In this captivating episode, Berlin-based visual artist and urban practitioner Alona Rodeh takes us deep into the heart of the nocturnal city. Known for her immersive installations and advocacy for darkness preservation, Rodeh shares her journey from theater scenography to public art, blending light, sound, and urban research.

🌃 Highlights Include:

  • 🔦 The paradox of safety and surveillance in overlit cities
  • 🚶‍♀️ Her meditative “night walks” through Berlin’s dimly lit parks
  • 🕯️ The primal connection between humans and firelight vs. the harshness of LED glare
  • 🏙️ Berlin’s unique lighting culture—gas lamps, sodium lights, and intentional dimness
  • 🎨 Her acclaimed Nightcaps project: sculptural interventions on street lamps to combat light pollution
  • 📱 A powerful critique of screen addiction and the fading peripheral awareness in urban life

💡 Rodeh’s insights challenge conventional beliefs about light and safety, inviting listeners to reimagine darkness not as danger, but as depth, freedom, and cultural richness.
