[silence] WorldChanging: Podcast Series with Jennifer Leonard

[Ralph Lichtensteiger]

Launching Worldchanging's New Podcast Series with Jennifer Leonard
Welcome to my podcast, Worldchangers! It’s about the world of design  
and the design of the world. It’s about live dialogue with creative  
thinkers and doers the world over. It’s about change and how we ride  
it into a better tomorrow. I’m calling it 4’33”, taking inspiration  
from John Cage’s notorious (same-named) composition. His 4’33” was  
essentially a timeframe of four minutes and thirty-three seconds in  
which whatever sounds ‘happened’ were exactly the right sounds for  
that place and time. My first podcast is one of six field recordings  
from a recent design conference I attended in Belgium called Luminous  
Green. Most of the recordings I did outdoors, so you’ll hear  
environmental clamor, like church bells and lawn mowers, as well as  
natural sounds, like chirping birds and gusts of wind. Rather than  
diminish the found sounds within the context of a more formal  
interview, I’ve decided to embrace them. And I will continue to do  
so. Most of the interviews here on out I aim to do outside of a  
recording studio, in the appropriate context of the moment, with all  
the appropriate sounds that go along with it.
