Design Alchemy
Design Alchemy is the podcast that explores creativity in flux. Designers and other creatives talk about how they respond to shifts in the world and in their practice, through an alchemic lens: what is their Unobtainium, the dreams that keep them up at night? But also: what is their Kryptonite — their creative roadblocks?

Roel Wouters and Luna Maurer (both formerly studio Moniker) talk about their transformation of their practices from being digital pioneers and internet enthusiasts to more critical approaches towards digital environments. Recently, they have taken an interest in what they call ‘designing friction, or in their own words: ‘In which ways can we use technology in order to have more qualities that make us human, and emphasize those?’.

John Wegner talks about his experiences with learning and education, both as a student and as a design educator. He reflects back on his participation in the Summer Sessions, a summerschool organised by Graphic Design Arnhem in Mexico City in 2016 and what that experience brought him.
Monika Gruzite talks about her practice as a designer and educator. The conversation starts with NXS, a magazine about what it means to live in the digital age, and then moves to her experiences as a design educator, a position that started in the midst of the global COVID-19 pandemic of 2020-2021.
Joris Maltha (and Daniel Gross in the background) from Catalogtree talk about curiosity and method, which seem to be the driving forces behind their work as a graphic design studio, as well as the name for a class they both teach. How is it to be ‘typecasted’ (pun intended) as a graphic designer and how to get rid of that, and allow oneself to remain open to change and transformation?
Remco van Bladel talks about the transformation of his practice as a more-or-less traditional graphic designer primarily known for his book designs, to a designer of information systems, ‘slow A.I.’, design education and what he calls ‘archival consciousness’. www.archivalconsciousness.org https://remcovanbladel.nl/list
