There was more to talk about than we could fit in one episode. So here is part two! Who did Daan look up to when he was a student? How can you and I proactively create this Protopia? What if I want to run my own studio? What if I don’t? Also, Russian literature, Greek philosophy and chairs. All in one episode. We hope you enjoy our conversation, we sure did!
