  • S4 Ep3: Chris Rudd
    Sep 24 2021
    Chris Rudd is an activist, educator, and design leader. Built on his commitment to community organizing, social equity work, systems change, and youth development, Chris founded ChiByDesign, a Black-owned and people-of-color-led design firm in Chicago. In addition to leading ChiByDesign, Chris is also an Instructor and Lead of Community-led Design for the Chicago Design Lab at the Illinois Institute of Technology Institute of Design, where his work focuses on developing the co-design practice and the anti-racist design field. Chris is a former Stanford Institute of Design (d.school) Civic Innovation fellow and a current Chicago Urban League IMPACT fellow.

    Chris is dad to three daughters: ages 15, 6 and 3.

    In this episode, Chris talks about how his strong socio-political views were forged in an interacial household with activist parents and the countless ways this world view manifests in his children's lives and his own anti-racism work. Chris shares some larger-than-life stories about his father and the working class wisdom he imparted when Chris became a dad at 22. Chris discusses his time at Standford's d.school, the limits of human-centered design, and why he ignored the allure of startup culture and Silicon Valley to remain committed to place-based social innovation in Chicago. Finally, we talk about the connections and similarities between leading (and serving) community projects, a creative consultancy, and one's own family.

  • S4 Ep2: Johan Bävman
    Sep 25 2020
    Since devising his own independent photography curriculum in high school, Johan Bävman's passion for image making led him to the Nordic School of Photography, a coveted spot on the Moment Agency roster, and a full-time staff position in editorial photography with Sydsvenskan, one of Sweden's largest newspapers. Now 100% independent, Johan splits his time between client assignments, personal projects and gallery work. When he needs a needed break from photography and family life, Johan restores vintage motorcycles at Odd Luck Garage, a collaboration with 13 other fathers.

    Johan is dad to two sons: ages 8 & 4.

    In this episode, Johan talks about the myriad roles photography's played in his life and career: as a connection to his grandfather, an invitation to embed himself in other cultures, a narrative device for storytelling, and as solution for his dyslexia—allowing him to express himself without the burden of the written word. Johan also talks at length about Swedish Dads, a collection of photographs he self-published in 2016 documenting 45 Swedish men who took advantage of the country's generous parental leave system. Capturing the mundane, beautiful and often lonesome moments of fatherhood, the images, book and exhibit continues to help change policy, shift cultural attitudes, and advocate for gender equality and the rights of women and children.

    His photographs are currently on exhibit at Chicago's Swedish American Museum now through November.
