Ocean Wants: Ocean Nation, featuring Markus Reymann

While the land is ruled by nations and super nations, the ocean is subject to the tragedy of the commons. What if the ocean would turn into a nation of its own – the largest nation in the world? In the tenth and final episode of the podcast Ocean Wants, our host, speculative writer Ingo NIermann talks to Markus Reymann, director of TBA21–Academy and its venue Ocean Space in Venice. Ocean Wants is a series of ten podcasts that playfully explores how nonhumans could like our planet to be. Conceived and hosted by Ingo Niermann, Ocean Wants was commissioned to celebrate TBA21–Academy’s tenth Anniversary. Commissioned and produced by TBA21–Academy Conceived, hosted, and edited by Ingo Niermann Music composed and arranged by Ville Haimala Intro read by Joan Jonas Credits read by Staci Bu Shea Sound edited by Robin Michel Produced by Ingo Niermann and María Montero Sierra
