Students did collaborative research projects to find and tell stories behind topics of their choice and the people connected to them. They brought their guests to the\u00a0<em>Conversation Room<\/em>, facilitated dialogues around them, discussed the media possibilities, technical aspects, and history of the podcast media, and engaged the production of episodes for the series. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-secondary-color has-text-color\">Four podcast episodes were developed as the result of these collaborations across disciplines. Their point of departure are the dialogues students held in the\u00a0sound sculpture, excerpts of which will continue to be heard in campus when walking by it. However, by developing podcasts to circulate online, the course allowed the conversations to reach a wider audience in the public space of the web. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left has-secondary-color has-text-color\">As a whole, the project hopes to make visible challenging, and unique stories and perspectives on contemporary life that students deem worth discussing and that might otherwise pass unnoticed. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-luminous-vivid-orange-color has-text-color\"><br>***<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-container-21 wp-block-columns\">\n<div class=\"wp-container-19 wp-block-column\" style=\"flex-basis:50%\">\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left has-text-color\" style=\"color:#83a1bf\">Squirrel Nest\u2019s Second Season, in 2022, is possible thanks to UWAS, the University-Wide Art Studies, and Aalto Studios technical support.<br><br><em>All our gratitude goes to Ariel Bustamante for welcoming this project into the <\/em>Conversation Room <em>and all the support he provided us along the way.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-container-20 wp-block-column\" style=\"flex-basis:50%\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignright size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/podcast.aalto.fi\/squirrelsnest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/IMG_2895-754x1080.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-592\" width=\"290\" height=\"415\" srcset=\"https:\/\/podcast.aalto.fi\/squirrelsnest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/IMG_2895-754x1080.jpg 754w, https:\/\/podcast.aalto.fi\/squirrelsnest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/IMG_2895-357x512.jpg 357w, https:\/\/podcast.aalto.fi\/squirrelsnest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/IMG_2895-768x1100.jpg 768w, https:\/\/podcast.aalto.fi\/squirrelsnest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/IMG_2895-1072x1536.jpg 1072w, https:\/\/podcast.aalto.fi\/squirrelsnest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/IMG_2895-1430x2048.jpg 1430w, https:\/\/podcast.aalto.fi\/squirrelsnest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/IMG_2895-scaled.jpg 1787w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 290px) 100vw, 290px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left has-text-color\" style=\"color:#83a6c5\">Original concept and curatorial project : Mar\u00eda Villa<br>Audio design, edition, and technical support : Camilo S\u00e1nchez, Lassi Savola\u00a0(A-Pod)<br>Research, sound design, and original work from : Aino Kostiainen, Diana Dzurillov\u00e1, Heta-Maria Pyh\u00e4j\u00e4rvi, Jana Pufflerov\u00e1, Jihae Kim, Marius Augustin, and Vilis Zuromskis.<br>Mastering and podcast publication : Pasi Pelkonen and Jon Fabritius at Aalto Studios<br>Special thanks to Edel O&#8217;Reilly, the Aalto curator, for supporting the course and the use of the sculpture during the spring 2022.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"excerpt","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":1,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"episode_type":"","audio_file":"","cover_image":"","cover_image_id":"","duration":"","filesize":"","date_recorded":"","explicit":"","block":"","itunes_episode_number":"","itunes_title":"","itunes_season_number":"","itunes_episode_type":"","filesize_raw":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/podcast.aalto.fi\/squirrelsnest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/293"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/podcast.aalto.fi\/squirrelsnest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/podcast.aalto.fi\/squirrelsnest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/podcast.aalto.fi\/squirrelsnest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/4"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/podcast.aalto.fi\/squirrelsnest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=293"}],"version-history":[{"count":28,"href":"https:\/\/podcast.aalto.fi\/squirrelsnest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/293\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":593,"href":"https:\/\/podcast.aalto.fi\/squirrelsnest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/293\/revisions\/593"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/podcast.aalto.fi\/squirrelsnest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=293"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
