welcome to another collection of zeroes and ones intertwined with brainsparks, The Nexialist hey, folks! these days have been feeling like a vortex around here, so i’ll keep the intro short and the nexialist more like an (affectionate) quickie. wish me luck with work, my dutch tests and the shorter days. thank you for reading, loving and sharing. 🫀 1 year ago » exactly one year ago, i took a break from the nexialist because the right half of my face was paralyzed due to a condition called bell’s palsy (apparently justin bieber also had it recently). it was quite a process to heal from it: it took 3 months for me to start seeing any improvements and now i’m so much better. even if my face changed with that situation, i can say i’m definitely stronger than before. i know this sounds cliché, but it is the reality. i can appreciate small things like being able to smile, and listen and care for my body in a different way than before. just wanted to share this as a way to remember how things change in a weird way. 🇮🇷Iranian girls and women![]() A girls' school in Iran brought a member of the IRGC-run Basij paramilitary to speak to students. The girls welcomed the speaker by taking off their headscarves & chanting "get lost, Basiji". Teenage girls have been at the forefront of protests for days. i get chills when i see these videos because they remind us of the power of women and girls in creating change. of course, the situation is not to be romanticized. these are intense protests that have been going on for weeks and people are being killed. but there is something so powerful and inspiring in seeing this. the spark it brings is about shifting structures.
Read: What Video Footage Reveals About the Protests in Iran | The New York Times 📿evangelical missionaries x indigenous peopleit upsets me so much that this dynamic is still very much alive in my country. i can’t help but look at it as a dystopia: the smile that the pastor puts on when he says there is no limit to the growth of the church outright scared me. we talk about decolonizing, thinking we “just” need to “undo” things that happened in the past, perhaps forgetting it is still in offense in 2022. 🍑nudathank you, Eta, for sharing this. Lina Simons is an italo-nigerian rapper based in london. i think it’s the first time i hear someone singing in neopolitan dialect, and the video is supercool. also, nuda means naked. 🕸spray-on dresstalking about naked, the internet was going bonkers over this coperni spray-on dress. it is so impressive and magical to see art, technology and fashion converging in one moment.

Your feedback is highly appreciated, you can e-mail me or fill in this short survey. Thank you! 🙏🏻🔌Let’s Collab?I truly believe innovation comes from bringing improbable areas together, and that’s why I called this project The Nexialist. Some sectors are known to be self-referencing and hermetic. Sometimes teams are on autopilot mode, focused on the daily grind, which hinders innovation. As a Nexialist, I like to burst these bubbles, bringing references from different areas, and maintaining teams inspired and connected to the Zeitgeist. I offer inspiration sessions, called Brainsparks, creative desk research (Zeitgeist Boost), Plug’n’Play deals for workshops and sprints, and other Bespoke formats. If you want to know more about this, send me an e-mail with your challenge(s) and we can figure something out together.
