  • Supervox + other circle 006: Karl-Oskar Olsen 05.11.2026 22m
    From Wood Wood to Pas NormalKarl-Oskar joins us at other circle in Copenhagen to talk about his Swedish name, chosen after Max von Sydow’s character in Utvandrarna, his childhood between Sweden and Denmark, and how that connection still runs through his family. He shares his path from graduating the Danish Royal Academy of Design in 2002 to co-founding Wood Wood as a creative platform blending street culture, graphics and global city influences, and later launching Pas Normal Studios to bring his cycling background into performance apparel. He reflects on learning through mistakes, framing creativity, and building a company with clear roles alongside co-founder Peter. We also talk about balancing function with style, the brand’s distinctive color DNA, the realities of materials like GORE-TEX, why brands can’t “own” community, and the thinking behind collaborations like Pas Normal x Salomon.Episode 006 is hosted by Richard Feigin
  • Supervox + other circle 005: Fredrik Paulsen 28.10.2026 32m
    Design Is PeopleHe traces his path from a potter grandfather’s DIY inventiveness and a skateboarding childhood in rural Skåne to cabinet-making school in Grebbestad, furniture design at Beckmans, and the Royal College of Art in London, where gallery culture shaped his thinking.Back in Stockholm he created Örnsbergsauktionen, part group show, auction and party, which helped kickstart a collectible design scene by building the context he felt was missing. We discuss interiors like Omnipollo’s brewery in a former church, using colour as a three-dimensional material to highlight architecture and construction, and his modular Joy Objects system in aluminium and acrylic, designed from his own vision of a holistic  product and brand language.In Copenhagen Fredrik Paulsen talks about Other Circle as a family-like meeting point and why, for him, the main function of design is people, life and the context around objects. He also shares a one-off collaboration with Emma Clarke, combining Joy Objects aluminium frames with her experimental wood, urushi lacquer and washi-based seats and backs.There is no doubt Fredrik’s appetite for bringing people together guides him in whatever he lays his hands on.For our ongoing podcast series, made in collaboration with SUPERVOX, we talk to creatives about their practice. All episodes are recorded at other circle in 2026.Episode 005 is hosted by Richard Feigin.

  • Photographer Zanele Muholy and Hasselblad Award 2026 recipient 21.10.2026 40m
    A conversation between South African photographer and visual activist Zanele Muholi and Astrid Birnbaum, recorded in Stockholm inside Faces and Phases: The Stockholm Edition at Eva Livijns Art Space (curated by Ulrika Flink), alongside a larger presentation at the Hasselblad Center in Gothenburg. Muholi reflects on receiving the Hasselblad Award 2026 as recognition for the communities whose stories they’ve documented, and traces an artistic journey shaped by township life under apartheid, activism, and the need for respectful, positive representation. They discuss why “any space is a space” if collaborators are safe and respected, and how showing work in a home can feel warmer and less intimidating than institutions. Muholi shares how Faces and Phases formally grew from personal and collective loss, expands through international collaborations including Black Queer Sweden, and explains Somnyama Ngonyama as self-portraiture, healing, ancestry, and language, where titles arrive through meaning, memory, and time.
  • Nicolai Nørregaard, Kadeau: Crafting three stars 20.10.2026 24m
    The plates are designed by him. So is the glasware. Nicolai Nørregaard designs a new set of ceramics every year with people he has known for a long time. The glassware is made inhouse too. We went to Copenhagen for a chat with him in the test kitchen at Kadeau. This is a talk about craft and about a chef who refuses to stay in the kitchen.He just got his third Michelin star. We wanted to know what really goes on behind it.It starts on the walls. Old dishes stay up as a reference library. The menu changes twice a year and every new idea has to stand next to what came before. It is a hard cycle and he runs it without shortcuts.Nicolai is CEO and creative director. He shapes the flavor, the plating and the room around it. In collaboration with V1 Gallery, artists come to Bornholm for residencies and their work is installed in the restaurant with the seasons.Twice a year it all shifts together. Food, plates, glass, art and interiors. A new feeling every time, but always rooted in the island.Bornholm is where it comes from. Smokehouses, preservation, gardens and a deep craft tradition. Cooking became his fastest way to make something. You can taste it right away.
