Episode description

LaSemo, creating a sustainable and human festival

In the traditional media, even a sustainable festival like LaSemo often has little time to express itself, a few minutes, sometimes less. 
Under these conditions, it is difficult to convey the complexity of a project, its history, its values.

In this episode of the hrmeetup. © podcast, produced by The Podcast Factory Org and recorded at transforma bxl in Brussels, we made another choice:
Take your time...

  • Take the time to come back to LaSemo.

  • Take the time to understand what has been built around it.

  • Take the time to listen to a journey.

At our microphone, Samuel Chappel shares his journey as a cultural entrepreneur, he evokes the beginnings, the mistakes, the moments of doubt, but also the learnings and the trajectory that has allowed LaSemo to become a project that is now widely recognized.

The conversation remains simple, direct, without detour.
It talks about culture, commitment, the collective, what makes a project last in the long term.

One idea comes back forcefully: culture is emotions, moments that mark, experiences that remain.

LaSemo is also volunteers, committed teams, artists and an ecosystem that participate in creating something unique.
A space where different generations meet, where links are created, where the experience goes beyond the simple event.

This episode deliberately goes beyond the usual format because some projects deserve more than a few minutes, and because the podcast allows precisely that: to go further.
