Paradies für Winterradfahrer - auf sechs Meter breiten Superhighways radeln schon Grundschüler bei Temperaturen weit unter dem Gefrierpunkt und einer dichten Schneedecke problemlos durch die Stadt, berichtet Jana Sinram.

CAISzeit – In welcher digitalen Gesellschaft wollen wir leben?
In dieser Folge der CAISzeit spricht Host Dr. Matthias Begenat mit Samuel T. Simon über Agilität in der Wissenschaft. Gemeinsam diskutieren sie, wie Forschung mit Hilfe agiler Methoden organisiert werden kann, ohne dass Tiefe und wissenschaftliche Gründlichkeit verloren gehen. Außerdem werfen sie einen Blick auf experimentelle Formate und Tools, die gleichzeitig Prozesse strukturieren und Freiräume für interdisziplinäre Forschung schaffen können. Agilität in der Wissenschaft – ist das möglich? Samuel T. Simon argumentiert, dass agile Methoden nicht nur Buzzwords sind, sondern Vorteile für Forschungsprozesse bringen können. Ob bei CERN, NASA oder in der Nachhaltigkeitsforschung: Agile Ansätze können dabei helfen, Prozesse zu optimieren, Teams effizienter zusammenarbeiten zu lassen und Freiräume für die eigentliche Forschung zu schaffen. Dabei geht es vor allem um transparente Kommunikation, klare Strukturen und effiziente Prozesse: Scrum, Kanban und andere Tools machen Projektfortschritte und Zuständigkeiten sichtbar, schaffen Übersicht und ermöglichen eine gemeinsame Sprache. So kann Forschung trotz Agilität weiterhin sorgfältig und wissenschaftlich bleiben. Gleichzeitig erfordert agiles Arbeiten Kompetenzen wie Unsicherheitstoleranz, eine positive Fehlerkultur und transparente Kommunikation sowie eine verantwortliche Prozessbegleitung durch eine:n Facilitator.

In this panel discussion, host Casandra Grundstrom engages with 5 researchers part of a project on assessing the Nordic readiness for the upcoming European Health Data Spaces (EHDS) regulation. As part of the Nordic Health Data Spaces (NHDS) project, we unpack the intentions of the upcoming regulation, and what this means for different stakeholders to navigate a complex policy landscape. We reflect on the technical feasibility of achieving the ambitions of the EHDS and under what conditions value can be realized beyond a portable patient. Finally, we discuss how education can act as an antidote for readiness to the EHDS and present the project-developed MOOC (Massive Open Online Course). The course is free and open to all to take, and takes the learner through the potential of the EHDS in transforming healthcare, research, and digital health.References About the project funder: https://www.interregaurora.eu/ MOOC: https://joy.oulu.fi/en/education-search/introduction-european-health-data-space-avoin-yo DigiCampus: https://digicampus.fi/login/index.php FinData: https://findata.fi/en/ ResearchersMinna Isomursu - University of Oulu, FinlandLine Linstad - eHealth Research Center, NorwayPrabhat Ram - University of Oulu, FinlandKassaye Yitbarek Yigzaw - eHealth Research Center, NorwayLars Öbrand - University of Umeå, Sweden

It's double Nokia this week as our guest is from that company and the lads were also Nokia's guests in Finland recently. Special guest Bjorn Capens is from Belgium and he brought over a selection of beers typical to that country. So they start by going though those before getting into Bjorn's day job at Nokia, which focuses on fixed broadband networks, covering the history of broadband and the latest fixed network technology developments and market trends. They eventually get on to Iain and Scott's visit to Oulu in northern Finland, where Nokia has just opened an impressive new wireless technology campus, before briefly reflecting on Oracle's impressive recent earnings.

Do your knees hurt when you stand up? Are you losing range of motion in your hips? Have you been told you have osteoarthritis—but left without real guidance or solutions? You're not alone. When I was first diagnosed with hip osteoarthritis, I didn't even know what it meant. A quick online search gave me generic advice like “lose weight,” which as an athletic person was the last thing I needed to do. Maybe you're in the same boat—searching for better answers. That's why I invited Professor Ali Mobasheri to the show. He's one of the world's leading experts on osteoarthritis, aging, and joint health—and in this conversation, he breaks down what we really need to know about OA and can we reverse it, especially during midlife and menopause. We cover: What osteoarthritis actually is and how it differs from other types of arthritis and osteoporosis Why osteoarthritis is not just a “wear and tear” condition How widespread osteoarthritis truly is—and why the numbers are underestimated How menopause influences joint health and increases OA risk Why younger adults are increasingly being diagnosed Whether it's possible to reverse osteoarthritis Which treatments and holistic strategies are most promising Why research around hormone therapy and OA is still lacking Professor Ali Mobasheri is a globally recognized expert in musculoskeletal biology and osteoarthritis research. He is a Professor of Musculoskeletal Biology at the University of Oulu in Finland and a Past President of the Osteoarthritis Research Society International (OARSI). Chief Researcher & International Adviser at the State Research Institute Centre for Innovative Medicine in Lithuania He is an active member of the International Cartilage Regeneration & Joint Preservation Society (ICRS). His research explores the intersection of inflammation, metabolism, and joint aging, with a focus on early diagnosis and prevention. He also serves as an adviser to the World Health Organization and sits on numerous scientific advisory boards, including those focused on osteoarthritis, osteoporosis, and regenerative medicine. He has published over 400 scientific papers and holds an h-index of 78—an extraordinary achievement in academic research.

Dr. Anna Krzywoszynska is a social scientist at the University of Oulu in Finland who studies how farmers and scientists can collaborate to foster regenerative agriculture. An expert on soil knowledge and values, with experience farming organically in Italy, Dr. Krzywoszynska examines the knowledge systems shaping food production. Currently, she's investigating how to transform agricultural research to support local communities, including turning research stations into hubs for collaboration between farmers and scientists. Her projects aim to align scientific inquiry with local needs, promoting community-driven innovation and sustainable land use. In this episode, John and Anna discuss: How farmers see soil as a resource to manage, while scientists seek broad, universal insights. How academic and agri-business structures favor research on general trends over practical, local farming solutions. The community's role in regenerative agriculture, enabling farmers to learn and innovate together. Research stations as potential community hubs integrating local farmers needs into science. Regenerative agriculture's ability to restore hope and reconnect farmers with nature. Celebrating mistakes as essential for learning and growth in farming.
