Data-powered Innovation Jam

This season, we go global, exploring how data fuels innovation at the intersection of technology, culture, music, and society. Hosts Robert Engels and Marie Jansen kick things off with a fresh perspective on what 2026 really means: not just AI and high tech, but ethics, psychology, geopolitics, sustainability, and the human rhythms behind the data.

From encrypted computing to global automation, from Milan’s disco influence to Mumbai’s urban pulse, each episode is a jam session, less documentation, more authentic insight. Expect sharp thinking, global voices, fun facts, and a beat that keeps the conversation moving.

Because data without culture is just noise. Let’s find the signal together.
