Words
Hello & welcome back,
There are moments when everything is so intense that we need to stop and process it. That’s what happened over here. Feels good to know that you were missing our weekly info pack and be sure that we are here, ready to work even harder.
There were loads of thoughts on how to make things better and more interactive and we’re back with ideas for the summer and for the new season. We’ll take it easy over the festival rush and be ready with new tricks in autumn. In the meantime, we have a few new Stories ready to be published, for the long-read enthusiasts.
We also encourage you to contribute if you feel like you want to. We are happy to support the inner journalist in you, to publish your poetry or opinion on music, technology, industry... We are able to take critique and learn from mistakes, so please don’t hesitate to comment and correct our perspective. A healthy dialogue, respectful disagreement and the search for common goals between different opinions is the key to good content and a strong community.
And the last result of the break is the political approach. More like - less of it. My mind got broken by the nonsensical madness in today’s politics. Serious issues are covered with a sewage of hate and conspiracies, institutions are dismantled by incompetence and greed, and generally - it’s not fun anymore. Therefore I decided to focus on things we can change, to make sure when all this madness blows apart, we have some plan to fix what's broken.
As a dreamer, I see the chaos as an opportunity to re-design and re-think towards better days. The brighter future soundtrack is here.
Thank you for reading and stay connected
Miro
