In this episode, the PodPast team successfully establishes a connection to the year 2022 to speak with Kai Lehikoinen, a university researcher specializing in socially engaged arts practices at Uniarts Helsinki, Finland. During the conversation, Kai will provide significant insights into the complex and multi-faceted relationships between arts and society, including the relation between artistic freedom and artistic activism, and new fields the arts might enter in the future.

Note: This podcast was created by School of Commons at the FAST45 Footnotes Summer School, where we experimented with Live Action Role-Play as a method for Futures Thinking. The podcast explores possible futures of the arts, arts education and institutions of higher arts education. As it is part of Live Action Role-Play and Futures Thinking, most content presented is speculative in nature.
