Hello! My name is Olivia Bianchi, I am currently in a MSc program called VMMA (Visual, Material, Museum Anthropology) at the University of Oxford (I already have an undergraduate in Social Anthro as well). My interest have previously been queerness and deviant relationship forms, and are currently evolving more towards (new) materialism and environmental themes. I also work in textiles and plan on taking my next research into a affect/care/material (textile) direction. I am based in Switzerland. I have read the book 'Forest Lost' by Maron Greenleaf for a book review of the Anthropology Department of the University of Oxford and would love to do a NBN episode with her. I have previous podcast experience from my old department (ISEK UZH), on spotify titled 'Anthropolitical' - also interview episodes with department researchers. Looking forward to hear from you. Best, Olivia
