Robyn Landau is an artist and researcher who explores creativity through a cross-modal approach. The focus of her work in the growing science of Neuroaesthetics unpacks the influence of creativity, flow and aesthetic experience on wellbeing. She believes creativity is a fundamental component of life, with broad impacts on happiness, motivation and pleasure. As a dancer, ceramicist and Kundalini Yoga practitioner, she fuses these organic and energetic schools of thought into her research. Her background in music, media and branding makes these concepts applicable, for tangibly felt impacts for individuals and organisations. She runs workshops and seminars across London which provide practical tools to optimise creativity, exploring contributing factors and key processes for enhancement. Robyn works on corporate programmes and creativity flow research at State On Demand.
Ariana Alexander- Sefre describes herself as, ‘a curious creature who loves adventures, fitness, live music and discovering new and exciting things’. She set up her first events business aged 19, ‘running what was probably a very illegal music-gig and club night operation in Bristol’. She would cycle home at 4 am with thousands of pounds of cash in her bag having very little idea what she was doing but knowing she loved creating experiences. Since then, and over the past 9 years, Ariana has worked with companies including Nike, Coca-Cola, Citi Private Bank, Sofar Sounds and various tech startups and investment firms, managing everything from tiny grassroots events to ultra high net worth corporate events.
