Daniella Atkinson On Becoming, Content & Inspired Action

It began as a passion project among friends who were single; seeing a different way to meet people and the limitations of dating apps motivated me to showcase real personalities in the city and spark genuine conversations.
Agasha Mutesasira on Accessibility, Opportunities & Navigating Creative Opportunities

Music has given her a space to process emotions and build deep connections, serving as a catalyst for growth, resilience, and community. She highlights how open interactions with other creatives inspire new ideas and energy.
Agasha Mutesasira on Accessibility, Opportunities & Navigating Creative Opportunities
Q: What inspired your shift in mindset around sharing your art and its accessibility?
She discusses learning to embrace her work after release, moving away from worrying about how others might perceive it, and choosing to post for depth and meaningful impact rather than virality.
Agasha Mutesasira on Accessibility, Opportunities & Navigating Creative Opportunities
Q: Take us back to that time in your life. What happened?
Agasha describes sustaining a spinal cord tumor at 12, which left her paralyzed from the waist down and made many spaces inaccessible. She explains how her family adapted the home and how the early realization of inaccessibility shaped her path toward advocacy and music.
Mikey Jose on The Nervous System, Music & Mindset
Q: What has surprised you in your research or observations about music and the brain, especially regarding different individuals or conditions like Parkinson's?
One surprising finding is the heterogeneity within conditions like Parkinson's—participants come with diverse backgrounds and experiences, which shapes how music affects them, highlighting the need for personalized approaches to using music in therapeutic contexts.
