We end this year with Leonoor Opstelten, a young researcher who used improvisation and music as an experimental approach for her thesis on forest and nature conservation. With this approach, she won the Birgit Elands thesis prize just a few weeks ago.
In her thesis, she included five piano pieces accompanying five different storylines - patterns and themes that resulted from her research.
Let's listen to the research, its story, and the beautiful music.
