Floating Space – According to the sociologist Ray Oldenburg, all of us need a ‘third’ space beyond our home and work. What is one? “It’s a place to gather easily, inexpensively, regularly, and pleasurably. Somewhere neutral, you can socialize, interact, and just be,” explains podcaster Katie Stokes, the host of this informative and intricate mini documentary series looking at ‘third spaces’.
Part of this series provides inspiration to find your own third space, from outdoor parks to artist collectives, whilst the other part looks at why such spaces are all the more rare due to capitalism and the cost of living crisis.
