Episode Synopsis "The Youtopia Series - Teaser Trailer"
My name is Lauren-Lois - currently I’m studying a Master's in Architecture, and I’m excited to share this mini-series with you. More information + resources can be found on http://youtopia.online Contact me via [email protected], or find me on Instagram @larchitiste. TRANSCRIPT: You’re probably wondering what this podcast is all about, it began as the research topic for my master’s thesis, but I decided to switch the format from pen, to paper, to audio. I created this podcast as a tool for visualising Youtopia in tomorrow’s society, I’m analysing architecture at points of social change, and observing the ways we design places as a result of that. It’s youtopia not utopia because in an ideal society, the spaces we build and design should be reflective of you, and whatever identity you represent. This is architecture for social empowerment, and social equality. I’ve got a couple of guests that are gonna help me along the way, these guests have been chosen because they’ve organised protests, they’re disrupting educational barriers, they’ve created campaigns, they’re forming networks...They’re going to share their stories, challenges, achievements, and aspirations; and we’re just going to discuss how the work they do positively disrupts the ‘system’ and creates opportunities for change. Hopefully, this inspires listeners to tap into their own fields and interests to create Youtopias of their own.
